||quick slash,strength,shamans,nmg ig and soul eater||
les go that's exactly what I'm using
||why nmg||

||steady body is gooder||
tbh at this point i only really enter help when someone wants low gear ||gpz|| help
(ie basically never)
I used ||compass on that slot for my first rad abs rad|| clear
well up to them
||personally never use it
also useless if you only upslash||
But yeah apparently ||steady body|| is really good
I never use sideslash
ah
whr
bcs ||abs rad||
spoilers 
no
bro a way of hitting direction doesn't require a spoiler 💀
this SMH
LMAO
omghi tkd 
Omghi
hyd 
Gud hbu
pretty decently bad
i suppose
Fair
should I try ||charmless abs rad rad?||
@bold sigil ur all good, it happens all the time
ty for spoilering 
||eater || 
if you wanna 
It would prob take all day
||true,sharp shadow instead
||
||eater|| is good wtf... 
||eater || is EVIL
WHAT
What happened to the avatar?)
wdym
The servers icon? Its pride month
True,,
Otso what were you gonna say
Just respond the same as you to anubis
I feel like ive cut ya off several times already LMAO
Im too slow at typing
Randomly pick
Fight the easier ones first lol
For example?
||MMM.||

Hey TKD, hru
Any progress with ||PV?||
Did you manage to beat them a few times?
||mossy, Vfk, false knight, mantis lords kinda?, soul warrior, broken vessel, and Nightmare King Grimm
||
which ones have you already done
Oh I logged off
I see.
That reminds me, I'm getting back on
Okay.
Nice!
U see normally to say I've "mastered" a boss, I'd have to beat them 4-5 times, but I think for ||PV I'll aim for 2-3 kills||
|| nkg? || lol
||soul master is also pretty easy||
Okay i will try it
||don't forget to use elegy it's pretty op||
||easy ones are false knight, hornet 1, flukemarm, moss charger, mantis lords, and soul master||
i probably forgot some
You've mastered a boss whenever you're feeling confident enough that you can beat them in the ||pantheon|| so take your time and beat them as many times as you want, until you think that you can beat them in the ||pantheons.||
I was practicing ||NKG and PV|| for 2 days until I was feeling confident enough that I could beat them in the last ||pantheon.||
Ye
Unfortunate.
I mean charms
The ones we recommended
In all of the help we gave earlier
I genuinely forgot lol
Scroll up
I'll js use what I'm using
When I logged back a few mins ago I changed one of my charms
||Like you, I was using Shade Dash for their lunge and triple slash attacks.
But you can pogo the lunge attack.
For the focus attack, stay right outside the big circle and the explosions won't spawn on you most times.
Ground pillars, either dash and move left or right to adjust your position or jump and adjust your position in midair.
Void Tendrils, double jump, dash and pogo or dash to your side of the arena.
For the projectile attack, just Shade Dash through them.||
Good luck!
What the hell is a ||void tendril||
Later attack
Oh that one
Remember when I said don't read the 4th part of the wall I sent
I didnt
What TKD said.
That one lmao
||I watched a video a long time ago and I re watched it a few mins ago and it showed that attack||
Get ||MoP|| outta there ASAP.
no 😠
Yes.
If u tell me to equip ||Shaman I will flip||
||MoP is fire what are you talking about||
You don't really need it.
You'll be close to ||PV|| most of the time.
The || charm build || is fine
||you've just recreated my build||
It isn't.
Most times, you're close to the bosses and there are better charms.
Also for context for everyone I'm practicing ||pure vessel for pantheon 4||
@harsh kraken is this true for you
I won't.
I'm a nail user too.
XD
Well I am quite close to him
yato :SCshocked:
||like what about all the other bosses in pantheons||
Gio sighting
Anika jumpscare.

