[harsh cairn]

Never

[thick wing]

oh...

[glad lava]

We do know quite a lot about him, he’s not a total mystery

Or we infer quite a lot about him at least

[thick wing]

for a figure referenced so much in the game i figured he'd hold as much importance as ||the hollow knight||

[glad lava]

lots of very important characters are never fought

[solid heart]

Well, he's dead, you saw it

But he's one of the most important in the overarching plot

[glad lava]

they might not have seen it

[solid heart]

She did

[harsh cairn]

She has ||void heart ||

[bright sorrel]

🙀 wait i missed a ||quickslash|| discussion

[thick wing]

||don't tell me that it was his corpse that held the rest of the heart||

[solid heart]

Yes?

[glad lava]

||heart||?

[solid heart]

Did you not notice? Lmao

[solid heart]

Yes you did ||https://media.discordapp.net/stickers/1340392750385729580.png?size=160||

[harsh cairn]

One very interesting and extensive discussion

[bright sorrel]

looks evil

[solid heart]

Who are you?!

Anika would never call Ponder evil

[bright sorrel]

the discussion, not the cat

[solid heart]

Excuses, excuses

[glad lava]

my ponder got spoiled wtf

[acoustic sigil]

[thick wing]

i thought it was an ancient statue of his
makes sense it was so difficult to even reach that place, for a ||king|| so grandiose it makes sense there'd be a deadly course before you can even reach him

[bright sorrel]

🐊 46% not 32

[solid heart]

Yeah, dyrati corrected me

I forgot it's inversely proportional

[bright sorrel]

[solid heart]

[solid heart]

Don't you have a emoji?

[bright sorrel]

not this time

[solid heart]

Better get it

[thick wing]

gg.

gg.

it's over

[drowsy yarrow]

GG

[pallid vale]

GG

[thick wing]

new spoilers yay

thanksssssssssss

[drowsy yarrow]

Not necessarily, you never know if people are talking about modded bosses

[thick wing]

i assume it's time for ||godhome and the pantheons|| now

[thick wing]

mhm

[drowsy yarrow]

But yeah I would definitely be wary of ||godhome spoilers||. There's a lot of accidents in this channel.

[thick wing]

i already tried a shot at ||the pantheons||, i'm not sure what else can be spoiled

[drowsy yarrow]

There's a fair bit

you'll love it I'm sure

[thick wing]

okay, i can't help but feel sad now after obtaining the ||true ending||

[solid heart]

Why? It's the best

[thick wing]

no because that's it, that's the ||true ending||, there's no more, that's the climax

[bright sorrel]

[mystic arch]

what's this?

[solid heart]

Just do the ||pantheons :)||

[drowsy yarrow]

If you thought it was about the same when it was only a ||32% increase in speed||, imagine how good it is actually being a ||64% increase||

[solid heart]

Turnarounds skill removes the disadvantages it has anyways lol

[drowsy yarrow]

Yeah, I want to learn that

[solid heart]

46% I get, it's better yes, but they are in the same league, all above the rest lol

[solid heart]

I can get it semi consistently, it's involuntary, but I still fumble it lol

||in absrad it's free tho||

[acoustic sigil]

Some lore place

[bright sorrel]

[drowsy yarrow]

I still think 46% catapults it into its own "super S tier" league because it is essentially both effects at the cost of being slightly less than 50% and harder to use

But that's debatable ofc

[solid heart]

Yes, the ghost S+ tier has the 3 charms, and it's easy to argue it goes on top

[thick wing]

tomorrow, atleast the first one

i wonder what the 4 others are like

are they just the same bosses but they're reworked?

[drowsy yarrow]

You'll see 😉

[thick wing]

or are there gonna be new ones

[drowsy yarrow]

there might be some new ones

[thick wing]

i played hk for 9 hours today oh my god

that's bad

[pallid vale]

thats good!

[thick wing]

i mean tbf yeah i did go outside like twice surprisingly

[pallid vale]

thats even better

[thick wing]

i think i did all the base bosses in the game now

excluding ||warriors, dreamers, dream bosses, and whatever lies behind pantheons|| ofc

[pallid vale]

thats pretty good

[thick wing]

idk i'm just unsure, i found an area that ||showed each boss on somewhat of a pedestal|| where you had the option to ||fight them in 2 modes|| and found a decent bit of ones that were yet to be defeated before reaching the top row which ||subsequently had "await me at the end of __ pantheon|| smth like that

[solid heart]

You can actually see, go below the ||pantheons||, there's a door

[sleek rapids]

And I thought I played too much with 6 hours

[thick wing]

i played terraria for 14 hours once

[sleek rapids]

DAMN

[hoary anvil]

||~75%* 🧠 ||

[solid heart]

Ah you found it, check the lore tablet in the entrance

[thick wing]

it was a phase that MIGHT come back once i'm done with my regional midterms this year

[sleek rapids]

8 hours in terraria once for me

[thick wing]

idk idk you never know

[thick wing]

it's a great game

[hoary anvil]

👀 terraria gaming

it's been a while

[thick wing]

i made lots of memories from it

[sleek rapids]

Yeah

[thick wing]

i got almost 800 HOURS

on the game

EIGHT. HUNDRED.

[pallid vale]

oh wow

[sleek rapids]

...I have 95

[hoary anvil]

my sum of player hours does ... not match the steam hours lol

[sleek rapids]

And we should prob change topic or else we get warned

[thick wing]

#off-topic?

[sleek rapids]

Sure

[solid heart]

How

That's the amount I have

[thick wing]

i like the game a bit too much
i got 600 hours on ultrakill though i cant play it anymore because i my mouse broke which's how i decided to get hk LMFAOO

[solid heart]

Oh wait Terraria, duh

I thought HK lol

[sleek rapids]

To #off-topic !

[hoary anvil]

realizing i never sent any messages in #off-topic before

[solid heart]

My cousin has 1.3k in Tmod loader, but yes, this belongs there

[solid heart]

I did once lol

[thick wing]

same

i'm still kinda new in this server still so whatever

1.2k msgs tho

alright alright offtopic blawg

[solid heart]

I thought you meant 800 hours in HK lol, Terraria makes more sense

I do have 800 in HK

[sleek rapids]

I have 180 still

Cuz Im still kinda new

[harsh cairn]

Damn i only have like

50h

100 total cus my first play through was on switch

And that was also about 50

[solid heart]

What ||pantheons have you done?||

[buoyant flame]

Is ||Midwife|| a ||journal entry||?

[runic belfry]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[stiff field]

rantheon

[harsh cairn]

X)

[solid heart]

||radiant||

I think you can now see why I have 800h lol

[stiff field]

how did you take two hits on ||radiant||

[harsh cairn]

Ok yeah makes sense

[acoustic sigil]

They are going for 0 but their best is 2

[solid heart]

The complete thing should be ||R5, 2 hits PB but it doesn't fit||

[stiff field]

ooooohhhh

[drowsy yarrow]

I'm close

just 71 hits to go

[acoustic sigil]

Banger username tbh

[halcyon girder]

Where can i find the boos for || jumping over the wall ||

Boss*

[runic belfry]

|| how do i get to godhome?||

[shut sparrow]

||there is no boss that gives you the ability to jump over walls||

[halcyon girder]

So how i get it?

