[vagrant furnace]

[signal sandal]

Ok

[vagrant furnace]

then go back get ||flower, take tram|| and go through

easy

[floral topaz]

hi
||im currently stuck on the third pantheon becouse of zote (i hate him). My current build is unbreakable strenght, shaman stone, mark of pride, grubsong and steady body. Do i need to change something for him? I have all notches and charms. Other bosses are pretty easy. Maybe i need to change something? You have some tips?||

[vagrant furnace]

uhhh I think I used ||shaman, steady body, strength, quick slash and dreamweilder||

[sly rune]

You don't really need ||Steady Body if you're not using Quickslash||, so removing that and using something like ||Nailmaster's Glory|| might help.

Or you could remove ||both your one slot charms for Spell Twister or Soul Catcher||.

[floral topaz]

thx guys ill try

[shrewd basin]

Painn

I've had 3x as many attempts at this now than ||p5||

[bleak vigil]

Guys any tips on ||grey prince zote||?

[tame trout]

Y'all im so lost should i keep exploring the ||crystal place|| or should i finish ||city of tears||

[zinc verge]

||ddark|| your best friend

[shrewd basin]

Pogo a max of 3 times follow up with a ||ddark||

[bleak vigil]

Alrighty thank you

[bleak vigil]

Thanks gonna try

[tame trout]

||Crystal|| is pretty weird i did the obby thing once and 3 ghosts teleported me somewhere but i died (and lost my geos)

[bleak vigil]

I like ||crystal peak || except for the ||stupid annoying bats||

[tame trout]

I can't do the jumping thing again tho bc of the ||bugs||

[shrewd basin]

I hateeeee thisssss

[bleak vigil]

Pun intended?

[tame trout]

Yes man i can't procced to that unknown place again

[tame trout]

Wdym

[bleak vigil]

Bugs

Hollow knight is a world of bugs

But

Bugs is a word used for errors in games or programms

So uhh

That's why

[tame trout]

Some bug told me to collect 100 essence or something and gave me ||a chargeable attack||

[stoic cedar]

||i assume u fell down through a big hole in crystal peaks, if so u arent in crystal peaks anymore||

[tame trout]

No i mean the bat bugs

[bleak vigil]

Oh yeah

I hate them so much

[tame trout]

Idk i got teleported there was a cutscene and stuff

[fluid garden]

||that is not crystal peaks anymore, you fell down into another area||

[tame trout]

3 ghosts and some faces appeared on my map after

[bleak vigil]

There is a second way

With||lumafly light||

[tame trout]

Ye i know

[stoic cedar]

||seems like u got the dreamnail, its important for story progression, and its also helpful in certain situations to gain soul||

[stoic cedar]

that is not what im talking about

[tame trout]

So should i try to clear that? Continue ||crystal|| on another route? Or just finish ||city of tears||

[tame trout]

Ye i got it i only use it to collect the essence thing tho

Can it damage?

[fluid garden]

spoil ||essence|| btw

[fluid garden]

no

[tame trout]

Oh okay sorry

[tame trout]

Then how come i gain soul w it

[bleak vigil]

I mean both give you awesome ability

[tame trout]

I want the ||crystal dash thing||, i hate to leave places undiscovered

[bleak vigil]

Well then you got your answer

[tame trout]

So is it at the peak or that mysterious place i got tped into?

[fluid garden]

||as the name implies it cuts into the dreams of anyone you strike with it, which i guess the devs wanted to make useful during fights too so they made it give soul||

[tame trout]

Oo okay thanks

[bleak vigil]

Honestly I forgot

[tame trout]

I hit npcs w it lmao

[bleak vigil]

If you have a map try going to places you weren't before

And you'll find it eventually

[tame trout]

Oh okay

[fluid garden]

yeah alot of lore/dialogue is locked behind ||dreamnail||

[tame trout]

I just entered the peak lol I'mma explore it then

[tame trout]

I'll probably care for that on my 2nd run

[bleak vigil]

Alr good luck and have fun m8

[tame trout]

Thanks

[lilac meteor]

||how can I tell where the grims flame go||

[raw ridge]

I'm gonna crashout

[boreal spade]

Mobile 💔

[simple island]

she just took a vacation elsewhere in ||hallownest
im sure youll find her||, she probably just found a nice spot to relax

[raw ridge]

Ight I'mma carry PC when going outside so i can play 👍

[simple island]

also you have like 30k geo she ||can only hold like 3k lol||

[boreal spade]

Just don’t play then

[boreal spade]

it’s kinda hard to die at that point

[simple island]

(also also, its less about the fact that you play the game on phone, and more the fact that you haven't "stolen" the game)

[dawn grove]

During the ||grimm fight? Before he goes up stand next to him and you'll only have to move slightly to dodge. It's a safe spot. Don't get hit by the dash before he goes up though.||

[raw ridge]

Got it why didn't i think of that you're a genius

[raw ridge]

Bought it on my laptop

Just prefer playing on mobile

[simple island]

the ergonomics look hellish, I cannot fathom why anyone would ever choose that but..
you are entitled to your own wrong opinions

[boreal spade]

Quarter of the screen is full of buttons lol

[raw ridge]

Not when you connect it to controller

[boreal spade]

Mb didn’t read your name

[sage remnant]

is this good for ||pantheons||

[acoustic sigil]

Not particularly

[raw ridge]

||Wayward compass|| isn't equiped 🥀

[sage remnant]

💀

[acoustic sigil]

||How long do you stay at full health that grubberfly has any meaningful impact||

[sage remnant]

mb

[boreal spade]

Would choose that over the focus ||charm|| he’s using

[sage remnant]

reply ping

[acoustic sigil]

Deleting the message doesn't delete the ping but gg

[sage remnant]

ik

😭

[sage remnant]

idrk

true

omds

mb

[boreal spade]

It’s not very long

[simple island]

usually you really really want to have ||strength in your pantheon loadout, that shit is just busted. +50% is too good to pass on||

it also just doesn't ||break ||in ||dreams||

[acoustic sigil]

||Quick slash, Shaman stone, spell twister and mark of pride or grubsong + soul catcher||

[boreal spade]

Yes || strength|| is awesome

[acoustic sigil]

But yeah what aze said

[sage remnant]

if i die with the|| fragile strength|| in the ||pantheon||, does it break?

[boreal spade]

No

[sage remnant]

alr i'll go buy

[boreal spade]

The place is in a dream

[simple island]

||quick slash|| is also really really good, but you can get mileage out of ||quick focus|| (though something tells me you are not really using it well)

[raw ridge]

Mb

[sage remnant]

need to beat the last ||grim|| dont i?

