[wary gust]

I have this ability to play hollow knight, forgot everything then replay the game as if I’ve never played it before

[stoic cedar]

yea u can get lucky with it, but it needs a ton of practice to get any consistency with it. ive practiced it for an hour and only managed to get it twice in a row, never got it three times in a row. i really wanted to see if i could incorporate it in my speedruns but seeing how terrible my consistency was with it, i decided i definitely wouldnt be doing them during runs

[spark cradle]

||how to get the good hollow knight||

[wary gust]

Now ||you can unlock a lot of new areas||

[ivory kindle]

1nd

Beat

That

Damm

Worm

[wary gust]

Wait who

[ivory kindle]

Yk in || in Royal water way||

More like sea cucumber

[wary gust]

Ummmm

What

Where is he

Like

I don’t remember that at all

[ivory kindle]

You gota break floor for him . I'll send pic of him in dms once there

[stoic cedar]

that boss is called ||flukemarm||

[spark cradle]

i did

[spark cradle]

that one was so unnecessary

[ivory kindle]

Ye

How do I escape.....

[dark viper]

bro u have some hard ones done and easy ones left

[sinful thistle]

How do I do || oblobbles in the hall of gods? || I can't even beat them || ascended ||

[dark viper]

same

its one of the hardest

its basicly rng

[inner robin]

Yeah unfortunately there’s not exactly a trick to make it easy I WISH

[wary gust]

Oooh that guy lmao

[wary gust]

Oop

So many of the enemies in this game are RNG it’s annoying

[stoic cedar]

||narts are the best way to go here. cyclone will deal good dps while also giving u a good amount of soul. dash slash is good for when they are further away. dont forget that oblobbles will only turn towards u when u hit them, and they will also turn around if they come into contact with either a wall or another oblobble, so u can manipulate their positioning that way. conserve ur spell usage until phase 2, when there is only one oblobble left. then start spamming spells at it like crazy. if u run out of soul and the oblobble is still not dead, ull need to dash slash it until it dies||

||not to say that u shouldnt use spells in the first phase, in fact if u can hit them both with shade soul or abyss shriek then thats a ton of value, but u shouldnt spam them either. make sure u have a good amount of soul going into second phase||

[wary gust]

Is ||channeled nail enough for second collosseum?||

[broken lagoon]

||i just use quick slash, strength and steady body, and just spam and they die before i die||

[spare garnet]

||any nail is||

i mean ||u can do any colloseum with any nails u just need better good charms||

[vivid fog]

what was the previous?

[wary gust]

What would you recommend?

[sinful thistle]

How many staggers for|| radiant lost kin ||

[stoic cedar]

||for lost kin, the staggers are based on the amount of times u hit the boss, not the amount of damage you deal to it, so there isnt a set number of staggers for lost kin||

[wary gust]

Not anything to worry about

[vivid fog]

okay...

[wary gust]

It’s in the past ❤️

[burnt grove]

does someone have a list for ||112%||?

[sterile pawn]

||https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Completion_(Hollow_Knight)||

[burnt grove]

thank you

[solid heart]

I was asleep, but ||MMM|| was never patched, maybe TC recognized it was way too hard to pull off, and the original ||room duping that consisted on going out of bounds and early control got patched, but a new one was found with stag stations||, they are the the 2 main glitches of All Glitches speedruns, while No ||MMM|| is ran in older versions

[sinful thistle]

WHY did they have to make || uumuu ||immune to explosions during|| its scream|| WHY

[sterile pawn]

Do you mean ||mms?||

[sinful thistle]

What

[sterile pawn]

Tbh I don't know how ||lifeblood would interact with dupes||

[sterile pawn]

Talking to Genio

[sinful thistle]

Ok but like

How do you bea||t pantheon uumu||

[sterile pawn]

||Dream nail jellie, hit jellie into uumuu spam shadesoul||

[solid heart]

Yes, sorry, I'm stupid

[solid heart]

There is a ||1 cycle strat||, it dies in ||1 jelly, 4 strength slashes and 2 shaman shade souls||, if you don't have ||shaman|| 3 will work

[solid heart]

They are part of the room, so duping it will dupe the ||cocoon|| until you open them up

[tepid meadow]

is this what they call ||pantheons|| ?

where to find that boss which is not highlighted

[warped kite]

Yep

[tepid meadow]

can you pls tell me where to find the boss which is not highlighted

[warped kite]

Alright uh

[tepid meadow]

uh just tell me its name

i will search online

it will be much easier for you

[warped kite]

You sure?

[tepid meadow]

yea

i'll know its location

[jade heart]

its ||elder hu||

[tepid meadow]

thanks

[jade heart]

np

[rotund girder]

Hey guys I made it to greenpath and I saw a person and they ran away, so now I’m resting on the bench there, where do I go now? I’ve explored most of what I could get to down here. Thanks!

[tepid meadow]

||ADIDAS|| ||SHAW||

[jade heart]

you’re not MEANT to follow them up onto the ledge, try heading down and back up

[rotund girder]

What?

[wise nimbus]

Explore the upper areas, also spoiler tag ||greenpath||

[jade heart]

you’ll find out

[tepid meadow]

you'll know 🤭

[rotund girder]

Down and back up? Ok I’ll try

[rotund girder]

Sorry my bad! The upper of SPOILER or the whole map

[tepid meadow]

find ||cornifer|| get a map and make sure you have a ||quill|| and just go to areas which arent coloured

thats how i kept finding new places

[wise nimbus]

Upper of that particular area

[rotund girder]

Yeah good idea, can’t find him tho! I’ll keep looking

[rotund girder]

Ok! I think I’m there though isn’t that where the bench is? 🧐

[tepid meadow]

uhhh you will hear humming noises if you are in a room right next to him or in his room, more close you go more will be the noises

[rotund girder]

I’ll keep my ears peeled? Is that a saying

[tepid meadow]

if you still struggle, you can search his location on yt

[wise nimbus]

there are multiple area to ||rest||, u gotta spoiler tag ||benches|| too btw

[tepid meadow]

specificy your area tho

[rotund girder]

Ok 👌

[rotund girder]

Oh ok my bad

How do I spoiler tag 🏷️

[tepid meadow]

tbh, i too searched ||conifer||'s location for ||greenpath|| i found rest of his locations myself

[wise nimbus]

Add || before & after ur text

[tepid meadow]

idk why ||greenpath|| was hard

[rotund girder]

Fanks

[rotund girder]

Oh ok let’s see maybe I’ll find him! 😛

Thanks guys!

Hahaha just found him 🤣

[tepid meadow]

👍

[spiral sail]

guys trying ||radiant radiance||, having some problems in second phase, got any tips?

