hk-discussion

[ebon depot]

ok thats lame then, how much harder is p045 then AB

[merry radish]

I don't even know what r5 stands for, I just assumed that

[ebon depot]

im trying to find something to derust lmao

[zealous skiff]

then why are you even making that assessment

[worthy peak]

radiant pantheon 5

means hitless though

[agile pewter]

no r5 is harder
cuz half the pantheon has different kinds of gimmicks and errors that lead to you taking dmg out of nowhere

[zealous skiff]

you could do r04hog excluding collector

[copper spruce]

radiant vs hitless

[real seal]

But what about p5 all bind old nail albase spells hitless

[zealous skiff]

then just come back to collector in some indefinite amount of time later when youve derusts

[ebon depot]

r04hog sounds like a decent idea honestly

[merry radish]

Ok, I'm taking back what I said, prettend I didn't even say that

[real seal]

It does

[agile pewter]

[zealous skiff]

also r5 running is good derust imo

[real seal]

[ebon depot]

idk I just get frustrated when doing r5 runs rusty, r04 is a good idea tho i dont have any past experiences to compare myself to

[real seal]

I just kinda suck a dogeing except for a hand full of bosses I can do in my sleep

[hot void]

ive only done p1 and 2 eb

no other bindings at all

[real seal]

Where everyone go?

[copper spruce]

Blew up

[real seal]

Did you just make that @agile pewter

[merry radish]

To Leon absrad would be like massive moss charger

[hot void]

we know

[frosty pecan]

i need this for a fangame im making

[empty lynx]

I wonder why

[real seal]

I'ma go wima go watch that be back in a bit

[empty lynx]

maybe because yknow fury is like genuinely 56 damage a hit with strength and it forces you to lock tf in

[digital grove]

hi daniel gabriel fahrenheit

[empty lynx]

hi eignog from nine slops

haha get it

eggnog

nine SLOPS

[hot void]

[agile pewter]

[digital grove]

he says with a ji pfp 🤨

[frosty pecan]

-# small bump even tthough its offtopic i apologise

[agile pewter]

not bad facedance tbh
but we dont do upslashes
only when we disegage

[empty lynx]

god forbid a man finds a gem in between coal

[agile pewter]

also you need to disable screenshake lol

[hot void]

upslash looks cool

[agile pewter]

you can try Taly's face dance

[leaden igloo]

sacrificing practicality for aura i see

[hot void]

i have screenshake on?

[agile pewter]

it's just up down up down

[hot void]

how do i turn off

[hot void]

[hot void]

wym

[hot void]

thats annoying

[agile pewter]

screenshakes are annoying

[agile pewter]

yea

[pallid grail]

[empty lynx]

screenshakes piss me off so much

[hot void]

is it allowed for speedrun catagories?

[empty lynx]

i wish i could update my port to remove them

[hot void]

to turn off

[vale condor]

Yes, it's allowed

[agile pewter]

[merry radish]

I'm trying to do absrad with the most modded radiance boss charm build and it surprisingly works

[hot void]

wait so is it allowed or not

[empty lynx]

I'd assume so since it literally does nothing but make the game feel better to play
Also they kinda literally added screenshake on and off as an option recently what do you think

[agile pewter]

iit is lol

[hot void]

okay how theh ell do i find the hk files

[vale condor]

This one is just where your steam install is

[agile pewter]

[hot void]

its slow

hurry up

[merry radish]

@agile pewter how many times do you think you can beat absrad without dying?

[keen saffron]

do you have a hard drive.

[hot void]

guys it works

okay attempt 2

[foggy sable]

any amount if I had to guess

[agile pewter]

like 17 hours

i sleep 7 hours every day

[lapis musk]

If its attuned then it'd be infinite

[hot void]

okay

screenshaek should be gone

[real seal]

Did it work

[hot void]

if screenshake is not gone Ill permanently be stuck with it

[real seal]

Screen shake ain't that bad

[hot void]

yes it is

it makes me look less cool

@agile pewter does crystal dash usually shake screen

oh wtf

this is so weird bro

[real seal]

Bro

[hot void]

why didnt anyone tell me about this 6 years ago

[agile pewter]

but it works

[real seal]

Bout what

[hot void]

[agile pewter]

good luck.

[hot void]

my face dance feels uselss without upslash

wait doesnt steady body-less face dance use upslash

[agile pewter]

again, you can try Taly's dace dance
it's just upslashh downslash consecutively

[real seal]

English Henry

[hot void]

i want to go in circles

[agile pewter]

yea then dont do upslashes

[worthy peak]

Why does upslash stop that...

