Oh perfect! Id cut ||catcher and twister for long nail and that charm||
Yes I am
What is usually good?
Oh man
depends entirely on how u play however ||nail arts, dream nail, and spells|| are what ppl usually focus on in this challenge instead of buffing their ||nail||
So my current build is fine?
if ur comfortable with it 
I see
ultimately preferance is better than whats 'meta'
My issue is I ||can’t use spells so reliably during the condensed spike floor part||
Let me see how others are doing so well on yt
Do you use the ||quick cast|| button?
tags
Ah I figured that wouldn’t need one because it’s in the keybinds menu from start
it gets really stupid because ||dnail and cdash||
Whats that?
It’s a button to just ||cast a spell|| without delay or starting healing
Oh maybe thats why I ||get an attack animation when I really just want to great slash||
||it’s for spells not nail arts||
I think I have ||quick cast|| on
thats just part of the game
its literally a feature in your favor
Oh
Oh
like if you didnt have it:||
- startup time for each slash would be slower
- when charging, youll miss out on that extra slash, so less damage||
Let me look on it
Number 2 does have a con tho:||the attack animation puts downtime and messes up on inputing other actions such as wall hangs and dashes||
the downtime shouldnt matter because youre planning to charge a ||great slash||
Like imagine ||attacking a wall when you wanted to hang on the wall||
best ||charms build vs base hollow knight?||
@sudden harness I'm trying out using ||q-focus instead of MoP(for absrad)|| and 1/3 runs were successful :DD I think things flowed easier somehow
What do u have?
||qslash shaman stone nmg spell twister ||
whats the 3rd one?
||nailmasters glory ||
o ty
If you can’t win with that, just use Some ||lifeblood|| charms and ||nail|| charms to tank the fight.
hm whats the gameplan?
What's your playstyle?
||cyclone slash during staggers, spam nail strikes and descending dark otherwise||
how come I cant ||Dnail him?||
hmm okay
🔹 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.
this is the 2nd time youve unnecessarily spoiled major content for someone. you need to read the channels pins
if you continue like this you're gonna get muted or something, seriously
Recommended ||charms for traitor lord||?
what charms do you have?
nvm i scrolled up.
i would go with ||quick slash, shaman stone, soul twister, and steady body/really any 1 notch you like||
how much can I sell ||rancid eggs|| to ||Steel soul jinn|| for?
its a random amount 290-449
I did the math and realised that I'll be able to make a profit regardless of how much I get
Didnth want to waste my only ||simple key||
I made like a few hundred more geo than I had after ||buying Sly's key and using the one I already had to open jinns door||
About to grab ||shade soul|| oh yeah 👅
thx I beat it
u gotta go from under
oh thanks! I got it!
noice
okay I have a different question
ok so just ask it
lemme see go from oh show whole map pls
ok i see yea
maybe u need to findd another area
yeaa u want a hint how to get area
oh nvm have a explore urself first
thats a good way
||my first thought is to take tram from ancient basin to the right||
hmm give me a hint
hmmm is there any other clue?
what ive tried is ||to swim in as many acid pools in kingdom's edge as I can||
this is a good idea
still cant find it
do you want a specific location?
||wall next to 2 bees in the same room as the tram||
Lets say a ||civilization hides there||
I got it!!! what an obscure entrance!!! ||just like that king station entrance to kingdom's end||
How did you figure that out with no guide, its basically camouflaged
im back nice
*i meant just keep swimming cuz u were headed in the right direction
should i explore ||queens gardens|| or should i continue getting ||dreamers?||
whichever you want
prefereably both imo
k but is there anything useful in ||gardens||
yes
||What's the fastest way to fungal wastes ( is the name correct ? )||
||From greenpath||
Huh
go from one of the ||stations||
||through fog canyon to queens station ||
i all the speedruns go thru that
in speedruns ||quit to ancestral mound after getting dash||
k thx @somber hill @amber perch
how do I get that ||
grub?||
u need to go from above iirc
u found it?
yup! now im having trouble fighting the ||enraged crystal guardian, what charm build is good?||
what do u have?
