no radiance for you

steel heart 💔

#

it broke my heart once

#

i never tried it again

honest shale
#

steel heart wasnt that bad imo

kind heart
#

It is not hard I just haven't gotten round to it

teal basalt
#

i tried to do it before pantheons

#

it felt impossible

honest shale
#

i beat steel soul for the first time then got steel heart on that save essentially for free

kind heart
#

I currently can beat all bosses except absrad on radiant without charms

teal basalt
#

i might try again now i ve beaten p5

sour flax
#

what if we added the ability to cook chocolate chip brownies with extra chip

honest shale
fierce scaffold
#

Do you fight the radiance mid fight with the hollow knight or after the fight? Like if I were to beat the hollow knight will I still be able to beat the radiance

sour flax
#

but to make said chocolate chip brownie with extra chip you need to harvest an organ from each boss

sour flax
#

steal crystals from the crystal peaks

#

take the "snow" from kingdoms edge

grave lintel
#

genuinely FUUUUCK pantheon uumuu

fierce scaffold
# teal basalt mid

How do I unlock the fight? Like what do I have to do to make it where I can fight the radiance

fierce scaffold
fresh isle
#

so yea endings dont lock u out of anything

teal basalt
#

shes after some boss fight

honest shale
fierce scaffold
#

Ok so I need to beat the hollow knight 1 time, reload into it, do sum other stuff and then fight it again to fight the radiance?

honest shale
teal basalt
#

you don’t need to fight hollow knight 1 time

#

if you want achievements tho you should

Yeahhh sorry it dropped out of favourites

molten forge
#

though dream nail is a bit jank to get off if you aint used to it

worthy peak
fresh isle
#

so you can like go down to the bottom 2 platforms as uumuu starts an attack, then go back up to make sure uumuu doesnt go down too far repeat

#

until you get a good lineup with the jellyfish (shade soul and ddark are really good for hitting the jellyfish sometimes)

grave lintel
#

i did finally that was so dumb

#

maybe my least favorite boss in the game from a design perspective lol

coral marlin
#

Dude this fucking controller is glitching so much, why the hell is my attack button inactive half the fucking time

fresh isle
grave lintel
#

the 2 most fun boss mechanics are obviously invulnerability phases and hard to predict projectiles, everybody loves that!

coral marlin
#

It's the charger. It's just my controller charger, because why wouldn't it be

grave lintel
#

what controller do you use?

coral marlin
#

PS4

#

My charger's been a bit busted for a bit

grave lintel
#

aah thats annoying

coral marlin
#

But I guess it's fucking with my controller's functionality all of a sudden

grave lintel
#

thats so odd

#

i have no idea why it would do that

honest shale
coral marlin
#

Like it just locks my controls that specifically link to spells or attacks for some reason

#

I disconnected the charger, COMPLETELY fine

noble ruin
coral marlin
#

Like the worst that's happened is the "low battery" pop up glitching and popping up endlessly

noble ruin
coral marlin
#

The only thing that would be stuck would be the R1 button. Because that got stuck for some reason in the past, but now it's fine

#

But uh... I dunno

#

7 - 8 years maybe?

honest shale
noble ruin
coral marlin
noble ruin
#

ps controllers get pretty ass after like 5 years normally

#

oki then

coral marlin
#

My charger also looks like this

honest shale
coral marlin
#

Few years back, my mom was vacuuming and the charger got caught in it

honest shale
#

Time to get a new one methinks

coral marlin
#

Also, another reason why it might be the charger, the charging port for my controller is weirdly loose with it

#

Like not the charger itself. It fits fine in the controller I never use because it feels weird

noble ruin
coral marlin
#

So it might just be a bit more skewed given how much I need to use it

#

God, I LOVE it when I dash in the direction of the light pillar that I can't fucking see

noble ruin
#

what light pillar

coral marlin
#

Radiance's light pillar that moves from one side to the other

noble ruin
#

erm

Also y'all get that glitch where if you nail hit immediately when you're able to after a Shriek, you don't get soul?

