[languid kelp]

But I'm glad I saved him, I guess

[acoustic sigil]

You must stand above him

Morally

[unreal oriole]

|| Guys how to find querrel ||

[opal lotus]

Does anyone know why the achievement ||keen hunter|| isn't popping on ps5? I have encountered all the enemies needed for it and even ||the hunter|| says that I've defeated them all

[hollow bramble]

||why, and where's the last place u found him||

[hollow prawn]

Feelspkman

K00 really needs an update

[unreal oriole]

|| In the bench, in forgotten crossroads , like I saw him at the station ||

[unreal oriole]

Why do you hate silksong

[hollow bramble]

||what areas of map have u found||

|| and where else have u found quirrel||

[hollow prawn]

ew silksong

I think the more important question is why does one need to find ||quirrel||

[tame trout]

||so if i die to oro, i have to do the whole thing again?||

[acoustic sigil]

Yes

But now you can practice the fight in the ||hall of gods||

[hearty lark]

||yo guys im on 99% and idk what to do now... just beaten nkg
||

[acoustic sigil]

Can you send a pic of your map and inventory and charms

[hearty lark]

i cant capture all the map...

[tame trout]

i didn't beat him

[acoustic sigil]

Zoomed out is fine

[acoustic sigil]

Doesn't matter

[hollow bramble]

u dont have to all u gotta do is see him

[tame trout]

ohh okayy that really helped thanks

[tame trout]

alright thanks

[hearty lark]

||thommie i guess now i need to get essence for 2400 thing from the seer... and money for unbreakable charms (greed, heart and strength)||

[acoustic sigil]

That would bring you 1% extra

12 unknown remain

[hearty lark]

i got all charms

beaten all ||dream warriors||

OHH

i didnt beat ||trial of fool||

🙂

[hollow bramble]

thats 1%

[acoustic sigil]

That's another 1%

[hollow bramble]

||pantheons || is 4 more

[hearty lark]

HELL NAW

[acoustic sigil]

5 if they've never been there ||(god tuner)||

[hollow bramble]

true

[hearty lark]

what are best sources that remain for essence?

[acoustic sigil]

||Dream bosses||

[hearty lark]

done all of them

[acoustic sigil]

No you haven't

||That's the dream warriors, I mean the refights||

[hollow bramble]

ur definitely missing some ||dream bosses - think dreamer false knight and dreamer soul master||

[hearty lark]

ohh niiiice

[hollow bramble]

how much ||essence|| do u have

[hearty lark]

2200

and 1113 geo 💀

[hollow bramble]

||did u beat any of the dreamer bosses of normal bosses - not dream warriors||

[hearty lark]

||lost kin only ig||

[hollow bramble]

||theres false knight, soul master, and dung defender all i can think of rn||

[keen stream]

also ||essence tree|| or smth

[flat hull]

Can someone help me with ||the hornet fight in kingdoms edge||

?

[radiant raft]

Spam ||spells at her and her weird little trap things she throws around the arena||

[flat hull]

Idk but|| I’ve been trying it a few times but when I died a certain amount of times (I wasn’t really counting) they just disappeared?||

Is that supposed to happen??

[keen stream]

what disappeared?

[flat hull]

They did ||save me from the cast off shell though once I went pad the boss room ||

[keen stream]

you alr defeated her then

[flat hull]

||I died a few times but never actually beat them||

Does that still count?

[keen stream]

wtf, my brain is not braining

[flat hull]

I also ||got the proof of resolve achievement??||

[keen stream]

if she saved you from the rubble, that means the fight is done

[flat hull]

It might just be buggy since I’m on switch

[flat hull]

I’m really confused

[radiant raft]

Can you go back to the boss arena

[keen stream]

so you died, and when youre in the boss room, the fight didnt trigger?

[flat hull]

Exactly

[keen stream]

wtf

[flat hull]

No it’s blocked up now

[radiant raft]

Then you beat her

[keen stream]

the game mustve bugged

[worldly gust]

So how would I speedrun hk in 5 hours

[keen stream]

do the whole thing normally

set a progression path

[flat hull]

I did have ||the defenders crest and spore shroom charm equipped so that might’ve killed her once I’d died||

Could that still beat her afterwards?

