wdym ||the spikes hurt them too, it doesnt really seem like it||
Where does it say that
Look mate just keep practicing and you'll be fine, if you'd still struggle by tomorrow I'll be back at home and I could make an educational video for you. But it seems I have given basically all the advice I can
wait TKD ||the big glass orb thing at the top do i need to soul blast that? or is it just decor?||
||"spells will clear most/all of these, they will hurt her too" did u mean the spells instead of spike||
Refer to this also
Yes
Tkd Neoland citizen now

The ||lighthouse?||
Climb it and go inside, there should be a lever
Hit that
oh wait nvm need to ||dream nail it||
Maybe idk lmao I can't remember too much
there is a lever there
Hit it
Then go back outside, something should have changed
yeah i did, ill go explore, thanky you
alright
ahh i see
oh cheers thanks TKD i got what i needed
So when he’s sending those balls at u in rapid succession move towards him
111% without that boss?
Oh r u practicing for ||pantheons?||
👍
||for his ground pound, just double jump moving in ONLY one direction, don't turn around mid jump.
For his orb shooting and orb orbit attack, there's no need to double jump since it causes you to get hit by soul tyrant's hitbox. You can hit him with a single jump, swinging upwards||
^
is there a map for ||the abyss||
Yes but I forgot
Alright I'll reiterate some points. ||For the weird float across the floor you can get around 3 pogos in if you do it well enough. 2 is alright tho. Second thing is for the fake out dive use shade cloak, or d dark if you have soul. For the orb attack start on the ground to stop there bring more than once ball in the area at once||
Where to get it
It's a small area anyways
yeah
||shade cloak||
yeah
Yeah head out then
im gonna go explore the important goofy thing on my map
had i realized i can attack down in ||watcher knight fight|| it wouldve been so much easier
Ok so the ||abyss doesn’t have a map as it connects with basin so u should get the abyss updated if u have the basin map||
ahh alrihgt
Pogo? 
thanks
Np
ye now i know what yall mean by that
I got to the ||2nd phase, he did dive spam then ball thing then dive spam again, I died to the 2nd ball thing||
You have beat him before right?
If you're referring to beating ||soul tyrant in the overworld, possibly, I don't recall||
You should have to even access him where u are
Not true
Wdym not true
||I had to fight white defender in pantheon 4 and I never even fought him in the overworld||
Oh wait
Yea no those aren’t needed for the ||pantheons||
Have u encountered ||st|| in ||p4?||
Yes
Nah I never did
Shame
Then that’s how u have him in ||hog||
||then how on earth is NKG in hog||
Auto
Damn
You can make them
I'll probably make (spoilers) ||godhome ones|| since I couldn't be bothered to do low% fights
It's funny how I know exactly what I'm doing wrong yet I'm still taking damage from the exact thing I'm doing wrong
Also I js realised that i could've sat at the bench and refilled my soul so I had full soul
That js doesn't work
Wonderful
Lmao
I thought u did a few alrdy
I did all of the ones up to ||cry guard||, some were better than others
cough cough ||almost died to gruz mother||
I FRICKING DID IT
Patience is key
And I survived with decent HP
If I can master that I can survive long enough to at least encounter ||pv||
What could help is doing the fight on ||ascended, cuz if you can beat it on ascended just once, you will basically be able to defeat it normally easily||
||double damage?||
yeah
I did pretty good
DIED though
This is harder
Maybe I ||dash for the fake dive||
Mhm
Yeah maybe I should stop JUMPING
Maybe
Are u sure i should be doing ||ascended||
It's making me worse
I don't even need ||ascended || that was easy
Melon, hello
what are you practicing for
I js mastered ||soul tyrant||

Now I'm going back to ||pantheon 4, killing every boss, encountering pure vessel, and the practice him||
which boss are you stuck on
⬆️
I'm blind 💀
I'm gonna pretend i didn't die to ||traitor lord||
💀
Shh
It was a little mistake
It's fine everyone makes mistakes
Fully Cheesing these bosses
I do love myself some boss 🧀
whatever you need to do
get that ||112%||
Mhm
No
Ur cooked 💀
At least he looks cool
M
|| hog time||
Interesting attack set
||spike ground attack (essentially grimms spike attack, wierd sword shoot and dash||
it's mostly a way faster ||thk||
just killed ||uubuntuu|| do i need to get something before i continue exploring the new areas?
