just use google lmao
k
||compass equipped, 10/10 build||
windette would be proud

||Build + tips for the watcher knights||
that's good
can i see your abilities?
||I also got 2 pale ore||
||okay yeah the build is fine
Just use a lot of ddarks. You can kill a single watcher very quickly- just spam nail, shade dash through when they slash||
||Queens gardens||
||Maybe put on unbreakable strength? ||
Does anyone have any tips for ||phase 2 of radsly||? I know the normal strat is to ||great slash after each pinwheel|| but ||the way he moves is way to unpredictable and i end up always getting hit before i can get in 12 great slashes||
||Arguably four, but sb isn't good w/o qs||
||use dash slash||
||no the thing is i dont get hit by the pinwheel that often i get hit bc i dont want to get cornered and he zips across the arena like super randomly||
thanks
i'll try that
im blocked at ||110 percent|| helpppppp
||i did all bosses all pantheons claim all charms all grubs all mask shard all vessel fragment i have map of every regions|| what i need to complete these 2% ?
Have you done ||colo 3||?
yeah, the ||third trial||
uhh no
its ||1 or 2 percent?||
ok so after that i need ||1 more percent|| how i get it?
i did 2 ||trial||
do i need have ||hunter mark|| ?
||do you have 2400 essence||
no
no
no, you do not
yeah it's not, otherwise ||112% speedruns|| would take like twice as long
||colosseum 3 is a %||
oh
do i need ||explore all places in hallownest or just get a map of every regions?||
no
do you have ||2400 essence||
yes
the first page
How do I spoiler warning an image
||you finished grimm troupe?||
Thanks
|| yes i killed nightmare king grimm||
How do I reach this item?
A: In metroidvanias such as Hollow Knight, you collect upgrades as you play, allowing you to reach new areas. If you don't think you can reach somewhere, you probably can't. Come back later when you have an upgrade that allows you to reach it.
huh
||did you talk to seer after getting 2400||
and by that he means all ||dream bosses||
||oh wait world sense requires dreamers i'm stupid||
💀
||you don't need all dream bosses for 2400||
||they definitely have all bosses, due to p1-4||
yeah i'm not really sure what you could be missing except for a random ||boss||
Ik just in some cases I can’t tell if I just suck at parkour
but they do give ||percents||
im not sure
i need ||acsension achivement right?||
||you did complete all pantheons right (1-4)||
yes
yep
or well,|| dream warriors|| do
yeppers
Do I stop for now or keep going?
💀
what, ||absrad|| is hard 😭
||im going to talk to her after my 3rd trial||
it is
okay, that's your last % then
it is ultimately your decision
Which of these builds are best for ||absrad||?
- ||Strength + QS + Shaman + Twister||
- ||Strength + QS + Shaman + Longnail||
- ||Strength + QS + MoP + Twister||
- ||Strength + QS + MoP + Longnail||
- ||Strength + MoP + Shaman + Twister||
- ||Strength + MoP + Shaman + Longnail||
- ||MoP + QS + Shaman + Twister||
- ||MoP + QS + Shaman + Longnail||
||well, how well can you dps radiance||
||at any rate MoP is not worth using at all||
Really? A lot of people say it's good for the fight
Will it save where I last was on ||path of pain if I save and quit or will it bring me to the beginning?||
interesting
||It will take you back to the last bench you've sat at. However, if you've opened the lever, that will be saved||
build 1 is probably ideal if you're good enough at the game
I've opened a ||lever recently and it was to the locked door close to the start so if I save and quit it will bring me back to there?||
That's the one I'm currently using, thanks tho lol
how do you usually die during the fight
||Usually in ascended I get wrecked in platforms even tho I play the safe strat of camping one of the platforms||
?
||YAHHHHH I DID 112%||
||When you restart you'll have to go back from the beginning, yeah||
you could use ||twister eater catcher shaman and just ddark whenever||

