[hallow solar]

See this is why you go in order

[orchid spire]

fr? i though absrad on radiant would be easier than radkoth

[raw sonnet]

bro why is radaint gruzmother so annoying

[fiery trench]

cuz radiant

[raw sonnet]

fauir

[fiery trench]

ok, think of it like this
Rad AbsRad would be easier
if she didnt completely overshadow him in terms of length

[orchid spire]

ok true

[whole vortex]

i beat absrad in hog holy

[fiery trench]

nice

[orchid spire]

ive done all bosses on raidant apart from oblobbles, markoth and absrad (i cant even get the last 2 on ascended)

[whole vortex]

whoever told to to pogo at phase 4 tysm

[light stirrup]

YOOOOO THANK YOUUUUUU

[hallow solar]

Oblobbles isn’t that hard

It’s bad sure

But not thaaaaaat bad

[whole vortex]

oblobbles in rad is a night mare for me

[molten yoke]

It is bad

[hallow solar]

Not like even watcher knights

[queen lodge]

She is prolly

[hallow solar]

Oblobbles is bad

[molten yoke]

Not ridiculously bad, but it’s js rng hell

[hallow solar]

But not radkoth level

[orchid spire]

watcher knights was fun asf on radiant

[sturdy finch]

oblobbles rad seems like it would be worst than rad markoth

[fiery trench]

yknow, I think Imma wait before doing any more covers
for my own mental sanity's sake
-# whatever of it is left anyways

[molten yoke]

It’s not. It’s really not. Markoth is SO MUCH WORSE

[light stirrup]

PEAK

[hallow solar]

Don’t listen to everybody who says to equalize oblobbles health

[whole vortex]

i raged a bit but it was fun indeed

[molten yoke]

OMG NICE

[hallow solar]

Just rush one because phase 2 is so much easier

[whole vortex]

wth

[raw sonnet]

mod

[whole vortex]

ye but still

what kind of mod

[queen lodge]

I'm so close

[light stirrup]

pale court charms

[orchid spire]

you know ever since i got this game i was like yeah im gonna do every possible challenge and i think ill probably stop at p5 all bindings because it seems so painful

[fiery trench]

fuck it
imma do a rando with a gun

but to make it interesting I’m only allowed to use the gun

[whole vortex]

sick

does anyone know why when i go to hk's previous version to play with mods, my save files aren't there ?

[light stirrup]

marissa!

[orchid spire]

do it.

[light stirrup]

do what?

[hallow solar]

do not the Marissa!

[orchid spire]

you know what

[light stirrup]

know what

[hallow solar]

Don’t kill her!

Marissa the goat

[light stirrup]

how would i do it anyways

[whole vortex]

!wiki marmu

[orchid spire]

dream nail

[fiery trench]

hey
should I do split rando as well?

[violet flicker]

https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Marmu

[light stirrup]

what is that

[fiery trench]

left/right dash and claw are individual drops

[light stirrup]

yeah, there's no way anyone doing that

[pearl sage]

I never got the Mr. Mushroom ending

Forgot about it

[orchid spire]

you know whats funny is that when you dream nail ghosts in hollow knight youre actually freeing them, not killing them. their memories would just never disappear, so its funny when people beg me not to dreamnail them.

[molten yoke]

People do. It’s kinda cool

[light stirrup]

I just know that you use this excuse to justify your crimes

[orchid spire]

(i needed that one essence)

[light stirrup]

dreamnailing them traps them in your dreamnail. i dont think anyone would be willing to get trapped in someone's weapon

[heavy vale]

while this is true, never dream nail marissa

[light stirrup]

lemme guess. you're the son of microsoft's ceo?

[orchid spire]

whenever i get to marissa i always call up my friend and edge the dream nail animation on her for like 10 minutes while he begs me to stop its the funniest thing

[queen lodge]

"AND THAT ONES STILL GREEN"

[heavy vale]

LMAOO

[prime dew]

I beat pantheon 5!

[fiery trench]

420 geo rock in kings pass
cool

[orchid spire]

congrats

[queen lodge]

Congrats brother

[heavy vale]

oh good job

[prime dew]

Ngl that was way easier than I thought lol

[light stirrup]

i dont wanna kill him. he looks friendly

[fiery trench]

and I got cdash

[queen lodge]

I've come so far from the idiot who struggled with greenpath hornet

[light stirrup]

GG dude!

[prime dew]

[prime dew]

Ty

[molten yoke]

Don’t do it then

[heavy vale]

[queen lodge]

He's for the hunter journal though

[orchid spire]

you dont have enough geo to not kill him...