Guess who got jumpscared by the secret 3rd rectangle hitbox of AbsRad's light pillar

pseudo pagoda
#

Ooo

#

Why Team Cherry didn't just make it a constant 2 rectangle hitbox is beyond me

1 moving rectangle

Even better actually

#

TC, take notes

thorn ruin
#

tc fix radiance and absrad

coral marlin

I wish TC would give us some fuckin new HK stuff

Like even a little smth for the old HK apart from QoL

teal basalt
#

what is QoL

coral marlin
#

Quality-of-Life

#

Basically just things that make the game more playable

teal basalt
#

hmm yes

#

id like some new lore

sour flax
#

yall

coral marlin
#

I love not getting Soul for the nail hit after shriek

sour flax
#

what are your top 5 favourite hk soundtracks

honest shale
#

enemy iframes

coral marlin
#

...AbsRad gets fucking i-frames-

sour flax
#

these are mine

honest shale
#

its to prevent shade soul from hitting every frame and shit like that

coral marlin
#

So Shriek gives enemies a brief window of invulnerability to where my nail can't hit after the last hit of it

#

Oh my God

coral marlin
#

Now I notice it

foggy sable
#

enemy i frames are why setting fps to end in 4 or 9 means enemies take more hits from shriek

coral marlin
#

When the fuck did that become a thing
What

foggy sable
#

it has been a thing since forever

3 years of taking in shit tons of professional HK tricks and tech and still, I learn new shit

# shrewd nymph any odd ones?

literarly nothing is within 10 minutes other than like the 1st 4 of 1st raw, i took like 30 mins on hiveknight, that was also cause tilt tbf

probably not

honest shale

depends how comfortable you are with focus mostly

turns out if th fights last even longer than normal ab, i just start to stuggle

@shrewd nymph

Focus is fine tbh

i kinda skipped all those pv challenges and went right to -1norab so take it with a bag of salt

@naive dew

1 damage

shrewd nymph

smt like that

foggy sable

I should do that sometime

What’s the - then

but pv sucks

it is do I want to be very bored

better than rabtheon ig

#

It doesn't seem any harder than just Fighting PV for a really long time
Which is one of my most consistent fights

shrewd nymph
#

it is literally just fighting pv for a long time

#

its a consistency check

i have my first big exam today and im lowkey cooked but its okay#

rustic salmon
shrewd nymph
#

nah u got it dw

#

you shouldnt really be parrying anyways tbgf

#

i only 'parried' once and it was because i got bored

rustic salmon
shrewd nymph
#

good point

#

id argue that rabtheon is more entertaining because spells

#

but pv challenges are kinda notoriously redundant

foggy sable
#

rabtheons suck

shrewd nymph
#

i just had a movie on the side so it was fine

winter yacht
shrewd nymph
#

not using qslash normally is interesting

rustic salmon

I wouldnt recommend touching rabtheons for a while atleast

If at all

shrewd nymph

no i mean the pv challange

90m straight of hitless pv

But when I can have charms, I will have it

when I one day in 3 years do thorns only p5

I'm still allowed to be wistful that HK gives you the most pitiful range

foggy sable

I will have both ends of the thorns spectrum

frozen storm

foggy sable

that is kingsoul only

rustic salmon

#

P5 only Thorns sounds hilarious but also terrifying
Can you combo other charms like Hiveblood?

foggy sable
#

hiveblood, deep focus, grubsong, and some more

rustic salmon
#

actually hiveblood sounds nicer than ks

foggy sable
#

elegy

frozen storm
#

Thorns elegy gsong dfocus?

#

Or swap elegy for hiveblood

foggy sable
#

it depends on the segment

#

You're welcome for the suggestion lmao
I just figured you'd need health to sustain the damage

rustic salmon

that sounds so horribly bad tbh

I wouldn't want to either

I would only wish spore shroom only P5 on my worst enemies

rustic salmon

dreamshield only should be much more managable than thorns only

thorns is allegedly not that hard

Destroying bugs with the power of healing is certainly one way to beat Hollow Knight.

making it much less a feat

winter yacht
#

I watched it before

rustic salmon
#

i didnt

#

i just remmebered it being on my feed like 4 months ago

winter yacht
#

It's only trying to beat the Any% ending and it's impossible because THK is programmed to not die to anything except a nail hit

frozen storm
#

The list goes on for way longer

winter yacht
#

As is The Radiance

rustic salmon
#

so both impossible ig

winter yacht
#

Yes

frozen storm
rustic salmon
#

no way

frozen storm
#

No healing allowed

#

No dream nail allowed

rustic salmon
#

ah, that makes it significantly worse i suppose

shrewd nymph
foggy sable
winter yacht
#

Personally I'd allow the 1 final hit to be ignored because it's more of a "cutscene trigger" and less so doing damage
You can get THK, Rad and Absrad to 0hp without them dying because they require a nail hit to trigger the ending

frozen storm
foggy sable
#

it is like saying someone is doing nail only p5 but it is actually 1 nail damage ab or something

frozen storm
rustic salmon
frozen storm
foggy sable
#

dreamshield only, in comparison to thorns only

frozen storm
#

Also streaming gives decent money

frozen storm

#

So honestly
Spore Shroom only P5 could be a silly thing if you allow the exception of the final Absrad hit to trigger the cutscene

my fav p5 vid is probably this1

This is the peak of my itemless challenges journey.