ill try find what u posted
ok good charms in general for boss fights
||good: shaman stone, qslash, grubsong, strength if u feel like it(good but if its fragile might not be worth it)
decent: soul catcher, twister, sbody (with qslash), nail lengthening charms if u need them
okay: extra health charms, quick focus, soul eater(too costly compared to catcher), flukes(stronger if u know how to use them but i assume u don't)||
||I need 29 more essence to get to 300, where can I look for it? Nothing shows on the map anymore||
Like early bosses or?
some early bosses, some major ones
Do you remember which ones? I’ve been running around for a while now
ok here's 4 ||false knight, broken vessel, dung defender, soul tyrant||
u call ||vessel|| early?
therefore it's major ones...
oh yea mb
probs
but its good enough for both of the descriptions
i killed him anyway
mm
and got ||ismas|| i still think i cant go in ||acid|| 
Spoiler tag ||acid|| imo imo
forgot its not super early game
||Alr I looked, beat all of them besides vessel, and dung defender, ur talking about the tree at the bottom of the parkour right? I got that one. I’ll check the others tho thx ||
not about ||trees||
thx!
||Alright thx found the failed champion, already killed me, dang it’s gonna be a hard fight but at least I don’t have to run back hard ||
Insta dead again damn
I guess || finding heal windows during plat phase is made much easier with it
Without qfocus there's windows for it when she tps but it requires quite some cold blood to just hit the focus button because you believe the beams or the blades won't get you in your platform ||
|| and if you reach climb with even just 2 hits to spare and you know of the pogo strats in the last phase you've basically won ||
can anyone send me the location of ||queens garden?||
nvm found it
how do i get in? im back at the ||dreamer||
every time i connect my switch pro controller the game thinks I'm holding up on the right stick does anyone know why/how to fix
found it
||Damn this failed champion is destroying me, is there any easier ones I can do?||
||Yea I give up I can’t even stagger him, gonna try to get more health first, I’m only at 6||
||First phase is the hardest, but since his rage attack is the sameonce you stagger him once hit him as many times as possible since that attack is significantly slower, if he jumps backwards, he gon do a shockwave attack and if he jump attcks, dash through him||
||I’m in spirit glades or smth and this stupid dream warrior can’t be killed||
||They just lunge at me and idk how or why to kill them||
Which one
||That's because you can't kill them and they're not a dream warrior lol. They're a regular 1 essence ghost that tries to attack you if you dnail the other ghosts in there||
||someone spoil me and tell me about that spider monster I saw after getting the weaversong charm room? Where do I encounter them again?||
||Thanks, I figured those things out but sometimes I still mess up, haven’t been able to stagger him yet. I think I’ll focus on exploring a few new areas for a bit, I just unlocked the crystal ||
||Welp, I just died to the stupid ass crystal warrior cause I tried to sit on the bench while 1hp. Isn’t that awesome||
You don't
o okie
||I just unlocked crystal heart lets fkin go||
im pretty lost, I dont know where to go from here , this is my || map||
what are you actually tryna do?
I suppose get all of the ||dream bosses||
send a pic of your inventory
ive already got enough ||geo lol||
the amount I have right now is fine lol
do you know where I can get the rest of the ||charms?||
Im trying to finish the || charm|| set
oh your maiing that one
missing*
||check out howling cliffs||
he also still needs that one yknow
||that's not something we should spoil though||
they'll find that eventually when doing other stuff and progressing
ty
remember to use spoiler tags
okay im here, just not sure where it could be, the place has so many hiding spots
ill look around for now
found it
did I find it???
whats going on...
||dream nail that||
what now?!?!?
go to ||dirtmouth||
Good luck;;!
gl
Spoiler that
Have fun bro
wym gl 💀
Why is kark's usename wingdings
real question is will they fight him or not
sorry, my bad
yall make me prefer to just finish ||trial 3 of fools||, yall are scaring me
Have fun
whatever you like, try both.
I have no idea what happened but something tells me I need to just ||equip this new charm||
yeah
what would you say is easier?