GGs
oooh i'll try that
I’m on ||111%, what charms should I use for pantheon 4?||
Personally I use ||Strength + QS + Shamans + steady body + nailmaster's glory (for markoth)||
Noice
i personally like to use ||qslash sbody strength nmg shamans||
LMAO i literally use the exact same thing 😂😂
(yeah ||MoP|| was a typo i was thinking of smth else)
Markoth is there😭😭 I forgot
Worst boss by far
Real
Honestly in pantheons you can ||enter with full soul then shriek a few times and then he's almost dead||
bad take 😔
Fair
to me ||radiant markoth|| isn't even in the top 5 ||radiants||
||nah man, no eyes exists||
||abrsad is the most annoying when trying to get all radiants, i've done every boss except her radiant and i haven't even done her ascended 😭||
real
|| radiant absrad for me was one of those bosses that I just had to keep playing until it worked. I would just attempt it for an hour or so every day and I got it pretty soon after that||
||you should hate on no eyes, markoth is not even that bad||
||I mean I used to be kinda noobish with HoG—i didn't even have ascended HoG until today I decided to push for like seven hours and now i have every boss except absrad radiant||
||markoth honestly is sort of fun once you get used to the fight||
yeah!!
||well that's the problem, absrad is basically as hard as most of the HoG fights combined||
which is why I think you'll spend a similar amount of time on him as everyone else combined
that's just how it is
oh
nature of being a hard as hell boss
at least that's how I saw her
the only advice I can really give is keep practicing until eventually you get that one magical run
but I haven't played the game in months so take that with a grain of salt
👍
||reminds me of when i was trying to beat p5 for the first time
kept struggling on pv and absrad so i practiced enough to beat pv on radiant and absrad on ascended
proceeded to die to no eyes, tried again, died to traitor lord, tried again, and then died to failed champion, then nkg before i finally got to pv again||
yeah that's really the way it goes with ||p5||
||the "easy" bosses need to become muscle memory and then just lock in and remember your practice for the last few fights like pv, nkg and absrad||
so true
anyone have any tips on ||charmless pantheon 5?||
||I had a huge struggle on P5, except that the only time I died to a boss that wasn't absrad was my first attempt (where i died to sly)||
||At least in my opinion, PV and NKG eventually become "easy" fights because they're super predictable and essentially rely on click patterns||
this is true
they feel like that now but the first time I hit them in ||p5|| holy that was not what I was thinking
so true!!!
once you learn how to avoid their individual attacks you're pretty much set
|| just beated p4 like an hour ago, the charm setup i used for all pantheons across 1-4 was
unb strenght
quick slash
mark of pride
theres 2 extra notches left so i usually used what i felt like ||
|| mostly it was wayward compass and gathering swarm hahaha ||
||should I save him now? do I really have to fight him 10 times to save bretta from his delusion? Wouldn't it be better just to let him rot for eternity?||
|| i mean, imo, save him, if you dont wanna fight him, leave him be, maybe when you finish the game and want a little bit more a challenge, you could kill as many gpz as you can ||
|| i didnt save him, i wish i did. my world kind of feels empty without gpz, i see almost everyone on yt kill like the 12th gpz while i dont have a single 1 ||

my bad, sorry.

The game is knda spoiled already for the amount of contents waving through social media
Oh ||bretta|| sorry you have to suffer
I will miss ||her sitting beside me on bench and blushing||
no it isnt
I was kinda spoiled 
Like a lot
So the world let be spoiled. ahahhaha!!
Ok sorry bye
try ||quickslash fragile strength carefree melody if you have it and fragile heart||
Please edit your message with spoiler tags
sorry
read this
||i cant really recommend charms but my setup for p4 was steady body, quick slash, mark of pride, carefree melody, and i forgot what the last one was||
||why people use carefree melody that much? Shouldn't unbreakable strength+quick slash+mark of pride. Better?||
anyone have tips on ||p5 charm binding, I'm having trouble with markoth any statigic tips?||
||how to do the very last phase of ascended absrad, i keep dying
||
||only cheese is grubfly||
||Honestly I'd use the same strat as people use for radkoth, playing very patinetly and using narts and shade soul||
that isnt cheese and theyre doing ||charm binding||
it gives ||a chance to let you take 0 damage from a hit, i dont really use it as much anymore tho since ive gotten better at the game||
||mark of pride is good it is a bit of a waste though when you get used to the normal sized nail it doesn't really do much unless you're having big troubles with contact damage||
oh ...dam... Pro people my bad
||the chances increases with every hit u take... it sounds kinda weird... But I haven't tried it tho||
?
Maybe I am too addicted with the range
||use quickslash to get out of the frame, when you are out of the frame the balls despawn so you can keep hitting before another spawn||
||break the habit do a couple of charm bindings||
||yeah if you get hit like 3 times without it activating you have a pretty good chance at taking no damage from a hit, it also stacks between deaths so you can use it on radiant fights||
I love my sanity
||well how about a downgrade use longnail instead||
Not to mention I haven't even touched ||pantheons and have like 106% completion||
So yeah not there yet
wish me luck I'm trying ||p5 charm binding for like the 10th time||
Good luck... ||Radiant have mercy on you
||

