@bold mist
||Hornet 2 Tips:

• Slash once and wait for her attack. She won't always attack immediately, but if she does, you'll be glad you only went for one slash
• Use spells to clear spikes
• Time shade soul as her thread spin is ending for a double hit
• When she jumps, delay your dash so she doesn't land on you
  ||

you could replace ||mark of pride|| with ||shaman stone|| too. Of your ||3 notch charms||, either ||mark of pride, shaman stone, or quick focus|| are good options

[bold mist]

Ok, thank you!

This fight has taught me that I'm not skilled at this game at all

[livid shoal]

You only have ||5 notches at Hornet 2?||

[full rain]

Does the gate that you open on the ||path of pain|| stay open if you go back to menu or do you have to restart the whole thing

[drowsy yarrow]

The gate stays open

[full rain]

Thank the lord

I need a break from this shit😭

[bold mist]

How many ||charm notches|| are recommended for ||hornet 2?||

And where's the ||Grimm torch to get him here?||

[zinc verge]

nice troll

[jade sedge]

Wdym?

[bold mist]

I got a sixth ||notch||

[jade sedge]

||I'd probably recommend getting one or two more but really its other stuff that matters||

[drowsy yarrow]

That will make it easier. I'd say any combination of the ||3 notch charms|| I mentioned earlier would be good

||Quick focus|| is severely underrated for first playthroughs. Quite often you can heal much more during healing windows, or even find windows that don't exist otherwise. It makes fights far more forgiving. Eventually people tend to shift their focus to dealing damage as fast as possible, but if you're just trying to beat the boss, it's really good.

However more healing means less ||soul for spells||, which is a bit of anti-synergy with ||shaman stone||

[zinc verge]

imagine using ||lifeblood heart||

[jade sedge]

I wouldnt assume them to be trolling because of that. It also isnt the nicest thing to do.

[zinc verge]

so your build should be
||shaman stone, wayward compass, gathering swarm and grubsong for exploration||
||shaman stone, soul catcher and grubsong for bosses||

[deep dawn]

yo i just finished all the ||dreamers|| and i'm at the ||hollow knight|| fight do i need to fight ||radiance|| just after or is it after the game ends

[solemn ibex]

do you have the ||void heart|| charm?

[torn tundra]

I'm fighting ||nkg|| rn but whenever i die the screen is white and i can't see. is there anything i can do?

[solemn ibex]

if it does like that just restart the game

[silver vale]

is this build fine for|| absrad?|| or should i go for a more offensive one

[torn tundra]

yeah but it does it again after a fes trys

[silver vale]

i might swap out ||steady body for sprintmaster|| cause your mostly upswinging when fighting the boss

[inner hound]

I'd go for a more offensive one, for example with ||quickslash and grubsong instead of deep focus||

[silver vale]

okay ty

ill try it oput and see if it works better for me

[solemn ibex]

i think it's somthing with your pc then

[inner hound]

or ||unbreakable strenght instead of quickslash if you dont hit her very often||

[silver vale]

actually isnt ||strength|| overall more efficient than|| quickslash||?

[inner hound]

i dont think so if you swing at max speed, because you decrease ||swing cooldown from 40%, which means 66% dmg increase, and more soul||

[ebon copper]

no

[inner hound]

he also got ||sbody which is very good with qs||

[ebon copper]

||qs|| helps build soul faster too

its the overall better/more efficent charm

also ||qs|| is just infinitely more fun than ||strenght||

increases the skill ceiling by quite a bit

[silver vale]

oh okay ty

im more comfortable playing w ||strength ||tho so ill stick to that but if i ever wanna go for faster runs ill def be using ||qs||

[ebon copper]

best is to just use both tho

[ebon copper]

whats your build?

[buoyant flame]

What is ||qs||?

[ebon copper]

||quick slash||

[buoyant flame]

Oh yeah

[serene jackal]

|| do you guys have tips for the colosseum of the conqueror? ||

[inner hound]

btw, using both is even better

[ebon copper]

figure out where its most safe to heal

[buoyant flame]

Yeah I might need those tips aswell.

[ebon copper]

just try to always have max health at the beginning of waves

[buoyant flame]

I was just gonna try it

[inner hound]

is it ||colo2 ?||

[ebon copper]

ye

[buoyant flame]

3

[silver vale]

ive been using ||quick focus|| to learn the fight and i took off ||steady body|| cause when im figvhting ||abs rad ||im only ever using the upward hits

[fallen heath]

||is there any way to lower that snow storm effect during the 2nd hornet fight cos the lag is harder than her||

[livid shoal]

No

[inner hound]

then use ||nail arts, they one shot most flying ennemies||

[ebon copper]

i mean this is decent, tho i can ofc say that ||grubsong sprint master and qf|| arent the best

[fallen heath]

I got particle effects and blur on low 😭

[ebon copper]

the best build for just beating the game is whatever you feel most confident with

[fallen heath]

||cant get to the watchers spire cos it lags in the room with all those beetles||

[ebon copper]

other stuff only really matters when you want speed

also when you are in the wave with no ||floor, use shriek||

@buoyant flame

it covers almost the whole arena

[silver vale]

oh dang i got to the final phase for the 1st time

wow

[ebon copper]

you got this

[silver vale]

i died immediately but

that means im improving

woohoo

I BEAT IT

woohooo

[buoyant flame]

Okay, ||Godtamer|| time

Ez

111%!

[silver vale]

u got this

[buoyant flame]

Yeah I beat her!

I've already done her in the ||pantheon|| so I knew what to do

Uh oh, now I gotta do ||p4||.

[silver vale]

oh congrats!

[silver vale]

have fun practicing ||pure vessel|| haha

[buoyant flame]

Yeah I can't even get past ||White defender||

Wait is ||absrad|| in ||p4|| or ||p5||?

[livid shoal]

5

[silver vale]

oops

[ebon copper]

the best boss in the game

[buoyant flame]

Good, then it isnt needed for 112%

[silver vale]

i agree i beat him on ||radiant ||the other day and it was the best feeling

[buoyant flame]

Nah, ||NKG|| is better imo

[ebon copper]

hell ye

[silver vale]

thats how i felt until i got better at him haha

[ebon copper]

||nkg|| is fun if you are doing challanges with him

[buoyant flame]

But ||Mantis Lords|| is also one of the best designed bosses in the game.

[silver vale]

should i try tobeat every boss on ||radiant?|| seems like a fun challenge

[silver vale]

defo agrere

[ebon copper]

like this no jumping and no charms run

[buoyant flame]

Yes, and after that do ||radiant Any Radiance||

[silver vale]

im good haha

[buoyant flame]

Lol

[silver vale]

whoa those parries are clean asf

[ebon copper]

need to be or id be dying the whole time

lel

[buoyant flame]

I started updating my laptop like I believe 30 minutes ago, it's on 16% (which means he sucks cuz I'm on 111% and almost 112%)

[solemn ibex]

kitty skin

:3

[ebon copper]

:3

[solemn ibex]

Mao

But WHY

WHY WOULD HE DO SUCH A THING

<:3

[serene jackal]

|| is steady body good?||

[solemn ibex]

It's actually rly useless

[serene jackal]

you can just press forward

[deep dawn]

no

[solemn ibex]

Do you have access to ||queen's garden|| ?