I'd say this is easier ngl
what are you referring as "this"?
||the Grimm troupe||
mmm ok ||grimm troupe is easier than colosseum of fools? thats relieveing ||
sort of
Subjective.
but as @tawny sapphire said...
yeah^^
but generally this is easier than fighting multiple enemies back to back
yeahh
Even if it is a glorified fetch quest

true
what would yall recon I should use when ||getting the flames? Im def keeping compass, I havent been familiar with my surroundings yet||
||Shaman Stone, MoP||
i can die inside ||dream bosses right in steel soul? and i wont lose||
depends on which ones
||lost kin||
i am gonna do him then ||white defender and thats all 4 dreams done then just dream warriors left||
||shamans and fragile strength ||
yeah that's fine, ||everything except Rad and White Palace are fine||
gotcha
||fragile strength is a bad suggestion here||
Correct me if I'm wrong but can't you also die in ||godhome||
Oh? Why do you say that
that's wrong
Good to know
yeah just beat him barely 1 health left
new players don't really know how to not die smg
Spoiler ||mask!||
oh I think I want to bring an ||NMG and a soul catcher and I should be okay||
Any playlist for all the secret areas in hk
bro why do we have to spoiler that its there from as soon as you start the game
mask in fact not a spoiler
Still should spoil it regardless
was gonna say bro
People have told me it was but alright
read pins
I see
Then they lied
time to buy out ||sly and salubra||
I think what they said to censor was the value/amount
ill use this for ||flame hunting|| thx guys
Yeah if it's ||above the base amount then it's a spoiler because it spoils that you can get more / how many you can get||
Alright yeah now i get it
Kind of stupid that ||soul|| is a spoiler according to pins 😔
but focus isn't 😭
update: ill use ||soul catcher|| instead of ||longnail||
chat ||i need 3 pale ore i got colo 2 hallownest crown and seer wheres the other 3 at anyone know||
I mean when a person starts a game they don't learn what it is till later
||nosk is one||
its literally the first lore tablet you read mentions what it is and does
||grubfather, deepnest, ancient basin||
and you find it about less than a minute into the game
yeah lmao
One is at a hidden boss in ||deepnest||
ight
wheres the one in ||basin i dont remember that one||
close to ||tram||
||west of tram, hidden floor||
ohhhh that one with the small ||mawleks||
yea
||trial 2 of fools|| as well
they have that one
oh they have ||colo||
alright done now just ||nosk and grubs||
any tips for ||colo2?||
Correct me if I'm wrong, but ||you get the pale ore from guprubfather at 35 grubs||
31
I was close
iirc
||nosk,bottom left of basin tram room, and grubfather lol||
i dont even know how many im at ngl
lol
i just grab any i can remember
Do you have ||collectors map?||
tbf im making decent progress im 4 hours in anf i have ||4 pale ore collected shade soul ddark and a bunch of other stuff and bosses done even 1 dreamer||
nah ima speedrun tryna get it tho im gonna go straight for ||kings mark then abyss once i get howling wraiths||
i dont really grab ||grubs|| cuz most is behind platforming and i suck at platforming
how can I tell which ||dream warriors I missed or is there just one dream warrior per map section?||
After you get ||abyss access|| you should go for ||collector||
Guys what ||charm|| should I get for ||mantis lords||
Share the loadout
u dont exactly need ||pale ore to speed run ||
yeah im going ||shade cloak queens key map while also picking up white fragment 1||
I keep dying
they aren't speedrunning lol
I think he's trying to get ||pure nail||
not a speedrun just tryna get ||112|| i just like to get things done
yh i am
oh ok
i would go get some other ||charms|| first
Obtain some more ||charms|| from ||sly/salubra|| and then update me
chat i forgor how do i get ||ismas again i know theres a room in waterways that connects but i forgot||
Should I go get ||shaman||
ye
You have to beat ||dung defender||
sadly I died and lost 700 geo
done that im going back round for ||white defender anyways||
I 2nd this
lol grab ur ||shade|| first
Also, you should find ||leg eater|| if you haven't already @frosty ocean
||you can come back to it later, ur not missing out ||
you just reminded me i needa get ||fragile greed still lmao||
I found him
Lmaoooo
But what to do
Did you have ||enough geo|| to ||buy from him?||
||fragile charms arnt so good if u struggle against a boss they should practice first||
||That's true- but if it were a steel soul run I'd recommend grabbing strength immediately||
bruh ||p4|| is beating my ass so hard idk what to do someone help
ofc
It's full of hardhitting bosses so you just gotta learn to shred through them extremely quickly
best way to farm ||geo early if ur skilled enough is to farm moss guardians|| if you really need more @frosty ocean
||twister shaman catcher will work||
N
||shaman stone|| is extremely helpful. That's really the only one I can recommend
O
- please spoiler tag all your messages
- show your charms
everything in this channel from the game needs to be spoiler tagged in this channel. You can spoiler tag messages by putting two bars on each side || like this || so please edit your message
Gotta do it on that message bro
you have to edit your message to have tags
Can't do it "next time" 😭
||vhat can anyone tell me where the hell the connecting room to ismas is in waterways o cant fijd it||

so the only thing is literally just learn to blitz everything?
