[simple island]

[timid lagoon]

[simple island]

It’s definitely a really hard fight
And maybe something you need to come back with after a good knight of sleep, or with new gear

If you are tilted, you can be sure that you ain’t winning the fight

[timid lagoon]

i started playing today abt 2 hpurs agpo

YES IT WORKED

finally

[tight fox]

||when he jumps away wait then jump towards him and hit him. When he jumps onto you dash beside him and hit him when you stagger him dreamnail him twice then hit him twice to remove his stagger. After that hit him when he jumps to the middle and attacks rapidly on both sides use your 2 shade souls you got earlier from dreamnailing him when he was staggered then hit as many of the falling balls at him as you can repeat these steps 3 times to finish the fight||

[timid lagoon]

i love ||weaversong||

[flint dome]

@timid lagoon real

[noble lodge]

How do I get to this area? Its blocked off

[tight fox]

So
Try to get there from ||basin or waterways (definitely basin)||

[simple island]

[tight fox]

[simple island]

It’s the very bottom of the room, it’s a one way breakable wall

[timid lagoon]

[simple island]

Stop pinging me please

It’s a one way wall, at the bottom of a room

To get past it

Get to the other side

[verbal token]

Tbh its more cause i was just too aggressive, after more calm approach i was able to get through the last part 3 times in a row and done

[timid lagoon]

can u set up ||dream gates in buzzsaw parkour||?

[tight fox]

||you cant put dreamgate in dream||

[proper trellis]

||wait if the dreamnail teleport uses essence doesnt that softlock me out of content? i havent reached any point that indicates its infinite ive just been getting it for trees and bosses, so wouldnt i need to worry about spending too much so i dont get softlocked and no longer get milestone rewards from that npc? ||

[bright sorrel]

no

theres features that prevent that

and there is no way youd spend anywhere near that amount

[final badge]

||For example There's a chance that an enemy can give ya 1 essence ||

[dusty moat]

||Oh so that's why my essence counter randomly pops up||

[novel locust]

||i just folded soul master, then i ran into dung defender||

||now i am struggling with his rage mode where i cant hit him basically||

[dusty moat]

||How was Soul Master through 1/10, fun battle wise||

[novel locust]

2

[dusty moat]

[novel locust]

very boring and incredibly easy boss

[dusty moat]

[novel locust]

the rating i gave is the number of attempts it took me to beat him'

[final badge]

||when he's under the are a try to use soul master's power on him ||

[dusty moat]

Me when I forget difficulty scaling exists

[novel locust]

OHHH

||i was just spamming spirit 😭||

[dusty moat]

[final badge]

[dusty moat]

I have no idea how to get past this

[tight fox]

I'd give him a 6

[dusty moat]

[tight fox]

From the other way

[dusty moat]

Kewl

[tight fox]

Where are you in the game?

[dusty moat]

||I just destroyed two dreamers yesterday||

Here's my stuff too

[tight fox]

I think i know the one you havent beat

[dusty moat]

||Lurien, yeah||

[tight fox]

[dusty moat]

Why?

||Don't tell me I have to go to Soul Sanctum.||

Nebenio.

[novel locust]

||easy dung defender, took 3 attempts and a very fun boss||

||should i head to sly and purchase the lumafly lantern to go to deepnest or do i go somewhere else?||

[dusty moat]

3

[novel locust]

yes

[dusty moat]

Man pull up-
||Joke||

[novel locust]

||is dung defender supposed to be beaten in less?||

[dusty moat]

Not for me

[tight fox]

How many attempts did you take

[dusty moat]

Uh-

1?

[tight fox]

[tight fox]

1

[dusty moat]

Y-Yeesss?

Hm?

[novel locust]

2 bosses within 1 hour has to be good for a new player

[dusty moat]

Yep

[scenic egret]

This is a common question we see from beginners here. It is understandable that you are curious about how your accomplishments may compare to others'. However, others cannot fairly label what you've done as "good" or "bad." How you feel about it is easily the most important factor. If you feel good about it, then you did good! If you are unhappy or disappointed, then practice some more to improve!
Gradual improvement is fundamental to gaming, and is a natural place to find much of your satisfaction from playing CelesteHollow Knight. Focusing on how much you have improved and how much further you can go is a healthy and uplifting way to evaluate your work.

[tight fox]

Spoiler

[scenic egret]

???

[tight fox]

The background looks like a spoiler

[bright sorrel]

i dont think u can tag gifs, so it should just be deleted

maybe if u pasted the link and put tags on that

[uncut lichen]

I don't think anyone would understand anything from the background, and half of hollow knight has this background design

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||

[bright sorrel]

doesnt matter

[scenic egret]

is it in the exceptions? no

[tight fox]

You can screenshot the gif

[bright sorrel]

||it lights up when you have discovered a new boss and havent went to the statue||

[bright sorrel]

thats not relevant

[uncut lichen]

Oh, but how would that be a spoiler then

[bright sorrel]

because its a video of a location in the game

[uncut lichen]

Ohh so it's not always lightened up?

[tight fox]

||ancient basin tram||

[dusty moat]

||Am I ready for the Trial of the Warrior?||

[dusty moat]

Huh-

[tight fox]

Yes 100%

[novel locust]

ive restarted this channel

[dusty moat]

||I'm on Trial of the conqueror now||

[novel locust]

||hornet dunk saves all||

[tight fox]

So thats why theres no silksong yet

[dusty moat]

[novel locust]

||hornet spent all the silksong money on the nba||

wait

whats /purge

oh

dyno is lying to me >:(

[tight fox]

DONT PURGE ME 😭

[novel locust]

/roll

[dusty moat]

||Okay Primal Aspids can see the future in Colo 2||

[tight fox]

They can always do that

[dusty moat]

Cap

[violet ocean]

||funny how the most hated enemy is just, a basic tri-shot ranged mob||

[novel locust]

||yeah ive learned what aspids are, my friend showed me yesterday||

[sharp torrent]

congrats, and glad you had fun!