killed who
the ||electric jellyfish|| i can not spell its name
||isn't PV like the 4th hardest boss in the game||
which areas are you talking about
I'd say 2nd 
So ur telling me ||NKG is easier||
yes
||fog canyone|| i think its called, the place with the ||acid and jellyfish||
yeah 4th ||pv, nkg, floorless markoth, and absrad||
no which areas can you not get to
Yeah how cooked am I out of 10
||nkg|| is easier if you learn his attack patterns
and ||markoth|| just needs a lot of patience
oh mb, nah im just wondering to the left of the ||chamber where you kill the boss theres a drop down with different tunnels n stuff||
It took me ||20+ tries to beat regular radiance, ur telling me I've even more cooked than that||
you need to go there
you should be able to
yeah but I cant cause its blocked by ||acid||
I'ma send the clip of me fighting it a lil bit and popping off
||cdash|| off the wall
alright thanks
Please do
||https://www.xbox.com/play/media/g4WteUCttz ||this should help, it shows how to avoid the attacks and stuff
||pv took me exactly 20|| attempts also, so youre good, for now...
Filmed by yours truly
I'm subscribing to u
Imma go watch brb
It's an Xbox clip, not a yt one
So you can't lmao

Ok 👍
||I'm sorry, 1 HIT IS 4 DAMAGE||
only in ||ascended||
No, I was on a||scended||
Oh thank fuck
It's just 2
So basically it's ||impossible without fireball||
No, but it really helps
nah
not quite
just JUMP
This used the exact same charm setup you had btw
thats literally the only thing jou need to beat ||pv||
every single one of his attacks can be almost fully countered by jumping
So I assume this js a case of "get good" with no healing opportunities
Unless stagger yes
when he staggers you can heal 1
Also I have a question regarding this ||closed door||
And you'll probably get hit
||quickfocus|| allows two
But that means less DPS since you sacrifice a charm
and ||his focus circles|| allow 1-3
which one
Not worth

||The one with lifeblood in godhome||
but it also means doubling you healling
But if you just
you won't need to
||it gives you lifeblood in pantheons if you do bindings||
in the rest rooms
So you're telling me there's a purpose to ||all bindings p1 and p2||
yes
apart from flexing
Not all at the same time, but yes
I actually tried ||AB p1 yesterday, short story, I died to vengefly||
happends
So I assume the ||more bindings the more lifeblood||
I have done that too
you can do them seperately
it gives you the same thing
||If the video I watched yesterday is correct 16 bindings is 4 lifeblood||
and yes
16 is 5 actually
How many ||bindings is that||
8 I think
I can do ||1 binding at a time right||
So ||nail binding resets the nail to the basic nail right, and my strength should increase that||
||no it makes your damage 13||
with ||nail4||
||strength does work||
||That what I meant to say, the strength will increase my dmg||
||Oh god p1 is fucking nail brothers||
||they usually only attack 1 at a time||
||MMC so big and hard. Hardest boys ever in the history of video games||
almost none of their attacks can hit you if you chill at the top of a wall
I feel like ||I should js do shell binding||
||nail binding|| is way easier
I'll try that if I die
just practice them more
I'll do ||p1 and p2, 1 binding at a time||
GL
Yo TKD 
Hello
Changed my mind ||pv practice||
How did you find my little practical joke?
TKD, ||does PURE vessel have a wall||
Yes
yes
I'll find it one sec
Icl ||the dreamers could've been some good boss battles||
Anyways got it
I will send three walls, I probably wouldn't open the third or fourth part of it
||Pure Vessel wall by Sniskus#4870
This Wall contains massive late game spoilers!