No because I had ||Mark of Pride|| equipped since I first got it
south of ||dung defender||
That's what I did yeah, if you want an ||attack charm build|| lmk
But yeah ||p4|| is literally all about being aggressive
essentially yes
im using ||strength, qslash, shaman, sbody, and nmg|| should i change anything?
The easiest one for me to blitz is really ||traitor lord||
Take off ||sbody|| and if you're getting hit alot, I'd recommend ||grubsong|| instead
this looks good, ||nmg is a flex charm but yeah its good ||
okay but why was he so hard in the ||qg fight|| but so easy after?
ight thanks yall ill go do some runs
Did you have the same ||loadout/items/upgrades||?
what no?
||Cause the arena is much smaller in qg||
I think it's also a mindset of it being easier to manage because you've done the fight before
Is it really that much smaller?
||traitor lord is easy because he is countered by just staying next to him and dashind or standing if he jumps||
you do realise that's not the only playstyle to fight him
Its the easiest tho
not everyone learns that when playing him
I know, i died to cuz i had the wrong strategy, but once i learned he became a big joke
What I learned was ||jump over him if he tries to dash at you, and walk in the direction traitor lord was when he jumped||
How do i go on top?
what charm am i missing and where to get?
Its a secret
This
Bruh! Thats why im asking
???
If you really wanna know ill tell but itll spoul you everything
Ive alr got most of the || map || unlocked
I alr watched a bunch of videos essays LMAO that's how i got interested in the game
I cant say cuz it'll spoil, but what I can say is that the top one is ||getting all grubs||
ik that one, rest 2?
How do i get there tho?
Aight ||get all stags||
spoil me idc, just want that 99 to go to 100
Let me send a ss and plz confirm if i did unlock all the stag and yes ik it has something to do with || stag guy's memory or whatever ||
ik bout ||voidheart|| too
Excuse my ignorance but what is an ss
screenshot
||deep focus and lifeblood core||, im not too familiar with it but for ||lifeblood core|| u need to go to ||abyss, have all your hearts be lifeblood||, a door would open, and you enter it. It's kind of a maze but at the end is ||L-blood core||, and when you pick up the ||charm|| you can't re-enter the room
In that case i cant, im not at home rn
||is deep focus around quick focus?||
he will send
Screen shot
I think so, relatively close. Should be in ||c-peaks|| but lemme double check
||queens garden||
Yh just experienced so sad
no
AH! So if i get tgat im good? To go
Wdym no
only remember that from top of my head, it should be good
Yeh agreed
Alr thank u people. Ill be back in a few hours
wrong rwply mb
no
cya
Oh ok np
k will google
@worn arch here's the location of ||deep focus||
I just pulled the image off the hk wiki
||I need help with nkg specifically how to dodge his attacks||
can c why i missed it
Ah
thnx @lofty fractal
which ones
Just need to get used to the speed of him as a whole
byeee guys, time to 100% for first time (51h 19m in T-T)
||the one where he dashes towards me and spreads a flame trail||
When he does that, jump over him and just ||shade dash through the flame trail||
||what are some good times to attack him?||
||dash away if you can hit him then just stand still||
||After the dash ofc||
wrong attack
If he does his ||lunge into the sky jump thing||, step back before he reaches you then turn around
Oh the one where ||he drops and lunges?||
Should be able to get 2 hits in
yeah
||Jump and pogo||
absolutely do not pogo that
I would give an example of what I do but im on switch and I can't save a video of it 
you did not tag ||hornet 2|| and ||spells|| so i have to delete your message
Thank you 
np

||what gear should I have before fighting nkg?||
||I have all charms expect for grubberflys elegy and voidheart I have 8 masks and 2 soul vessels, all abilities||
||strength, shaman, QS, Steady Body, grubsong||
You should be fine with ||nail 3|| and this charm loadout ^
Although I would say ||nmg over gsong||
Actually ||grimmchild|| nvm
Just use the first three charms + that
Nah! Even bottom?