[novel locust]

||they're kinda like the obles||

||but less annoying tbh||

[dusty moat]

||I love Primal Aspids, but not not in Colo 2...||

[novel locust]

||i dont understand it, i hate the obles WAY more||

[sharp torrent]

||the future in question: *one shade soul flying towards them at mach 3||

[violet ocean]

||obbles are easy wdym||

[dusty moat]

||Idk if he met the Primal ones yet||

[violet ocean]

||they only shoot diagonally so just... walk in a direction or stay directly above/below them||

[novel locust]

||i killed one, landed into the path of another's shot, got hit by ANOTHEr, fell into a moss creep, knocked into acid||

[violet ocean]

okay that is absolutely a skill issue

[dusty moat]

Skill issue-

Joke

[tight fox]

||theres primal oblobbles ||

[dusty moat]

...

[violet ocean]

||well there are two different upgraded versions of obbles||

[dusty moat]

Cap..?

[novel locust]

||NOOOOOO||

[violet ocean]

||one of them isn't too bad
the other you will grow to hate even more than normal obbles||

[sharp torrent]

is that even possible? ||I don't think there's a room that contains both obbles and acid||

[novel locust]

there is

[dusty moat]

||Also what charms should I use for Colo 2||

[sharp torrent]

I can only think of 2 rooms with ||obbles||, both of which have no ||acid||

[violet ocean]

looks good

[dusty moat]

Okay

[tight fox]

||crystaloblobbles with no floor ||

[novel locust]

||theres the one with platforms and two or three obbles||

[violet ocean]

ever seen this mod?

[sharp torrent]

if it's the one I'm thinking about, that has no ||acid|| in it

[dusty moat]

No but I wanna!

[tight fox]

Thats not in the normal version?

[violet ocean]

||i can only think of 2 rooms with obbles as well
tall room and long room||

[novel locust]

||no, you're thinking about the tall one||

[violet ocean]

surprisingly not

[sharp torrent]

the other one doesn't either

[novel locust]

wait hollon am i hallucinatin

[sharp torrent]

||it is between two rooms that have acid, which would cause understandable confusion||

[novel locust]

||bc i also used to think shrumal warriors did 2 masks with their roll||

[tight fox]

Have i typed 1000 messages yet?

[timid lagoon]

guys i have offically gotten ||void heart|| in 15 hours

i have spedrun this crap

not the best but still fast

didnt time it tho

but ingame timer is 15 hours

[sour mauve]

Am I good to go fight ||watcher knights|| or should I use different charms

[burnt meteor]

i'd say yes but change out ||baldur shell|| for ||thorns of agony as you will not really have time to heal||

basically just go for an offensive build||||

[blissful path]

n bounce on those thangs

[burnt meteor]

||watcher knights whole thing is that they keep you moving||

[sour mauve]

So if I won't have time to heal shouldn't I swap to like ||mark of pride, fury of the fallen, stalwart shell||?

My whole build was for ||healing cause I take damage a lot

[remote otter]

So just made it to ||soul master|| and am having trouble with the fight any advice

[sour mauve]

When I did that, the most effective thing for me was swoop in and do one or two hits and back away, heal if neaded

[remote otter]

It's his slam attack that's getting me

[nimble saffron]

eyyyyyyy guys beat ||troupe master grimm|| 🥳

[burnt meteor]

||for the slam, you just full jump next to him. unless its stage two slam, then short hop and dash||

[remote otter]

Thank you

What charms are ideal for the fight

[rough spruce]

need help, I'm missing a|| single notch charm||. I am trying to find it.

There things that I was wondering.

If I finished the ||trial of warrior once, is there any more reward if I redo it?||

[burnt meteor]

sadly, no

[burnt meteor]

go for a spell build like ||spell twister and soul eater||

[rough spruce]

I see. I was looking up online it says there's a notch there. But that's good. Now I don't have to redo that

[burnt meteor]

yw tho you do still gain geo from it

[remote otter]

Ouu good idea

[scenic egret]

||gotta tag charm notch||

[rough spruce]

wdym, everyone knows that from the start.

[scenic egret]

well its not in the exceptions, and also the rules have gone through a lot of revisions because of people arguing

[bright sorrel]

where something is in progression isnt relevant to needing spoilers

[scenic egret]

so its best to just tag it to prevent the mods from changing the rules again because people complained that its at the start/in the trailer/2 minutes in/hinted at in the start etc.

[burnt meteor]

||the best standard is to add tags to anything outside of starting dirtmouth||

[rough spruce]

alright

[bright sorrel]

that needs spoilers too

[bright sorrel]

[scenic egret]

it got changed a few months ago

[bright sorrel]

the 'best standard' is to read the rules and understand them

[scenic egret]

or tag everything

[inland moon]

Needs tags

[novel locust]

||crystal peak is interesting||

||the platforming is fun, the enemies...not so much||

[sour mauve]

So I just ||woke the last of the dreamers, is there any lore stuff to do (like directed at kingdoms edge) to do before whatever is in the black egg temple?||

[burnt meteor]

||not really, but even if there is, you can still access it after black egg temple||

[sour mauve]

So ||black egg temple (post dreamers) isnt some world altering event? Ive had to many of those||

[burnt meteor]

||surprisingly, no.||

[remote otter]

||are we tagging everything now||

[burnt meteor]

||but i do agree that it feels like it would be||

[sour mauve]

Better safe than sorry

[burnt meteor]

yup

so long as it is in any way related to Hollow Knight, it should be tagged

[sour mauve]

||there is a jump button||

[burnt meteor]

good example

[remote otter]

WAIT WHAT

[burnt meteor]

||the jump button lets you jump||

[sour mauve]

Dont lie to ||me||

[remote otter]

||does the game change depending on saving or leaving zone or bretta||

[burnt meteor]

||not as far as i know.||

[remote otter]

||good then zote can stay where he is||

[modest elm]

