Thanks
How exactly do I gain the || mask shard here? I assume I already have but idk lol ||
You get rewards for freeing them, there's also an achievement if you free all of them
Literally omw to free the last one for the achievement rn lol
The shortest one. 👹
You can choose between ||passing through fungal wastes and fog canyon basically. ||
also why can't I see my self on the map
||probably from sly||
You don't have to
Personally, I || went through the City of Tears, then Fungal Wastes, into Fog Canyon, then the Queen's Gardens ||
ohh, well I have no space for it 😭
|| That would make sense, but those shards are notated by hovering over him on this map I'm using, so that wouldn't be it ||
righti just checked the interactive map ||mask shard is from saving bretta||
is it sans reference
Gotcha, thanks
@tight lotus Yes
Yes
I'm using it and the charm which gives more sol when killing enemies
I thought that was never proven
|| I am simply using my eyeballs and seeing Sans and Papyrus lol. Pretty clear to me ||
it isnt
should I replace it with those
||3 charm notches use soul eater and compass is fine cuz ur new and its better for navigation||
This seems pretty dang expensive. || How would I unlock the ability to pay for these? ||
||howling abyss there is a breakable wall||
Thanks
||dashmaster is pretty stinky ngl but if u prefer faster dashes to getting more soul then go for it||
isn't there any way to get one more slot
of course u just gotta find them
|| Would you happen to know where the breakable wall is? Even using a map I can't find it myself lol (although admittedly I could just be overlooking it) ||
👍
wait how do i spoiler image
Depends on the platform you're using
laptop
Gotcha, thanks. || I was looking specifically for a wall that broke into Dirtmouth so ofc I couldn't find it lol ||
It seems I have received || Grimmchild. What decision did I make to get it, out of curiosity? ||
||nah you initially get grimmchild but you'll make the decision later||
Gotcha, thanks
Is there any way to || get back in here once I claim the charm? I think I missed out on an Arcane Egg forever. Not that I know what an Arcane Egg does, but still ||
no
Oof
||arcane egg is the same as a hallownest seal or wanderes journal except worth much more i think 1800 or smth||
|| Gotcha. Sucks to miss out on that but oh well. Thanks ||
I think it’s 1200
And you get an arc 🥚 for 1500 or so dream stuff
Maybe 1200
Forgot

||ayo gang can i get a list of simple key locations bc i have been SCOURING the map and i cannot find one to unlock godseekers sarcophagus||
Oh
||did u kill the guy rightside of colloseum||
Just beat the last ||trial||
yep
Oh…
||city key?||
What abt from ||sly||
||ancient basin?||
||cant remember which ones ive gotten other than Sly and Crazyass||
||who is crazyass 💀||
Hm
If you really need it
Search up a tutorial online
If it’s a no spoilers game just scour the whole map ig
||pretty sure its just sly, colloseum guy, city, ancient basin||
bet bet
||Is there a better charm build for Grimm than this
I was able to get him to phase 3 once with this but i juat wanna know||
I'd probably use ||longnail|| instead of ||sharpshadow|| but it's definitely possible as is
Thx
I'll try ||longnail|| out, i have been missing a lot of hits
||be careful if you've been using sharpshadow a lot, it's easy to get used to the extra dash length||
how do i use customknight mod on multiplayer?
Please go to #modding-discussion , this channel is mainly for unmodded help
does anybody have tips for ||radiant watcher knights|| and ||radiant soul tyrant||? thanks.
Very good charm
I thought it was bad
Till I used it
does ||unbreakable greed|| increase|| trial of the fool money||
damn ok
I’m a staunch completionist and I just found out that ||Pantheon 5 has an insignificant yet existent reward for doing all the bindings at once. Realistically speaking, could the average player pull that off?||
I did Kingdom Hearts III’s ||Limitcut episode|| with similarly strict restrictions, so I’m not new to brutal challenges
if the average player is 50th percentile, then no
clearing ||p5|| alone is like 0.67%
||p5 no bindings is already hard enough for most players, adding all bindings is kinda crazy||
I guess it’s just a matter of whether I’m willing to spend a substantial amount of time trying to do it. The KH3 thing I just mentioned was the hardest thing I’ve done in any game and took me weeks, so maybe this is something that I could give a go and just quit if it stops being fun.