[deep dawn]

i bought the map but i didn't go there yet

[solemn ibex]

Explore it then the first piece of the ||kingsoul|| charm needs a boss fight :)

How many ||essence|| do you have btw?

[deep dawn]

i think 200+

yea

[solemn ibex]

Damn you're really far away

Collect 1800

[deep dawn]

is this necessary for the ||hk|| fight?

[solemn ibex]

If you want to fight ||the radiance|| then yes

Feel free to dm or friend me if you need more help

[serene jackal]

finally!

[deep dawn]

sure

[serene jackal]

|| guys i finally upgraded to coiled nail ||

im so happy!

[solemn ibex]

Gg now get the ||pure nail||

[serene jackal]

wait there is an upgrade 😭

i thought that was the highest

😭

[solemn ibex]

That's the last upgrade

And then the ||nailsmith|| will tell you to kill him

Don't do that tho

[frosty ocean]

||Pure vessel’s|| nail?🤯

[solemn ibex]

Kinda

[frosty ocean]

Where can I get a longer one

[solemn ibex]

||long nail|| or ||mark of pride||

Basics 🔥

[frosty ocean]

Can I say swear words

[solemn ibex]

Sure

I'm not a mod but yea

[frosty ocean]

FUCK

nah a longer ||nail||

[solemn ibex]

Buy it from ||salubra||

[frosty ocean]

I want a ||nail|| that looks like white dude

[solemn ibex]

And for ||mark of pride|| it needs a boss fight

[frosty ocean]

I am not new

I am pro

[solemn ibex]

You mean a nail that already has a long range?

[frosty ocean]

Uhh

yk how ||pure vessel’s|| nail is very long

[solemn ibex]

And?

[frosty ocean]

Do I just kill him and get a nail (joke)

:>

I want a nail that does 2x damage:D

[solemn ibex]

When you upgrade your nail to the maximum level it says ||"the old nail reveals its true form"||

[frosty ocean]

I wanna break my nail

[solemn ibex]

Fuckin duh

[frosty ocean]

Look at the dm 💀

[serene jackal]

Wait that's a bit suicidal

[solemn ibex]

Yh

[wary sandal]

help, how do I beat ||Hornet in kingdom's edge||? -,_,-

[split fox]

Git gud

||**hornet in kingdoms edge is just a faster version of her in greenpath with a parry and a goofy silly shurikane thingy that she spawns in the air that you can destroy but ig i will go over every attack||
||sphagetti is pretty easy you just gotta notice she is about to do it and stay away, so pay attention to her when she jumps||
||silly dashy dashy is just like.. Either jump over her if she does it on the ground or just dash away from where she is going||
||for the parry if you hit it just dash away||
||for the silly needle throw jump over it, its also a good moment to get some hits in and if you go for that make sure to jump over it twice when it comes back||
||for the shurikanes thingies just stop attacking hornet for a second and destroy em||
||charms i personaly use are strenght, quick slash, longnail, and shamans||
||ALSO after she is done with the stagger she ALYWAYS jumps to the center of the arena so its an easy moment to get howling wraits in||

[wary sandal]

Screw you

||**Thanks a lot, polsku orca man!||

[tame trout]

What am i missing?

And where/how to get them if possible

[ebon copper]

yes, in specific fights its slighltly more dps

[split fox]

||fragile strenght, the 600 geo charm you get from leg eater||

[silver vale]

the one you buy from the|| leg eater|| fella

[wary sandal]

Ohhh, okok

Thanks again

[ebon copper]

||grubberfly's elegy - get more grubs
spell twister - look in soul sanctum
deep focus - look in crystal peaks
lifeblood core - most likely not yet accessable
shape of unn - far left of greenpath
weaversong - weaver's den in derpnest
**** - progess in the main story||

[tame trout]

||What main story i already got all masks i just didn't kill the hollow knight yet||

[stoic cedar]

||he has sharp shadow so he has shade dash meaning he has abyss access||

[ebon copper]

ahh, forgot you cant get ||ss|| without

[tame trout]

Ye i pretty much have all locations

As far as i know

[stoic cedar]

yea theres a ||shade gate|| in the way

[ebon copper]

than just explore ||ancient basin|| more for ||lifeblood core||

[ebon copper]

its only 1 check so it rarely ends up being relevant in randos

hence idk much about it

[tame trout]

Ig i explored it all, is it behind a hidden door or something

[ebon copper]

nit really

[tame trout]

Alr I'll go check again

[ebon copper]

there is a|| door midfall on the left side||

[tame trout]

Ig it's locked

Ye i remember seeing a door there

[ebon copper]

ye, you can unlock it with what you have rn

you just need to figure out how

[tame trout]

Alright alright thank

Oh one more thing, ||where do i use the love key?||

I can't find an entrance nor a place for it

[ebon copper]

there is a door on the left side middle height in ||kingdoms edge||

[tame trout]

Okay I'll check that thanks

[ebon copper]

you can however not just simply go up, you need to go around to get there, so 1st go right, than up, and than to the left

[tame trout]

Ah like the ||colo|| route?

[ebon copper]

its to the left of that

only need to go one transition to the right, up and than back

[tame trout]

Alr alr im checking it rn

Thanks

[tame trout]

How tf do i get this I can't see a place

🔹 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.

[ebon copper]

you are in the ||hive||, thats not the same as ||kingdoms edge||

[simple island]

fuck

[stoic cedar]

||in the room closest to the grub marker, climb up the right wall and cdash at the top, u should see an opening in the ceiling. double jump to get into the hole in the ceiling and it should be clear from there||

[simple island]

Well that ||grub|| is accessible from the ||hive|| side…
It is hidden in the roof of all places

[ebon copper]

hes not looking for that

he wanted to use ||love key||

[simple island]

???

[ebon copper]

so its not even like he knows there is a ||grub|| there

[simple island]

Isn’t there something called "||love tower||" on their map ?

[ebon copper]

[simple island]

Wouldn’t that be a pertinent place to use that ||key||

People keep surprising me lol

[ebon copper]

tbf, while knowing where to use it isnt that bad, actually finding where you can enter isnt that obvious

also nice new pfp

[tame trout]

I still didn't find it there

[tame trout]

Can u maybe get a ss when u're free?

[simple island]

It’s my old pfp

The cake was « temporary »

So like 4 months lol

[stoic cedar]

video by thommie (he has a bunch of vids for hk help, might as well use them lol): ||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiHRCEfQPCM||

[tame trout]

Alr thanks

[ebon copper]

well, thats longer than what i have been here for, so ye

[zinc verge]

rad

[stable vortex]

what ||charm|| build should i use for ||pantheon 1||

[acoustic sigil]

Do you have all charms?

[stable vortex]

im missing 4 but those arent really useful

[acoustic sigil]

Okay

Do you use ||spells||?

