[somber hill]

Wait what Nani

[vivid fog]

What, nani? Bro, nani means what. You're just saying what what/ref

[ancient flame]

I'm going back on ||grubberfly's elegy|| because It's with this charm that I got the most far in the fight.

[somber hill]

Nani = what

[vivid fog]

I know I was making spider verse reference 😭

[somber hill]

In Japanese

[supple sluice]

I got that reference

[somber hill]

Oh

[vivid fog]

Yes :D

[somber hill]

haven’t watched the latest one

[vivid fog]

Aw it's all good

[supple sluice]

Top 4 movie OAT

[somber hill]

Ok time to play bs which also has nani in it

Top 4 moats of the castle

[ancient flame]

I pretty sure I died juste before the final hit 😭

[supple sluice]

||On which fight||

[ancient flame]

||radiant NKG||

[supple sluice]

Mmm

Gl

One of my favorites

[ancient flame]

I'm gonna take a break my switch is at 1% of battery rn

[supple sluice]

||I think my build if I were to do it again would be SShadow, QSlash, DCrest, Ustrength, ShamanS, NMG||

||Honestly elegy instead of shamans is acceptable cuz spells that fight is dangerous ||

[ancient flame]

||Dcrest !? NMG !? bro this build is not normal for NKG||

||I can understand Sshadow but there is a better build for this fight||

[supple sluice]

||Dilligaf he’s gonna be running into that cloud a lot and nmg is kinda unnecessary but nail arts are the way i do that fight||

[shadow walrus]

why does ||white defender|| have his ||hunters journal entry|| seperate of ||dung defender|| but the ||failed champion|| doesnt?

[supple sluice]

||This is something we call in the smash bros community as DLC privilege||

[ancient flame]

This it what I call spaghetti codes

[bright vigil]

this ||grim ||needs a good gaming chair

[somber hill]

||spells aren’t dangerous if u use 2 at the flame pillars and then dump all your soul into his pufferfish at the end||

That’s how I did it

[gloomy hollow]

Agreed bc i never use em but ||elegy|| is so bad that anything is better than it

[ancient flame]

I finaly beat ||NKG on radiant||

[forest pewter]

Yeah but You can literally just not have ||elegdy and not lose 50% damage
Beside not in a single scenario
D dark will be less safe for dive in comprasion to pogo||

[gloomy hollow]

Gjjj lets goo

[forest pewter]

Congrats

[gloomy hollow]

now beat ||markoth||

[forest pewter]

[gloomy hollow]

[ancient flame]

[livid oar]

In ||forgotten crossroads||, near ||gruz mother|| there is this location with ||a door with an open slot, what goes into that slot||?

[civic pier]

Elo chat

[civic pier]

You want a spoiler or a hint?

[livid oar]

a hint

[civic pier]

Look around in ||deepnest||

You'll understand when you see what I mean there

[livid oar]

ok thanks

[ancient flame]

||I'm dying to Uumuu and hornet ||

||p3 sucks||

[gloomy hollow]

||uumuu|| sucks

do you have max upgrades on everything btw

[ancient flame]

Just don't have every ||vessel fragment||

But I know where is the last one

[gloomy hollow]

I recommend maxing everything before trying ||godhome||

as its postgame content

[ancient flame]

||it's the 3000 geo one||

[acoustic sky]

||can you miss the shadow dash? No need to tell where||

[gloomy hollow]

oh easy thats like ||3 colo 1 runs||

you can get that easily

[gloomy hollow]

no

[acoustic sky]

Thanks

[lofty raven]

thanks to whoever helped me

[alpine comet]

GGs

[lofty raven]

also is 24 h a good time

[trim bronze]

how do i find that

[alpine comet]

time doesnt matter
tho you finished it pretty fast

[remote jacinth]

Full completion time ofc

[dark viper]

Ive ||uumuu on radiant and hornet2 on only ascended||

Tips for ||radiant hornet2 ||pls

[dull vigil]

Am I doing something wrong at ||broken vessel||? Only attack that I get hit by is that ||screen wide fireball thing but I could never heal because of the ghost spawning in my face and die to chip damage||. What can I do to beat it?

[versed ferry]

!tag spoiler

[remote jacinth]

Its not as fast paced as it seems, use ||SS-SS|| to have an easier time getting rid of ||spikes + free damage||

[versed ferry]

wait whats the command

[alpine comet]

[versed ferry]

im hkhelpwashed

dang

[thick wing]

Tryna beat the game in under 5 hours how do I get ||Watchers without the lever skip I'm on most current patch||

[versed ferry]

i need to start hkhelping more

[dull vigil]

Sorry I edited it

[versed ferry]

The same way you normally do?

[thick wing]

I don't remember it I did it like so long ago

[versed ferry]

on ur first playthrough

oh just

Fight a guy

[thick wing]

And Google is not helping all I'm getting is the skips lol

[versed ferry]

And click a lever

[thick wing]

What guy

I fr don't remember this area of the game

[versed ferry]

just go mess around and theres an enemy

[alpine comet]

||big husk || the guy with the shield

[versed ferry]

And you kill it

[thick wing]

Oh shiz that guys annoying

Especially with ||nail 0....at least I have Shamen's||

[trim bronze]

why yall spoil the message

[dark viper]

||Whats SS-SS||

[alpine comet]

use ||desolate dive whenever the lil ghost dude spawn || you can easily spam a little and win

[remote jacinth]

||shaman stone shade soul||

[remote jacinth]

Get ||strength or shaman stone + ddark and ez win||

[dark viper]

Oh ok

[dark viper]

Read channel description

[thick wing]

Speedrun

Can't

[alpine comet]

you easily can

theres so much time

[remote jacinth]

Yes you can def do tgat

[alpine comet]

espacially || shaman and ddark||

[remote jacinth]

I did it and ended the run st like ||3h||

[trim bronze]

how do i find him?

