||last was when i got the 2400||
HAHAHAHA
||did you talk to her until she ascended?||
||SHE ASCENDS?!?!?||
im gonna go there rq
Yeah when you have 2500 essence i think
||no its 2400||
||Congrats now I'm here forever 111%||
spoiler ur message cause the people new to hollowknight might get spoiled
we dont awnt that
It's just completion percentage bruv but aight
yea but they stil might not know
guys
yea
||trying to find godhome?||
||do i need to discover the waterways more? I defeated dung defender, activated something with the lever.||
dunno whats that at the moment
lol its alr
shoot i actually dont know where to go either
||are you searching for dreamers?||
||i am trying to reach a point where I find the ability to reach the upper areas in the upper crystal peak. I also got isma's tear.||
||ancient basin, far LEFT I FORGOT MY LEFTS AND RIGHTS||
no but found 2
thats there?
||do i need to defeat the boss? i found at the far end?||
||do you have the crystal heart||
Yes
yeah
||He wouldn't get ishmas tear without it||
here
yeah, go to ||Basin||
||ancient basin is ur next place||
Good luck
ty for the help
for the other half of ||kingsoul|| i need to do the ||white palace|| right
Yeah
||Would it be smarter to try to beat p5 over and over till I win, get all bindings first or a whole new run without zote (I already have a other savefile without zote because I did a the 3 speed run achievements)||
Why you posting this here?
yes
what charms should i use for ||pure vessel||
||Sharp shadow is definitely needed||
is there a way to cheese ||gpz||?
||grey prince zote||
Oh unfortunately i don't think there is haha Good luck
||Much better to not cheese it i cheese traitor Lord and grimm before and when i reached pantheon I got cooked||
||if you don't save him in greenpath||
well he was actually quite easy nvm
i did it for the lore
well then no
Just my take, but ||I don't think the damage output of sharp shadow makes it worth it. I might actually switch it out for longnail, which will make it a bit easier to parry PV's triple slash.||
i suck at parrying tho
Prob too late but I would put ||mark of pride|| in there so you can ||parry|| his triple slash easily
You'll learn how to time it over time
Or you can ||double jump|| over him but I prefer ||parrying||
i never even try to parry stuff
Usually no, but ||parries|| work really well against this boss
bruh
If not, you can always ||double jump|| over him
im not copying that
what do u guys think i should do first ||delicate flower quest for last mask shard/p4/nightmare king grimm/bindings of p1-3||
||I would recommend binds for p1-3 other then charm to unlock the lifeblood room||
||Flower quest -> NKG -> P4 -> 12 total Bindings -> P5 I suggest||
||Is the Divine shop going to disappear when I defeat Nightmare Grimm?||
If you don't have them all yet no
thx I still have one more to go. soo expensive!1
do I need to complete the||Path of Pain to get 100%||?
im cooked...
For sure, but no worries!
thank you
well i think imma go do ||delicate flower quest|| now any tips?
||You can take trams, set a Dream Gate at the grey mansion, kill all enemies on your route until you reach the grave, Dream Gate back to the start, pick up the flower, and do the route with little to no enemies||
Trace it on your map. ||queens gardens, above the stag||
There’s a couple routes, depends on your preference, but I’d say experiment, and definitely use the above strategy.
so here
Correct
any charms that are recommended for this?
||Grimmchild, Defender's Crest, Longnail/Mark of Pride, and whatever else you want (these help with enemies that despawn when leaving the room and platforming)||
Also no bench until the quest is complete
Forgot to mention that
||practice and get all bosses on ascended, get 8 bindings ( p1 and p2 and even 12 from p3 if possible|| ||p5 will be easy then||
this is what im doing
||only boss left to defeat on ascended is absrad||
Same
||dont you need 16 bindings||
||8 to open, additions increase effects||
||you need 8 bindings to get 3 lifeblood at benches, 12 bindings increases the amount to 4, 16 makes it 5||
||the lifeblood door opens at 8||
looks good?
||grimchild not maxed, 😭 ||
||If you're used to Dashmaster, then sure||
||nkg|| is too hard :/
old image, || i have defeated absrad on attuned and gotten 4 more bosses on radiant||
||nkg|| isnt hard once you get its pattern, watch a yt video
any way i know which ones i havent encountered
2 ways
?