[boreal spade]

Lmao

[sage remnant]

cbb to max his ||charm|| pet thing

[acoustic sigil]

For what

[boreal spade]

The pet isn’t useful

[sage remnant]

go away 😭

[boreal spade]

It’s just for ||grimm||

[sage remnant]

i need him to fight ||grim ||to get the guy who turns it?

[boreal spade]

I thought you meant ||nkg||

[sage remnant]

yh i mean him

dont i need to beat him for the guy?

[boreal spade]

Not the harder version

The normal version yes

[sage remnant]

i'll go get the charm now

[boreal spade]

Did you already complete the dlc

[sage remnant]

i did his first fight

regular ||grimm||

[boreal spade]

Thats all you need to do

[sage remnant]

alr

how much geo?

to ||unbreakable ||and regular

[boreal spade]

15k for || unbreakable strength||

[sage remnant]

alr

[acoustic sigil]

||Why do you want to turn it unbreakable all of a sudden||

[sage remnant]

idk

completion

im 101 rn

[acoustic sigil]

Does not give a %

[sage remnant]

o

[boreal spade]

I’m being gatekept by ||p4|| for completion

[sage remnant]

i'll js get ||fragile then||

[acoustic sigil]

||Or well, having the charm does. But fragile or unbreakable doesn't matter||

[sage remnant]

same but ||p3|| for me

||p2|| is peak

[boreal spade]

Does the 2600 || essence || achievement give percent

[acoustic sigil]

2400

And yes

[sage remnant]

i am not doing that

im 2000

[boreal spade]

ok that’s what I’m misssjng

[sage remnant]

😭

[boreal spade]

I just need || failed champion||

[sage remnant]

is he the first ||dream boss||

i never remember their names

[acoustic sigil]

There is not really a first

[sage remnant]

the guy with the bug hammer

i called him first cz he is first main boss

[acoustic sigil]

Then yes that's him

[sage remnant]

o

i hate him

the|| no soul|| bit pmo

[lilac meteor]

Thanks bro I beat it

[dawn grove]

Nice

[sage remnant]

does ||fragile strength|| affect ||nailmasters glory||

[acoustic sigil]

No

[dawn grove]

I'm pretty sure ||strength doesn't affect nail arts||

[sage remnant]

alr

[tepid meadow]

but ||fury of the fallen|| does

and so does ||abyssal bloom from pale court||

[sage remnant]

alr ty

[sage remnant]

wheres this guy

[acoustic sigil]

||Kingdoms edge||

[sage remnant]

is he ||markoth||?

[tall shale]

okay so im at the last bench of ||p5||, what ||charms do i equip for pure vessel and absolute radiance?||

also is ||absrad|| just nohit or something else

[cobalt hull]

Whatever u find good I use ||shaman stone, strength, quickslash and spell twister||

[radiant raft]

I went with ||Unbreakabke strength, shamans stone, quick slash and unbreakable heart|| also ||absrad is the name of the boss||

[tall shale]

oh so basically my current build

alright

[cobalt hull]

A lot of ppl also use ||longnail|| over ||spell twister||

[tall shale]

oops

[ebon copper]

have you ever got to ||absrad|| before?

[tall shale]

nope

[cobalt hull]

No it’s just a harder version

[tall shale]

how much harder exactly

[cobalt hull]

A lot

[tall shale]

are there any new attacks or

[ebon copper]

than dont sweat it too much, just reach ||absrad|| and you made great progress

[cobalt hull]

A couple, mainly modified

[radiant raft]

It’s faster, tanker I think, and has ||a new phase||

[cobalt hull]

But once u reach it once u can practice it in || hall of gods||

[ebon copper]

there is 0% chance you beat ||absrad|| 1st try

[cobalt hull]

Yea

[ebon copper]

so dw

[tall shale]

thank god

[radiant raft]

Maybe they’ll get lucky and somehow win first try.

[cobalt hull]

Yeahhh,

[cobalt hull]

I died in like 2secs the first time I fought it

[tall shale]

alright ty ill go try beating it

[ebon copper]

goodluck

[cobalt hull]

Took me 3h to beat ||absrad|| for the first time

[ebon copper]

thats about normal

[tall shale]

i died to ||pure vessel||

[ebon copper]

thats unfortunate

[tall shale]

this game sucks

[radiant raft]

TC made the fight harder on purpose. Just so you specifically would fail.

It’s all their fault not yours.

[tall shale]

exactly

[ebon copper]

hellyeah

[tall shale]

worst thing is that i beat ||pure vessel|| like 3 times

once in ||p4|| and 2 times in ||hall of gods||

[ebon copper]

thats not enough to counter the stress, get at least 100% consistent on ||attuned pv||

[radiant raft]

Try not thinking about the hour of time that might be lossed if you fail and pretend it’s a ||HoG|| attempt.

[ebon copper]

id honestly even recommend getting like above 60% wr on ||ascended|| is reasonable practice

[ebon copper]

i mean no matter how you look at it, 3 wins on ||pv|| is not enough practice

[shrewd basin]

I died at the end of ||the path of pain|| any tips

[radiant raft]

Yeah but that was just general help.

[ebon copper]

be prepared to fight ig

[ebon copper]

fair enough

[radiant raft]

Use ||HiveBlood and bring a combat charm and spam DDark||

[shrewd basin]

It wasn't even that bit it's the saws just before

[ebon copper]

how did you die there?

[shrewd basin]

Idkkkk

[ebon copper]

the ||soul totems|| are infinite

[shrewd basin]

I just got frustrated by it so I didn't heal

I changed out my charms

[ebon copper]

bru

i think i may be able to do ||pop|| under 10 minutes

ma try later today

[shrewd basin]

I don't get how to do the last bit before the fight

[ebon copper]

i mean, its just ||pogos||

id say that except the very last bit of that room, everything in that room is pretty tame

[floral topaz]

Give me your best tips for ||pantheon 3||
Especially about ||zote and sly||

[crisp isle]

Use ||ddark|| a lot on ||zote||×don't get too near him or else he'll walk into you

[ebon copper]

||#hk-help message||

[sage remnant]

where do i start the ||fragile flower|| quest?

specifically

not js a certain area

[dire burrow]

||Absrad||

[sage remnant]

???

[ebon copper]

at the ||grey mourner||

[sage remnant]

[plush yoke]

Any tips and tricks for ||the second hornet fight?||

[sage remnant]

dont get hit

[ebon copper]

she, and in ||resting grouds|| far right side

[dire burrow]

She’s at ||below Resting grounds||

[sage remnant]

mb

ty

[dire burrow]

You need to ||dive into the coffin||

[sage remnant]

??/

next tot he broken one?

nvm nvm

i think i already have

😭

is this her

[dire burrow]

No

[sage remnant]

o

where

[dire burrow]

||There are breakable areas in the hallway||

Just jump and attack

To find it

[sage remnant]

ceiling?