[remote jacinth]

||low gear watchers btw||

[remote jacinth]

I think from the ||deepnest|| part directly to the left of it

[thick wing]

I need to do this in 5 hours I don't trust my movement enough to try and get those immediately

[trim bronze]

thx

[remote jacinth]

||asc godhome watchers||

[forest pewter]

You are underestimating 5 hours by ALOT

[alpine comet]

yeah

[forest pewter]

Its ridiculous amount of time

[thick wing]

Not really it took me 70 hours to beat the game once

[remote jacinth]

Yeah but here youre actively speedrunning

[alpine comet]

DO NOT COMPARE IT TO YOUR FIRST PLAYTHROUGH

[forest pewter]

Pointless argument
My First playthrough - 180 hours
Speedrun - less then 3.5 hours

[gloomy hollow]

the problem is that the majority of firstplaythrough time is exploring

A speedrun has zero exploring

[dark viper]

Facts

[thick wing]

God this one fight ALONE is gonna take me 5 hours

[remote jacinth]

Just make sure you know where youre going

[dark viper]

Im at 57h 110%

[gloomy hollow]

i beat my speedrun achievement in 2 hours (albeit i used ||blue lake shade skip||)

And it took me 30 hours to get the ending of the game

[thick wing]

That's the best part. I don't!

[remote jacinth]

Tbh tho I got lost in ||crystal|| durint my first speedrun but I still got the milestone, even if I lost like 30min

[alpine comet]

rather than attempting the fight over and over just go and get a few upgrades

[forest pewter]

Yeah that's much faster

[dark viper]

||Radiant lost kin|| doesnt take that long chill dude

[remote jacinth]

Idk why I did the speedrun in ||ss|| but I thought the ||jinn money|| would help lol

[alpine comet]

bruh that would be a huge timeloss cuz you cant do ||shade skips||

[thick wing]

What no? It's the ||one big sentry guy in City of Tears you need to beat for Watchers||

[versed ferry]

just dodge and then when he attacks, go above him and counter

[thick wing]

I killed the dude and|| the door ain't open bruh I have fr forgot this part of the game ong||

[gloomy hollow]

Use ||dream nail|| and ||vengeful spirit||

[gloomy hollow]

Theres. A lever

[thick wing]

I flicked it

[alpine comet]

door at the bottom

[thick wing]

Oh

[dull vigil]

You only need to kill them once, while they have to kill you every time. (At least that’s my logic considering I’m still ||on starting amount of mask shard and soul with nail 1||)

[alpine comet]

but that upgrades would carry over to next fights too

[dull vigil]

Yeah but the indomitable human bug spirits

[gloomy hollow]

undertale ahh thought process

[dull vigil]

When I saw ||dashmaster||:

[thick wing]

Fuck I've never ||fought watchers without shade dash||

[livid oar]

if i get confused as to what to do after a boss, should i google it, or is it ok to just explore the map and see what i find?

[gloomy hollow]

Explore the map

[dull vigil]

I just walk around everywhere since I find it fun but it’s not a crime to google stuff

[livid oar]

ok thanks

[thick wing]

I am missing ONE charm and im mad.

[gloomy hollow]

“Im missing one charm” he says, missing 2

Also whats the icon to the right of your ||notches||

[sacred dove]

Want me to tell you where it is?

[thick wing]

I already have|| Strength||. But it is with ||divine||

[gloomy hollow]

Oh alr

[lofty raven]

[gloomy hollow]

Hint: its very closely related to the charm to the left of it

[sacred dove]

[gloomy hollow]

[supple sluice]

No

[shadow walrus]

[thick wing]

Ok I know where it is but how do I even get to it. It seems like|| dive|| but that does not work.

[gloomy hollow]

You need one anyway

For all achievements

[shadow walrus]

[gloomy hollow]

No

[thick wing]

[gloomy hollow]

Somewhere there

[supple sluice]

||Down and to the right a little bit from the guardian bench||

[gloomy hollow]

It's the key thing you asked before

[gloomy hollow]

Also dude dont spoil people

For no reason

[upbeat yacht]

[gloomy hollow]

Atleast spoiler tag the message

[upbeat yacht]

Ok

[trim bronze]

[gloomy hollow]

Still havent done it

[gloomy hollow]

Whichever ones you use normally

[bright vigil]

[supple sluice]

||If there’s two left then I assume you have the map||

[gloomy hollow]

Use your ||grub map||

[bright vigil]

whats that

[ancient flame]

Maybe wasn't you sry

[sterile pawn]

Something you presumably picked up after ||collector that shows grubs on your map||

[bright vigil]

no idea nope

do i have it?

[sterile pawn]

It doesn't show in ||inventory||

You would have to go back to the ||3 grubs above collector to check if you have it or not||

[bright vigil]

whats ||collector||

[supple sluice]

||You’re missing three grubs not two and they’re the three grubs that tell you where all the other ones are||

Dang that would suck

[bright vigil]

so i am missing the 3 most important ones?

thats crazy

is their location known?

[supple sluice]

||It’s right side of city||

[main urchin]

Umm... Guys... What the hell just happened? ||I killed the Broken Vessel and then the main city was like this||, How do I fix this?

[bright vigil]

||all 3? which city?||

[main kelp]

you can't

[supple sluice]

||City of tears||

[main urchin]

Whaaaat, fr?