If ||it’s your first playthrough - save zote.||

||You can’t not save Bretta, you can only just do it later than usual||

[burnt meteor]

||I'm fairly sure the only place you can kill zote is during the first abondoned crossrads encounter||

[remote otter]

||it's like my 5th run||

[misty charm]

||can someone explain to me how to hit Soul tyrant? It's so hard because he's so fast||

[burnt meteor]

please tag your comment

[sour mauve]

You gotta spoil your text

[burnt meteor]

surround it on either side with ||

[misty charm]

mb

[faint crescent]

With a lot of practice, ||Soul Tyrant|| is actually not that difficult

[misty charm]

i tried to practice, i just don't know when ur supposed to attack

[burnt meteor]

make use of ||when he glides across the botom for a pogo hit and when doing the six orb air walk you can jump up between them for hits||

[dusty moat]

||I finally beat Sentinel Hornet! ||

[misty charm]

w

[dusty moat]

And I didn't use ||D dive||

[faint crescent]

||while he uses 6 orbs, you can use 1-2 Vengeful Spirit/Shade Soul hits||

[misty charm]

ill try, also is ||Nkg on Ascended supposed to be super hard?||

[faint crescent]

||Just jump over the orbs, stand in a safe position on the opposite side and attack||

[misty charm]

bet

[burnt meteor]

yes ||Nkg is absurd on ascended||

[faint crescent]

Not really I think

[misty charm]

bro he one shotted me 😭

[faint crescent]

I find ||Ascended Markoth|| more annoying than him

[burnt meteor]

agreed

[misty charm]

oh yeah he's terrible

[faint crescent]

||it was the hardest boss i've ever faced, even harder than Radiant NKG and Pure Vessel||

[burnt meteor]

i've been struggling with ||Radiant Markoth for a solid 4 hours||

[faint crescent]

really, mine is 5+, not remember but that's it

[rough spruce]

What build is used against ||sly||

[faint crescent]

||mix spell and Nail, don't use Quick Slash because it doesn't work on Sly||

[rough spruce]

yeah I barely hit it when it attacks so much

what do you mean by|| nail||

[faint crescent]

||against Sly, you can only attack 1-2 times before he attacks again. So don't be too aggressive||

[rough spruce]

What is one ||of his window to attack?||

[dusty moat]

||Mix a spell and nail build||

Wrong reply

[faint crescent]

||Nail for Soul and Spell as soon as you get the chance (keep a safe distance from him)||

[rough spruce]

what I used

thoughs

[inland moon]

What the hell

how skilled are you

[faint crescent]

noooooooooo

[rough spruce]

wdym

[inland moon]

And what boss

[faint crescent]

What are your ideas for this build?

[rough spruce]

||Sly||

[misty charm]

random question, but is ||thk supposed to be easy||

[rough spruce]

Spam bullshit

[inland moon]

||Flukes|| are awful without the right boss and insane timing and accuracy

[rough spruce]

but I can't get|| soul.||

[inland moon]

Awful boss for ||flukes||

[barren cliff]

Sort of, yes

[rough spruce]

||also, I was a bit low hp like maybe 4 before reaching Sly. ||

[faint crescent]

||that's your problem, you're focusing too much on Soul and Spell and forgetting about safety when attacking with Nail||

[rough spruce]

||is long nail used against Sly||

[rough spruce]

I|| fought Sly first time, so I'm not sure how to approach||

[misty charm]

rq before I leave (sorry for more random questions) ||what bosses do I need to kill to get enough essence for white palace?||

[faint crescent]

||Mark of Pride or Longnail is a safe choice, also use Unbreakable Strength because you will need to attack with Nail a lot||

[faint crescent]

||try this one: Unbreakable Strength; Sprintmaster; Mark of Pride; Shaman Stone; Steady Body||

i think it's good enough

[flat sleet]

Hey yall ||started up an old HK save, nothin crazy old just like a year, and my one friend whos also playing noticed i have 4 masks of HP, when you should start with 5, im going crazy trying to figure wtf is going on, its a vanilla game, it happens with or without charms, i dont have any HP ups yet and im just rly rly confused||

[inland moon]

How old is the save

[dusty moat]

'A year'

[flat sleet]

regardless even if its older, its 100% from after all the dlc was out

[inland moon]

Try asking #1057825333841240104

[rough spruce]

Will do, Thank you.

[flat sleet]

??

[inland moon]

and clarify it isn't mods

[flat sleet]

oh okay

i was gonna say, like i said its a complete vanilla save, no mods at all

[inland moon]

modding help is good with technicall stuff

[flat sleet]

yeye

[rough spruce]

Ok nice, full hp.

I still haven't try the build you sent. but I went with this this time.

kek

[faint crescent]

in any build, just dodge accurately

[inland moon]

use ||strength, shaman, qslash, and twister||

[dusty moat]

||I jumped into a dish full of black liquid and got something called 'Shade Cloak'||

[inland moon]

gg

[dusty moat]

What?

[rough spruce]

Nice

[inland moon]

I'm just saying gg

[dusty moat]

[inland moon]

[dusty moat]

Yay

[inland moon]

||Does the last pantheon, is it still safe to die.||

[dusty moat]

Gg?

[inland moon]

yes

[rough spruce]

as long I'm in a ||dream I'm safe right.||

[rough spruce]

[inland moon]

[faint crescent]

||in the whole Godhome you are immortal||

[dusty moat]

||I think it means Good Game, so I thought I was gonna fight a boss ||

[inland moon]

[dusty moat]

Do you think it means Good Going?

[rough spruce]

I see I see

[inland moon]

[dusty moat]

Then what do you think it is?

[inland moon]

And I'm being discord brainrot

[dusty moat]

[inland moon]

I say it way too much

[dusty moat]

Holy shite my camera hates me

I feel like I have to do something...