[dire burrow]

Yeah

[sage remnant]

alr tyty

whos this

looks like the women who helps with the ||shade||

[dire burrow]

||Doesnt matter you got Soul Eater, I have no idea anyways||

[sage remnant]

o

[dire burrow]

||That charm is pretty useful for…. Future battles||

[sage remnant]

where do i have to go with the ||flower||?

||white lady||?

[dire burrow]

Uhhh

About that

[sage remnant]

yh?

[dire burrow]

||Queen’s Gardens||

[sage remnant]

||white lady||?

[dire burrow]

||Above the stag station there is an entrance to a grave||

[sage remnant]

??????????????????????

which one

the ||queens station||?

[dire burrow]

||Queen’s Garden||

[sage remnant]

?

alr

[dire burrow]

Also you ||can’t get hit, can’t teleport, can’t use the stag, can’t save and log out to cheese, no nothing||

[sage remnant]

alr

[dire burrow]

||You can use the Tram but that’s not useful||

[sage remnant]

do igotta take it here?

the dead end above the ||stag||

[dire burrow]

||Yeah that||

[sage remnant]

alr ty

[dire burrow]

Tip

[sage remnant]

im not American

[dire burrow]

||You can kill every enemy then||

[sage remnant]

???
wdym

[dire burrow]

||Go back to grey mourner, make sure to not save at a bench||

[sage remnant]

what

i saved at hers

so i can js reopen when i die

?

[dire burrow]

||Then your path will only have a couple of enemies that respawn when entering a room but the other enemies are dead||

No uhh

Plan out your route

[sage remnant]

idrc that much

😭

i js want my 9th ||mask||

idek if that even needed a spoiler

[dire burrow]

||Kill everything in your path then pick up the flower, then proceed to do the quest with like 3 enemies in your path||

[sage remnant]

everyth respawns?

when u swap room

[dire burrow]

No

They only do if you save

[sage remnant]

alr

[dire burrow]

Some of them still do

[sage remnant]

ty for ur help

[dire burrow]

But it’s mostly the ones that stand still

Or not threatening at all

[sage remnant]

alr

[dire burrow]

||Another tip, since you aren’t taking damage anyways you can overcharm while doing the quest||

[sage remnant]

o yh

i'll do after thsi run

if i die

😭

[dire burrow]

Wdym if you die

[sage remnant]

or get hit

mb

[dire burrow]

||Set up a dreamgate at Grey Mourner||

||Every time the flower breaks just teleport back||

||Doesnt save the game + Instant profit||

[sage remnant]

cant i js reopen at tp the bench ?

[dire burrow]

||You just have to kill the enemies once unless you bench by accident or you have to leave the game because of irl stuff||

[sage remnant]

i have my ||dreamagte at the pantheon place||

[dire burrow]

||Yeah but the enemies would respawn||

Sooooo

[sage remnant]

oh

i'll js do my own thing 😭

ts coinfusing

[shrewd basin]

Its so hardd

[sage remnant]

my ||charms ||rn

[dire burrow]

||You can just sacrifice a little bit of convenience for not having to kill every enemy every time you do the quest||

[sage remnant]

is it really worth all this prep 😭

my ||grubsong|| is carrying

[dire burrow]

That’s up to you to decide 🤷‍♂️

[terse dagger]

||I was playing hollow knight and I got this weird bug where my little bug guy respawned at a bench after taking enough hits, is there any fix for this?||

[sage remnant]

so u died?

💀

[dire burrow]

Spoiler that shit

[dusk glade]

You can just go for it without killing the ennemies it take just a little bit longer if you fail

[terse dagger]

I dunno how :3

[terse dagger]

I dunno how ::3

[dire burrow]

||

Put a || before and after your message

[sage remnant]

is ur s||oul vessel at 2/3 and shattered||

[terse dagger]

||Yeah||

[sage remnant]

so u died

idiot

go back to where u died and get ur ||shade||

[terse dagger]

||that’s a weird bug||

[radiant raft]

The best way to fix it is to

[sage remnant]

its called death

[dire burrow]

Don’t die ig

[dusk glade]

That's cool
Insulting peoples because they don't know something

[sage remnant]

💀

isnt that deep

+they prob trolling cz after i said they died they still called it abug

😭

[zinc verge]

bruh like
how dumb do you have to be?

[terse dagger]

||whenever I tell people about the bug they say get good like that’s gonna fix anything||

[dire burrow]

Anyways get your ||shade, it has all your money and your soul meter will be capped at a lower level||

Wait

I have the perfect idea

To prevent this bug

[radiant raft]

Just don’t get hit and it won’t happen

[dire burrow]

||Play Steel Soul-||

[zinc verge]

nah you are just the dumbest person I know honestly
how do you exist?

[dire burrow]

Nah bro

[terse dagger]

||i was born probably idk lol||

[sage remnant]

💀

[dire burrow]

||Play Steel Soul||

Very easy

[sage remnant]

leave them alone bru 😭

[dire burrow]

I assure you this bug will never happen again once you do this

[sage remnant]

😭🙏

[zinc verge]

get smarter or smth

[terse dagger]

||I don’t see that option||

[sage remnant]

u gotta beat || the holow knight || first

[terse dagger]

||why would I beat myself?||

[dire burrow]

Oh yeah you have to see the end credits first

[dusk glade]

Stop please

[dire burrow]

Some people just have a weird fetish

[terse dagger]

||for bugs?||

[hybrid plinth]

There is, I believe it's discussed in the ||first precept of Zote||

[terse dagger]

||who the hell is that||

[sage remnant]

i think u should take ur problem to #1057825333841240104

[sage remnant]

maybe u downloaded something

[dusk glade]

Stop

[sage remnant]

this doesnt sound like the normal game

ngl

[dusk glade]

Just stop

That's not funny

[hybrid plinth]

Anyway, the reason I came, I could use some advice

[terse dagger]

Hit me, I gotchu

[hybrid plinth]

I'm trying to beat ||p3, shell binding on||, but I just keep dying towards the end

[dire burrow]

If you insist-

[hybrid plinth]

||What can I do to safely fight Hornet and especially Sly?||

[sage remnant]

dodge

[dire burrow]

||You have to be slightly more aggressive with hornet, she doesn’t have that much HP iirc||

[dusk glade]

||nail arts for sly ?||

[hybrid plinth]

I had a very good run going a while ago, but got hit by the ||greatly exaggerated hitbox of great slash||

[terse dagger]

||Maybe mark of pride and keep distance||

[hybrid plinth]

It's funny, I had an easier time with no ||charms|| than I did with ||full power but four health||

[radiant raft]

Keep distance and wait until they come to you to attack. Also you can practice them ||radiant|| in ||HoG|| until you’re confident

[dire burrow]

As for the ||Great Nailsage Sly, maintain a single dash of distance, if you have too much distance he physically wont leave any openings||

[hybrid plinth]

I suppose I could just practice with the stipulation that I'm only allowed to use the ||top four masks on my bar||

[terse dagger]

||wait a mean lady took all my geo||

[dire burrow]

||Ascended also works||

[hybrid plinth]

What I generally tend to do is stand back until he ||does the three hit or the ground slam||, then move in and land a hit

||Nail art if I bothered to charge it||

[radiant raft]

How many masks do you have?