[agile pewter]

momentum

[lone anchor]

Here have absolute radiance in HD

[agile pewter]

technically you can time it so that your double jump wiill cancel out the upslash
but it's so tedious, once you hit it wrong you immediiately oush yourself down

[merry radish]

Sick

[hot void]

leon i suck

[agile pewter]

not too bad

can defo see better thats for sure

[hot void]

bro im playing like this is my first time against absrad

[agile pewter]

you can pogo the ground spikes or the sword bursts as you dodge, and get momentum to reach the boss

alr i gtg

[hot void]

their delay throws me off

wow i died ot the void

[old briar]

Hello guys :D

[thin violet]

hihi

[old briar]

I am new to the server :D

[old briar]

Why cant I send photos

[keen saffron]

300 messages

[old briar]

Aw man

Btw is hk harder on mobile or pc or console

I am mobile

[radiant oak]

Mobile is harder

[thin violet]

but pc has mod support

so

[radiant oak]

Yeah but we ain't talking about modded game

Mobile definitely way harder than pc

[thin violet]

fair fair

[compact wasp]

then pc also has invincibility

[merry radish]

I just died right when the radiance ascended to the climb phas

I ate a letter

[thin violet]

yeah but thats lame lol

[compact wasp]

no like mod support goes both ways

[thin violet]

like whacha gonna do? fake r5?

[compact wasp]

idk why but I wanted to say that lol

[sharp furnace]

so which one is harder, path of pain OR celeste farewell

[inland pawn]

any tips for uumu in p3?

[worthy peak]

hi @compact wasp and @thin violet

[compact wasp]

cotton

[thin violet]

hihi

[compact wasp]

hi strawberry

[radiant oak]

Don't rush

[thin violet]

[compact wasp]

[worthy peak]

[compact wasp]

not really happy with that

yk when you feel agitated for some reason

but you don't even know why

[thin violet]

forgive me for typing slow im tryna do cc stuf

[compact wasp]

hey you are fine

just take it as, being constantly on edge

[inland pawn]

oh i beat her

[worthy peak]

Im sad for you still...

[worthy peak]

ggs

[radiant oak]

People on TikTok always show off in comment section by posting a picture of they beat All binding P5 on mobile, and most of them used invincible glitch 😑

[inland pawn]

BEAT HORNET 2!!

its time for sly

oh i just died immediately

[thin violet]

ggs

Whacha been up to hollow?

[inland pawn]

do you guys know how i can get the soul eater charm ?

[worthy peak]

its in resting grounds

Know the place where you dive to get in?

keep going right in there

[inland pawn]

i think so

[worthy peak]

ehh, like nothing, jumped between far too many different challenges

completed only crystal mechanist

[worthy peak]

(which i think should be far later in p7)

[compact wasp]

tbf I am doing celeste now

for a bit

[worthy peak]

[thin violet]

crystal mach is really annoying and honestly was an early chokepoint for me in my p7 runs

likes by far i had the most deaths there and naturally i hated the fight lol

[worthy peak]

yh...

I think i dont hate the fight much

but its just quite hard compared to a few other...

[thin violet]

yeah it was a thorn in my side even with me having done it radiant before

[alpine citrus]

is it fun

i got it on steam but i haven't downloaded it yet

[worthy peak]

celeste is super fun

[urban grotto]

celeste is fun but it’s really annoying when you’re not good at it

just like hk

[inland pawn]

GOD p3 is hard

[thin violet]

yeah it can be kinda tricky

[keen saffron]

[worthy peak]

confidence is key. You got this!!!

[radiant oak]

Overconfidence isn't

[solar willow]

with the opening if 'gods and glory' I can't stop thinking of a godseeker just hitting their head against the drum ti make the sounds

[flat widget]

oh well actually I'm gonna sleep about 10 o clock so I'm gonna go now...

[worthy peak]

Overconfidence still gives a better chance of success imo

[compact wasp]

Practice the bosses that are hard

[lone anchor]

Sleep tight, don't let the radiance bite

[wispy willow]

What boss are you struggling on

[radiant oak]

Overconfidence will lower your focus and underestimate the bosses

[flat widget]

kay 😴

[cold basin]

Egotism is a powerful motivator.

[thin violet]

you have no idea

[worthy peak]

but it also lowers your stress... Stress kills me a much higher percentage than when im unfocused...