What should i do first?
|| failed champion, soul Tyrant, white defender or Gray Prince zote? Od should i go to the temple of the Black egg (i beat all dreamers)||
whatever u like
||if u say on difficulty curve... Lost kin<soul tyrant<failed champion...<then all the others||
||i already beat broken vessel and lost kin soo... Soul Tyrant?||
||personally failed champion is the easiest one||
||Lost kin+ defender's crest enters the chat||
||Lost Kin is really close (i honestly don't know why ppl use defender's crest it doesn't really help imo, the balloons are pretty easy to deal with anyways) but FC has an insanely easy cheese strat so||
The problem is the first phase to deal with... but yeah ik what u mean
||that isn't really a big problem bc u can enter the fight w/ full soul by dream nailing the other maggots||
Huh...now you say it...maybe I was stupid to try dodging it's attack on first phase.i should have gone "slash slash slash"
||trying to go for speedrun achievements and steel soul achievements at the same time, is there a way to get Dream Nail without Dive that doesn't require a shade skip?||
Yes
||You can go through peaks with lantern, or go through city, or cdash from gruzzmothers arena||
||i was mainly worried about going through peak too thoroughly, but it's better than nothing||
||Then you can go the cot route||
Also it's not very thorough
||Although you probably need cdash at some point anyway for the speedrun||
What
Do you have a map of ||forgotten crossroads||
Then look at the top of your map
Roughly the middle of the top
(It's the first area you enter)
||deepnest|| is my favorite horror game
why would you quit? ||also, you can't enter crystal peak from dirtmouth until later on||
||am i missing a bench in this left section or do i really have to burn 10,000 calories each time||
There is a bench at the ||spring, one at the tram
I think the spring bench is close||
You were really close to a bench though, seeing where you ||shade|| is
Like there is one at the big ||mask|| thingy
damnit ok
this has got to be the longest run without a bench in the game for sure
||I died to abs rad AGAIN 😔 ||
try playing one of the orignal souls games like dark souls 1
ds1 had me tweaking
only made it to bell gargoyles before i just stopped playing
im sorry little one
Isnt that the first boss
second boss
whoever did this will pay. it's been so long without a bench
umm wtf
||did i just get eaten||
Truly a ||p2w|| moment
Huge spoiler, ||one more then I'll have them all||
||Nah you're fine just a cutscene|| keep going you got this
||Is one taping every boss on first patheon normal thing, or is this some kind of glitch or sum||
i found ||the hollow knight, final boss i assume. im only at 59% completion so before i fight him im gonna get 100%||