[hybrid plinth]

||9||

[dire burrow]

||Shell binding, 4||

[hybrid plinth]

My god, the one gameplay term that doesn't need to be tagged

[dire burrow]

Whatever you do make sure ||he doesn’t hit you with Great Slash||

[hybrid plinth]

but yeah, the idea of the ||bindings|| is that ||you get reverted to base stats||, except for ||soul||, which is ||limited to one cast||

[terse dagger]

||the lady took my geo 😞 ||

[hybrid plinth]

I never get hit by that, but I did in my last good run, despite being ||a full double jump above him and on the other side of him||

[dusk glade]

No at the start of the game you have 5 masks

[stoic cedar]

Along with charms, geo, map, bench, and so on, there r a couple of white listed terms

[dire burrow]

||I’m pretty sure the nail is set to the second upgrade if your nail is pure iirc||

||Could be wrong||

[hybrid plinth]

Is it?

[dire burrow]

I think so but I’m too tired to check

[hybrid plinth]

I figured the higher than base damage came from my ||strength charm||

[dire burrow]

In fact I will sleep in

54321

[stoic cedar]

||nail binding reduces nail damage to 13 if u r at pure nail||

[hybrid plinth]

speaking of which, here's my charm build

I suppose I could swap out ||shaman stone for mark of pride||

[cobalt hull]

For ||sly, the third attack of his combos leave him opposed for a hit or two. So what I do is I wait in the corner, once he does his ground combo I jump onto the wall, jump off as he jumps then get two attacks in and dash away. As for second face dash away and use spells or get a hit in||

[zinc verge]

||sharp shadow|| is mid as fuck

[terse dagger]

||that’s kinda my binding but sharp shadow is replaced by mark of pride and shaman stone is replaced by unbreakable heart||

[zinc verge]

skill issue if you die to ||hornet||

[hybrid plinth]

I typically handle ||Phase 2 by standing dead center, then walking away when he moves in for a hit||

it's designed to be walkable

[terse dagger]

I’m gonna skill issue you

[dusk glade]

Oh no

[hybrid plinth]

Get this, nerd, it's a marathon, not a sprint

[zinc verge]

says the one who doesn't know what dying is

[terse dagger]

I’m tired of people defending that random eyesore of a bug

[cobalt hull]

Yeah that works too, also u can ||shriek right as the phase starts and do a damage tank to like half the phase||

[hybrid plinth]

except for ||hu and the collector||, those are basically steals

[hybrid plinth]

I don't like to tank, I don't have much room for error

[ebon copper]

||collector|| can be really fkd post game

[cobalt hull]

I see, u can do the fight normally with practice in ||HoG|| it’s not too bad once u get the timings for his attacks

[terse dagger]

||can someone explain the bug that makes my stomach feel tingly whenever I see Grimm?||

[hybrid plinth]

does ||heart|| work with ||bindings||?

[hybrid plinth]

It's called Tumblr Sexyman

[terse dagger]

Any fix?

[cobalt hull]

Not with ||charm binding|| but I think so otherwise

[ebon copper]

not with ||charm binding||, but the rest ye

[hybrid plinth]

Watch both seasons of Helluva Boss

[terse dagger]

Already have, second season wasn’t very good

[stoic cedar]

I would suggest ||great slash and shade soul for sly frenzy phase. Dash out of the way when sly gets close, then turn around for a gs when sly makes a stop. If u have the soul u should go for a shade soul instead of a gs. If timed correctly u have a good chance of getting a multi hit||

[hybrid plinth]

I think I have my crutch then

[ebon copper]

based asf

[cobalt hull]

Oh also when he does any ||nail art u can get a hit in and dash away||

[hybrid plinth]

I'll take that, and ||nailmaster||

[terse dagger]

First season was good tho

[hybrid plinth]

Oh, I have an idea

does ||cyclone slash|| parry?

[ebon copper]

2nd wasnt bad either, just worse

[ebon copper]

no

[cobalt hull]

Just practice it in ||HoG|| on ||attuned|| and practice the timings it’s not too difficult of a fight once u get it

[terse dagger]

Yeah, too much romance drama and not enough funny

[ebon copper]

i liked both seasons a lot tho

peak story

[terse dagger]

Best character?

[ebon copper]

Stolas

[terse dagger]

Like the character but they treat him like he can do no wrong too much, imo fizz is the best

[ebon copper]

hes fun too ye

gets a lot of development on screen

[terse dagger]

This sure is a good talk about hollow knight

[dusk glade]

Hum can we move the conversation to an appropriate channel ?

[ebon copper]

#off-topic

prob

[terse dagger]

Hollow knight silksong

[pearl thunder]

anyone has tricks for beating ||grimmkin novice?||
i'm running ||longnail and dashmaster|| but wow it's a painfully slow process (i'm at the ||crystal peak one. last one :")||

[halcyon girder]

We need to clear the ||p4|| for ||112%|| ?

[radiant raft]

Yes.

[radiant raft]

Use ||spells to blast the little fucker||

[hybrid plinth]

I won

||heart|| was the deciding factor

that, and the fast charging ||nail arts|| helped a lot

[pearl thunder]

(｀_´)ゞguess i gotta charge up on soul before i head in next round. i did get the ||dirtmouth entrance for crystal peak|| so that should make my life way easier

[solid heart]

||I just discovered they scale with the nail wtf, what nail do you have?||

[pearl thunder]

||1!|| i got the ||first upgrade but no pale ore yet :p||

[solid heart]

So they have 90 hp
||Your nail does 9, while shaman vs does 20. Meaning they die in 5 shaman vs hits. Even though doubles are free you don't even need to lol||

[pearl thunder]

huh
interesting

[cobalt hull]

Nice work good luck for ||P4 and P5||

[trim stratus]

||What is the point of giving my geo to the pale king? I dont have enough for a map now :(||

[dusk glade]

|| if you donate a certain amount of geo you will get something ! ||

[neat karma]

||But dont worry about giving more than you need to, as all the excess will sgay in you and it will only take what it needs for when you have more to offer||

[vale tulip]

any tips for the ||2nd collosseum||

[sick mesa]

What charms are you rocking and what level is your ||nail||

[hallow nymph]

Hello guys!
I'm encountering an issue with my DualShock 4 controller while playing Hollow Knight on macOS 15.0.1.