[wispy willow]

Agree

[inland pawn]

sly

[ebon depot]

i mean you can think youre goated and still be focused

[split zenith]

they are very easy to hit, however actually getting them consistent is fairly difficult as you need to start really early so you don't get hit by a dive.
You normally don't notice that though since it's pretty rare he does dive right after and you get away with a less precise heal

[radiant oak]

I used to think so too

[worthy peak]

[wispy willow]

Mmmmm I see, second phase is free once you realise that you just need to dash away from him when he lunges in saw form

First phase I forgor :(

[unborn holly]

hit, go back, hit

[wispy willow]

I remember clearly that I was getting hit because I was moving so much sly has ADHD so you dodges have to be deliberate

He will move a lot but attacks directed at you are slow

[inland pawn]

oh my GOD this stupid snail

[autumn dawn]

this is supprizing to me i find I do better when im calm and cautious but i guess everyones diff lol

[wispy willow]

Snail?

Also practice him in hog

[wispy willow]

Same

[autumn dawn]

what snail 😭

[worthy peak]

Overconfidence gives you the calm, muscle memory can give you the cautious. Cause if you have practiced caution thats how you'll play when not stressing

even if super confident

[radiant oak]

He meant nail I guess

[inland pawn]

i am

[wispy willow]

Good

[autumn dawn]

see when im over confidant i get cocky and go in for extra hits

i see what your describing as just being confidant in my skill

[worthy peak]

Thats recklessness not overconfidence...

[gloomy laurel]

Hello everyone

[worthy peak]

yh

[hot void]

ive done fucked up, my bench is in fungal

[inland pawn]

why are there like. 3 radiances there

[hot void]

there are lik 11

[worthy peak]

if only hk hadd that celeste hting where you could get rid of the pause screen...

[unborn holly]

every gruz turned into absrad

[worthy peak]

cant tell where you are...

[devout agate]

I finally after 45 hours passed Absolute Radiance on radiant

[ebon depot]

thats the gruzmother arena

[autumn dawn]

proly a randomizer

[worthy peak]

congrats

[devout agate]

thanks

[worthy peak]

thanks

[winged spear]

[hot void]

hey i acc did the blue lake skip yay

[keen saffron]

i still haven't 🥲

good job tho

[autumn dawn]

😭 thats so long my guy i feel bad for you i thought my 18 on markoth was torture

[devout agate]

I failed 4 times on the last stage

[inland pawn]

WHY THE FUCK DOES SLY TURN INTO A FUCKING MOTOR ENGINE AT PHASE 2

[unborn holly]

how💀

[devout agate]

this is most random boss in the universe

[wispy willow]

Bro did not read my message

[autumn dawn]

my first radhog took me 18 hours to beat rad markoth but my second one only took like 2 hours just for clarity so i technically have like 20 hours total on rad markoth 😭

[keen saffron]

idk i feel like i can do phase 1 and 2, i just fuck up the climbing

[radiant oak]

When I reached PV for the first time in my P5 run, I thought I can handle it easily cuz I already beat it on Radiant. But PV kicked my ass due to my blind confidence

[keen saffron]

also i switched to keyboard and mouse, which means im going to hae to wait a bit longer until i can fight her again lol

[unborn holly]

most hard bosses like rad absrad malenia or promised consort radhan took me all 3 days to beat

[devout agate]

yep, climbing very, random thing because you need to react in 0.5 seconds to dodge the laser

[autumn dawn]

with practice the climb is the easiest part i also used to struggle with it, if youd like my advice then personally i find it easier to watch for it and once a beam fires go up one platform then wait for it to go off again before progressing, just repeat that till top of the climb its a bit slower but super safe

[worthy peak]

well... that kind of thing has never happened to me... i think we just handle being confident and stressed differently

[inland pawn]

i thought phase 2 was first stagger

[keen saffron]

got any advice about doing phase 2 consistently

my friends noted that i move too much which gets me killed but idk how to fight that muscle memory off

[autumn dawn]

oh tbh not many controller players are willing to make the swap but i personally always found keyboard mouse to be easier for me :D

[unborn holly]

not really you just need to know where its going to shoot

[devout agate]

in second stage you need to stay in central platform and wait

[keen saffron]

i notice i either get too greedy or do descending dark too late, i think my entire timing is bad

[devout agate]

yeah but in the bottom of 3-rd stage you can't know it, because it's shooting too bad

[wispy willow]

Oh no lol

[inland pawn]

ok i beat sly on attuned once. with a single mask left

[wispy willow]

What build are you going

[keen saffron]

still dont know how i did radiant markoth but not radiant absrad

[split zenith]

hello I'm your biggest fan too

[wispy willow]

Clober

[radiant oak]

Can you confidently tell me that you can defeat any radiance easily just because you have defeated her before? You probably can't

[worthy peak]

I mean, how easily are we talking?