[faint crescent]

use your ||Howling Wraiths|| and chill

[inland moon]

What does the background remind you of

[dusty moat]

||Who said I had That spell yet? ||

[faint crescent]

I think I turned him off

[dusty moat]

Idk man, rocks?
Joke

[inland moon]

If it doesn't remind you of anything specific, then maybe come back later

[dusty moat]

[dusty moat]

Ik what it wants me to do, I just can't do it

[inland moon]

Why not

[dusty moat]

Kinda crazy

[lean marten]

Howdy! I'm doing my second playthrough (I restarted and ||let zote die so I don't have to kill him in pantheon lol||). I wanna get ||The other version of Brumm to stay in dirtmouth and get the banishment achievement but that means I won't be able to fight NKG, will he still appear in the Pantheon/Will I still be able to enter the pantheon he's in? or do I have to kill him||

[inland moon]

He'll still be in ||p5||

[lean marten]

okk ty!

[night jungle]

[rough spruce]

I'm 1% away of finishing the game. Now I'm just stuck with ||Pure vessel||

his moveset was adaptable. But i keep getting hit with the ||Move that pops on the ground, like grimm ||

[inland moon]

You can ||DDark|| to get some iframes for the swords

[vivid fog]

tag ||radiance|| next time. i'll delete your message for now

[rough spruce]

I didn't notice that sorry.

[vivid fog]

it's all good

[rough spruce]

I see I see

[lean marten]

So uh ||I banished the grimm troupe before buying the unbreakable charms, is there a way to get them or do I just gotta restart?||

[inland moon]

nope

If ou want them you need to either use mods, save editing, or restart

[lean marten]

rip ok

ty

[obsidian sandal]

Ok it depends on the route

[unique gorge]

i'll send you a map rq

[obsidian sandal]

I would suggest going to get desolate dive first

For dive?

[unique gorge]

[obsidian sandal]

No, not for dive but a lamp will be needed for later areas

[unique gorge]

i dont know the route sadly

ok

[obsidian sandal]

I do have to leave fir school tho so tell me later hoe it went

[unique gorge]

[obsidian sandal]

That's not really useful for early game in my opinion but great!

[unique gorge]

alright

[barren cliff]

please spoiler tag all item/place names and images

[unique gorge]

i gotta to

[barren cliff]

And please don't just tell people to look up stuff on YT, they'll be spoiled unnecessarily

[obsidian sandal]

[slate raven]

where do i go? i got the ||dash||

[inland moon]

Explore more in ||wastes||

[nimble saffron]

|| ha I've officially saved all the grubs ||hehe

[dusty moat]

Nice

||I'm like 1-2 over halfway||

[nimble saffron]

eyyyyy

noice

[dusty moat]

[supple compass]

can i still do ||different endings for the game if i beat THK boss or do i have to do white palace first||

[inland moon]

It'll put you back to right before you fought it

Go ahead

[supple compass]

bet

[faint crescent]

||Are these achievements without descriptions related to different endings? How do I get them?||

[simple island]

||3 of those are ending|| related
The other two are related to the ||Grimm and nail smith quests, basically, those quests can end in two different ways, and getting each gives an achiev||

[faint crescent]

silly question: can i do it all in 1 run

[simple island]

Did you get the ||sealed sibling ending ?||
If so get back to ||black egg for dream no more||
||Embrace the void is pantheon related, passing of the age is weird and honestly an "ending" you use a wiki for||
The other two are quest lines, so just redo those quests on ||an other file (probably steel soul) and try to do something else||

[faint crescent]

okay thanks guys, I'll definitely have to use ||Wiki and Youtube||

[simple island]

Try not to

Ask more questions here for more precise stuff

The issue is that a wiki is gonna blow the whole thing open and reveal everything

We can give more subtle hints, but just, ask for one thing, like one achiev

[dusty moat]

[simple island]

Then the other…

[faint crescent]

... hmm.... so i will do it one by one, it will take a long time

[simple island]

You can’t do progress through ||pantheons and the Grimm quest at the same time lo||l
You need to do all one by one anyways

[faint crescent]

yea I get it

Lots of saves to create here

[simple island]

How much of the game have you done already ?

[dusty moat]

||How do you get the Sealed Siblings ending btw?||

[simple island]

Nah, ||all endings can be gotten on one save||

[faint crescent]

i haven't even checked yet, i'm in ||godhome and stuck in p5||

but i definitely tried to take all i could

[simple island]

Just do ||dream no more but don’t dreamnail thk to get to the radi fight ||

[dusty moat]

Okay thx!

[simple island]

Yeah ||p5|| is very hard
Did you get 112% ?

[faint crescent]

i haven't finished speedrun yet

[simple island]

You can get to ||p5 with like 80%||
Maybe they are still missing stuff left and right

[faint crescent]

Idk lol

[simple island]

Speedrun is usually its own thing yeah, but you can turn a speedrun file into something else

[faint crescent]

||maybe will check it later, i need to finish p5 first||

[faint crescent]

I failed once because I died too much, I need time to recover before starting a new run

[supple compass]

|| i just beat THK and when i loaded my save he is still here is that normal also what do i do now i wanna fight grim boss and the radient or whatever its called ||

[dusty moat]

Normal iirc

[faint crescent]

yes it is normal

this game kills so much time but i cant stop playing it, whyyyyyyyy|| ||

122h for now

I actually spent over 60 hours on ||Godhome||

[supple compass]

|| i stopped playing a year ago but i think i started grimm questline ||

alr thx

[merry copper]

whats here?

||i did
but didnt understand hint||

[dusty moat]

||What's the background remind you of?||

[merry copper]

every

hmm ok

[merry copper]

cant remember

[dusty moat]

[merry copper]

now i see

[dusty moat]

Lol

[merry copper]

i see it

[forest pewter]

Yeah your game basically kinda reset after you beat || hk || so it's normal

[merry copper]

lmao

[forest pewter]

Hey I gave an good explanation

[dusty moat]

Explore

[tawny sapphire]

😭

I already stated how to do this smh

Simple tip for ||Failed Champion, if he jumps towards you, he’ll do the slam attack or just jump if he jumps away he’ll do the shockwave attack or just simply jump||

[dusty moat]

||Where Crystal Peaks is||

[tawny sapphire]

Check ||Crossroads||

[tawny sapphire]

[dusty moat]

[tawny sapphire]

East

[dusty moat]

[tawny sapphire]

North east

[dusty moat]

Don't you dare

[tawny sapphire]

East of the main entrance ofc

[dusty moat]

Flip you

[tawny sapphire]

[forest pewter]

There's an unexplored region on the map go there

Right side

[dusty moat]

...