The controller connects successfully and is detected by the game, but input is not registering during gameplay. Initially, the game correctly recognized it as a PS4 controller, but after some time, it started showing up as an Xbox controller within the interface. Since then, button inputs have stopped working entirely, even though the system and other games continue to recognize the controller correctly.

I've tried both USB and Bluetooth connections, and the controller works properly in other applications. This issue seems isolated to Hollow Knight.

Is there any workaround or configuration fix available for this situation? I'd greatly appreciate any guidance you could provide.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

[ebon copper]

most important for ||colo|| imo is to map out healing opportunities

[ebon copper]

this would probably get more attention in #modding-discussion

[hallow nymph]

Okey

Common fixes for controller issues

Try these separately first, but if they don't work, then you may need to try a combination of them.

• Use Steam's controller settings, enable Steam Inputs from the game properties, and check controller configuration support through Steam's Big Picture mode
• Toggle "Controller Native Input" in the game, found at Main Menu ᐅ Options ᐅ Controller. Restart your game after changing it.
• Unplug your controller before launching the game, then plug it back in on the title screen.
• Use a program to map controller inputs to keyboard inputs, either through Steam or a third party program
  • This is usually only necessary for unusual controllers, or when the above options don't work.
    Visual examples for Steam settings:

||i got to infected crossroads, but im a bit confused on what to do. where should i go next? the crossroads appears to be the same just with goo everywhere||

||ok, i havent done the dreamers so should i do that next?||

ok

[drowsy yarrow]

What things does the save analyzer miss? I got the ||fog canyon|| note that @hoary anvil mentioned. But I also noticed it didn't care if I found the ||lifeblood cocoon|| next to the ||mantis lords||.

I'm wondering now how many ||breakable walls|| I've missed too

Yeah, mostly @ebon copper or anyone familiar with the save analyzer

[ebon copper]

you can check breakable walls and such by clicking ctrl shift i

[drowsy yarrow]

Ohhh of course. I forgot about that tip

[ebon copper]

and opening the interractables dropmenu

its a bit of a fkd ui in there, but im sure youll be fine

[drowsy yarrow]

Yeah, I'm fairly comfortable with chrome devtools

ty

I realized after like 20 hours that I didn't need to start a new file for this. I could have just made a backup of my main file and use that one for analyzer completion (it was at 94%, but with some things intentionally skipped like ||Salubra's Blessing||). Oh well, it was fun doing it again.

All I have left to do is ||p5ab, r1-5, radhog, tuner memory, and eternal ordeal||.

[hybrid plinth]

||P5 bosses|| have the ||ascended differences||, but do they have ||ascended health?||

[acoustic sigil]

Love you to bot

[hybrid plinth]

||r1-5?|| What's ||Radhog or Tuner Memory||?

oh, right, ||Hall of Gods Radiance||

[acoustic sigil]

You can check out all the save file flags at ||https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/||

[drowsy yarrow]

They have ||attuned health||

[hybrid plinth]

ah, good

is there a guide that lists the ||differences for each boss||?

[drowsy yarrow]

||r1-5|| means ||all hitless pantheons||
||radhog|| means ||radiant hall of gods||
||tuner memory|| is a rare event that can happen when entering ||godhome||

[hybrid plinth]

Hmm, so I should enter and exit until I get it?

[drowsy yarrow]

yeah

[hybrid plinth]

or is it ||menderbug|| type odds, where it just isn't worth it?

[drowsy yarrow]

as I understand it anyways, I haven't actually done that yet

[hybrid plinth]

I'm sure there's a flag that can be flipped

[plush bane]

is there a way to manipulate my save in a way that ||zote|| is considered dead

[hybrid plinth]

You COULD just do a ||steel soul|| run where you ignore ||Zote|| though

[plush bane]

i dont wanna do ||grey prince zote|| in ||p3||

[ebon copper]

there is 2% and its only possible to get after having done ||p3|| for ||tuner mwmory||

[hybrid plinth]

Give it some practice in ||the hall of gods||, you can do this, I have faith in you

He can be a bit annoying, but there are very few times where damage is unavoidable

[plush bane]

i may have flipped the flag off so his statue is not there

i can get through ||p3|| easily except that boss

[ebon copper]

than he wont be in ||p3||

[plush bane]

but he is for some reason

do i have to reenter ||godhome||

[drowsy yarrow]

I think ||menderbug|| is also a 2% chance

[hybrid plinth]

Well, I'm ||39/42|| ||p5||

[ebon copper]

than the ||godhome statue|| should be there too

[ebon copper]

so you are eligable to get it

[plush bane]

theres not a statue, but i still face him. is it a bug?

[hybrid plinth]

Yup, and you need a way to stop the landing animation to even get it

[ebon copper]

there should be a statue

idk

[drowsy yarrow]

I just ||ddark|| over and over

[hybrid plinth]

I think every enemy in this game is a bug

[hybrid plinth]

Where do you get the soul?

[drowsy yarrow]

and when I run out of ||soul||, I ||dream nail|| the ||husk bully||

[hybrid plinth]

I see

[ebon copper]

or ||salubra||

[drowsy yarrow]

Three hits with ||dream wielder|| is a refill

[shrewd basin]

I thought ||ascabsrad|| was bad ||immortal light|| is insane

[plush bane]

im going to try reentering ||godhome|| and see if that changes anything

[ebon copper]

👍

[ebon copper]

why u doing ||imm light||?

[shrewd basin]

I'm not I just watched it

[ebon copper]

ah

makes sense

yea, imm ||lights hard||

[hybrid plinth]

Hang on, do modded boss names need to be tagged?

[ebon copper]

||2 absrads|| is easier

[shrewd basin]

Idk I just did in case

[ebon copper]

[hybrid plinth]

let's test

||ancient aspid||

[ebon copper]

no, but yes

[hybrid plinth]

guess not

[ebon copper]

just tag them

[shrewd basin]

The climb is wild

[ebon copper]

even the 1st phase is difficult, and it just keeps getting worse

[shrewd basin]

Real

[ebon copper]

the attack with the orbs creeping up to you on platforms phase made me mold so hard

[shrewd basin]

Still haven't beat ||absrad on ascended||

Done literally everything else

[ebon copper]

what part do you struggle with?