Pure Vessel will be referred to as PV
Attacks:
Triple Slash: PV will slash 3 times towards the player and move closer to them for every slash. To dodge this attack, PV can be dashed through using Shade Cloak but Desolate Dive/Descending Dark are also good alternatives; The recommended way however is to jump, slash down (pogo) to parry and hit PV on their first slash. It is also possible to jump/dash over PV if the Knight so wishes. When the Knight has passed PV they should turn around and get 1-2 hits on it; it is also possible to use Vengeful Spirit/Shade Soul instead of the Nail. If the Knight passes PV swiftly it is possible to heal here.
**Lunge: **PV will draw its nail and lunge towards the Knight. This attack can be dodged by similarly to Triple Slash, using Shade Cloak or Desolate Dive/Descending Dark. Just like for Triple Slash it is recommended that the Knight do a jump followed by a down slash (pogo) on PV to maximize damage. After the Knight has passed PV they should turn around and slash it from behind. Again, like with Triple Slash, the Knight may use Vengeful Spirit/Shade Soul instead of the Nail; it is also possible to heal if the Knight passes PV quickly.
Parry: PV brings up its nail in a defensive stance to block any incoming attack. If PV blocks any attack it will slash in the direction it is facing. The Knight should not attack PV during this and should instead heal or reposition themselves for the next attack if need be. It is possible to use Descending Dark here as the second explosion will damage PV. If the Knight by mistake hits PV’s nail during this move they should immediately use Desolate Dive/Descending Dark or Shade Cloak to pass through PV; The Knight does not have time and/or the distance required to turn around and dash away from PV if its nail is hit.||
||Soul Pillars: PV will jump up in the air and slam the ground with its nail, this causes the arena to be covered in massive spikes after a short delay. When the floor is illuminated, after PV’s slam, the Knight should place themselves in the centre of two “to-be pillars”; Here it is also helpful to jump as the spikes get thinner closer to the top, giving the Knight more room for failure. If a heal is started as the floor is illuminated it is possible to heal safely here. It is worth noting that PV’s hitbox is smaller while the spikes are up, allowing the Knight to get close to PV right after the slam. It is not suggested that the Knight attacks while the spikes are up as they will get knocked back and possibly take damage from a spike.
Soul Daggers: PV will shoot an arch of daggers in the Knight’s direction. This attack can be dodged with a well timed Shadow Cloak or Desolate Dive/Descending Dark. If you decide to use shade cloack, if you time it correctly you can dash towards PV and get a few hits in. Make sure to not jump to high before dashing otherwise you'll hit other daggers||
||Focus: PV will focus, similar to the Knight when healing; unlike the Knight however PV will surround itself in a big circular area that after a short delay explodes. Shortly after, six smaller circles will appear randomly across the arena which, after a small amount of time, explodes in the order they were created. PV will only start using this attack as when it reaches ⅔ of its max hp. This attack can be easily countered by dashing out of the main circle or by using a well timed Desolate Dive/Descending Dark which will also damage PV. After the main circle has exploded the Knight should make sure to clear any smaller circle they may be located inside of and proceed to use up to 3 Vengeful Spirits/Shade Souls if they have the required SOUL to do so.||
||Void Tendrils: PV will open its cloak and reveal multiple void tendrils. After a short delay the tendrils will lash out, covering nearly 60% of the arena. This attack can be dodged by using a high jump followed by Monarch Wings or Desolate Dive/Descending Dark. If the Knight has enough time it is possible to “pogo” PV or hit it from behind. PV will only start using this attack as when it reaches ⅓ of its max hp.
Movement: PV can teleport and backstep to traverse the arena or avoid the Knight. If the Knight remains off the ground for too long, PV will jump towards the Knight’s location.
***Charms: ***
Suggested charm build for Non-Radiant PV: Unbreakable/Fragile Strength + Mark of Pride + Steady Body + Soul Eater
Suggested charm build for Radiant PV: Unbreakable/Fragile Strength + Shaman Stone + Mark of Pride + Steady Body + Soul Eater
The Knight should use charms to maximize dps or per hit. Using Soul Gathering Charms is also suggested to maximize the SOUL gained so as to always have some SOUL left for unexpected maneuvers, such as a panic Desolate Dive/Descending Dark to avoid damage.