you got this
Ignore the fact the ||charms is like, clearly harder than all the other bindings||
(And like, ||objectively harder than nail binding)||
azerod 
excuse me?
||Hollow Knight always has more in store for you. THK might be the final boss, or might not, you have to find out for yourself :) (unless you want help with something I'll always be glad to help ofc)||
i've heard about ||the grim troupe. how do i start it or access it?||
||same reaction, but fr now, once i start first pantheon i just on ehit every boss unless im not on nail binding, so im curious if its normal or i have something bugged||
that doesn't sound normal
||um, have you tried going left of where you landed at the very start of the game in King's Pass? That's a good hint to start I guess||
i'm here right now actually lol
O
there's a breakable wall somewhere.
Also you need ||dream nail|| for it but you already have it I take
||questionable charm build you got there||
||yeah i had to know if you had dream nail but i looked up and apparently you beat Thk so you clearly do||
i did
Am I dum
||literally, fragile strength can still one shot the collectors minions with nail binding||
i haven't beat ||thk||
I think my short term memory just stopped existing
wait you haven't?
oh im just blind
the ||charm build|| is just for exploration
nope i just found him
||In howling cliffs there should be a breakable wall that you go to the right into and find a corpse to dream nail, should be able to do the rest from there||
||lmao i just found out, i had like 12k base dmg because of some mod i installed, fixed it now. Sorry for bothering||
alright i'm gonna find this wall.
Yep
is it in ||joni's repose?||
i forgot how to make a spoiler tag
||
somewhere in ||Waterways||
Should be available in any version
As long as you're up to date
i mean be able to load it in as a save file
💀
I don't have it unlocked personally
Yeah
Actually it could also be for ||112%||ing the game which doesn't include ||p5|| as a %
||no, you only have to beat p3||
Dang
Easier than I thought but I still haven't done it
||I beat p2 like third try but it's pretty free so yeah||
||p1 took me way too long because I am absolutely horrendous at Mawlek||
i ||dream nailed the corpse, now what||
nvm
is that it?
nice
Now ||elderbug has some new "friends" ^^'||
Hi ||I discovered a shop in the Forgotten Crossroads that sells charm notch, but they're 4 version of it, what's the difference between them ????||
It’s not four different kinds
It’s the same thing four times
||you can buy each one of them however they aren't all unlocked at the start. You can unlock them throughout your playthrough by collecting charms||
||in case you didn't know: Charm notches are what limits how many charms you can equip. So there are more than just 1||
||Does that mean that if I buy the 500G, I'll have 5 charm notch???||
||And if not how does it exaclty work???||
||depends how many you have right now. It will ad 1 charm notch||
Well you start with some, I think 4
||3||
||Should I buy multiple 120G, or buy the highest one ???||
Really as many as you can, those are super helpful
But I doubt you have more than one purchasable
I have 2
||at the start of the game you have 3 charm notches. That means you can equip 3 charms that cost 1 notch, or 1 charm that costs 1 and one charm that costs 2.
If you buy one of the charm notches you will have 4 instead, one more. If you buy all 4 you'll have 4 more, so 7. There is a price difference between them because you unlock the more expensive ones later on. They aren't "better" than the cheaper ones.
Either way buy every notch that you can. Notches are some of the best things to buy in this game||
||So there isn't a difference between the cheaper and expensive one||
Right?
no
What ?!?!
Oh ok
no, there isn't a difference
It's one of the worst charms in the game
Is it even useful with bosses??? if I can't have time to recover
no it isn't, that's why it's bad. You can usually heal on any boss consistently. With ||Joni's you can't||
What about the ||Mark of Pride||???
||It's helpful and many people like it. However try not to get too used to it since it's not really worth the cost and gets overshadowed pretty quickly by much better charms for the cost that actually help you deal more damage. So as an early game option it's nice but later on try to use different charms instead. Even tho most people still love it later it's not very good||
Ok thx
And what about ||Baldur Shell||??
I want to ponder
||also pretty bad. That's really not good at all no matter how far ur into the game||
And ||Dream shield||
??
||very bad||
Really? Why though ?it helped me with some annoying bosses
||It's very expensive for what it does. It deals low damage with a high cooldown. You rely on it's position for it to block projectiles which many bosses don't even have||
I don't count on it, I just let it help me, like Tails in the Sonic games
It's true that it can help a little bit. But other charms for the same cost help much more
If you say so
And what about ||Thorns of Agony||??? It helped me with annoying small enemies
||Pretty bad as well. For smaller enemies it can be nice however by killing the enemies just after they hit you it gets rid of your chance to get back soul to heal the hp you just lost. It also does nothing against ranged enemies except reduce your invincibility frames which also makes it bad for bosses||
||for exploration you can pretty much use anything that's convenient. So compass, gathering swarm, dashmaster and catcher for example would be an option. Alternatively something with mark of pride can be nice however that might lead to you getting too attached to that charm which isn't good.
For bosses or harder enemies this early on spells are your best friend. So soul charms like soul catcher and spell twister for both healing and damage are awesome. Additionally once you have the money buying quick focus or shaman stone at the charm shop would be good. Shaman stone is superior in most situations but quick focus is great as well.||
I just bought the ||charms in the store :shaman stone,steady body, longnail, quick focus, lifeblood heart ||
Sorry if I didn't do it earlier, I forgot
||steady body is nice too. It's not necessary tho and some players like it while others don't. So try it out and see if you prefer it. Note that it will take a bit getting used to so maybe try it in your exploration build for a bit if you like||
Thx for the builds
yw 
Also, is there a difference between ||longnail and mark of Pride||???
||longnail increases by 15% while mop increases by 25%||
Ok thx
I won't use it though
Hey, I just got ||Soul eater, and apparently it greatly increase the soul taken from ennemies||, should I use it ???
||usually if you have 4 notches for it catcher + twister would be a better option. However you can try out different charm combinations if you find them fun even when they're not the best. Eater isn't great but it's certainly not a bad charm||
|| So eater isn't bad but there's other options||, got it
very powerful, but restrictive cost
has niche usage
|| does anyone have any tips tutorials for pan 3 main problem bosses are god tamer, zote, and Grimm||
||you can practice them in the hall of gods||
for ||god tamer|| i would recommend just ||spam pogoing on the beast|| and dodging the ||tamer’s attacks|| when necessary
basically lets you ||face secret boss||
you wanna know how to find it or no?
also ||makes void tendrils and kin souls non-aggressive||
||but its not the main effect||
||how do I beat grim 😩😩😩||
||practice, try different charm combinations, maybe explore more of the world to find things to boost your power||
||I have been trying to use unbreakable strength and quick slash and sharp shadow and the others I am testing out🤷♂️||
||where do i go im stuck at 2nd bench at deepnest the one beside the area to tram pass||
||if you already have sharp shadow(therefore shadow cloak, wings, etc.) and struggling with grim, best I can recommend is just more practice. perhaps you can use charms not for damage, but for survivability?||
👍
||you can look at the map and try to go to gaps in perimeter, but general direction is to the left. What items/abilities do you have?||
||i have vengeful spirit mothwing cloak mantis claw crystal heart lumafly lantern desolate dive and a sharpened nail. im using dashmaster and mark of pride as my charms. oh yeah i dont have the map for deepnest.||
👍
sure
||if you don't have map for deepnest, you missed cornifer somewhere before, and I would recommend finding him if you are stuck. You can find your way out, but deepnest is hard to move in, its a dark labyrinth. Again, general direction is to the left, lower or higher. Good luck||
||thanks ill be doing that||
basically [Major spoilers] ||while fight the Hollow knight, once you have the charm, about halfway through Hornet will show up to help. Hornet's gonna hold down The hollow knight for a little bit. DREAMNAIL the hollow knight. :)||
k
||yeah its not like there is dream essense coming out of his face to tell you what to do||

yeah, still worth saying
I mean not really
You're spoiling the whole fight for something very obvious
Could've said a few words
I am usually trying to be as less direct as I can be to let the person discover things on their own
Welp see you in 5 weeks, I'm off to stay awake at night over litterally nothing
Exactly
|| I fought hollow knight before getting void heart- ||
yea doesnt matter
*while not being useless in my answer, preferably
yea those are te best answers
||I didn't get the map but I actually got the 1st dreamer. Thanks for your advice||
you are welcome 
||yo how do i deal with these two? i died to Mato because he did cyclone and Oro was kinda chasing me||

