need to use a spoiler tag for ||inventory|| /jk
just to be clear /jk means its a joke
Also i can't believe that i have to fight our sibling every single time to get to ||Radiance|| and somehow fail.
Uff
Another one who didn’t buy the game
||Shaman strength quick slash is a baseline, you don’t need that much health, you will need to learn how to dodge her at some point
About anything can fill those last two notches, including heart
You want to use spells often as she is a big stationary target so an easy one to hit with them (though good luck using the quick cast key on that)
For the platform phase you really should stay in the same place and not chase her around, it’s too dangerous||
Where can I find || the boss to get fluknest charm|| ?
||royal waterways||
I know that but specific
Well I've just beaten it and wow this guy looks so cool
Ill show a picture in a few minutes
Ok reply to this so I’ll see it @tight fox
Lemme show you
Here, the cocon
You'll find it here
How can I unlock the ||grimmchild|| area and get the ||charm|| ?
You mean how to start the ||grimm troup dlc||?
Yeah
There's a hidden place in holwing cliffs
Heres the path
Plus snailed
I sent a bigger image
Huh
I've answered his question 4 minutes before you 😭
Are you asking for the specific location or just the region?
But i drew a path
The location, I think I might've missed it
High quality snail then lmao
Ok
You'll need ||dream nail||
No ||dream nail and claw||
I started going there naked 😭 ||No charms I mean lol||
What should I use just in case I'm gonna have to fight smth
||Quick slash, mop, shaman||
||heavy blow glowing womb and dream shield||
||Wayward compass gives + ten masks it’s the best||
most of the time ||wayward compass is actually better than glowing womb for combat lol||

||TWO OF THEM DOWN, I GOT STRESSED AND FELL INTO SPIKES||
You beat ||wayward compass boss!||
BOTH THE BEST AND MOST FRUSTRATING ATTEMPT
Who are you talking to?
@novel locust
Bro thats an uncspoiler
||whats mark of pride||
…
||MARK OF PRIDE IS THE REWARD FOR BEATING MANTIS LORDS!!!!||
…
do i press that spoiler

No
ok
||wait will the mantises still do contact damage after i beat lords||
||no bc ik that the mantis warriors become passive unless i hit them||
Honestly idk
@tight fox
^^^
We summon @tight fox for knowledge

its actually going to be a single word
Today is november 25th 2024 this is aurora your host for today bringing you your daily silksong news there has been no news to report for silksong today this has been your daily news for silksong for today november 25th 2024 ||hey||

Guys, do anyone has a good build for the ||Sly bossfight||? Really want to || radiant him ||since it's the only major boss that isnt, yk... ||Nightmare king or Radiance herself|| and it feels like I should have defeated him for a while
||wait for his attacks then hit him twice||
nebenio if you answer their question before mine i will find a way to join your steel soul game on nintendo switch and obliterate you
Lol

|| Oh, that would actually help! I always rush it with him,,, I probs should be more patient, bleh ||
So uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what was your question?
||do the mantis warriors deal contact damage after i beat mantis lords||
No
|| What about his second phase where he becomes a disk out of the White Palace? Same stragedy? ||
||dash away when he does the attack then hit him once. if you can do it with nailarts you should do it with nailarts||
|| Ooh, I see! Thanks alot. ||
U didn’t have to spoiler tag you know
Bleh
||also look at where he's dashing so you know which way to dash||
I just got ||weaver song and went to leave the area and saw a spider dude run out what was it||
||a weaver||
Oh I’m dumb
||What charm makes more of the spider minions ||
||just weaversong||
||There’s a charm combo but idk what charm it is||
Bro how many times do i have to beat ||Grey prince zote???||
||weaversong & sprintmaster||
racind eg omlet
ok
good evening everyone
good evening
Good morning
it's not morning 
It is afternoon
||what area is the up spell in cause i cant find it||
||show map pls or do u have all areas||
||i have all areas just am too lazy to get the maps||
||it’s near the area between fog canyon and queens gardens iirc||
Intersection not area
oke
It is for me
Is ||Quick Slash|| better then ||Quick Focus?||
Most ppl would agree yes
Like a lot better
But their nature is different
||most of the time yes but sometimes you should equip both||
Anyone got tips for ||the Nightmare King||
I only beat them once and it took me forever in the practice area in ||Godhome||
||healing build (quick focus, unbreakable heart, deep focus, soul catcher) think thats all you can fit with max notches||
Ok I'm talking like dodging tips and easier techniques for each attack
I know like ||wait for first bat jump over second and dash
Pogo and dash over their homing dive and such|| but like I can't figure out good techniques for the rest other than the ||flame pillars and just walking||
oh my bad sorry
i mean you can usually get a ||heal|| when he does the ||floor spikes or fire pillars||
if you need to ||heal||
||for the thorns attack the best advice i have is dont jump and practice your reaction time||
||Queens gardens near the entrance from fog canyon, I believe the temple is only a few rooms away from the giant thorn thingy with the acid pool||
i founded it