Notes: In this battle Desolate Dive/Descending Dark is your best friend, try to always save some SOUL for it if you ever need it. Also, if you are attempting this you are in the top few percent of all Hollow Knight players, so don’t give up!||
The average Sniskus wall
There you go
Yrue
Anyways @thick wing
Or @rugged veldt can answer this too lols
I read the 1st and 2nd wall
Good
So i assume the 3rd and 4th wall are later attacks?
What
any tips for ||p5 failed champ||? and yes, i know about the stagger exploit
Well then you should be fine
get him down once and full heal
Just don't die to the start
i enter it with like 6 health tho
If you knock him down you win the fight
that's loads
||when he jumps, i always either dash towards him taking damage, or dash away from him, taking damage||
Ok
dies of spoilers
the rocks never hit me but they can be distracting
Idk why I said ok 🤣
spoilers
what did i spoiler?
||dash||
you didn't
ah
Is there any charms I'll need for ||pv||
||quickfocus is great||
Untrue
no it's not
||strength qs sbody shaman and nmg?||
bruh
yes
it lets you get in 1 extra heal it sucks
gud' 'nuf
I feel like I could replace ||nmg for spore shroom||
please don't
you can only heal once, meaning it doubles your heal
Also all of hkdisc just died lmao
or use a dps charm to kill it faster lol
If you just don't get hit, you won't need it
is there a three notch charm that doubles your dps?
dps
DPS 100%
||qslash
||
he has that on already
.
yeah what's he gonna get rid of
Barely allows you to sustain HP, if you go full DPS and stun him as much as possible
to use ||quick focus||
Who said I'm changing anything
I don't plan to
Good, don't listen to this goofy guy trying to get you to heal
||honestly the best charm is just grinding him in hog||
look at my name
Tags
I'm speaking from experience

Wait ||wouldn't Grubsong be better than NMG||
No
probably
if you don't use ||narts||
I used ||sprintmaster||
wait whats ||nmg||, it stands for ||no major glithces||
no
||nailmaster glory||
||nailmaster's glory||
||nail masters glory||
You are NOT a Neoland Citzen, @neat karma deport this mf
No not that, also Krist allowed it
Yes
jou cant pogo him with ||narts||
Do u lots want me to record my first ||HOG PV attempt||
I am a citizen of neoland
Shre
and pogos counter half his attacks
I was talking about the other practical joke
Which is?
what did you do
#hk-help ? Yes that is a joke
Roma...
Who's that
Bruh. Look at incoming on kt
Bruh Krist you even reacted to it 
I still don't know who that is
The larger the party, the more intimate it is. The more there are of us there are, the less connected we are.
Some person who declined and then pulled a clover for some reason
Oh
Who's clover
hand reveal 
I had to put the camera on a strap on my gaming chair to even record it
lol
The person who beat ||anyrad|| other than Anika
fireborn?
I was surprised I did so well
you did do pretty good
that's an idea
#help regulars lol
A painful one
So melon, I can already assume what ur gonna say I did wrong but tell me anyway
yeah ik
#hk-help regulars*
FTFY
you just need to dodge better
Knew it
you know what you need to do clearly
I got off ||2 heals during the stagger||
Consult the amazing video I did
You won't normally
And I don't even have ||quick focus|| equip
only heal once
You got lucky with rng
you'll get hit more often than not
Hm ok
Imma go do a few more runs of him and ill return with hopefully a "I BEAT HIM"
A few 
took me 30 mins
I'll come back after 5 attempts
gl
For 10 days straight

Imma beat it today I bet
Tbh I think it took me a solid 50 at least for me to do it twice
same I think
erm probably not
tbh I stuggle with ||not walking onto where they are||
the white line is so tempting
I walk into then when they're up
Come back in 1.5hrs, you have all the help we can really give, it's a case of just practice at this point
lol

gl
Alr, I'll come back in 93 minutes
Fair
Fellow UK citizen
Let's go
Though I'm in Greece rn 💀
Wait what the fuck isn't it like midnight over there
no it's 9 30
Oh
pm
Depends what side you're on I guess,
Wait are you from WA then?