[runic belfry]

i was told it was here but i cant open the wall

[shut sparrow]

||you open that wall from the other side so you'll have to go below and around||

[runic belfry]

🔹 Ensure Discord’s spoiler tagging is used around spoilers (People, Places, and Things should be spoiler tagged!! if you are confused, please see the pins for what is allowed ).
We do this to be considerate of multiple conversations taking place. Two vertical bars on either side of text will tag it as a spoiler - ||This is a spoiler.|| > ||This is a spoiler.|| Alternatively, adding /spoiler at the start of a message will tag it.

🔹 If you have sent an untagged message, you must either edit it to include spoiler tags or delete it.

[sleek rapids]

You cant

He's invincible

Damn 😦

[drowsy yarrow]

@simple grove

[languid radish]

No tag Hey found.

[simple grove]

Bruh the thing won’t work

[drowsy yarrow]

Surround anything about the game with two vertical bars ||like this||

[simple grove]

Hey can someone please help me with the ||white palace please|| as I need the second half of the ||white fragment||

[simple island]

Are you stuck somewhere or don’t know where to go ?

[simple grove]

Could you dm me please as I can explain without the whole spoiler thing lol

[acoustic sigil]

Just put 2 bars at the start and 2 at the end of the message? It's not that hard

[simple grove]

But that just over complicates things for me 😅

[simple grove]

Can’t make it pass the end from my current position

[simple island]

Well it is overcomplicating things for me to go in your DM’s

Could you maybe share a screenshot ?

New knights can't share screenshots I believe

They can in this channel (and #1057825333841240104 )

Because trolls are less likely to spam images in a help channel, for some reason, and people join this server specifically for help

can you send a photo of your ||ke|| map?

Ty

[gray sandal]

Guys I just fought || pure vessel|| for the first time but I lost

[stiff yew]

are these stats good enough to go to ||white palace or where should i go||?

[ebon copper]

you cant go there yet, need 1800 ||essence|| for that

[ebon copper]

its one of the larger skillchecks in the game, basically 2nd hardest boss traditionally

[gray sandal]

Is fun though

[ebon copper]

hes my fav boss

[green pilot]

Me after deciding fighting ||nosk|| while super unprepared with 2k geo was a good idea

[ebon copper]

is it your 1st playthrough?

[green pilot]

Second, but I haven't played in 2 years and I forgot everything and cheated my first playthrough I thought he was going to be not hard

I was wrong

I beat him after 2 hours

But it was much harder than it would have with the ||wings||

[ebon copper]

if you need to you can 🧀 him

[green pilot]

I beat him already but how do you do that

For next playthrough

[sleek rapids]

Abuse the platforms

That's all you need

[ebon copper]

||just stand next to the platfoem in the middle, he will run over you youcan upslash when he runs above too for free dmg||

also jump and|| shriek ||when hes in the ceiling

[green pilot]

Oh yea I did that but would end up getting hit after a while to his ||going into the roof||

[green pilot]

Didn't have that yet

I got it after getting the ||shade cloak and everything else||

[ebon copper]

i mean, you can absolutely get ||howling wraiths|| before him easily

[green pilot]

I forgot how to get it until way after him

[ebon copper]

ye, i meant ||wraiths||, mb

[ebon copper]

unlucky ig

[green pilot]

Fr

I only got it for ||the second part of the coliseum of fools||

I'ma try to 112% the game before Silksong

I started 3 days ago

And I haven't had much time but I have the next week off

[stiff yew]

u can cheese him

[sleek rapids]

I like how silksong is giving everyone motivation to grind the game

[green pilot]

Frr

[crystal cedar]

hey so idk if this is the right channel for this, but whenever i open the game now it flashes white and then im stuck on a black screen, i can still hear the title music and stuff but the screens just black

anyone know how to fix this?

[rich vine]

Is this through steam?

[crystal cedar]

yes

[rich vine]

Mods?

[crystal cedar]

nope

[rich vine]

Have you tried validating files

[crystal cedar]

i tried verifying file intergrity but that did nothing

[rich vine]

Hmm

Maybe uninstall and then reinstall?

[crystal cedar]

i did

nothing changed

[rich vine]

Is your graphics driver up to date?

[crystal cedar]

i already tried that but im doing it again just incase

cuz i checked to see if this was happening on other games and it wasnt

[rich vine]

Strange, has it happened before when you opened the game?

[crystal cedar]

nope this happened at random

was playing earlier and it was fine then i just tried to open it and it did this

[rich vine]

My last guess is maybe malware

But I'm guessing not

[crystal cedar]

i already checked for viruses too 😭

[rich vine]

Well I'm out of ideas

Actually, maybe hard resetting your computer

[crystal cedar]

alright

yup didnt fix it

[rich vine]

Damn

[ebon copper]

try launching the game thru lumafly

maybe that helps

[crystal cedar]

what is lumafly

[ebon copper]

hollow knight mod launcher

||https://themulhima.github.io/Lumafly/||

[crystal cedar]

oh ok

[solid heart]

Go to #modding-discussion they also know about the technical workings of the game

They can surely know what is going on

[ebon copper]

you can try the launch modded option without downloading mods, if that doesnt work, you can try to manually relocate gamefiles

[ebon copper]

he said its not modded game

his game just crashes

[solid heart]

It doesn't matter

Modders know how the game code works

They also help in issues like this

[crystal cedar]

it definetly did not work

[ebon copper]

makes sense ig, anyway try lumafly tho, it launches the game eith different pahing so it may just work

[crystal cedar]

alright bro

this is how it looks when i open it

[ebon copper]

the game or lumafly?

[crystal cedar]

then it stays on a black screen with the title music

[ebon copper]

damn

[crystal cedar]

when i launched it thru steam and thru lumafly

[ebon copper]

go to #modding-discussion ig as @solid heart recommended

[solid heart]

Try this, they may know there, alternative uninstall and install again, idk @crystal cedar

[crystal cedar]

i did this already 😭

i tried launching it on another windows profile and it worked

[solid heart]

Oh, may be deeper than we realize

[crystal cedar]

but not on mine?>

[solid heart]

Ask in that channel

[ebon copper]

btw glistches like yours normally happen when some files are missing from the normal game files, can happen mostly with torrented stuff, but if you for example uninstalled and reinstalled, but there were remaining files that dont uninstall they may be on a different path to the game, which could be the reason

[crystal cedar]

i tried moving files to a different drive already

[ebon copper]

its mostly a problem when gamefiles are all tangled up

[crystal cedar]

ive done like everything under the sun'

[crystal cedar]

but why does the game launch on a diff windows profile under the same steam acc?

but not on my windows acc

[ebon copper]

wait what

that sounds like important info

idk tho, dont wanna say bs, so imma not try and guess the reason for that

[crystal cedar]

yeah i tried it on a new windows account under the same steam account and it launched fine

[floral lynx]

YALL I DID IT HOLY BANANAS

[ebon copper]

is the account it launches on important to keep?