[bright vigil]

[supple sluice]

||Right of king’s station and up but you need a key that’s in Queen’s gardens||

[bright vigil]

[sullen orbit]

real

[supple sluice]

||You don’t have the key and you didn’t use it||

[gloomy hollow]

what do ya need help with

[bright vigil]

hmm alright

[sullen orbit]

How to easily || defeat the hk to get to her easily, best charms and tactics on crushing her health (how much does she have?) ||

[gloomy hollow]

For ||hk||, focus on getting to the third phase when he starts ||self harming|| and then its an easy time to heal

For the fight itself, theres 3 “main” phases

Last one is easy

First 2 just need practice

Any attacks you struggling with specifically?

[bright vigil]

||when the girl is pinning him down you can get at least 3 hits before you need to dream nail||

[supple sluice]

||You get auto full heal when you enter his mind though||

[gloomy hollow]

for ||soul|| tho

[supple sluice]

I mean sure

[craggy shoal]

is there a way to ||replay path of pain?||

[supple sluice]

No

[craggy shoal]

not even with mods?

[jade heart]

with mods yeah

not in base game tho

[craggy shoal]

what mod do i need?

[bright vigil]

||why would you want to do that 💀 ||

||its path of pain for sure||

[sick grotto]

||p3 complete! Thank you guys for the help - I honestly think that sly is one of my favourite bosses now||

||now just p4 and I’ll have 112 percented the game!!||

[craggy shoal]

[craggy shoal]

[turbid beacon]

[lean marten]

I'm tryna get the Speed Completion achievement (100% in under 20 hours), I got 104% but still don't have it or completionist. (I originally played on switch and beat the game but started my first PC save.) Does anyone know why? I have all charms ||(except for full kingsoul or void heart.)|| I don't have ||the hunters journal fully completed.||

Also some of my current game completion is DLC

[supple sluice]

||did you beat the game on that file||

[supple sluice]

Doesn’t matter

[lean marten]

||I've beaten the hollow knight but that's it||

[supple sluice]

||K so if you have 100 and you watch through the credits it should pull it up||

[lean marten]

||okk ty, ill try that||

[lean marten]

||IT WORKED!!!! Thank you so much!||

[warped kite]

||basically it happens when you use a charm that requires alot of charm notches that you don't have
You get to use that charm but in return you take double damage||

[exotic cedar]

[ancient flame]

It's recommended to not use it unless you are trying to do a no hit fight

[supple sluice]

Spoilers

||keep both of them on the same side of you though ||

[serene arch]

So close to the wall?

Well i hope i can win now then

[main kelp]

[supple sluice]

||Do you have aluba, crystal crawler, duranda, and durandoo ||

[supple mortar]

Yup

I got everything i encountered and im 112% done

I genuinly have no idea what i could have missed

[supple sluice]

I’d just check wiki

[supple mortar]

Wiki is kinda useless for ||hunters journal|| tbh

Are ||void idol and weathered mask required?||

[stoic cedar]

No

Use a save analyzer online to find out what u r missing

[supple sluice]

No

[supple sluice]

That’s how I got my last few

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[supple mortar]

The only two entries im missing are ||void idol|| and ||weathered mask||

[supple sluice]

Neither of those are required

[supple mortar]

Well ||hunters still not giving me the mark||😭

[versed heart]

Go through the wiki and make sure you have each entry, should find the last few easily

[jade sedge]

Commonly missed enemies by zenonira
||• Goam
• Mossy Vagabond
• Aluba
• Charged Lumafly
• Gorgeous Husk
• Crystal Crawler
• Garpede
• Pale Lurker
• Flukemunga
• Void Tendrils
• Durandoo
• Duranda
• Maggot||

Check if you have all these.

[torn vector]

||It’s probably Durandoo and duranda ||

[supple mortar]

Nah i got all of those

[supple mortar]

Yes I have like ||3000 essence rn||

I'm playing on switch and I got none of these bugs. Maybe YOUR switch has a problem, but not every switch.

oooooooooooh ok

[quasi stirrup]

||I am missing a singular journal entry before i have all, but i cannot figure out which one im missing, i got the more difficult ones to find like: goam, menderbug, charged lumafly, gorgeous husk, garpede, pale lurker and void tendrils. help would be greatly appreciated||

[junior stream]

||WHAT THE||

[quasi stirrup]

||ok so, after killing zote, the number of journal entries i need went up, so now im lost again 🔥 ||

Find him again and you’ll get the entries

[quasi stirrup]

||i left zote at the start of this save file so im not really able to find him||

[glad ravine]

HK bros I need your assistance

I'm at ||161 for my Hunter's Journal... but I haven't gotten Keen Hunter yet. When I went to the hunter guy, he just tells me to keep looking to finish it.|| Is it a bug?

I am currently practicing for ||Pantheon 4 so I still need to meet Pure Vessel but I assume it shouldn't be required for Keen Hunter||?

[tame root]

did you kill ||glorious husk?||

[glad ravine]

I remember getting ||a bunch of moneys from that creature so yes I have. I've checked my journal today and I did have glorious husk||

I also have ||the several corpses that you need to inspect to get them registered||

[stoic cedar]

the easiest way to find out what u r missing is to just use a save analyzer online

[glad ravine]

Oh shit that's a thing? I probably should do that

The ||journal|| is the only thing that I've been struggling for

It's my first gameplay so I'm very much still unaware for what I could have been missing (though I've checked the wiki many times, I'm probably just not noticing what I'm missing)

[proper frost]

this channel requires that u use discords spoiler tagging feature for all people, places, and things 🐈

||example 🐈 || --> ||turns into this 🐈||

[thick heath]

Ouh

||what's after monarch wings||

[wise nimbus]

Wdym?

[thick heath]

What to do

[wise nimbus]

Various locations are unlocked

u must've had some places u couldn't go

Try going there now.