[shrewd basin]

I get to climb and die on final phase

[drowsy yarrow]

Here's my guide: ||#hk-help message||

[ebon copper]

heal on the 1st platforms of climb, it wont always work, but its decently good a chance to get some hp recovered

[shrewd basin]

I can do it easy on ||attuned||

[ebon copper]

climb is something that kinda just clicked for me after loads of time on the boss

[drowsy yarrow]

check the example video for an ||ab|| clear

[ebon copper]

after like 50hrs or so, i finally get how the ||beams work on climb
||

[shrewd basin]

It's just that by the time I make it to the top I'm basically two hit so I panic and make mistakes

[fluid garden]

||it does 4 damage youre always basically two hit 😭 ||

[shrewd basin]

||No cuz you have 9 health||

So it's 3

[fluid garden]

probably spoiltag this

[shrewd basin]

Yeah probs good idea

[vale tulip]

how do u beat the ||electric soul twister guy in the colosseum?||

[shrewd basin]

Hit it

Smack it around

[fluid garden]

always stay moving, ||spells|| are useful

[ebon copper]

||shriek|| if you are lazy

[shrewd basin]

I ||shriek||

[sage remnant]

[dusk glade]

||something very useful||

No

[sage remnant]

[fallen heath]

Alr

[autumn garnet]

Hey guys maybe being francophobic against strangers online even as a joke isn't cool

[fallen heath]

Dawg im obv joking

[fallen heath]

Is the ||dark downward slam|| everything

[dusk glade]

It's very funny...

[fallen heath]

World peace

[ruby shuttle]

yes

[dense agate]

wild crazy work

[vale tulip]

should i use ||quick slash rather than soul catcher in a spell build||

[karmic glade]

pretty sure there's also a ||grub|| but yeah ||ddark|| is the main thing

[ruby shuttle]

||qslash|| is always a good charm to use no matter what

[fallen heath]

Ye i did that

[ruby shuttle]

but if your only using ||spells|| for whatever reason, then yeah

[boreal spade]

I never take it off

[dawn grove]

||Quick slash is way better I never take it off. If you prefer spells use something like shaman stone or spell twister instead of soul catcher||

[neat karma]

Hello channrl that i hate

[tame trout]

What happens when im ||overcharmed||?

[solid heart]

||double damage||

[tame trout]

I take?

[neat karma]

Yuh

[tame trout]

Ok ty y'all

Is it worth it tho? Should i keep it

[livid shoal]

Are you a good player?

[tame trout]

I just started the game i barely know the basics, but I'd say im a good player overall ye

[livid shoal]

Keep it if you want

[neat karma]

Depends on how good you are at avoiding damage on whatever task youre doing

Probably yeah

[tame trout]

I keep losing my geo anyway :P

[tame trout]

What should i have before doing that, like a must have

[neat karma]

Well i dont know what point in the game youre at, but generally getting upgrades is never bad

[tame trout]

._.

[neat karma]

Any kind of upgrade really

[tame trout]

Is there anything else upgradable?

[neat karma]

||be it nail, getting charms or more notches, new abilities etc||

[tame trout]

I have || dash, ground slam thing and crystal dash||

Also ||mantis claw and ofc the 1st spell||

||i upgraded my nail one too, didn't find ores yet||

[neat karma]

A good thing that i believe you can get right now is going ||all the way bottom right in crystal peaks, there will be a hole you need to cdash through||

Do you want other hints on stuff you could get or is that enough

[tame trout]

Im pretty sure i finished that area, do u mean the hole leading to ||that mysterious place i forgot it's name?||

[tame trout]

I just want general knowledge not anything spoiling my game

[fathom creek]

you probably haven't finished any area I can't lie

[neat karma]

||Yeah, but go across instead of falling||

Bout said area

||you obtained something from down there right?||

[tame trout]

Im pretty sure i finished 90% at least of all areas, but ||city of tears||

[fathom creek]

idk seems unlikely

[tame trout]

Something like what

[tame trout]

Why's that

[fathom creek]

just because of how the game is

[neat karma]

Its pretty unmissable really

[tame trout]

Oo well I'll check again ty

[tame trout]

Js tell me T-T

[neat karma]

Sorry didnt want to spoil you incase you turned around right away, ||but the general goal of the game is heading for those big masks that appear in your map, so a good goal to set is going for them and figure out what you need to do to get there||

[tame trout]

Oh ye i found them when i first entered, they tped me to some random place and i found the ||essence|| lady

I also killed ||the warrior of something|| he gave me lots of it

[neat karma]

Yeah, but since you didnt mention getting ||dreamnail and it being quite an important aspect of the game i wamted to be safe||

[tame trout]

Oh ye i got it

[neat karma]

||some rooms that were previously empty to you might be worth checking out since warrior dreams dont appear until you gat dnail||

[tame trout]

U mean the grave bosses?

[neat karma]

Yeah, thats what theyre called

[tame trout]

Aha i already killed two

That warrior and some genuis :D

[sudden lintel]

||ASCEND ASCEND ASCEND WITH GORB||

[dusk glade]

No we don't need to spoil someone

[sudden lintel]

[tame trout]

Real

[sudden lintel]

who is all powerful

[dusk glade]

Oh you have already found it

[sudden lintel]

and doesnt give a damn if you edit the message so its hidden

[neat karma]

The bot is based because it doesnt care if i do it

[sudden lintel]

who else is the genius then

[sudden lintel]

crazy

[tame trout]

Ye i killed him too

[dusk glade]

Hum him...

[fathom creek]

classic mod abuse sigh

[tame trout]

Still didn't get the ||200 essences reward||

[sudden lintel]

crazy

[neat karma]

Nah mod abuse doesnt apply to me because im based or something

[tame trout]

I really hope it's that ||walking in acid or the black dash thing fr||

[neat karma]

I should apply for owner i swear i wouldnt delete the server, ,,,,

[fathom creek]

yknow that that's how dictators rise to power right? They are too based.. or something?

[sudden lintel]

just give me every emoji then for no reason frfr

[neat karma]

Dictators are mid actually

[fathom creek]

says the almost dictator

[neat karma]

I could never

[sudden lintel]

bro needs to wait for a while for that to be obtained

[tame trout]

How do i get ||double jump|| at least

[sudden lintel]

[neat karma]

Direction, nearby area, or direct specifics?

[fathom creek]

you'll get there when you get there and by that I mean in 200 hrs

[tame trout]

[tame trout]

Wait ig i entered this place for a second

[sudden lintel]

crazy how the bot didnt see that

[neat karma]

You misspelled it

[sudden lintel]

still should have counted

[neat karma]

We cannot have a trillion misspellings of each word thatd take eons minimum bestie

[tame trout]

What ||charms|| must i have for the start

[fathom creek]

that's what AI is for right?