[radiant raft]

Do you have ||The Kings Brand in your inventory?||

[flat hull]

Yes

[radiant raft]

Then you’ve won and don’t need to worry about her fight anymore

You’re good

[flat hull]

That’s good to know

[radiant raft]

He doesn’t know about those yet

[keen stream]

oh yeh, mb

[flat hull]

It’s fine I left it spoilered

Also does the beating ||mantis lords give you anything apart from access to deep nest?||

[radiant raft]

||A charm, a bit of money and the respect of the mantises||

[flat hull]

||I managed to get around them with the tear thing after giving up for ages||

||Is seven masks and three soul vessels enough top properly beat them?||

[radiant raft]

Yeah they’re kinda an early game boss tbh

[flat hull]

Oh ok

I kinda feel like I’m getting too good stuff while leaving boss fights and stuff behind

Is there an ||especially good charm loadout to beat soul warriors?||

[flat hull]

Sorry I got the names mixed up, I meant ||watcher knights ||

[ebon copper]

||get vengeful, get dash, savequit to mound, get claw, savequit to mound, get forgottten stag, buy shaman, bench at salubra, die, do shadeskip, get dreamnail, get kings station, get relic, bench, do watcher knights, sell relics to lemm, savequit, travel to dirtmouth, get lantern, travel to forgotten stag, go to peaks, get cheart, go to fog canyon via acid skip, perform qga, do umu, drop to deepnest, do beast den, get distant stag, travel to dirthmouth, do thk||

[hollow bramble]

damn tahts crazy

[ebon copper]

you have a lot of time to make mistakes

[worldly gust]

nice thanks

[hollow bramble]

||play safe and ddark when two of them jump and roll to you||

[flat hull]

Ok thanks

[hollow bramble]

||i find that the best times to attack is after they slash so u dash away then walk back and attack or after they finish jumping||

[sharp nacelle]

how do I get there?

[ruby shuttle]

have you been to a place called ||Soul Sanctum||?

[sudden lintel]

Pookie when is the honeymoon

[sudden lintel]

Beat a boss then use the ||ability u get from it||

[sharp nacelle]

okay

[sharp nacelle]

yeah

[brisk sedge]

Guys

I've seen on YouTube that you can Slash with the ||nail|| and the slash would go ||far || like a ranged ||weapon|| how do I unlock it?

[lethal flame]

||grubberfly elegy|| charm

free all ||grubs|| to get it

[brisk sedge]

How many ||notches|| does it take and where should I get it?

[brisk sedge]

🙂

[inner hound]

||3 notches||

[lethal flame]

3

[brisk sedge]

I do not recall where are the ||grubs|| I freed to look for the rest on a 112% roadmap

[brisk sedge]

That's also pretty bad

Mm

[lethal flame]

it's a bad charm overall

[brisk sedge]

And how do I unlock ||sister's of battle||

[lethal flame]

fight them in ||p5||

[unreal oriole]

I saw a video on YouTube, the mc with him . I thought they will be friends

[brisk sedge]

It seems good but not for that many ||notches||

[brisk sedge]

I didn't even unlock the first

[lethal flame]

the hits don't generate soul and deal less dmg

[brisk sedge]

It's pretty bad

💀

[brisk sedge]

Can't I unlock them in this place where I can fight all the bosses solo again?

[lethal flame]

no

[brisk sedge]

🥲

[lethal flame]

only after vsing them in ||p5||

[inner hound]

they are unlocked in ||Hall of Gods|| after encountering them in ||p5|| (you dont need to beat them)

[unreal oriole]

|| I got to the soul master but then I discovered some elevator and then I am in forgotten crossroads . Should I fight the soul master now ? ||

[brisk sedge]

I forgot to spoiler it

[inner hound]

I would do it

but do whatever you want

[brisk sedge]

Are the gates that need me to encounter certain bosses like this the ||Pantheon||?