Like the 1 where u descent down even more just beside the uphrade room
In || tye abyss ||
That's more a puzzle than anything
How to do so?

||Shaman, MoP and dream Wielder||
||gsong is ass tho no?||

ohman
metroidvania
bruh everyone alwyas tell me spoiler charm
Well they're wrong
What to find here exactly??? Im playing on switch
lore
||Journal entry||
and ||a journalk entry iirc||
Thats it?

iirc
I guess it was just tye mod then

||trying to reach birthplace?||
Whr is that?
nvm
Idk
TT
I alr got the || shadow cloke ||
so where are you trying to go now
I alr mentioned. Plz lmk if yk what im searching for
@verbal token
this spot?
Yes! Basically i saw someone doing it so I was wondering how to access it
I have told you 2 times now ffs
you need a decently late-game item
as melon said
i would tell you how to get it but I'll let u find out
Wdym bro 😭😭
since you just got ||shade cloak||, you can access new areas
which gets you closer to the item you need
spoiler tags
Idc abt spoilers i just want to know hwo to get there
thank you
i sometimes forget so thanks
it's okay

maybe try to remind people if they forgor as well
will do
if you really want me to tell you, i can
Plz do
k it's gonna be one giant spoiler message
I got interested in thw game by getting spoiled of the whole thing anyway
Trust me! Alr saw all the mossband lore vids
||since you just got shade cloak, you can access a new area of the map called "Queen's Gardens", and you can get a LOT of new things there. Basically, you have to beat a boss and then meet your literal mother and she'll give you half of the thing you need.
The next part requires a lot more stuff. So for this part, you'll need to get 1800 essence, awaken the dream nail, and enter the white palace from the corpse near hidden station by dream nailing it. You have to beat ALL of white palace (it's extremely huge) and you'll get the other half of the charm you need. then, when you have the charm (it costs 5 notches), equip it and go back to that spot. The ground should end up crumbling and you can enter a new room, which I mentioned was the "birthplace".||
Thats part 1 of the long explanation @verbal token
OOOOOOOOOH! So im waaaaay too early. Apologies for underestimating and Thank you for this detailed explanation
U mind if i dm u for help?
I think right now || queens gardens, white palace, fog canyon library thing and a ton of bosses ||
still a lot lmao
go for it
Where can I get ||geo||
Show map
I'm trying to get ||unbreakable strength||
Me?
just gotta ||kill things||
no prob
||zoom in on kingdoms edge||
but I'd recommend fighting ||husk guards|| in ||crossroads||
SPOILLLL
AAAAAAAAAAAAA
yrue
||best geo grind spot is Colo 2 over and over again||
all good
agreed
||around 2000 geo each run through if I’m remembering correctly!||
iirc it gives ||~1300||
Ok
still a lot tho so just do it over and over
||no I think trial of the conqueror does give around 2000||
I might be thinking of ||colo 1||
but when i was grinding ||colo 2 || i was getting ||1500-2000||
Yeah it’s a varying amount, that’s why I say around
ah yeah
Also for ||geo grinding grubs and relics are very good ||
No? It is first thing you see when you gain control lol
read pins man
Ya they say anything past kings pass ☠️
well, geo doesn't need a censor but most stuff does
I know
no
That’s why I censored ||grubs and relics||
that has been updated since
^
Bruh
the new rules state anything except the listed words in the pins
Hmm
tags
tags
geo is not a spoiler
yeah i corrected myself
^
So ||kings pass|| is spoiler but not geo… when you see ||kings pass|| before geo…
spoiler the image rq
if you have a problem with the rules make a modmail but please don't discuss it here
how ;-;

||stall ball is possible there, I’ve never done it but you need v sync I think and the fireball goes in the curve ||
||you can't make that jump right now if you don't have any special abilities or similar that would help you||
He can do a rando skip
v sync and 60 fps if i'm correct
in the curve?