1st ||use save file analyzer||
2nd ||match every possible entry from wiki with your file||
1st is easier
aight
Someone got the best ||charm set|| for ||Radiance?||
aight
where do i get the save file
in file explorer
||quick slash, shaman, strength|| 2 ||notches should remain|| you can use ||heart if you think you will take damage, or use grubsong + uhh idk ||
tho i am crazy and i use ||sharp shadow||
win + r
appdata
locallow
teamcherry
hollowknight
I use that to fasten ||THK||
i use that cause i can't live without that extra 40% distance
and speed
i have gotten too used to that now
you can kill ||THK|| faster without using ||ss|| tho
I got ||sharp shadow, long nail, quick slash, shaman||
||you are missing 1 notch||
?

||grubsong||
||stop spoiling it||
nw King Eggs message doesnt make sense
not hard
this thing deserves every inch of its body to be burnt alive.
Spoiler alert
Np
||Any tips for Troupe Master Grimm?||
||enter the fight with shaman stone, heart, grubsong, soul eater|| ||hit him as soon as he bows ( you are a jerk) || ||go to center and start spamming abyss shriek|| if you have more than 8-9 hearts minimum, he should die
@civic pier
Anyways for the tips || try to close up on Him when he shoots the bats, try stay closer to the door when he does balloon and heal when he does the spikes from floor||
keep taking damage and spamming
I love yelling

wait bro is him
?
the guy
...?
||grimm||
bro is ||Grimm||
Best char to exist ngl
I traverse space and time 

uayay
wait i just realised you also need ||grimchild to start the fight|| so in total you would have 8 ||notches to choose your charms as you get 1 last notch from grim|| use these || shaman, grubsong, stalwart, soulcatcher/heart||
That being deserves to die
also make sure you got ||7 -8 hearts without the heart charm||
is it possible to open this?
The other fella wanted to beat ||Grimm||
Not Anymore if you opened it once already
uh sorry i wrote tips but mentioned wrong guy
lol
read chat
nvm i
will say again
I only have 7
||enter the fight with shaman stone, heart, grubsong, soul eater hit him as soon as he bows ( you are a jerk) go to center and start spamming abyss shriek if you have more than 8-9 hearts minimum, he should die
wait i just realised you also need grimchild to start the fight so in total you would have 8 notches to choose your charms as you get 1 last notch from grim use these shaman, grubsong, stalwart, soulcatcher/heart
||
||9 notches actually||
||it took me 24 tries to defeat him, after that about 3 hours grind to get him on radiant, how he feels easy||
||how you got 9, doesnt grimm give you 1 notch ? ||
and he gives you after you defeat him
How much you needed on the first one?
??
Before the ||dream|| level?
on regular ||grimm|| ?
||You got 3, 4 from Salubra, 1 from Collosseum and one from Fungal, so 9||
On regular 
||i cheesed him 😂 || never defeated him until i reached ||hall of gods||
i just kept playing ||nkg||
i have barely played regular
took me 4 tries to get him on ||radiant||

you are missing 1
there is 1 in ||fog canyon||
Yeah so that makes 10 total
What? I did not know that
see, i was right all along
🤷♂️
||Oh wait I thought you meant I only had 8 notches total||
||Im so silly, you meant after Grimmchild||
you need 2 for ||grimchild|| to start the fight
so
you got 8 for fighting
in the last clip u may see a certain outline
of the ||true final boss||
||i'm aware of the fact that this is not the ending, but the boss encapsulated so much emotion, a culmination of this entire journey led up to this point and i genuinely didn't think i'd reach this point so soon. i was so fucking sad but also astounded at the same time to catch whatever outline lied in the heat of the moment||
congrats, i just thought it was a cool easter egg that i had to point out incase u missed it
do we need all ||4 flames|| to ||banish the grimm troupe||
alright
||just talk with brumm||
Question ||i started the pantheons but don’t know what the bindings for do they get you something or just a challange?||
||enough unlocks lifeblood at benches but dont do it before ur good at pantheons cus they increase difficulty a lot||
that might of been my favorite fight in a game i've ever EVER experienced and i'm genuinely so glad and thankful i didn't have much spoiled it to me and that i had even experienced it
also idk whch clip ur referencing
some give me tips for ||p3 umu|| i lose too much health to it
||when you absorb all the infection from thk, at the very end before it goes black the final boss appears in the outline||
you can ||fireball|| on the ||flying jelly enemy|| and make it hit the boss instead of using your nail
get good
practice ||ascended version and aiming jellyfish||
i can easily beat normal ||nkg but not umu for some stupid ass reason||
i dont think i catched it in the video :(
Good thing, the tragedy of ||The Hollow Knight is so well written, but sad||
||Its very brief flash of light while ur focusing to consume the infection||
i know
the ending made me almost cry like genuinely
Wait for the ||true one||
please don't tell me it's ||radiance|| i've had it spoiled to me so much :/
i'm so pissed off about it wherever i went it was just it
if it's one of the ||endings|| like ||the hollow knight|| then i won't be too mad.