[shut sparrow]

what do you mean by second phase? ||plats?||
also please spoiler tag your message in this channel. Everything from the game needs to be tagged and you can tag text by putting two bars on each side || like this ||

[spiral sail]

yeah || plats ||

[tepid meadow]

btw that person you saw, who went away is one of my fav characters in game

[solid heart]

Two absolute value symbols to each side of the word | this ones
It should look like this II hello II > ||hello||

[spiral sail]

ok thx

[solid heart]

Stay in the middle, and wait for ||her|| to come to you, don't chase ||her|| around. Once ||she's in one of the 4 middle platforms, use descending dark on top of her just before her attack, that way it's safe to get a ton of hits and 1 or 2 shrieks after that||

[spiral sail]

ok but always struggling with the || tracking balls|| they always get me

[shut sparrow]

||try to stay on the central four platforms and never move to the outermost ones. Don't chase radiance around. If she teleports near the middle you can try to deal damage. If she teleports far away you shouldn't try to chase her.
Make sure you know which attack radiance is doing and how to dodge it before dealing damage. Some attacks can be dodged while for example shrieking however usually you should focus on dodging first.
If radiance's face lights up it means a burst attack is happening (the circle swords or the circle beams from radiance's face)
For the orbs don't move a lot. If you overreact they'll end up hitting you somehow. Stay calm and only jump or dash if necessary. Try to make them hit a wall or floor instead of making them circle around in the air||

[solid heart]

Make them fly into the ground, by moving opposite of their direction while they are above you, in ||plats, you can use the platform geometry to help too||

[spiral sail]

ok thx for the help

currently doing a contest with a friend to see who can do it first, this should help a bit

[sterile pawn]

||The thing I am not sure of is that if you collect the lifeblood in room a while being in room b. Would it get collected in room a aswell or not if it does then you can't get infinite you can only get as many as the max amount of rooms your pc can handle||

[broken lagoon]

i have ||110%|| and havent done ||pantheon 5|| yet does ||p5 give 2% or are there 2 things u do which give 1% each after p5?|| or am i missing something as i want ||p5% to be my 112%||

[spiral sail]

||p5|| does not give percentage

[broken lagoon]

oh

dang

why do we do it then

[spiral sail]

for fun

[broken lagoon]

shi is hell not fun

but i'll do it ig

[sterile pawn]

Bragging rights

[spiral sail]

indeed

i done it

[shut sparrow]

||also watch some radiant runs on YouTube. I recommend all bindings radiant though since regular radiant runs probably aren't very good and might still contain many mistakes that you shouldn't learn from||

[broken lagoon]

after ||112%|| i'll complete ||all pantheons with bindings one by one or sum||

[spiral sail]

and trying to do || nail binding|| but that a bit too hard

[solid heart]

Yesh, the memory is the limit, but duping a room just dupes everything, because all it does is put the room twice over, but you're in both like if you were in each individually. ||With cocoons|| this means there will be as many of thems as copies of that room, and hitting it will spawn ||that many cocoons X2 or X3 lifeseeds||

[wise nimbus]

How can shuu unlock ||radiance in hog||

[shut sparrow]

you'll get there

[wise nimbus]

[shut sparrow]

||radiance|| isn't in ||hog||

[crystal sable]

Hello hk help

[wise nimbus]

shuu has seen some screenshots

all fake!

[solid heart]

Normal ||radiant|| runs are too fast lol, they won't help too much as you said

[shut sparrow]

||that's not radiance||

it just looks similar

[wise nimbus]

ehh

[broken lagoon]

oh i think the things left are

[crystal sable]

|| abs rad is named rad in hog || : D

[wise nimbus]

care to elaborate?

[wise nimbus]

Ahh

[broken lagoon]

||killing nightmare king grimm and collecting 2400 essence||

[wise nimbus]

Sed

Shuu wanted to just play normal|| rad||

[broken lagoon]

how do i get it after im done with all the ||7 knights||

[wise nimbus]

||dream bosses, trees||

[solid heart]

||Dream trees||

[shut sparrow]

||defeat all warrior dreams and dream bosses||

[broken lagoon]

arent they one time

i think i did them all

[crystal sable]

||Visit graves of previous|| foes

[shut sparrow]

you don't need to do them

[crystal sable]

[wise nimbus]

U're confused b/w ||dream warriors & bosses||

[broken lagoon]

bosses i already killed?

[broken lagoon]

i think so

[spiral sail]

yes like ||lost kin||

[solid heart]

Wait, how many ||dreamgates||
Doesn't matter, you haven't killed all bosses then

[shut sparrow]

||it's called broken vessel. They won't know lost kin||

[broken lagoon]

i do use ||dreamgates|| but not too much, i used like 30-40 ||essence|| max

[solid heart]

That give essence (try to recall)
||Elder Hu, Gorb, Xero, Marmu, Galien, No Eyes, Markoth, Failed Champion, Lost Kin, Soul Tyrrant, White Defender and Grey Prince Zote||

[spiral sail]

oh my bad thought it was the other way around

[wise nimbus]

||Dream Bosses are dream versions of bosses those who u have defeated before, like false knight, soul master etc...
Warriors are those whom u can challenge & they are located at their respective graves||

[solid heart]

You're probably missing ||Either WD or Zote||

[spiral sail]

i dont think ||grey prince zote gives any|| he does give percentage tho

[broken lagoon]

havent done ||failed champion and soul tyrrant and white defender|| pretty sure

in ||pantheons i have but not outside||

[shut sparrow]

he does

[solid heart]

No, he doesn't give % because you can ||kill Zote in Green path|| but it gives ||300 essence the first time||

[sterile pawn]

||It could also be the case that you only get cocoon in the active room afaik. But either way getting infinite cocoons isn't really useful in glitched as we can just get invincability||

[broken lagoon]

i need ||essence|| not percentage, ik what 2 things are left for my percentage ig

[wise nimbus]

They'll give u sufficient ||essence ||then

[solid heart]

Well, go outside, but you are missing only one or two, because all of them combined without ||trees gives 2500 I believe, or really close||

[broken lagoon]

aight

[shut sparrow]

2700

[solid heart]

Did you yesterday||have 108|| and missing the ||4 pantheons?||

[broken lagoon]

should i ||112%|| rn or after ||p5|| just cus

[radiant raft]

Before

[sterile pawn]

After

[solid heart]

Ah right, then you're missing ||2 or 3 makes sense||

[broken lagoon]

no, i had ||missing 1 pantheon a charm||

[broken lagoon]

bet

[solid heart]

If anything @broken lagoon you have ||Low% TE bird essence grind||

[wise nimbus]

After for sure

[broken lagoon]

my dumbahh did go to ||godhome and do 3/5 pantheons|| before realising i could||use dreamnail on hollow knight to fight radiance||

[sterile pawn]

||Bees|| are faster

[radiant raft]

Don’t do it ||P5|| will invert your knees without all the shit ||112%|| gives

[solid heart]

Ik, but birds are tradition

[broken lagoon]

birds?

[shut sparrow]

depends on you. Idk what you're missing but ||p5 can be really challenging. If you don't care about that you can do it now but if you're missing something that would help you with it I recommend doing that first||

[broken lagoon]

i feel like ||112%|| is a big reward

so im gonna reward myself after doing every ||binding in all pantheons||

individually ofc im not THAT crazy

[solid heart]

||Maskflies, the passive creatures that just fly away when you approach, this was a joke because in Low% True Ending (Kill Radiance) speedruns, you need 1800 essence but can't kill most bosses, so you have to kill enemies for over 40 hours to get enough, originally it was done with maskflies, but bees are faster now||

[sterile pawn]

They are not very convinient though for ||bees you can just keep an auto clicker running for 40 hours instead of manually killing birds for 60 hours||

[wise nimbus]

Where's the freakin ||benchhh,
arghhh all that effort on sly & then this ungrateful sister stabs shuu with her nail ||

||P5||

[broken lagoon]

oh, i thought i really did have to just kill enemies for ||essence one by one||

until i asked yall

[solid heart]

It's ||1/200 with dream wielder 💀||

[broken lagoon]

id rather install hacks atp

[sterile pawn]

You can do it ||TE nmms style and kill xero like 18 times||

[solid heart]

After ||Hornet 2, P5 flipped Sly and her for some reason||

[wise nimbus]

[broken lagoon]

im struggling with ||nightmare king grimm||

in ||p5||

i can get to it everytime consistently but die there

[solid heart]