[thick heath]

Hmm okay

[noble steppe]

as an example, there's a spot on the right side of ||ancient basin|| that ||monarch wings|| lets you access

[olive mirage]

*||right side of ancient basin||

[ornate grotto]

i feel like every time i take a hit against ||zote|| i couldnt have done anything to avoid the hit
and y do the ||little shitter things|| have so much immunity
how do i beat him

[olive mirage]

||Dive||

A lot

[noble steppe]

oh yes, my mistake

[sturdy finch]

i'm playing on ||steel soul|| and trying to get the speedrun 2 achievement if i can help it

i've got ~2.5 hours on the clock and ||all three dreamers are dead,|| but i'm nervous about ||thk||

for charms i have ||fragile strength, heart and an extra notch, maybe for spell twister?||

inventory: ||5 masks (7 with heart) and 0 soul vessels, no wings and the first nail upgrade||

what can i realistically and safely do to prepare in the time i have? i'd rather not savescum ||the thk fight||

[supple sluice]

||I’d say go for it now but if you really want something I’d just get shade cloak||

[sturdy finch]

||i'll practice a little bit on another save first||

oh and for ||spells|| ||shade soul ddark and normal shriek||

[neat karma]

Please tag ||spells||

[sturdy finch]

update: ||yeah nope||

[supple sluice]

For my own future reference is a spoiler anything that you don’t know when you start the game so ||king’s pass || is a spoiler but Hollow Knight isn’t cuz you know that before you buy the game

?

[sturdy finch]

i assume watching the trailers would tell you that the game has ||spells|| lol

[timber iron]

How do I beat ||traitor lord I can't been trying ages||

Oh it didn't cover how do I do that again

[sturdy finch]

||

[timber iron]

Ah ty

[olive mirage]

Pretty much everything is a spoiler, even if it’s in the trailers and stuff.

If it’s a noun tag it

Besides a few things that are annoying like charm and map just for simplicity

Used to be that you didn’t have to tag stuff it it was before ||dirtmouth|| but there were loopholes and stuff so we just moved it to everything

[stoic cedar]

||u just need to react to each of the attacks properly, which takes practice to do. There is a certain rhythm to the fight, after u dodge an attack, go in for a couple of hits before reacting to his next attack. U generally want to stay close to traitor lord the entire fight or else ull find it hard to land hits in. ||

[gloomy hollow]

You can ||dash|| through every single attack

[hoary anvil]

^ this is true*
*except technically ||the scythes one that triggers only when you're at a distance||

[gloomy hollow]

Yeah but that one is super easy to dodge

[cursive lotus]

Hello everybody! I've been having trouble with the ||Brooding Mawlek|| boss fight, and have been dying constantly. If any of you know any tips or tricks on how to beat them, then I would love to hear 'em!

[stoic cedar]

u didnt spoiler tag ||brooding mawlek|| properly

[cursive lotus]

sorry, I don't know how to, could you tell me?

[stoic cedar]

[hoary anvil]

double bars rather than single bars

| -> ||

[cursive lotus]

Thanks, appreciate it

[hoary anvil]

as for this, be aware that the ||claw swipes are triggered by getting close - get close, get in a hit or two, then back off to dodge the claw swipe||. if you are struggling with anything else, feel free to specify

[stoic cedar]

||as a cautionary note, brooding mawlek can be accessed very early into the game, and if u do the fight that early, then ull have quite a bit of trouble beating it. if u arent very far into ur playthrough i would suggest holding off on fighting that boss and explore elsewhere for the time being.||

[cursive lotus]

I've been having trouble with the ||lava attack where they spew a bunch of lava on either side of the arena|| if you could tell me how to dodge that I would appreciate it

[cursive lotus]

I'm fighting them after getting the ||mothwing cloak|| if you think thats a good time to fight them

[stoic cedar]

||in that case, u have to react to that spewing attack quite quickly, dash over brooding mawlek to the other side of it so that u dont get hit by the projectiles||

[hoary anvil]

ah that one ... assuming you are referring to the one where ||it's a bunch at the same time, rather than spread out|| low gear you should ||jump (and dash) over mawlek to the other side - all of mawlek's actions get paused during that one so you won't get sniped while over them or claw slashed||. if instead it's just the ||gradual ones||, you just have to ||guess where they're going and not be there||.

[hoary anvil]

wouldn't labelling them as ||infection|| technically be an uncspoiler?

[stoic cedar]

maybe, ill edit that out then

[cursive lotus]

Alright, thanks everybody for the help! I'm going to try and beat them now and if I have another problem I'll tell you all. Bye!

[hoary anvil]

🫡

[cursive lotus]

Hey guys, sorry to be a bother again, but the ||spikes before you get to the boss fight|| are really hard to get consistently. Does anybody know of a trick to get past them more consistently?

[vague cloak]

||down pogo||

[sturdy finch]

is this your first playthrough?

[stoic cedar]

||i assume they already know about that since they already got to brooding mawlek||

[vague cloak]

Fair just making sure

[cursive lotus]

Yes

[sturdy finch]

||brooding mawlek is completely optional||

||think of it like a jump you can't make right now. come back when you have better gear||

[vague cloak]

It is useful tho

[stoic cedar]

technically not optional if u care about ||completion percentage|| but yea ||u can come back to brooding mawlek whenever u want||

[sturdy finch]

in this sense basically nothing in hollow knight is optional, so i don't think it's a very useful definition

[cursive lotus]

What does ||Brooding Mawlek|| even drop anyway?

[stoic cedar]

||there are still many things u can do in hollow knight that dont count towards completion percentage such as path of pain and such. those are what i would consider optional||

[sturdy finch]

i'd recommend coming back later, it's part of the fun

but if you really must know, ||a very small health upgrade||

i assure you you aren't missing out by saving it for later

[cursive lotus]

I guess your right, I'll just come back later. But thank you everybody who was helping me ||beat this boss|| for real this time, goodbye!