no nsw
Ah
Sydney mf
NSW is neat
something something internet
probably because there's like 500 of them 
Real
Playing aggressive isn't the way to go
Haven't met a North Australian either
Understood
It's usually not
Getting an extra hit in but losing a mask is generally a bad scenario. You should always be at least to some extent defensive because the boss has more hp than you do
Stfu tkd
I feel like I'm losing damage by ||dashing through his dash instead of Pogoing||
Sydney is peak Australia
only ||dash through the swords||
save it for when you'd get hit otherwise
||Sharp Shadow is a good way to compensate||
🙂
||ss|| kinda sucks though
Uluru is peak Australia. The rest is fields Australia

Anyways I swear I’ve been to jervis bay but I can’t recall going there lol
What's that about the Waltzing Matilda by the way? Something about a billabong tree?
Is there a slot?
not really
💀
he stole a sheep and killed himself
I’m Australian but I don’t know that song that well
||Grubsong? Are you insane using grubsong for someone who hits you for two masks?||
to explain it badly
What's a billabong
I've only used ||1 spell in my like 4 runs||
stop
What's a billabong
use ||fireball|| more
No like what is it's real world counterpart
It’s a kind of pond of sorts
lake
(as Australia doesn't exist)
That’s the word
I need to work out how to avoid being hit
Ohhhh okay that makes a lot of sense thanks
when he does ||focus||
I saw an article on this woman who went on a rant about how everyone u meet from au is actors and I f u travel to au it’s a different place
The answer to that I think is ||sprintmaster||
and use ||dive|| when you're on top of him
The what now
66% health
How do I tell?
he'll do the ||focus|| attack
What's that
||like a big circle that does damge||
What are y’all talking about
and some smaller ones
Dude I haven't even gotten there yet
I know what attack ur on abt but I haven't gotten there
just practice some more
||pv and australia||
Well not Australia anymore
Yep we are talking abt me doing ||pure vessel||
Oh ||pv, pv|| is hard at first but once you get the hang of it you destroy it
Yea Ik
What attack trips you up the most
Tags
spoiler tags
^
Hard to say really
I don’t think they’ve gotten that far into the fight
for ||dash and triple slash|| jump straight up
Grev stop lurking
and ||shade dash through the swords||


||Oh well a lot of it is telegraphs, for the triple slash attack either dash through (be careful) or jump over. For its sword pillars ddark||
Fr
Yep
We are acting like I'm not getting hit
Or have soul at all
Oh
Great the one thing I struggle with against the 2nd hardest boss in the game
||For sword pillars try to go into the right spot, if you can’t ddark||
Im not pogo ing tho
you need to
Do it then it is an amazing tool for damage
it really hard if you don't
It's already hard
it's harder 
It’ll make it easier
I actually haven’t played hk in a while
Yk what I'm gonna record a ||pv|| battle rq, brb
I remember doing that
prolly 10th time now
Name change yay
So we are acting like I'm js supposed to know how to do that
anyfree
True
Just copy the contents of the video
Real
I don’t think it’s that easy 💀
Just become the knight in real life, easy
Exactly
Oh damn, things have changed so much now
Wdym 😭
I used to be able to just copy actions in a video and win
Yea but ur prolly goated
Like how I beat Magnus Carlson in chess I just watched a video on how to win chess
is my video lel
I was joking around
Bye
Real
byee
I beat Messi in a 1v1 cause I just watched some YouTube
Cya
||don't dash through him generally, try to pogo on him, bcs if he does his tripple strike then dashes, ur dead||
^^^^
Never try and ||dash through him||
||I see that you take the most damage with the sword pillars, your main thing is that you move too much after positioning yourself correctly||
True
#trust yourself
I really don't trust myself but we go again
That’s what messes me up sometimes, I don’t trust myself
Ok ima dip cause it’s getting late cya guys 
Night
lol
I messed up again
I’ve been able to easily do ||radiant abs rad|| because of ||any radiance||
You can do it, keep on going
I jumped when he was doing the ||sword flurry||
||btw, during fights, if you need to heal, don't try going for healing, try not taking damage instead||
Once you jump ||pogo or dash||
^^
I just cannot get into HK for some reason every time I think of opening it I immediately decide not to
tag btw
The ||little sword flurry attack I mean||
you mean the pillars?