Anika 
I have 3 notches, I swore I wouldn't do this but I feel like I should equip ||quick focus||
Oh they're easy
whats wrong with using it?
lol ok
Shrue tho
||Enraged guardian, Lost Kin, No Eyes, Traitor Lord, White Defender, Failed champ, markoth, watchers and soul tyrant, all easy||
ok yeah
Yes I did js list all the ||pantheon 4 bosses apart from pure vessel||
I'm mostly a bosses guy.
I used a ||healing build for the last part of P5.||
I don't remember what charms I used in ||P4|| but the other helpers can tell you what charms to use.
charms are bald and evil
They're gonna say ||shaman||
||for pv you can get free abyss shriek when thier staggered||
Yep
You can just keep using the same thing lol
Side note accept frend req
||I cannot maintain more than 3hp for PV||
lol ok then heal i guess
On one condition.
?
Switch || MoP || for || shaman or qf or like, twister sbody or whatever if you want to ||
||you can get free heals when they does the focus attack then||
By that I mean I get 1-3hp by taking a lot of damage during the fight
If anyone disagrees, I am using this for ||PURE vessel || no matter what
|| qf might be helpful then, it makes your consistent heal spots more lenient so you can get more and allows for some silly stuff ||
Oh hey I hit 10k msg in this channel 39 messages ago
I have my own reason for accepting friend requests, but I can make an exception for you on one condition.
Happy 10,039th message
Also I do not mind recording another ||pure vessel fight||

What?
Welp I'm at the airport rn, so I can't really watch since I'ma be doin all that airport stuff in a bit
I meant for anyone who wanted to see
I'll be an exception!
You didn't hear the condition tho.
What is it 💀
lol ok
Alr gimme a sec
As some people here know, I don't like talking a lot.
So, that means that most days of the year, you must not talk to me.
The few times that you will talk to me, you'll have to keep it short.
Otherwise, I'll be forced to do something.
Sure
Okay then.
holy carp i beat|| Pure Vessel Ascendent twice in a row||
i used to be in the same situation like 3 weeks ago🙏🙏
||i think im ready for P4||
oh wait i gotchu
I'm a fellow ||pure vessel sufferer||
ok so I have a really heavy nail build btw
Hit me(pun intended)
Better
one sec
i was struggling for 1-2 months to beat him but once you do it its very easy
i just closed hollow knight lmao
||don't shadow dash through thier dash you can just jump over it and pogo||
ok so I use
I've been told that at least 7 times today
||I think jumping instead of dashing to avoid attacks is better. You gotta jump in advance to every attack for this strat though||
i can help w that
I tried that earlier it's semi effective
this is my ||PV|| build that works:
One tip i would recommend for heavy damage is when he does the ||focus attacks|| just wait until he does the ||big light one|| and just mass attack him with ||spells and the nail|| @harsh kraken
||dashing too early on the idek what it's called but the shoot sword one, other than that just try to time your dashes better, and prepare more for the slammy slammy into the ground||
Cursed build
id rec|| sharp shadow heavily bc i suck at pogo and jumping||
So let's recall back to the part where I cannot get to that part, I've gotten to that part twice
Bad charm
||sshadow|| is a must
i beat ||pv ascendent twice in a row so it works||
absolutely
Untrue
I was told to be creative, this may js be it
I always ||dash ||through eevry attack||||
It was a game changer once I equipped it helped me a lot with ||dashing through him||
exactly
But its just preference so yeah
I know its so good imo
fr
Alright my build
i personally suck at using ||spells||
Use them
i wouldn't reccomend ||quick focus not gonna lie||
I suck at dodging
Then dodge
||if you're out of shade dash you can ddive since you're not really gonna use spells||
I almost have the same ||build|| as you and yeah its nice
True
healing during ||PV|| is kind of weird
||Unfortunately I was expecting this to happen Sharp shadow sucks Sharp shadow is, in terms of combat, a crutch and a detriment. It has its uses in platforming, however in combat it often serves as a disadvantage, builds bad habits, and is frankly unneeded.
But it’s free damage No it isn’t. strength does 32 damage sshadow does 21. You can’t attack and dash at the same time, so whenever you opt to dash through a boss you lose an opportunity that could’ve been spent hitting the boss and are put further from the boss, making retaliation more difficult. Furthermore, a dash takes 0.3 seconds to complete. Almost exactly the same time as it takes for a nail swing with quick slash. Due to how powerful and widely used quick slash and unbreakable strength are, I would consider it fair to consider those as the nail dps. This means that sharp shadow, when used perfectly, loses out on 11 damage every 1.5 seconds, or 7 damage per second. Another option would be using dashmaster to boost its damage to match unbreakable strength, meaning you can either pay 2 notches for 7 less dps, or 4 notches to equalize it. To put into perspective how much 7 dps is, you could kill nightmare king Grimm in 3.5 minutes if you did that much constant damage. Except you’re not doing that much damage, you’re losing it. So no, sharp shadow isn’t “free damage”, in fact, the less often you use it, the more damage you will do
But I can dash through big bosses and avoid hits Which is, of course, a crutch. Every boss that can be dashed through with sharp shadow can be dashed through without. It’s purely a matter of playing more skillfully and timing your dash to avoid being hit. Of course, there are very particular scenarios in which sharp shadow does give an advantage. For example, dashing through god tamer beasts roll, as you can’t punish the attack regardless, though all those circumstances are highly situational and often still not enough damage to be worth using.||
holy shit
thats a lot of words
5 paragraph essay jumpscare
waits for "I ain't reading allat" comments
You can ||ddive|| in his ||spike attack||
actually i have a good counter for that
Turns out the ||soul twisters are alright. They're tough but not impossible. Still scary tho||
Wait I have a question for TKD
Ya
I ||SS|| thorugh|| PV || and then ||dash|| backwards to him and get like 2 nail hits|| before he attacks again|| by then, ||SS|| is charged again and ||rinse and repeat||
Um actually ||pure nail with strength does 31||☝️🤓
Tldr: none of these apply for this channel