[sudden lintel]

fr

[tame trout]

Im at 12h idek if im at the start anymore

[sudden lintel]

?

[fathom creek]

yea still kind of beginning

[neat karma]

We will not use ai

[tame trout]

What

[fathom creek]

lol it's not really bad to use AI for menial tasks (imo)

[sudden lintel]

ai isnt all bad its just that companys over use it for absolutely no reason

[sudden lintel]

start of what

[tame trout]

Of the game

._.

[fathom creek]

none of them are required or anything

[neat karma]

Generative ai IS bad, assistive ai is good, we will still not use ai for the bot

[tame trout]

Ye ik i mean what'd help

Normal play not bosses

[fathom creek]

send ur charms

[tame trout]

Okay

[neat karma]

This is not a good way to tell, ive seen people at around your point in the game both much earlier in time, and WAY later aswell

[sudden lintel]

map and inv ss better to tell

[neat karma]

Novelty i suppose is the reason why its used that much

[sudden lintel]

||not even shaman stone is CRAZY||

[tame trout]

Ye ik it's pirating let me be🙏🏼

[sudden lintel]

we will let the dictator decide

[tame trout]

HOW IS THAT A SPOILING

[sudden lintel]

||ddive and ddark are like op tho||

[fathom creek]

yea also to tell shareholders: "Look we're using the latest technology that definitely improves our product trust".

[neat karma]

Like literally everything ingame needs tags, mainly because people absolutely adore loopholes and ruining experiences

[tame trout]

Huh

[sudden lintel]

dang bro isnt even there yet

[tame trout]

What's ||ddark||

[neat karma]

Basically if we arent strict round here people will go far beyond the sun to NOT use tags

[neat karma]

?tag uncspoilers btw

[languid radish]

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

[neat karma]

Thought i had sent it

[sudden lintel]

forget i said it

[fathom creek]

classic dyno only working for the mod

[neat karma]

Please read this message

[sudden lintel]

[tame trout]

So hey what ||charms|| should i use

||I've finished the game 112% but I'm trying to beat P5 I'm stuck at winged nosk at the moment and was wondering whether there was any tips ? (Current charm build: unbreakable strength, quick slash, long nail & carefree melody)||

[haughty parcel]

Don't get hit

[velvet trellis]

Do I need to explore ||Kingdoms Edge|| to progress in the story?

[haughty parcel]

||that's where you find Hornet Sentinel||

||so yes||

[dusk glade]

Yes

[velvet trellis]

||Colosseum of Fools?||

[dusk glade]

-# maybe not necessary to say the name...

[haughty parcel]

||Colosseum*||

[velvet trellis]

Sorry

[dusk glade]

...

[velvet trellis]

I wrote ||Spell||

[dusk glade]

Yes

[velvet trellis]

Forgeting that their in the game

So I do need to do ||Colosseum of Fools||

[haughty parcel]

||not for the story to progress no, but you get some goodies there||

[velvet trellis]

Oh ok thxs

[olive mirage]

Have you been practicing in ||hall of gods?||

[velvet trellis]

How do I get ||Monarch Wings||

[olive mirage]

There is actually very little you need to do for the “main story” but there are always reasons to go everywhere.

[velvet trellis]

Oh ok

Thank you

[haughty parcel]

||by beating a boss in the ancient basin||

[velvet trellis]

Welp I'm cooked

😦

[vale tulip]

how do u know the amount of ||grubbies|| youve collected

[velvet trellis]

idk

[haughty parcel]

You guess

[vale tulip]

😭😭

how much is the max amount

[haughty parcel]

I've completely forgotten

[devout walrus]

||48|| I think

Maybe more

[haughty parcel]

nope

46

[loud cradle]

do deaths in the ||white palace|| count as a death for ||steel soul?||

[neat karma]

Yes

[haughty parcel]

Sadly yes

it's ended so many of my save files

[drowsy yarrow]

I almost lost mine a few days ago because I underestimated one section of the ||white palace||. I also almost lost to a platforming area in ||crystal peaks||. Went down to 1 health in each case.

[stuck heron]

And you have to start from the very beginning?

[signal drift]

anyone have tips for ||p5||?

[drowsy yarrow]

Yeah, in ||steel soul, if you die (including in white palace), you can only delete the save file. You can't play on it anymore||

[stuck heron]

I would die straight on the ||howling cliffs|| ngl

[ebon copper]

was it the ||dash|| section with the ||saws||?

like the spacing one

i struggle with that more than ||pop||

[drowsy yarrow]

||P5 Tips:

Charms

• Strength, Shaman Stone, Quick Slash
• With the remaining 2 notches, choose from Spell Twister, Sbody, Nailmasters, Grubsong, Soul Catcher, Longnail
• If you don't really use spells, you can replace shaman stone with quick focus or mark of pride

General

• Play through just to see where you die
• Practice whichever boss you died to in the hall of gods until you can beat it on ascended
• Repeat

For advice on specific bosses, see the tip catalogue

[drowsy yarrow]

It was the long stretch without any ||soul refills|| after the bench after the ||pop|| wall I think. I went down to 1 health at the very last spike thing before the refill.

[ebon copper]

ahh, that makes sense too

tho, i just got ||hiveblood for wp on ss||

[drowsy yarrow]

I was a bit too careless in both cases

[simple island]

you can just ||dreamgate ||out though right ?

[ebon copper]

ye

i mean, you can also just savequit

[simple island]

yeah but that is cheesier

[ebon copper]

i dont mind that kinda cheese tbh

[drowsy yarrow]

I resolved to only quit if I wasn't in immediate danger

[simple island]

||dreamgate has a cost and can't be done in combat||
quit outs are op cuz they can literally be done in situations in which you would otherwise 100% die

[hybrid plinth]

I'm having a lot of trouble with ||NKG||

[drowsy yarrow]

but yeah I find ||dream gate|| acceptable in ||ss||

[ebon copper]

i mean, i never savequitted out of combat anyway, it wouldve been pointless to do so

[hybrid plinth]

I just keep getting hit when I try to pogo or ||dash|| towards him

[ebon copper]

if you mostly complete a file before ||ss||, you shouldnt have any problem with bosses

[ebon copper]

try different tactics

just experiment until you find something you can do consistently

[solid heart]

||dreamgating out of a dream doesn't cost essence||

[ebon copper]

didnt know that

[hybrid plinth]

At the very least, i just want to unlock ||Absrad||

[solid heart]

Because you don't ||tp to the Dreamgate, you just leave the dream as if you died.
Especial effect in godhome, that dreamnailing out of a pantheon/hog challenge leaves you still in godhome||

[hybrid plinth]

I don't need to win, but being able to practice her might help

[ebon copper]

i see

[hybrid plinth]

hold up, ||dreamgates|| have a cost?