any tips for getting better at bosses in general? or is it just a practice makes perfect thing
try to memorize all their moves, and learn how you want to react to each of them
🪦
||p5ab is definitely not smth an average player can pull off, if i had to estimate i would say a maximum of like 3000 ppl have done it ever (theres no official count so its hard to say for sure, but its around that range). its not smth u can just do in like a couple days effort, ppl usually take weeks if not months of practice to have the consistency needed to beat p5ab, usually pouring in 100+ hrs in ab practice in addition to actual attempts. even p3ab, which is just 10 bosses instead of the whole gauntlet of bosses in p5ab, is above the average player's skill level, with it probably being harder than p5eb. if u want to go for p5ab, i would suggest first downloading toggleable bindings mod and godseeker+ mod if u on pc which would allow ab practice in hog along with other features, and then just start chipping away at p1ab-p4ab and getting comfortable with those before even starting serious effort on p5ab||
Thanks, I’ll be sure to get those mods. I’m just about to start chipping away at the ||HoG||, so I’ll not be trying it for a little while now.
Who are you struggling with?
The more bosses you kill, the more the game’s design language will click. Ultimately, though, it’s about not just memorising all of the moves, but also your strategies for dodging them and punishing them.
way more than 3k 💀
Soulslikes and spectacle fighters tend to be less about clearly defined windows and more about creating your own openings.
Can’t say I believe that given how long it took for someone to no-hit it
thats not related at all
honestly a big tip is to just use ||ddark|| if things get too icky, like in ||watcher knights|| or ||oro and mato||
I haven’t actually fought the latter yet. I’m planning pretty far ahead.
i think people are way too frugal with their soul usage sometimes
then how much? i cant really imagine its anything much more than 3k
Right now I’m just fighting ||Zote|| over and over until ||he runs out of adjectives||
prolly like 4x that fr
Arguing about an exact number is pointless. All you need to know is that it's really difficult, but not impossible.
I was gonna say “How many people do you think played the game?” Until I realised this server alone has 258K people
is there a mod that removes the black border thing when i get down to 1 helth
probably
not anyone in particular, im primarily worried about getting stuck on ||hollow knight and ultimately radiance|| since this is my first run
it always fucks me up when im using ||fury||
yeah, it's really fuckin annoying
kills me a lot against jumpy bosses cuz i can't see that they jumped
Those two aren’t so bad tbh. They’re tough, sure, but very doable.
If you’re coping so far, you can definitely do it
nobody was doing that 
the first one is pretty straightforward. the latter, I actually managed to beat on my first try.
dang, guess im hyping it up too much to myself
||although tbh i have trouble with thk cuz i'm so used to pv||
The latter on your first try is super impressive
The former only took me a few attempts, though
I’m so glad I waited until now to play tbh, since I don’t have to wait long for Silksong
I didn’t know what I was missing, so I wasn’t as hyped for it as everyone else
there's a lot to do in the game, so let's see if you can get it done before it comes out
fr bro
I’m pretty close, I’m at ||108% completion with only a few errant secrets and achievements to mop up for this file||
i started playing about a year back, but i stopped playing before I beat ||p5||. I recently came back to the game and got it done, though!
I’m doing the speedrun and deathless achievements too, so those will be interesting
now I'm going down the rabbit hole of the ||hall of gods||
I've done the speedrun ones, not the deathless ones yet.
i started playing a WHILE back, cause my brother suggested it to me, i got bored and never made it past ||crossroads|| 🪦
the speedrun achievements are actually pretty feesable with a ||shade skip|| and ||acid skip||
after like a year or two of completely forgetting about it i started a new save file and here i am
i did it in 3 hours
Wow, a spoiler detection system. The Kingdom Hearts Discord could use one of those for sure.
i still cant do ||absrad|| using ||fury||
always die in the same spot in the climb
that small rectangle near the top
||aren't you supposed to jump to the side to bait out the beam, then dash onto the platform||
yeh, but the telegraph is alr there when i use my ||dash and wings||
she baits me every single time
Deathless is way scarier tbh. At least failing a speedrun is only a five hour loss.
u could always stall with ||abyss shriek||
i dont think that would work... 
maybe i should just wait for her to do another beam
That and I did the speedrun achievement in Superliminal already, so I’ve dealt with way worse time limits with basically no wiggle room.