[whole vortex]

!wiki soul tyrant

[violet flicker]

https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Soul_Tyrant

[queen lodge]

@light stirrup Use greed when you kill him if you have it (i forget if he gives more but i think it does)

[orchid spire]

how many hours does everyone have on the game

[queen lodge]

Too many lol

[orchid spire]

ill start i have 185

[heavy vale]

uncountable amounts since like 2018

[queen lodge]

Over 200 in main run

[light stirrup]

269 hours

[raw sonnet]

100 hours and something

[light stirrup]

I wish I could get that

[orchid spire]

oh my god the music

[tribal tide]

isnt it peak

[orchid spire]

so peak

[tribal tide]

best mod ever

[fiery trench]

ok I need 22 grubs for wings

[tribal tide]

altho i only use it for the bosses since i want the areas to be normal

[fiery trench]

welp I got world sense

[frozen storm]

Definitely

[frozen storm]

Very useful indeed

[worthy peak]

750 roughly

[orchid spire]

god damn

[fiery trench]

thank u pre-mawlek room

[worthy peak]

... im so envious

my last rando never gave me dash

[fiery trench]

I have about 45 less hrs on pc

welp I died to mawlek

[frozen storm]

That's a geo rock iirc

[frozen storm]

Was it steel soul?

[worthy peak]

:(

[fiery trench]

oh fuck no
its just annoying to die to Mawlek

and I just lost all my geo cuz I landed on a gruzzer

[frozen storm]

Oh ok that's better

[worthy peak]

do randos let you do steel soul?

[fiery trench]

there goes all 520+ of my geo

[frozen storm]

Just delete the save if you die

[orchid spire]

oh true cus its a different mode

[worthy peak]

I guess all thats required is turning off shade skips i guess

[limpid jungle]

Question, was my mantis lord fight bugged, or are they supposed to only do first longnail spin attack, second longnail spin attack, and then double dive, and repeat this pattern until the fight becomes a 1v1 again

[worthy peak]

yeah. but like some things wont be possible on steel soul

[hallow solar]

just beat ascendedkoth woohoo

[stark marlin]

maybe just sick rng

[limpid jungle]

That was no RNG, I refuse to believe that

idk if the placement of the spin attacks was always the same, but I don't believe they'd do the same three attacks in a row constantly

[orchid spire]

god i need the silksong dlc so baaddddd

[sturdy finch]

has anyone here played mario wonder before

[rustic salmon]

yo, i have the inverse of that

[orchid spire]

[orchid spire]

can you explain what everything in your user name means

[light stirrup]

ik

[manic pebble]

Has anyone else noticed that the Crystal Peaks theme shares a motif with Once Upon a Time from Undertale?

[queen lodge]

212% = 112% HK 100% SS P5= Pantheon 5 PoP2/2 = HK PoP and the SS PoP equivalent and HoG asc = all bosses in HoG done on ascendant

[queen lodge]

It does?

[orchid spire]

oh ok

[warm aurora]

I have a similair opposite with Herb where he has only absrad rad and alle else not (even attuned afaik)
And I have allrad except absrad is still attuned

[orchid spire]

silksong path of pain equivalent tho? what?

[queen lodge]

Yeah

[sturdy finch]

path of minor inconvinience

[manic pebble]

Well, 3 notes but the Crystal Peaks theme only has like 6 that loop

[queen lodge]

There's a PoP equivalent in ss

[orchid spire]

where

[sturdy finch]

in act 3

[warm aurora]

Yes but not nearly as difficult

[orchid spire]

the far fields bellway or?

[warm aurora]

No

[queen lodge]

SS spoilers ||act3 part of passing of the age||

[orchid spire]

spoiler for ss||if you silksoar above gms hand||

[hallow solar]

[hallow solar]

GET SHADE SOULED LOSER

HAHAHAHAHA

PATHETIC.

@queen lodge

[queen lodge]

Nice

[hallow solar]

funnest radiant clear yet

i unironically like markoth a lot more after that

[queen lodge]

What kinda messed up prank

[queen lodge]

https://tenor.com/view/why-is-he-lying-wong-gif-5558347777370316415

[keen thorn]

So based

[hallow solar]

idk why galien is further down the row yet placed earlier in the list

[keen thorn]

wtf

[hallow solar]

galien is after markoth

[queen lodge]

Honestly anyone else find rad flying nosk easier than rad normal nosk

[wind garnet]

[hallow solar]

yet on the list hes before markoth

[keen thorn]

I wonder who

[keen thorn]

Normal nosk is the hardest boss of the game

[obtuse brook]

😭😂

[obtuse brook]

Thank God Normal Nosk isn't in P5

[whole vortex]

13 radiants + ascended nailsage sly + absrad in one day

[keen thorn]

They say if vfk was after absrad R5 would be impossible

But if nosk was in P5 it would be even more impossible

[hallow solar]

if hornet 3 was in P5... yikes.

[hallow solar]

why is gpz present in one and not the other

also do radiant nosk its easy

mild diff

id rather do radkoth again over radwatchers again

[whole vortex]

i wnated him in journal and pantheons so i edited the save file

[whole vortex]

i struggle on ascended markoth and xero lmao

i'm gonna hate doing radiant on these guys

[hallow solar]

ascended markoth is hard

xero i found really easy

use shaman stone and spell twister to skip second phase with shriek spam

[whole vortex]

idk i take so much hits sometimes

[whole vortex]

k

[hallow solar]

obviously its not instant

[whole vortex]

imma try rq maybe 14 radiants in one day ?