, but use a lot of ||descending dark||
do they have any ||windows for healing though? i always get hit mid air and cant find the time to heal on the ground||
they dont rly idk, i thenk there's 1 when ||mato is cycloning and u stay under him||
but what about ||Oro?||
he's just easier to dodge prolly and 1 of them has ||less hp i think its oro cuz u fight him 1st||
*iirc
yea
i see
thanks
np
how do i grind geo?
depends how far you are in the game
ive beaten ||radiance||, im just grinding for ||15k|| for ||unbreakable strength||
3 options: ||KE grind hoppers, infected crossroad, colo 2||
so i spam ||colo 2||
yeah thats a way
||You don’t really need unbreakable charms for endgame if you’re going to hang out in godhome for the rest of your hollow life because charms don’t break there||
but ||she ate the strength already||
Ohh yeah sorry I forgot that happens I didn’t buy ||fragile charms|| when I encountered her so she never ate mine
tag ||fragile charms|| pls
If you want money try finding those ||ancient eggs and sell them||
does anyone know how to fix the bug on pc where when you select a new save it doesnt give the options for ||Steel Soul mode and Godseeker mode||? The only fix i know of is by rekilling ||THK/Radiance and redoing pantheon|| but was hoping for a permanent fix if possible
Just go do the requirements again
||p1 and an ending||
Well ||p1|| if you've done ||p3||
is there no permanent or other fix? Having to do that everytime is unfortunate

How many ||notches?||
||Shaman stone, dashmaster, stalwart shell, soul catcher, spell twister, and all 3 fragile charms||
Only 5 for now
Annoying

should i do my last ||ascended for ascHoG now?|| (||43/44 asc||)
Just use ||twister and shaman||
You should be fine with ||shade soul||
Do you want to?
well, yeah. Which ||charm build|| should i use
||pure vessel||
||qslash, strength, shaman, twister||
Wait not ||absrad?||
Still use that build
||i did abs rad as my 22th (halfway point)||
22th is wild
I prefer ||long nail over twister||
||Longnail|| takes a lot of skill to use
The range increase is very minor, more of a placebo than anything

thats ok, practice, try different approaches, charms etc.
you will get it
just reached ||phase 3|| in only ||4 attempts||
|| pure vessel || ?
whats the main tip for ||mantis lords||
yup
don't rush it
Alright I am gonna try || radiant pv ||too
gl
wdym use that isnt that a boss
can i not spoiler this
or do i have to
i was asking for a charm build and forgot to write which boss I'm going for
||any charm build for p5?||
He's easy
||Unbreakable strenght, Quick slash, Shaman stone, steady body, grubsong||
||+ for absrad : Quick/ deep focus + anything else||
||have you tried to create some useful build on your own? Try different approaches yourself, depending on if you want to mostly use magic, nail, summons, etc.||
experiment and try to find your own build before asking for help, its part of combat experience
||Ascended Pure Vessel is done! AscHoG is completed!
1 hit, very fun boss||
I don't really like when someone goes here to ask for charm build, gets recommended meta and has no problems in beating the game whatsoever. We aren't supposed to do the thinking part for the player, we just need to turn them in the right direction so they can discover the answer on their own, but a little easier
wise words
please spoiler tag your messages in this channel if they contain content from the game. You can spoiler tag messages by putting two vertical bars on each side || like this ||
?tag spoilers
🔹 Ensure Discord’s spoiler tagging is used around spoilers (People, Places, and Things should be spoiler tagged!! if you are confused, please see the pins for what is allowed ).
We do this 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.
for their attack ||you can either dash through them with good timing or dash/walk away. They always attack in the same "rhythm" so it's not purely random. Just try to get in a few hits or a nailart in between each attack but then retreat again to avoid the attack||
thanks
||can anyone give me tips for lost k||
can you spoiler tag your message with two bars on each side || like this ||? Everything from the game needs to be spoiler tagged in this channel
ok
||for lost kin note that it doesn't take a lot of hits for it to stagger giving you time to heal. It dashes and jumps around a lot so try to stay calm and not panic and get hit by it. Try to also remove the infection enemies as quickly as possible and use your spells||
||one of the biggest risks is getting hit by the jumps so you don't want to dash willy nilly bc you want to be able to escape in a pinch ||
|| I keep on just getting hit and my flow get disorientated||
||what are the effects around him? is that normal or is that essence or smth i dont wanna go back to it just to check||
||please don't mention things they might not have yet||
||dream nail him and fight a harder version of him||
whats it called so i can check wiki
||soul tyrant to be exact||
||that's likely because you unnecessarily dash or jump in situations where you shouldn't. You can do a few runs where you only focus on dodging without attacking to get used to the attacks. Also note that the boss isn't mandatory so you can just do it later if you struggle a lot||
thanks
||i find that staying relatively close to the boss helps bc it makes the jumps easier to track||
||no in p4||
why would you check the wiki
it just spoils you
Do i get double jump from royal waterways?
well i did the same for the ||pantheons||
||then you can practice in the hall of gods||
good idea
no, also please read the pins and spoiler tag your message || like this ||
bc i get lost a lot and im genuinely so confused i still dont even get what ||dream nail|| is or what i do with it
My bad
just use it on a bunch of stuff
you canedit ur message
Same here, and im 10 hours in
||is it hard and should i fight him with 6 health and 3 notchs ||
Just didnt know how to do it
||dream nail is mainly just an item for story progression. It shows you where the dreamers are located on the map so try and check them out. Imo try to figure out as much as possible on your own for the best experience||
send me a screenie abe
||that seems a bit premature but you lose nothing trying||
Or here 
huh of what
of your current build
that seems like a very difficult challenge considering it's one of the hardest bosses in the game but of course you could try
debatable
not really
donr fight
it took me like 1.5 hour to beat with alot more progression
doing it now is near impossible
there's no cost to trying but yeah it's not worth
that's basically what I said 
||generally when should i fight them ||
unless youre a god and better than fire but like yeah
||around after you get monarch wings maybe for me atleast||
you don't need to be better than fireborn. But yes for not too experienced players it's very difficult
annoying*
its a joke 💀
Not a good one 
I thought anika was typing smh
how far into the game is that
unless you are anika...