Wdym with that?
with how much i've had ||radiance|| spoiled to me i hope its not the ||true ending|| :/
But I mean, save your tears for ||what you know it's next :')||
I thought you ||just saw the name and her shape||
||But have you been spoiled for the ending itself or just the radiance?||
well that was it really.
nope
i hope its nothing cliche compared to the rest
Just the ||existence of a boss means nothing, dw||
I dont think you should hold any grievances until youve seen it for yourself
okay that gives me some hope and motivation to finish the game more
Go get the rest of the ||endings|| now
Like, ||if I just showed you false knight and his armor. Compared to showing the defenseless maggot||
OHH
okay
for ||
nkg||
Looks ok
Perhaps consider swapping ||Quick Focus out for Shamans Stone||
im having trouble with the second ||trial|| rn
Try to use ||nail arts|| if there's a place they flourish in it's here
hes the hardest ||non pantheon|| boss right?
doing that
Yes
Also ||spells are insane||, try to use them to keep your distance
i optimized my build for nail
Doesn't matter, ||2 shade souls can take out most enemies||
||strength, shaman ( shrieks when he does flame pillar), sharp shadow, heart||
Not enough ||notches||
and remaining 2 for the ||grimchild||
||enough, i did calculation||
Recount then
If you don't use ||sharp shadow|| if you're not used to it already
aah yea 1 extra
aaah crap
...||nkg||
||shape of unn is particularly effective against flame pillars, iirc quick slash doesn't help much.||
||so strength, shaman, sharpshadow, grimm, wayward compass 🔥 ||
you mean against those flying bats ?
I'd say ||mop|| you're right about ||qs if you're not skilled enough||, but I think there are enough windows to not use ||Unn|| and bring more value instead
The distance helps a lot
i mean i think it can sometimes work against those (haven't tried it much), but i was referring to the one where ||it spawns a flame pillar directly on your location 4 times in a row||
Against ||bats you can just jump over the first an heal lol, no charm needed||
The second just goes straight over your head
||So Grimm is beating my ass so can i have some help with picking out some charms and also dodging that annoying flying leap he does||
||I happen to have a mod installed that rebalances some charms notch costs so ill tell the new notch costs if needed||
i think most of those windows are risky if you aren't as good at the game - good luck healing on the ||swipe uppercut thing|| if you aren't already familiar with the spacing. the other window that comes to mind is the one right at the end of ||flame pillars itemless||, which also involves spacing yourself quite close to it but where you know it won't hit you because you're familiar with it.
I mean, there are 3 easy ones
||Up to 4 during a stagger
1 during bats
1 during pillars||
They require up to no skill except knowing they exist
-# is the ||unnless pillars|| one only tight in my mind because i only bothered with it on itemless -> ||dashless||?
Probably lol
With ||dash|| it's way easier
I mean, I'm sad || Unn|| is bad, I want to be good, it's very fun and creative
as for ||bats|| i'm not familiar with that one
Jump over the first one, heal
That's it
The second one goes straight over your head
I've been trying NKG without moving, and this run was soo close, my best ever and only 3rd pufferfish yet. Left him at 44 hp.
I'll eventually do a finished run.
Also, I activated full soul entry with Godseeker+ since this challenge is already RNG enough, and getting early pillars/spikes is a run killer, and I still lose enough runs early as it i...
uh... i still disagree. it was never going to be good in a hitless challenge, and so also for top level runs. that is a fundamental part of its design as a ||healing charm||, but for those who aren't top level players yet the extra breathing room and consistency it gives is immensely valuable. carried me through my first ||p5|| clear, and i still use it so that i can play more aggressively with the ability to easily fix my mistakes.
-# although i used it in my first hitless ||mantis lords|| clear to more consistently dodge the ||2 short throw scythes|| because i forgot you could just ... leave the center and not risk it.
By nature ||healing charms suck|| late because healing becomes less important and less difficult with skill. The only one that still stands out is ||quick focus|| because it's the best by far. For lower level you can get a lot of ||charms|| to be usable, but you could still get more from others
||i got fucking rekt by nightmare king grimm in like 5 secs||
||do i need to have grimmchild equipped so i can fight nightmare king grimm or not||
send a screenshot
spoiler it tho
Check what happens
imo going ||heal charms > dps charms|| is a way to increase reliability that i think gets overshadowed because people go speedrunner brain and just want to dps check the boss rather than be able to reliably survive an extended period of time against it.
ion got time
im legit boutta hop off
thats why im asking
It's a lever
||oh yea that unlocks a door that u couldnt access before||
Check the ||elevator in the middle above the bench||
Did you see the clip?