Pantheon of Hallownest, the hardest challenge from the base game, done without a SINGLE item and with ALL Bindings at once.

Itemless means you have literally NOTHING. No movement abilities, no spells, no Nail upgrades, no additional Masks nor Vessel fragments. Every object that can be picked ...

But for that specifically i think its true

shrewd nymph
#

People just overuse the word for people who like difficulty and its corny

frozen storm
#

Why?

shrewd nymph
#

Like someone literally enjoying being hurt and someone doing p5 arent the same thing

shrewd nymph
#

Moreso i hate the hk community ig

#

Inherently the word is fine

rustic salmon
#

idk, i like using maso as a joke for difficult stuff

frozen storm
winter yacht
#

I think difficulty is not necessarily about wanting to suffer but more about having the courage and patience to keep getting back up, keep trying and gain the achievement you want, for your own satisfaction

rustic salmon
#

maybe i was the problem all along

shrewd nymph
rustic salmon
shrewd nymph

Some people genuinely think that doing p5 is masochism and not just enjoying a challenge

idk, it all depends on perspective

#

I don't think people really do challenges with the intention of enjoying the suffering
It's not really masochism
A number of challenge runs in games are to push the game to its limits and find out what is even possible to accomplish. Or, push yourself as a player to see what you can accomplish.

honest shale

#

Even if the term isnt accurate, using it for absurd challenges (like that dshield one above) idrc

shrewd nymph

But the standard is very low

but like yes im aware

Tip: overcharm for r5ab

But that used to be definitely considered masochistic at the time
It might be an influx of new players that lowered the bar? Idk.

That's old

shrewd nymph
#

Im still pretty new to the community still

winter yacht
#

And I feel old agoneyes

#

But yea
I think it can only be called masochistic if the true intention going in is to suffer and enjoy that suffering. Otherwise it's just being challenge seeking.

I think it's because people beat tmg, then watch the tmg theme on yt

frozen storm

And the comments are all like

frozen storm
#

Grimm is like a dance

shrewd nymph
#

But you can still be reasonable

frozen storm
#

And they take that to themselves

shrewd nymph
#

And that bar is the point of irrationality

#

something like the dshield challenge just makes you ask why

Nobody really asks 'why' for p5

#

Because it makes sense

winter yacht
#

It's an achievement

sour flax
#

p5 sounds like a slog

shrewd nymph
#

but tldr something doesnt have to be objective to be unreasonable

sour flax
#

im prolly gonna stop at p4 if I ever get there

shrewd nymph
#

(Infact its often not)

shrewd nymph
#

but you should try p5 out imo because of the unique bosses

and thats me being generous

#

I just kinda suck hivescream

winter yacht
#

But it being an achievement is a poor excuse for why it's not masochism to go after

I know of an achievement in a game that is so so much worse than P5.

honest shale

give yourself some credit

wait which pantheon has nosk

#

I think

sour flax
#

nvm p1 and p3

shrewd nymph
winter yacht
#

It's an achievement I consider ludicrous and absurd and the name of the achievement literally makes the same joke

"Impossible, Right?"
Feel free to guess what game this is

shrewd nymph
#

Is that the crypt game

winter yacht
#

But I promise you that that achievement is far worse than Embrace the Void

#

Yes!

shrewd nymph
#

Know nothing about the game

#

But i remember melone saying the game was miserable to plat

winter yacht
#

It's absolutely miserable to plat

honest shale

#

The term is too overused so atleast use it for stuff thats incomprehensible to attempt

#

and twin why is there an m at the end of ur name

honest shale
shrewd nymph
#

(Also the standard effectively doesnt exist, people just use the term for the sake of repeating trend buzzwords

Aka ive seen it used for stuff varying between very easy and very hard things)

winter yacht
# honest shale i was gonna say how did we get here but what the fuck is that

Beat an All Zones Coda run
Who's Coda? Why is that so hard?

K so. Crypt of the Necrodancer is a rhythm game and roguelike. Coda is an unlockable challenge character.
What does she do?
Well. You have a dagger. You have the equivalent of 1HP. You move at double tempo. You die if you miss a beat, at double tempo. No you don't get any other weapons. You also die if you touch gold. Because that's also a thing.