[hallow solar]

maybe

radkoth is like xero but instead of shriek its shade soul

and i use soul eater instead of twister

another easy radiant you dont have complete is nosk

and lost kin (hes easy for me at least)

[whole vortex]

oh right lost kin i forgot abt him

nosk i struggle with the attack where he stops in the middle

[hallow solar]

oh you havent done collector or god tamer either

[whole vortex]

and recovers the whole arena

[hallow solar]

simple, stay away from the middle

[weary sandal]

||BROSKI PLAY PANTHEON 5 PLEASE|| (spoilers on how to find the last 2 bosses)

[whole vortex]

i did

second picture

[hallow solar]

not radiant

oh

hot take gpz is hella easy on radiant

[twin raven]

I made a new hollow knight oc

Called the Scarred Weaver

Wanna see?

[hallow solar]

may be a silksong discussion

[whole vortex]

i mean it was like my third time ever fighting gpz so yeah but i struggle a lot he's soo random

[hallow solar]

post in sk discussion

[hallow solar]

hardest part of gpz is the ZUTA attacj

everything else is not really random

make sure to bring strength for gpz

it one shots the minions

[whole vortex]

i hate the one where he fall from sky i never know where he is

[hallow solar]

yo i have a guaranteed dodge for that

ill record it

[whole vortex]

k

[frozen storm]

The spits

Somehow you can't kill the enemies the second they spwwn

[vagrant grail]

Just beat the mantis lords with almost a full bar of masks left

[hallow solar]

the trick is to hold a direction key and dash the moment you see zote

[whole vortex]

i hate xero

[whole vortex]

tysm

[vagrant grail]

It ticked me off a bit early but this run I was patient, recognized what each attack did (especially when fighting 2 mantises) and I got it

[hallow solar]

hope that helps

[vagrant grail]

It actually felt really easy once I actually knew what I was looking at

[hallow solar]

gg

[whole vortex]

why do i struggle so much on xero bruh

[tribal tide]

@silk robin did you beat it yet

[whole vortex]

he aimlock me wth

[tribal tide]

also im telling you sharp shadow is good for pv😭😭

[light stirrup]

i climbed this part without mantis claw

JUST GIVE ME THE FUCKING MANTIS CLAW I BEG YOU

[tribal tide]

Nice

[subtle glacier]

with wings?

wings dash?

[molten yoke]

Crazy

[light stirrup]

BRO I DO NOT NEED GLOWING WOMB GIVE ME THE FUCKING MANTIS CLAW

[molten yoke]

What do you have then? What charms?

[light stirrup]

and nail

[molten yoke]

I’m curious

[molten yoke]

Any really good notch costs?

[light stirrup]

?

[molten yoke]

Since glowing womb was 1 notch, I assume you have the notch randomiser on, so I wanted to know if you had any good luck with it

[subtle glacier]

@strong skiff pcc reference

youre famous

[light stirrup]

quick focus 1 charm notch

and longnail also 1 charm notch

[molten yoke]

Damn that’s good

[light stirrup]

but there's also bullshit like this

[molten yoke]

[frozen storm]

@shrewd nymph @foggy sable

[worthy peak]

Worth it.

[molten yoke]

I think I’ve seen someone’s vid before where heavy blow was free, and they went ‘still not worth it. They’d need to give me an extra notch to make me use it’

[uneven bough]

True

[frozen storm]

That was skurry with dreamshield

[raw sonnet]

hi

[frozen storm]

Close enough

[raw sonnet]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1113989517515423885/1298169178867372112/togif.gif

[molten yoke]

Ahhh that’s what it was

[strong skiff]

Hell yea

[light stirrup]

just in fucking time

[rugged salmon]

what happens if you don't discuss of hollow knight here

do you get sent to curtainland

[rugged salmon]

💔

[molten yoke]

FINALLY

[frozen storm]

Nothing

Mods do it all the time

Mods encourage you to do it

[dry creek]

yah

[frozen storm]

Not very late

[rugged salmon]

😱

it's cause that girl with no job has to find a JOB

[frozen storm]

Huh

Are you on void soup or something

[glass marten]

yes

[quartz cave]

i miss her

[rugged salmon]

did she die

[rugged salmon]

that's not very sigma

[glass marten]

ig we'll have to discuss hollow knight then

[quartz cave]

she got away

[glass marten]

my turn

uhhhh

[hallow solar]

just avoid discussing silksong in this channel

thats basically it

@whole vortex did you beat xero

[whole vortex]

nope i'm trying sly and pv rn i gave up on xero for now

almost beat sly but he did a nasty trick on me in second phase

!pure vessel$

[hallow solar]

you gave up on xero to try... pv?

[whole vortex]

!wiki pure vessel

[violet flicker]

https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Pure_Vessel

[whole vortex]

i atleast find it more fun if not easier

[hallow solar]

one of the hardest rad fights?

[whole vortex]

for me at least

yes

[hallow solar]

ill record a video of xero

how i do it

because its easy for me

[whole vortex]

alr

tysm for putting in so much effort

[native epoch]

try great slashes, dash away only after he talks

[whole vortex]

for xero ?

or sly

[worthy peak]

what radiant boss should i do with nail 0 white spells?

Im bored and wanna torture myself apparently

[whole vortex]

markoth

[rugged salmon]

how does one not beat xero easily

[worthy peak]

cant we keep it plausable...