Nooo
oh
He means the projectiles/nails.
The ||lunge||
This
Yup
||dash through that and hit him twice||
Just ||dash through em||
This is gonna take months 😭
If your ||shade cloak isn’t recharged (it should be recharged)usually you don’t have to do anything, when I move with that attack I take damage||
It won’t
||No hollow knight boss should take months unless it’s modded||
I have ||sprintmaster||
Kinda can't
Disgusting
||I use it for soul tyrant||
Ew
Fine what do u reccomend then
look at my build in the video btw
Why can't I see the spoiler
It won't click
||Strength Q slash soul catcher shaman||
||that’s my basic build||
Nvm now I can
So no ||sbody?||
I wouldn't use ||soul catcher|| as you get enough soul uring the fight already ad you don't use that many ||spells||
no
||I haven’t made one for specifically pv since spell twister and shaman are useless||
So I shouldn't use ||shaman||
||use shaman, longail, strength, and Q slash||
I have never used ||sb in my life except for any rad||
Bro there are better charms than ||longnail||
||probably not if you want you could use heart or quick focus||
not rlly for ||pv||
I've been told not to use ||QF||
don't
Oh
I also don't even have the ||notches||
Sorry
I have 2
GET THOSE
Go back and get them then, you shouldn’t even be attempting ||godhome|| without all of them
||nothcmax b4 u go in godhome ||😭
oh, for ||QF?||
Exactly
I completely forgot I had ||legacy charm costs|| on
||I wouldn't be 111% if I was missing notches||
yes you would
||notches don't give %||
I’m an Idiot
This is my build
remove ||heart||
Omds
Sorry for giving you bad advice
I have the 3 best charms in the game what else are you asking me to do
||use dashmaster if ur dashing a lot||
I'll pretend I didn't read that
what?
I am not using ||dashmaster||
||bro dashmaster is the go to charm for pv||
Too bad it helps
one of the best charms in the game but ok
Fix your spelling
no need to be toxic m8
not u
him
Oh sorry
But I'd rather listen to you guys seeing as you're probably more experienced than me
Probably don’t listen to me about charms though
||either that or longnail, which is what I use, but seeing as you dash so much I would use dashmmaster||
I shouldn't even be ||dashing||
I've been told different charm builds so I don't know what I'm doing
yea but seeing as you are, take advantage of ||dashmaster||
whats goin
Yeah good idea you won’t be using ||spells|| much
ooh which fight
Me and ||pure vessel have beef||
||you use spells after pogoing on him for the tripple slash...||
oh
||pv||
||spells are definitely super useful||
I don't even ||pogo him||
||I’ve never used them before in pv fight, I should start using them though||
||dive is like a must for someone learning and spirit can be amazing if used at the correct times||
So ur asking me to waste ||3 notches||
you should. ||90% of their attacks are avoided by either pogoing or jumping over them||
I love ||ddark||
I don't have the skill to maintain ||health and do spells||
||this is why its recommended to jump before every attack, because if it doesnt help yo evade it wont affect eitherways||
||you see the focus ability where he spawns a bunch of bubbles? DDark next to him right as he's spawning the bubbles, it will give you an insane amount of damage||
I'm gonna actually lose it, I don't want advice for that, I've gotten there twice and died both times
If you use ||more ddark youll lose less health by the iframes, effectively taking care of part of the issue||
that's the part you need advvice for then...
Is it?
It’s still helpful to get advice for parts you haven’t made it up to
@harsh kraken what are you having most issues with
Let me phrase it like this, if I can't get to that part, I won't need advice for that part
I'll be right back ill record my fight for a third time
Then try going for the approach i gave and become a ||bunny, its probably the best way to avoid their attacks||
Any attack youre struggling with?
I'll record it brb
Anyways goodnight yall
Regarding ||PV's focus attack, stay right outside the big circle.
Although, I was told that the explosions can spawn anywhere, it never happened to me when I was staying right outside the big circle, iirc.||
Can I politely ask everyone to stop telling me about that part
Sure.