[ebon copper]

if not, you could just try deleting that windows acc

[floral lynx]

I FINALLY BEAT ||P5||

[ebon copper]

congrats

[floral lynx]

Thanks for all your help and motivation. Couldnt have done it without this servers help

[ebon copper]

[crystal cedar]

no not really i can just reinstall steam and epic games and stuff

[ebon copper]

i mean since the only thing unusual is that it launches on the wrong windows acc, that is the only thing i can see you try

[dapper granite]

guys

give me tips on how to beat ||radiance||

i cant do the last phase

[sleek rapids]

For the last phase you can usually heal at the bottom cuz the aim sucks, but when you get closer to the top, you can juke the laser and ||dash|| through

[ebon copper]

do you mean ||absrad|| or normal

[dapper granite]

||absrad||

[stoic cedar]

||for the last phase of absrad, the two common strats ive seen are pogo strat and dash slash strat. for pogoing its kinda self explanatory, u just want to keep pogoing absrad until she dies. the orbs fly upward and despawn so all u need to pay attention to is when abs rad is about to teleport, and dodge the orbs at the same time to make the orbs fly offscreen. for dash slash, u start on the left platform and immediately start charing a nart. then when an orb starts flying towards u, dash off the platform to the left (do not jump and dash since u need to preserve a dash), double jump, and then dash towards the right back toward the platform, while releasing the nart (this will be a dash slash). after releasing the dash slash immediately start charging another nart and repeat the process. this will only hit abs rad if shes in the middle and sometimes will hit when shes on the left, but u wont hit her when shes on the right. despite this, eventually if u repeat this enough times ull hit enough dash slashes to kill her.||

[dapper granite]

thanks

[stoic cedar]

heres two quick videos i have of both the strats so u can roughly see how to do it

[green nacelle]

Why my skins not working

[eternal cedar]

do i have to beat ||traitor lord|| to get to ||white lady?||

[solid heart]

yes

[eternal cedar]

sighhhh, thank you

[frosty ocean]

Yes:)

[eternal cedar]

any tips for ||traitor lord?|| he's destroying me

[eternal cedar]

||cloth|| isn't here

[tawdry fiber]

||sharp shadow charm is recommended||

||Dash right through him whenever he tries to attack you||

[north rivet]

||Howdy y'all!
Simply put, ive got no sweet clue where to go lol
Ive been looking around for forever, but it feels like every path I havent been on needs some sort of ability I dont have yet
heres some map screenshots n such if that helps at all||

[rich vine]

Check below ||city||

Or, right of the bottom part of ||deepnest||

[north rivet]

||That part of deepnest had some black wall thing I couldnt get past
I will check the city of tears again tho, ty||

[rich vine]

I think you should check ||deepest|| again, there's another way you can go

Oh wait, actually before you check below ||city, peaks|| might have something you need

[eternal cedar]

ty! gottem! ❤️

[north rivet]

||||oh wait yeah, probably should mention

i actually ended up in the kindgom's edge accidentally like looking around, dont have a map there yet though, so I ended up stumbling upon the 2nd nail art eventually, then got out via the big ol blue lake
also idk where to exactly go in the peaks lol
the reason I left is because it seemed everywhere I needed to go was either too high up, or too far that my dash couldnt make it||

[stoic cedar]

||there is a part of cpeaks that u havent explored yet and have the abilities to go through, and itll lead to more progression||

[north rivet]

tyyy

[left quest]

||does unbreakable stength apply to grubberfly's elergy?||

[olive mirage]

yes

||it deals ~77.5% nail damage per projectile vs the 50% without strngth||

[jagged widget]

i forgot how to put the spoiler tag

nvm

so i already defeated ||absolute radiance|| in the double dmg thingy without taking any damage but when i try in the one hit i can't

[frosty ocean]

Guys is this good for the rest of the bosses?

[north rivet]

||Okay so um
Ive been looking around for a hot minute, and im still stuck 😭
the three upwards paths by the top bench are either too high, or are blocked off and idk where to find the switch to unlock them
and I cant make the jump for the path by the bottom bench||

[north rivet]

OH MY GOSH I AM ACTUALLY BLIND
ty 😭

[stoic cedar]

||yea, it is quite sad when u beat a boss no hit but it was ascended instead of radiant, but it doesnt count for radiant if u did in ascended||

[stoic cedar]

yes this is a very good charm build, u dont really need to change anything

[jagged widget]

i struggle a lot when ||absolute radiance|| is in the middle

[stoic cedar]

for which phase?

[jagged widget]

idk about phases i just call them when she's down on the middle or up lol

[stoic cedar]

||r u talking about the first phases when there is a floor, or the platform phase where theres no floor but instead floating platforms||

[jagged widget]

the second on you are talking about

[stoic cedar]

||the safest way to beat the platform phase is to just stay near the bottom middle platform at all times, and dont try to chase abs rad around wherever she teleports. instead, just wait for her to teleport near the bottom middle platform before going on the offensive and try to get in damage. ddark can be used to apply offensive pressure by using the ddark iframes to dodge through whatever she does while dealing even more damage to her||

[bold wren]

||can anyone help me with fallen champion? here are my charms||

||tips on the fight and what charms to use||

||i have every spell and pure nail||

[hoary anvil]

hmm... ||ditch joni's blessing in exchange for a specific heal tech||

[bold wren]

||deep and quick focus I'm assuming?||

||i get mauled whenever I try to heal||

[hoary anvil]

more specifically: ||hitting the armor during the stagger will reset the stagger timer, while also not dealing damage -> progressing the fight. this allows you to just hit, dream nail/heal, repeat until full hp/soul on each stagger, at which point you then go for the maggot to progress the fight||

[naive oriole]

I would recommend ||Strength + quickslash + steady body||. ||Failed Champion|| favors nail builds because ||you don't collect much soul in the fight||.

[bold wren]

||like when you knock him down and he exits his armor?||

[hoary anvil]

yeah, that's the time for that

[bold wren]

fair point tbh

ill try with that

[hoary anvil]

-# might try to get a video of what i'm talking about

[bold wren]

||I have 4 more slots||

[naive oriole]

With ||strength||, you cycle through ||failed champion|| once every 12 hits, so you can pretty easily count them.

[naive oriole]

If it were me, I'd do ||Mark of Pride|| and ||Wayward compass for the lulz||, but the rest is up to you.

[bold wren]

ill probably use ||mark of pride|| and ||sprintmaster|| since idk what to use the rest of my ||open notches||

honestly ||compass for the lulz|| sounds fire

imma do that

[compact crescent]

Can anyone help me rq? How tf do i get to the area to the right?