yes
still think you need to be familiar enough to know you properly baited it up, as i know that was a huge issue i had with itemless ||regular grimm||
-> also risky unless you know what you're doing imo
||Where Grimm go? Did I not defeat NMG?||
actually you need to ||finish the credits|| but
Not really, all you need to do is a full jump
u dont gotta spoiler it fr
i hate it when i get progressively worse at bosses
lmao
fr
||i js got a diff ending than what i previously got, hornet helped me beat the hollow knight this time and got sealed in the black egg with me||
||Was there an achievement for defeating Nightmare King Grim?||
how many ||endings|| did u get so far
idk
yes
||its called ritual i think||
2 i think
how many times did the credits roll
||the normal one where u beat the hollow knight by urself and u get sealed alone, and the one where u and hornet get sealed||
||3 times, i beat the hollow knight twice on the first ending cuz i js wanted to, so i think i only got 2 endings||
Thx! I realised it was actived during a mod multiplayer game i was in. Which is confusing. :/
I didn't had Grim at that time.
Yeah, ||sealed siblings||
Well, did you see the particles that were coming out of ||THK when Hornet had them down?||
||you can get another by looking closesly about what hornet is helping you do||
you still have to finish her shop
I keep using different ||Charm|| combinations and constantly just ||Scream|| at ||Radiance|| but I just cant beat ||her||
you'll slowly but surely learn
Try to lure them around you
Yeah I got to ||The top of the climbing thing|| and I'm pretty sure that is the last one but those ||Orb things (just like soul master)|| are so annoying||
move the direction opposite to them
That usually causes me to go into a spike
You know you can kill spikes with ||descending dark|| right?
I didnt
That is a good one to remember
well, now you know
-# i've also done that with ||shade cloak|| a time or two but that one is super inconsistent and i can't figure out how it works
That probably makes it way easier to hit ||her|| constantly with ||Scream thing||
Imma try
You can't...
i have all ||unbreakables|| already
It was something else
||Shade cloak doesn't give iframes, it just removes your hitbox for stuff other than hazards||
They disappear when you collide with them
unless some super weird quirk
Is ||Soul catcher, spell twister, longnail and hiveblood|| a good ||charm|| combination
how many do i need for achievement
not ||hiveblood||
too expensive for almost no value
specially during double damage fights
You should already have the ||keen hunter one||
Should I use ||quick slash and nail masters glory||?
depends how many ||notches|| you currently have and what your situation is
10
And i have all ||Charm||
during my time with 10 i would regularly use ||quick slash||, ||unbreakable strength||, ||shaman stone|| and ||grubsong||, although ||steady body|| is also a good replacement for the latter
||nail arts are bad for absrad because of the stall, quick slash helps so much during plats||
I'll try
||SB won't do much against her if you don't do face dance, which is a hard strat||
But for all other purposes yes please
are we talking about ||regular radiance|| or ||absrad|| though
||Face dance||? Is that just ||pogoing on her||?
Regular
That, but way harder
oh i used ||grubsong|| in that case then
You balance ||pogos, wings, turnarounds and upslashes to stay at all times inside her face and never stop attacking||
although i would recommend you just get the ||notch|| from ||grimm||, since his fight took me 30 seconds
I can't best him either
Beat* but best also works ig
could have been maybe misjudging iframes from something else. trying to find the clip that i thought i made but im not sure where it is
the trick is ||just spam shriek on him while have shaman stone, spell twister and you should maybe also use some lifeblood to just tank the damage||
oh and ||attack him while he is bowing||
you'll want to do this in ||his pufferfish form||
||Grimm|| time ig
K
and ||attacking him while he bows sends you straight to that attack||
but for clarification, i beat ||radiance|| with just 10 ||notches||, so its very doable
Yeah that I realized because I used to try ||screaming||
in case you dont want to go for ||grimm|| yet
That's the description, if you want to see it in action watch any video by a pro, a modded version or a TAS, it looks satisfying
-# i do have the clip from a while back where i somehow got a ||sword from sword burst|| to stick around to the next run ... i have no idea how that one happened, i had given up so i was doing funny pogos until i died
Yeah, I have got that too
you're aware of the funny ||cyclone scream|| interaction, right?
I forgot I needed ||Grimmchild||
oh and @buoyant flame if youd like to know what i did during ||radiance||: ||during phase 1 just slash her with the nail to build up soul, during phase 2 use shriek on her whenever you can, during phase 3 slash to build up soul, between phases 3 and 4 heal up, during phase 4 just try not to die and during phase 5 you go up||
that has happened to me 4 times
it can happen both right and left side too
I don't suggest you use ||shriek during rain, it's not hard to hit her and you can save your soul||
hang on, found it but it was paused at the start of the clip so it doesn't give too much info other than that i was at full health...