[inland pawn]

its. kind of spell and kind of nail idk

[wispy willow]

Send

[worthy peak]

and how does that relate to being confidents affect on winning chance

[unborn holly]

3rd stage? like plats?

[keen saffron]

when i get overconfident i get too greedy

i just play without the expectation to win tbh

[devout agate]

yes

[unborn holly]

I can

[wispy willow]

But if the greed works you get a good clip

[wispy willow]

Lowk good build

[inland pawn]

ty

[unborn holly]

you can stay on top centre platform and predict the phase change

[autumn dawn]

i personally like to stay in the center two platforms and occasionally move to the closest outer platforms so i wont chase her to the far end platforms. you honestly mostly want to focus on dodging in the center bottom platform and then get hits in when there are a few opertunities. personally i use 3 major chances. if she teleports on top of me when im in center bottom or center top il up strike three times then d dive and d dive again to void damage from her attacks then i can get three shrieks off before she teleports away (i use soul eater). thats my best way of dealing damage but i can also get extra chip if she teleports to one of the adjacent platforms because depending on her attack i can get a nail hit or two and sometimes a shriek. if you are on bottom and she teleports to top platform (center) you have 2 options you can either chase her up and reapeat the sequance for if she teleports on top of you minus the three starting nail hits (make sure if you choose to do so that you have the soul for at least 2 d dives) or you can let her fire off her attacks dodge and then hit her with 2-3 shrieks through the platform (youd still be on bottom just do a double jump to be able to reach her)

[wispy willow]

I ain't reading allat

[autumn dawn]

yeah its not for you

[keen saffron]

i see, ill note this one

[devout agate]

but when it starts radiance shooting whithout aim

[devout agate]

so you can't predict the laser

[unborn holly]

yeah just jump to the next platform

[keen saffron]

i need better controls for keyboard and mouse

anyone got recommendations

[autumn dawn]

also 2nd phase kinda just sucks and if you get bad rng on her moves or teleports stuff can kinda fall apart, also to mention thats what works for me but my specific build is (strength, quickslash, steadybody, shamenstone, souleater) and depending on changes in your build or playstyle this may not work well for you but its still worth the read if your struggling imo

[keen saffron]

i need to teach myself not to get greedy

[devout agate]

but laser can appear strait on your way and you have 0.5 sec to react amd dash in right sight to save yourself

[keen saffron]

or make movements that kill me instead

[unborn holly]

jump w
moving ad
hit space
up up arrow
down down arrow
dash left arrow
dream nail shift
cdash 0
quick cast right arrow
inv q
heal e

[empty lynx]

r04 imo

[keen saffron]

what the hell

[unborn holly]

yeah its easy

[unborn holly]

they work really well

[empty lynx]

yea climb phase is all about rhythm and reacting well

[alpine citrus]

ok

[inland pawn]

i can NOT do this p3 bullshit anymore yo

[umbral night]

Gg

[empty lynx]

what's up who's the one giving you trouble

[keen saffron]

ill try it out

[alpine citrus]

it took a while for me but u need consistency

[inland pawn]

sly

[empty lynx]

Which part of sly
and what charm build

[unborn holly]

I did p3 like 3rd try

[winged spear]

use ||mOp||

[keen saffron]

i think id id p3 first try

[winged spear]

it makes him ridiculously easy

[keen saffron]

lol

[tribal compass]

ab?

[winged spear]

save your soul for ||ddark spam on his last phase||

[keen saffron]

[umbral night]

[umbral night]

Oh well

[winged spear]

[inland pawn]

i was

[winged spear]

use strength instead of shaman

just trust

[tribal compass]

The vessel is immortal, you fight over and over and over and over

[alpine citrus]

yeah

[unborn holly]

hes easy if you get the flow

[inland pawn]

shamans my main damage yo

[umbral night]

Thank you

[winged spear]

then get rid of MoP and use strength

[alpine citrus]

imo it's a lot easier with these bosses to use ur nail

[tribal compass]

Yes, enjoy the eternal climb to greatness

[compact wasp]

I will be so honest. What makes you think shaman is better than making your nail do more damage than a base shade soul

[tribal compass]

If you attempt all bindings the spells are essential

[empty lynx]

shamman is a good pick for p3 actually

[empty lynx]

okay so for phase 2 you can kinda just do this

[radiant oak]

I try to talk to you within your ability to understand, because not everyone as pro as you, if you beat Radiance, doesn't mean it's not hard for other player. Likewise, overconfidence makes u calm, but it's different for others, overconfidence may make them underestimate the bosses or even make mistakes they shouldn't make. This is my opinion

[inland pawn]

are you talking about maxed out nail? if so i dont have it

[compact wasp]

I would just combine both

[formal ridge]

https://tenor.com/view/click-the-bart-funny-bart-family-guy-gif-16902794461515045373

[inland pawn]

holy shit

[compact wasp]

Okay then that explains it

[alpine citrus]

yo what

[empty lynx]

It might take you like one extra shade soul without strength and pure nail but it's fine anyway

phase 2 sly barely has any hp

[inland pawn]

i have the one before it. cant find the last pale ore

[empty lynx]

i can tell you all of them if you want

[tribal compass]

nosk?

moth?