[naive oriole]

Are you able to get into the big rectanular room?

[compact crescent]

Im im that rectangle room rn but no way yo get to that red spot

[naive oriole]

That room should be navigable. What's blocking your way?

I always approached it from the opposite direction myself, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's a floor that needs to be broken or something.

[compact crescent]

I’ve tried hitting everything and slamming

[bold wren]

didn't beat it on this run but ||bro ascended||

[naive oriole]

I suspect there's a floor that needs to be broken. You need to approach it from the other direction. There's an entrance in ||Fungal Wastes||.

[solid heart]

I love that bug

[hoary anvil]

this is correct, more specifically, ||mantis village||

[bold wren]

I beat it, thanks for the help!

now time to do some more

||soul tyrant|| 2nd try W

[livid shoal]

Peak boss

[bold wren]

these were my charms 😭

[livid shoal]

Wtf is this SLOP.

Bro you have the ||charms|| for the Meta build too

[bold wren]

yeah ik but I forgot ||shaman||

i was panicking when I forgot it but it was the run I beat it

so I'll take it

[young lava]

what does ||nail binding mean on patheogens?||

[livid shoal]

Debuffs

It ||decreases your nail damage||

[bold wren]

what's the build?

[livid shoal]

||Unb Strength, Shaman, Q Slash, and Twister||

[bold wren]

ooo

wait lemme check if I have thise

those*

[livid shoal]

You do

[bold wren]

ye i do

ii

oo

[slim salmon]

Hey guys I have a question. I’m replaying the game on steam ( last time I played on Nintendo) I’m trying to get all achievements. I know for || grimmchild || and the flower shield you can only get one. So how will this affect all charms achievement? Cause it’s impossible to get both in one run?. Do I just have to get the other charm in a separate one? Or dose getting one of em will get it?

[zinc zodiac]

you only need one of them

[slim salmon]

Thank you.

One more question I forgot did I need || dream nail || to finish the ritual with the ||circus?|| do I get the child before I finish it? Cause i think it remember I got the child before ||NKG|| but I could be wrong

[pliant smelt]

Why are we spoilering everythi g?

[zinc zodiac]

[pliant smelt]

isnt this a hk channel?

[zinc zodiac]

[blazing yacht]

@slim salmonare you playing from steam?

[slim salmon]

Yes

[blazing yacht]

steam has 63 achievements, consoles have less

you HAVE to play the game twice

[grizzled condor]

i love him sm

[blazing yacht]

you need both those charms

[zinc zodiac]

wait really

[blazing yacht]

because there's an achievement for ||banishing the troupe too||

[blazing yacht]

yes, 100%

[slim salmon]

I see the issue is I will never be able to have all the charms in one run

[blazing yacht]

i platinum this game every few years out of boredom so im sure

[slim salmon]

So I was wandering how that will work

[blazing yacht]

yes, replay the game, you have to play ||steel soul ||anyway

AND speedrun achievements

[slim salmon]

I see and in the new replay do I have to get every || charm || again? Or just that one that I didn’t have

[blazing yacht]

you have to have 100% on a ||steel soul ||save file

so yeah, getting most of the charms is the easy way to get most of the %

[slim salmon]

I’m strictly talking about charm achievement rn

[blazing yacht]

no, you don't

just ||banish the troupe||

[grizzled condor]

what's up with u and charms

[blazing yacht]

? wdym

[grizzled condor]

no the other person

[blazing yacht]

he's doing achievements

[grizzled condor]

is there charm achievements??? i don't remember that i'm sorry

[blazing yacht]

ofc tf haha

get half, get all of them

[slim salmon]

Yea I’m tackling achievements one as a time lol ||steel soul|| and speed run are gonna be the last achievements I do I wanna get the most I can rn

[grizzled condor]

oh that makes sense

[blazing yacht]

||steel soul ||and speedrun are the easiest tbh. im not sure abt you, but i always did them together

[grizzled condor]

i love || steel soul! ||

[blazing yacht]

idk. same mode just don't die

[slim salmon]

Sorry so what I want to know is if I get every charm I can except for the shield. for my seccond run I technically just need the shield and I’ll get the achievement correct?

[blazing yacht]

if youve played the game for a while nothing changes, i'd like for it to be more challenging tbh

[zinc zodiac]

idk lets go on another conversation on what youre trying to do

[jade sedge]

I dont know what you are talking about but you should probably spoiler tag the message if its a charm description

[slim salmon]

Yes

[blazing yacht]

you mean ||carefree melody ||right?

ok i see

it's not about the charm itself

[slim salmon]

It didn’t trigger the system so I figured it was okay

[blazing yacht]

it's more about the action you do to get it. you get an achievement AND a charm

[jade sedge]

The bot is only triggered by a few words. Any descriptions of items and such will not be triggered even though they are spoilers. There is also some of words that arent in the list because they also have other meanings

[blazing yacht]

to clarify: you just talk to an NPC to get it, after the achievement, my bad

[blazing yacht]

it's honestly a dumb idea. censoring charm names that have nothing to do by themselves, i mean not spoil anything like ||king's soul.. ||etc.

[slim salmon]

I’m sorry I’m even more confused now.
So for the achievement || BLESSED|| the requirement is get all charms and the persons || blessing|| but in one run it’s not possible. I can get all charm and the blessing except the || melody shield || so in a new run I’ll get the || melody shield. || My question is do I have to get all the charms again in the new run?

[zinc zodiac]

i dont think so

[slim salmon]

I wonder if the lore channel is this heavily censored

[blazing yacht]

OH MY GOD

ok, you have to collect all 40 charms and buy ||salubra's blessing rom her for 800. ||you do not need a specific charm from ||grimm troupe||, any will do

[blazing yacht]

obv not

[blazing yacht]

NO, only get all the charms ONCE.

[slim salmon]

lol thank you very much for your guidance.
So @zinc zodiac Was right I just need one from || Grimm troupee|| to get the achievement

[blazing yacht]

welcome

[slim salmon]

Sorry that was meant to be a joke lol

[jade sedge]

||If we allowed charm names, you could also describe them and spoil people. You could tell everything about the charm and where it is located and all. We cant make the people in chat at the moment decide for every specific situation whether its a spoiler or not so there must be a clear line that includes all possible spoilers. The only choice is tagging all charm names.||

[blazing yacht]

my bad

[blazing yacht]

we, who's we lol.. you're not wrong, but i wasn't talking about describing a charm and everything there is to it. don't censor the names, censor the actual spoilers!

thats my ideology

[slim salmon]

Every discord is different and I respect the rules set by this server but generally speaking when a game been out for 8 years spoilers go out the window just saying.