||his spike attack is easy; SS negates them every time||

I understand ||Sharp shadow is less dps, but think abt it, it'll help alot, but it's an easy way to get damage when ur dashing, and I'm already dashing through PV so it's a bonus, but why should that mean it's bad?||
I have beaten him but damn im invested in reading that😂😂
I'm sending ultra luck
i strongly ||reccomend especcially since you said youre not the best at jumping||
lmao
Is that ||steel soul?||
stop.
🤣
the memories
Pogo is technically better, if you practice that strat and slowly incorporate it where possible, you can gain 2-3 nail hits depending on each attack, it also make you end up nearer to the boss, meaning you can get some more hits in before ||dashing through the next attack||, a combination would work for you imo
Genually asking😂😂
yeah
Otso wall incoming
||i died to hollow knight||
Damn i havent tried it and im not willing to
i almost punched a hole through my laptop
Damn how many hours?
about 20h
Ok, but someone earlier told me to "be creative, make up a strategy that consists of what ur good at and what others have told you" or somin along the lines of that, this is what I'm doing
However if you want to try it, go for it, I think I tried it at the start, but I listened to someone's advice on here and found the setup I used which worked better for me personally
my c||omplettion was hella low||
||The copypasta talks about worse max efficiency, which wouldnt be achieved by new players anyways. The longer duration does not harm new players' damage at all and the damage it deals might also help. About the last point, yes it is a crutch. Its use is to make something easier but it isnt needed. However making shade dashing easier makes it very much a good charm for new players who arent that good at using shade dash yet and need the crutch to time it correctly. Yes the charm isnt very good after you learn to use shade dash well, but for the new players of hashtag help, sshadow can very well be a usable charm.||
i just wanted to beat ||steel soul||
thank you
That's kinda what I said there
i mean you dont focus on doing the other stuff you just focus on completing the main thing
Yeah
||But I do think quick focus is a little much||
Combine pogo strat with ||dash for ||getting more dps
yeah
Mhm, I wouldn't use it iirc
What if I js yk, don't pogo
||see sharp shadow isnt just for dammage||, it helps because it makes your|| dash longer||
But more owie owie which means more faster kill :3
I just beat ||PV|| like 1 month ago and i wont try ||p5|| it will most certainly take me more than 30h to complete
As otso said "the longer duration doesn't harm new players damage at all and all the damage is deals might also help"
I, technically, in a way, am a new player
It took me 6 days plus 1 try from the 7th day to beat ||P5.||