🔹 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.
guys
how does ||dash|| work
is there a limit or is my nintendo switch bugging out
ok yeah its just my zr key
ive switched the buttons for ||dash|| and whatever ||super dash|| is for now
While ur in the air ||u can only dash once, but pogoing on anything while mid air resets it||
ik about that, my zr key was just not working sometimes
O what's zr
||soul sanctum is the worse place in this game||
Where should I be headed with what I have?
||Maybe get an ending smh||
Well I mean just look at your map, see something odd on it?
Did u go to ||the place beside city of tears||
Dw I got it :)
Yeah let me just go hack in and get the ||tram||
Ive tried ||uumuu, watcher knights, broken vessel, failed champion, deepnest|| but I can't get anywhere in any of them
does anyone know how I can cut that vine?
come from the other side
like where..
you dont have it yet
what is it? it's okay if i get spoiled
at this point just go on google
if you want to know all the information, its much faster to just use the wiki instead of asking here for every roadblock
Well you kinda need to beat them
Yeah I know but I was wondering if maybe there is an order of ease or maybe a step I missed?
Just a different area
But that doesnt really matter now cause I went and ||awoke the beast||
This isn’t a linear game
There is only optimal order but no correct order
And honestly being optimal should be the least of your worries
There has to be one order that is easier
Eh
Yeah?
But why would you want to?
Just play the game. 
Cause I'm bad at the game and I suck at combat
If you are struggling with bosses, ||Deepnest will be the easiest, but that requires some good platforming skills
Broken Vessel is the easiest boss out of them followed by Uumuu, Failed Champ and then Watchers||
And I dont have the patience to play the game for long periods of time (or the time really)

Platforming I'm great at
Oh yeah did I ||mention it’s absurdly dark smh||
But you probably already know that
I would still suggest going for ||BV|| first since it gives something very useful

Yeah I beat it just a few minutes ago
Doesnt it give you ||monarch wings||?
Ohh
Idk I suck with names of stuff
I have seen worse dw
tag ||soul master|| next time. i'll delete your message for now
Spoiler tag ||broken vessel|| too please
i'll delete that
Thanks
(And hi gwnj
)
hi otso 
What's happening?
just some random guy forgot to tagged his message
Coolio
||how many ticks does shriek do? its 4 right?||
Yes
||Iirc, you lose the last one if you start moving or press some other input too early||
||4 ticks a 30 damage?||
yea methinks
My hollow knight keeps crashing because I have installed it on an external SSD what should i do
It's actually ||20 damage per tick|| without ||Shaman Stone||
Who are you
i came here about last month
asking for help on ||watchers||
i came a long way from that
||Desolate Dive/Descending Dark|| with ||Shaman Stone|| is the awnser to every single one of them
i did that but with all ||spells (upgraded)||
now im stuck on ||nkg||
-
Don't jump around too much in the fight
-
Take Oppurnity to hit him
-
Why did you sarcifice ||Brumm||
im bored, how do I make this god awful synergy work
There are plentiful of thing to do like ||Path of Pain||, ||Grey Prince Zote on Radiant||, ||Get rich and then lose all of them||,etc...
And you choose to do this to yourself
W h y
already did those
also ||big fluke fart funny||
||how to get to that grub?||
There's a vacumm hole there, find that and don't mistake ||The Mimic|| as ||Grubs||
You're both kinda slow and correct
||i already felt for that in crystal peak. Killed the mimic, went back to dirtmouth, saw that the grub is still There and needed to come back||
And that's why the ||57 Precepts of Zote|| exist
||also how to get to that grub that you can hear next to the white lady in queens garden||
I listened to only 36 for now