[blazing yacht]

couldn't be more true

[jade sedge]

We means basically everyone

[blazing yacht]

i still don't want new people to get heavily spoiled, but charm names... cmon man, nobody gives a shit

[jade sedge]

I guess its a bad wording

[blazing yacht]

and besides, how can you still be new to hollow knight lol? ig only if you're a child that just got his first PC

[zinc zodiac]

:|

[blazing yacht]

usually mods talk that way, and i thought you're trying to be one so it was funny to me, dw

[jade sedge]

But who decides when it is an actual spoiler? Mods cant decide it beforehand for every possible message, so that means the people in chat must do that. And letting chat choose the rules at the moment does not work.

[jade sedge]

It doesnt matter when it was released if there are still constantly new players

[blazing yacht]

you still don't get it? let spoiler rules stay as is, but at the same time let people say charm names. its not even area names

[slim salmon]

lol funny enough HK was my first ever combat heavy game. Back in 2017. I haven’t played it for 8 years. Honestly playing it again for the sequel coming. But this brought back lovely memories. Really is a good game. I never expected the community was so heavy on spoilers. Once again not complaining just surprised lol

[zinc zodiac]

mostly this guy

[blazing yacht]

yeah and that's the weird thing to me how people STILL haven't played one of THE games of all time lol

[jade sedge]

It is not possible to let people say charm names but not describe them in the slightest

[slim salmon]

I mean that’s what I did

[blazing yacht]

I am complaining lol. obv that's not up to me to decide, but i can tell what i disagree with the server on, it's not 1984

[slim salmon]

I asked about achievements and mentioned charm names

But for a person that’s no way spoiling

[blazing yacht]

||carefree melody|| would mean nothing to a new player and they couldn't care less

[jade sedge]

Yeah, and i want to tell you why the rule is how it is so you have a chance to understand it and agree on it

[slim salmon]

Have you guys heard of a game black myth Wukong?
I’m the mod and admin in that communities across multiple platforms. Spoiler warnings were disbanded 2 months after release.
There are dedicated channels for each chapter for people who don’t want spoilers

[blazing yacht]

i DO understand why it's there. because in fact it's a spoiler. by definition it's smth you do NOT know yet

HEARD lmfao

dude it was almost goty 2024

[slim salmon]

Don’t get me started

[blazing yacht]

ass game, i despise it.. but mostly for personal reasons

i can elaborate tho

There are dedicated channels for each chapter for people who don’t want spoilers
that actually sounds amazing wow

[slim salmon]

You can but I love that game to death so I’m never gonna agree lol but I’m open to hearing of course

[blazing yacht]

elden ring DLC for goty and game of the century 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[slim salmon]

Ah I see your one of those fans lol

People often say “ black myth is a terrible souls game!”

And the answer is “ yes. Cause it’s not a souls game”

[jade sedge]

||"You get carefree melody from banishing grimm with brumm" || is quite a big spoiler i'd say. But how do you make a clear the line that separates just the word and an actual spoiler. How do you draw a line that is clear as day to everyone but only allows the word and not "an actual spoiler"

[blazing yacht]

best fiction ever created, best open world, best combat (almost lol) best bosses, best cutscenes, best animations, best soundtrack EVER, BEST EVERYTHING

[blazing yacht]

yeah its not a souls game ofc

it's a slasher and a poor one imo

[slim salmon]

lol all that is subjective so I can’t even say your wrong.

[blazing yacht]

it's way too easy and cheesyy

[slim salmon]

It’s not a slasher either. lol what chapter did you reach?

[blazing yacht]

i had to go out of my way to NOT use all the shit the game gives me because it trivializes everything so much

[slim salmon]

Really? I cheesed through Elden ring a lot easier lol

[blazing yacht]

the game is basically a boss rush, which is amazing, but i don't even get to learn the boss patterns because i first try them all the time

[slim salmon]

That just mean your skilled! What chapter did you get to?

[blazing yacht]

this is poor game design, and no, why do i have to suffer because im experienced in souls

[blazing yacht]

chapter 2 somewhere, and i dropped the game, back in autumn

i wanna replay it but i can't

[slim salmon]

Ooh you haven’t gotten to the hard people yet

To bad the challenging ones are chapter 3 and up

That explains alot

[modest elm]

Okay but wukong is still pretty easy

[blazing yacht]

there are so many different abilities that make me invincible, stun the BOSS completely for several seconds freezing them in time, turn me into a diff character MAKING ME invincible (because separate HP bar)

[slim salmon]

lol I found Elden ring easier but everyone different

[blazing yacht]

elden ring is not easy nor hard. you can MAKE it both

[modest elm]

ER difficultly is a spectrum

[blazing yacht]

depends on what you use

[modest elm]

Yeah

[blazing yacht]

definitely yes

try RL1 with wooden club

no summons

no armor

[modest elm]

And I don’t think people claim that ER was one of the harder fromsoft games

[blazing yacht]

club is still an amazing weapon, but it's difficult af

[slim salmon]

Yea that’s the thing and hear me out. This might not work for pros like you but because Elden ring can be made insanely easy. It makes wukong harder in default cause say for someone like me that never expirenced something similar before I will have a lot of learning to do. Where as in Elden ring I didn’t have to learn anything

[modest elm]

There’s like 5 bosses you’d reasonably find to be a roadblock. And 2 of those are because you’d find them early

[blazing yacht]

it was just SUCH a pity for me

[modest elm]

Or because it’s blatant jank

[blazing yacht]

i was waiting for wukong since 2022 when it got announced

i remember seeing a picture? a trailer? idk, but it looked gorgeous

[modest elm]

Idk why we’re talking about ER

[blazing yacht]

UE5 first ever triple A soulslike

[slim salmon]

There is a new mode called rivals where you can crank the diffcukty up to max and shell is insane

[modest elm]

Wukong the game is easy because it’s not trying to be super hard… that’s like, fine

[blazing yacht]

and then it turns out to be chinese slop about pressing 2 buttons and winning

[modest elm]

I wouldn’t call wukong that easy. Or slop either

[slim salmon]

Hey that’s just being really mean. Just cause your a pro and found it to easy doesn’t mean it’s like that for everyone there’s a reason why it’s so popular

[blazing yacht]

i think it IS trying, and that's the issue. im not saying all games should pose a challenge, but when the do - please make it a real one

[slim salmon]

Even won players voice award

[slim salmon]

Try erlang

[modest elm]

Who cares

[slim salmon]

The issue is you never played past chapter 2

[modest elm]

And yeah, finish the game lol

[blazing yacht]

im not saying the game is ass, i personally find it ass because it's not a challenge at all

[slim salmon]

You literally only played easy ones

[slim salmon]

That I can accept

[grizzled condor]

yeah u gotta get to chapter 3 =D

[blazing yacht]

boss rush games are never meant to be easy, and that's what i dislike about it

[slim salmon]

And up

[grizzled condor]

oh idk anything about that game sorry

[blazing yacht]

i can definitely see why people say its that good

[modest elm]

So finish it

[slim salmon]