Someone told me yesterday that he started a new save just to ||kill zote|| so they wouldnt have him as a boss
Thinking of doing the same
One of the other reasons I don't agree with that charm is it makes ||dash longer|| which will mess up the goofy slam attack which you seem to have a rhythm for with the normal length. So I don't want you dying to that lots now
1 playthrough, 165 or so hours
One playthrough, and a few other runs-70h in total, but that's completely beside the point
163 hours 34 mins
How to get that background
Mod iirc
Ah
||secret in game||
||that's js this playthrough, that's excluding the few steel soul tries that I didn't even get to hornet on||
Ok :/
Oh wait I'm wrong sheet
I have 1 word for you
I didn't rc
?
||sprintmaster||
Wait that's the build
Go for it
||Quick slash, strength, sharp shadow, sprint master, longnail||
Ew ||longnail||
I wonder if ||heart would be a better replacement for longnail🤔||
Ok
||honestly sprintmaster isn't worth it since you're mostly jumping or dashing, where sprintmaster doesn't do anything. Its better to use steady body or something||
I am not jumping
Oh shrue where tf ||sbody||
That's an s tier charm
Well ||dashing|| in your case
Without that ||qslash is basically useless||
Ok
I'll have the issue of ||Sharp shadow making my dash longer and maybe being hit by the spike attack||
Wich charms to use at || p2 || ?
But that's what jumping is for
Have all?
Ye
But I think you'll agree with me TkD, I can js jump
||shaman, sbody, qslash, strength, imo nmg but most one notch charms like grubsong work||
Basically your meta build
Wait u can jump over the ||massive sword spikes can't u||
Eh... Iirc not jumping and just walking is better
K thanks
You can jump in order to reduce the hitbox
Between the gaps
Bruh
I know what Hitbox is I mean what r u tryna say
||swords are skinnier near the top||
When he does the ||spike attack|| jump so you have time to react and get to the ||gap between 2 spikes||
So once you master this you wont take damage in the ||spike attack||
One less thing to worry about
Anything else important I should know
Also when he does the ||sword attack where he throws the swords|| wait a little bit then ||dash between the swords||
So you don’t miscalculate and take damage
I can't ||dash|| through them?
You can but dont ||dash early||
So it's rng
||the floor swords attack always spawn in the same positions relative to PV. So when you see him start the attack, you can just go to a certain distance away in front of him and you're safe (you'll need to learn the distance), and I find that much easier to react to than the glowing spots on the ground||
(And it'll always be that same distance away from him)
But the ||spots appear 1 or 2 seconds before the spikez||
Yeah, but ||its easier to remember the position to stand at next to pv rather than needing to look at the spots each time imo||
So I have to calculate
Once you do try it a few times it becomes pretty obvious
Anything else I should know before I go grind practice
Absolutely anything that can be useful
||you can shoot like 2 shade souls during his circle spawning attack ig||
Since you're out of reach from him at the start of the attack
Wait ||Sharp shadow does give soul right||
Idk, I don't think so
it doesnt
I'm very fucked
I knew that the moment i saw him
Alright bye bye 👋
Wish me luck
Gl
Oooo i am at the || god of p2 ||
How the fuck is that even survivable
Jump first, ||then wings to position, and you can pogo them if you need||
I was talking about the ||supernova||
Wait you've beat ||pure vessel||
The 109 is from a hitless run I worked on for a while
What r u missing
So ||with pure vessel, he summoned some wierd tentacle attack||
I assume that means 33% health?
Yeah
Dammit I js got there and died
Hey that’s progress though
Bur that is major progress
Is it possible to get to the secret|| godhome area twice||
I survived for double the time I was before
How the fuck r u 117%
I 112% the game installed mods beat those mods
They’re being a silly goose
Damn
||yes, if I'm thinking about the same secret as u are||
The windy place
no
Oh then no
that place is bald and evil anyway
||I thought by 117% u meant 112%, p1AB, p2AB, p3Ab, p4AB and path or pain or p5ab||
categorizing ||p5ab with path of pain || is 
Is ||path of pain even that hard||
No
its subjective
Once you do it one time it get easy
thats with everything
||Once I 112% this I'm gonna do path of pain||
That's not for a week or so tho
Mor mods time
Here everything after dirtmouth needs to be spoiler tagged so please edit your message and add spoiler tags
Who?
fr
even comparing ||p5 with pop|| is 
Agreed.



IM NOT DREAMING AM I?
gl
That was in ||hog||
Congratulations
gg
||now try ascended
||
Go away
It'll make you have to get used to not getting hit
It's actually a good idea
I did and succeeded
If you can get it to do ||one void tendril attack on ascended you should be able to easily clear the normal version||
||U said that with soul tyrant and I js carried on doing attuned and I beat that js fine||
That can also work
I recommend this
I js spent like 5 hours doing ||attuned and I js beat it||
Please edit your message and add spoiler tags

Pause

Thats mental 🤔
(the mods have your ip address)