If you need this much help just go to YouTube.

[tawny sapphire]

It’s right of the entrance from ||crossroads?||

[forest pewter]

Sigh I'll send

[dusty moat]

The Help channel is for helping not telling you exactly where the shit is. My view at least

[tawny sapphire]

[bright sorrel]

ppl need help in different facets. if u dont want to help someone then dont

[forest pewter]

Here

I tried to make it as spoiler free as I coulf

[tawny sapphire]

Almost like there is a second entrance

[forest pewter]

There's two entrances to it I only marked one

[tawny sapphire]

Also that’s still right of the entrance Smh

[forest pewter]

[prime mural]

whats an tip to find new ||zones, yes i found crystal cave thing||

sorry

[forest pewter]

Go back the areas u couldn't before

[thick wing]

have you went to the zone where everything is|| green and full of more green?||

[prime mural]

idk where that is, i kinda wanna get ||wing jump thing and black dash, those are the only things i know||

[prime mural]

||greenpath?||

[forest pewter]

Get everything from || crystal peak || then I'll tell their location

[forest pewter]

Eh no

[thick wing]

no, what ||items/equipment|| do you have rn?

[prime mural]

||should i farm for 950 coins and then buy simple key for the right side of dirthpath?||

[forest pewter]

NOOO

[thick wing]

NAH

[forest pewter]

it's not worth it

[thick wing]

yes :3 (joke)

[forest pewter]

[prime mural]

||dash, crystal dash, wall jump and the spell.||

why not

[forest pewter]

Use the key in || city of tears || instead

[prime mural]

already did pretty sure

what is in that ||cave|| then

[forest pewter]

Then explore the area where u used it

[prime mural]

i forgor

[forest pewter]

Something good for noobs
But useless for a good player

[prime mural]

i got that massive skill issue so its kinda goof for me ig

[thick wing]

||uh head to the left of kings station without stopping or changing directions until you reach a room, that's the "zone" where u can get wing fly jump thing||

[prime mural]

thankksssssssss

really need it for where ||corniffer was in crystal peak thing||

[thick wing]

||the room is full of spikes and you have to drop down into it||

good luk

[prime mural]

where is it again?

[forest pewter]

It's like at the bottom of city

[prime mural]

i only knmow where ||kqueens station|| is\

[forest pewter]

Ur quite far from it accutaly

[forest pewter]

@prime mural go there

[thick wing]

[thick wing]

||Do you know the place with large red bug guards with swords and shields? They also drop 50 geo, the room is directly bottom left of them||

||Its in city of tears||

[proper trellis]

||i just destroyed herrah the beat and im still stuck in this deepnest maze place thing and idk where to go to leave||

[thick wing]

||Do you not have enough geo for the stag?||

[forest pewter]

|| kill the boss || fr fr

[proper trellis]

oh nvm dw i think i found it and yes

[forest pewter]

[thick wing]

||To kill the boss in soul sanctum you must “kill the boss”, this is valuable information and very truly ||||inspiring||

Oops wrong spoiler

[inland moon]

I mean you aren't providing anything useful

[forest pewter]

It felt like multiple choice between || crystal || or boss
I told them.To focus on the boss
I am. Still somewhat giving suggestion

[inland moon]

You're kinda just complaining

[thick wing]

I mean, there’s nothing wrong doing a little joking and goofing around while “helping”

But you still have to provide like necessary information on what your stuck with so we can help you

[forest pewter]

Well u obviously aren't gonna do anything without a decent amount of tries
Practice is the most important thing in this game

[forest pewter]

Accutaly that's against the rules
I can't do that

[thick wing]

Sad, too bad I completely forgot what the rules were

[inland moon]

[languid radish]

No tag pins3 found.

[inland moon]

dammit

[forest pewter]

Sad

[thick wing]

Lmfao I never read the rules on this channel because I never used it in my entire life, but I think I'll try and take the time to read it now

[forest pewter]

Same

[split linden]

riyal melon do u remember me?

[thick wing]

Well your going to need to rely on something more than that for literally every other boss in hallownest, what charms do you have?

[inland moon]

Why are you using the first 2 for fights

[proper trellis]

||should i try an aim for the 100% in the bottom right of my inventory before fighting the hollow knight? i wanna explore more anyway and kings edge and the queens gardens are completely undiscovered for me as of right now||

[inland moon]

Have you not backtracked at all?

[inland moon]

You can keep playing after

[thick wing]

||The game continues even when u beat it||

||You can get multiple endings on 1 save||

[proper trellis]

ah okay sounds good ty. ||this save is pretty stacked i went out of my way on multiple sessions to just backtrack and get every small thing i could find lol it'd suck if i couldn't finish what i started lol||

[inland moon]

||Compass is uselss for fights, and so is dash master||

[split linden]

bro what was ur challenge agin?

[proper trellis]

oh thats amazing

[inland moon]

Go backtrack

[thick wing]

What challenge?

Ohhh its in #hk-general

[inland moon]

You should work on that

And you can just take it off for a boss

It's not hard to find your way there, especially if you spent a whole day of attemps

Also ||dashmaster|| is pretty useless in a fight too

[barren cliff]

Which ||charms|| do you have available?

[thick wing]

||The dash recovery is already quick enough for most bossfights, dashmaster isnt really helpful||

[inland moon]

That's what I said

[forest pewter]

I remember your pf

I see
Have you learned how to do || pogo || ?