The ||far platform has a curve in it. ||
so like this
spoil, don't spoil 😭
They asked how to do it
nonsenf you deal with this
I think so yeah
you brought it up
Ok my bad
||While I was exploring greenpath i noticed a character with red scarf and a long nail but she dashed out when I tried to jump to it not that I could though. Who was that?||
someone cool
you'll find out if you explore - they're very cool
||she is important, follow her, try to go around||
please make sure you know whether they are on their first playthrough before suggesting stuff like skips or mentioning things they might not have. I don't know what the original message contained though
suggesting a skip isn't really a spoiler tho, and no I'm not on my first playthrough
Ok I will continue exploring really wanna know though😄
it contained ||stall ball, fireball|| stuff like that
that's why u explore lol
I am curious now
yeah so go explore 👍
have fun :DD
Yeah my bad I assumed they were doing a ||randomizer run because they posted in discussion instead of help channel||
Yeah. Let's continue hammering my nail
never been in this discord b4 I'm not sure what goes where
suggesting skips to new players isn't bad because of spoilers but because it makes their experience unnatural and might lead to them getting stuck or similar things. In this case it's fine I was just letting them know
i guess that makes sense, if the person is asking about a skip tho it's likely they already know skips exist or want to skip that area in particular
honestly for a truly "natural" run, just don't join any communities or watch any guides/streams on the game
yeah that's why I said I didn't know what your original message contained. Idk if you were asking about a skip specifically
I personally don't recommend that because I know (not only in HK) that I've had first playthroughs that were more fun bc of the community
what I do is listen to something completely unrelated- like a podcast
ohh true I worded it a bit ambiguously
Just got to ||queen's garden||! What do you suggest to begin with? apart from exploring?
if you get stuck or struggle with something a lot a spoiler free discord channel is still better than quitting or using google/youtube
erm that's actually not a truly immersive experience 🤓 ☝️
||The hunter's journal is so cool!||
I'd recommend ||unlocking stag and getting map|| :3
quitting actually isn't that bad, you can return to the game later and you'll most likely come back with a renewed view on the situation at hand
this is actually a really real thing, I can't play with music. I need the game's soundtracks to have a good gameplay
theres also a fun little ||key for a fun area||
exploring!
but that's later on in ||QG||
oh damn ||this place has a different map! I just got the one in fog canyon, and now I have to find another one!!!!||
I also sometimes listen to 10 hour ambience 😭
||yeah every time you see a new title it requires a new map||
||oh hell yeah I know. you mean the love thing?||
oh
hollow knight ambience rotting in the corner:
||all 18 areas|| have their own unique maps !! (map doesn't need a censor btw)
noice
try not to spoil stuff please. I know they asked for what to do but you should still not mention stuff they don't know about
||18||?!
wait something's not working
oh god
nah it's actually 69
I mean now he has something else to look out for that he didn't before, not horrible imo 🤷♂️
these don't look like ||18||. ||excluding the hive and including the queen's garden I haven't unlocked yet||
might detract slightly from finding it on accident tho 😔
but it's still a pretty big spoiler...
u haven't unlocked all of them bucko
^
what exactly?
is it?
I kinda forgot what that was but whatever he finds after is the real spoiler no?
I know but I've seen the whole map before, doesn't look more different than mine
so basically the hollow knight was the bay harbor butcher
nah I'm serious
so basically the hollow knight commited genocide and now has to free the souls of the underground
that's undertale
for @red sky ||i was talking about love key
||
different people like to play games in different ways. While you might think some spoilers can be motivating or fun there are a lot of players who like to not get spoiled at all about anything. And that's why this channel has so strict spoiler rules
in some sort of way at least
||there are 16 areas smh||
wait no 17
actually yeah 18
so basically the hollow knight was sent down to hell to eradicate all the demons, also he has a kick-ass sword
😱
now I don't recognise what you're talking about
yeah I haven't played doom 😔
Ultrakill
oh 'kay
I forgor :P
lmao
oh good one
explortin
so basically the hollow knight got sent to this weird school where he does magic and gets chased by a dude with no nose for 8 books
ex plort in
new vocabulary?!
exploiting 😈
exporting
ex-jortunson
i thought that the hollow knight got put into a car and had to score goals for eternity
nah turns out the hollow knight had his whole family slaughtered by some weird ninja dude and now has to get revenge on said ninja dude because he has cool eyes
What does the|| elegant key|| do?