[stable vortex]

yes

[simple island]

for a late game charm build I would say that ||shaman/quick slash/strength is a base line then you can add stuff like heart/spell twister/any combination of grubsong, nmg, dream wielder, sbody to finish; you can also replace one of the first 3 charm with MoP||

[acoustic sigil]

||I would recommend shaman stone, quick slash, strength and any of these: spell twister, steady body, grubsong, nail masters glory.||

[stable vortex]

can i use ||dream wielder|| for soul

[acoustic sigil]

Sure

You don't have to listen to anything I say if you want to use anything else lol

[stable vortex]

ok thx

[ebon copper]

also ||dream wielder|| is a really cool charm

[prime horizon]

real

[solemn ibex]

We need to help vure pessel he needs help

[dawn grove]

What about vure pessel is difficult

Yeah but why do you die

[ebon copper]

dont

[dawn grove]

Do you find a specific attack challenging

Specific behavior

You just jump and pogo once

When it does that

Pay attention to audio cues

[ebon copper]

here demo

[dawn grove]

Don't only focus on your character, make sure you're aware of everything on screen

[silver tusk]

can someone help me?

i have no idea where to go

[shut sparrow]

||Check out the left side of the area||

[silver tusk]

oki

[jade sedge]

||Yeah, explore the exits you havent filled yet||

[shut sparrow]

hi otso

[silver tusk]

||should i be in this area? ||

[jade sedge]

Hi nonsenf

[jade sedge]

||You are supposed to visit everywhere you are able to get to, but some of the places dont lead to anywhere yet||

[silver tusk]

|| i js explored the left side and the right side is already explored for me im so confused ||

||am i still missing a place to be discovered? ||

[jade sedge]

I can see plenty of unexplored exits on the screenshot you sent

[silver tusk]

ill send an updated one

[jade sedge]

||Theres two exits on the left side and two more right of the stag||

[silver tusk]

||stag?||

[jade sedge]

||The bug that carries you between dirtmouth and crossroads||

[silver tusk]

oh that

[solemn ibex]

Why's it so cute 😭

[dusty path]

i need help on ||sly in pantheon 3 perticurly faze 2||

[strange oriole]

how too use ||hallownest seal||

[silver vale]

ive beaten ||absrad ||twice now but i cant seem to get her down consistently, any tips?

[shut sparrow]

||you can't really use it for anything. You can sell it later for geo||

[shut sparrow]

Analyze your gameplay to figure out what attacks you struggle with/at what times you often get hit

[silver vale]

i feel like i dont nescessarily find one attack difficult but its like sometimes a sequence of bad rng is all it takes during the 1st, 2nd, or 4th phase that just instantly kills me

[shut sparrow]

every pattern is dodgeable though so it's never rng

[silver vale]

yeah ik some sequences j feel a bit harder than others

[shut sparrow]

if you want you can send a video of an attempt and I can tell you things you can improve on

[silver vale]

sure

[dusty path]

thx

[shut sparrow]

Make sure the file size of the video isn't too big for discord though. So either compress it enough or just upload it on yt and send the link

[silver vale]

heres the video and my charms
||https://medal.tv/games/hollow-knight/clips/kgvbmn1DFSBVGIreN?invite=cr-MSxtZ3IsMjc5ODI3ODY||

oh i just did another attempt and beat it haah

[strange osprey]

Finally GRIM TROUPE IS DEADD

|| I used charms- hiveblood and soul eater ||

Plim plom plim

[silver vale]

congrats!

[stoic cedar]

||the initial phases before sword rain looks like it was going mostly fine, u were mostly just fumbling on the dodges. But on plats u were chasing a bit too aggressively, most of the hits u took in plats were due to u chasing when u shouldnt have. Also I noticed that u dont really use spells, i would highly recommend using spells in this fight, it makes it go by a lot quicker and also allows for more attacking opportunities||

||as for ur charms, i assume this is ur pv build since sprint master isn’t exactly that useful against absrad, and u were mainly doing up slashes so sbody was pretty useless as well. But u can try to make a build tailored for abs rad and try practicing pv with that build to get comfortable with it. For example spell twister is pretty good against absrad but only if u use spells, u can try to experiment with the charms urself to see what works||

[silver vale]

||for the charms i wanted to keep a build that i would also be using in p5 so id be used to it ykwim, but i will try out new chamrs and do pv w them cause ive practiced it enough for pv to be easy,

also i wasnt using my spells as much cause i thought that the soul should be saved for the platform phase, if not, when should i be using spells in the first 3 phases?||

[acoustic sigil]

You should also spoiler tag this message btw

But gg

[stoic cedar]

||i would recommend using spells in second phase (spiked floor), save soul on phase 1 and once phase 2 starts u should be looking for opportunities to abyss shriek. On an actual p5 attempt u can also carry over soul from pv to get two free shrieks right off the bat. U want to get through phase 2 relatively quickly because it is easy to make mistakes in that phase, so it’s preferable to use some of ur soul to get through that phase quicker rather than using a lot of ur soul for healing.||

[silver vale]

oh dude thanks thats actually super smart then i can build soul in phase 3

appreciate it

[vale tulip]

how do i get 2400 ||essence||

[oblique lion]

I hate ||delicate flower so much||

[oblique lion]

Bosses

[languid kelp]

||
What does Dreamgate do exactly?||

[vale tulip]

i alr did all of them

[oblique lion]

They let u set a point u can teleport to

[vale tulip]

i have 1800

[oblique lion]

Then trees

[vale tulip]

theres like one left

[oblique lion]

U didnt do all of the bosses

[vale tulip]

oh right

[stoic cedar]

||Well preferably u will have a good amount of soul stored up for plats, and getting through phase 2 quicker with shrieks helps with that since compared to healing, which ull need 66 soul for each double dmg u take, compared to only a maximum of like 4 shrieks to end the phase with each shriek costing 33 soul, u can clearly see which one is more soul efficient in the long run||

[silver vale]

yeah that makes sense tysm

[vale tulip]

i did do all the bosses theres no warrior graves left

oh u meant like lost ||kin and stuff||

[languid kelp]

||
What does Dreamgate do and what is this thing on my map right next to me||

[plucky dome]

||The thing on your map is where you placed your dreamgate. You can teleport to it by pressing dreamnail+up||

[oblique lion]

Yeah

[languid kelp]

||And you can only have one active at a time?||

[acoustic sigil]

Yes

[languid kelp]

Makes sense

[thick wing]

how do i get down here

[undone flower]

something you unlock later

[thick wing]

the groudn shakes when i walk on it'

[thick wing]

oh ok

[undone flower]

you’ll know when you can go down there, it’s not subtle

[thick wing]

lol

i got ||dash|| and idk where to go now

[undone flower]

||Try going further down in forgotten crossroads||

[thick wing]

||i got charm shop ||

|| theres elavator but i cant go in

[undone flower]

There’s a couple of options at the bottom of ||forgotten crossroads||, try them all

[thick wing]

i have 2 in the bottom left wish me luck

I found it!