[inland pawn]

wdym moth

[tribal compass]

Well, there are only few moths

[empty lynx]

seer 300 essence reward
crystal peaks - hallownest crown
Deepnest - breakable wall (|| boss ||)
colossuem of fools - second trial
31 grubs reward
Ancient basin - room transition next to the tram station

[worthy peak]

okie... But that doesnt neccesarily mean it will have that affect for others. I dont think its fair to make the assumption that my mindset with overconfidence will always be the outlier...

[inland pawn]

i could js be missing the 31 grubs one

[winged spear]

harder than it looks imo

[empty lynx]

common

[empty lynx]

not that hard surprisingly

[tribal compass]

It is, but once you learn it it's easy, as with all things

[empty lynx]

mostly because A mark of pride B shade soul is that goated

it's generally faster than great slash only and probably easier to learn

[tribal compass]

Long nail gets the job done

[empty lynx]

that's interesting to know

[tribal compass]

Indeed

[warm oxide]

Bro u playing HK on mobile?

[alpine citrus]

ngl for phase 2 i stayed in the middle and played the slow game

i didn't use spells

[alpine citrus]

maybe ddark if i was under pressure

[empty lynx]

pretty good idea

[hot void]

just another me

[tropic nest]

Same length as fury gs only (3 cycles)

[warm oxide]

ppl play HK on mobile?

[tribal compass]

Real

[gleaming current]

Yesss

Pantheons may be hard and shit but they are fun ngl

[tribal compass]

I play hk on a calculator

[gleaming current]

Except fucking markoth obv

[tribal compass]

Its a good calculator

[warm oxide]

A calculator that has yt,insta,whatsapp,twitter and HK

[tribal compass]

Dont forget steam

[warm oxide]

@radiant oak Why did u stop typing

[winged spear]

I found it easier to ddark spam (only for last phase)

[warm oxide]

a passage is coming I can feel it

[tribal compass]

that could also work

we all pave different paths

[gleaming current]

Which boss?

[empty lynx]

I used to ddark spam for a good while but it's generally not a good idea

[empty lynx]

Sly

[gleaming current]

I beat sly on my first try btw

Today

[winged spear]

yeah, definitely very no skill and leaves you cooked when it's time for radiants, but well

[fringe moth]

is finishing the game in 40 hours bad ?

[gleaming current]

But radiant is gonna leave you cooked fs

[winged spear]

this was the only boss i've felt the need to do so

[empty lynx]

nice bro

[tropic nest]

No
Playtime is fake and means nothing

[empty lynx]

did you have fun

[gleaming current]

Bro in fact it is better compared to mine

[fringe moth]

i get it

[fringe moth]

YESS

[gleaming current]

I took 70 hours js to get sealed siblings ending

In my first playthrough

[fringe moth]

WOWIE

[empty lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/dab-me-up-dab-me-up-but-something-beautiful-is-missing-gif-8902167673945806588

Who gives a shit about playtime then

[radiant oak]

I'm not saying your mindset is an exception; I'm just saying your mindset isn't really suitable for people like me. Anyway, if you think having any mentality makes you better, then keep it

[fringe moth]

wait that's the wrong fucking gif bro

[fringe moth]

LOVE YA HOMIE

[worthy peak]

The thing is you said that overconfidence was strictly bad...

[empty lynx]

uhhhhh take two

[worthy peak]

it wasnt a doesnt work for anyone mindset

[gleaming current]

Damn beef

[fringe moth]

Im gonna try silksong

[vagrant hearth]

@daring copper check this out. I can't anymore :(

[fringe moth]

is it good as hk ?

[tribal compass]

I wouldnt know

[winged spear]

i've heard that it's much better from some people, or that it's alright from some, but nothing bad

[tribal compass]

its a lot more different from what I heard

more mature

[fringe moth]

hmm

[winged spear]

[empty lynx]

cant what

[lone anchor]

Its by the same devs

[fringe moth]

what do u mean by dat ?