There's also a fake wall, you need to ||C Dash|| just in the right place iirc
whats that
The dude that's playing a instrument music before you defeat ||Normal Grimm||
hate that guy
so do I get more quicker and aggressive at using it or
I mean its mostly good against ||"small bosses", like watcher knights|| but yeah ||save soul and spam 2-3 at a time||
alright thank you
keep in mind that ||shriek|| does way more damage anyways so dont always value ||fluke|| above it
oh yeah im aware dw
But this amulet is really strong.
guys whats a good ||build for pantheons||
yeah but ||shaman strength qs sb and nmg/overcharm w fury|| my beloved
^^
@split linden hes pointing to the build above
cool
I assume so, ||soul warrior will take a lot of fluke damage no matter when you hit him with it cause he is constantly moving||
i now have personal hatred for ||no eyes||
i had to listen to that stupid music for 3 HOURS
cause i couldnt hit the ||boss||
easy solution: no volume on
nah
you see the music makes me want to strangle ||her ||more
not risking it
anyways
ima go attempt to murder ||white defender||
i forgot how much i hated these damn ||sewers||
help im lost i dont got the map
nvm
found it
hey if i want to play ||GodHome||, what percentage savefile do i need to download?
Percentage don't matter
You just need ||upgrades||
Also technically u can get there early game
i don't have ||unbreakables|| so i need a savefile that does
.....i cant, i wouldnt be asking here for help
|| fragile charms|| do not break in || god home || though
cool that's good to know, thank you
How can I fight ||NKG || again? I can only find ||grimm || at ||godhome||
Nvm I just had to use ||dreamnail||
these charms good for ||Trial of the Fool||?
If you're going for a ||nail ||based playstyle, those ||charms ||sure are good
is there any merit to fighting the ||binding ||things in ||godhome ||with anything other than all the ||bindings ||on?
"nail" isn't a spoiler
yes
what is it?
does ||all bindings|| do something special?
going one by one is the same as doing all at once?
upgrades (||in the hot spring during pantheons||), they are all individually checked, you can do any of them at any time to get the merit
and i don't need it to do them all at once is what i understand then, right?
no unless you're mega cool
also what are "upgrades"? i don't know if i understand
gotcha
Yes all at ones is just for cosmetics
and achievement i would imagine
HAHAHAHAHA || no achievement ||
||get 8 total bindings to unlock a secret breakable wall with lifeblood on the left, each 4 extra total bindings gives more lifeblood||
f
thanks
oh so then it doesn't make sense to do the ||bosses ||before the ||bindings|| this is so complicated
you mean the room below?
@foggy spruce btw after || 16 bindings u dont Get extra lifeblood instead u get acces to a super secreat area in the gamev||
yeah the ||storm ||thing or whatever
|| bosses are there just for practicing pantheons||
yeah
that's a playground basically
going there with more ||lifeblood ||would make completion easier, no?
Wait no
you can't lmaoo
U miss understood
U get more || life blood in pantheons ||
U don't get anything extra in boss fights sadly
the ||hot springs appear in the pantheons for healing||
Ye so do the || bosses || first
for practice
i plan on 100% this so it's going to get done one way or another
Yeah but thr first || pantheon|| dosent really need practice u should try it fr
the hardest shit in this game has no achievements or anything
Should I ||over charm|| as I'm attempting ||radiant nkg||?
why wouldn't you
It's my first ||radiant|| boss
||the only downside of overcharming is double damage and you die in one hit anyway so it doesn't matter||
Sure but why not do it without charms 
What should I add?
remove ||sprintmaster||
Alright
It's really what helped me with this boss
how often do you use ||spells?||
Only for the 4th flame strat
|| shaman ||
Use || d dark || when u have to ||pogo ||him
Its way more effective and safe
alright ||ok sprinmaster/Dcrest + OC Shaman||
I play very safe against bosses like this usually
Genius
I'll keep that in mind thanks
||Dcrest? OC?||
I'll attempt it after school, thanks
|| defenders crest ||
||defender's crest, OC means Overcharm||
no other good 1 notch charms for ||NKG||
unless you are gonna do ||Nart combos||
idk it was drntrm's suggestion 
I don't like that
I think I'll go with this set of ||charms||, thanks for the help
Going to school now, cya
Yippe 
||one suggestion, except for certain bosses, most bosses are easier with MoP on radiant||
I'll keep that in mind, thanks
holy macaroni on a popsicle the ||fragile strength|| does so much damage
it's only 11 more damage smh
It's || strength + quick slash || that deals insane damage per second
Not || strength || alone
||(that's worth nearly 3 nail upgrades of damage)||
yeah and the || steady body||
tags btw
Wait u are ||steady body || user 
imagine not using it smh
yea op