Or down patch to 1.1.1.4 and abuse ||fluke rekilling enemies on Xero too||

[wise nimbus]

Crazyy

[broken lagoon]

gon just do it ||below||

[broken lagoon]

||quick slash steady body|| spam spam

[spiral sail]

what attack u struggling on ||NKG||

[sterile pawn]

I think you mean 1114 which is the patch where|| flukes do this https://youtu.be/eNTtv2GYwVg||

[solid heart]

Right, typo

[sterile pawn]

I also didn't know that gave you more ||essence?||

[tawny sapphire]

Most balanced HK charm

[solid heart]

I don't know but I think... Oh maybe not, because you spawn the ||npc rather than directly, it'd be funny if it spawned 20 npcs lol||

[broken lagoon]

my issue with ||nightmare king grimm|| is he is right after some of the most disgusting bosses for me

and im like half hp

[solid heart]

He is right after the most disgusting bosses*

[wary gust]

Is there any way to deal with the ||giant flying orb guys that shoot random bs in every direction at the end of collosseum 2?||

[tawny sapphire]

Hitless it

[broken lagoon]

||zote...||

[broken lagoon]

i BARELY do it in normal

[tawny sapphire]

Yeah, kill

[spiral sail]

||radiant markoth ptsd||

[solid heart]

||damage tank, in Colo 2 that works||

[tawny sapphire]

Isn’t ||Failed Champ after Zote||?

[wary gust]

I can kill the first one but the second one won’t stop shooting piss missiles at me

[desert condor]

in the dlc right?

[wary gust]

I try

[broken lagoon]

i HATE that guy ||who has shield and throws nails at me||

cus the platforms are tiny asf

[solid heart]

||Markoth|| has the highest % of my hits in all my ||R5 runs|| by far

[wary gust]

It’s impossible to get hits when they just keep shooting and flying into you

[broken lagoon]

yes that thing

that THING

hate it

[tawny sapphire]

Use your ||spells||

[solid heart]

You're not alone, whoever at TC who decided to remove the ||floor|| should be fired

[tawny sapphire]

There are like 2 people

[spiral sail]

i did the||giant flying orb guys that shoot random bs in every direction at the end of collosseum 2C radiant|| was hell

[solid heart]

Exactly

[broken lagoon]

what i do is just SPAM and hope he dies before i do

and im left with 2 hearts

[broken lagoon]

it kinda works tho, havent died to him in ||pantheon|| yet

[solid heart]

But there's ||Zote next||

[broken lagoon]

he was an issue for me but when i didnt knew he wasnt neccessary i spammed him till i was one away from ||golden statue||

so can i do him consistently

[spiral sail]

||markoth|| took 25 hrs of my life to ||radiant||, the best things are ||gruberrfly elegy|| (goes through ||sheild||) and ||spell|| spamming second phase

[tawny sapphire]

I did ||NMG+Dashslash|| it only took me 1.5hrs

[spiral sail]

im just not skilled

i have over 200 hrs in the game

[shut sparrow]

||spell|| needs tags

[rotund girder]

Already Same! Found them and now fighting, cool design and attacks and stuff🤩

[burnt grove]

Okay so I looked at the ||112% completion|| guide and I think I miss only ||Nightmare King Grimm||, any tips on how to beat him?

[radiant raft]

Just keep throwing yourself at him until you memorize each of his attacks and how to counter them

[burnt grove]

so basically suicide?

[radiant raft]

Yes

Or just dodge

[burnt grove]

can he take damage while in this stage?

like if I use ||souls||

[radiant raft]

Yes

Use ||Vengeful Spirt(or shade soul whichever you have)||

Mad damage

To both of you to be clear

[burnt grove]

LMFAO

[burnt grove]

wouldn't ||Abyss Shriek|| be better?

[radiant raft]

Too close you’ll get hit too much

[burnt grove]

you're right

[broken lagoon]

yo how tf do u kill ||no eyes|| in ||pantheon 5|| the platforms are so annoying

[radiant raft]

It’s the kind of boss you just kinda do

I don’t fucking know what do I look like someone who’s done everything in the game?

[broken lagoon]

i mean 112%

pure completion so ye

[radiant raft]

Just don’t get hit that’s the best I can do

[foggy hedge]

Is there any way to get ||Radiance in Godhome? Not the Absolute version, just regular Radiance.||

[radiant raft]

No

Not without mods atleast

Just go back to ||black egg if you wanna rock her shit||

[plucky grove]

Hi does anyone have any tips on killing THESE? I'm going to loose it 😭

[sullen onyx]

guys uhm

[plucky grove]

I know it's like a big meme but seriously it's horrible 😭

[sullen onyx]

i just finished exploring ||the abyss and hornet was waiting for me on the entrance||, should i do anything else? i have already got the upgraded dash and i dont have the other spell to upgrade it

[radiant raft]

You missed one ||hunters journal entry||

[sullen onyx]

thanks i will search for that

[foggy hedge]

guys, I think I've had it too easy in life. Time to do ||path of pain.||

[radiant raft]

Do it hitless

You’ve had it far too easy for far too long

[elder shuttle]

you know where i can find the modinstaller 2 ?

[solid heart]

If you know he's going to do that you can react and ||cast a shriek before quickly dashing away||

[solid heart]

If you're on PC, ||Hall of Gods extras adds The Radiance and THK to Godhome by dreamnail AbsRad and PV respectively||

[sullen onyx]

did i got scammed where are they

[warped kite]

||just go A little bit to the right
Like just keep going to the right side||

[sullen onyx]

ohh i did it

now they just appear ig

[warped kite]

Good luck my friend

[tepid meadow]

how to open this gate

[radiant raft]

Did you do it before?

[tepid meadow]

yes thats why the statue got ||ddefender's crest in it||

[radiant raft]

You can’t

Also it’s not ||defenders crest||

[tepid meadow]

bruh what

what is it called then

[radiant raft]

||city crest||

[tepid meadow]

then how to open this

[radiant raft]

Don’t know

Never been

[tepid meadow]

....

ok

[solid heart]

That's decoration for lore only, it ||was once a door between the elevator and fungal, but got sealed like the one in pilgrim's way, that one cannot open, and there is no transition between the 2 rooms||

[tepid meadow]

thanks

would have made travelling easier if it was opened

:/

[solid heart]

But if you go to the other side from ||city|| you can go above it and find a ||breakable floor to open up the pathway with dive||

[tepid meadow]

can you pls tell where are you talking about

in this image

[shut sparrow]

come from the other side

[solid heart]

Here, in this room

[hoary anvil]

assuming you completed ||sanctum|| based on your map, if you come to it from the ||inside of city, you can open a dive shortcut above it||

[hoary anvil]

oh hey, would you look at that, someone else said it while i was drafting my message

[tepid meadow]

alr thanks

thanks

guys

where to dive from here

i dont see any breakable ground

@hoary anvil

[hoary anvil]

||climb the wall||

[tepid meadow]

thanks

found it

this made travelling easier thanks

[hoary anvil]

🫡

[tepid meadow]

is there any way to reach ||god home|| fast

like the nearest ||stag station|| or ||tram|| is far away

i can ||dreamgate their|| but them going back will be a pain

because of same reason

[hoary anvil]

once you're there, the fastest way out is to go ||up across the top of the junk pit room and then up to open a (1-way wall) shortcut in the naismith room, which from there you can either target city storerooms or kings station||

[tepid meadow]

thanks

[tiny crow]

is there a way to change default bg
it doesnt stay when i relaunch the game

(is it maybe related to hk vocalised mod)

[solid heart]

What's bg?