read its description
makes u a lil more ||elegant||
all jokes aside it works like any other ||key||, you'll figure it out eventually
Aight
best advice bro 🗣️ 🔥
||I defeated my first dreamer and I was expecting a boss fight but like it just felt kinda sad||
||which dreamer?||
yeah...
that's because it is 😔
||fog canyon?||
Yeah I mean that
so ||monomon||
Ya
i see
||I fought a boss before it the big jelly fish that was fun||
Yeah
||I gotta fight the second hornet fight soon like I gotta try again||
I wanna get another ||mask|| before I do tho
how many are you at rn
||6||
censor it rq
Censor what
the number
Aight
preesh
you can do that if you want though ||7 hp is still not that much for a boss that hard and it's also not really necessary so only do it if you find it fun imo||
I did ||hornet 2|| with ||8|| i think
||Oh i thought it was part of the story||
well it kinda is. You can still do most of the game and story without it tho
^
||sentinel isn't that hard||
Alr
Do ya think I’m kinda undergeared at my level
||I only just got my second soul meter thing||
it's decently harder, because of the speed diff from ||protector||
you already know I'm boutta do it
:0
for newer players it is. It's not like unbeatable and they can do it. ||7 hp||
will just be a little tougher
you should tag it, yes
as i said its a decent step up
||I found nosk and didn’t stand a chance so didn’t even try again lol||
done
teehee, I'm going to do the ||fireball skip|| too tho, just gotta get more soul
||squit|| jumpscare
I need ||2 fireballs|| right?
Think so
real
For skips like that I’ve seen
at least 2- you can have 3 for reassurance
you can do it with 1, 2 is a little easier
can you really do it with 1?

I've tried doing ||fireball skips|| for speedruns but I just can't 
being on a switch nerfs you hard
ooo
So not much lag
ye
Bro I just found ||zote|| again
yeah they aren't easy on switch
nothing is unfortunately
||“Did you never consider being trapped in a cage was my intention!?!” Had me laughing lol||
I have a love/hate relationship with ||zote||
what's a good charm build for the ||colosseum of fools||, i have everything
well you can still get good at the game with practice
Which trial
last one
Ah I haven’t done that
alright
I'm decently good, I just struggle with ||skip mechs|| because I'm not used to doing them (115h completion goes hard)
I'd recommend ||Unbreakable Strength, Q-Slash, and Shamans||
is ||unbreakable shell the fragile one?||
||Guys where is the hive?||
||focus on charms that support spells/soul and nailarts so stuff like shaman, catcher, twister, grubong, nailaster's glory, shape of unn, quick focus, dream wielder, eater are all good choices. Charms that only focus on the base nail attack like qslash or strength aren't as good as they usually are||
Thanks
Not so sure about ||unn||
very hidden and you need some stuff from other places that you might not have yet
since when were ||dream warriors free with MoP||
it's in the top 3 imo
Ah alr
Where should I find next guys
for ||colo||
yeah I'd still say nah
have you tried it tho
||kingdom's edge||, ||hidden wall right from the tram||
Also the music in ||kingdoms edge|| is sick
Aight thanks
i can see its viability, but not in the ||third trial||
no worries
||the main struggle of trial 3 and what makes it hard is the floorless section||
||third trial is just first and second but harder. The good/bad charms don't really change with it||
how do i make ||fragile charms unbreakable??|| I have 105% and didn't know that's a thing
Wait where’s the ||tram|| on the map?
||RadMarmu|| tips pls
||Guys I had 643 geo when I was exploring fog canyon then I died. Then while trying to recover it I died again. But after claiming the recent shade I didn't get back my 643 geo???||
||first and second one dont have a section where you cant heal, which is imo what makes trial 3 hard lol||
||in the floorless section it's equally as bad as qfocus and wielder||
||right from ancient basin's tram||
If you die twice without claiming your shadow geo dies lol
||up slash and descending dark are your best friends||
||second trial has a floorless section as well||
🙃🙃🙃
wa
yeah and I wouldn't recommend those either
I just wandered since you didn't mention them but specifically ||unn||
||Ancient basin is far away tho||
@lofty fractal how do i make my ||charms unbreakable||
How do you guys know how much u guys have completed??