I can't live without || unbreakable heart || 
skill issue smh
True
TRUE
imo ||WD sucks as a boss||
a what
||Hegemole||
the previous owner of ||false knights armour||
okay then
idk how to spell his name
honestly you wanna fight all 5 ||great knights of Hallownest?||
||make it like a memory of defender watching hegemole sparring with small hollow knight and then make the knight small hollow||
i really do but cant install the mod cause i play on switch
should have bought pc 
you don't have a pc?
I don't have a console 
nah i have a shitty chromebook
moer than enough to run HK
this thing overheated opening 7 tabs yesterday
i was studying for a test that happens tmrw
You can run hk on basically anything
i cant use steam on this
I managed to run it on a shitty school laptop
it aint a mac so steam just wont work

hmm, yes ?
Does ||unbreakable greed|| also work in the ||colosseum of fools|| ?
nope
Sadly not
Wait what u need do much ||geo for?
unbreakable || charms ?
Yepp
I think || hoppers ||are faster than || trail 2 || but not entirely sure
How do you still need that much after selling everything lol
They probably used all || geo || for the first charm 
Did you avoid ever ||killing enemies before
Usually people need to find like… 10 leftover k, not 30||
I've already bought ||greed|| but lost my ||shade|| along the way with like 6k
But yeah, to farm geo late game you have two ways
An interesting, but slower one
Or a mind boggling dumb one, which is faster
Either you do ||colo 2 over and over, or you farm hopper|| like they do in this vid
||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2T7sw-pqYM||
This geo collection loop I devised should be faster than any other method you find on YouTube, except that OOB one I posted the other day (but this one's much easier). Soul is self sustaining. Rate of gain will be in the neighbourhood of 715 geo per minute give or take a nickel. Charm loadout is shown at the end of the clip but it's NMG Twister ...
700 geo/minute means that this will be over in some 30 minutes
Still not the best at ||colo 2|| so I think ||hoppers|| are better
A lot, but doing 10 ||colo 2|| is not gonna take 30 min
Also, I saw a ||weird mushroom in fungal||, does he do anything later on ?
Hm
Sounds funn
(and I have no clue how you are supposed to do it without looking it up personally lol)
Hummm… yeah… they do I think
Little fella drained me out of health completely 
You don’t wanna lose that geo 
That said, ||grubs|| are indeed a great way to get cash so
Thankfully ||Kin|| won't make me lose it even if I fail
If there's one hole for them left, does it mean I'm missing only one ||grub|| ?
Probably
And is there a marker for them ?
Which also means that you can use ||fragile charms|| in that fight
Wait really ?
May I see your inventory?
Yes
If you can’t ||answer that question, it must mean you have more than one left||
Won't they break ?
Okay yeah true
I am dumb asf
Nope, cuz you ||never die actually||
You don’t spawn a ||shade||
Tysm
That was... Scary

But I've found so manyyy 
And it's been a while since the half achievement for them
Most || grubs || are fairly easy to get but last ones are quite tricky unless you have a certain item ( u don't have it) 
How do I get it 😭
Show me your map I can help 
There's an item in || queens garden || that u need
Do I have to beat him up in order to get it..
Specifically near || fungal waste|| side
Cause if that's the case, I might wanna wait with that
No not the boss
It's on the opposite side to the boss
how would we know smh
explore the area
what did you find?
well then you haven't explored everything
up
uh idrk
anything you want
scrmbld racid eg
||you cant buy charms in city of tears||
tags
You spelled it wrong
Grammar
Punctuation
Financial advice
I cannot do for the life of me ||pure vessel|| at the ||end of pantheon 4||
I neeed help
spoiler tags, i dont know what those things are so please avoid spoiling people
Idk how to do that
like this ||spoiler tag with this thing | ||
|.|hi||
like that but without the period
||anyways HOW THE FUCK DO I GET PAST SOUL SANCTUM I HATE THE FLOATING GUYS WITH HOMING BLASTS||
did you read the rules for this channel
||soul sanctum is the place of suffering||
I like it
in my experience: run away, dodge (use platforms to block their ||evil soul blasts||), get some hits, repeat
The music is kinda nice there

One day you will know what bloody hell is
||getting to soul master is the annoying part, ive decided to just use spells for him so im running spell twister and shaman stone, so i have to get through the hell without stalwart shell and dashmaster||
||i like to kill the soul twisters with vengeful spirits, i think it takes like 3 or 4||
||you got thorns of agony and baldur shell?||
||yeah no im just gonna howling wraith||
what are you struggling with?