[brisk sedge]

Yeah you probably would want to to get the ||lower soul attack||

[primal elk]

the image u sent literally has ||pantheon of the master|| in its name

you should be able to infer the answer from that

[lethal flame]

lol tru

[static geode]

Where do i get the ||kingdom's edge map?||
Someone ping me plz

[sudden lintel]

In ||kingdoms edge||? ||Nah but fr it's inside like a pipe thing on the wall|| iirc

Or if ||corny isnt there its at iselda shop||

[tame trout]

||what's a good time on p1?||

first time to win it

[zinc verge]

Heres a tip
Have 108% before you do ||pantheons||

[brisk sedge]

Huh

[brisk sedge]

Wth

Lol

[brisk sedge]

I don't remember

[brisk sedge]

I didn't even finish the game once😭

Brooo that's a name

Well thanks I should do but I really wanna fight the ||sisters of battle|| as soonly as possible

[acoustic sigil]

Yes names are also spoilers

[sharp nacelle]

Ok I ||Beat the boss|| so how do i get there

[livid shoal]

Other side

[sharp nacelle]

how

[brave tundra]

explore

[sharp nacelle]

okay

[hazy yarrow]

what do i do here..

[buoyant flame]

Any tips for ||White Defender||?

[hollow bramble]

explore ofc

[buoyant flame]

I'm trying ||p4||

[ebon copper]

just use ||shriek|| and keep distance

[hollow bramble]

dont get too greedy ||he seems like a simple boss but if u underestimate him u could end up losing a lot of lives. for healing, u could gamble when he throws his poop around||

[fiery grove]

hey guys

i need help with something

[ebon copper]

sure, but do you really want it to not be done faithfully?

[fiery grove]

[dawn grove]

What do you need help with

[fiery grove]

[dawn grove]

Type your text and then type || both sides

[fiery grove]

|| i play hollow knight on pc and im struggling to get the embrace the void achievement (p5) is there any glitch that can make me do the p5 easily and get the achievement? ||

[fiery grove]

4000

[tight lotus]

[fiery grove]

[tight lotus]

||how much does the first difficult of coliseum of fools give||

[fiery grove]

1k

[tight lotus]

oh nice

[fiery grove]

if u have || mark of pride and the nail art and abyss shriek u should do the 2nd one itll be easy ||

i used to farm there to get my || unbreakable charms||

[fiery grove]

tell me how man

[ebon copper]

||https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/|| go here upload your savefile and check the give all achievements

[lethal flame]

[fiery grove]

so i do any ending and itll count as the || embrace? ||

[ebon copper]

THANK YOU GUYS

SO MUCH <3

[vale tulip]

what charms should i use for ||pantheon 3||

[brisk sedge]

Where do I find the forth from the right

[grand tapir]

The one with the sea shell looking head?

[brisk sedge]

I supposed it was a widow fan 🪭
Yes

[grand tapir]

||Go to Howling Cliffs and look for a platform with a grave||

[brisk sedge]

Thanks

[grand tapir]

Np

[winter lynx]

I need tips for ||sly|| cause his 2nd phase is impossible

[ebon copper]

for ||sly|| just keep distance, last phase wait for the last moment,|| dash|| away, and hit him 2 times, or do a ||nail art||

[acoustic sigil]

||Stay in the center of the arena and wait for Sly to come to you. When he does, dash away to avoid the nail and Shade Soul him. If you're out of Soul, charge Great Slash while Sly is jumping around, then when he comes to attack you, dash away and Great Slash him instead.

[grand tapir]

:( I'm not getting 🐌

[acoustic sigil]

Ew Relyea

[fiery grove]

EW?

[ebon copper]

[acoustic sigil]

He fell off recently tbh iirc imo

Idk how good this video is, I didn't watch it

[fiery grove]

i havent watched him since 2 years or smth

but it helped me beating him

[ebon copper]

i mean, how bad could it be, ||sly|| isnt quite the most coplex of bosses

lmao, he uses ||sharp shadow||

[fiery grove]

||sharp shadow ||is underrated

[ebon copper]

its bait, its -dps

[tight lotus]

||I need a build for this dream boss||

[ebon copper]

||shaman wtone, soulcatcher, nail masters glory and grubsong prob||

[fiery grove]

|| long nail, shaman stone, dream shield ||

[brisk sedge]