u could use ||abyss shriek or shade soul|| to stay up and buy yourself enough time to let the beam drop
then ||dash|| onto the platform
lemme send rq where i usually die
||If you keep dying in the same spot, then heal up before then. Try not to end the phase with only one hit in the tank. ||
he's using ||fury||
Ohhhh
||maybe heal up to 3 (5 if you overcharm) before the climb so you can take a hit, cuz u dont need fury active during the climb||
||or use carefree melody||
Think it’s just reaction time
jump to the right, wait for the shot to come, then ||dash||o the platform
Yeah
u dont gotta face them head on
but most of the time, she's already aiming there before i even land
||u could use baldur shell||
maybe i should gamble and use ||melody|| 
||or heal to 5 masks before the climb so u can take a hit then activate fury in final phase||
its ||ascended||
oh
falling off would still do 4
yeah
hit by the beam would do 8
oh i saw them fall off in the clip so that’s what I was basing off of
wait... how am i supposed to fit in ||melody|| 
math aint mathing
oh shit... i forgot i dont have it
maybe i should do that
just ||dash|| off when im in a tight spot
ye
anyways i better be going folks
have a good night, and i hope u beat that fucker
i will 
Night
are you going for fastkill?
the ||fury|| confuses me
||i have done rad absrad speedkills before but i never tried fury, maybe i should try ascended absrad speedkills with fury just to see how much faster it is lol||
||Pure Vessel Tips
General Tips
- Attack in rhythm: he attacks, you slash twice, he attacks, you slash twice. Don't be greedy
- Resist the urge to shade dash through everything. It can work for a while, but sometimes he will attack too fast for shade cloak to refresh
- You can safely prejump every attack
Moves
- Lunge: jump over him (you may slash from behind or pogo and/or ddark)
- Triple Slash: jump high and pogo (and/or ddark)
- Sword Burst: jump and shade dash through the swords
- Void Tendrils: jump, dash towards him and pogo (you may ddark)
- Parry: do nothing, but if you do trigger it by accident, shade dash through him or jump pogo instantly
- Sword Pillars:
- the gaps are based on his position, so try to position yourself a consistent distance away from him each time
- you may walk up to him and shriek or up-slash (riskier)
- if you shriek, don't slash afterwards because he might parry, and don't stand too close because if he staggers he can hit you
- Focus Blast: either ddark through it and slash him for big damage, or dash away from him and hit him with shade soul

Tip catalogue #hk-help message||
its really fast
i feel like what im doing is illegal
and i aint even getting good rng
how fast is your record kondy?
yea i feel like my ||radabsrad|| speedkill times are reaching the point where good rng is basically needed to beat my pb, like i have a 1min 04s (timed from white title screen fadeout to last hit) and i could probably get it sub 1 minute but it needs some really good rng to have a shot at that
based on that vid... i think the game hates me
noice, my ||radabsrads|| are like 1:40ish
tryna learn to chase more, but it do be ruining me at times
heres the current build, any tips or is this considered good 🤷
if u ||overcharm + ascended u take 8 masks and instantly get fury from one hit||
ye, look, i woke up like 10mins ago
i wasnt smart enough to think of that
what are you using it for
||sharp shadow|| in general is considered bad other than in a very specific parkour challanges speedruns
im pretty sure im gonna ||do hk and radiance with it, or maybe ill pick up another charm notch or something||
shucks 🪦
first time run btw)
if you like it you can continue using it
you should get more upgrades before doing that
getting more || charm notch || is a good idea
yeah, im pretty sure im only missing one or two
i could be wrong though
3
noted
look at this shit
unlucky again?
kinda, but a bit better than usual
she hates me and would refuse to do the climb until she's down to 10%
||just so you know she can't trigger climb until she's done with her current attack||
||for speedkills u should be taking a hit on like the first attack for fury||
i mean it seemed like you handled them just fine
i wanna learn the ||walljump|| tech for the climb
maybe climb phase do starts when she's down to 10%
How to not get hit ||for flower quest||
finally
This was my 2nd attempt at trying to go slightly faster just now. No ||fury|| though.
You can unlock that in ||mantis village||
thx
Np
your ||climb|| looks risky
lets agree that dyrati is a god for doing a 1m 42s speed kill on ||absrad|| without ||fury||
i did it 
grats
ik 
i unlearned that strat you taught me before
im tryna learn it again, i think i somehow did it in this attempt
wtf is that plats phase
lmao
that rng goes crazy
It's only in ||God home when absolute ||
is there a reason for no ||fireball ||at 50?
I'm just not used to it tbh
twas a god rng ngl
because of|| ab|| practice?
and that sword burst in that spot is just 🤌
yeah. I was using some of my ||ab|| strats here
makes sense
i finally have a decent kill on ||absrad|| 
The main difference I'm seeing is the jump timing. It's a bit off the rhythm.