[sturdy finch]

sidenote: i'd recommend ||putting a marker on the map|| so you even remember it later

you can buy them from ||iselda, at her shop in dirtmouth||

there is so much game in this game to get lost in, and soon enough you will be able to ||access many areas that were previously just out of reach||

[main urchin]

Um, this is normal? (Is a photo i send to My friend on tiktok when that appeared to me.)

[sturdy finch]

not a bug, this is intended behavior

[torn vector]

Yes it’s normal

[main urchin]

||I was exploring what would be the area of spiders and such at the edge of the map and another little knight appeared||
||To be honest, I was pretty scared||

[sturdy finch]

whether you should follow it is up to you

[torn vector]

Follow it it’s the knights brother

[main urchin]

Do you know why that happens?

[stoic cedar]

follow it and ull see

[main urchin]

Uh, ||When he left the screen and I went back a bit to see if he was still there he disappeared, (and no, I didn't go out to the next area so to speak) he literally walked out of the player's camera and when I came back he disappeared||

Is there any way to trigger it to appear? Or is it random?

[torn vector]

You can find him again

If you look good enough

[sturdy finch]

this is a deliberate trigger

it's not anything you did, it's just a thing that exists in ||deepnest||

[torn vector]

It’s not a random event or anything it happens when you go to where you are for the first time

[sturdy finch]

if you're curious about it, follow it! what's the worst that could happen?

[main urchin]

[main urchin]

I feel like he's going to take me to a boss... But why not?

[hoary anvil]

(iirc ||the first encounter is in an unreachable -> unfollowable location||)

[torn vector]

It’s not you can get there I’m pretty sure

[hoary anvil]

...really... should probably try and find it then ... i know ||the other encounters are reachable though||

[torn vector]

||You get there through a breakable wall||

[main urchin]

||I was able to get to where it was but the problem is that it would leave the screen anyway, so it was going to disappear anyway.||

[hoary anvil]

wiki:

[torn vector]

Oh

My bad

I thought you could

[hoary anvil]

👀 seems like ||second encounter location|| based on the mention of ||leaving||? did you ||break any walls|| to reach it?

((||first encounter is easy to not notice||))

[torn vector]

How was the first encounter easy not to notice?

[hoary anvil]

idk i was too busy focusing on where i was going to notice something in the corner of the screen on my first playthrough

[torn vector]

It’s literally right under you when you first see it

[hoary anvil]

i keep forgetting the first ones' exact location

[torn vector]

Do you think this is easy not to notice?

[hoary anvil]

that's not what i'm referring to

i think

[stoic cedar]

||that looks like the second encounter to me||

[torn vector]

Is it?

[main urchin]

||I'm going to describe what happened, I was exploring that spider zone (I don't know what it's called in English, I play in Spanish) and when I got close to a wall (which can't be broken) I saw it and took a photo.
But when I moved away a little (without making any animation to move from one area to another, it just left the screen vision), when I came back it simply disappeared
Then I looked for a way to get to the place where it was (just out of curiosity, knowing that it was no longer there), I was able to get there without any problems.||

[main urchin]

:0.

[torn vector]

||I’m sorry I haven’t replayed the game in ages I completely forgot what the first time you see lt looks like||

Apologies

[stoic cedar]

||here, i scrolled through the wiki and found this image of the first encounter. i dont remember the exact location of this but yea this is the first encounter||

[main urchin]

||And I don't think I missed his first appearance because I'm always attentive to even the smallest detail||

[main urchin]

THIS IS THE PLASE

[torn vector]

||The spider area is called deepnest||

In English

[main urchin]

Yuh is the same place

[hoary anvil]

yeah, you ||won't find them again in that room||

[main urchin]

Ooh, okey tnxx

[main urchin]

So basically the photo I took ||is the first meeting||, right?

[stoic cedar]

looks like it from what i can tell

[hoary anvil]

yes

by chance can you show your inventory? ||just curious if you have all the necessary* items to get the next one. *cursed skips exist to bypass the need||

[main urchin]

Sure, Wait a moment, I'll turn on my computer and enter HK

[hoary anvil]

(i assume you will remember the image spoilers ofc)

[main urchin]

Yup

Deam 33 hours, I started playing 7 days ago

[noble steppe]

bro is on the grind

[hoary anvil]

i never end up trusting the steam time as it'll also count when i leave it on in the background, which i sometimes do for games for various reasons. like my stanley parable on steam has like 46h on steam, but i can guarantee like 24 of them were afk on some tuesday

[main urchin]

||And I already have 7 masks||

[main urchin]

Yeah, The game I have now is only 27 hours old.

[hoary anvil]

alright ... and to answer the question of do you have all the necessary gear to find them another time: ||yes, yes you do||.

[main urchin]

I guess?

[hoary anvil]

[i am the one answering the question - the answer is in the spoiler tag]

[main urchin]

My only issue is that I'm stuck in progression ||(I can't find hornet)||

That's why I started exploring the map.

And I got all that

[hoary anvil]

that is a good response to that kind of situation

[main urchin]

||Where is the second encounter with her?||

[hoary anvil]

ah ... you want to actually know ... can i have a map screenshot to give a pointer in the general direction without spoiling too much?

[main urchin]

Sure

It's in Spanish (so srry)

[sturdy finch]

||far right edge||

[hoary anvil]

(^ this is correct, called ||kingdom's edge|| in english)

[main urchin]

Here?

[hoary anvil]

yes

[main urchin]

Okey, Now I'm going

[cursive lotus]

Hello everybody, I've beaten ||Hornet|| and got the ||mothwing cloak|| , but don't know where to go next. could somebody help?