Idk shadowknight seemed too dark
You know this is actually perfect

Ok, if I can pass ||markoth||
i suggest ||unbreakable strength, mark of pride and quick slash||
Dw it's fine I'll js ||shriek||
so im nowhere near even unlocking it yet, but are the ||fragile charms|| really good for ||steel soul|| or am I just going crazy?
||fragile strength is divine imo||
||yeah, steel soul has a twist making fragile charms really optimal||
also if someone is rlly good at hk routing, ||is it possible to get to Sly with claw only? Preferably without having to kill anything||
Yes... You can get to ||slys hut with literally the base gear 💀||
||preferably without killing means no gruz mother|| :c
Probably not? I'm not sure though
Yo is this the new Ismoil%?
||112% BABYYYY!!!||
Unless you find a way to ||right side city without killing then not possible||
Hold up I might be able to do some goofy stuff though
@gaunt field you forgot to tag the img
Ok yeah it's possible
ok tysm guys 
It might be possible if you ||fall into deepnest, get tram pass, then use deepnest tram||
How would you even get there without killing anything 
gg!! 
No no, getting out of even ||crossroads without killing anything|| is 100% impossible
no thats possible
||fireball skip from queens station, get claw, use claw to get to the fungal fall to deepnest, fall, go to failed tram, get tram pass, navigate deepnest, go to the tram, use tram, climb elevator, pogo enemy at the top ||
It isn't

||lure uumuu closer to the jellies so they have less distance to cover. if you can manage to get the jellies in the exact same position as uumuu, you can hit them with a spell (like shade soul) to detonate them both. sometimes it's worth taking one damage from the lightning just to deal a critical killing blow to the boss||
||Try to keep uumuu towards the bottom of the arena. Then when jellyfish appear sometimes there is just not a good opportunity to align uumuu and the jellyfish. Only go for one if they are well aligned and not too far apart. I also recommend using shade soul to hit them. Your nail works fine but shade soul is safer and you can stay further away.||
Hmm yeah that makes sense I never thought of || using spells since I’m bad at aiming vengeful spirit/shade soul ||
You can also ||dream nail uumuu for soul but most of the time that doesn't knock them back so it needs to be timed well||
Yeah I probably won’t try and || dream nail, it’s too slow and I’m nkt wasting charm space for the dream charm lol || okay thank you both I will try that!
i think the real answer is I should have || let zote die ||

How did you spoiler again?
there are a total of ||168||
e
Oh ok thanks
I miss one for some reason
||banishing grimm removes one i think||
thats what i did
Let me log in hk rq
yeah actually i have ||160|| out of ||161|| encountered
Really dont know whats missing here
||fragile greed affects the Coliseum of Fools money?||
I think yeah because it gives ||more geo|| to any enemy killed but i dont know if its going to affect the total ||geo|| you get thrown at the end of ||each challenge||
I dont even know If it gives a set amount of ||geo||
I dont think We have to spoiler flag ||geo|| because its Pre-||dirtmouth|| but Just playing safe
Oh its just a habit because we usually have to spoiler everything😂
you can watch a video on youtube going through the entire ||journal||
I remember doing so like a year ago and i literally couldnt find anything, maybe i didnt notice it or i did something that doesnt allow me to 100% the ||journal||
it does
also geo is not a spoiler, you can get it before dirtmouth
look through your own ||journal and see which ones arent completed||
also you have 3 more, though those are probably quite obscure. some also dont add to the counter
it gives a set amount, also pretty sure ||greed doesnt affect it||
well i can see the ones that arent ||completed|| but i cant find the missing ||encounter||
Ill probably take a look later again search on youtube
thanks for the help though
@chrome shale it’s that time of day again where I ask you to choose what boss I’ll throw my masochistic head at
||Do bindings basically they are just limitations but I’m pretty sure if you want them glowing you have to do all 4 bindings at once which is really hard wouldnt recommend but hey go for it||
||Like nail binding resets your nail damage by a bit
Charm binding means no charms
Mask binding I think puts you at 3-5 mask
Soul binding makes it so you have 2/3 of he base soul limit without upgrades||