Guys

[tight lotus]

which one is better

[ebon copper]

never use ||dreamshield||

like ever

[tight lotus]

k

[fiery grove]

kondy is a god

so listen to that guy

[fiery grove]

i never did lmao

[brisk sedge]

I do not recall how to get up there

[ebon copper]

im mid, it says it in my bio

[fiery grove]

i js thought itll be better

how much do u got

[tight lotus]

7

[ebon copper]

so you do

[fiery grove]

||shaman stone|| is essential

[tight lotus]

wdym

[brisk sedge]

How do I get to ||Howling cliffs||

I don't remember

[ebon copper]

go up on the left side of ||kings pass||

just up

[jade sedge]

||Go up from the baldur place||

[ebon copper]

you really do tho

[brisk sedge]

From the fall space?

[tight lotus]

I don't bro, I can't fit them all

[brisk sedge]

Place*?

[brisk sedge]

The place where I fall? In the beginning?

[brisk sedge]

Get ||notches||

[ebon copper]

||shaman = 3 notches
soul catcher = 2
nail masters glory = 1
grubsong = 1
3 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 7|| @tight lotus

[jade sedge]

||The place where you are in the screenshot. The beginning works too but you can also go from where you already are||

[brisk sedge]

I don't remember how...

[ebon copper]

thats true...

didnt look at the ss

.

[brisk sedge]

I went there but I can remember how

[jade sedge]

Went to which place?

[brisk sedge]

||Howling cliffs||

[tight lotus]

||i have long nail not nail master glory||

[ebon copper]

you also have ||nail masters glory||, its in the bottom row

[jade sedge]

Are you right now where you were in the screenshot you sent?

[brisk sedge]

Yes

[tight lotus]

I beraly use the nail techniques, just the regular attack

[jade sedge]

||Drop down through the chest to the baldur arena. Walk a bit right and theres a wall you can climb||

[brisk sedge]

Oh right

Thanks

[ebon copper]

than use ||steady body instead, or swap both that and grubsong for longnail||

[tight lotus]

idk man what's better

[hollow bramble]

this lever ?

[ebon copper]

||grubsong|| gives you more survivability, if you are taking dmg, its prob better

[hollow bramble]

||if so its just to summon the elevator back up||

[tight lotus]

yeah I'ma use it then

[hazy yarrow]

how do i make it go down in the first place

[whole owl]

in ||pantheon 5|| are there any differences to the bosses other than the asc arenas

[acoustic sigil]

No

Maybe

Some

[whole owl]

fair, is there any other of the bosses?

mainly asking about ||markoth||

[ebon copper]

its only the arena for him

[whole owl]

thank god

[ebon copper]

its kinda bad

[upbeat ocean]

||markoths|| arena has no floor and you take damage if you fall

[whole owl]

ik but i just like that theres no bonus health or something like that

[ebon copper]

all bosses have ||attuned health in p5||

[whole owl]

k thanks

[ebon copper]

no need to worry about that aspect for any

[whole owl]

||markoth|| finna give me mental problems 😭

[upbeat ocean]

I don’t have much advice to give for ||p5|| cause i beat it in 3 tries

And also good luck on ||p5||

[vivid lantern]

I NEED HELP

CAUSE GENUINELY WTF IS THE ||NIGHTMARE KING GRIMM||

I DIED IN UNDER 10 SECONDS

[upbeat ocean]

a hard boss

But the way I beat them was by thinking of it of a dance rather than a fight

[vivid lantern]

Wdym?

[upbeat ocean]

They have very precise movements so study those and learn to dodge them

[lament lake]

he does a thing
you do a thing to avoid it and attack him
and then you just do that every time he appears

[vivid lantern]

Oh ok I see

This is terrifying man 😭

Like when that screen pops up

[upbeat ocean]

And also the charms I used were ||strength|| (doesn’t matter if it’s ||unbreakable||) ||sharp shadow|| the child and ||mark of pride||

[vivid lantern]

Completely black with red text ||»NIGHTMARE KING GRIMM»||

I knew I was cooked

[upbeat ocean]

insert jojo menacing text

[vivid lantern]

Oh I see I was using ||unbstrength qs narts steady body and grubsong||

I have one ||charm notch|| left should I use ||grubsong||?