🔹 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.
youll find out just progress
dw abt it for now
I got hacked and I have to use ponder now 

mkay ill just keep exploring
very good
I actually stole anika's for meloncord but anyway
anika should hack everyone and make it so that the only emoji is ponder
no
absolutely not
last thing you do is suggest video tutorials
this option is not even on the list of what you should do in hk help
please don't troll/give video advice that contains spoilers here
read pinned messages here
only time a video tutorial is suggested is when one of the helpers here has made it and it is confirmed that the person requiring help would not be spoiled by it
which is very rare
I can't think of any case when this would be more helpful than giving general directions instead to not kill the exploring experience
unless a person dead-stuck in location or idk
still less prefered option
late game bosses like ||sly|| or the usage of certain charms and yeah it generally isn't better
even then that’s not good
as that will push the youtube algorithm to suggest more hk content
fair
Discord videos go brrr
it doesn't need to be a YouTube video
I said that it's not good, it's a very rare occurrence like 1/100000000
\
again, giving a guide is in any way isn't better than giving directions for experiments
and definitely not windetta guides
It doesn't have to be a full guide for something. It could also just be a short clip on how to get unstuck for example. Different players prefer different ways to play the game and while some may like to only get hints/experiment themselves, some others might lose interest in a game if they get stuck and just straight up want an answer to their problem
fair point, though we should assume a person asking is first case, and move to second only if said so
Actually, assume nothing and just ask
we should assume that, yes, however the second case exists and a video wouldn't necessarily be a bad option there
omg i just started a war i am so sorry i feel kinda bad tbh
you didn't start a war, its ok, just be careful
Somethings can be hard to say in words do what about that?
It's more a case of people's ability to understand, everything can be explained fine
byebye
i wanna see you out that door baby bye bye bye
My Dad is gonna see what I have on my phone
Help
It's not really related to hollow knight but on other servers people just don't see me
Do you have anything you don't want him seeing?
(why am I helping you do things you shouldn't)
Oh I didnt play cuz I had to go
Btw did you beat || p5 || ?
||Shaman, QS, Strength, Sbody, NMG||
bad build imo
Wait. Tbh I can just delete a single app. Not a lot to do.
But I just remembered all the offensive memes I have on my phone.
delete it lmao
not that hard
More than 200 memes?
select all of them and delete them together
And undelete them afterwards
yeah
Also, for the record, this is for ingame help, not help in general 
how many ||charm notches are there||
11
||can anyone give me a good build post-soul eater also tell me if theres any good charms i could get around this time||
||shaman + twister/dashmaster||
||check out the abyss again. It's hidden behind a sort of puzzle but if you think about it I'm sure you can solve it.
Another one is in fungal wastes. I'd take a closer look at the mantis village again.
For the last one it's similar to the grubsong charm so I think you know what to do||
||the other half is somewhere very bright||
thanks mate
aiggt
Well , @sacred flower beat her with that and i reached last phase versus her with this build so i think it's useful 
true
||DF is 4 notches, imo not worth||
thats not inheritly a metric of something being good but use what u want 
Use what works for you but there are way better builds 🙏
i used ||deep focus, quick focus, shaman and grubsong||
Are you sure
||do i go spell build or nail build post-soul eater||
both🙀
Are you asking for a build?
I really need someone I'm stuck
explains to you I am in ||Mount Crystal|| but I don't have the|| light which costs 1800 geo||s and to ||access the rest you have to have it I wanted|| to go back to buy it because I have enough
but I can't go back
So
What you want to do is go through ||Crystal Peak||, there's an ability you can get ||without going through any dark rooms|| that will allow you to leave the area and go back to ||Dirtmouth||. Then you can ||buy Lumafly Lantern||, and also the ability is required for other parts of the game.
Also spoiler tags please :)
I have the|| crystal peak power|| but I don't know where to go
Please also edit this message with spoiler tags
||oh guys i just realize that hornet speak japan in silksong||
but I put spoilers
🤯
isnt the only part of || crystal peak that needs lantern the area where you get dd ||
which is just a tunnel
you can leave ||cpeaks|| out to ||the left towards Dirtmouth|| using ||CDash||
Do you have the map
||And no you do not need lantern||
or get || crystal heart || and jump down to || resting grounds ||
um
oh that room
just go left until youre out
There are more than 1 exits
HOW
oh its unopened im stupid
the long room with spikes up left
no this close
|| you do need crystal heart for this though ||
ohh thanks you
Look at the map, they have it
i misunderstood
thought you were talking about the other area in || peaks || that you need || lantern || for
||i have||
You don’t need ||heart for that||?
you do though
No you don’t
||can you get void idol if you didn't save zote (and thus can't fight GPZ)?||
Yes and spoiler tags please
wait no im stupid
i forgot the || hole isnt past a heart section ||
sorryyyy
thx for the help!
Yw