@serene heron
My bad forgot
Servers english only
#hk-general or #hk-discussion would be a better place
what is the most recent hollow knight version
like, in numbers (ex; 1.0.0)
1.4.3.2 i think?
Well I did use the spoiler tags for that but I'm guessing you are not greek
or its 1.5 and im old
it is 1.5
thanks!
Uhm actually it is 1.5.78.11833
Released 4 months after
Can someone tell me what I should be doing next I’m so confused
I just beat || broken vessel ||
This how my map looks
the ||tram at the bottom has more stuff to offer||
I would generally reccomend going to backtrack after getting new abilities like ||monarch wings||
||What’s the tram ||
u mean ||monarch wings||?
Bet I’ll look into it
Generally for progression you should head towards the ||dreamers marked on your map. Other than that you'll find more stuff if you explore city of tears a bit more or maybe even return to where you started the game||
please make sure they have that before suggesting it
I needa get it first
i thought he wouldve already used it to go from ||deepnest to ancient basin?||
they can also get to that in a different way
Jesus Christ||pure vessel|| is insane I need help
||royal waterway?||
they went ||from city of tears through the broken elevator to ancient basin||
what do you struggle with?
oh, should i delete my message then
that is hard
Contact damage
Well it doesn't hurt deleting it but it's also a little late now. Just remember it for next time 👍
Buh I think a few tips from u guys can help
nonsenf
Umm my guy that’s the entirety of combat in this game
But to avoid it try to stay at a reasonable distance from whatever your attacking
Like a nails distance
It would be helpful if you were a little more precise. It's difficult to give tips if you just say the boss you struggle with. Is there any specific attack you struggle to avoid for example? Generally for the fight I recommend ||only healing when the boss is staggered and only jumping or dashing specifically to avoid an attack and not randomly jumping around. Playing too aggressively can also be bad so make sure you know which attack they are doing and how to dodge it before you actually run at them and start attacking||
🐈
this is the exact opposite approach I take
Then do the opposite
Also if ur really struggling try ||mark of pride and long nail||
ew
too much range
I agree
And if you somehow are still getting contact damage then use ||nail arts||
wtf nonsenf uses 
||nail arts against pv|| is extremely based
in fact it's a little too based even for me
||what i would reccomend for new players is that if you take damage to just wait for an opportunity to heal instead of healing immediately or trying to use the invincibility you get||
is it worth it to ||clear the spikes manually in hornet 2 fight or should i just try my best to dodge them||
use ||vengeful spirit to clear the spikes||
should i just save all my souls for that then
hey is ||heavy blow, shaman stone, spell twister, soul eater|| a good build for ||hornet2 hitless||
i’ve just been ||ddark spamming||
guys ||sly|| is (still) beating the sh||ar||t out of me but i did manage to get the second phase consistently (with little to no hits by using ||sharp shadow||), but im having trouble with the first phase. any tips?
no and please also add spoiler tags to ||stag station||
||I would never recommend heavy blow. If you are playing really safe and go for more of a spell build I guess it works but I personally would still not use it. Other than that what you are using seems fine for a spell build altho I would overcharm with eater on the last notch which should give you a lot more space for charms than what you have right now.||
oh yea i forgot about ||overcharming thanks (i don’t want to use heavy blow it’s just a requirement for what i’m doing)||
are you doing a ||heavy blow challenge||?
||For sly don't play too aggressively. Only go for 1 or 2 hits in between every one of his attacks and then focus on dodging the next one again. Healing is possible outside of staggers but really difficult to do consistently and not get hit right after so I recommend only doing it on staggers. Generally for the fight you should use the walls. Of course don't just camp on them but when you are close to a wall then use it to dodge an attack. Also use the iframes that ddark gives you. If you for example are coming down from a wall and don't know how to do it without getting hit or are ever in a situation where it seems like you can't avoid the next attack just use ddark and the iframes it gives you to avoid it and get out of the way.
For the second phase I know you said you can do it with sharp shadow but that's a really tedious and not great way. Instead I recommend trying nailarts and spells. At the start of the phase if you have soul you can take one step to the side and then immediately shriek which deals a ton of damage. After that start charging a nailart and wait for him to come to you. Then dash away to dodge his spinning attack, turn around and either dash or great slash and repeat the process. Whenever you have soul you should use it for spells, healing is never a good option in the second phase. It should only take 5 great slashes and even less if you use spells to finish the phase||
yea
it’s like a bingo challenge but just a bunch of goals
Alright good luck 🥕
||stag station|| is in dirtmouth tho
But you have to go ||to crossroads to open it and know it's there||
oh mb
wall jumpscare
Guys stop jumpscaring people with 5 paragraph essays please
the hamburger essays live in your walls
also how has hkhelp been dead for 30 mins
It kinda do be doin that tho
||uumuu|| is such an unique fight
oh that was real easy, third try
dies of uncspoilers
they have 112
well ofc theres more but that is the most basic parts of the game
There is a lot of side content
actually i would say most of the game is side content
That’s what I said and then 7873826 people screamed at me
like mods or any dlc?
when
they're called "dlc" but they;re just big updates so yeah ig dlc
if you want a good mod play pale court
theyre just basic content updates
or hallownest vocalized
hollow point when
what is that
gun
wont that just make the entire game free?
Hollow point is actually super fun
its slightly balanced actually
And super balanced too
not super balanced
is it me or ||collector|| is harder than ||sentinel hornet|| lmao
ill worry about all that later
depends on strategy
||pure vessel|| probably gonna take me ages
either theyre free or theyre impossible
Wtf how
everyones different
||prob cus i didn't get my nail upgraded to the highest||
Makes sense
It took me a while so it will probably take you a while also remember to take breaks from the game
To calm down
If ur stressed everything gets harder
Omghi
hello
Hru