[acoustic sigil]

Background

[acoustic sigil]

Probably

You should make a post in #1057825333841240104 after reading #1090079233520451714

[solid heart]

Ah, I get it

[acoustic sigil]

gg

[tepid meadow]

in ||god's home|| at place where there is every boss, it isnt showing me ||sly|| how to get him to be there

[slender pike]

hes in a ||pantheon||

[cedar quiver]

have you gotten to him yet?

[slender pike]

clesrly not

also duck that carries you over a disproportionate length?

[tepid meadow]

i have to reach to him first ?

[glad furnace]

yup

[cedar quiver]

yep

[tepid meadow]

[slender pike]

actually it’s disproportionately small gap

[desert condor]

I completed ||Path of Pain||
Now I need some ||mental help||

[burnt grove]

you did great

[warped kite]

Nice

Congratulations my friend

And trust me
It was 100% worth it

[foggy hedge]

Nice job. I've been trying it for the last 30 minutes. ||Just made it to the second checkpoint.||

Might be slow, but progress is progress.

[desert condor]

my crumbled mind doubts that

[warped kite]

Yep

[desert condor]

It gets easier after the first part, best of luck with your run

[foggy hedge]

Yeah, apparently does. Just did the second part 3rd try!

On the ||3rd checkpoint.||

[desert condor]

wait your pfp is sick, did you draw it yourself

[warped kite]

No
I didn't
A friend of mine wanted me to match pfp with him and I agreed

[desert condor]

damn, still cool tho

[warped kite]

Yeah

[red glacier]

||what do I do to get more completion in game? I have 108% with all masks and soul with all abilities and have gotten every charm, and banished the grimm troupe, and the white palace.||

||will I get it done by beating zote and white defender up more and/or godhome?||

[desert condor]

||Godmaster DLC gives you your last 4%||

[desert condor]

They are optional

[red glacier]

||does getting the pantheon and mr mushroom endings count?||

[dark viper]

||Mr mushroom|| doesnt give %

||Pantheons ||do

[desert condor]

yes

[dark viper]

Its an achivement tho

[acoustic sigil]

||The endings don't give a %. Beating p1-p4 gives 1% each||

[desert condor]

I just realised, you could ||get 112% without even getting an ending||

[solid heart]

Yeah

[foggy hedge]

Lol, I got ||102% without even killing a single Dreamer.||

[dark viper]

Damn

I got my first ending at 106

[desert condor]

exactly, I too didnt kill ||any dreamer|| until I completed everything, was way over 100 already

[solid heart]

||I got my first ending at 10%||

[dark viper]

Litteraly imposible

Unless gliched then mayve

[solid heart]

Exactly lol, bad joke

[dark viper]

Imagine doing low% on first ever playthrou lol

[desert condor]

I believe the smallest %age possible is 4?

[foggy hedge]

Me, who got mine ||at 0%| (I uninstalled the game after dying to Crawlid in Howling Cliffs.)||

[desert condor]

||crawlids|| are too top, should be nerfed

[solid heart]

You can't reach ||cliffs without an ability ||

[foggy hedge]

||You spawn in the King's pass. Isn't that apart of Howling Cliffs?||

[solid heart]

||11% for normal, 23% for TE and 45% for GE||

[desert condor]

wait right, uhhh

[dark viper]

Wasnt it like 22

[desert condor]

im bad at this

[solid heart]

Technically yeah, but not really, like you have the ||KP and dirt mouth map separate from cliffs||

[foggy hedge]

Oh, yeah, I guess you're right.

[solid heart]

||11% for normal, 23% for TE and 45% for GE||

[dark viper]

Oh ok

[desert condor]

I have no idea, I just accounted for the ||4 pantheons||, forgot about everything else

[dark viper]

Wait its 11 for ||godhome ending|| right?

[foggy hedge]

Let's go, just unlocked ||one of the doors in path of pain. I'm the GREATEST Hollow Knight players that's EVER lived.||

[dark viper]

GG

[desert condor]

LFGG, now you can comeback later if you want without needing to do all that again, except the first 2 parts ofc

[foggy hedge]

https://tenor.com/view/salem-techsperts-gif-2188270028763501949

Replace technician with Hollow Knight player. That's me.

[red glacier]

Where do I see my deaths?

[desert condor]

he is the one

[foggy hedge]

You mean, how many times you've died in a playthrough? I don't think that's a feature.

[desert condor]

I dont think that is saved, just checked the save file data too

[solid heart]

No, 45, 11 for regular
||Like half the bosses in the game are a %||

[desert condor]

If you want to see your deaths ||play steel soul mode||

[solid heart]

Count or the death count mod (not retroactive), they are not counted by the game

[foggy hedge]

Honestly, I love that the game encourages you to play ||Steel Soul. Other games, like Minecraft, have Hardcore difficulty, and other challenging stuff, but no acheivments for it.||

[desert condor]

yeah and on the other hand has no achievement for ||PoP||

[solid heart]

Yeah, that's lackluster

[foggy hedge]

Yeah, for some reason. If players are going to attempt something hard in your game, they should be given something to brag about.

[dark viper]

Im kinda glad but also sad at the same time abt that

[foggy hedge]

Same. Image that was required for ||112% completion..||

[desert condor]

||Seal of Binding|| is the only proof

[dark viper]

Yea

[foggy hedge]

What's that?

[dark viper]

Imo its should be on of 2 ways
All achivements are easy for easy platinum
Or make it hard so players suffer

[solid heart]

The ||journal entry you get for beating PoP||

||R5|| should be an achievement too, I mean, it gives you something in-game

[foggy hedge]

I think it should be the second option. Getting all achievments for a game isn't required. You don't need to do that. It should be challenging.

[foggy hedge]

What does ||R5|| stand for?

[solid heart]

Hitless ||P5||

[foggy hedge]

Oh, good luck with that.

[dark viper]

Why R tho

[solid heart]

||Radiant||

[desert condor]

What is ||R5||
nvm saw it

[foggy hedge]

Yeah, I do not understand the abreviations for stuff the community has made.

[solid heart]

.

[dark viper]

Ohhhh

[foggy hedge]

oh, makes sense.

Spoiler blur that.

[solid heart]

Spoilers please, ||Quick slash, near Oro, and sharp shadow near deepnest tram||

[spark cradle]

||wdym hive knight, lost kin xero und markoth are so random||

[solid heart]

Spoiler names of bosses

[spark cradle]

also ||zote|| is so annoying

[vague karma]

uhh i dont think u can spoiler an image after posting it so ill just delete ig

[dark viper]

||Xero lost kin and hive knight|| were easy bruh

[vague karma]

thank you

[solid heart]

Yeah, next time do it 👍

[spark cradle]

ig so but on radiant they are annoying af

[dark viper]

True

[solid heart]

||LK's empty hops in R5 are nightmare fuel||

[dark viper]

Not rly

[spark cradle]

||how do i get the stronger version of hollow knight?||

[solid heart]

||Pantheons||

[dark viper]

||P4||

[cursive root]

Quick question: ||if i take damage with delicate flower, can I restart the quest or I wont be able to do the quest ever again?||

[dark viper]

Restart

[solid heart]

Thanks, it's been and will still be a long journey.