[fringe moth]

ik ik

[empty lynx]

yea silksong's alright

[fringe moth]

i just never saw it

[lone anchor]

I think it's pretty good

[fringe moth]

off we go then

[empty lynx]

glhf

[gleaming current]

Hornets controls are a bit harder than knights tho

[fringe moth]

nah man nahh

[tribal compass]

🤷‍♂️

[fringe moth]

wwwwwhyyyyyyyy

[daring copper]

this is so fucked man

[gleaming current]

But you should have given the additional stuff like pantheons a try bro

[fringe moth]

hk was my first platform game and i love it but

[vagrant hearth]

I KNOWWWWW

[gleaming current]

Mine was blasphemous

[fringe moth]

that shit was the hardest thing i experinced after berserk

[fringe moth]

good start

[fringe moth]

i did all of it

112%

all ends

[radiant oak]

Overconfidence itself is not something worth learning from, but if you think overconfidence makes you better, can transcend yourself, achieve your unfinished goals, you should keep it

[gleaming current]

Ohh

I see

[fringe moth]

PATH OF PAIN WAS WHAT

IT WAS WWWWOAAH

[wispy willow]

Its harder in general

[gleaming current]

Blasphemous was hard but it seems like a cakewalk after hk

[wispy willow]

But the late game bosses arent as hard as hk

[fringe moth]

im sure all plats gonna be easier after hk

[gleaming current]

Also silksong requires very precise platforming as far as ik ryt ?

[wispy willow]

Scaling is weird movement is better is better imo

[fringe moth]

i get it yes

[gleaming current]

I don't intend to go even near it so idk

[wispy willow]

Eeehhh I wouldnt say very precise but yeah there are some relatively hard sections

[fringe moth]

someone said smoother

[gleaming current]

But yeah if we speaking lore in terms of lore why tf did pale king even get the pop built ? Was it some sort of platforming training for the hollow knight ???

[fringe moth]

u should try it sire its was so fun and beated the hell outta me

[wispy willow]

Movement is better 100% feels so nice, the power scaling is lineal as enemies also scale

[dusky coral]

Not "very precise" , but definitely harder than standard HK platforming

"Very precise" would be something like path of pain

[wispy willow]

Hollow knights power scaling is exponential and the late game bosses are pretty hard

[wispy willow]

There is a "path of pain" in silksong but it's def not as hard

[empty lynx]

ehhhh no not really

[fringe moth]

just three of them were really hard like NKG and radiance
and the traitor lord

[wispy willow]

Pv

[empty lynx]

sk platforming is weird it like sky rockets at first because new controls then down then up again then down then another yump and then it's all so easy from there i think

[pallid cove]

Guys I beat ||path of pain|| it took me 2 to 3 hours to get to the final room but then I had to log off but then took me around 30 minutes to get back, into the final room and taking me an hour to finish the final room

[winged spear]

traitor lord is REALLY hard without shade cloak, but he isn't really even close to top 3 if you have it

[empty lynx]

mostly because some abilities make the game very easy

[wispy willow]

Every enemy deals double damage tho and that's kinda hard to get used to

[empty lynx]

it might feel like that but you can learn traitor lord without sharp shadow (i assume that's the charm you meant. You can't fight traitor lord without shade cloak) pretty quickly

and then again he has a bit of a low health pool for a late game boss

[fringe moth]

for me he is hard ngl idk about u

[gleaming current]

Pure vessel ?

[fringe moth]

no the absolute one not that shit in da end of game

[gleaming current]

And how you forgot MARKOTH

PSNTHEON MARKOTH

💔

[fringe moth]

easy

easy asf

i say markoth is more easy than him

[tropic nest]

Learning how it works makes it a non issue, its consistent/predictable
annoying but not really a problem

[foggy sable]

tl being harder than pantheon markoth is a unique take

[gleaming current]

I don't face much difficulty with TL except the attack where he beats the ground and sends shockwaves

[fringe moth]

get it yes and people yapp on him

[gleaming current]

Usually I am in his close proximity when that happens so I don't get the time to shade cloak through it

[inner flicker]

3 and a half days for hk and ss…
Then a month break
This’ll go well

[hollow nova]

TL is crazy work for one of the last bosses you fight

[winged spear]

no, I don't mean the charm, I mean just the dash with i frames

[empty lynx]

because there are strats for him
and in p4 you can still apply them with alot of an easier time

[empty lynx]

yea you genuinely just can't fight traitor lord without shade cloak

[gleaming current]

Hornet is easier fs

[inner flicker]

Traitor lord is piss easy

[empty lynx]

debatable but hornet 2 is one hell of a bitch

[inner flicker]

Hornet 2 is harder than many of the bosses, sheerly because of her speed

[urban grotto]

he was so hard at first

[inner flicker]