Replies to the message saying they dont want to hear about something with the thing they dont want to hear about,,
Yeah, but I did that, because I thought that what the other person suggested didn't work.
I wanted to say what worked for me, regarding that attack.
Yeah it looks like youre being too agressive and going all over them
||if he does his tripple swing attack, dash twice after him and hit him, if he does his dash dash once and hit him||
does ||nosk|| regen health everytime you die and come back to it
Not really just the wrong mindset, also cool poster!
he's not, I would say he's being too little agressive
Bestie theyre getting killed because they didnt leave a single space between the two
All bosses and enemies do
what charms should i use for it
Also I reccomend u watch this TKD
An experienced player sure would be wayy more offensive, but theyre not
?tag uncspoilers @bold sigil
🔹 An unnecessary spoiler is a spoiler (even a tagged one!) that was not directly requested by the user being helped, such as help referencing in-game content that the player has not necessarily reached - Charms build containing Charms they haven’t found, for example. These spoilers, though generally good-intentioned, can harm a player’s experience as any other spoiler would. Remember the game is non-linear; Always make sure to know what a player has and where they’ve reached. A simple screenshot of their map and inventory would tell you all you need to know.
deleted the message
Yes
What do u suggest
As i said earlier a good way to be defensive AND doing damage is to ||pogo, or ddark if you arent able to||
Try it, start literally every attack he does with a jump, if its ||one you can pogo then good, if not its probably the spike one, but that would give you more time for them to hit you so its still a win||
||you took dammage because you dashed in that video btw||
Never needed but super useful
pretty mmuch needed for||pv||
Weren't u the one who told me to use ||dashmaster||
It’s about balance
||The games mostly about combining your abilities, dash will not be able to do all the jobs out there by itself, sometimes you gotta use wings, sometimes you gotta ddark, sometimes you gotta pogo, and thats okay||
yea bcs ur ||dashing so much||
Alright so basically, if you do want to keep ||dashing, what I would do is pogo the dash attack, but dash through the triple slash, then follow it immediately with a shade soul as it will double hit. If you consult the video I sent ages ago it's what I did||
but if you stop, put on ||longnail||
So let me get this straight ||u tell me to dash master then tell me I'm dying because of it||
Honestly ||longnails not really the best||
Oh, that's my favourite ||spell.||
||id say heart is more useful than longnai||
Because it is.
Honestly ignore what all these NPCs are saying, all the advice is getting lost
what charms should i use for ||nosk||
||u r dying bcs of shadedash not charging up fast enough, but I'm only trying to go with your playstyle||
(It 100% is yeah)
Can we erm, maybe focus on the not getting hit part before we focus on ||spells||
Agree!
Okay, read the first part of the . message
Its not my playstyle
you said it is...
When
||shaman stone, quick focus & spell twister||
||shaman mark of pride and either grubsong and steady body or spell twister||
you said you ||dash|| because you want to...
The ratio doc I made is showing truth, 3:1 is not good, it gets too chaotic
Because its easier ||than pogo||
...
Also tkd stop lying you are NOT a neoland resident
But it makes you get hit
thanks guys
so I'm trying to make it better...
Krist approved
So ur trying to make it better by telling me to use a charm then telling me I'm dying because of it
It might be easier but it cant handle all the weight by itself, you have to try different stuff, if you dont wanna pogo thats okay, maybe try ||double jumping||
Yk what I've had enough I'm removing ||shaman and dash master||
well if you want to pogo, be my guest, it is the better option
So I mean basically if you want to continue ||dashing|| be prepared to die. You must adopt the pogo strat, at least for the ||dash attack|| or you will get fucked over by the boss. Unless you want to wait for godlike rng, you probably won't win using your strategy
just try adopting the strat from my video, you don't need to perfect it and you can ake some changes if it's too hard but I would say that is prolly one of the best strats for ||pv||
||pogo, or wings, or ddark, or anything else, the point is you cannot repeat the same thing iver and over again until it works, you have to try new stuff||
This is all im going to say, you can use my advice, my charm set which works well. My video literally showing how to dodge all these attacks and counter perfectly. Or you can use your own less useful and not refined strategy, which will result in more pain and attempts for you. You can also listen to the jumbled mess of the others. But adopting their strategies whilst also using mine probably won't end well.