[spark cradle]

ive met him in ||p4|| but i died

[solid heart]

Well, you already got it in ||HoG|| then

[cursive root]

Ok thx

[spark cradle]

yessir

didnt know

[cursive root]

||if i leave the game with the delicate flower, will it be destroyed?||

[spark cradle]

||how do i get the stronger version of mastis lords? dream nail their statue?||

[solid heart]

||No, but you'll be sent back to Grey Mourner bench||

[solid heart]

||Pantheons||

[cursive root]

Alr

[spark cradle]

||are mantis sisters and dream hollow knight not otherwise ingame?||

[desert condor]

so does the (2 hits) mean you only took 2 hits in ||P5||

[cursive root]

||If i set my spawn point to queen’s garden bench, and then I go back to grey mourner, take the flower and then leave, am I still going to spawn at grey mourner’s bench?||

[solid heart]

||Yes, you are hard saved after picking up the flower||

[solid heart]

Correct

[cursive root]

5h1t

[solid heart]

Yeah, only 2 hits in 3 runs

[spark cradle]

vbruh

[cursive root]

My strategy was too good to be true😭😭

[desert condor]

I tried and failed doing that too

[cursive root]

Lmao

[desert condor]

There is one strat which makes it a bit easier

[cursive root]

Hm?

[solid heart]

You can still abuse benches, picking it up hard saves, but it isn't sitting, so ||big enemies won't respawn||, you can kill most of them and have ||most of the path clean||

[cursive root]

Alr thx

[desert condor]

||Basically because all enemies respawn after you sit on a bench, you can kill everyone on the path you are talking and go trace it back with the flower again, however passive enemies will respawn but they are easy to deal with, and make sure to not sit on a bench||

[desert condor]

yes that

[solid heart]

Not all, most, even some agressive ones||

[spark cradle]

||which are the hard ones||

[vagrant furnace]

hey

charm build for ||NKG||

pps

pls

I'm ass at the game

[spark cradle]

||the swarm that gathers geo||

[vagrant furnace]

bro

[desert condor]

Im assuming you have all ||11 notches and all charms cause you are at 107%||
If you want to ||heal in between the spikes, use quick focus + 3||
||sharp shadow + 2|| helps in getting some extra damage cause you ||dash a lot through him||
||fragile strength + 3|| to ||increase nail damage||
for remaining ||3 notches, you could use anything you want, dashmaster to increase sharp shadow damage to 1.5x and sprintmaster/grubsong/steady body||
feel free to change the last ||3 notches|| as per your needs

[vagrant furnace]

thanks

will do

[vagrant furnace]

you lose 2 notches because of ||grimmchild||

[desert condor]

ah right forgot about that

[fossil flower]

What worked well for me is just practise without much healing and use ||sprintmaster shaman quick slash strength and either steady or grub or nail master glory||

u only need to heal after the || flame pillar attacks||

It’s the safest way without ||charms||

[desert condor]

wait you can heal after that?

[dark viper]

||Oblobbles gpz absrad and markoth||

[fossil flower]

Once if ur prepared to move right after

[broken lagoon]

fuck ||markoth||

[fossil flower]

Ascended?

[broken lagoon]

||p5||

autistic ahh platform br

[vague karma]

||how much does fragile heart cost to make unbreakable?||

[broken lagoon]

i think 15k, not sure tho

[solid heart]

15k, 12k and 9k respectively

[neon egret]

smbdy to help me to play?

pls

[solid heart]

Play what? The whole game?

[neon egret]

just find the mushrooms map thingy

[solid heart]

You mean map in ||fungal wastes?||

[neon egret]

probably yeah

i dont now the name

but i think yes

[solid heart]

Near ||queen station||

[neon egret]

thanks

[sharp veldt]

||Will fragile charms break if u die in a dream fight?||

[vague cloak]

||depends on the dream||

||radiance and white palace yes. All the others no||

[sharp veldt]

Ok how he hell do you fight ||lost kin|| because this is NOT an easy fight like everyone says it is

[radiant raft]

Those people are more so skilled(I’m not trying to be rude or anything) at faster pace boss fights

[shell abyss]

you always dash out of the way

[sharp veldt]

Yeah ive been doing that

Not working!

[shell abyss]

it takes a while to learn the boss patterns

[torpid finch]

Does anyone have the ||absolute radiance halo? (The big symbol that stays behind her while she floats),|| I wanted to get that symbol but I can't find any

[radiant raft]

It might help to just remember ||broken vessels|| fight at like 2 times speed

[radiant raft]

Maybe the sprite sheet?

[sharp veldt]

Seeing as i struggled massively with it and im fairly certain i only beat it on a fluke, im not sure if thatll help me much at all

[solid heart]

Focus on dodging the main attacks (||dashes, dives and swings||) and punishing after. ||Balloons and jumps are what you have to be wary of, as they can easily catch you off guard, so you need a lot of improvising to decide what's safe to do||

[solid heart]

||Shade soul|| is specially powerful here because of ||multi hit potential||

[acoustic sigil]

If you still need it, all sprites are linked in #modding-discussion pins, you can find it there

[torpid finch]

Tysm

[sly venture]

||The wiki says that the Dung Defender will come back after I rest on a bench and go to his area, but when I come back after a while, he's not there. I need this to fight White Defender (I already defeated all 3 dreamers; did that lock me out or something?)||

[remote jacinth]

||room to the right of his arena, you can use dive in that room||...

[desert condor]

||dive under the floating|| block to the right of the arena

[sly venture]

Alr thanks I’ll try it

[solid heart]

You actually missed out on ||Ogrim being there to talk|| as getting the ||dreamers triggers the change for him to be asleep now to fight WD||

[sly venture]

Ah

[solid heart]

But it's just dialogue, so you can read it in the wiki

[sly venture]

Oh, found him, thanks

[sly venture]

||NOOO NOW I FEEL SAD||

[solid heart]

Finish the ||5 encounters if you want to feel sadder)||

[torpid finch]

I found it, thanks so so much

[normal onyx]

do i have to ||kill the Nightmare Grimm|| to earn the achievement of recording all creatures in the ||hunter's journal?||

[solid heart]

Spoilers on the names of bosses and items please

[solid heart]

But no, you don't have to, but there is a separate achievement for ||NKG, I think it's Ritual||

[normal onyx]

is that i ||banned his troupe by accident ||

[solid heart]

You can always make a second file, but do please add spoilers. If you don't know how, is with 2 absolute value symbols to the side of the phrase, | thes ones ||like this|.|

[normal onyx]

and can i get this achievement by ||killing the grimm in the home of the gods?||

[solid heart]

||No, you need to kill it in a new file, killing MKG in Godhome also doesn't give the entry||

[normal onyx]

||So I have to start all over again to earn the achievement, until I can summon the grimm?||

sad

although I would have to create other saves anyway for all achievements

[solid heart]

Yeah, exactly

[wary gust]

How do I get ||grimm troupe to visit dirtmouth I wanna fight||

[proper frost]

||the summon is in cliffs||

||look for funny walls||

[somber hill]

funni haha

[ebon copper]

can anybody tell me if there is a way to tell when ||dd|| will actually make ||the spikes from absrad|| disappear consistently, it always feels like a fking guessing game to see if i get to live it or not? ||(im tryna get rad absrad)||

[wary gust]

Unless my memory is wrong is it in the ||fury of the fallen|| room

[ebon copper]

its not

||fury|| is in ||kings pass||

[wary gust]

Oh okay mb I’m just making things up now

[stoic cedar]

||if u dive into them while they r spawning they will not be cleared. The safest way to always ensure u clear the spikes would be to not dive while they r spawning, but rather wait a little longer until they r fully spawned in.||

[ebon copper]

hml

thats so unfunny when i have all the other stuff to worry about

thx tho

[stoic cedar]