me and @serene granite are at around the same place rn
Just ||how fast he is and he does so much damage||
that's not something I can help with 
or anybody can for that matter, you just need to practice and get used to the speed
Yeah ik
||what I do is I just fucking bolt it past the fucking casters and spam as many spells as humanly possible until you get to the boss room||
i sadly need one more ||charm notch|| to equip ||dashmaster||, also where is the ||shopkeepers key|| for ||sprintmaster||
||those casters are the most annoying enemies in the game I swear||
REAL
||crystal peak||
||i dm'd you the route to soul sanctum||
||don’t waste a charm notch on dashmaster. Shopkeepers key is in the Crystal Peaks||
||time tog rind out 1.8k geo||
||also make sure to get an extra 800 for the key Sly sells you after getting shopkeepers key, NOT THE SIMPLE KEY.||
||sly is def scamming me bro i know his ahh went to fog canyon for 2 minutes, kidnapped a fly, and took it back to sell it in a jar for my life savings||
||Trust me that’s not even the most expensive item in the game||
||exit game then go back in, you respawn at your last bench||
What should I use for ||Kin|| ? \
||idk the best charm loadout, but just as a general tip for the fight, stay on the ground. Only one of his attacks requires you to jump to dodge it, so just keep that in mind||
SPOILER TAG YOUR ||CHARMS||
I did
oh
They did goober
I MISCLICKED NOOO
Thankss
how many ||notches?||
Though I have to get rid of the lil ||ghosts|| and it's hard to stay on the ground
9
||Shaman, Strength, Quickslash||
||Defenders crest to deal with those little fuckers||
||unfortunately not enough notches to bully him in a corner|| 
Thankss
Would love to use it if I had just one more ||notch||, I have no idea how to get those
Last one I got was from the ||colosseum||

I've just beaten ||nkg radiant|| following your advice from earlier, thanksss
did you buy off ||salubra||
||you might be able to buy one from salubra||
yw 
Yup
and congrats 
PEAK
Massive respect bruh
you got the one from ||the Grimm Troupe dlc?||
Thanks
Didn't beat the boss yet
that is one btw
||you mean daddy Grimm or the grimmkin (because those grimmkin are so damn annoying they might aswell be a boss for me)||
||I mean daddy Grimm 😭||
Apparently I suck at dancing lmao
Any idea the bosses I miss for ||p3||?
I said what I said
||elder hu and Galien||
Alright thanks
||you'll find them in Fungal Wastes and Deepnest respectively||
You really only need them if you suck ass
nothing
||there is a dude who can teleport ur shade for 1 rancid egg||
Oh alright, thanks
||you use them to retrieve your shade, so basically useless||
Im in late game, ||
where do i get lots of geo || i dont really need it, but still.
how late game we talking
||best I can do for ya is trial of the fool||
||Colo2||, if you're an endgame player
(Don't bother if you can't complete it quickly)
Ok thx
Doesn't matter how bad the tactics, I did it 😭
Lmao
Why would you use such ||charms ||lol
I couldn't find the time to heal 
||Dcrest allows you to not worry about the ghost||
Chat how am I even supposed to kill ||crawlids||, like bruh none of my ||spells work on them, these little shots are fucking immune to D-Dark and I get oneshot||
that's the neat part, you don't
Oh right I've forgot about the ||ghosts||, that makes sense
is this a joke 
(Yes)
here is the thing ||you have no time to heal in LK anyway so using Joni's doesn't affect anything negatively||
I wouldn't have had the time to heal either way so the extra ones were really useful
||You do have some time to get one heal or two if you're lucky enough, he gets stunned whenever you deal a specific amount of damages to him||
Never use any of the ||lifeblood charms||, just practice their attacks to dodge, and use the extra ||notches for an offensive charm||
||Yeah but I'm not that good at timing it + half the time when he got stunned I just hit right away||
- ||that's not how staggers work||
- ||ghosts + the stagger is too short for a heal even worth||
different playstyles smh
By using ||DCrest ||he has the time to heal
I know right
||stagger time is the same||
guys people have different playstyles, be nice to everyone 
I didn't mean it that way