[whole vortex]

no i got a fun one actually do watcher knights

possible but hell w only nail

[rugged salmon]

isn't he like the first dream warrior

[rugged salmon]

absolute radiance radiant

[worthy peak]

this is going to take ages

[worthy peak]

ehh. i got bored when trying that. Took to long to die at spike rain repeatedly

[rugged salmon]

failed champion at least

[worthy peak]

this will take absolutely ages

[whole vortex]

i always do failed champion w no spells tbh

[worthy peak]

with the conditions i have itll be basically the hardest one

[whole vortex]

that's good

you said you wanted to torture yourself

[rugged salmon]

absolute radiance is the only boss i can't beat because i absolutely suck at dodging the spikey ball things

[worthy peak]

the challenge is nail 0...

[rugged salmon]

then false knight

[whole vortex]

what so no use of nail or no use of spells i didn't understand i think

[worthy peak]

spells are allowed but they have to be white

cause well i want some reasonable damage

given the health of radiant bosses

[rugged salmon]

nail 0 and no dark spells

[whole vortex]

oh ok so only white spells

nail 0 upgrade

[rugged salmon]

did anyone ever try to do pure vessel radiant with only ascended grimmchild and not using nails or spells

[coral marlin]

I hate Voidheart.

Like Voidheart is the equivalent of an item with no significance other than progression. All the 2 void threats are never seen again once you leave the Abyss. There's no reason to go back.

Keep in mind, I'm shitting on it purely because it removed the 3 Soul a second effect.

[native epoch]

xero

[whole vortex]

why would someone do that

[rugged salmon]

but that means you can still use shaman stone

[rugged salmon]

didn't fireborn do path of pain with 50 primal aspids

[worthy peak]

okay im trying watchers know. its 720 nail hits

[native epoch]

it lets u control the void

[rugged salmon]

kingsoul is the worst charm in the game anyway

if you have 11 charm notches you're left with only 6 for a charm that barely gives you any soul

[native epoch]

after some thoughts it would've been great for PoP

[worthy peak]

but im allowing myself strength so like only 480

[whole vortex]

holy

[whole vortex]

js use hivebllood

[whole vortex]

holy rad markoth alr tysm imma watch that

[hallow solar]

rad xero

[native epoch]

is it only me or is absrad RNG each time either too easy or extremely slapping

[native epoch]

it's still better

[worthy peak]

i got really close to taking out one knight :D

[rugged salmon]

it depends on the use of case here

[whole vortex]

wow

[velvet lichen]

Glowing Womb exists

[hallow solar]

the first phase is the hardest part imo

[rugged salmon]

kingsoul has no reasonable use in combat alike to hiveblood

[whole vortex]

yes

[hallow solar]

second phase lasts 15 seconds so the extra speed isnt too impactful

you dont have to be perfect with shrieks either

one of the shrieks i did only hit once

[whole vortex]

i see

[rugged salmon]

glowing womb is not that bad to be honest

[hallow solar]

it is bad

[rugged salmon]

it's just not good

[velvet lichen]

Kingsoul is only bad because of the slots, randomizers change that

[hallow solar]

rando kingsoul is prob top 5 charms in the game

in my current rando its one notch

[rugged salmon]

if kingsoul was one notch I would probably use it but 5 notches is way too much

[velvet lichen]

Soul Eater is in the same boat

[native epoch]

man i miss charms

[hallow solar]

why

are you doing p5ab

[native epoch]

yes

[knotty ravine]

Eh honestly I’d say eater is a slightly different case

[hallow solar]

lord have mercy

[worthy peak]

... genuine use against ancient aspid

cheeses first phase

[hallow solar]

eater is incredible for radhog

because its an overcharm

so the cost becomes meaningless

[velvet lichen]

Didn’t know that

[native epoch]

and died to absrad 3 times

[velvet lichen]

Thank you

[hallow solar]

helped me beat radkoth

[rugged salmon]

soul eater is far from bad it's just too costy

[velvet lichen]

That helps the case for Kingsoul

[worthy peak]

the problem is i dont think it cheeses later phases

which means uhh... its frustrating as it takes longer to die anyway

[velvet lichen]

Oh

I’ll just ignore that bit

[whole vortex]

PV RADIANT

[jade minnow]

I can send gifts right without being touched

[whole vortex]

i did it

[hallow solar]

yo

[whole vortex]

pv radiant before xero ascended lmaooo

[velvet lichen]

Radiant PV is so damn fun

[young gate]

Horse…

[whole vortex]

i locked tf in holy

[young gate]

Bro 😭

[rugged salmon]

being able to do pure vessel radiant before xero ascended id crazy work

[hallow solar]

no offense but xero is not THAT hard

[whole vortex]

i first hated pv now i love him prob my fav boss

[rugged salmon]

it's like being able to do absolute radiance radiant easily but not being able to do gruz mother 💔

[velvet lichen]

I mean is that because you just haven’t gotten around to it yet, or because Xero’s actually giving you trouble

[whole vortex]

radiant pv before ascended nosk and gpz as well lmao

[hallow solar]

xeros trouble for him

[whole vortex]

rlly giving trouble

[rugged salmon]

what

[velvet lichen]

Damn

[rugged salmon]

hell nah sisters of battle is the best boss

[whole vortex]

yes

[rugged salmon]

you can't change my mind

[worthy peak]

@keen thorn rad watcher knights with nail zero white spells. any tips?