I wish u good luck on ||radiant abs rad||, that crap genuinely took me 7 hrs the first time I did it 💀

[ebon copper]

||oro and mato|| took me like 3hrs, now i only have|| absrad and markoth|| left

[stoic cedar]

||markoth is the easier one to radiant imo, it only took me 2hrs while abs rad took me 7hrs||

[ebon copper]

the last boss i got to ||ascended|| was ||markoth||, it took me 100s of attempts

so im scared of him

like deathly

[wary gust]

Is there a strat for that one ||warrior dream in queens gardens that rolls around and flys like a beyblade||

[ebon copper]

he is also the reason im inconsistent in ||p4 and 5||

[ebon copper]

dont hit upwards

[stoic cedar]

Maybe u used a bad strategy or u just don’t have a good feel of how that boss goes, since ||I think I was able to get it ascended within like 30 mins the first time I did that||

[ebon copper]

try to always hit him from the side

from the corners of the room

so he doesnt get more speed

[ebon copper]

damn, thats mad impressive

well, ill have to grind him ig

i genuienly lose an avg of like 7 masks to him in ||pantheons||

xd

hes the boss i died 2nd most to in it too

[stoic cedar]

Damn yea u need to put in some serious practice for ||markoth||. ||nail arts r what i would recommend against markoth so u could try that if u don’t use nail arts||

[frozen spear]

Who´s this?

[ebon copper]

1st is ||absrad||

[ebon copper]

ill try use more ig

[sharp veldt]

How do you even use them without getting hit constantly

I can never understand it

[ebon copper]

||gallien||

hes in ||deepnest||

[frozen spear]

ty

[stoic cedar]

Good spacing and recognition of when to use it, it’s just smth u get a feel for

[ebon copper]

i feel like its mostly about being confident in a fight

i love ||narts|| so much tho, so much untapped potential

[sharp veldt]

Im unsure ill ever really get the hang of it

Especially since im on controller

[ebon copper]

hk is better fit for controller to the best of my knowledge

tho im a pc player

[wary gust]

I’ve beat this game twice and never seen him wtf

[eternal zephyr]

Does anyone have any tips for ||pantheon 4||? I’ve made it to ||Pure Vessel|| several times and keep dying to him. I’ve been practicing against him solo, but I always seem to choke in the ||pantheon||.

[wary gust]

You might wanna put spoilers on that before you get crucified by mods

[eternal zephyr]

Oh sorry

[ebon copper]

||lifeblood cocoon room, around the middle of deepnest||

need a pic?

[wary gust]

Yeah can you send a pic I have no idea

[wary gust]

Oooh

I’ve explore next to none of ||deepnest||

[burnt siren]

which other bosses are you struggling with? the more opportunities you have getting to the boss the better your odds against it will be

[stoic cedar]

I mean if uve made it to ||pure vessel|| multiple times then all u really need to do is to keep practicing it in ||hall of gods || until u r consistent at it. I would suggest trying to beat it ||ascended|| before doing more attempts so that u really know u got the boss fight down

[ebon copper]

||i did pure vessel on ascended before p4,|| so maybe just even more practice

[eternal zephyr]

||Markoth|| is who I’ve been struggling against the most

[burnt siren]

thats fair

[ebon copper]

xd

markoths painful

[eternal zephyr]

Every other boss I can clear with at minimum full health, and if I’m lucky full soul. I’ve only had one good run with ||Markoth|| every other time has just been me making it out by the skin of my teeth.

[ebon copper]

xd

[burnt siren]

the easiest way to hit him is using the ||dash slash nail art||

it has a lot of range, doesnt use your soul, and pierces the shield

[ebon copper]

i usually lose 7 to 8 masks to ||markoth in p4 and 5||, so i get what you mean

as someone whos doghsit at him too

[eternal zephyr]

||My current strategy has been to go into his room with full soul and spam as much abyss shrieks as I can and pray that the nails or shield doesn’t hit me||

[burnt siren]

||markoth|| for me was one of those bosses where i said "you know what i suck at this" and spent like 3 hours grinding out ||radiant|| and became decent at it

[stoic cedar]

||u have to play it more patiently against markoth. U should generally avoid trying to rush markoth, but rather just wait for safe opportunities to hit him. Nail arts are perfect for a fight like this so make sure to use them. Especially during that spinning shield attack where he stays still, he’s literally a sitting duck and u can go in for some hits (dash slash is particularly good for that)||

[eternal zephyr]

The best run I ever had against him let me get four of those off, skipping his second phase and just two more nail hits to kill him instantly

[burnt siren]

make sure you use spoiler tags on that. ||shade soul|| is usually better against ||markoth||. youre in less danger doing it and it does basically the same damage

[stoic cedar]

||also the fact that shade soul can get double hits, especially if u have shaman stone equipped ||

[wary gust]

What are the best ||charms|| for exploring

[burnt siren]

literally 100% up to you based on what you personally find difficult

the stuff you have unlocked at any given time can be wildly different

[eternal zephyr]

Compass is a good one to keep handy when exploring a new area

[burnt siren]

and pretty much all charms are decent

[wary gust]

I hate ||primal aspids and those stupid ass crystal flies||

[ebon copper]

||dream wielder|| is kinda underrated tho

[eternal zephyr]

And if you care about speed, dash master and sprint master are there

[wary gust]

I never take off ||compass|| unless I’m fighting a boss

[burnt siren]

might want to bring ||mark of pride|| or ||shaman stone|| to improve your range then

[eternal zephyr]

I’ve kept ||sharp shadow|| on me ever since I found it

[wary gust]

Is it worth using ||longnail aswell as mark of pride or just mark||

[eternal zephyr]

Same with ||mark of pride||

[wary gust]

Oh yeah that’s what I wanted to find lmao I forgot

[sharp veldt]

||I used compass for a bit but actually took it off pretty quickly bc i realized it was hindering me from actually learning how to navigate the world||

[burnt siren]

id say pick one. you get diminishing returns from each

both are good

typically ||longnail|| is better in bosses but ||mark of pride|| is better while exploring

[eternal zephyr]

Casually I had ||mark of pride|| on at all times, then switched to ||long nail|| when running the ||pantheons||

[ebon copper]

i just have the letter permanently stuck on me, since i had it on since the beginning of the game, and got way too used to it

[burnt siren]

its not really as hard as youd think to adjust to losing a charm

[wary gust]

Why ||longnail over mark is it because of the notch cost?||

[burnt siren]

i think people get overly worried that itll feel awful

it really doesnt

[eternal zephyr]

That’s why I switched

[burnt siren]

i play with ||steady body|| a lot but im completely confident without it too

[ebon copper]

well i have done some ||binds||, so i know its feasable

[burnt siren]

||longnail|| is better when you dont have much room and want specific high cost damage charms too

which happens in bosses

[eternal zephyr]

Cause my current load out for the || pantheons|| has been ||sharp shadow, long nail, quick slash, and unbreakable strength||.