[short dawn]

where is the other lamp thiny? i got the one towards the right but idk where the other one is

[shut sparrow]

to the left

[short dawn]

i checked but the was only another locked door and some soul

[shut sparrow]

if you haven't gotten the one towards the left then there will still be a way there. Check again

[short dawn]

oh nvm in stupid lol

[undone flower]

delete this

you need to repost it with spoiler tags

RAH MOBILE FAILED TO SHOW THE SPOILER TAG

[sly rune]

The bot would have gotten it if it weren't spoilered lol.

[short dawn]

i did tho

[undone flower]

yeah ik, mobile discord moment

[tame trout]

||did he eat them?? will they return?||

[acoustic sigil]

No and no

[keen stream]

no

[drowsy yarrow]

Something I would add is that during ||platforms, only attack while she's finishing an attack. Similar to sly, where you need to wait for his 3 hit combo, you should either wait for Absrad's combo or ddark at the start.

Two of your hits were from trying to attack right before she started another attack, and one was from attacking in the middle of her attack.||

[sleek mango]

||Guys if i die and im not equipping any fragile charm do the charms break or not||

[keen stream]

it wont

[sleek mango]

Thanks vro🙏

[keen stream]

but it'll break if you die with them

[tame trout]

ah okay i found out on reddit

anyway

[acoustic sigil]

Ew reddit

[tame trout]

||i just knew that there're 4 endings||

||can i have them all on the same file or no||

[acoustic sigil]

Yes

[tame trout]

it's literally the best place to find answers

[tame trout]

alright thanks

btw where tf is ||godhome||?

and why is my ||white palace|| really small

||will it expand after i beat the hollow knight?||

[acoustic sigil]

||Waterways||

[acoustic sigil]

No

[oblique lion]

how do i pass this?

[languid kelp]

||I'm fighting Hornet for the second time, what should I bring?||

[acoustic sigil]

Do you use ||spells||?

[keen stream]

i finally relearned the 1st phase

[prime horizon]

||spell|| or nail build

[languid kelp]

||I use Shade Soul a lot, but unfortunately she can block attacks and my spells straight up don't do damage sometimes. Also the spikes she lays are annoying. 😭||

[languid kelp]

||Spell build but I don't know if that will work here, she can block spells.||

[keen stream]

wat

[acoustic sigil]

||Shade soul is very good to clear the spikes. I would recommend
Shaman stone, soul catcher, long nail, or just replace the last 2 with soul eater||

And no she can't block them

[oblique lion]

???

[keen stream]

she doesnt do that?

[keen stream]

||dash||

[languid kelp]

||Maybe I'm tripping but I hear the blocking sound effect||

[languid kelp]

Maybe I'm tripping

[keen stream]

then prolly ||cdash|| on the last part

[prime horizon]

i would say ||shamans and catcher then prob long nail||

[oblique lion]

||dash aint dashing||

[keen stream]

its prolly jus sounds

[languid kelp]

Alright I'll try that

[acoustic sigil]

||Iirc the parry does trigger but the damage is real||

[languid kelp]

Makes sense

[keen stream]

you need to ||dash|| in the perfect distance

[languid kelp]

||So long nail to deal with the spikes and sometimes I can use shade soul to clear them||

[short dawn]

You're also stuck in ||white palace|| lol

[shut sparrow]

||most of the advice I would've given has already been said. A few more things added and summed up:

• use spells more often
• don't try to deal damage while dodging an attack
• you can remove the floor spikes in second phase with a dive on them
• don't chase radiance too much in plats
• I recommend staying mainly on the top platforms in plats because it's easier to move around from there
• if you have saved up soul shriek at the beginning of final

For charms if you wanna change them the only real change I'd make if any would be twister instead of sbody and sprintmaster. Though if you like sbody you can also use grubsong instead of sprintmaster||

[keen stream]

||dash|| in this spot

[outer hare]

how do i fight ||absolute radiance||

[shut sparrow]

||it's in royal waterways||

[outer hare]

i dont mean with ||the 5th pantheon|| because i cant get to the end of it

[shut sparrow]

it's the only way to fight her

[keen stream]

yeh

[shut sparrow]

or you can use mods

[keen stream]

is there a mod for that?

[acoustic sigil]

Possibly

But you can also use debug to just invis cheat to reach her

[outer hare]

||oh dang i guess i gotta grind

[drowsy yarrow]

Do you mean ||normal radiance||?

[shut sparrow]

||indeed

[keen stream]

100% should

[hybrid plinth]

Oh, and if you have ||sharp shadow||, remove it

this part is designed for the normal ||dash||

[languid kelp]

Okay I beat her, I just had to get better

lmao

[outer hare]

no i mean ||absolute radiance|| i think normal ||radiance|| is too easy

[drowsy yarrow]

Yeah, without doing ||p5||, you'd need cheats/mods

[hasty turtle]

I want to do the succes where you need to speedrun hk in less than 20 hours do you have any advice ?

[keen stream]

i relearned the first phase

[shut sparrow]

are you going for ||p5ab or just absrad ab?||

[shut sparrow]

mainly just to have a rough plan on your route. For 20 hours that should be enough to beat it

[keen stream]

i died, but i think i now remembered all her moves

[outer hare]

okay, thanks

[hybrid plinth]

Oh, so the first phase is ||half her hp?||

[keen stream]

yeh

[hasty turtle]

does I need to avoid thing for being for faster ?

[hybrid plinth]

I wondered why it took so long

[keen stream]

the 25-30% is her 2nd phase

[hybrid plinth]

isn't phase 2 more like 40%?

[keen stream]

and there's somehow always 10-15% of helth left when you defeat her, ig thats for the ||shade lord|| thing

[hybrid plinth]

the ||desperation phase|| is so short

[hybrid plinth]

oh, so that part has health remaining? i thought it was just flavour

[outer hare]

what is the best charm setup for ||p5||

[thin plover]

what charm do you have

[keen stream]

the goat: ||strength, quickslash, twister, shaman||

[outer hare]

every single one

[outer hare]

alr thank you

[thin plover]

||quickslash, strength, shaman stone, steady body, nailmaster's glory is my go to||

[keen stream]

i actually thought she dies at 0%, but twas 10 smth

there's still shitload of helth left

[outer hare]

okay ill try both of the suggestions and see how i do

[hybrid plinth]

You want a mix of offense and defense

[keen stream]

lemme do here without ||bindings|| rq

[hybrid plinth]

I use ||Strength, Quick Slash, Shaman Stone, and Quick Focus||

[shut sparrow]

that's ||overcharming||

hi neat

[keen stream]

i use these

i use ||twister|| instead of ||fury||, mb

this one

[silver vale]

tysm i appreciate the advice

[silver vale]

ty!! the summary is super helpful i really appreciate it

[outer hare]

if u do this setup u become ||overcharmed||

[keen stream]

somehow killed her

also discovered smth weird

idk if its a thing but, she wont proceed to the next phase if you dont hit her with a nail

[shut sparrow]

||You can only kill her with the nail, yes||

[keen stream]

i mean even in 2nd phase

[shut sparrow]

that's not true

[keen stream]

she wont do the climb if i keep hitting her with ||spells||

[keen stream]

fr?