[velvet lichen]

I prefer regular Mantis Lords tbh

Both S tier, of course

[hallow solar]

may the lord have mercy on this man

[velvet lichen]

But I think the original fight flows better

[rugged salmon]

because they're easier obviously

[whole vortex]

i prefer sister it's so fun having to constantly dodge it's majestic imo

[velvet lichen]

Sisters of Battle kinda breaks after the first of three falls

[rugged salmon]

sisters of battle is the only boss i've done radiant on the first try

[worthy peak]

on ascended i somehow got through 3!

[whole vortex]

and easier than it looks sometimes so it's good to flex in front of non hk players lmao

[velvet lichen]

Nothing to do with difficulty

[worthy peak]

Thats no heal with heals itd be too easy

[rugged salmon]

depends

the difficulty of boss depends on your playstyle

[whole vortex]

14 radiants in a day (pv rad included) what a day

[velvet lichen]

I mean that my own opinion here isn’t influenced by difficulty

[rugged salmon]

tryharder booooo

[hallow solar]

make that 15 with xero

[strong blade]

yall is getting all the grubs worth it? Because im gonna fucking crash out bro i cant get this one grub in queens garden

[rugged salmon]

we are easily unintentionally influenced

[hallow solar]

its worth

[rugged salmon]

it's worth it

[whole vortex]

i will try

[hallow solar]

also is it that one where you have to crystal dash

[strong blade]

ill try but this area so hard

[strong blade]

yes

[whole vortex]

charm build is strenght, shaman, twister, long nail and mark of pride right ? for xero

[hallow solar]

do you have deep focus

[rugged salmon]

just use crystal dash and right before you come to a wall double jump

that allows you to have more room to climb

[hallow solar]

yes

[whole vortex]

k

[rugged salmon]

so you don't end up in the spikey

[subtle glacier]

[velvet lichen]

I mean sure but I’m usually biased towards fights that are more difficult, I really love a good challenge. That isn’t the case for these two fights, though

[worthy peak]

yes. Youd be evil if you didint

[worthy peak]

do anyrad.

[rugged salmon]

as i said it also depends on your playstyle

[worthy peak]

its super fun

[rugged salmon]

anyradiance 1.0 right

[worthy peak]

yes

[velvet lichen]

I probably should try the anyrads tbh

[whole vortex]

bro i can't

[worthy peak]

im not gonna ask people to try 2.0 unless ive done it

[rugged salmon]

also i'm remaking the enemy randomizer mod so it can run on lower end devices don't thank me 🚟

[worthy peak]

which probably wont happen for a while

[velvet lichen]

Never got around to them, was busy with randomizers and pale court

[hallow solar]

you cant do xero?

[velvet lichen]

Then Silksong came out and I just haven’t played HK since lol

Silksong is so damn peak

[whole vortex]

i got ascende dyes

[rugged salmon]

anyradiance is absurdly difficult to the point it feels like artificial difficulty

[whole vortex]

but i took 2 hits

[hallow solar]

i mean thats still good

[rugged salmon]

like ok this is not difficult you're just doing 3000 different attacks at once really fast we get it

[hallow solar]

i took like 8 hits to ascended markoth and 30 minutes later boom radiant

so 2 is good

was it to the first or second phase though

[worthy peak]

the max overlap is two attacks though?

three if you count floor spikes

[rugged salmon]

.

[frigid terrace]

That is the point

[plain forum]

Can you get vessel stuff and mask stuff from grubs?

[rugged salmon]

that was a metaphor

[worthy peak]

which is basically same as absrad

[rugged salmon]

i think you get one mask and one vessel

i know you get a mask but not sure about the vessel

[plain forum]

Is it full RNG or a certain milestone?

[rugged salmon]

milestone

[plain forum]

Mhm thanks a lot

[frigid terrace]

Any Radiance was not made to be particularly creative, it was made to be a jab at existing boss mods at the time which simply massively boosted the number of projectiles on screen without attempting anything more transformative

[whole vortex]

GOT HIM

[hallow solar]

first try?

[whole vortex]

HOLY TYSM

[rugged salmon]

isn't it kind of what dream variants of bosses do

[whole vortex]

second try on radiant i got him

[hallow solar]

nice

[frigid terrace]

Definitely what some of them do

[whole vortex]

15 rads in a day

[hallow solar]

I’ve done 4 rads today

but one was radkoth and I plan to finish the dream warriors

[whole vortex]

any other easy rad for today ? it's midnight in 1 hour for me

[hallow solar]

Oh for me it’s 4 pm lol

[velvet lichen]

Post the list

[hallow solar]

Can you send the list

[light stirrup]

HOLY SHIT I LOVE YOU WHITE LADY

THANK YOU

[hallow solar]

Nose

Nosk

[velvet lichen]

Ascended Nosk at least

[whole vortex]

alr

[hallow solar]

Or lost kin

For Nosk just stay in between the middle and the edge

[whole vortex]

any tip for the middle attack where he spits on the whole arena ?