Ioh wait no
and ||shriek|| locks you in place for a brief second
||5 phases?||
Huh
definitions may vary
more like 4 tbf
ppl differentiate between when there are s||pikes in the ground and when there arent||...
hence the +1
She has 2 phases, the first one has 3 subphaces while the last one has 2
if you wanna, you can even call it 6 ig
So depending on what people see as a big jump they'll call it a normal phase
yeah i said during ||phase 2||
i just refer to all of them by a name to avoid ambiguity
yeah, ||you can tell because phase 1 has no special thing, phase 2 has half of the arena covered by spikes at any time, phase 3 she only uses the sword rain attack and there are spikes on the edges of the platform, phase 4 you fight her in multiple tiny platforms and phase 5 you just go up||
also congrats!
congrats
I was thinking: ||With the floor = phase 1, with no floor = phase 2 and the climb = phase 3||
good old number ambiguity
-# ||charm notch acquired...||
thats correct
imo at least
there's also the variant of 4: ||base, sword rain, plats, climb||
Ew, the ||Grimmchild|| looks ugly now
?
this is why i would recommend referring to them by names. i tend to use: ||base, spike floor, sword rain, plats, climb, peak||
||TMG -> grimmchild 3 i think, not grimmchild 4 yet. charm level 3 is a little more unsettling than the rest iirc||
Yeah, it can all be seen with the subphases
im super lost right now. i've been wandering the map for 2 hours to no avail, i don't know who to seek out next, except for somebody called ||the pale king||, i've explored pretty much the entire map all over and i need some guidance
guys...
i am at a point where everything i can do is pain
You want a hint?: ||finish the seer quest||
What is this?
ahh, makes sense
ah yes, precicely the one i expected
the what quest, i don't think i got that at all

how much ||essence|| have you collected?
The|| moth that gave you the dream nail||
I am scared of ||The fact that Grimm mentioned: next dance||
oh yeah dont worry about that one
not very hard at all trust
I don't trust
-# should one issue a warning about ||unbreakable charms||? i don't know.
okay so im assuming you have gotten ||the main ending, which is to just defeat the hollow knight||, right?
Keep g||etting essence, what I said, finish the seer quest||
||defeated mantis lords, broken vessel, crystal guardian, dung defender today, got butterfly wings and now i am at hallownest crown.||
yup
now you really just have to keep getting ||essence||, which you can get from fighting ||dream warriors|| or ||dream bosses||
that's good to know i beat the game the intended route now
||i fought all the dream warriors btw||
no idea what the latter are tho
Pay a visit to ||Broken Vessel||
You'll see from there
Yknow old bosses you beat like ||false knight, and soul master? They get new variants. Revisit them||
||if you go back to a bunch of the bosses you've fought, for example broken vessel or soul master, you can fight dream versions of them, which are quite harder and award you with essence||
After that remember some old friends who left their corpse behind after their defeat
but also looking at your inventory there are quite a lot of things you can do
||elder Hu|| best boss
such as ||upgrade nail||, ||sell your relics||, ||get shade soul||
Most Boring boss you mean
i hate that mfer
Nah best boss
Boring
When he flew side to side I felt that
have you fought ||hornet in kingdom's edge|| yet @thick wing?
mhm i did
She has ||king's brand and shade cloak||
Look at inv
oh
hes such a waste of time tho, it just annoys the shit outta me when he goes off screen
There is one missing from that
okay so you could also get ||abyss shriek||, on top of these ones
uhm guys?
how do you guys recommend doing ||bindings||?
yeah there's ||markoth||
Everyone’s favorite
idfk what that is but ill discover it dont keep telling me what i can or cant unlock at this current stage all i need is some slight and vague directions
i mean, just practice in ||hog|| for them
so pretty much just ||collect more essence|| then
thank you
||Why does Brumm want to stop it||?
no i mean like all at once? one at a time?
and then return to ||seer||
for ||shell binding do ascended, for soul, just refrain from using soul, and for charm just do them charmless||
one at a time
To help with the last||pantheon||, yes
A total of 12 of them should be enough
no point in hurrying if you wont end up reaching the goal
Bill and Ted’s excellent adventure is very spoilery my bad
any charms i should be using
||Shaman Stone||
Lol
btw, not everybody shares my opinion, but i think the last ||2 lifebloods|| are in general worse to get than|| p5||, so i dont think you should go for them, but depends on what you want ofc
We are friends now
Bruh, ||Wayward Compass ain't Wayward Compassing||
||It shows me in Distant Village but I'm in City Of Tears.||
||AB time
||
I think the last one is, the fourth I believe is the same difficulty
i died to the ||massive moss charger|| 😭
||ab1-2|| are fine, 3 and 4 re what hunts my dreams
Yeah, that's||AB for you||
||P5AB||...