Each beam makes two noises, and I try to make the knight move in sync with those noises
das exactly my problem, i forgot the timing on the jumps 
i turned off the sounds 
time for ||absrad ab|| ig
\
||You can kind of see in my vid how I jump as the thin beam appears, and double jump as it becomes thick. When I jump I haven't committed to left or right yet. I'm waiting to see which way I should go. I also give myself enough space on both the right and the left, because if I block one of those directions, and the beam appears just off to the other side, I'll get trapped.||
i react based on what i see 
but i'll try doing that, baiting the beam in opposite direction
that sounds way safer than what i do
||I think of it a bit like PV when he starts doing void tendrils. I jump no matter what but I haven't really decided where I'm going yet||
depending on whether it's ||sword burst or tendrils||
so its just staying midair when the line thing appears?
yeah, you can see how I drop down sometimes too, because I'm auto-piloting the platforms, but hyper-focusing on the ||beams||
that climb is clean af
he helped me its only natural i thank him 
||Sitting at a bench causes most enemies to respawn. If you go from the grave to the grey mourner, killing all enemies along the way, then collect the flower, and don't sit at a bench, you can head back relatively safely.||
That's genius thanks
I’m stuck at 111% and have no clue what I’m missing
||I’m on p5, fully upgraded nail and dream nail (and watched the moth lady disappear), all mask and soul upgrades, all charm and charm notches, all spell and spell upgrades, and all the items and have killed every boss and dream boss||
||Check this completionist checklist:
https://hollowknightchecklist.com/
If you still can't find it, you can check the save analyzer here:
https://reznormichael.github.io/hollow-knight-completion-check/||
did you go back to ||the seer||?
yeah, he said he watched the moth lady disappear
i also have this
(completion guide)
holy useful

guys i have a question can i defeat the guy in red and then upgrade the charms?
no
Tbf the question was not that clear
is it required to upgrade them ||fragile charms||?
They don’t give %
i mean is it required to beat ||nkg|| to upgrade those, mb
no
at least i dont think so
ok i dont think i can beat it like this imma upgrade some stuff
i don't think so, i gave one to the lady but i didn't have enough money to retrieve it so i am stuck at 111% because im broke
yhe i know i have all my saves 112%, except this one because of laziness
i didnt even consider doing 112% on all my saves 
its easy just a little time consuming
there's one orb in the inventory, which u have to collect parts for, what does it do when u collect all parts
im guessing its the soul thing
||vessel fragment||
oh
still useful once you get all of em
||how to get more slots for charms||
you get a ||notch|| throughout the game
but you can buy some of it from ||salubra||
where's salabra
||I got 112 on 4 files. It is a bit tedious.||
she's in ||crossroads||
just past where you fought ||gruz mom||
haven't fought gruz mom
k
||crossroads|| map
zoom in on ||forgotten crossroads||
I get it dw
download lumafly, and please ask in #modding-discussion for mods n stuff
wait how does gruz mom look like@keen stream
yup, i did the 112% between ||any radiance 2.0||
you'll find her sleeping
a giant fly?
yeh
I've beaten it
keep going right, you'll find a house and a bench there
||salubra|| is in that house
thank u
||what is elegant key for||
you can use it on a door near ||soul sanctum||
is there any way to know what im missing? like im missing a withe sphere but idk wich one
yes
oh then its a || charm with two parts one talking to the white lady and the other by finishing the white palace||
idk where that is

🔹 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.

Ok thx 👍
Do you know the bench with the shortcut beside it
unc status spoilers 🙏😭👴
What would be better in ||Steel Soul, Frag Strength or Heart||
Not die, but ig ||frag heart so you can take more hits but strength you can kill enemies faster, just adjust to your playstyle||
Guys I beat ||path of pain|| is there anything new i unlocked?
You get an entry

Hello
I mean you get the feeling of accomplishment of anything
any tips to defeat ||the watcher knights?||
You can ||use the chandelier to reduce the amount you fight by one (Before going to the arena, climb up and hit the roof)||
where's that
okay thanks. Btw any ||charms recommendation?||
Fr also I’ve seen on TikTok || in the kings throne there’s like white warriors you can challenge or sum how do you unlock that||
Its a mod
||Spell Twister, Shaman Stone, Mark of Pride||
||Spell twister? never heard of that||
||Try to go back to soul sancutm||
||Forgot about the boss at the soul sanctum||
If you take || city storeroom stag station go down to the right and after a long hallway there will be a bench, the wall next to it is breakable, after breaking just go up and there will be the door||
||the white figures in the bg are in the standard white defender fight, tho ofc you cannot fight them other than in the pale court mod||
how do i put the spoil thing?