Chapter 4 has 2 bosses that make people rip there hair out

[blazing yacht]

its cinema

like elden ring

[modest elm]

It’s a videogame with interesting combat mechanics

[blazing yacht]

ive seen VERY little from the later game bosses, but it was fucking cool

[modest elm]

Which you haven’t reached

[grizzled condor]

wait what game

[blazing yacht]

wukong

[slim salmon]

Black myth Wukong

[modest elm]

You saw bosses that looked cool and very little of them, and you assumed they were only cool

[blazing yacht]

i want to play it, i would do it rn but i cannot anymore. my PC wouldnt handle it ever

[slim salmon]

Well if you ever willing to give it a chance you can find the discord or message me. I’m literally everywhere related to it

[modest elm]

Why would you want to play slop

[blazing yacht]

i mean i saw some cutscenes of bosses people consider to be the best

[blazing yacht]

because it's a good game i dislike? ill force myself to like it

[slim salmon]

Good news for you. If you find and fight everyone you unlock a rival mode where you can crank the diffcukty up to max

[modest elm]

Yeah yeah, finish the game dawg

[slim salmon]

To really get a challenge

[blazing yacht]

that's how i play videogames. because objectively its a cool game, and its a ME issue that i don't like it, ill play more to get more in touch with it

[modest elm]

I think the game is reasonably casual. I also think you need to play the entirety of the game to assess the entirety of its challenge

[slim salmon]

The producers that made it said they didn’t want to make a boss to difficult because he wanted everyone to be able to learn and complete it. Hence why it’s not even a souls game

You play lies of p?

[blazing yacht]

oh, i also got especially disappointed because of the areas, they were so short and uninteresting, also INVISIBLE walls. it's a fucking joke

i only later realized it's a boss rush game

so whatever

im not gonna judge areas anymore

[slim salmon]

Chapter 3 is the longest chapter you just gotta explore

4 is a maze

5 is short

6 is open world

[blazing yacht]

i explore 100% of everything i touch

[blazing yacht]

yeah seen that one

[blazing yacht]

yeah ikr

that's what i dislike about it

i was waiting for several years to get a good souls game, and it turns out to not even be souls

[slim salmon]

I look forward to your achievements

[blazing yacht]

check my steam then haha

if you wanna see my achievements

[slim salmon]

Lol 1 game ban in record?

[blazing yacht]

ooh, that's DBD

i had an item in my inventory which was deleted from the game

got insta banned with the first ban wave

back in september 2020

[slim salmon]

I don’t see black myth on your games

[blazing yacht]

i was playing it from my work place. i was working in an office, it had a gaming room with a PS5

my PC would never lol, i barely run Elden Ring

[slim salmon]

Ah

I played black myth on ps as well

And then played it on steam

Plat on both

[blazing yacht]

don't even get me started on how disgusting the game looks on PS5

well just as any game

[slim salmon]

Better then Elden ring

Guess it depends on the monitor lol

[blazing yacht]

it's trying to be more realistic, doesn't mean it's better

[slim salmon]

I just find the graphics prettier

[blazing yacht]

ER follow their own style and they're not aiming for realistic graphics

[blazing yacht]

yeah the game looks amazing

but on PC on high/ultra

[slim salmon]

I played on a portal lol

And for steam I played on a steam deck

[blazing yacht]

ER is not about graphics. it's about the art design which is incomparable to any other, that's why i genuinely believe it's the best game of all time

yet

[slim salmon]

Both Elden ring and BMW looks bad on steam deck but hollow knight looks great on steam deck lol

[blazing yacht]

i wonder why lmaoo

[modest elm]

If visual design was the only metric games were measured by, ER wouldn’t be a winner anyways

[slim salmon]

black myth the lore and how it ties and unties to the original novel is beautiful. Something that’s hard to come by. And the design of characters I find gorgeous but of course beauty is subjective

[modest elm]

Wow, this is the #help channel

[slim salmon]

lol your right I’m sorry lol

[modest elm]

nah. We’re heading to #off-topic

[slim salmon]

Go ahead im heading to bed anyway. I’ll continue playing hollow knight tommrow. Thank you everyone for the help! I appreciate it

[alpine comet]

yeah getting sidetracked is part of help channel

[blazing yacht]

i don't think there's a game that comes close to ER in terms of visual art design

[modest elm]

#off-topic

[blazing yacht]

i've played videogames my entire life and i haven't seen anything of that scale

[hollow yarrow]

I need help getting a mod to work

[thick wing]

||pantheon|| grind begins

[stoic cedar]

this is not the channel for assisting with mods, i would suggest #1057825333841240104 instead

[hollow yarrow]

Oh, I saw the channel was called hk-help and assumed it was help for anything, my bad

[stoic cedar]

this is just for unmodded content

[hollow yarrow]

Ok

[simple island]

We have people asking here for help with math
the confusion happens more often than you think

[livid shoal]

Dude 😭

[thick wing]

i'm missing a lot of bosses aren't i

should i kill them all before i do the ||pantheons||

[livid shoal]

Some of the bosses you're missing are in the ||Pantheons||

[thick wing]

yes i know but i'm 99% sure that i'm missing some outside of those

[livid shoal]

Yeah

[thick wing]

like 2 ||dream bosses|| i'm pretty sure that i have no idea where they could be

[livid shoal]

Mainly ||Dream Warriors and Bosses||

[blazing yacht]

yes

definitely

[thick wing]

killed all the ||warriors||

[blazing yacht]

||godhome ||should be the last thing you do

[thick wing]

i only have the ||dream bosses||

[blazing yacht]

just do all bosses

do the entire map, leave nothing

and then get to ||godhome||

[livid shoal]

I'm blind don't mind me

[thick wing]

alright listen

i did ||failed champion and soul tyrant||, where are the other 2 that are left

[livid shoal]

Mayhaps go to an area where you got some ||wings||

[thick wing]

....

do not tell me i'm fighting ||infected vessel|| again

[stoic cedar]

||u r missing one of the dream warriors||

[thick wing]

you're joking, right

[blazing yacht]

ofc

he's easy af dw

[thick wing]

THERE'S STILL ONE LEFT??

[blazing yacht]

yes

[thick wing]

I THOUGHT I DID THEM ALL I EXPLORED ALL OF ||HALLOWNEST||

this HAS to be everything

[stoic cedar]

||yes thats everything but uve missed one of the dream warriors in one of these areas||

[livid shoal]

The worst Warrior

Good luck

[thick wing]

i never stumbled across a SINGLE one of them after ||mormu||

[stoic cedar]

||tbh hes not that bad in the overworld, only the ascended arena is what makes the fight so annoying||

[thick wing]

clues on what ||area they might be in?||

[stoic cedar]

||kingdoms edge||

[thick wing]

oh god

oh god

oh god

[livid shoal]

||Kingdom's Edge|| is NOT that bad

[thick wing]

if he's locked behind a ||shade beam|| i don't think so

[stoic cedar]

anything specific about it?