She’s gonna stress me out a bit in P3ab
Like probably more than sly

[gleaming current]

Hornet 2 got me stuck in p3 for a long time btw

[tropic nest]

Narts

[inner flicker]

Yep

[gleaming current]

I beat her in hog but not p3

[empty lynx]

Hornet 2 is pretty wild and its mostly because she feels like a broken boss

[inner flicker]

I still like hornet 2 as a boss fight even if it isn’t as unique as the other harder boss variants

[gleaming current]

But I used the greatest charm of all time common sense which allowed me to attack her according to her patterns and finally beat her

[empty lynx]

i only attack her through pogos now tbh

[gleaming current]

Hornet 2 is a fun fight ngl

[iron night]

Guys im scared

[gleaming current]

Nosk feels like a chore I heavily dislike spammy mfs

He only spams

[inner flicker]

Nosk is just a pain

[gleaming current]

No real pattern to that fight

[empty lynx]

ok on a literal meaning of broken she sure has alot of bugs

[inner flicker]

Wosk is just glorified vengefly king with a nosk hitbox

[empty lynx]

Did you know she can genuinely leave the arena and die in kingdoms edge

[inner flicker]

They just had to make the scary boss annoying

[iron night]

Ever since the Digital Circus movie leaked, I've been trying to avoid spoilers. I've only seen one message about it, and I'm afraid it might be true. I WON'T SAY IT, I'M BEING KIND. But I'm scared because I don't know if the community is encouraging spoilers or if they're actually revealing the real ones.

[empty lynx]

yea and then she can do instashaws which are really funny but also bitchy

[inner flicker]

Soon as June 4th comes, I’m straight up turning some of my notifications off

Like OFF

[gleaming current]

Yess

[empty lynx]

she feels like she has the movement of lost kin, the physics of marmu, and the hopes and dreams of pure vessel

[gleaming current]

I do

[tropic nest]

Leaked

[inner flicker]

I’ve heard it’s been leaked

[iron night]

It was leaked

[gleaming current]

Also P4 is filled with dream bosses

[empty lynx]

that's fucked wth

[iron night]

I should do the same

[gleaming current]

Sharp shadow good for P4 ?

[tropic nest]

no

[empty lynx]

Which is why it feels more memorable but also
Weird

[inner flicker]

But thanks to my 1000 video watch later playlist it stands no chance against seeing spoilers

[placid fable]

Not worth it

[gleaming current]

I saw relyea use it that's why asked

[empty lynx]

it's pretty mid
sure it can help but you can get better at regular shade cloak, get the same results, and use 2 notches for something better

[urban grotto]

remove the last 2 words and the answer is the same

[tropic nest]

Uumuu downdash strats

[inner flicker]

Honestly I’m not even too scared about seeing spoilers
Since almost everyone doesn’t want to see them, who’s there to give them

[empty lynx]

relyea is like that second playthrough friend
he's trying his best to help but sometimes its just not a good idea to listen

[hollow nova]

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/yt-block/ #1 spoiler avoider ❤️‍🩹

Still gonna play it super safe

@ sonia

Honestly it’s even better for me

[empty lynx]

hi martlet from undertale yellow

I’m not gonna be on my phone the majority of the time I’m gonna be with my grandparents, which happens to be the month episode 9 is releasing

Hi!

[empty lynx]

wait would it be everyones' or everyone's

[hollow nova]

cooler logo than chrome

[urban grotto]

everyone’s

[tropic nest]

's

[hollow nova]

and chrome and firefox are the only two browsers ever

[inner flicker]

Everyone’s

[empty lynx]

yay

[warm portal]

Is this about the TADC episode 9 leaks?

[compact wasp]

me

[empty lynx]

yea

[warm portal]

I have a custom 3dprinted bubble popcorn bucket as well!

[copper spruce]

Gas leaks are better tbh

[urban grotto]

things that end in “s” are s’

[inner flicker]

With 1130 videos in my playlist I’ll never get bored and I’ll never need to go on my fyp and I’ll never see a single notification that gives me a single spoiler on a single bit of anything

[urban grotto]

otherwise it’s ‘s

[empty lynx]

oh?