[ebon copper]

i somehow really hate ||sharp shadow|| tho

[burnt siren]

id generally say as you get to a higher level youll probably want to transition to using ||shaman stone||

[eternal zephyr]

Really? I’ve gotten so used to it that I can’t function without it

[stoic cedar]

FYI u r missing a ||notch||

[burnt siren]

also youre missing a ||charm otch||

DANG IT im 🐌

[burnt siren]

i made hating it my entire personality for a solid few months

[ebon copper]

i kinda hate ||shade dashing|| in general, i love parrying if possible

[burnt siren]

my username here is still marp which was at one point a reference to ||sharp shadow||

[ebon copper]

parrys feel heavenly when you get them consistently on some bosses

[burnt siren]

parries are really hard to get good at

ive heard some people are REALLY good at them

[ebon copper]

lol

[burnt siren]

but idk

tbh... just jump to dodge

[eternal zephyr]

I ran with ||shaman stone|| for the first two ||pantheons|| but as it got more difficult I started to just use soul only for focusing cause of how much I was getting hit, didn’t have anything left for spells

[burnt siren]

jumping is pretty fast

dodges most attacks

[ebon copper]

i never miss a parry on the bosses im confident in

[burnt siren]

gives you the high ground

considered playing nine sols?\

[eternal zephyr]

||Wait how many notches are there?||

[burnt siren]

its like hollow knight but parrying constantly

[burnt siren]

11

please use spoiler tags

[eternal zephyr]

What

Where!

[ebon copper]

i practiced the shit out of ||pure vessel||, so i can just casually spam him to death without worring of taking dmg

[burnt siren]

most people miss one in ||fog canyon||

[ebon copper]

same with ||hornet2||

[burnt siren]

theres also ||grimm||

[ebon copper]

||her parry is parryable||, and its the best feeling ever

[burnt siren]

its possible you missed ||grimm||

[burnt siren]

yeah thats a vibe

[eternal zephyr]

||The troupe leader?||

[somber hill]

yea

[burnt siren]

you didnt miss him

actually what am i saying

you have to kill him for ||p3||

[somber hill]

:3

[eternal zephyr]

I beat him a while back ||Nightmare King Grimm|| was well a nightmare

[somber hill]

Lol

[burnt siren]

yeah its pretty tough

[somber hill]

It’s a dance

[burnt siren]

hes not in ||p4|| tho for some reason

[burnt siren]

getoutofmyheadgetoutofmyheadgetoutofmyheadgetoutofmyheadgetoutofmyhead

[eternal zephyr]

||Isn’t he in p5?||

[somber hill]

[somber hill]

Yea

[burnt siren]

yea but ||p5 is not p4||

[somber hill]

[burnt siren]

hes the only boss excluded in the lower tiers

[eternal zephyr]

Not looking forward to getting my bit kicked there

[burnt siren]

besides the ||true final boss||

but uh shhh

[ebon copper]

||nkg is tough at 1st, but its so rythmic, if you get it on ascended, you are a couple of tries away from rad||

rlly good fight too

and also consistently parryable

only for 1 of his attacks tho

[wary gust]

||mantis lords are probably the most fun fight in hk||

[thin plover]

no

[ebon copper]

||pure vessel|| is

[eternal zephyr]

I found that last ||charm notch||

[wary gust]

||Pure vessel|| is up there but I feel like for the point of the game that ||mantis lords|| are at it’s a better experience

[wary gust]

Where

[eternal zephyr]

||Fog Canyon||

[wary gust]

There’s one in ||fog canyon…||

I had no idea

[eternal zephyr]

These boss aren’t prepared for my longer nail! ||I’m swapping out Longnail for Mark of Pride||

Truly the biggest game changer

[wary gust]

Absolutely going to be a game breaking change

[eternal zephyr]

Watch out ||Markoth||! I’ve got a longer nail with your name on it!

[wary gust]

I HATE ||markoth||

[languid haven]

same

[wild ravine]

fr fr

[eternal zephyr]

Good news ||Markoth|| didn’t stand a chance

Bad news, I choked on ||Pure Vessel|| again

[woeful thicket]

What is Voidheart edition

[eternal zephyr]

It was actually my best run yet

Isn’t that just the version with all the dlc included?

[woeful thicket]

Uh

I’m not exactly sure

But I’m new to the game so I’m not sure

I find him annoying but I don’t hate

[solid heart]

I'm sorry, but you're wrong

[somber hill]

Oh right I have no mind to think about feelings and no will to break about hate and no voice to cry suffering when I hate something my bad

[solid heart]

What's now, you don't hate ||primal aspids?||

[somber hill]

No

Just kill them

Smh

[languid haven]

try beating him ||radiant itemless all bindings|| and we'll see if you stand by your opinion

[solid heart]

Ofc, why didn't I think of that, I can do ||R5|| easily by not getting hit!

[somber hill]

Any boss is annoying at that point

[languid haven]

||gruzz mother:||

[somber hill]

That means no hit

[solid heart]

Yes

[somber hill]

Like literally they are so overrated

Just ||nart or spell them or just take ur time||

[solid heart]

Jokes aside, the fact that he can ||spawn nails in the perfect position for you to not notice or fall straight into it|| is dumb

[somber hill]

But yea from a meme perspective
I HATE THEM WTF SO ANNOYING WORST ENEMY IN THE GAME

[somber hill]

Oh sometimes that is annoying yea

But I don’t hate him cuz he has a relatively simple way to kill him

[languid haven]

||markoth hard mode: no walls||

[somber hill]

Especially in the ||pantheons||

[somber hill]

Asian mode: no platforms either

[languid haven]

the speedrun is insane

[solid heart]

Some guy did ||Radiant Markoth|| no walls, no platforms

[languid haven]

pogo

[somber hill]

Asian mode pretty much

Floor and walls are lava

[solid heart]

Asian mode requires an S rank too

[languid haven]

video?

[somber hill]

Was that moch or the ||markoth enjoyer||

[solid heart]

I don't know, I think Fireborn covered his channel, he was like THE ||Markoth|| guy some time ago

[somber hill]

Cuz ik moch does ||radiant bosses hitless floor is lava||

[languid haven]

okay

[somber hill]

Ok yea that dude

He did speedcube while beating that boss and he did both of them with the same single hand

And he also beat the boss with 1 finger only

🔹 An unnecessary spoiler is a spoiler (even a tagged one!) that was not directly requested by the user being helped, such as help referencing in-game content that the player has not necessarily reached - Charms build containing Charms they haven’t found, for example. These spoilers, though generally good-intentioned, can harm a player’s experience as any other spoiler would. Remember the game is non-linear; Always make sure to know what a player has and where they’ve reached. A simple screenshot of their map and inventory would tell you all you need to know.

how to unlock this guy

in ||god's home||

this guy is in between ||water kngith|| and ||marmu||

[jade sedge]

||Do you know any sanctuaries they could be dreaming in?||

[tepid meadow]

can you tell name of this guy from the list, i'll search his location on fandom wiki

[jade sedge]

That'll ruin the fun for you

[tepid meadow]

its alr

[stoic cedar]

the boss name is ||no eyes||

[tepid meadow]

thanks

[livid oar]

Which areas are mandatory, and which optional?