[barren cliff]

I'm not sure that's an essential skill for ||Soul Warrior||

Or ||Master||

Yeah it's not a named skill/ability, don't worry about it

[barren cliff]

@serene granite

[forest pewter]

It's basically ||slashing downwardd||| it's quite usefull

[flat patrol]

Is there a way to get the invincibility glitch into p5? (I only wanna use it to unlock abs rad in the hall of gods) Every time I go up to start P5 the invincibility goes away

[thick wing]

||Goddamn you have some charms which would actually help you beat soul master if you remove wayward and dash||

[forest pewter]

Just do it the intented way it's really not that bad

[barren cliff]

"It ain't that hard" is not going to help unfortunately

[flat patrol]

Eh, I’m lazy and don’t wanna have to throw about 5 hours at it just to unlock it in the hall of gods

When I could just unlock it, and then master it

[split linden]

im the guy that used to be stuck on ||watchers|| u were helping me

[barren cliff]

I would personally go with ||Shaman Stone or Quick Focus|| instead of ||Compass and Catcher||

[forest pewter]

Yeah I remember how far have u gotten?

[split linden]

||107%||

[barren cliff]

The ||spell|| you've acquired, ||Vengeful Spirit||, is extremely useful - are you in the habit of using it?

[forest pewter]

What's left

[inland moon]

Remove ||dashmaster and compass for shaman/qf||

[inland moon]

Why keep ||dashmaster||?

Not very useful at all

[thick wing]

||It coild be exchanged for longnail or just keep soulcatcher||

[barren cliff]

I just find the faster movement more fun 🥴 and if he's used to it already it'd take a few tries to readjust to not having it

[inland moon]

||catcher|| would be way better

[inland moon]

Fun isn't good here

It'd make the fight harder

[forest pewter]

U can get the best value with it if u use it durring the attack where he has || 4 orbs || surrounding him
It would do around 45 damage if u get all 3 hits

[barren cliff]

I'm really not sure it makes it harder at all

[thick wing]

||Catcher gives +2 soul per hit, its decent||

[inland moon]

It will, since you're just using something flat out inferior

[inland moon]

+3 iirc

It's very good for its cost

[thick wing]

Oop I forgot, I’m estupido

[barren cliff]

There's a difference between less optimal and difficulty-increasing

[inland moon]

true

Still a bad idea if they've been struggling this much

[barren cliff]

Ah alright, no rush then

[inland moon]

Oh you're there

Good job

[barren cliff]

[robust snow]

||can someone give me some tips for beating the hive knight||

[inland moon]

||Stag||

[robust snow]

Optional

[inland moon]

Not ||dashmaster||

That's awful for combat

also ffs

🔹 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.

[glossy gull]

AUGH

[robust snow]

||I don’t have voidheart||

[inland moon]

This is why we have text

[inland moon]

Send charms

[glossy gull]

Sorryyy :<

[inland moon]

It's fine

People make mistakes here a lot

[glossy gull]

|| Dashmaster rises the damage for the sharp shadow in my memory, is it not? Plus you can change it up to the Spell Twister ||

[inland moon]

it does, however

||Sharp shadow|| is awful compared to most other good options

[robust snow]

||my cute t setup is wayward compass,spore thing I forgot the name,fury of the fallen,grimmchild (level 2),and shaman stone||

[inland moon]

And ||4 notches|| for something that doesn't even equal the efficacy of ||shaman|| is pretty dumb

[inland moon]

No like

An image of everything

[glossy gull]

|| Eh, I personally radianted many bosses with sharp shadow. Dont like being overrealiant on the Shaman||

[robust snow]

||these are the charms I have||

[inland moon]

Your success rate doesn't show how good the charm is

I could very well say that it's good to use no charms because I did ||p5cl||

[glossy gull]

True...

[inland moon]

Use ||shaman, gsong, cather, and qf||

It's statistically a bad charm

There's a wall somewhere that I can't be bothered to find

[robust snow]

What are the last ones I don’t understand what they mean when shortened

[inland moon]

||quck focus||

Wdym

[tawny sapphire]

Find more of those ||dream warriors||

[inland moon]

Use the ||stag||

so hit the bell??

Where are you

||resting grounds?||

If so it's on the right side of the tall room with platforms

[robust snow]

I’ve run into a problem I don’t have enough charm notches to actually use these and know where I am

[inland moon]

Hold on did I miscount

oops

[inland moon]

Take off ||gsong||

[robust snow]

Ok

[inland moon]

If you want

[simple island]

Usually exploring new places will lead to more ||geo more easily
But 500 isn’t much ||

[autumn elk]

||fix your unbreakable charms im begging||

[autumn elk]

||sharp shadow would unironically be better if it didn't launch you further||

[inland moon]

How so

[autumn elk]

muscle memory and such

(yes its skill issue related)

[nimble saffron]

well || I went ahead and distroyed the grimm troupe. Don't know if that was a bad choice or not but oh well 😭 ||

[autumn elk]

did you ||get all the unbreakable charms||

[nimble saffron]

no that's the sad part

oh well what is done is done I supposed

ye ig

[simple island]

There isn’t really a morally better choice tbh

[nimble saffron]

I do have ||a unbreakable strength tho||

[simple island]

The main difference is that ||brumm|| can do whatever they want
As far as what the ||troupe is able to do, it’s probably that they will continue business as usual||

[nimble saffron]

but the other two no

[long kettle]

I think that ||whether it is a good choice or not fully depends on how you feel about the grimm troupe||

[nimble saffron]

I did not get it

[simple island]

Oh yeah, you are missing on those, but they don’t ||give %, and the hardest challenges make those charms not break on death anyway||

[long kettle]

||correction: the hardest challenges don't break them anyway*. Saying the hardest challenges make the charms not break is misleading imo||

[nimble saffron]

ah I see

well guys let's see how the rest progress I suppose

[long kettle]

Gl

[nimble saffron]

thanks Imma need it

[vagrant nymph]

||how do I dodge that one attack from oro and mato where the do the double slash||