[solid heart]

Yes, ||1 essence||

[simple island]

Has a cost as in requires you to stand still, requires you to get the item…
Not the physical cost

Anyway

[solid heart]

Well, in ||WP you can stay still for as long as you want||

[drowsy yarrow]

||NKG Tips:

Memorize his moves, he only has so many, and they don't overlap. Focus on his body language, and it will tell you what he is about to do.

Moves

• Flame Uppercut: Dash through him then walk towards him a little, and you should land in a safe zone
• Flame Pillars: slowly walk towards him and hit him as you pass under
• Bats: Jump over the second one, dash through the middle, and land a few hits
• Flame Kick: Jump in the air and stall or pogo him
• Cape Pillars: stay calm, there's enough time to react
• Pufferfish: Stand far away, look ahead, and don't jump if you don't have to

[solemn ibex]

that's ||radient|| i need ||acsended||

[glad lava]

The same advice applies

[drowsy yarrow]

Yeah, exactly the same, just don't ||overcharm||

[solemn ibex]

i'm stupid

[ebon copper]

on ||ascended|| you can do ||fury|| tactics too if you wanna

not sure if its easier or harder tho

[solemn ibex]

i have 10 hp so i die on 3 hits

[ebon copper]

10?

[solemn ibex]

ye

[ebon copper]

how tf u counting 10?

[solemn ibex]

i'm using ||fragil health||

[ebon copper]

than you should have 11

if you have ||10 with heart, than you are missing a mask shard||

[solemn ibex]

shi

[ebon copper]

go get the mask

[solemn ibex]

i'll look for the remainings on yt

I want to do || white flower ending || but || grey mourner is gone since I did the quest || is she somewhere else?

[hybrid plinth]

The two that really get me are the|| bats and the kick||, and neither of them are because I react to it too slowly. I try to ||pogo the kick, but always miss and land in the flames||, and for the ||bats||, I just end up dashing too far. I need ||sharp shadow|| for some previous battles, especially ||brooding mawlek||, but the ||extra distance just gets me hit on Grimm||

but only ||NKG||

This is my current build for ||p5||

[glad lava]

||you can get new flowers from the grave you delivered the flower to||

[hybrid plinth]

I don't usually use ||heart||, but it's saved my ass a few times

I was considering replacing it with ||fury||

[ebon copper]

ngl, ||brooding mawlek|| shouldnt be a reason for you to change builds

also, you absolutely dont need ||sharpshadow||. its bad in every fight

[sage remnant]

whats that fifth one?

[drowsy yarrow]

I don't even try to ||pogo|| him as he's passing under. I ||dash|| all the way to where he stops and ||pogo|| him as he stands up

[neat karma]

Looks good but id remove ||sharpshadow||

[ebon copper]

use ||twister||

[neat karma]

||spell twister could do you good, soul catcher if you dont use spells that much||

[drowsy yarrow]

And practice new ||mawlek|| strategies

[glad lava]

||shape of unn|| is also good

[solemn ibex]

set a ||dreamgate|| where you can get the ||flower|| and then clear the path from enemies and then you'll be fine

[ebon copper]

you can register 2 hits if you perfect parry him while hes going under

really satisfying

also, if you really need ||ss|| for ||mawlek||, you could just swap builds after

[drowsy yarrow]

I might try that. I've been using ||narts|| only against him for ||ab||

[ebon copper]

||p5|| does let you do that afterall

[ebon copper]

makes sense

[neat karma]

-# tags smh

[ebon copper]

[neat karma]

-# smh my head frsmh

[hybrid plinth]

My ||mawlek|| strategy involves wailing on it until it does the ||scatter shot||, then ||dashing through it at the last second||

[hybrid plinth]

||Heart, it boosts your hp by two||

[ebon copper]

honestly, just ||ddark|| until he dies

[hybrid plinth]

which fight comes after again?

I'm almost certain it's ||oblobbles||

[ebon copper]

||oro and mato|| i think

[hybrid plinth]

oh, right

[drowsy yarrow]

You can do that without ||sharp shadow||, or you can jump over it and ||dash||. If you full jump it's extremely lenient.

[ebon copper]

you can get full soul from 1st phase

[sage remnant]

ohh mb. i didnt recognise it cz mine is ||fragile|| 😭

[ebon copper]

so you should be good

[hybrid plinth]

I get hit a little in that one, but not enough to panic

Typically it's by the basic ||combo||

That always comes out a bit faster than I expect

[ebon copper]

that fight too is a ||ddark and shriek|| fest

you basically only hit them to get soul for ||spells||

Guys, I'm sorry I need help a lot, but can somebody help me? I am in ||Fungal Wastes|| and I just got the ||Mantis Claw ability||. Where do I go now?

[neat karma]

Well theres a few places you can go, but right now id recommend going to the ||middle right of fungal wastes||

[shut dawn]

depends on choice

[neat karma]

||you might see symbols in the map showing where im telling you||

[knotty dagger]

What symbol is it?

[neat karma]

||in general though, any time that youre lost you should check empty spots in your map, those are rooms you havent explored||

[knotty dagger]

Wait, what do you mean?

[neat karma]

Theres only two ||drawings on the middle right of the fungal wastes map, and both lead to the same place||

[neat karma]

As i said, theres several places you can get to

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

[shut dawn]

sry

[knotty dagger]

Can you describe?

Or just give me a hint

[neat karma]

Simply go to the ||middle right of the map, i dont know what else to tell you, its pretty straightforwards since theres only one place you can go to in that direction||

[shut dawn]

||it looks like one of the bosses youve fought||

[ebon trail]

can i sit at bench with || white flower ||

[neat karma]

You could also send a picture of your map and i could mark the way

[shut dawn]

think you can

[neat karma]

Yes

[sudden lintel]

It respawns enemies tho so you prob shouldn't if you cleared the path alr

[thin plover]

they have a bot to delete untagged messages that's so cool

[ebon trail]

i doing iwthout clearing for fun

[knotty dagger]

I||'m at the bench on right side of mantis village||

[neat karma]

Well from there leave through the right side, go up until youre ||out of the darker green area on your map then go right||

[sudden lintel]

Pain*

[knotty dagger]

Okay I'm gonna check.

[neat karma]

You should like hop on mong

[ebon trail]

is esay

[shut dawn]

should i tell mr meow about the other area?

[neat karma]

Did you read the tag

[hybrid plinth]

You could, but be sure to tag it

[sudden lintel]

Not when you have ||infected crossroads||

[shut dawn]

never mind, ill only say if they ask

[ebon trail]

is || godhome || not other one