[stoic cedar]

mandatory for what

[livid oar]

For finishing the game

[stoic cedar]

||which ending r u going for?||

[livid oar]

The One without ||void heart||

[languid haven]

||howling cliffs (start)||, ||crossroads||, ||fungal wastes||, ||city of tears||, ||fog canyon||, ||deepnest||

[livid oar]

Ok thanks

[languid haven]

np

[languid haven]

wait, you also need ||resting grounds||

[livid oar]

Alr

[stoic cedar]

u also need to go to one of ||crystal peaks|| or ||royal waterways|| for an ability to reach ||monomon||

for a more casual route u would need both

[languid haven]

if we're being casual, you'd need ||greenpath|| too

[somber hill]

If we’re being casual then how do they know where they’re going

[tepid meadow]

what does this binding do

[fossil flower]

4 heart

[tepid meadow]

oh ok

thakns

[stoic cedar]

ull immediately notice what it does if u go into the ||pantheon||, but it just reduces your maximum amount of ||masks|| to 4

[tepid meadow]

i m having trouble with||hornet|| in this ||pantheon|| :/ even before i cheezed ||hornet|| im having no trouble with any other boss

[stoic cedar]

||what are u doing against hornet 2 currently? and also whats ur charm build||

[jade heart]

it makes your ||default masks 4, charms still increase||

[stoic cedar]

yep thats what i meant

[broken lagoon]

why does ||markoth|| exist

[stoic cedar]

yea hes annoying but u gotta play it patiently for safe hits, thats the safest way to beat him imo

[fossil flower]

I would say use ||greatslash|| and ||abyss shriek|| with ||shaman|| when possible

[stoic cedar]

||dash slash|| is also really good against him, if u r spaced correctly

[broken lagoon]

i dont use ||spell charms in pantheon 5||

i just spam ||great slash|| to deal with it

[fossil flower]

[fossil flower]

agreed

byebye

im going sleep now

the grimmchild is eeepy

[stoic cedar]

||spells are really good against markoth, but tbh in p5, markoth doesnt have as much health as it would have if u practice ascended markoth in hall of gods, so spamming narts should also work just fine. but if u ever go for radiant markoth i would suggest a spell build + nailmasters glory||

[broken lagoon]

i use this in ||p5||

idk what to use except ||sprintmaster|| so i just use that

[slim harness]

||grubsong?||

[stoic cedar]

this is a pretty good charm build, but i honestly would just replace ||heart and sprintmaster with shaman stone or mark of pride or smth like soul catcher + grubsong||. ||imo u dont really need 11 max hp if u r proficient enough at the bosses, i wouldnt mind trading 2 max hp for higher dps or higher soul gathering||

[broken lagoon]

will try that later ig

who in the fuck thought having ||zote|| after ||markoth|| is a good idea?

[stoic cedar]

good luck u got this

[broken lagoon]

didnt knew i got to the 3rd last fighting room till now

[livid shoal]

ebyaM

[stoic cedar]

yep, seems doable

[broken lagoon]

||massive moss charger|| is so cheesed with ||steady body n quick slash||

[livid shoal]

That is the only boss I'm bad at and I have no idea how, it is supposed to be the single most easiest boss in the game

[stoic cedar]

damn thats crazy

[livid shoal]

||I just dash under it when it jumps and pogo it when It doesn't, that's how I beat mossy||

[broken lagoon]

if u have ||quick slash and steady body|| at once

||when he runs at u, just walk forward and spam nail||

[stoic cedar]

||nah dont pogo, just swing at it and it dies easy||

[livid shoal]

Tried

[silent glade]

Just need to get the timing right ig

[stoic cedar]

here ill send a quick vid to show the timing, its pretty easy

[broken lagoon]

want me to show u a clip?

[stoic cedar]

(i need to launch the game first :| )

[broken lagoon]

of what i just did

[stoic cedar]

||u dont even need sbody to cheese it tbh||

[broken lagoon]

tru

[wicked rose]

Anyone knows how to ||radiant|| those two? They're so hard to do.

[stoic cedar]

||for grey prince zote, u just need to ddark spam him while keeping good spacing. and also kill the zotelings he spawns asap, u dont want them to pile up. for markoth, u want to play it more safely, use nail arts in phase 1 and then switch to spell spam in phase 2||

i can send my clears of them for ur reference

if u want

[wicked rose]

Sure, those two are unbelievably so difficult

[stoic cedar]

heres for gpz

heres for markoth

i show the charm build in the vid for each one if u want to use a similar charm build

[broken lagoon]

bro wtf

im supposed to do ||double hits with spells|| n shi

||no eyes spirit triple hitted me|| ;-;

what the uno bro

[wicked rose]

Been trying to nail arts to get to second phase. But I only got there every once in 10 tries or so lol

Oh wait you use heavy blow. Okay lemme try that

[broken lagoon]

||no eyes|| is SO inconsistent

[stoic cedar]

||yea nail arts are definitely the way to go, u just keep spamming nail arts for phase 1, then just go crazy with spells in second phase. ideally ull get a feel of when markoth is gonna transition to phase 2 and get under him for shrieks like i did in the reference vid, but if u dont get into position in time u will have to go for shade souls instead, and try to get double hits to maximize damage||

[stoic cedar]

||yes, heavy blow is very useful in giving urself space if markoth starts to get too close||

[wicked rose]

I see, gotta try more

I also noticed that you use the bottom platform for the most part. Does that help?

[stoic cedar]

||nail arts are best for no eyes imo, just charge up a nail art when u r further away from no eyes, and great slash when close. u can also use dash slash but thats more situational. spells are also amazing against no eyes, shade soul and abyss shriek in particular||

[stoic cedar]

||which platform u should be at entirely depends on where markoth is, u want to stay kinda close to him but not too close, and dont be directly in the path hes going to drift to. but the bottom platforms do have more space to stand on which is why i tend to be on the bottom ones more often||

[deft osprey]

hey ! where's the nearest bench to ||Colloseum of fools ?|| I'm willing to grind but if it has a long way back nuh uh

[stoic cedar]

||theres literally a bench in the coloseum||

[deft osprey]

oh LMAOOO

I was scared to enter

[wicked rose]

Got one close attempt but I got hit by the shield lol

[stoic cedar]

||yea the shield can be a real pain, u have to be on the lookout for the shield if markoth is near u and u want to go for a nail art. if the shield is about to swing down towards u, the best option would be to just back off and run away from markoth to regain a better position. but if the shield is spinning on the complete opposite side then a nail art is safe, given that u do it at a good timing when a sword isnt coming straight towards u||

||u can see in my reference vid that the great slashes i do r either when markoths shield is opposite of where i am, or if markoth is in the spinning shield attack||

[broken lagoon]

if i sit in ||pantheon bench||

and leave

willl i respawn there

or its only for healing

[stoic cedar]

||the benches within pantheons are only for healing and switching charm builds, u will not respawn there if u quit out of the game||

[broken lagoon]

dammit my electricity is out

i hope my invertor lives by

im at ||nkg||

nvbm i died

[acoustic sky]

||nkg. Can you figjt him alone in godhome alone or hes part of a gauntlet? I still dont care abiut the achievement but i kinda like the idea of the mucisian in dirthmouth.....zote aside. That reminds me not save him next time and kill the dream zote||

[tribal patrol]

Hi, someone knows if there is something to do in this particular spot ?

[proper frost]

||That exact spot? No.But further in this room yeah||

[proper frost]

||you can fight nkg if you banish,yes
You'll need to do a lot hog tho||

[tribal patrol]

Yeah just found it ahah thanks

[acoustic sky]

Oof. I want the ||hunters journal tho. I just read the wiki and it says it needs to die in dirtmouth. I was afraid of wiki spoilers. I forgot im done with the story. Lol. thank you||

[deft osprey]

how to get up there ?? it's the ||edge of the map so you can't go around right??||

[proper frost]

||you can,in fact,go around.||

[deft osprey]

how so?

[wicked rose]

TYSM FOR THE STRAT DUDE

[proper frost]

||its a shortcut to a different location||

[deft osprey]

hm... where can I go around from here?

[stoic cedar]

ggs!

[proper frost]

||it would help to see your inventory and map||

[wicked rose]

||Now to GPZ lol||

[proper frost]

Tags

[stoic cedar]

||gpz should be easier to radiant than markoth, ddark will be ur best option by far against gpz||

[wicked rose]

Oyea mb