[shut sparrow]

she will

[keen stream]

das weird then

she'd usually die with a bit of helth left

[shut sparrow]

||sometimes she will start a sequence of attacks right before you deal enough damage for the next phase to start which leads to her staying in that phase to finish it first and only afterwards proceeding to the next one. This can seem like she stays in the phase for longer.||

[shut sparrow]

what do you mean by this?

[keen stream]

literally like what i said

she'd die with a bit of helth left

my theory about that is its for the ||shade lord|| thing

but now she died without any helth left so im confused af

[shut sparrow]

she always does, yes

[shut sparrow]

this seems like a bug

you mean based on the hp bar?

[keen stream]

yeh

since it tracks my dmg n stuff

maybe the ||spells|| jus depleted all of it before the climb even started

[shut sparrow]

yeah she isn't suddenly gonna gain ||200 hp. Either a mod caused a bug or the hp bar glitched out||

[shut sparrow]

||damage doesn't transfer from plats to final||

but maybe the hp bar views it like that

what does this machine dov

[keen stream]

probably

[shut sparrow]

remember it and return to it later. There will be something there

[strange oriole]

also is there a boss in || fungal wastes||

[shut sparrow]

yes

[strange oriole]

there?

[keen stream]

it turns back time letting you go back to the places that'd get locked later
-# jus kidding

[shut sparrow]

||no, but you can just explore the area and will find new stuff and the boss eventually. Also I really recommend buying a quill and the compass in Dirtmouth for easier exploration||

[strange oriole]

is it worth dropping my geo here?

[strange oriole]

will do rn

[acoustic sigil]

||If you are afraid of dying twice with your geo||

[crisp isle]

She's corrupt

[oblique lion]

yes drop everything and you'll get it all back+50% more

[short dawn]

does ||sharp shadow|| increase ||shadow dash|| range?

[nova cobalt]

||Depends if you think you'll die enough that you'll lose a lot of Geo
You could put some Geo there and come back to the bank later when you need the Geo to buy something, that's what i did||

[jade sedge]

Yeah

[nova cobalt]

Yes

[short dawn]

eey tacocat!

[nova cobalt]

Ello

[short dawn]

dang, i had other ||charms|| i wanted to use for ||white palace|| but there's one part i cant do without it

[hybrid plinth]

Wait, hold up

You CAN'T complete it with ||sharp shadow||

[short dawn]

wdym

[hybrid plinth]

there's a section you need to time normal length ||dashes|| in to get through some ||spear traps||

[short dawn]

which one?

[hybrid plinth]

If you can't make a jump, try pogoing off of the ||spikes or saws|| and ||double jumping||

[hybrid plinth]

I believe it's about 3/4 of the way through

Everything there is designed to be doable charmless

oh, also, fun fact, if you ||die in white palace in steel soul, you die permanently||

[nova cobalt]

@short dawn
||I don't really know if White Palace is a good place to use Sharp Shadow cus the increased range will throw you off||
There are a lot of other platforming sections in this game that i failed A LOT because i would just overshoot it, because i had ||Sharp Shadow|| equipped, and there were platforming parts that required normal ||Dash|| distance.
I did ||Path of Pain|| in my first playthrough without it equipped so you'll be fine without it

[hybrid plinth]

If you have it, there IS a charm I would recommend for your current goal

||Hiveblood||

||Just wait ten seconds after a failed attempt and you get the health back||

but yeah, platforming without ||sharp shadow||, that charm is used for combat

[ebon copper]

nowhere is a good place to use ||sharp shadow|| tbf, its just a bad charm

[hybrid plinth]

I beg to differ, it does some good work on melee bosses

[short dawn]

there's one part with spikes going up and down or smth that i could do kinda easily with it but then i tried without it and now i cant get past there

[nova cobalt]

||Sharp Shadow|| is only really good for some bosses and really bad for tight platforming like in ||White Palace||
I do equip it for exploring tho even if it only makes you a little bit faster

[nova cobalt]

Tbh it's been too long since I've been to ||White Palace|| I don't know what you're talking about

But are you sure you need ||Sharp Shadow|| for it?

||What about C Dash or a short double jump if it's a tight area||

[hybrid plinth]

I use it for bosses that I can keep the pressure on with ||dashes||

not to mention that it makes ||pure vessel|| a LOT easier

[ebon copper]

||sharp shadow|| isnt optimal for any boss in hk

its just a waste of ||2 notches||

[hybrid plinth]

Tell that to ||Traitor Lord||

[nova cobalt]

Well like Shif said it can be used to keep the pressure on with bosses
Except i can't do it cus i end up getting too cocky and dying anyway
But i DID get ||Traitor Lord|| to his 2nd phase pretty quickly with it like 2 times in a row before i stopped cus i was too frustrated by the trek to the boss lol

[hybrid plinth]

He has two phases?

[ebon copper]

its just useless since, ||dashing ||thru bosses actually cuts your dmg potential

optimally you really want to avoid ||dashing|| if you are close enough to deal damage

[ebon copper]

no

he starts doing a different attack if you get too far

but it isnt a different phase persay

[nova cobalt]

I was just counting the first time that he uses those floor to ceiling wave attacks as the start of his 2nd phase
It IS like a 2nd phase right? He only started using those attacks when i did enough damage

[ebon copper]

its pretty random when that happens

if you go far enough, itll probably happen quicker

[nova cobalt]

Oh so he can use those attacks at any time?
I get it now, the only reason he was using those attacks later on was because by then i was panicking from low health in the fight and trying to get away to heal instead of staying on him to constantly attack lol

[ebon copper]

im not 100% sure if it does have a certain activation point, but it should really be called a separate phase

if you do enough dmg, he only does it 0-1 times

[nova cobalt]

But still i could tell i was doing a lot of damage with ||Sharp Shadow by dashing through his dashed instead of jumping or something||, and then immediately hitting him over and over with the ||nail or a spell||

If i had ||Quick Slash|| equipped i prolly would've killed him

[ebon copper]

the thing is ||sharp shadow ||does 1 nailhit worth of dmg, and takes longer than how long one nailhit with ||quick slash|| does, making it just straight up suboptimal for dmg

there is just no reason to use it, as it practically cuts your dmg

[nova cobalt]

||I know
I don't use Sharp Shadow to do damage instead of the nail or something, it's just that Traitor Lord does his own dash attacks a TON and so dashing through his own dashes with Sharp Shadow is just to deal extra damage, while dodging him and still staying close to him. Rather than jumping or dashing away from his dashes||

[ebon copper]

use ||descending dark while he dashes||

or ||pogo|| ig

also works

i just cant stand it to see ppl praise it, since if you use it for ||pv||, itll give you so much trouble to get rid of it for ||absrad||

[nova cobalt]

||Ik. I do use descending dark but it's not always an option because it uses soul, and sharp shadow doesn't||