||It is before the boss room, there is a room before it||
Yhe i know i've played it
Before you sent the image, there is an eye icon
no idea where that is
oh yeah thx
If its a text, put || over your text
how the hell do i get from there, the other side is too dark i can't see anything
Then you must explore more, trust me if you ever find the door you will recognize, i think for now you don't need what is behind it
Keep going up
alr i'll try ty
you need to pay ||geo|| from a place called ||city of tears||
and yes you need a ||skill|| you dont have yet
thanks
np
what should I do next
everything seems to be a dead end?
you prob aint going on the right path
wait
lemme photoshop it rq
forgot
you need to fight a boss there
simple tho
yea
i killed the boss
did you go to ancestral mound
the skill?
yea
yea
||ancestral mound|| needs to be spoilered
didnt tell me to
the big fly?
did you get ||dash||?
even if the bot didnt catch the phrase, spoiler rules still apply to this channel as always. the bot does not include some of the keywords that it probably should include, so u should still be mindful of the spoiler rules at all times
k
no
what's that
||the place where you found the big fly||
wait
||ohh you have to shoot spells at that armadillo like thingy||
correct
also
that's not where i found the ||big fly||?
||when you get in the fly is sleeping and the doors get locked then it attacks you in a zigzag pattern and smaller flies burst out after it dies||
right?
can anyone recommend me a build with those
for what purpose? combat or exploration
well you could use ||soul catcher, shaman, compass||
|| shaman, longnail, compass|| is pretty good too
||I thought you mean after defeating the soul master. I just realized before his room at the top there's a space that was guarded by slime goo that contains the spell twister||
||And I haven't defeated the mantis lords so yeah I crashed out pretty badly ( 7th attempt )||
Who can give me the android version of hollow knight I wanna play it 
just search “hollow knight apk” on google
My friend said it bugs
yeah the game was full of bugs
What can I do?
dont know. Play PC version?
I don't have a pc , unfortunately
just play android version
U mean APK?
yes
Oh yeah I remembered that he said there was a bug in the dream cutscene or something
the gameplay is good dont worry about it
the only thing is there's no cutscenes
its just black screen
I always watch the videos so I know
good
if you want to skip the cutscenes ( black screen ) just press the slash button
Imma try thx
okay
Btw my friend showed me a video of the bug
mind to show us?
mark it as a spoiler
uhm
I'm new to discord
<@&283547423706447872>
Done
what
the white screen of doom💀
they are discussing how to get pirated hk
wait it's illegal?
yeah?
maybe it wasn't worth a mod ping 
Huh what is happening
dw guys already deleted it
Is there any fix to this bug?
I didn't know for that cuz I never found ||her||
unfixable probably
So I'm cooked ?
yes
ya did it 

Is this good for ||trial of the warrior||
||the 1st trial?||
I'd remove ||Sharp Shadow|| for ||Soul Catcher||.
just press the image
what r the names of the 2 bosses

i need
||Galien and Elder Hu||.
ty
Fr everytime i struggle to find ||herrah the beast||
Ye
where is ||galien||
||Deepnest||.
||deepnest||
Near the ||Failed Tramway||.
Hold on imma give you the location
I already searched the whole ||deepnest|| but never found her
am I missing something or what
ded old man
Nuh uh
hold up lemme fight him
weird? like freaky?
i finished it in 5 seconds
why does your knight head look like a tumour 😭
||quick focus is good, steady body is fine if you like it. For the rest you really wanna focus on spells and soul instead of normal nail though. And sharp shadow is generally not good.
But use what you feel most comfortable with. The first trial isn't too difficult anyway||
he's after a surgery bro
xd
but he has a scythe instead of a nail thats why i use him
i forgor the name i named the skin folder "fein"
it is
comprehensible
images which aren't automatically get deleted
guys how do I beat ||vengefly king||?
just jump and attack down when he dives, and one shot the flies
i cannot oneshot the flies
they are two shot
o.o i'ts fine anyway just attack him when he dives and you are good to go 👍
doubt, but his moves are pretty simple
alr wtv u say fn
😠
but fr all of his attacks leave gaps to not get hit by the paint, just stay a little far from the blue and red
see i told you
the fight pretty chill
at what point should I have all the upgrades? I'm at the ||coiled nail|| rn and I've beaten ||radiance, nkg, and on pantheon 3|| rn. Also at 7 hp I think, and 2/3 of those additional soul things. Should I keep going with ||p3|| or go level stuff up? This is my first play through
ngl pretty more fun if you find out yourself
alr
||P3 is already harder than anything you've done, you should just upgrade, because you just have the most difficult part of the game ahead||
get the last ||nail|| upgrade at least or ||spells upgrades||
the sage?