ORRRR you can make your own playstyle by yourself, just make sure to mix it up a bit and use some of your other abilities
In the end it's your choice, but I am finished with this convo
Use my resources I sent if you want.
which is what i did
I have to scroll up to find ur video don't i
click the message I reacted to...
I was talking about TkD
He mentioned a video which I assume he posted for me to see
he posted that wayyyyyyyyyy earlier lol
💀
Who said jump for every attack
me ig?
Horrible advice
For you
if you don't want to relly 100% on RNG
I am not you
still prolly one of the only ways
You're giving me 2 choices
oyu just need to practice the strat
Rng or become a pro gamer
yea?
Neither of those are gonna work for me
then there's no way to beat him...
Then why am I even bothering
just practice...
||dash through his tripple slash and jump over his dash||
Hi yall. Seeking hints pls!
||I have unlocked city of tears but not surr if i should go back to earlier areas? I haven't beaten mantis lords yet.||
Looking for hints for which direction I should head
That's what I've been trying to do
||yes, you can get out but there's a bunch of stuff in city which is extremmely good, you wana hop in a vc so you can screenshare where you're headed?||
Im definitely underpowered for ||soul sanctum which I have unlocked||
There's really no right way in hollow knight, just walk around and you'll get there
keep practicing, you'll get consistent eventually... ||pv is meant to be hard||
Im on ps4 so I dont think I can screenshare
ah alr
Wheres the fun in hard
I am not enjoying this
pretty much everything when you get good at it
I'll be back later, I'm gonna go do this a few more hours and make 0 progress
The map is getting pretty big for walking randomly LOL ||the only paths I can think of are Mantis Lords, Soul Sanctum, Lake of Unn, crystal cave, fog canyon.||
||Maybe fog canyon? I actually didnt explore that area so much and went right down to queen's station and fungal wastes||
Feel free to do what u want, that's the point of hollow knight
Been playing as blindly as possible until I really cant think of where to unlock next
As I've said, feel free to roam around, there's really nothing else u can do
Alrighty then, must be something i missed. Maybe i'll go back to earlier maps
Thanks
I understand, I know what I'm doing wrong but I'm too stressed to improve
I js wanna have fun and think but it's difficult when I'm stressed for no reason
Ohhhh maybe i should save up for the ||lantern, then explore the dark areas||
Good idea
?tag spoilers
🔹 Ensure Discord’s spoiler tagging is used around spoilers (Charms, bosses, locations, etc.) to be considerate of multiple conversations taking place. Two vertical bars on either side of text will tag it as a spoiler - ||This is a spoiler.|| > ||This is a spoiler.|| Alternatively, adding /spoiler at the start of a message will tag it.
🔹 If you have sent an untagged message, you must either edit it to include spoiler tags or delete it.
Also please spoiler tags
I think I'll log off and retry later
Done! Sorry
Hmm maybe i can take some screenshots of my map?
I would explore ||soul sanctum||
either ||soul sanct or farm geo for lantern||
||Wewww hahaha I noped outta there bec of the teleporting wizard enemy . Beating the first one was tough, so i noped when i saw another one as a 'normal' enemy. But i'll give it a go!||

||wait for them to start the attack,hit once and run away||
alright thanks
and repeat
||Also if you have soul, vengeful spirit damages them even when mask is closed iirc. Also if theres space above them you can try to just pogo||
ahh alright thanks
But generally what roma said
omd there's a shortcut above it

There are platforms that you have to parkour across
But if you fall you fall a long way

what that lol
bruh
|| an area above kings pass||
ah true so do i just head up there and look around
he asked for charm recomendations dude
yeah pretty much
The channel rule is that you arent allowed to mention anything they dont have yet, you should ask for their charm inventory to see if they have it
||What am i lookin for speficily or is it obvious||
|| its a lanter thingy that u smak untill it goes red||
thanks
np
||yes||
How?
i mean its ez anyway