[ebon copper]

you shouldnt be low on soul, the boss is literarly a giant hitbox to farm

[nova cobalt]

||Sharp Shadow allows me to keep doing damage so that i always have just enough soul to do spells||

[nova cobalt]

Yeah, ||Sharp Shadow|| just seems quicker to me

[ebon copper]

idk man, its just not optimal for any bossfight, but its not like this is some secret knowledge, anyone can tell you that that charm isnt optimal,even the praisers

its justa bad habit to pick up

[nova cobalt]

Yeah that's why I've only used it for ||traitor lord|| and literally nothing else

[nova cobalt]

I didn't say it was optimal for everything. I've only been talking about specifically the ||Traitor Lord|| fight

[ebon copper]

still isnt optimal for him

its optimal for none of them, including ||traitor lord||

[nova cobalt]

Well it's useful enough in the fight for me so i use it

[ebon copper]

ok

[steep bough]

Hey is anyone willing to help me beat the game please

[acoustic sigil]

In what sense

I don't think people can pick up the controller for you but yes this channel is for tips

Spoiler tag ||dream||

[steep bough]

Sorry

[acoustic sigil]

And it seems you know what you need to do to get it

Is there a specific boss you need help with

[steep bough]

He's quite annoying

And difficult

[acoustic sigil]

You still need to spoiler tag this, and boss names as well

this

[hasty turtle]

I want to do the success where you need to 100% hk in less than 20 hours

what are the things to avoid for being faster

[jade sedge]

||Its honestly pretty easy if you know the map well so you dont have to spend time on being lost||

||I think i left out kingsoul, awoken dream nail and ascension at least, probably nkg and maybe grimm too||

[full rain]

Do you still get ||lifeblood|| in ||pantheon 5|| for doing the ||bindings|| on ||pantheons 1-4|| individually rather than all together

[jade sedge]

You still need to spoiler tag ||bindings||

[full rain]

Oop

Sorry

[jade sedge]

||The requirements are the same for all pantheons, you dont have to do them at the same time||

[short dawn]

i tried ||c dash|| and sure it might be possible but it was so much harder

[haughty lotus]

hey, im trying to get : ||radiant on every boss and i was wondering what build should i use on every boss, does anyone knows if a list exists or anything||

[sleek mango]

I got a question

||do the fragile charms break when im fighting a dream boss?||

[acoustic sigil]

No

||If you don't get put on a bench after death, they don't break||

[sleek mango]

Bet

[short dawn]

@nova cobalt this is the part i cant do without ||sharp shadow||

[sleek mango]

Link pfp

Goated

[pallid cedar]

Can someone explain this glitch

[plain terrace]

hey guys, a little help here pls, ||if i die in a pantheon, do i lose my fragile charm||?

[nova cobalt]

?
Are you sending it

[pallid cedar]

No

[plain terrace]

thanks

[nova cobalt]

@short dawn did your message get deleted or something

[acoustic sigil]

I can't explain it, but quitting out solves it

[lavish slate]

||to get the pure completion achievement, do i need to get the 112% and then kill the hollow knight or can i kill the hollow knight and then get 112%?||

[acoustic sigil]

||Get 112 and then get any ending||

[devout wagon]

||what are the bindings for in the pantheon?||

[tacit spindle]

How do I know I got 100% or not?

[bright sorrel]

its not really known but the leading/most probable cause is: ||the game cleans things from an area after a fight (such as the swords), so its possible that radiance shot a sword after the game cleaned the objects, meaning it didnt get removed from the arena since the game believed all attacks were cleaned||

[short dawn]

i forgot to send it lol but i beat it anyways

[nova cobalt]

Oh ok lol good job

[short dawn]

i got ||voidheart|| lets goo

[drowsy yarrow]

||They are not required for any achievements or percentage, but there are two rooms that can only be unlocked by completing pantheons with bindings.

One is the lifeblood room, which requires 8 total bindings to unlock, and grants a small benefit in pantheons.

The other requires all 20 bindings. The bindings may be done individually.

Succeeding with 4 bindings at once just gives a unique glow.||

[nova cobalt]

Yee
I completely forgot you even get that there lol

[short dawn]

you get the second part of ||kingsoul||, you get ||voidheart|| in ||abyss||

imma beat ||the hollow knight|| again so that i can see the other ||endings|| and get the 100% completion throphy

[nova cobalt]

||Oh i thought because you said you got voidheart right after you said you beat a oart of the white palace that it meant you got Voidheart in White Palace lol||
I did know that you get a hakf of the ||Kingsoul|| in the ||White Palace|| tho

I haven't been to ||White Palace|| yet in this playthrough i was gonna fo everything else first, i don't even have enough ||essence|| yet anyways, haven't fought any of the ||dream bosses|| yet to get a lot of it

Plus i still have ||Path of Pain|| ptsd

...why is the abbreviation of ||Path of Pain|| a spoiler too?

[acoustic sigil]

All abbreviations are

[short dawn]

101% lets go

[serene gazelle]

Hello everyone I just found something called the ||tram pass|| could someone tell me what it's for?

[native peak]

you can use it in ||tramways||

[nova cobalt]

For moving the trams that you can find on the upper and lower part of the map

[serene gazelle]

||Is that what that thing in the forgotten crossroads is?||

[native peak]

yes

[serene gazelle]

Okay cool, thank you both

[short dawn]

is the screen cracking when you take damage a setting? cuz i don't think it shows up for me

[tame trout]

[idle ingot]

its not a small area at all

[tame trout]

ah

[tame trout]

idk but when i explored i didn't see any path beyond

neither did i find a map

[idle ingot]

||white palace|| doesn't have a map

[tame trout]

[floral topaz]

[untold zephyr]

[untold zephyr]

Well

||Bye bye other endings||

[acoustic sigil]

Go to the elevator

[tame trout]

[untold zephyr]

||Pale king really thought that 100 saws and weird flying drones will protect him||

[tame trout]

||oh ye bye bye other endings||

[untold zephyr]

||Dw, they aren't primal aspids||

[tame trout]

hell no i ain't holding 💔

[untold zephyr]

Do you need spoiler?