What type of build should I use for ||p3 ||and ||pantheons ||in general?
My playstyle is mostly patient
I avoid risks even if it takes longer to kill
||If that’s the case, I would suggest a spell and healing build||
depends on playstyle
||meta/highly aggressive build: Strength Shaman QS Sbody NMG
survivabilty build (if you suck at dodging): Strength Shaman QS Heart
speedrun build: Flukenest QS Shaman Sbody Fury||
for a late game charm build ||shaman/quick slash/strength is a base line then you can add stuff like heart/spell twister/any combination of grubsong, nmg, dream wielder, sbody to finish; you can also replace one of the first 3 charm with MoP||
I hate ||spells || actually, I mainly punish with ||nail or DDark ||
obv you can play around with stuff and see what you like
Me when ||DDark is a spell:||
Specking into one thing in particular generally isn’t good, it’s always better to try to use as much as your kit as possible
You will have ||diminishing returns if you pick let’s say, all healing charms, or all nail charms||
I ||don't suck at dodging, I just patiently wait until I can hit the boss (mainly with nail or spells when I'm 101% sure I'm not in danger) and eventually it dies||
With that said obviously use what you like, but in terms of being optimal, well there is a rather clear cut answer
I don't really need healing either
||where do i find leg eater, someone dm me his location on the map||
||Strength quick slash shaman|| and then whatever you like then
||Late game bosses don't let you do that anyway excepts when stagger or the bench break in pantheons||
Alright thanks
Entrance to ||fungal waste from crossroad
In a room to the right of the initial fall before the fork||
Usually not true
But getting those heals off requires a lot of game knowledge and you probably don’t know how to, and that’s understandable
Well if so I certainly don't have that knowledge yea
I can't think of anything that'd do good as a|| 1 notch charm for pantheon||, what do you think?
Anything but ||nail master's glory|| though 😭
||how do I open this||
||maybe grubsong?||
||Cut the rope ||
How
Well from above with ||nail||
||Grubsong, dreamwielder, steady body are all good options
You can also use a two notcher, like heart, spell twister (soul catcher|| to favour heals)
😐
Yea I guess that'd do, I don't have much|| soul generating charms nor do I have spell twiste||
Another who didn’t buy the game
Tldr is you need to get there from the other side, which you will find yourself on in like 30 hours
Honestly I can't come to think to a situation I'd need ||steady body, is it just to be more comfy or will I really need it in specific cases?||
It helps in some places to get more damage
Like for example on ||soul master you can follow him flying away
And on many of bosses that take knockback you can follow them as they get hit, which enables you to get more hits with quick slash||
But the more you look the more you see
If you are stuck between ||Grimm and their spikes you can hit them
You can better get hits on dungy while they are throwing balls…||
It does wreak muscle memory
You mean like I may end up dependant of it?
||grubsong or dream wielder||

Alright thanks
||at the start of soul sanctum then left ||
Wdym?
you can probably go to other bosses, technically
nebenio also reacted with a ✅ to my message
||soul master is the easiest ||
The thing is... its strongly recommended that you beat ||soul master|| rn
Why?
how do you make a text a spoiler?
I summoned why
You press the eye
lol
and it will mark as a spoiler the blue thingy, idk english
ty :)
Ok I know the channel says to not say this but…
Just git gud
papyrus?
||insert spoiler||
wahoo
Which attacks do you struggle with?
I would strongly encourage you to keep trying, if you really dont want to, there are two options:
- ||There was an npc, "Quirrel" that you probably encountered, he probably recommended you to upgrade your nail, you could try search how to do that (search in game, not in google lol) and then keep doing attempts, it should be easier||
- ||You can exit the soul sanctum by going to the top left part of the city, you can probably find it yourself. Then you can explore whatever thing you have left to explore||
tbh a YT guide can really help you figure out the patterns if you really really struggle
||what charms do you have?||
||Soul Master can be tricky for new players, considering how much he teleports and his fake outs, but one really helpful trick for healing is during his attacks where he summons 4 death balls and flies across the arena, when he teleports away just stand in the middle of the arena and it won’t hit you, easy heals||
||Also make sure to use spells and nail arts||
You can probably explore more, as 90% of the bosses of hollow knight are technically optional
||If you think about it, SC is optional aswell||
||Hollow knight (NO WAY), Uumuu, Watcher Knights.||
it would probably be a spoiler, but the final boss and 2 more
oh well... ig here are the names
Hey, they asked
You aren’t a speedrunner
Play the game as you are now
I bet that literally no player only beat 3 bosses on their first playthrough lol, you are exploring an amazing world and collecting cool stuff
?tag uncspoilers
🔹 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.
You can eventually
Dawg if you ain’t gonna accept the help we offer you then why are you here

Focus on defense maybe
Because that’s really not how you should think of it
3 bosses is the minimum
You arent skilled enough
If ur new at the game, theres no way you can beat them without many abilitys, which are also locked beind bosses
Just take your time
||soul master is 100x easier than beating the game in 3 bosses||
Exactly what I said before
You aren’t a speedrunner dude
Don’t play the game just for the sake of getting it over with
Like really, its way too hard to do it with 3 bosses
Bro is not fireborn
This isnt a game you should ,,speedrun“
Some guy is salty that he can’t ||beat soul master||
Dude
Just explore
Look for empty spots in your map
And for what i can see yall didnt really help em
||you can farm 1800 geo and skip soul master||
Depends on your progress, can you show a picture of your map and abilities so i can nudge you in another direction
Btw for the future @frosty gazelle refrain from saying things like "get good" in this channel, read the pins
Not much to work with but theres a few things you can do
yeah maybe farming 1800 geo is the best
You could ||go to someone in city of tears youve probably already met, their name is lemn||
Recall em?
i told you that like 2 hours ago
||you can sell your relics to him and then go back to buy the lumafly lantern in dirtmouth||
||from there you can either check deepnest or the right side of crossroads||
||that can give you 80% of the geo you need||
You coud also ||buy the simple key if you havent already, and check out that locked place in city of tears||