[warm portal]

However, I haven't seen them myself thank god

[empty lynx]

not sure what correlation that is but sure i fw that lowk

[empty lynx]

yea i havent either and i dont think i plan too but that's still fucked up for someone to do

[cerulean summit]

i was scrollin tiktok earlier and the entire episode was just. there

[empty lynx]

especially shit like that like i fucking guess bro

[warm portal]

it's heartbreaking, honestly

[hollow nova]

isn't it in Portuguese or something

[warm portal]

Yeah, but there are subtitles

[cerulean summit]

not slowed down not sped up not cropped just had a few watermarks on it but otherwise it was just the whole thing in it's entirety

[hollow nova]

ic

[warm portal]

This is why I don't like most people 🙁

Also my internet is being an asshole

[solar rover]

p5 once again

[remote elbow]

Nkg is so redicoulusly insanely mindblowingly hard that I think ill never encounter a boss thats harder

[warm portal]

I hate PV more.

[remote elbow]

I've died to nkg so many times it's not even super fun anymore

[remote elbow]

Why

[solar rover]

nope its just that its tempo is fast that you find him unbearable

it is hard but not unbeatable

once you beat him it becomes easy

[warm portal]

I can actually (accidentally) no-hit regular radiance phase 1

[tacit spear]

Gg ^_^

Me...

[warm portal]

agree 112%

[remote elbow]

No I love him hes my favorite boss in the game but i mean that he's the hardest thing I've ever tried to do in a video game

[solar rover]

good for you

[remote elbow]

I did nkg no hit twice

[solar rover]

still true tho

[dusky coral]

That's not path of pain that's just a slightly inconvenient platforming sequence 🫩🫩

[remote elbow]

I think I got to stage 2 like 15 times and stage 3 3 times and I have like 100 attemps and 5h on him

[tacit spear]

I did flukemarm low gear with five hits ^_^

[remote elbow]

Impressive bro

[tacit spear]

(5hp and no charms)

[foggy sable]

eww flukemarm low equipment

ewewew

[tacit spear]

It wasn't too hard...

[empty lynx]

ewwwwww

flukemarm low gear dni

[dusky coral]

rad flukemarm itemless nail 0

[tacit spear]

Greyfire I don't think I mentioned this but I died at the same time I killed flukemarm >_<

[tacit spear]

No white spells?

[empty lynx]

told you that you just needed more time

[remote elbow]

Nkg is so redicoulusly hard he makes every boss and dream boss and obv every dream warrior easy

[foggy sable]

normal flukemarm low equipment

[foggy sable]

n o

[agile pewter]

y e s

[empty lynx]

bad

[foggy sable]

no

[remote elbow]

I'd say failed champion is the boss I found hardest but compared to nkg he's super easy

[foggy sable]

I will not be doing low equipment flukemarm in the near future

[tacit spear]

Unless you have no nail arts and base nail...

And no charms...

[foggy sable]

anything weaker than 04

[remote elbow]

Hes hard but tbh he's fine

[empty lynx]

no opal nobody is doing low gear flukemarm

why do you hate us

[remote elbow]

Oh yeah also tl

He sucks

[tacit spear]

No just greyfire ^_^

[empty lynx]

in no offense iam surprised you still struggle on tl you should try him again in godhome

[foggy sable]

evil

[tacit spear]

I want proof that greyfire can die to flukemarm and kill it at the same time ^_^

[empty lynx]

she nor anyone is doing it bro

[tacit spear]

It is her choice ^_^

[empty lynx]

too cruel

ok she did do 1 nail damage marmu but still

[foggy sable]

the closest I have is this
https://youtu.be/4knpiaaV0Vw

which was plenty enough for me

[tacit spear]

That's pretty good ^_^

[foggy sable]

I was helping someone with boss fights

[tacit spear]

I would spam shriek or vs ^_^

[foggy sable]

that is dive and vs only iirc

[remote elbow]

I just did thk after fighting nkg for like a trillion years and omg he's so redicoulusly easy its insane it feels like fighting a dream warrior but better amd more fun

[tacit spear]

I might've cheated with howling wraiths...

[foggy sable]

wraiths is so convenient

[remote elbow]

Hes so slow ans you have so many healing opportunities you can basically always be at max health

[foggy sable]

I remember learning it once for p042

[remote elbow]

I missed healing so much bruh cuz you kinda don't have many healing windows with nkg

[tropic nest]

there are windows on everything that isnt puffer

[remote elbow]

Nah uh

[copper spruce]

If wraiths is so good where is wraiths 2

[foggy sable]

wraiths is the weakest of the white spells

[agile pewter]

https://youtu.be/QU8yIwvPpJc?si=dUNhib_gQWxki8MS

[foggy sable]

but it is good in flukemarm

[agile pewter]

[foggy sable]

surely it can't be worse than rabono wk

so maybe I could try sometime

[agile pewter]

Surely

[foggy sable]

it can't be thaaaaaat bad

right

[agile pewter]

Surelyyyyyy

[inland pawn]

I BEAT PANTHEON 3