[tame trout]

nah I'll surprise myself

thanks tho

[untold zephyr]

Ok

[split fox]

He means a certain place in ||kingdoms edge|| where you fight a lot of enemies in a row to get a prize

Its at the top of it

It gib 2k per run

[tight hedge]

Ur way over

It was NOT 2k

[split fox]

It does

Indeed

Give 2k

||geo||

I meant ||coloseum 2||

[tight hedge]

Me not done that

I tried

But I couldn't

[split fox]

Then do the first one

It gives 1k ||geo||

[thick wing]

where do i go i got hornets speach and went back but nothig changed and idk where to go

[wraith sail]

Iirc to progress on that zone ||there is an easy to miss path if you jump from the elevator in the big room||

[hybrid plinth]

As a general rule, you'll want to check your map for unmapped paths

Here, however, there are a few enterable buildings

The way metroidvanias are set up, you'll want to explore everything you can, and take note of any areas you can't reach

When you get a new ability, check those areas

[glass igloo]

Just reached || Fog Cayon||

[thick wing]

I dont have a map bc i just entered ckty of tears

[glass igloo]

|| is Wayyard compass and Soul Snatcher good for 3 places?||

[thick wing]

WAT DO I DO THE DOOR TO GO TO FUNGUS LAND IS CLOSED AND THERES NO ESCAPE

[modest elm]

||find a way out from the place you’re already in||

[modest elm]

||wayward can be replaced with map knowledge and reasoning (number of doors, landmarks on map, room shape, etc)
Soul catcher is a fairly weak charm||

More than likely- this doesn’t matter because you don’t have other options anyways. Use what works for you and change your build if your feel like a boss or area would be easier with a specific ||charm||

[glass igloo]

|| Is there anything good in Fungal waste? ||

[glad lava]

yes

[glass igloo]

|| and how do i get more notches for my charms?||

[glad lava]

you’ll just find them as you explore

just, explore, explore, explore

the game is best played as blind as possible

[full rain]

I am having a lot of trouble with ||winged nosk|| anyone have any tips for that section of ||p5|| bc i either always die to him or ||sly|| right after

[silver tusk]

|| once I finish with the part I like started with and I go to the grass land does that mean I'm done with the first part? And what point do I get the map guy ||

[glad lava]

There’s usually always reason to return to the area later in the game

[silver tusk]

|| what about the map guy||

[glad lava]

just explore and you’ll find him

[silver tusk]

Oki

[hollow bramble]

||can u get embrace the void achievement in godseeker mode||

[tame trout]

||isn't there any cheese to the damn palace im actually suffering||

[glad lava]

yes

[hybrid plinth]

The ||compass|| is more so useful for finding where you are while exploring. It's not necessary

[hybrid plinth]

I'm almost certain there is a skip at some point

[tame trout]

||i spent like half an hour opening 2 elevators man, how many r there||

[hybrid plinth]

||Winged Nosk is like the Vengefly King with a bigget hitbox. Pogo off of him when he swoops||

[hybrid plinth]

Wish I knew. I've not even set foot in there since the year Elden Ring came out

I just remember seeing a handy skip of some sort in a video

[tame trout]

ah fair enough, thanks anyhow

[lavish slate]

||can i make the sealed sibling and the dream no more finals in the same playthrough?||

[dense ivy]

anyone know how to fix this?

[thin plover]

Close and reopen the game is my guess

[thin plover]

Yes

[worldly mesa]

What do I do after beating the game? I just ||killed the hollow knight|| and reloaded my save after watching the credits, I did also see a video where ||it was during a boss fight and hornet held the boss down then you used the dream nail on the boss, but I never saw that boss, is that dlc or a extra ending?||

[thin plover]

the only ending you can get locked out of is ||the hollow knight ending. obtaining voidheart makes every other ending possible, but the hollow knight ending can only be triggered without having voidheart||

[boreal spade]

Continue the ||seer|| ||esscense quest||

[modest elm]

Explore ||more of the map and place value on getting essence||

Your goals:||
-A way deeper into ancient basin
-west of fog canyon..?
-acid resistance ability?
-fighting any and all bosses
-mapping out **as much of the map as possible (**the stag will let you know if you’ve found every stag station)||

[worldly mesa]

This is everywhere I’ve been

I’m at 65% completion it says

[tame trout]

||I COMPLETED THE PALACE LETS GOO||

[modest elm]

||Completion is based off of charms, abilities, and permanent upgrades, as well as bosses and some quests||

[tame trout]

||now what does the charm do other than a new ending?||

[modest elm]

||4 new endings : )||

[tame trout]

that's it?

wait

how 4

doesn't it unlock only one

anyhow don't spoil I'll figure it out

does it do anything else tho?

[modest elm]

It’s|| un-unequipable and has large story significance. It has no effect in gameplay||

Oh ||wait no - not that charm||

[tame trout]

||so u're telling me i have to have 5 notches taken away all the time?||

[modest elm]

@tame trout ||equip the new charm and take it to the abyss - you may remember hornet mentioning something like this||

You will ||not receive a notch debuff||

[tame trout]

||to hornet room?||

Below ||basin||

[tame trout]

[modest elm]

: )

[tame trout]

sob okay I'll figure it out

thanks for helping

[tacit mica]

im doing ||ngk|| on mobile, should i get ||last nail upgrade||!?

[flat sundial]

Yes

[flat sundial]

Every ||mask|| too

[tame trout]

i did it

||are u sure i didn't lose any endings with this?||

||cuz someone said i should fight thk with kingsoul or wtv ||

[stoic cedar]

||did u fight thk normally without void heart?||

[tame trout]

ye

[stoic cedar]

Okay then u r fine

[tame trout]

will he become better now?

cuz that fight was bad af😔

[stoic cedar]

The fight is the same except a minor difference at the end

[tame trout]

||btw how to go there i yet to find a way||

[tame trout]

bruh

tbh they did him bad he's absolutely ass💔

[stoic cedar]

Well the difference is pretty important but it doesn’t seem like much at first glance

[tacit mica]

Well you see the thing is, i got to like the last phase, like multiple times but because i panicked a lot i keep on dying

Wasn't too fast to edit the message

Rip

[modest elm]

If you did|| one ending before then no.
If you didn’t, it’s fine because it’s the easiest ending to get and will be what you aim for on other saves (for speedrun achievements and such)||

[tame trout]

even if u edit it'd get deleted

[tacit mica]

But I'll just get the ||nail upgrade||

[tacit mica]

Oh, that's a cool system though

[tame trout]

||i did get an ending where i replaced him||

[tame trout]

fr sometimes annoying af

[tame trout]

anyone knows how to enter this place?

[tacit mica]

Also how many stagger points does he have god damn

i got him to like 5 stagger points and he still haven't died

[shut sparrow]

||you need to collect essence||

[tame trout]

how many

i have like 2100 or something

I don't even know how to get more

[shut sparrow]

||staggers don't depend on hp. They depend on hits and combos. So how many staggers it takes varies depending on your spell usage, your comboing and your nail/spell damage. So there is no set amount||

[shut sparrow]

||1800 .You should collect the rewards if you haven't yet||

[tame trout]

i did

[tacit mica]

Oh so its just because i need to upgrade the ||nail||

?

[idle ingot]

there's nothing below there

[shut sparrow]

hi Pankreas

[tame trout]

what're these pillars thn

[idle ingot]

a detail

[tame trout]

damn

that's depressing i thought there's something cool there

[shut sparrow]

one day I won't get ghosted

[tacit mica]

I mean sure, the hardest ||pale ore|| is the one where you have to find like all the green worms or whatever

[atomic oxide]

second ||sly phase is destroying me||

any tips?

got to it twice but died

[shut sparrow]

video is by anika

[atomic oxide]

clutch ty

[tacit mica]

Also is there a way I can deliver the ||flower|| without having to run into like 100 different enemies

[atomic oxide]

i beat him in ||hog 3 times in a row but for some reason in pantheons it was getting me||

[shut sparrow]

unlucky. I'm sure you'll get it soon

[tame trout]

||ok so now i got the hornet ending and when i dnail him i get the radiance, how to get the 4th ending?||

[shut sparrow]

4th and 5th are both in ||royal waterways and take a lot more practice||

[tame trout]

||i saw a vid on yt, put a dgate near the lady then choose a path, go kill all the enemies in ur way when use ur nail to go back to the gate and enemies won't be there||

[tame trout]

where at tho

oh

||u mean the pantheons?||

[shut sparrow]

yes

[tame trout]

damn i heard they're hard

rip

[shut sparrow]

you don't need to do them if you find them too difficult

[tacit mica]

a ||dgate|| ?