hey so ||troupe master grim doesn't stagger when you have unbreakable strength and heavy blow charms?||
No
ah dang I see
||do not subject them to that hell|| /j
What ? Why ?
Why would it not ?
Hi azerod
||he does stagger||
Its not skipping, you can just do the next logical step in the game a different way
he hasn't been staggering for me lol
it's frustrating af 😭
||either beat soulmaster, or buy lantern. Id did tell you that||
Actually long time no see Ismoil (or at least I feel like)
hope u doing well
So yeah either of these are options you have rn @serene granite #hk-help message #hk-help message
There might be a few other places but those are the major three
Youre judging
People play games however they like
||he turns into a bat when you stagger him||
Its not your problem how people play their games, thats up to them
The way you phrased it was rude imo
||also i wouldn't recommend using heavy blow||
Yeah sry, im not so good at english
||heavy blow kinda blows yea||
||yh Ik but when you have those two charms on bro just goes to the second phase without the stagger||
||he doesnt have a second phase, and staggers dont always happen||
I haven't made it past that so lol
He has the ||puffer fish attack, i assume youre talking about that?||
||frankly, grimm is just a skill check. you have to learn the attacks or you will probably die||
yes
Yeah those happen ||at 75% health left, at 50, and 25%||
||but for some reason when I use those specific charms I observed he doesn't stagger||
||which charms?||
||you can find a new area in crossroads||
U know where ||lantern || is?
It may just not be correlated at all,|| staggers occur when you hit a staggereable boss quickly without getting hit||
||unbreakable strength and heavy blow|| idk if I'm tweaking or what lol
||sly shop i think||
It might be a coincidence that you just dont do that
||bottom right crossroads||
||slys shop in dirtmouth||
||probably due to strength. staggers are based on #hits, not damage, so since you're doing 50% more damage per hit he probably won't stagger before the first pufferfish||
ah makes sense then lol.......I'm tweaking 🤣
This too though
this is what I thought could be happening as well I suppose
but the more you know ig 🤣
||what nail level do you have?||
imma call it quits and fight him another time
Top right
Good idea. Some people just keeo going headfirst for bosses they might not be ready for yet, leads to burnout
||coiled nail||
||yup he will never stagger before first pufferfish even if you combo him, assuming only nail hits||
Just explore the ||right side of crossroads||
ye thanks Ig that makes sense
i was like am I tweaking at 1am 🤣
1am 💀
I use hk help from 19:00-3:00 on average
right 🤣 .......I would love to sleep but I am not falling asleep 🤣
24 hour clock!
being a cs student fed up my sleep and now well......idk what I am.
Yes i get confused with 12am and 12pm
12am is midnight and 12pm is lunch time basically
12pm is noon.
seems like everyone here needs sleep
No I need hollow knight lmao
I need sleep but im not going to get sleep
Its 7:30 pm my time
bro
After i sleep i read every message i missed in order
||ok no the problem with soul sanctum isnt the boss its the DAMN ENEMIES BY THE TIME I GET TO SOUL MASTER IM AT 3 MASKS||
||yup
that's sanctum for ya
can i see your inventory||
||run past the enemies||
Ignore them
||cant, they tp in front of me like a door to door salesman||
||lemme look for a ss on my computer im on nintendo||
Lmao, have you tried ||health charms|| if health is a problem to you?
||run faster and dash when you see them||
||leg eater cannot be found||
I would know a good help, but idk if its an uncspoiler
at this point idgaf, send it
Well ||you wont want sprintmaster to beat soul master. ||actually thats not bad
||maybe its dumb, but there is the shortcut to the bench. It helped me a lot||
I think he has that
||what shortcut||
||the normal route with the elevator?||
||breakable wall at the start of soul sanctum||
||send ss||
||thats def huge for me||
screenshot
I would take like 10 minutes to get there
Sry, im not in the game rn
|| If ur at the very very start of the first room go left. ||
ill js use ||dashmaster, stalwart, and thorns to run past, send me a picture of it in dms||
|| Then there is an elevator. About midway on the left is an breakable wall. || ik my description sucks, please anyone make abetter one
the path to ||soul master is genuinely harder than the mantis lords||
Yeah
Ill get there in 3 minutes
is ||soul master required to beat the game||
It helps a ton
Left from here.
ok
I only took 7 minutes
Noice
can i go straight to ||soul master|| from that point without running into the ||soul twisters||
No