[long kettle]

||Do you mean when they are both on the ground, one on either side and they attack you together?||

[long kettle]

Sorry, forgot something: ||What items do you have? If you could share your inventory then that would be great||

[final mortar]

Does ||Path of Pain offer any completion percent?||

[long kettle]

no

[thick wing]

||What r those options that u get before doing a pantheon?||

[final mortar]

They nerf them if selected

[long kettle]

||They are options that limit certain things, like you can reduce your nail damage, you health, your soul cap, or prevent charms from being used||

[vagrant nymph]

||no like the one where there's one of them and that one slashes twice, it also happens in the first phase||

[thick wing]

||Do I have to do them for full game completion?||

Oh that's just for the sweats lol

[long kettle]

ok, then for that|| I would say just stand not against the wall andlet them come to you, then when they start attacking, dash away and then optionally dash back in to hit them after they attack||

[vagrant nymph]

||I got all the items||

[long kettle]

||if you always dash back in you won't be driven back to the wall.||

[simple island]

…
Ok yeah fair, brain fart

[vagrant nymph]

K, thanks

[long kettle]

But you can also dodge it by ||shade cloaking through them if you want more options (it is good to have more options imo)||

[simple island]

||Oro and mato is really exploitable
Basically, if you are standing between them, both will attack
You probably want to use ddark on the spot if that happens
If you are not standing between them, one will come in, ||do an attack you dodge by retreating

[marsh trail]

||i finally beat p3!!!||

[simple island]

[thin plover]

congrats

[marsh trail]

Thanks

[long kettle]

What is your issue?

[marsh trail]

Is there some way we could help you?

Wdym maybe?

Why not?

[long kettle]

in general, just ||check out places that go off your map because you will eventually find something. I would like to see your inventory if possible though.||

[marsh trail]

I thought u wanted to beat the game?

[long kettle]

you can do things in different orders

most likely what they meant was not going back there yet.

[marsh trail]

Oh makes sense

Then just explore a bit, maybe you will find better equipment

Maybe try ||soul sanctum || again

Maybe go to the || marked locations || on ur || map ||

|| But the game keeps getting harder the more you progress, so maybe get some stuff first ||

[forest pewter]

Upgrades your ||health||

And then try

[marsh trail]

Search for || mask shards ||

[long kettle]

Alternatively, if you are ok with doing the boss still, you could ||switch out some of your charms to help with aspects you are struggling with. Specifically, if you are struggling to heal, then you might want to equip quick focus, and if you are struggling to hit the boss, maybe try longnail.||

[floral topaz]

What is better for ||Nkg, quickslash or mop||

[long kettle]

It depends. ||Quick slash lets you get more damage since it allows for an extra hit on some attacks, but mop helps you to get the normal number of hits more reliably, so it is up to you to decide what you find more useful.||

[floral topaz]

I would love to put both but that stupid ||Grimm child is taking my two slots||

[forest pewter]

|| soul eater ||

[thick wing]

How do i dodge || broken vessel’s infection head bop attack ||

[simple island]

Standing right next to him is actually pretty ||safe, and you can take the opportunity to get some pogos or spells in for more damage||

He also only does it a set number of times (iirc)

[sour yoke]

Luck and goodwill

[thick wing]

Ty

[marsh trail]

Ehats iirc

[shut sparrow]

It stands for "if I recall correctly"

[marsh trail]

Thx

[simple island]

-# what’s Ehats

That was the joke
also please try to not ping me while replying, if there is no specific need for a ping

[remote otter]

I FREAKING BEAT HIM

[elfin raven]

||are these charms good for oro and mato? I've been struggling on them so hard in p1 😭||

[simple island]

That is a pretty optimal ||charm build (though quite obviously mark of pride could be replaced by strength but well…)
You probably just don’t have enough practice with the boss, go fight them a few dozen times in the hall of gods||

The ||hog is really good to remove the long wait you normally need in order to fight any given pantheon|| boss

[elfin raven]

||I only have 6k geo and im too lazy to get enough to get my strength back lol||

[tight fox]

||you dont need to upgrade it to unbreakable because fragile charms don't break in dreams ||

[elfin raven]

omg i almost beat them ugh ||i got one of them by themselves im going insane i hate this boss||

[elfin raven]

||but that one girl already ate it so i cant get it back||

[tight fox]

||how did you lose unbreakable strength?||

[elfin raven]

||it was only fragile so i gave it to divine but i dont have enough money to pay her||

||and i hate the collosseum so much||

[thick wing]

honestly fair its not fun

[forest pewter]

Hot take but I think || mop || provides disadvantage in that fight

[thick wing]

what makes you say that

[elfin raven]

Well i also use it for the bosses prior too

[forest pewter]

U cant ||dash|| through them if you use || mop || u will be quite further away from them
But yeah I know some people || dash ||away from them so in tha case it's not so bad

[floral topaz]

||is unbreakable strenght, Sharp shadow, fury of the fallen and shape of unn good build for NKG? My record is around 30% of his health left||

[delicate falcon]

||I personally wouldn't use fury unless you're really trying for doing most of the fight hitless||

||nkg is kinda bad for fury because it's a boss which is quite easy to get hit but has a lot of healing opportunities||

[forest pewter]

For a first playthrough || fury || is pretty bad for him

[floral topaz]

||so what instead? I have all charms||

[simple island]

Use ||shaman stone, some health charms like heart, some healing charms like quick focus…||

[elfin raven]

||What i did was just use health charms at first to learn the attacks then eventually transitioned to using Shaman, MoP, strength, and some 2 notch charm that i forgot||

[marsh trail]

What happens if i ||banish the grimm troupe || before i ||buy back strength from divine || ? Does it just disappear?

[tight fox]

No ||she stays 🗿||

[marsh trail]

Huh?

[shell hornet]

any strat for ||perfect vessel||?

[marsh trail]

Just the ||little tent ||? Does she have some kind of special dialoge then?