[grizzled condor]

yeah what part u stuck on?

[thick wing]

nvm first try

(||abyss shriek|| spam)

[grizzled condor]

ohhhhhhhh

[jovial zephyr]

|| killing the hollow knight is one of the endings right?||

[grizzled condor]

yes!!!

[stoic cedar]

||r u talking about the frenzy phase?||

[split fox]

||when he dashes at you and is going to do the spinny attack, walk away from him and slash him once
Also dont move a lot its just gonna make it worse||

[thick wing]

2.4k.

she's gone

||ascended||

i'm lost now

she talked about a ||wyrm that took the form of a king||

a light, a ||radiance||, she remembers

||well, her light's gone, teared and ripped apart from all the shades and siblings||

[stoic cedar]

||for the frenzy phase u should be using a combination of great slashes and shade souls. the best way to hit sly in this phase is with shade soul, as all u need to do is to dash away from sly when he gets close and shoot a shade soul at him at the right moment to get a multihit (most of the time). otherwise, if u dont have the soul, u should be charging up a nart instead while sly is bouncing around the arena, and then when sly gets close, dash away from him, then turn around and hit him with a great slash when hes fully stopped||

[thick wing]

i wonder where the last ||dream boss|| lays now

[stoic cedar]

continuing off this, this is a video example of how to deal with ||slys frenzy phase||, u can see the usage of ||great slashes|| at the start of the phase, then near the end i start using ||shade souls|| to get ||multihits||

[tepid meadow]

just changed my mouse cursor to hollow knight cursor

[tender jolt]

im facing an issue after i downloaded scarab to mod hollow knight its not opening

[stoic cedar]

This channel is not the place for modding help. Please see #1057825333841240104 instead

[thick wing]

i just fought ||gpz|| for the first time oh my god this is so pathetic LOL

[viscid heart]

wait until he kicks yo ass then you will regret saving him

[livid shoal]

Keep fighting him

[thick wing]

i mean he's already doing that

i already regret saving him

killed him

[livid shoal]

Do it again.

[thick wing]

i actually fucking hate this guy

[livid shoal]

I thought he was pathetic

[thick wing]

not in a sense of difficulty but because he's kinda embarrassing honestly

[livid shoal]

Well yeah obviously

[jovial zephyr]

is this normal that ||the boss in the hive|| is easier than ||the holow knight||?

[livid shoal]

Why would ||The Hive Knight|| be harder than ||THK||

[thick wing]

i dont think its harder?

[livid shoal]

What do you count it's ||third phase|| as

Ah

Yeah I know what part

Wowzers

[thick wing]

okay this boss is just bullshit

[livid shoal]

Heheheeh

[shut sparrow]

it seems pretty random and rng at first but once you learn the attacks it also becomes consistent. You also don't need to fight it for anything important if you don't want to

[livid shoal]

No I just told her to fight ||GPZ||

Or maybe she does want the statue

[thick wing]

this is so fucking bullshit

[livid shoal]

[thick wing]

DUDE

HOW LONG AND HOW MANY TIMES AM I GONNA FIGHT HIM FOR

WTF

[livid shoal]

:3

Do you want the exact number

[thick wing]

....

double damage.

no fucking shot

no fucking shot

[livid shoal]

It adds up

[thick wing]

you have to be joking right

[livid shoal]

To where he can one tap you

[thick wing]

okay

so

do i continue to bother with fighting him?

[livid shoal]

:3

[thick wing]

do i continue

i'm not nohitting this guy

[livid shoal]

Dunno gangio

[thick wing]

106%

i think i'm nearing my limit with hk honestly

idk if i wanna do the ||pantheons|| or ||absolute radiance|| anymore

[livid shoal]

Btw ||GPZ|| doesn't give percentage

[thick wing]

my enjoyment for the game is starting to dwindle

[thick wing]

yeah i could tell

[livid shoal]

Play Nine Sols

[thick wing]

I might call it quits right here probably

this game was fucking awesome but idk if i wanna go through it again, i might do the ||pantheons|| and 112% it once i'm done with my exams i don't have the time for this anymore

65hrs that's a lot

[jovial zephyr]

how do i get to this guy

[stoic cedar]

thats usually what happens when u play a game so much in a short period of time, u kinda get burned out from playing the game

[manic abyss]

Any tips for ||Rad God Tamer||?

[manic abyss]

I think you have to ||break a wall||

[jovial zephyr]

where

[thick wing]

look around and find gaps and holes in the area, hold your up key to see areas better and the down key
one hint though: ||crystal dash||

[thick wing]

yeah the game was really fun to play, i only got it like last fucking week though

[jovial zephyr]

okay

thank

[thick wing]

consecutively poured in 8+ hrs of playtime every single day ever since i got it
it has so much to do but i kind of fear it's the same thing as terraria, i mean playthroughs take just around the same amount of time really

[stoic cedar]

u got it last week but u have 65 hrs?? yea thats a lot of playtime in just a week, maybe take a break from the game for a bit and come back to it later

[manic abyss]

Omg that a lot

[thick wing]

main reason i even got the game was because my mouse is heavily broken and i've been kinda wanting it and was getting a little bit interested in it so i figured i'd get it

and i don't really regret it honestly

[stoic cedar]

||just keep pogoing on top of the mount, u r completely safe from the infection spits when u r right on top of god tamer, the only thing u need to watch out for is when the tamer jumps, ull either have to dodge the jump or ddark through it. and if the mount rolls then make sure to continue to pogoing once it lands||

[thick wing]

i still need that new mouse though so i can play other things because the breaking of my mouse resulted in the only game that i was able to play to be hollow knight, otherwise i think i would've JUST beaten ||thk|| like yesterday or smth were i to play other things

[manic abyss]

If you play like an 1-2 hour(s) a day that should be fine cuz I’ve been doing that for 2 months and I love this game with all my heart

[thick wing]

i wish i did the same as you

[manic abyss]

I would play more if I had time but I’m always busy

[thick wing]

i'm kinda behind on a lot of responsibilities because of this game
it kinda fucked me over now 😭

lesson learnt though

[stoic cedar]

yea u shouldnt be putting off real life responsibilities cuz of a video game no matter how good it is, i honestly just suggest taking a break from the game and coming back to it with a fresh mind

[manic abyss]

Yeah when and if I have free time I just play the game

[thick wing]

yeah i gotta salvage whatever time i have left now to get my foot back up

[manic abyss]

And it’s been one of the best few months for me bc I can have social time and still play peak

[thick wing]

dedicated 90% of my time playing this game and kinda fell on a lot of departements, still knew my limits for when to stop so things don't actually go bad

yeah alr i'm done now i'll dip till summer

[manic abyss]

That’s a while

[tepid meadow]

e

[runic belfry]

any tips for || flower quest||?