This is more lategame, but ||i recently discovered an old save file in which, for some reason, i have rescued every grub, but not collected a single revard. What does grubfather give that is important? I dont wanna collect for some reason. ||
its just you respawn closer to ||soul master||
ok ty
||you can only get 109% now||
bro you spoilered the wrong part
ik, luckily its not my main save
||you lose lots of geo 1 mask 1 nail upgrade and 2 charms||
Oh i forgor about the ||pale ore || he gives, thx
I refuse to believe that about 73,500 people are currently online
Where can i see that?
Holy, how are it so many?
Its like 10,000
10.000 what?
People online the other 60,000 are 🌙 and 🛑
Ah makes sense thx
But still 10,000 people online and i only see 50 people
I use 10,000
Is it different in different locations?
10.000 is 10
Yes probably
Oh ok makes sense then
eat ancir ge
What?????
What's ||god seeker mode||?
||it starts you in godhome with max everything but you cant leave godhome||
||its when u beat p5 and its like game mode where u spawn in godhome with all abiltys||
Do u have that?
I've just unlocked it after beating ||p3||
Yes thats when you unlock it
Can I use it in the menu?
Yes
It's a game||mode||
this needs tags 
||omg i thought i would get it after p5||
Nope
Cool, then ill get it maybe
Tbh i think its pretty useless
Its useful if you accidentally delete your savefile
Does it have ||every single boss unlocked||?
almost
there's exactly one missing
Better not be my dear ||radiance|| nor my lovely ||nkg||
||it's missing 2||
this charm loadout good for ||gpz 4||?
||pure vessel and radianc?||
Yes but ||replace quick focus with shaman stone||
Yes
Dang
||i think it has every boss that you've defeated in all previous playthroughs.||
||build for NKG? I have all charms and all notches||
||strength quick slash nailmasters glory quick focus or shaman stone and grubsong or steady body.||
how much ||damage does gpz 4 do?||
2
No thats ||gpz 6||
oh yeh your right
so isn't ||fury better use for that dude who asked about the charm build?||
After beating ||radiant nkg|| and struggling to beat ||attuned failed champion|| and being stuck at ||p4 ||because of it, now I know what I'm talking about lmao
No
||fury is good for the final one because he does 8 dmg which puts you on 1 hp||
What's ||the glowing button above the door of hog cuz I've been so confused with it, cuz in one save I have ascended hog and it's lit up, and in the other I have radiant hog and it's not lit up||
||for every other level it isnt good||
||since fury is really good on the last one the last one is actually easier than the one before||
||markoth into gpz in p5???????|| wot?????
Ik its just pure torture
||Zote isnt a life ender but he is a run ender||
guess I need to ||radiant gpz and markoth to have any chance at beating p5||
||radiant markoth is too much||
Where can I enter ||god seeker gamemode in the menu||?
you have to unlock it
beat ||p3||
When starting a new game
Already done
Thx
Replying to someone from 2 days ago
Yea lmao
||Failed champ is bloody hell, how do you beat in a pantheon or even whatsoever!!!||
||the raining balls are really annoying||
just keep close to him and learn how to do high dps. when I have to fight him he only gets off like 3 attacks
||Radiant ||must be funny haha
No actually I've just found my own technique like just after complaining
I've been struggling to him for ages while the only thing I had to do was complaining
How?
How to dodge ||primal aspids||
do ||ascended bosses have higher hp||?
Basically I'm very bad at rushing bosses I always make mistakes but somehow that one boss always baits me, so I go for it and get hit because I'm just bad at doing this, while I've just tried for the first time to play very patiently and wait for it to come for me and I've legit first tried it with just a few hits
Going for ascended now :D
You dont
damage tank
Fact
Neither you just get hit and slowly die
equip ||strength with your pure nail||
||spam vengeful spirit||
Any tips in the ||collector|| boss fight?
And in some situations (spoiler alert: ||co||) you can use environment such as walls and platforms to as nebenio said spam ||vengeful spirit or abyss shriek||
||Kill the enemies he throws right after the glass breaks, and stay very near him so that when he'll jump he won't touch you||
||if you cant 1 shot the enemies upgrade your nail||
How is that a snail?
It's not mb
so is this true?
I think its 60%
damn
||They deal twice damages, and have more hps yea||
Np
hey yall im at the ||teacher's archives i beat the jelly boss but there's a symbol of one of the 3 masks there, last one i got i did a fight and it disappeared so im wondering if im missing something i cant find anything past the jelly boss nor can i find the guy who helped me fight the jelly||
||go down then cdash of the wall||