In short, all the challenge characters merged into one and you're expected to win a run that's probably about 15-20 minutes long if you're slow playing and not speedrunning.

sour flax
winter yacht
#

Considering that each of the challenge characters on their own are brutal
Coda was considered impossible by the devs and yet still has an achievement

sour flax
#

and the m is some excess dummmm from the badummm

#

think the Netflix sound thing

winter yacht
#

I know like every tiny ass stupid thing in the game and I have played a stupid amount of time and I'm nowhere near ready for Coda
Especially since the unlock condition is to win an All Characters run. That's a winning run of every character back to back.

#

Honestly HK let us off very easy on the achievements

#

I have HK platted. It wasn't even that hard

frozen storm
#

It's not

#

I'm just lazy to do steel soul

#

For both games

#

Silksong is less laziness and more like skill issue

winter yacht
#

I just treated Steel Soul like a normal second run where I could do the alternate paths I didn't do on my first run like neglect Zote

frozen storm
#

I need to get neglect, purity and banishment

sour flax
#

I cant decide who i hate more

winter yacht
#

I love GPZ so much I hate the thought of Neglecting my goober friend agoneyes
I also love NKG so much it pained me to banish em

Why is the white defender ost one of the longest across both games?

winter yacht
#

Idk but it's an amazing track

#

The game also gave the best music to the worst areas
I'm looking at Queen's Gardens and Crystal Peaks

shrewd nymph
warm aurora
#

-# Path of Pain

winter yacht
#

Soul Sanctum
True

#

The good music definitely takes some of the pain away from dealing with the area

warm aurora
#

Yes

raw sonnet
winter yacht
#

Nothing helps with Deepnest though
Deepnest's music is the chitter of bugs

warm aurora
winter yacht
#

Waterways at least has some mild music but it's kinda forgettable

warm aurora
#

Its also not really music but 2 bosses do use it

#

The action part

winter yacht
#

If I recall correctly anyway

warm aurora
#

I do listen the ost a lot but because waterways is not a track I dont remember much if it

#

Since it isnt much at all

winter yacht
#

Mm

#

Oh
My brain mixed up some Endless Ocean Blue World music for Waterways music
Because guess what I play in the background when I have the game music muted to play more idly

warm aurora
#

Ah

cedar lava
#

Should i save zote?

winter yacht
#

Endless Ocean Blue World music
It's that or Crypt of the Necrodancer if I'm practicing bosses or something

warm aurora
winter yacht
warm aurora
#

On a music note

#

That track is underrated too

#

Truth, Beauty and Hatred

winter yacht
#

I love that one

#

I hum it whenever I fight GPZ

warm aurora
#

It just started playing (I have a playlist of the ost on)

winter yacht
#

What I find interesting is that I observed that GPZ's attack rhythm is weirdly synced to the music.

warm aurora
#

Interesting

#

Will keep an eye out for that

winter yacht
#

I play worse vs him with the music muted

#

Because I kinda learned to use the song audio cues to know when he'll attack

warm aurora
#

That would mean he has set intervals or its just a feeling you build ig

#

Anyways I gtg

#

Good talk

winter yacht
#

I fought GPZ a lot and now it just feels like I am predicting him and controlling the chaos of the fight because I just know what is coming

#

Bye!!

warm aurora
#

Lastly, what if the hollow knight ost got rerecorded with a live orchestra and the music ingame got updated to it like silksong

solar rover
#

has anyone ever did HK hitless?

#

Yes

quite a few yes

#

112% hitless hasnt been done but its been close

#

Hi

solar rover
#

but thats impressive that they can almost do the whole game hitless

solar rover
#

its very satisfying how speedrunners clear this gauntlet but i only ever did it right once

#

free cake for me

solar rover
#

i am playing like zote right now... it sucks

ello everyone

hi azure

how are you doing enddeous

#

I think you wait near by the platform that spawns the thing when you see them come from the background you jump to spawn the rock thing then slash it when they line up

#

It’s easier than I put it

compact wasp
#

but it also makes me come across as a douche who is self centered

soo I should probably stop

ye I won

#

I finished it yesterday

wind garnet
#

Alr gl r5

compact wasp
#

well yeah that is the next target

#

feels good to play with full gear again

wind garnet
#

Ngl I recommend you do r04hog or something similar before r5

#

Unless you don’t have mods then just do radiant charmless on some bosses and practice!