[tight fox]

what attacks do you struggle with?

[shell hornet]

||Mainly the two attacks that make him teleport, the optimal reaction to it are both completely different
While his dash + triple slash requires you to jump and back off into pogo, his dash + sword throws require you to dash in and spam him ||

||Those reactions are completely different and the animations before those two attacks are nearly the same, and if you react too late his triple slash hits you easily as well as if you jump while he throws swords you'll probably get hit or make clumsy dodge||

[tight fox]

||when he does the dash attack i just jump then pogo then hit him again||

[shell hornet]

That's pretty much what I do as well

[zinc owl]

what the fuck do i do

[tight fox]

Go in from the other way

[zinc owl]

Brother

[forest pewter]

u already reached him?

[zinc owl]

what other way

[shell hornet]

A few hours ago before going back to school

I mean actually yesterday's evening

[forest pewter]

Wait so || sly || was not even a challenge for you ?

[shell hornet]

Not whatsoever, I died once a twice to him

[forest pewter]

It's over for you

[unique gorge]

should i fight ||mantis lords after beating soul master?||

[zinc owl]

Bro i had 2000 geo say sike

[forest pewter]

Wow that's pretty impressive

[shell hornet]

Thanks I guess

[forest pewter]

Eh sure
It doesn't really matter

[unique gorge]

alright

[shell hornet]

||Sly ||is pretty uncommon but you get used to it

[tight fox]

Yes the music is good

[forest pewter]

It took me at least 50 attempts to master him

[shell hornet]

Lmao

I can't say I've mastered him, but I've beaten him in ||p3 ||

[robust snow]

||can someone give me some advice for beating the hollow knight himself||

[shell hornet]

He must be hard to ||radiant||

[forest pewter]

Yeah he's pretty hard in that

[forest pewter]

|| d dark || spam

[shell hornet]

In contrary to ||nkg|| 🤡

[tight fox]

||Practice is the most important thing for pure vessel i took 50 attempts to beat him for the first time. 50 attempts after that i could beat him on most attempts||

[shell hornet]

Alright, I see myself getting better as I keep trying, I'll do the same, after all that's why I've bought this game

[tight fox]

230 hours is how

[unique gorge]

why is the ||door to the city of tears locked after I opened it?||

[tight fox]

||bug detecting mechanism||

[floral topaz]

You can use ||Jiji||

[zinc owl]

I dont have her unlocked, and i dont have the money to

[forest pewter]

Either just be a pro gamer from start or be a try hard like me
Otherwise hollow knight ain't for you tbh

[shell hornet]

You don't need to have 230 hours to beat bosses but some definitely need practice, as for my personal experience with the hardest yet the easiest boss I've ever had (maybe a spoiler for you: ||nkg||), it took me several attemps to kill it for the first time (like nearly 30) yet his ||ascended|| version took me even less and his ||radiant ||version was killed even faster

[floral topaz]

||so... You can find maybe sone free Simple key. The one of sly is not the only one. Search on google all Simple keys locations||

[shell hornet]

The hardest is always the start when you don't know what's coming honestly

[marsh trail]

||what are the hardest bosses in p4?||

[shell hornet]

||Pure vessel|| I'd say

[marsh trail]

Is he the last one?

[forest pewter]

The final one || watcher knights and white defender ||

[river lagoon]

Isnt ||nkg|| there?

[forest pewter]

Yes

[forest pewter]

Nope

[river lagoon]

||pure vessel||

[forest pewter]

[marsh trail]

[shell hornet]

[tight fox]

I disagree 100%

[river lagoon]

Who says i havent?

Hehe

[forest pewter]

Wait what?

|| pure vessel ||

[shell hornet]

They're hard for different reasons, ||nkg ||is very fair compaired to ||pure vessel||

[river lagoon]

||shaman stone|| carried me through like everything

[forest pewter]

Try || charmless pure vessel || and || charmless nkg ||
Then we can argue

[river lagoon]

Oh and yeah i beat ||radiance|| a bit ago

[shut sparrow]

||Nailarts are strong. Other than that try to get as much soul as possible when he's staggered. You can do that by dream nailing his armour. Don't overdo it though since he'll stand up if you do it for too long. This is especially helpful since he doesn't give you soul when hitting him. So use your soul with spells trying to get as much damage as possible.||

[shut sparrow]

you aren't even near that and won't get it anytime soon so dw about that. Also please spoiler tag your message

[tight fox]

[simple island]

Maybe your message was missed
You want tips for ||soul master ?||

[tight fox]

Show your inventory

[simple island]

You can explore ||fungal|| some more, there are other paths in it, one going to the right in particular

[shut sparrow]

||you can also just use the charms you already have which are likely even better than strength||

[simple island]

Oh they got to ||city|| already

Wait they also got to ||resting grounds…||

[simple island]

I think they need to explore more of ||peaks|| then ?

[shut sparrow]

you skipped ||false knight with the guide Are you using a speedrun guide?||

[tight fox]

||go explore crossroads ||

[simple island]

Also with ||1.8k geo, you can do a nice purchase at sly to help you explore dark places||

[low prairie]

||false night?? and thes guide im using is "How to Beat Hollow Knight in Under 5 Hours"||

[shut sparrow]

yes that's a speedrun guide. Don't use that

It's specifically for an achievement

[tight fox]

Whyyyyyyy

[low prairie]

guys im new istg idk what im doing

[shut sparrow]

I think that was their idea

[tight fox]

Dont use a guide and explore ||hallonest||

[shut sparrow]

If you're new then don't use guides imo

[simple island]

Well first off, make sure to have a good path to him, the ||walk back is long, but there are a lot of shortcuts to make it shorter, and make you fight less enemies while going towards them
Second off, in the fight, you want to stay close to him and grounded, so the balls he shoots go straight into the ground
Thirdly you cannot heal willy nilly during the fight, the two places to heal are, when he staggers, and when he flies across the screen with balls, after that, you can stay in the middle and heal twice ||