if its the same difficulty as what you are trying to get it for...
amen
I cant go through ||ab 2|| beacuse of those damn ||obloobes|| 
Such stinkies
Strenght of the ||compass|| is so strong it itself cant control it
||P5AB|| is still kicking my butt. I'm only able to put in a few attempts per week so I keep coming back rusty on some bosses.
FUNNNNNN

god i hate this already
||Which Pantheon?||
I went to ||City of Tears|| to get ||one of those flames for Grimm|| and forgot to get it 
Real
1 cuz i suck 🙃
||failed champion|| is one of the hardest ones
and im still getting destroyed :D
me when everyday
2 is easier
aight bet
.....
fuck off
keep getting combo'd by this dipshit left and right this is the same exact thing as ||watcher knights||
It's okay
cant even go on youtube now without having hk spoiled to me wow alright that helps a ton with my current state of mind
finally
you might want to try another ||dream boss||
no i'm gonna get this over with when im feeling better first before any other of those bosses
im gonna go and take a shower, get some schoolwork done and just rest my mind for a bit,
Congrats!!
all i can do is thank team cherry for making this peak
i gotta get rid of this "all or nothing" mentality 😭
oh okay, good luck next time!
well uh
Are you wanting to get ||all Bindings|| or just trying to unlock the door?
what strategy do yall recommend for ||bindings||?
-# ||Grimm wake up please, I don't want to fight your nightmare version...||
the benefits ig
real
1-2 at a time, do the first two ||Pantheons||
which ones do i use certain charms what do i do idk
I hate the attack with ||things flying out of his cloak|| already
im struggling anyways
i think fighting ||radiance|| would be currently easier for you than fighting ||nkg||
Oh ok I'll do that
you can use a two ||notch|| charm now too
i feel like nail would be the easiest
||For Nail, use Strength. For Shell, use health charms like Heart and Lifeblood stuff. For Soul, try to rely more on Nail damage and cast a Spell whenever you have the Soul for it.||
Correct
||P1 AB and P2 AB (not at the same time) are best for unlocking the door||
how should i start
||P2 Nail, P1 Nail, P2 Shell, P1 Shell, then Charms and Soul for P1 and P2||
I personally find ||Soul Binding|| to be harder than ||Charms Binding||, but that depends on your playstyle
Easiest to hardest
||if you have a soul binding then that limits the charms you wanna use anyway||
Wait what were the best ||Radiance Charms||?
depends on what build you wanna go with, ||nail or spell||
||Spell||
Yeah I do
do you have all charms?
can you show your inventory
also show your charms
he has all charms
the question was ||spell build for radiance||
What is the max amount of masks?
||9||
So 1 more
yes
like without any charms or buffs
spoiler ||9||
And ||3 more shards||
oki
also spoil ||3 more shards||
sorry, just the rules
||On Markoth in P5 wish me luck||
youll need it
Gl
shit wrong message
How's the run?
I wish you luck on that one and most importantly on the next one
someone told me to change my charm setup but to what
this bot is crazy annoying istg
yk i have to give it to the mods thats like incredibly
it could do with an actual name tho wth is k00
||can i beat second hornet fight with these stats? As a beginner!||
||Second phase Markoth rn||
have you tried the boss first?
||i woudl use quick slash and shaman stone||
||Take off Compass and Swarm for now||
yeah ||quickslash, grubsong and shamans|| are your best bet
looking at it, you aren't particularly lacking (esp considering you have gotten ||several nail upgrades||), although i do agree that using ||compass and swarm|| is unnecessary for that point as you can just put then back on when you're done.
i cant beat her omg
you can always come back
way to long of a way
||Hornet Sentinel is a late game boss||
how many ||masks|| are you at?
7
alright, that's a fair enough number
you seem to be still in mid game when it comes to what you have in your inventory
where should i go
i think that what they have is good enough and they could probably get it with practice. what notable are they missing?