[buoyant flame]

Take this path, it's long but it's one of the safest

[jovial zephyr]

how much ||do i need to pay the guy to make my charm not fragile||

[buoyant flame]

Depends on which one you do

[jovial zephyr]

which ||charm||?

[buoyant flame]

||Greed = 9k, Health = 12k and strength = 15k I believe||

[buoyant flame]

Yeah

[jovial zephyr]

damn

expensive

[buoyant flame]

But you don't ||pay the original guy||

[jovial zephyr]

do they take up more ||charm notches||

[buoyant flame]

Nope

[jovial zephyr]

okay

thank

[manic abyss]

[tribal python]

Tips for ||radiant absrad||?

[buoyant flame]

A lot of practice

[simple island]

There are the backups

[bitter ember]

hey there, I hope someone can help with an issue I just had.
I stopped playing HK after beating ||P5|| around this time in 2023, but when I opened it again today I found my save file replaced with an older version where I'm at 110%.
I think Steam Cloud has something to do with it, but even after disabling it and restoring backup files looks like the latest backup is the one where I'm at 110%: I fear Steam Cloud might have overwritten my local game files.
Does anyone know if there's a way to restore my old save files?

[simple island]

If you go in the save folder, there will be a file named "userX.dat.bak" iirc, if you remove the .bak it turns into a real file

If you do that and get rid of the actual save file then you should have used the backup
Not sure it will put you back forward in progression

Likely won’t

[bitter ember]

I did that and used the backup dated roughly one month after I got the final achievement, but the result was the same

[simple island]

Right message links still get tagged

[simple island]

In that case you are probably cooked
You are gonna need to do that things again, or use mods to cheat them back

[bitter ember]

good grief

thanks anyway, I guess I'll keep myself busy waiting for silksong

after looking into my backup file through a save editor, I can be sure it's outdated as well

[cerulean maple]

How do i get to ||fog canyon|| again

[alpine comet]

||down from greenpath or left from queens station||

HOLY FUCKING SHIT WHAT

[fathom creek]

wrong channel or???

[thick wing]

anyways hi guys ||pantheons are fucking driving me crazy!!!!||

[livid shoal]

The Fengs are driving me crazy

Phase two sucks 😔

[stoic cedar]

||for soul binding theres generally two different ways to approach it: either focus more on nail than on spells, or u can spam spells extremely aggressively to prevent any wasted hits (wasted hits as in hits that dont give soul). for a nail build u can do smth like strength, qs, mop, sbody, dwielder. u can mess around a little with the one notch charms to see what fits for u. for aggressive spell spam u can use strength, qs, shaman, and whatever u want that fits two notches, like long nail or stalwarts shell (just dont use smth like spell twister or soul catcher since ull often be hitting the soul cap which mitigates the usefulness of these charms)||

[stoic cedar]

anything in specific? maybe what phase u r struggling on the most?

[onyx fern]

||thank you! I already did it but I will be using this for p4 (but p4 is easier since it isn't 80% bullshit bosses)||

[shy zenith]

Hey, I'm fairly new to hollow knight and got the ||dream nail|| and ||infected crossroads||. What do I do from here. I don't know how to get ||shadow dash|| or whatever it's called.

[livid shoal]

||Shade Dash is far from where you are right now, don't worry about it||

[shy zenith]

What do I do from here then?

[fathom creek]

explore

[shy zenith]

any place in specific or just explore?

[fathom creek]

[shy zenith]

[dim yew]

[thick wing]

i assume that you now have 3 icons across the map that look like ||masks||, you should go seek them

[lapis pasture]

I got the ||voidheart|| now where do I go

[livid shoal]

Go fight ||THK||

[lament coral]

||Black egg temple, defeat all 3 dreamers if you haven't (I think (wait, can you get VH wihout killing any dreamers?(I think so)))||

[lapis pasture]

Probably

They’re only necessary for the place and the place isn’t required for the charm

[buoyant flame]

Whats ||VH||?

Oh wait nvm

||Void Heart||

Can you fight ||The Radiance|| without ||Void Heart||?

[livid shoal]

[livid shoal]

"Git Gud!"
—||Hornet||

[bronze gust]

It isn't even hard it's just long af

[livid shoal]

Then Speedrun it

[bronze gust]

Ye but I'm rather careful and thats why it takes so long

[livid shoal]

[bronze gust]

I don't like speed running when death is literally ||permanent||

[livid shoal]

I'm probably worse than you and I Speedrun ||Steel Soul||

[bronze gust]

||Steel soul ||is alright but ||Steel heart|| is torture

[livid shoal]

[jovial zephyr]

[jade heart]

[jovial zephyr]

how do i get to ||the thingy of pain and suffering||

[simple island]

You are in ||white palace|| ?

If so you need to look around for ||breakable walls in the room above the first elevator ||

[leaden brook]

this was a mind boggling climb dear lord

||took me 80-100 mins||

[simple island]

Now ||sit on the throne|| to assert dominance

[jovial zephyr]

i was but now im not

[leaden brook]

hell yea

[simple island]

Well then go back and look in the room I’m describing

The wall is on the left

[jovial zephyr]

i dont like that place

but okay

[leaden brook]

azerod whats this?

[jovial zephyr]

fr

what is this

[leaden brook]

you should not look at this bro

[jovial zephyr]

why?

[leaden brook]

you're new?

[jovial zephyr]

no?

[leaden brook]

lol then you can

[simple island]

They just got it lol

[jovial zephyr]

yes

[leaden brook]

yep

[simple island]

Well you just got ||half an item from one ruler of the kingdom
That does really seem like one hell of a mighty item, better find the other half (in the literal opposite half of the kingdom)||

[jovial zephyr]

ooops

||what are the best charms for the path of pain and things like taht||

[sharp torrent]

||charms aren't really that much help in pop. I guess you would use stuff that helps you pogo, like nail length and quick slash; as well as maybe a combat charm like shaman just in case||

[leaden brook]

||I used hiveblood, grub one, long nail, and one more.||

[simple island]

Just take ||grubsong deepfocus/hiveblood
there are totems|| everywhere so it doesn’t matter too much

[jovial zephyr]

what about the ||hive|| one?

[leaden brook]

i used that

[jovial zephyr]

ye it seems good

[leaden brook]

||hiveblood, grubsong, long nail is enough.||

[jovial zephyr]

for this

okay

thank

[leaden brook]

havent done it yet?

||the climb?||

[simple island]

Ideally for me you use ||grubsong, deepfocus and mark of pride quick slash ||

[jovial zephyr]

i havent done the ||path of pain||

[simple island]

||Hiveblood|| is just slow as hell so I don’t like it

[leaden brook]

good luck man

[jovial zephyr]

thanks

[jovial zephyr]

ye but it heals

[leaden brook]

||I did it just now. I felt pain, anger irl.||

[leaden brook]

It will help you a lot

||grubsong especially and hiveblood.||

||dont forget to sit on the throne xd, coz I didnt.||

@simple island