[keen thorn]

Learn yourself a cycle to spam wraiths on the first watcher as much as possible before the second spawns. I think you can kill it in time without bindings.
The fight sucks so much and the lenght is like, the only reason it's this hard. Be patient tho. Unlike most other r04 fights using dive defensively is actually a good option, so with no soul binding dive spam is probably the best.
Now for damage just try to hit both watchers at once with whatever you can, or alternative some doubles/triples with vs.
For charms you mostly just want shaman, quickslash SB is probably great too, and some soul stuff. Dreamwielder is probably nice.

[hallow solar]

Is the problem the sudden stop or the acid on the floor

[whole vortex]

acid on floor

[rugged salmon]

i remember when i was playing enemy randomizer and the first crawlid got replaced by radiance

[hallow solar]

Just watch where it’s falling and stay still

[whole vortex]

i always expect the stop but i sometimes struggle dodging the acid

[hallow solar]

Stay still once it’s on the ground I mean

[whole vortex]

alr imma try lost kin first cuz i kinda like him then nosk

[rugged salmon]

wait does anyone know who has the most playtime on hk

[hallow solar]

Kin is easy imo

[worthy peak]

do i use strength or Mop?

[coral hemlock]

istg im abt to find a mod to make markoth in P5 easier cuz i genuinely hate that fight so much. Using platforms over a void for HIM SPECIFICALLY is just the most cancer thing in the game.

[rugged salmon]

lost kin is the only boss that made me ragequit on my first playthrough 💔

[hallow solar]

Whaaat

[rugged salmon]

why is everyone having such a hard time with dream warriors like cmon they are far from being hard

[gilded locust]

he is easy once you equip defenders crest

markoth is a pain

[worthy peak]

actually true for me as well.... i tried for so long on lost kin... and know i cant see them being hard.

[coral hemlock]

they're usually easy. not having a floor against a flying boss that just sits above the void? thats just really cancer

[rugged salmon]

i didn't beat dung defender when i went to beat him so it was harder

[storm trench]

Wait what

[gilded locust]

randomiser

[glass marten]

all bosses are easy once you learn how to beat them

[gilded locust]

probably

[worthy peak]

in my defence. how was i too know they only had one health

[rugged salmon]

and went i retried on my switch 2 playthrough the switch 1 version of hollow knight is broke on switch 2 so defender crest just randomly didn't work at all soooo

[gilded locust]

tell that to grey prince zote

[hallow solar]

Lost kin is easier than broken vessel dead serious

[gilded locust]

well also spore shroom exists

[hallow solar]

broken vessel is so slow it throws me off

[glass marten]

that's why he deserves to die

[gilded locust]

yes

[hallow solar]

my thing glitched out

[gilded locust]

cant wait for zoteboat so i can forever torment him

[hallow solar]

lost kin is easier than broken vessel dead serious

[worthy peak]

Which also does very little damage. outside of lost kin it wouldnt work on these things

[worthy peak]

... i dont see it

[gilded locust]

ye i was talking about lost kin

[rugged salmon]

i don't die by the speed of broken vessel or lost kin i was just so predictable before i kept dying by contact damage lol

[hallow solar]

vessel is so slow it throws me off

[gilded locust]

john vessel

[keen thorn]

Whatever you want
In this case I'd rather take strength. Even if it's not as good just anything to make the fight shorter is a W

[worthy peak]

yeah. but how are you too know it would work

[hallow solar]

and vessel has the attack in the middle

Lost kin loses it

[gilded locust]

they die one hit

[worthy peak]

it makes sense to assume they had same health as the others

[gilded locust]

so no big health

[rugged salmon]

does inferno king grimm at 500% speed throw you off top

[worthy peak]

those things that also get one shot?

[gilded locust]

blueberry grimm?

[gilded locust]

i mean i had pure nail and strentgth

[rugged salmon]

just say lifeblood grimm atp

[gilded locust]

i ve seen a video showcasing him

[whole vortex]

lost kin rad gg

[gilded locust]

meanwhile me struggling with nkg

[whole vortex]

16 rad

[worthy peak]

okay... how are you to know the things will die in one hit from defenders crest? Like its not an obvious strategy. which i why i didnt know it

[gilded locust]

kk

[rugged salmon]

did anyone do p5ab hitless yet

[hallow solar]

if you want another easy radiant then Nosk

[rugged salmon]

excuse me

[queen lodge]

Ok i need help

Tips for rad absrad anyone?

[worthy peak]

uhh ddark the spikes?

[hallow solar]

Nosk is easy tf you mean excuse me

[rugged salmon]

abyss shriek spam for opportunities and dd to dodge spikey ball

[queen lodge]

Fr?