I mean, you can do it
i really want the ||shade dash||
It's not too hard
-# you do realize that ||hornet 2|| is a requirement for that, right?
try ||crystal peaks|| there is a really strong upgrade there you dont have
which one
i grabbed the ||pale ore||
I agree
i did
ya
it gets you invicibility frames
and also a buttload of damage
that should also destroy the spikes from || hornet?||
it gives you a huge amount of ||iframes|| in exchange for only doing the damage of about ||2 shade souls||. oh wait that's a lot.
you can do that with ||shade soul|| but I get what you mean
plus, ||the upgraded dive with shamans is broken||
yeah but like you dont waste a whole ||spell|| then. I normaly insta nail the spikes as soon as they spawn
-# a good rule of thumb on ||spell|| damage is that ||side=1, down=2, up=3, assuming that all hits land. there's some variance depending on gear.||
if all hits land then thats ||60 damage on the boss||
duh
bruh
bahahaha
eatr
oh this is wonderful
what even are the spoils for || eater || is it || soul eater?! haha ||
its a charm so it has to be spoiled
yeah but just the second word
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaater
speak the name of the game
acronyms are also spoilers
when talking about ||wayward compass|| people usually only say ||compass|| so it needs a spoiler
Guys stop trying to find loopholes and just accept it
its just funny
eat something
it doesn't belong in this channel
senf doesnt belong to this channel. its a food
sry
oh senf doesnt exist in the english vocabular
my bad
Alright back to helping
?
Just beat him
congrats 
||Only have 2 Masks into GPZ, tho....||
youll be fine

Hope so
i need to upgrade my reflexes for the fight with the ||sun||
do you have a question or?
try beating sans from undertale. good practice for me atleast
|| they are kinda similar ||
what is my go-to method to beat it?
just dodge?
what build are you going with? ||nail or spell||
mixed
Just died
to be honest, one of the hardest parts about the fight is just getting to the fight
|| patience is important, also look for healing windows there are 2 when I remember correctly ||
beat ||THK||? naah he easy
yeah, between phase 1 and 2, then 2 and 3
|| when the spikes come look above if you dont have to move. Thats Healing oppertunity||
hate it that he hits two damage
the good thing is, your ||healed to full when you enter the Radiance arena||
true
yeah so you can spare ||soul|| for the fight.
do you know if you have all charms?
its kinda hard to explain stuff if we dont know what you have
we dont want to spoil any late game items
if i tell my current set, would that help?
yes
ideally you'd have everything in the game before fighting ||radiance||
||sharp shadow, grubsong, quickslash,longnail,shaman||
get rid of ||sharp shadow. Radiance is in the air for the majority of the fight so it isnt worth||
you could also send screenshots of your inventory and charm menus
And abuse the ||dive||
also, switch ||longnail for MoP. it has a longer range||
Does the ||Grey Mourner|| have ||infinite Delicate Flowers||?
yes
For some reason
oh no, this one of a kind artifact got destroyed, let me get you another one
You almost done typing?
I could imagine she has a vine of ||delicate flowers|| behind her as she says that
Was busy
Yeah lol
||there's only her nail bro||
I made it to ||Dirtmouth|| with he ||flower||.
Prob in a basement or to the side
give it to grandpa
give it to ||elderbug||
I did
the mistery deepens 🤔
That is why I brought it there
i think she produces them through sheer will strength
did you know, there are ||6 people or places who have unique dialogue if you have the flower, but only 4 of them will actually take it||
I wonder what ||the Grey Mourner|| will say now.
you gave it away?!
Oh nothing special
To grandpa, yes
yes except: you have done the ||quest ||
You can get ||infinite flowers than at the goal destination.||
||elderbug, oro, traitor's child, godseeker, emilia and white lady?||
Who else will take it?
Oh wait
2 of those don't ig
||white lady 😡 ||
the last two
||Emilitia's got her own flowers||
||For the true hunter achievement, do I have to complete the entry and get the notes or do I only have to kill each enemy once?||
||Kill once is keen hunter iirc, while true hunter is all notes||
Thanks
Yessss I got it
you guys got any tips for ||failed champion||?
Always be attentive. The minute you stop paying attention, wham
it can, in fact, be ~cheesed if you have max gear
severe case of mind disassembling the moment i get hit then combos ensue
legit
cheese makes beating the boss feel quite unfulfilling and i'm trying to experience the game at its core as intended during my very first playthrough at the very minimum
Alr, equip ||dreamwielder|| you can get a ton of ||soul from the staggers||
also even heal
just make sure to hit him every heal
no idea what those are but i'm pretty sure that makes the ||dream nail|| fire faster
It’s also good to learn patterns. ||Try to differentiate his jumps. When he swings, he holds the club over his head, and when he doesn’t, he usually jumps back, and holds his weapon to his chest. Almost every time he doesn’t swing in a jump, he will smash the ground. The more you fight him, the more you get a good flow of the fight.||
shroomeright
I also try to stay close to him, but just out of reach of his attacks
i already adapted to that
the meteors overwhelm me
🤔 iirc i usually don't find them to be an issue when i dodge under
idk
shockwave slam
Yeah. I haven’t had too much issue dodging them
It even hits me
And hey, only one mask down instead of two
oh that one ... i suppose i usually jump straight up and occasionally move to the side
i see why one of my friends kept laughing whenever i mentioned HER.
how?
based on the fact you said 4.5k, that sounds about optimal to me
Alright tell us
deposit geo?