[stoic cedar]

||try to think of places that you can get to now that u have dash. do u want a more specific hint as to where to look?||

[cursive lotus]

||yeah, it would be great to have a more specific hint||

[stoic cedar]

||try looking near the hot springs in crossroads. theres a path that needs dash to get to nearby there||

[sturdy finch]

environment-based hint: ||you'll want to look for areas that are foggy or fungal, either of those will help you progress||

[cursive lotus]

Oh yeah, your talking about ||fungle waste|| I've been there already sorry I forgot to tell you that. I've discovered a good portion of the ||fungle waste|| but found nothing

[main urchin]

How can I get past this?

[sturdy finch]

||keep looking, to get further you'll need to intrude on a tribe that don't really like intruders||

[stoic cedar]

||u cant yet, that requires a late game item that u currently dont have||

[hoary anvil]

||you can't for now - it's locked behind a couple other things that are locked behind hornet 2 that you're looking for||

[cursive lotus]

Okay got it, I'll try looking for this ||"tribe"|| thanks again and thanks @stoic cedar . Goodbye!

[main urchin]

||Which item?||

[sturdy finch]

if you want a more specific hint: ||look for structures in the fungal waste that look 'built'--not built in the architecture of the crossroads, but decidedly not fungal either||

||those weird-looking bone levers are another breadcrumb||

[main urchin]

@hoary anvil ||Forget it, I already found it||

[hoary anvil]

didn't forget, just already answered it

[hoary anvil]

for now i'll say it shouldn't be too hard to figure it out after you get it

[noble steppe]

theres an achivement for ||banishing the grimm troupe||, but how do I do that?

||I've already beaten NKG|| if that matters

[stoic cedar]

||u cannot banish if uve already beaten nkg, ull have to do it on a separate save file||

[noble steppe]

oh bruh

so its like one or the other

[stoic cedar]

yes they are mutually exclusive

[noble steppe]

rip ok

anyway how do I do it?

[stoic cedar]

||u first have to have beaten troupe master grimm, but not beaten nightmare king grimm. u then go to a room in distant village (not beasts den) where ull meet up with brumm. then, head to the nightmare lantern in howling cliffs, brumm will be there as well. talk to brumm to banish the grimm troupe||

[noble steppe]

ok thanks

[stoic cedar]

||note that if u banish the grimm troupe before acquiring all the unbreakable charms, then it will be impossible to acquire the unbreakable charms that u havent gotten yet. this is becuz the whole troupe will disappear once u banish it, which includes divine||

[noble steppe]

ok thanks, makes sense

[cursive lotus]

Hey everybody! I've discovered the ||mantis village|| and I'm wondering, "What's the easiest way to kill the ||mantis warrior||?" So if anybody could help answer the question, I would appreciate it.

[sturdy finch]

||i would just avoid them if possible||

||dash past, maybe nail pogo over like those purple mushrooms||

[torn vector]

Jump over them and hit them in the back and jump back to the other side to do it again

[hoary anvil]

so ... ||easiest technically would be a quick-kill strat of nail + vs (5 + 15 dmg, they have 20 hp), beyond that you hit them and then dash away to evade their counter||

[cursive lotus]

Okay, thanks again everybody!

[bold matrix]

||i just beat soul master, how do i get out of city of tears?||

||do i have to beat soul tyrant?||

[livid shoal]

No

[olive mirage]

nah just keep exploring

you can beat him if you want but youre gonna have a hard time with the gear you have right now

[bold matrix]

yeah im trying but i keep getting jumped by random enemies and i cant find anything

[olive mirage]

try and explore the|| upper left of the city if you want to get out. ||

[bold matrix]

Okay, thanks.

[olive mirage]

if you want more precise guidance, you can send a photo of your map

[bold matrix]

Okay, thanks.

[bold matrix]

||where is this part of city of tears located on the map?||

[civic pier]

||soul sanctuary, it's above the city and not sure but it may have it's own map||

[spice minnow]

it shares ||map|| with ||city||

[stoic cedar]

||it is called soul sanctum, not soul sanctuary. And also it’s not above city of tears, it’s literally in city of tears||

[civic pier]

Geh

I can't remember well

[bold matrix]

||i cant get there, the door is locked?||

[livid shoal]

Dawg 😭

[stoic cedar]

u need to get there through another way

[bold matrix]

Ueah wait i just found the way

[cursive lotus]

Can anybody help me with ||that one guy you fight in the soul sanctum|| I don't know of any other way of putting it, sorry

he's right below ||Cornifer||

[livid shoal]

Gg

[cursive lotus]

thanks,

[tiny ember]

Well played

[cursive lotus]

thanks for the help anyway

[cursive lotus]

Hello again, I need help with ||Soul Master||, if you could, tell me some tricks to help ||beat him||

[deft osprey]

Hey y'all, what's ||Sly's key for ? I can't find where to use it :3||

[thorny token]

||elegant key?||

||find an elegant lock...||

[civic pier]

||When he is shooting, push in to hit him, when he spawns orbs around him and charges first dodge and then stand in the middle while heal||

[thorny token]

||An explorer found this fancy key floating in the waterways of the city far below us. I've not cleaned it.||

[deft osprey]

||regular|| ?

[thorny token]

Oh nvm then

Oopsies

[thorny token]

||simple key?||

[deft osprey]

yes

[thorny token]

There's multiple different places it could go

[deft osprey]

which one's the coolest ?

[thorny token]

How far are you in the game?