👍
Yes
I have all the ||spell upgrades||, main reason I haven't upgraded stuff like ||hp, nail, and soul|| is just bc I couldn't find the stuff to upgrade them so I figured it was good enough 😭
there are alot of guides for the masks
only|| the collector || is annoying
Ar this point you can just look in the wiki for the scattered stuff across the world ngl
if you get the last || nail|| upgrade it will be alot more easier
In the first half 
i got everytihng maxed out
Alright, I've gotten up to the ||hornet fight in pantheon 3|| so I'm assuming I don't need that much stuff upgraded for ||p3|| but around how many more ||masks|| would you say I need for the future stuff in ||pantheon|| cuz rn I'm at 7
ok then for the ||collector|\ you can use || ||nail charms|| for the little enemies
Aight
relatable
In the ||collosium or in the pantheon?||
okay fuck this game
even i struggle
i quit
Yeah, you're ||at the end, but P4 is a big difficulty spike, so you should at least have everything but 1 mask, although that mask would be huge.
At the very minimum the nail, it's a 25% damage increase||
but the trigger to her death is the animal target him
||yeah my charm build is revolved around my nail so that sounds really helpful lmao. Ty!||
||wayward|| is essential for moral support
but you can substitute the soul charm for the ||mark of pride||
I wanna eventually memorize the map and not need ||wayward|| but ik that'll take a WHILE
There's a couple areas I'm good exploring without it but
oh yhe for exploriing is great but i dont recomend it on a ||pantheon||
i love how the bot doesn't tag ||wayward|| lol
yea it only really shines in a first playthru
for most ppl
there are numerous ways to go arround him the bot i mean
I personally like going with ||a pure nail build, so fragile strength, mark of pride, quick nail, then usually sharp shadow so I have a bit more survivability. Although I know a lot of other players focus on spells for their mass damage, I personally just like having the precision of the nail so I can have my nail deal good damage and not throw myself off trying to mass use spells since I often choke when I do that. It's up to the player tho, my build may not be good for you so I'd say try and if it doesn't work for ya then try smth else||
yea there is we know
just it doesn't account for everything cuz a lot of thigs are context based
i use the exact same build
Hell yeah
i prefer throwing my self into the enemy than throwing ||spells||
idk i forget i have ||spells||
For me it really depends on the boss. I absolutely love using ||spells|| when I can, tho for example with smth like ||nkg|| I just focused on my nail so I could get chip damage between attacks and not throw off my flow
yea it works like that
some of the more pattern bosses ||spells|| are only useful in their slow attacks
i do not care which boss it is i will always be on their feet beating the shi out of them with a nail
I love ||staggering bosses while they're actively on their first attack, and I don't even have a fully upgraded nail yet. Just goes to show how crucial charm builds are||
wth is triggering the bot
oh
nvm
ofc, ||spells|| are pretty useful like in the ||dung defender|| you can ||descending dark|| to cancel his underground ||dive||
Speaking of which, I need to find out where I can get more ||pale ore||
do you want all of the locations
Sure
i was gonna write it but im lazy, ima send a screenshot
Aight
||well tbf nail damage doesnt matter for staggers since for the majority of bosses its based on hit count not damage output, so its mainly just quick slash doing the heavy work in that case||
lol
indeed i play lol
Oh really? I didn't know that ty
yea bosses have 2 ||stagger numbers|| for hits
1 is just hit it x times to ||stagger||
2 is ||combo it x times within a certain timeframe between each hit to stagger||
this one i didnt know, which boss has this mechanic
Yes. You can try in ||H1 she has a combo value of 6, <2s||
i think all the ones that ||stagger||
Everyone
So could you technically beat a boss without ||staggering||
No, the first number is also always there
Ah
||equip mop, quick slash and steady body, and just walk into Hornet while attacking, she will stagger every 6 hits before even attacking
Add strength and you'll notice it's the same||
fr now that i think about it almost all bosses ||stager||
||Watchers, all dream warriors, Mato, White def, soul warrior, mawlek, vk, gruzz, MMC, god tamer, TL, Flukemarm, Nosk, Mantis Lords, Obblobbles and SoB.
Also false knight/champ, Radiance and Uumuu are the four that are not based on hits||
Now that I think abt it I don't think ||nosk stagers|| does he?