so should i do ||pure vessel|| or try to unlock the "dlc"
||pure vessel|| is part of a "dlc"
I melted them both using ||flukenest||
ok but all the other contents i didnt explore a single bit i think
So idk
I dont even consider it a dlc its Literally Just a free update
||well generally I think it's best if you do most stuff before godhome to make it as easy as possible but play however you like. If godhome is fun right now then do that||
i think ill check those out first rather than doing ||pure vessel|| and technically beating the game
||Spoiler||
you already got warned yesterday for trolling...
troll where?!?!?!
how many times does ||broken vessel|| go down for
staggers are based on number of hits
so you could stagger an infinite number of times or 0 times
the only exception being ||false knight||
||broken vessel|| so hard
What is a good charm build for ||troupemaster Grimm not nightmare king||
which ones do u have
||i have the same question i hav all charms except kingsoul||
yeah same boss i have ||10||
Right, so I think ||Strength, Shaman, Quick Focus and Grubsong|| will be good.

Which ||city||
||tears||
Also spoiler tag
Yes
At ki||ngdoms edge theres like 2 routes to the right? Have u been there?||
oh my god
I can't go there because i don't have ||shade dash||
?
nah nothing thats just like a lot of maps
do you have ||ismas thingy||
Expl||ore more at deepnest. Go further down||
No
I already kill the fake || knight thing boss||
then under ||the city you go||
U mean || royal waterways||
Yes
yeah
Ok
||dung ring a bell ?||
Good job Batz . love you man

? U mean the boss
Y
mhm have you beaten him ?
||
|| this guy
No
do that ❗
Ok
fight as though your dung depends on it
Ok i go and defect that guy bye ty

How do you mark text as spoiler again?

Oh come on.
So I just beat || greenpath hornet || and am at 34 mins currently.
Is this a good starting point for 5 hour achievement?
yeah that's pretty good
you could probably still do it if you were at an hour
it gives you a lot of spare time
Melon hey
It also helps to route everything past ||hornet 1|| so you have a plan for the rest of the game
I js logged on, did a ||pure vessel practice, and somehow did hitless until the 1st stagger||
that's good
||are you thinking it's the swords lol||
Ha ha ha.
I can't route.
fireb0rn made a good one
if you're feeling lazy
I reckon I can do without
ok
You literary need to write on a piece of paper where you go when
Yeah I'm using it (kinda. I forget where things are.)
honestly the hard part for me is not dying
you can just press the window key if you're on pc
I suck at this game.
Wow
or have it on your phone
Well yeah, but without compass or maps it can be hard to tell where I am
Mainly maps
I fogot ||corney's|| locations
remeber to spoiler
Should i fight || lost kin || first or should i fight || white defender || first?
personally I'd say ||white defender|| is easier
but just do whoever
Well i will allready fight both of them
they're both annoying
Yeah
I just found a wonderful map for ||112%|| it has all checks you need

Thanks
So this should help a lot
If only I could not take damage
Thanks.
I've got to remember how to get to ||Soul Master|| and somehow beat him with 5 masks.
He isn't that hard, you can practice him in ||god home|| if you have problems
you still need to spoiler this please
What do i get when i defeat || white defender || for the second time?
Nothing I believe
Ah
I don't have ||god home|| right now.
I mean on other save
Okay than i should go to || lost kin ||
I don't have another save
I'm playing on my computer
It helps to keep at least one practice save
My old save is on ps4