[deft osprey]

||just discovered Crystal peaks and got the crystal heart||

[thorny token]

In that case...

||there's a sewer grate in city of tears||

That's probably best for progression

[deft osprey]

ooh ? where's ||city of tears ?||

[thorny token]

Fuck

[deft osprey]

I'm sorry 😭

[thorny token]

Me when accidental spoilers

Nah it's MB for not checking thoroughly

[deft osprey]

nah it's fine

no no dw I don't mind

[thorny token]

Shit what's the best thing to do then 😭

[deft osprey]

if anything it just makes me wanna play the game more to discover it !

[thorny token]

Uuuhhhh you murdered ||false knight || right?

[deft osprey]

are you saying I grinded 900 geo for nothing 😭

[thorny token]

Do you have a thing in your inventory called ||city crest?||

[deft osprey]

of course

[ancient flame]

Normaly you discover ||city of tears before crystal peaks||

[thorny token]

Yeah...

Bro grinded like 1800 geo 💀

That's a very weird progression path

[deft osprey]

yup

oh 😭

[thorny token]

Uhh, find a big ass room on the right hand side of ||fungal wastes||

Like very long

All the way on the right

[deft osprey]

this?

[thorny token]

Yup

But no tag on image

[deft osprey]

the ||elevator to it is blocked||

oh

[thorny token]

Btw is this tagged my phone is tweaking atm

[cursive lotus]

This game is a Metroidvania meaning if you can go somewhere, it's at least somewhat intended

[ancient flame]

Sry

[humble sinew]

||are bosses on radiant usually faster than normal? or we only get one hit on radiant, no other things?||

[thorny token]

Lmao it's fine

[cursive lotus]

Yeah, the ||Soul Twister||

[thorny token]

||it's ascended but you die in one hit||

[cursive lotus]

they're getting on my nerves

[thorny token]

||just decimate them with a fireball, and don't let it get distance||

[ancient flame]

||as much HP than the ascended version||

[thorny token]

Alternatively which is what I do: run past them all

[humble sinew]

||i can easily beat hornet on ascended WITHOUT a single hit, but idk why i cant on radiant. i guess the pressure just gets to me 😭||

[thorny token]

Yep

Sounds about right

[humble sinew]

any advice?

[ancient flame]

It was the same with me with ||NKG||

[thorny token]

git gud practice

[humble sinew]

||i told you i can defeat hornet in ascended without any hits but idk why in radiant||

[thorny token]

I find that just trying to dodge the attacks first and learning the patterns is good

I think after enough attempts you just kinda lock in and do it

[humble sinew]

||i love the choir themed music of hornet in the radiant/ascended fights||

||time to attempt path of pain after a year, wish me luck 😭||

||cant complete room 4 💀||

[deft osprey]

finally got here, thanks y'all :) love the music already

[humble sinew]

yep, ||city of tears|| is the best OST imo

[deft osprey]

I agree ! but it's an incredibly hard choice lol

[humble sinew]

tbh yeah, but ||hornet's|| ost is also one of my favorites

[deft osprey]

OH YEAH i listen to it while studying it's so good

[humble sinew]

also ||mantis lords||

[deft osprey]

not there yet >:3

HE CAN DO THAT ???

[humble sinew]

ohh im so sorry but usually i think its before city of tears 😭

[deft osprey]

lmao I've been avoiding ||the water for so long and he can just SWIM HE'S SO CUTE WHT THE HELL||

[deft osprey]

IT'S FINE LMAO 😭

[humble sinew]

just dont search the OST up, you wanna hear it when you finally find the boss, because that hits different

[deft osprey]

I heard the full ost years ago lol it's fire music !! but playing it is different so I think it's ifne :)

[cursive lotus]

I need help with ||Soul Master||

please

[dark viper]

Which attack is the most troublesome

[cursive lotus]

Near the end, ||when he smashes the glass beneath you|| I'm having trouble dodgeing the attack where ||he summons the fireballs and throws them at you||

it's getting annoying because I get so far into the fight, then die

[dark viper]

Try to get those fireballs to hit ground/wall so they dont turn around at u again, also if u have same hp to spare u can try just quick kill him tanking a hit or 2 iirc thats how i first beat him

When he summons the fireballs he can be on ground or in the air, if he is on ground amd u have 3 or 4 hp u can try to just tank it amd kill him quickly

If he is in the air well unlucky focus on mainly dogding and getting free hits when u can

You can beat him i belive in you

[cursive lotus]

got it

[dark viper]

He is defficult on first playthrou but gets very easy with practise like most bosses

[cursive lotus]

thanks, I have hopes that this attempt will be it!

[dark viper]

Good luck

U can do it

[bright vigil]

||btw this guy said come back after i finish killing stuff or something for a reward, how do i know i am done?||

[muted pumice]

||if I do the second difficulty in the colosseum of fools again do I still get a pale ore? I did the third one thinking it would give me but I got nothing so I am wondering if I do it a second time does the reward change or something?||

[dark viper]

Just ||geo||

[dark viper]

In your inventory u have ||hunters journal||

[bright vigil]

yes ik

i mean how do i know its done?

||like kill everything just once or until i unlock his talk about it?||

[dark viper]

Left bottom corner u have how many u met and killer

Just once i think, im not sure tho, havent gotten to maxing it yet

[bright vigil]

is it about my ||charms ||or smth

[dark viper]

I recommend practising him in|| HoG||

[dark viper]

Idk what r u using

It might be but idk

[austere wolf]

i have all of them except ||grimmchild|| but im using ||quick slash|| ||shaman stone unbreakable heart and sharp shadow||

[dark viper]

Its good i personally dont rly like|| sharp shadow|| and would switch it for spell ||twister||

[austere wolf]

k

[bright vigil]

||btw i heard there is 45 charms but i only see 40 slots, where are the other 5?||