[tame trout]

||I can't even defeat the radiance||

[tame trout]

|| dream gate||

[shut sparrow]

are you sure this isn't spoiling them?

[tacit mica]

I dont know what's that is but I'll try searching it up, thank you btw

[shut sparrow]

next time please make sure to check by asking to see their inventory

[tame trout]

np

[tame trout]

||well i assumed he has it since the flower thing is a late game quest as far as i know.. i don't even know where to start it||

[shut sparrow]

you shouldn't assume anything

it's ok tho just make sure to remember it next time

[neon lion]

[tacit mica]

If you played similar games like hk then maybe

You can always look at guides before any boss but i think it'll spoil you

[potent rock]

How early on can i get the ||desolate slam spell||? After ||greenpath|| and ||fungal wastes||?

[nova cobalt]

WHERE IS HE

Please don't tell me i have to go through ||Deepnest|| to find him

[neat karma]

[nova cobalt]

||Tower of Love||

[potent rock]

[potent rock]

[nova cobalt]

Well you can only get ||Desolate Dive|| after Beating ||Soul Master|| and he's in ||City of Tears||
And you can only get there with the ||Mantis Claw|| in ||Fungal Wastes||

[potent rock]

kk

tys

[nova cobalt]

Ur welc

[nova cobalt]

Also can someone answer this
If there's like a breakable wall somewhere can someone circle where it is

[neat karma]

||its somewhere around the middle of the room directly left of the icon||

||breakable wall yeah||

[nova cobalt]

I thought it might be there
Thx

I remember asking this exact same question like 3 years ago when i first played the game lol

[slow latch]

Seeing her here does that mean it’s too late to save her?

[neat karma]

No

[slow latch]

Does it matter if I listen to her

[neat karma]

The latter

[slow latch]

Oh Alr so I’m chill

[obtuse slate]

please help

[deft glade]

||Does the transition from Pure Vessel to Absolute Radiance in P5 heal you? Does it heal Lifeblood Masks? Does it refill your Soul?||

[solid heart]

Just ||heal you to max, but not remove lifeblood or give soul||

[deft glade]

Thank you

To clarify, ||Lifeblood is not affected?||

[solid heart]

Indeed

[midnight hound]

||well hello, i Just finished the game for the first time. how can i kill the other bosses? (the only end i did was killing the hollow knight)||

[wary gust]

Does he know?

[hybrid flare]

||I got all 3 dreamers anything I should have achieved or do before fighting the hollow knight||

[flat sundial]

||Defeat the hollow knight for get a ending, next get void heart for another 2 endings||

[solid heart]

Not really, just go in, if ||he's too hard you can just get better gear and go back. You can do the rest of the game later||

[stable vortex]

how do i get ||dream no more?||

[keen stream]

kill ||radiance|| iirc

[fallow yacht]

||the game save before fighting THK, so you can replay the same save file for other endings||

[strange osprey]

yoo

guys a underrrated charm setup for grim troupe ( i found 1 but still tell)

2nd try grim troupe with that build ngl

[keen stream]

what?

[dire burrow]

||Help with Absrad?||

[solid heart]

With what exactly

What have you tried to do, or haven't tried to do

If you want I have some video examples of strats

Although since they were not made for the purpose of teaching, some are pretty advanced

[dire burrow]

The Climb

Also ||Shriek windows||

[solid heart]

Ah, that's all about controlling yourself

[dire burrow]

First phase mostly easy

[solid heart]

At the beginning, she ||will do more random attacks due to you being far away, so you want to wait until a beam is telegraphed, for you to jump, to the next platform, as long as it's not on it ofc||

[dire burrow]

Platforms is also decent but sometimes I can’t find ||Shriek Windows||

[solid heart]

The closer you get the more likely the beam is on you, so just keep moving

||I think I have some good shrieks in AB||

[dire burrow]

||How much soul should you save for platform||

3 casts?

4?

[solid heart]

Try to save as max as possible

Rain phase is completely free

Just don't|| shriek on it||

But you want to balance healing

So I'd heal ||3 or 4 masks depending on how low you are||

||https://youtu.be/rgflE2hsyDI|| also, I uploaded this, which focuses on ||ddark windows, which are arguably stronger than shriek in plats||

[dire burrow]

True ig

[solid heart]

Also this other one has some very consistent starts, although a mistake

[dire burrow]

Ehh I mostly don’t take damage there

[solid heart]

Also, this is Dyrati's tips

[solid heart]

Ah perfect, go full then

[dire burrow]

I either take 0 or 1 hit

[solid heart]

Some very good strategies

[dire burrow]

||I’ve been practicing on Rad because I hate myself||

Nah just kidding I just thought it would speed up my progress

And honestly it’s working

[solid heart]

Also, ||climb is the same for any challenge lol, so all 3 have a climb you can see||

[dire burrow]

Mostly die to the climb

[dire burrow]

Or Plats

[solid heart]

I should probably do a ||Nail 0 white spells quick slash and SB only as reference||
Although I know I'll go for hard strats unconsciously

Still, I gave you my videos, also Dyrati's tip list

[keen stream]

dyrati's tips are alr summarized and easy to understand too

[solid heart]

As I said, this is all just practice, watch videos to see how others do it

[solid heart]

Indeed

[dire burrow]

Yeah I’ll watch

Wait sorry

||Next Markoth||

||I have him nailed down mostly but yk more tips would help yeah||

[keen stream]

tbh that whole fight is 90% dodging

just focus on your surroundings and play it safe as much as possible

[solid heart]

Yes, only go for hits when he's either above the top plats, or doing the ||shield spin||

This is Dyrati's guide

[drowsy yarrow]

I'm so glad my guides are being used

[boreal spade]

You are inspirational

[hybrid flare]

||I beat the game for the first time and got the ending where I took in the infection and got sealed what should i do now||

[zinc verge]

start grinding those ||essence||
i recommend revisiting areas where you defeated main bosses

[oblique tide]

where is the modinstaller pack?

[zinc verge]

one hint: ||soul master||

[neat karma]

#1057825333841240104

[oblique tide]

yea but i cant find the installer

[neat karma]

I dont think you checked that channel then

[hybrid flare]

||already got max essence||

[zinc verge]

do you have ||kingsoul||?

[hybrid flare]

Nope

[zinc verge]

explore ||queen's garden|| then

[hybrid flare]

Oh wait i do ||only one half tho||