[glass marten]

lock in

[worthy peak]

you can jump and pogo high in the orbss then ddark

[whole vortex]

nosk causing me a bit of trouble

[rugged salmon]

this HAS to be ragebait 🚟

[queen lodge]

No shit sherlock

[worthy peak]

should have time to hit three times

[worthy peak]

no it doesnt

i would say nosk is easy radiant

[glass marten]

well, if it works it works

[queen lodge]

Dude was saying markoth was fun earlier he is a mega liar

[hallow solar]

it’s not bait

[rugged salmon]

y'alll are crazy

[hallow solar]

MARKOTH IS FUN

[rugged salmon]

i'm going to sleep

[worthy peak]

markoth is fun

hes jsut also hard

[hallow solar]

what’s so hard about Nosk???

[rugged salmon]

🙁

[queen lodge]

Radkoth specifically

No thats a lie

[hallow solar]

like what specifically is hard about Nosk

[worthy peak]

Radkoth is fun I dont see how they are not

Radkoth is many things

[velvet lichen]

Remto did it a few years back

[whole vortex]

nosk ascended 1 hit

rad next

[worthy peak]

please say whats so hard about nosk?

[queen lodge]

imo flying nosk is easier than nosk

[hallow solar]

radkoth is hard but fun

I love using nail arts on him

[worthy peak]

I can see it... about equal for me

[hallow solar]

great slashing his ass is so fun

Nosk is easier than flying

I’ve never tried flying though so

[queen lodge]

We cannot be fr

[whole vortex]

nosk rad FIRST TRY lmao

[hallow solar]

lmao

[whole vortex]

17 rads

[queen lodge]

"This boss is easier than this other boss but i haven't even fought the other one"

[velvet lichen]

Markoth is very fun

Radkoth is also quite fun

[queen lodge]

He's not

[velvet lichen]

I disagree

[hallow solar]

radwatchers is terrible though

[queen lodge]

How many bosses are in hog again?

[hallow solar]

just misery

[velvet lichen]

44

[ebon depot]

44

[worthy peak]

actually i can see why you could think nosk is a difficult radiant fight... but that will be because you made a strategy mistake. if you stay in the middle and pogo the radiant is super annoying for me

[queen lodge]

Ok well the I'm 43/44

[whole vortex]

what next (30mins left)

[worthy peak]

but if you're near the side nosk becomes easy

[ebon depot]

Asc arena markoth is quite interesting once you know how to play against the jank

[hallow solar]

I’d do winged, tyrant, or zote.

[worthy peak]

soul tyrant

[velvet lichen]

AscKoth isn’t too bad

[whole vortex]

tyrant is SO hard for me

[queen lodge]

Tyrants easy

[hallow solar]

oblobbles, Markoth, nkg, and absrad are all hell

[whole vortex]

i spent almost 2 hours on him this morning

[hallow solar]

Sly is fine but there are easier options

[whole vortex]

no progress

[queen lodge]

Just don't rush on him its a decently long fight

[whole vortex]

not even phase 2

[velvet lichen]

NKG’s honestly pretty easy to do radiant, all things considered

[queen lodge]

Or nkg honestly

[whole vortex]

i almost got sly earlier

[velvet lichen]

Lots of telegraphing

[hallow solar]

What’s bad about tyrant

[whole vortex]

what's that

[velvet lichen]

Ascended Markoth

[queen lodge]

Oblobbles is hard but learnable all about where they are and where you are

[whole vortex]

idk too impredictible some attacks start at the same but totally different

[glass marten]

oblobble

[velvet lichen]

Radiant Oblobbles is just annoying

[hallow solar]

Wdym start at the same

[queen lodge]

I like keeping them near eachother on one side and standing opposite side

[coral hemlock]

I swear... I'm just gonna quit because of Markoth. The only achievement i need is P5, and I'm abt to just give up cuz this is not worth my sanity

[whole vortex]

same spot of the arena srry

[hallow solar]

I’m assuming you mean the floor sweep and the orbit?

[worthy peak]

you can do it!

[queen lodge]

I just did Radkoth i know your pain

[whole vortex]

like when he does fireball sometime idk if he rush or do fireball etc

[hallow solar]

Here’s a tip

[velvet lichen]

Sound cues help with that iirc

[queen lodge]

Who does fireball?

[hallow solar]

Always assume that if he’s at the edge and midair, it’s orbit. Edge ground, sweep

[whole vortex]

tyrant

not rlly fireball but the projectile

[queen lodge]

What do you deem fireball?

[hallow solar]

If it isn’t that, fireball is easy to dodge.

[worthy peak]

there is a watcher knight there. and he didnt hit me

[queen lodge]

The orbs?

[whole vortex]

ye

[queen lodge]

||Trobbio ahh||

[velvet lichen]

Vengeful Spirit isn’t a fireball either but it gets called fireball all the time, it just works

[coral hemlock]

No

[worthy peak]

... you definitely can do :D

i believe

[hallow solar]

Astro did you see my tip for tyrant

[queen lodge]

No I get its likely orbs he just has like 3 orb attacks so...

[whole vortex]

yes

i'm trying wnosk rn any tip ?

[coral hemlock]

Literally worse than every single elden ring boss, why tf does markoth P5 exist

[hallow solar]

I’m out cause I’ve never fought

[queen lodge]

Which move are you having trouble with astro

[worthy peak]

three? i only remember two?