you don't need to ping specific people. Everybody in this channel can help you
asking for screenshots of their inventory/map usually is enough
||there's a shortcut from under king's station to kingdom's edge, fall down at your first chance to then head far left and fall down at the bottom, there should be an unbreakable wall to your right||
||because dream wielder is good and quick focus is a better healing charm than unn||
thanks
how do i do it then
I meant the percentage thing??
||In the black egg temple, you get to unlock seeing what % you have||
you didn't mention that before. Also that's subjective and I disagree
main menu
can't you just practically cheese it through some thing like ||ellegy, mark of pride, long nail and quick slash||
ah mb. You'll be able to see that by finding something very close to the end of the game
or was that a joke
Ok thanks
3rd iirc, not 2nd
wrong boss I believe
both
how do i make my ||charms unbreakable (fragile ones) i need help||
the ||flying grub that keeps turning into a ball and flying at you|| or?
here's the thing, don't.
why?
All I know is when you find the person who sells them they are super pricey
they are not that pricey
yeah that's ||marmu, but that build is for markoth||
||There's an npc that'll appear after you dreamnail something in the howling cliffs||
they really are
Not the fragile ones
who and where
||15K geo for strength, 12k for heart and 9k for greed|| not wortht the grind
it applies to ||marmu|| too i think, you just keep spamming up nail
well, uh oh
||dont remember the specifics, look it up, but they'll appear in dirtmouth||
not much help i can give if i just... dont know
||its behind a secret wall if that helps||
||so its not very obvious||
||stand in one corner and mainly do side slashes/jumps and side slashes if she flies high. Use your soul in form of shade soul if she isn't just about to attack and ddark if you think you need to. For charms I think I'd use strength, mark of pride, shaman, steady body, eater. You might also wanna try twister + longnail instead of mop and sbody||
that build shouldn't really be for anything 
nvm it was pretty free
gg 
so was ||Xero||
how do i farm geo quickly in end game
||Uh? What...do you mean?||
||Like a singing butterfly lady||
:D
||....Oh. Marissa. Uhhh, you CAN kill her with the dreamnail for a measly 1 essence. Its not worth it.||
Is it a fight
||no she chill||
so how do i farm geo quickly in end game
I’ll leave her be… for now
map please
||where else am i supposed to go||
Hold up you on mobile!?
ye

all of it explored
Didn’t know that was a thing
me neither tbh
Just wander I think you’ll find some stuff
it isnt
You fought a boss yet?
alr ill try again
||ye false knight and gruz||
Aight
then how am i playing :-
||colo2||
thank you
via piracy
ok dude ok
Uh I did this and it just led me back to|| kingdoms edge||…
show map
Like big map
show only ||kingdom's edge|| and your location
dms to show locatikn
?
||Rad PV|| tips please
uhh, what's ||pv||
Wont spoil you
i have 105% i just don't know acronyms well
||what are you struggling with specifically||
that means you dont have it
Its ||pure vessel||
oh, i have that. I'm not sure how to help tho
bruh
I'm missing other things
why?
||in general i get to the last phase where he summons void tendrils, but he becomes unpredictable and i confuse the tendrils with the daggers, or in other cases he is just too far||
idk, probably cuz i hate myself 
you can use ||descending dark|| after trying to react to ||tendril|| like to ||daggers||
for surviving any way
Ill try that thanks
alright keep a safe distance from him such that he isn't too close but also in your view and learn the telegraphs for both the attacks. alternative if he ||does daggers or tendrils, DDark so that even if you confuse them you stilldodge||
I see ||descending dark|| is in general just a plan B kinda like a lifesaver
where do i buy the ||map for green path||
||in greenpath or from map shop in dirtmouth||
in ||greenpath or at the map shop in dirtmouth||
||i went to the shop but the lady isnt selling it||
||find cornifer (map guy) by following the scattered papers||
alr
wait ||cornifer the guy who sold the first map? ||
ohh alr
tags
srry i forgot
Is there like any other additionally challenges in the game ||ive finished p5 and its bindings, 57 eternal ordeal, gold gpz, gonna do 5 white defender tonight, radhog been done||, just wondering if there is anything else besides like mods