Yeah, I forgot
damn
i've played hollow knight so many times and never tought about it
Yeah, you just never consider a lot of stuff
Even after 900 hours I keep learning new stuff
Would yall say ||charm builds revolved around nail or spells is better assuming you have all spells and max nail||
damn 900 hours, i have like 70 more or less in the original, and like 300 in the cracked version
||The best is to have both
Basically Strength, Quick Slash, Shaman and whatever 2 notches more, ideally steady body or twister||
But swapping ||shaman for mop always works too||
i always use a nail only, because im too lazy to use ||spells||
i occasionally use them for i frames
||for the pillars, I like to jump right next to him, not above him. The spots directly to his left and right are always safe, and you can pogo and ddark him||
u can't expect to be able to discuss how to pirate hk in the official hk server that's partnered with discord
there are no real legal ramifications, but it can get the server terminated
||its saying i havent completed the ritual but ive killed nightmare grimm already?||
||apparently its also still here ill kill him again in a bit||
NOW they’re gone
das weird
Yea idk why it happened
||I thought I needed p5 for 112% but after searching I didn’t need it and apparently I had to kill Grimm again, but regardless I’m still gonna do p5 I’ve almost killed radiance twice||
normal or absolute?
Gonna blame it on mods
nahh... even doing ||radiance|| hitless is still way easier than ||absrad||
ohh, thats good then
keep practicing until you can do her in ||ascended||
I didn’t find her too hard my first time actually getting through everything, searched it up and I got to her last phase on my first go
Probably, but I only downloaded my skin mod when I got to ||pantheon||
and it took me a few days just to get to her last phase 
The trouble I was having was on ||pure vessel|| but that’s only cuz when I got there I forgot his entire moveset but after practicing I could almost do him no hit
do yall have any tips for doing ||wall climb|| in climb phase?
but i think i can do the whole thing if ||absrad|| wont shoot laser at me
why do u want to ||wall climb|| in ||climb phase||? just dont, its way safer
speed kill 
i also wanna try it for ||absrad ab||
Ive never wall climbed I just jump platform to platform lol
i mean there are better things to optimize before trying to optimize ||climb phase||, a huge part of ur timesaves early on will just be due to better rng. i would suggest aggressively ||double jumping|| from platform to platform for now
That is fast
is it?
You could’ve dashed through a few lasers but yea
do you guys have any tips on how to get consistent ||nail turnarounds||
wdym by turnarounds
||its pretty much just a timing thing, u just want to turn around right after u swing ur nail and keep a consistent rhythm with it.||
ohh, is that a thing??
i thought the game is just messing with me when i experience it 
nahh, it gives you more speed
thats why when you look at my replays im agressively pulling my character left and right while tryna stay in thae air
demn
My tip is to not do them because you don’t really need it unless you want to do ||anyrad or radiance speedruns||
||yea, the gist of it is that the turnaround cancels the nail swing animation early so that u can take full advantage of the quick slash cooldown||
i also tried for fastkill btw, and climb just destorys me everytime
its so painful
i get a double 1 cycle, and than climbs just slow af, or i get hit
ig i wont do it 
||absrad ab|| takes so fckn long for some reason
yea on average it should take around like 4-6 minutes to kill
im cooked
nah it just needs some practice, its really more of a test of consistency
im fumbling when the fight is longer than what im used to 
||dont worry bout it. i have a hollow knight save 300+ hours and i cant beat pantheon 5||
which boss kills you the most?
have you tried to beat it tho
yes i have
the only real hurdle in ||p5|| fkr someone who beat ||p4|| is ||absrad||
this is such a huge buff
||markoth and gpz|| combo is also a huge hindrance in ||p5||
its a bit embarrasing but... well, i cant beat the elder for crap
i can beat every other dang boss but not the elder
what elder
||elder hu||???
||elder hu|| lol
wtf
nag
indeed
nah
maybe if your controller or keyboard has a 1000ms delay
btw please spoiler tag the ||elder|| or ||elder hu||
ok
how do you even fight him
thats so fckd up ngl 
yeah i know
i cant i play on nintendo
you're doing something royally wrong
demn
ngl, ||elder hu|| killed me just once or twice when i was experiencing serious mental block doing ||p5||
||i also struggle wit h the collecter||
I just ||shade dash|| to not get hit with the ||elder||
now thats valid, but ||elder hu|| is insane
hmm yeah i see what you mean
For that I would suggest taking out the adds
yeah i try but its just so anoying how he jumps
I hear that
you can do ||elder hu|| without using ||dash|| ngl 
and the noises, worse then ||salubras blessing||
True, but it’s the fastest way I do it because he’s just annoying to fight
i feel you on that one
HE is!