4.5k (so i have a backup)
she disappears.
HAHAHA
fuck you.
Yeah, I play agressive, normal isn't an issue because of cheese, but whith ||Ab or n0ws you gota play legit, and I get hit all the time to rocks when dodging that attack, never the shockwave||
Oh not like that
Do you remember a ghostly butterfly friend?
that sings
go to the ||hot spring building in city of tears||
not really im not complaining i lost the geo outside the fact i could've gotten more than a ||mask shard|| via the fountain if i had more geo probably
asnwer my question, do you remember her or you haven't seen her
i remember her when she was there in ||fog canyon|| in her bank that's it.
just asking but im struggling on ||radiances|| any charms i should use or just like tips? :)
not her
her
aw
-# for future reference, optimal ||deposits|| are either|| 0-2.5k or all 4.5k||
Does ||hornet|| say anything if you try to give her the ||flower||
yea idk
Remember the big room in ||City of tears with a ton of doors?, one was locked with a simple key, the butterfly friend is there, visit her, she really likes an audience (:||
And you also get to see an example of karma
||i killed her by accident
||
I did it on purpose
me too 😭
the two sides of the hk communty
||It's the saddest death||
i forget that most people, in fact, didn't already know that before buying the game
I killed the ||nailsmith on purpose||
I didn’t kill them at all
I only did it for the achievment
every attempt on ||failed champion|| be like
start hopeful
get hit once
get comboed
give up

I killed her with glee worth it
OH i know a good cheese for him
||I killed the nailsmith with glee||
Equip || nail combo and dream weiilder when he staggers go behind him dream nail him get ho countine the process and make sure after u fill everything up attack him and repeat you will kill him in no time||
I killed him wirh || spell so he couldn’t feel the strike of pure nail||
Ok, I can't beat you :(
Yea
i dont wanna cheese the boss what is up with you guys just wanting to cheese everything 😭
Uhm it’s not actually a cheese
i get it the boss is hard lemme feel good about beating him when i actually do it legit 😭
It’s legit?
Ur just using games mechanic
I used cheese strats once or twice and didnt feel good about it at all
I regret using them
Good luck fighting him on || radiant||
He wasnt that hard for me
Just upgraded attacks
And faster
thanks for the spoilers
you replied to me
Whats that unc command again
Wait fr?
that is a clear incentive to click on the spoiler as it contains something of help and value to me i would logically think
like this is the same shit as replying to somebody with a spoiler containing the full ending of the game in detail when they're trying to get help with something else 😭
its a major spoiler
Its "?tag uncspoilers"
i mean atleast i have something to look forward to after getting to whatever the game's ||ending|| might be then ig
Ohh
Mate
Just a quick warning 😄
Dont.
It's very fun tho
It is
btw if you're struggling with ||failed champion|| you could try another ||dream boss||
I personally think he is the easiest
i had a much easier time with ||lost kin||
Or || soul tyrant||
Meh
If you know the strat he's easy
Just need a || area coverage charm and he is cooked||
Like || defender crest or shroom charm ke even a pet to dmg ballons||
Ah yes one of the contenders for the last one ill be able to beat <3
i mean my ||failed champion|| strat was just ||spam abyss shriek like a madman and then heal when he was stagged by nailing his asss and dream nailing||
Fr
still think ||lost kin|| was easier
yeah okay cool
But if you’re cool like almost all players here who have no life do it

Id say dont take any opinion related things to heart
Play at ur own pace and enjoy the game the way you like
I just realized
yeah would've been fun if i didn't run into game spoils everywhere i went where now i'm forcing myself to rush the game because of spoilers
I spent 154 hours of my life playing hk
only 154?
On my main save file
The wiki always exists
The wiki is very much full of spoilers everywhere
I wouldnt recommend it for someone trying specifically to avoid them
||I don't like both, they're just faster, have more attack range and WAY more hp. White def is the perfect exemple of interesting harder version.||
that's why you don't use it unless you're playing some game like terraria
If you dont want spoilers this bad why you joined a server full of people who completed the game
the whole point of this channel is to help newer people
Theres a reason this channel has such strict rules on spoilers
you could also just not click on spoilers
But cmon