compact wasp
#

damn p5ab really is a small achievement here compared to others lol

#

but atleast that means I am ready enough to atleast try to attempt r5 practice

wind garnet
#

Yeah ngl it’s quite the gap but r5 would be a nice achievement

#

It’s harder than 2.0 GrubEyes

#

Which is confirmed by a few r5 victors

solar rover
#

i was gonna say since i have been doing steel soul runs i have becomve very good at false knight but as i was thinking it i almost got butchered by him

wind garnet
compact wasp
#

but honestly I will probably just be happy about p5ab for a few days

#

before locking into r5 completely

#

just do usual p5 runs everyday though

#

as like a bare minimum

foggy sable
wind garnet
#

Meteorcow did

#

But she’s different

compact wasp
#

I don't really plan on getting imposter syndrome lol

wind garnet
#

Also I did not mean all of r04hog 😭

#

Should’ve said that

compact wasp
foggy sable
#

I would say so

compact wasp
#

ye, sorry if I was being annoying about it yesterday

#

or looked like I was too deep into my own head

solar rover
wind garnet
#

wrong lol

shrewd nymph
#

there is atleast one bigger

wind garnet
#

but its up there

compact wasp
solar rover
shrewd nymph
#

well it'd be p5ab to r5

wind garnet
#

didnt grey say p5 to r5 is harder

#

or wider jump than r5 to r5ab

compact wasp
#

well yeah but p5 to r5 is a double difficulty jump

foggy sable
#

I say a lot of things

compact wasp
#

you can't call that one jump

wind garnet
#

this is very true grey

compact wasp
#

its p5 to p5ab to r5

foggy sable
#

I don't think p5ab to r5 is bigger than p5 to p5ab

shrewd nymph
#

but it also isnt p5 to p5ab
its more like radhog/p5eb

polar summit
compact wasp
#

eb?

shrewd nymph
#

not all at once

compact wasp
#

not even ab?

#

I went radhog to p5ab

shrewd nymph
#

same

foggy sable
#

but also sane people stopped listening to my difficulty comparisons ages ago

shrewd nymph
#

but im saying its not p5 -> p5ab

compact wasp
#

but then again grey my difficulty progression has been kinda similar to you

#

so i do listen to you grey

shrewd nymph
#

wait till you hear prime grey takes

foggy sable
#

which ones are those anyway\

solar rover
compact wasp
#

but damn sub 10 p5 is a lot harder than even 11 hit p5

shrewd nymph
foggy sable
#

tbf that one is a joke

foggy sable
#

not doing p4ab is for comedic reasons

shrewd nymph
#

the classic

compact wasp
#

well team cherry had a worse take

#

r5 is easier than p5ab

solar rover
compact wasp
#

considering all bindings glow actually rewrites hitless glow

shrewd nymph
compact wasp
#

radhog is nothing compared to p5ab

#

calling it a joke is an understatement

shrewd nymph
#

p5ab > radhog ab evenb

solar rover
shrewd nymph
#

p5ab is much harder

unique badge
#

gmcg

shrewd nymph
#

atleast in my experience

bitter jolt
#

what experience

compact wasp
#

even ab ascended absrad is miles harder than doing radhog 3 times in one day

bitter jolt
#

you speedran everything 😭

#

I didn't do radHoGab for ages

so just let me just be clear so I don't gaslight myself here. Should I be proud of p5ab as a major milestone?

shrewd nymph
#

obviously lol

wanton loom
#

i realized like a few days ago i wasnt using quick cast

compact wasp
#

ye that's why I said gaslight

shrewd nymph
#

you should start being proud considerably before that guh

compact wasp
#

I have that habit

compact wasp
#

then I came here and was fully new

#

took some time to get used to it

compact wasp
#

remember when I was dumb enough to think r5 is easier than p5ab?

shrewd nymph
#

nope

compact wasp
#

that was my thought process

shrewd nymph
#

but thats surprisingly common

compact wasp
#

at the start

shrewd nymph
#

p5ab gets overestimated alot by newer players and r5 gets underestimated

#

people dont really understand the difficulty of long challenges hitless

compact wasp
#

i literally did p5ab one more time today but died at the end

shrewd nymph
#

hitless p5

compact wasp
#

it would be funny to do a joke r5 run somehow

like baldurs shell or something

compact wasp

r5 with anyrad build

solar rover
#

ooh

foggy sable
#

and then send it as an explanatory thing

compact wasp
#

but seriously yall make me comprehend this. Just how big is the jump from p5ab to r5

agile pewter
foggy sable
#

imo, not that big

shrewd nymph
solar rover
#

i have never done even p5 cant say but i dont thit it should be that much

shrewd nymph

its quite a lot