what was the message
Why would someone repeat a rule breaking message
like what rule did they break
didnt ask them to repeat it
why
nvm ig
Become mod to find out
What an advrtisement
If your application is 'I want to see why people get warned', I don't think it will get accepted lol
No no it will work trust me

||im gettubg destroyed,cooked,deep fried,anihhilated,banished,ratioed,etc etc by nkg||
just like
any tips in general with || sly fight, hes kicking my ass ||
||Mop helps a lot, I would try dodging his attack attacks instead of trying to get hits until you are good at dodging them||
ty
Either use: ||sharp shadow, MoP, steady body, quick focus, or more than one of these for an easy fight ||
why || steady body isnt it useful when you get knocked away ||
||For his bird attack(not flame spawner) you can use shap of unn to just go under them, you need 66 soul though, maybe you can just have 33 with deep focus?
But for the flame spawner try not to dash unless you have to, and make sure you're in the air when you do. If you're on the ground you'll Dash right into the next ball
If you accidentally dash towards nkg when he's about to slash, if you don't have time to dash back away then pogo him and keep moving, you should just dodge his jump. But save your dash after the pogo for the flames||
||(Think that's it?)||
Please edit your message with spoiler tags
Ye sorry
Just tag the whole message tbh
wtfrick is this strat
Idek it's what worked for me
I can't dodge for shit so unn ended up helping me there
||slug use is... questionable, but it works? more consistent to just dodge fire bats without it though- jump, then dash||
literally just upslash
that stupid scythe bouncing back always get me
650 Hp
walk left and right
Don't run from it
||and Pure nail deal 21+Stren=31 Dmg per hit||
|| unn is good for nkg imo ||
|| with quick focus, you can get like 3 masks of healing when he does spikes ||
yeah, but better to not be reliant on it
how about ||carefree melody||
I should have gotten ||carefree melody|| tbh, only reason I didn't was ||grimmchild route|| was the cooler ending :)
||both arent that good|| anyways so it doesnt reallt matter
counterargument: || grimmchild|| is cute
Ok you win
||well, carefree melody can be useful for like high level gpz and crap, and grimmchild cheeses colo||
||neither is better than the other to such a degree that the difference between them is the main consideration in which you get||
Exactly, ||nymm|| is
Anyone got some charm build recommendations for ||Trial of Conquerer in the colosseum this is my current build/inventory but it’s not working so great (channeled nail)||
can i see your inventory (abilities and etc)
no, she isn't. Also spoiler that.
||go talk to Sly, he'll give you something that you should definitely use for colo. Also, revisit places in Crystal Peaks that you needed dive or crystal dash for||
||Who’s sly? (I can’t remember anyone’s names)||
||shopkeep in dirtmouth||
Ok thanks
How the hell did you get that much geo 
For ||colo|| your main objective should be to one shot everything
So using ||nail arts and spells is a must, so you put on shaman stone, as for the remaining notches it depends, grubsong is amazing in colo, dreamwielder while it may seem niche can let you get back up to full soul by farming the last enemy of any given wave, mark of pride can be good, as is every other soul gathering charm (spell twister, soul catcher…)
||
just defeated ||radiance with grimm and i am 100% sure he was the reason for it 😌||
||grimmchild does about 11 damage every 1.8 seconds, for reference a single pure nail hit without strength is 21, and most of the time grimmchild doesn't even hit it's shots, so probably not||
nah trust my buddy was helping me out :)
Whatever floats your boat I guess 
Finally. , ||nkg radiant||
im doin a ||steel soul|| run and am wondering how much harder is ||second hornet fight|| compared to ||hk||?
scared of her
|| hornet two is basically hornet one but more annoying foreground and the same albeit more annoying attacks ||
you can always practice it on a normal run in ||hall of gods||
ofc it depends imo its a pushover, for some its hell 
k thx
Hi, ||I found in Ancient Basin a fountain that says will relieve me of my burdens, and give me an option to put all my Geos, does smth cool happens if I do it ???||
yep!
yes, though you need a lot
But what does it do ???
|| 3000 geo for a vessel frag ||
||1 more soul holding thingies||
That's it ??
Ok thx, I won't put my geo in it
How do I do the spoiler thing
does anybody know what the ||void lake|| does if you don't turn on the light? i don't and would like someone to gimme gimme a clip pls
K
k
||anyone have tips for zote in the pantheons, I’m on pan three and he’s the only reason I can’t do it||
Practice him in ||hog||
||It’s basically just a ton of super huge void tendrils||
And you can’t go over them no matter how high you are
So,|| ddark||
clip pls? (i understand if no)
I don’t have one, but I saw it when I was watching some dude stream
ok which guy which stream?
It’s not really anything special
It was like a week ago dude
yeah but i rly wanna see
glock?
i hate || flower quest || sm
real
||charms for nkg? (i have all)||
You can rather beat ||nkg|| or not
||grim child|| kinda sucks for me
spoiler tags man
Oh sh
This is more of a question than needing help, how early in the game was I supposed to get to|| deepnest? Because the map only cost 38 compared to most places and I’ve been in places like kingdoms edge before this.||
not rlly a problem anymore
u can get there right after ||mantis lords|| but u can't really navigate it without certain ||spells and ablities||
you can also get there from one of the entrances to ||queens gardens||
noice now do ||pantheon 5||
sounds scary.
oh you don't know the half of it