[queen lodge]

Phase 2

[hallow solar]

He said that it was hard to differentiate the floor sweep and orbit attacks from the normal fireball attacks

[whole vortex]

the huge hitbox and the one that cover the whole arena (when you can see him, not the roof one)

[hallow solar]

I had a similar problem

[worthy peak]

ohh.... i forgot that attack was diferent from the phase one version

[queen lodge]

Yeah

[queen lodge]

The 6 orb?

[hallow solar]

Orbit and floor sweep rogue

[whole vortex]

no talking about wingeed nosk rn

[queen lodge]

Ohhh mb

[hallow solar]

Oh

[whole vortex]

nw nw

[queen lodge]

For winged nosk acid spit?

[whole vortex]

ye

[queen lodge]

Oh that's simple just watch them

As long as theres no balloons its fine

[hallow solar]

For the balloons maaaybe use elegy

Not sure again because I’ve never fought winged

[queen lodge]

Not even

Elegy is over kill

Balloons are not that bad

[whole vortex]

defender's crest one shot baloons

[queen lodge]

I'm being genuine when i say this and i don't mean to be rude but you shouldn't give advice on a boss you've never even beat let alone fought

[hallow solar]

Fair

It works for lost kin though

[queen lodge]

Lost kin elegy is also overkill

Balloons are one shotted

[whole vortex]

GOT HIM

[queen lodge]

And flying nosks balloons are pretty easy to deal with

[whole vortex]

holy 18

[hallow solar]

Bang

[queen lodge]

NICE

[hallow solar]

18/44

Crazywork

[whole vortex]

i'm so goated at this game

[whole vortex]

nah like

18 rads in one day

[queen lodge]

43/44 i suck at this game

Absrad pisses me off

That fucking moth that i hate

[hallow solar]

Can be said for Markoth as well

[queen lodge]

Eh

[whole vortex]

this was this morning btw

[queen lodge]

I call absrad either the moth that i hate or the fuckass moth while i call markoth JOHN SKILL ISSUE

[whole vortex]

first row is all rad so not included in photo

this is now

[queen lodge]

Do nkg

[whole vortex]

that's crazy work imo

[whole vortex]

bet i like this boss

[hallow solar]

If you for some reason want to do 19 I’d target gpz next

[queen lodge]

He's easy

[hallow solar]

I can do a soul tyrant video maybe

[queen lodge]

As long as you understand nkg's choreography he's simple

[vagrant grail]

First try finished the dung defender

[whole vortex]

i think nkg is a better choice for me at least cuz i barely have any experience with gpz and i only have 20 mins left before idnight

midnight*

[vagrant grail]

I even ended out with full health at the end too

That fight was just good vibes all around

[whole vortex]

I GOT HIM

FIRST TRY RAD NKG

[velvet lichen]

Sounds about right

[strong blade]

chat anyone got tips for me on how to beat traitor lorsd

[hallow solar]

UH WHAT

bro how

[velvet lichen]

Try not to jump and move around too much

[hallow solar]

for traitor lord there’s really 2 main strats

Either shade cloak as much as possible

Or play floor is lava

[velvet lichen]

Shade dash through his charges, slightly move towards him to dodge his dives

[strong blade]

Aighhhh

[hallow solar]

Floor is lava is what I do

[strong blade]

im gonna play main spells just spam spells

[strong blade]

bet

[coarse terrace]

when he dashes jump over him and pogo when he jumps dont move/dash forward, use quickslash and spam attacks

[hallow solar]

Just kinda spam pogo

[whole vortex]

what i do is always stay close and when she attack allways jump, if it's a normal attack then don't move if it's jump attack shade clock trough and repeat and never go too far as she will do spinning orange annoying ahh stuff

[strong blade]

alright

[hallow solar]

Traitor lord is a guy

[whole vortex]

whateever

mantis lords are female no ?

[strong blade]

alright

[hallow solar]

Cool fact irl male mantises are fare weaker than females

So traitor lord lore makes more sense

[strong blade]

Dayumm

[coarse terrace]

also try to get as much soul before the fight so u can heal if u get hit by the obby or the mantises before

[hallow solar]

He was weaker than his sisters so he desired power

And the infection gave said power

[strong blade]

Yeah

[hallow solar]

tlord is such a peak fight

[coarse terrace]

the obby before the fight is straight up ragebait

[strong blade]

ill try going full spell loadout for him

[hallow solar]

this ain’t Roblox

[proper vale]

my friend is using spacebar as a binded key does he deserve to get sent to the path of pain

[strong blade]

deadass bro 😭 😭 its so far from the bench

[hallow solar]

Spacebar for what

[coarse terrace]

i use space bar for spell casting😭

[proper vale]

jump

[hallow solar]

Mega do you have 900 essnce

[strong blade]

[whole vortex]

[strong blade]

[coarse terrace]

[strong blade]

Wait i didnt get it from seer yet but i could go

[coarse terrace]

[hallow solar]

The stag is right there

Go get dreamgate asap

[strong blade]

[proper vale]

zxc is such a good default

[delicate hound]

yes

[tribal tide]

[hallow solar]

Astro ik you won’t beat it in time for midnight but do you want me to do soul tyrant

@whole vortex

[whole vortex]