lemme record ||elder hu|| rq, just to show you what i usually do against him
My fav boss to fight is easy but fun if you dont just ||juggle|| him, i like ||Dung Defender|| bossfieght a lot
i wish my puny laptop can handle both elden ring and hk 
lol
||dung defender|| dies way too fast to be enjoyable
In late game, or if you don’t have a skill issue
i know, if only it was harder and not just one shot like ||white defender|| or ||radiant||
i suppose so
||white defender attuned|| is pretty aight
The issue with ||WD is that juggling|| skews some attempts by making the boss suddenly be much easier
bruh, the recorder shit recorded discord again instead of the game
i just want something fresh, maybe a certain 🐝 🪡
hate it when that happens
i suppose i could get a recording of hollow knight if i used my computer to record the handeheld nintendo 💀
its just ||dashing|| on the right moment
yeah
always hit him upwards so he'd continue moving downwards
this boss becomes such a nonchallenge with ||shade dash||. even without it its pretty ez
i see
I usually avoid cheesing ||wd|| but I got hit by him twice on my last ||r5|| attempt
fr
assiest boss in the game
yeah i guess
I really wanna see how ninjy48 is fucking it up so bad
i just struggle somehow
just gimme a minute or 10 i need to do something first
back
I kinda suspect it's like nobody being stuck on ||mmc||
thats what im thinking as well
if he's stuck on ||elder hu||, he might also be stuck with ||mmc||
although maybe he doesn't have all upgrades. Missing ||shade dash|| can make it a bit harder
||if he has access to p5 then he has to have shade dash||
but he alr unlocked ||p5||...
Oh, I can't remember needing to cross a ||black barrier|| though
hmmm... u joined the server today, and ur first 3 messages are talking about how ur only hurdle to beating the "hardest challenge" baked into the game is ||elder hu||
sussy wussy
lol
hm...
Oh I see, you need it to unlock the bosses
||well traitor lord (p4 unlock requirement) needs shade dash, and also void heart (p5 unlock requirement) also need shade dash||
isdaso? 
ok ima start fighting him now
And ||Markoth too||
ok i am done
i am gonna send it
it will be practically unseeable
bruh
exceeds file lmit
too poor for nitro
so uh
i think the server supports up to 100mb without nitro
just try to compress it a bit more
he can't send it regardless. he has new knight role
thats a thing??
he lied about his attempt tho, which pretty much confirms my suspicions
ye
das sad
somehow i sent a 250 mb video yesterday here, idk how that worked. normally my limit is 100 mb in this server
He's no longer 
check his roles
overwritten by the pronoun icon
New knights can send (spoilered) files specifically in this channel since a lot of newcomers join the server for in-game help
Ah ture
is that right
i'm still pretty sure this is a le funny troll alt account and that he'll be muted/banned in 1 business day
eh just some guy claiming that the only reason he can’t beat ||p5|| is cuz of ||elder hu||
And yalls first thought wasnt this is a troll?
gotta give the benefit of the doubt
What they gotta give is more effort into trolling
he said help but i didnt expect it to be ||elder hu|| 
There's no way it's not a troll, I beat ||elder hu|| first try during my first ever playthrough
Why ||elder Hu|| 💀
||Do I need Joni's Blessing equipped to access this?||
||You dont need it, though yes it is the best way||
yes
you need 15 masks
also for you info if you go to the lift in ||dirtmouth|| before ||crystal peaks|| and || crystal dash|| toward ||howling cliffs|| you will arrive at a ||lifeblood|| area. you can also equipt ||unbreakable heart ||and use ||jonis blessing.||
Thanks
did u get into the ||lifeblood core||
||I think I need to have every lifeblood charm equipped to do this, when I went there first I had Joni's Blessing and that one charm that grants you two extra health||
I think it's ||lifeblood core||
you get the core from the unlocked place
Right
Yeah I did
nice
you need 15 or more masks
there are also tutorials on youtube if you need help
Question
yeah
i think you have to keep it
As I was saying
i would say
Can someone explain why I can't enter here?... I don't really understand the dlc
Yeah so I think I have to rely on charms
||Getting lifeblood seeds isn't gonna work cuz I'm just gonna lose health 😭||
Right
you're missing some bosses
||stag station to the hidden station||
just try your best to conserver health
||Thing is is that if I get lifeblood seeds for health and then I lose it I can't get it back :p||
So I have to rely on charms
yes
||I can use a bench for lifeblood charms conversely||
so essentially you would have to be careful in the ||abyss||
So it works out
Yeah
if you want to know them, its listed here, also their place:
||hive knight - bee hive
collector - love tower
gallien - deepnest||
@empty atlas

for the ||collector||