this also isnt rly the channel for that
i sory
||it only costs 38 because it's barely filled out. You can go there at basically any point after mantis lords, but it's quite a tough area||
Found that out the hard way ||as soon as you sent me this message I ran into Nosk whoever the hell this thing is||
Remember game progression isn't linear so you can go wherever you want as long as ||your abilities allow you to do so||
||no shaman stone? no sbody?||
||twister and sharp shadow are hardly necessary
and you'll have a surplus of soul with eater anyway||
||imo i feel as if sharp shadow is pretty good in this fight bc of extra damage so mb,gonna unequip twister||
||sharp shadow is kind of a crutch tbh, especially for pv where shade dash is long enough to go through any of its attacks||
||sbody makes it a lot easier to chase and hit, and makes it safer to attack during pillars or focus attacks||

Agreed, even with ||spell spamming, if you are hitting the boss even a little between each spell you’ll always have enough soul to use another spell to follow up||
<@&283547423706447872>
I keep dying in ||cof to the part where the mantises appear for the first time, what can i do here? I usually dont have enough soul to kill or heal and must rely solely on yhe nail wich eventually leads to me dying bcs i cant dodge the spinning blades plus the meele mantis||
||dodge one attack, nail art||
if theres only one remaining, you can ||heal after each hit||
Does anything happen if I let ||her eat/kill me? I ask since she talks some stuff that sounds interesting then goes into a hungry rage.||
wheres that ||1 soul warrior that uses a scythe||
From wich one of the 3
What areas do you have?
||GS or DS||
nope
every, ive beaten ||radiance|| and i have to find him for ||pantheon||
||you'll find him in deepnest.||
ty
||also, soul warriors are the teleporting dudes with nails in soul sanctum||
||you're talking about dream warriors||
yep mb
||can i do flower quest without shade cloak||
yes
iirc theres only one ||shade gate blocking, and you can go around that one through an alternate entrance||
Do i need something for that
spoiler tags.
||shade cloak it is||
What's a good way to get back into hollow knight I really want to finish it but a certain part killed my enthusiasm and it's been hard to try to get back into it
put music on and get lost?
tried that it worked up to a point
Can't remember what the area was called it had a type of liquid that damages you and i just got annoyed with it
probrably
Could you please spoiler tag your message? This channel needs you to use spoiler tags to avoid spoiling newer players
nvm bru
As for the issue, could you please give a bit more detail
its like theres only 2 waves insted of how ever many there used to be idk bru
for skins
yea
i dont have it on steam
How you using mods then
Try disabling your mods and seeing if that fixes the issue
how?
Do the reverse of how you enabled them?
I didn't know you could get mods on gamepass tbh
what
Just reinstall the game
If that doesn't work, go to #1057825333841240104 and be specific with your issue
will i lose my save file?
You're on PC, correct?
yea
Then save files are almost always stored in a separate place
If you want, back it up to be safe
Actually, just back it up
how? i only had my pc for a few months idk what ur talking about lmao
Go to where the save file is, and drag it to your desktop
?
No I don't know where it's located on gamepass, google it
Are you on windows
If so, just reinstall the game
It's saved separately to the save file
so delete it and re download it
mhm
its re downloading what do i do now
ok
Lumafly…
I thought lumafly needed steam
Nup either one works
Why would I check when I don't use anything xbox