[austere wolf]

sometimes it helps me with ||collector|| for some reason not sure why tho

[alpine comet]

||sharp shadow ||best charm

get it asap

[long kettle]

I like ||sharp shadow, it is just a charm that people have different opinions of||, you don't need to switch it, but, equally, you don't need to keep it

[alpine comet]

if you already have it THEN USE IT

[dark viper]

Sometimes there can be 2 ||charms|| in 1 slot depending how certain qests go

[austere wolf]

i already have all ||charms|| except ||grimmchild ||because i banish ||grimm troupe|| but ill try ||spell tiwster|| and ||sharp shadow|| and see how i go

[bright vigil]

its surprisingly useful i thought its a niche one

[long kettle]

gl

[dark viper]

Or like|| fragile streangth and unbreakable|| take 1 spot

[long kettle]

spoiler ||charm?||, just to cover the bases

[dark viper]

Use|| ddark ||a lot

[austere wolf]

i forgor what ||ddark|| was is it a ||charm||

i havent played in ages

[dark viper]

||down spell||

[austere wolf]

[dark viper]

[austere wolf]

[long kettle]

btw, do you want specific help for ||GPZ|| or do you just wanna try it now?

[austere wolf]

trying spell ||twister|| first

[austere wolf]

i usually enter the fight with less health than full so i die

[dark viper]

Idr whats before ||gpz||

[austere wolf]

idk too

[dark viper]

Ive not touched ||p3|| in like 2 weeks

[austere wolf]

maybe i just actually suck at ||gpz||

[dark viper]

Im doing ||HoG|| rn

[dark viper]

Dw he is hard

He is the reason i dont do ||p3||

He annoying af

[long kettle]

||Galien||

[bright vigil]

||i hate when grim does feint attack||

[austere wolf]

i've beaten him twice before but maybe its because i havent played hk in a while

[bright vigil]

||i just dash into him ||

[dark viper]

Oh god

I hate him

[long kettle]

Practice ||Galien|| if you are entering the fight low hp

[dark viper]

||Radiant|| took me like 30min

[austere wolf]

trying ||p3 ||now

why is|| elder hu|| in ||godhome|| he's totally not a god lol

[long kettle]

||Massive Moss Charger||

[austere wolf]

oh

right

ok maybe its not just ||gpz ||thats giving me trouble

i keep dying to ||god tamer|| for some reason

i know like every attack but i still die at full health

[long kettle]

'Tis a common ||occurrence when doing p3, I, too, struggled suddenly with God Tamer for no reason when doing p3||

[dark viper]

||Pogo and ddark||

Its an annoying one but not hard

[austere wolf]

ok

[dark viper]

The ||spit attack ||is annoying

[austere wolf]

ye

[dark viper]

Should i tag that

Uhhh

Eh i will

[long kettle]

Some general tips:
||Try and pogo on the beast constantly, moving with it, and dodging sideways when the tamer attacks, and if it rolls, do down spell, or move away and dash under when it moves towards you after bouncing off the wall.
If you get stuck in front of the beast, keep dodging the spits, and wait for it to roll, so that you can jump over it, and then jump onto it again and renew the pogo.||

[long kettle]

Basically this

[bright vigil]

||where is the collector?||

[supple sluice]

||When I get to God tamer I stand back and charge nail so once the tamer jumps off I can do a six hit cyclone slash||

[supple sluice]

[long kettle]

Fun too though

[austere wolf]

[wise nimbus]

Will the controller get automatically keymapped when connected to HK?

Or will shu have to do it manually

[long kettle]

I don't know, and I don't think there is anyone else here to help rn, so I will look it up and get back to you

[austere wolf]

i s there a way to connect like switch controllers to pc lol

because i cannot play mouse and keyboard

[supple sluice]

Yes but I wouldn’t recommend it unless the controller is advertised to work on both

[austere wolf]

for my life

[austere wolf]

ok

is there also a way to like

change saves on differen t dvices

[supple sluice]

Save editor mods

[long kettle]

I think that the controls will be automatically keymapped. But take that with a grain of salt since I have never once used controller for HK

[wise nimbus]

okk, thnx regardless

[austere wolf]

uh ok i am gonna practice uh ||gpz|| now

[long kettle]

How did|| NKG ||go?

[austere wolf]

alright

i didnt beat him but

any tips for ||gpz||

[wise nimbus]

stay calm

Don't rush

ANYTHING

cause he's random af

[long kettle]

Sure.
General tips:
||When he lands from a jump, you can safely get a hit, but then you need to be ready to dash away, in case he walks at you. This is true even if he keeps jumping afterwards.
When he spawns enemies, you can get a lot of safe hits on him, but then you should focus on removing the small enemies.
When he staggers, you can heal once definitely (assuming you are far enough from a small enemy) and still have time to clear an enemy probably (or the other way around), and you can heal twice if there are no small enemies and you start healing immediately||

Specific tips:
||When he does the falling attack, stand still (unless there are small enemies, in which case move in the same direction as much as you can) and when he appears on screen, dash and then you can get a free hit or two (maybe three). Alternatively, you can use the down spell when he is about to land on you and then upswing him while you are walking out of his hitbox.
When he does the nail charge attack thingy, try to jump above him, it is (pretty much) the only safe time to pogo him, and pogoing is recommended, but be wary about it since if you pogo too low and he staggers, you can get hit too. When he falls over after using the nail charge attack, use down spell, or dash off him, since otherwise he can hit you when he stands up.
I can't remember the other moves.||

Hope this helps and isn't overwhelming

[long kettle]

Also this

[austere wolf]

wait i ahave something

when he uh

does the weird fall where he comes from the ceiling

use ||ddark ||to hurt him

ok let me read this