[upbeat ocean]

That seems like a good choice to me

[vagrant furnace]

use ||strength, shamans steady body and quick slash||

focus on dodging and only attacking when you can

[vivid lantern]

Would ||unbheart|| be a good choice?

I won’t have time to heal anyways

[shut sparrow]

no

[vivid lantern]

I don’t have enough for that tho because of ||grimmchild||

[ebon copper]

its decent if you are having trouble staying alive

[ebon copper]

my very genuine guide vid for ||nkg|| (sarcastic...)

[shut sparrow]

||Nkg is one of the best bosses to heal on and many people make the mistake of not healing at all or healing very rarely. You absolutely should heal on the fight. In fact it's possible to heal if ever single attack||

[vivid lantern]

I don’t have any time at all wth

[shut sparrow]

doesn't this spoil ||godhome?||

[ebon copper]

not really

[hollow bramble]

||upswing the downward arrow in the elevator||

[vivid lantern]

How are you so good 😭😭😭

[ebon copper]

it could easily be modded, and i gave absolutely 0 context

[shut sparrow]

At the beginning it might seem like it but you can easily heal on ||bats, firepillars and staggers||

[shut sparrow]

that doesn't matter. If it shows vanilla content they haven't reached it's considered a spoiler

[vivid lantern]

But wait what ||charm build|| should i have

[ebon copper]

welp, ig you are probably right

ma try be more careful

[upbeat ocean]

you should definitely have ||grimmchild||

[vivid lantern]

Yeah I can’t enter the fight without it

Kinda annoying

But hold on rn I have ||unbstrength, shaman stone, narts and grubsong||

Should i switch something up?

[ebon copper]

this seems good

you do need ||grimmchild|| to fight ||grimm and nkg|| tho

[shut sparrow]

using ||strength and nmg doesn't really make sense||

rest is good tho

[vivid lantern]

True

Should I use ||longnail or mark of pride?||

[shut sparrow]

no

||range charms|| are usually not good

[vivid lantern]

||qs||?

I have 3 ||notches|| left btw

[shut sparrow]

if you are using ||normal attacks then either quick slash or quick focus. You can also go for more soul with catcher or twister||

[ebon copper]

in ||nkg|| specifically,|| qs ||is harder to take much advantage of

[vivid lantern]

Yeah true

I think ima try a ||spell|| build and then something with ||narts||

[ebon copper]

sounds good

[vivid lantern]

Just gonna see what works

Anyways I gotta head off now

Thanks for the help tho

[shut sparrow]

make sure to remember healing

[static geode]

Thanks i think that should help
Though i didn't encounter any ||pipe-like areas|| yet

[tight lotus]

I just can't defeat this boss bro 😭

whenever he gets the second shield I can't do a thing

[ebon copper]

you can alwwys come back later if you are feeling underpowered

[tight lotus]

no bro, its just not fair, he keeps damaging me and whenever I manage to hit him he hits me too

[ebon copper]

as i said, the game is very non-linear, most of the time if you are struggling and arent feeling progress, you can just get more progress elsewhere nd come back to whatever you were previously struggling with

[tight lotus]

but bro I see people beating it with worse stats

[ebon copper]

ofc, you can also beat the games very last boss with what you have now, but that means absolutely nothing, everyone has a different amount of experience in this style of gaming, some ppl have multiple metroids on their steam profile with 1k+ hrs

[tight lotus]

they seem unhittable

[ebon copper]

that said ,the most effective starts against ||markoth|| are mostly using ||nail arts||

[tight lotus]

I suck with them

[ebon copper]

and they spam ||spells when he goes into the pahe when he spinst the shields around himself||

you can also ||pogo him somewhat consistently, but its quite unintuitive due to the shields hitbox being kinda weird||

[tight lotus]

tried that already

[lethal flame]

simply don't follow him

stay on the ground at all times and dodging his attacks suddenly becomes a lot easier

||markoth|| with ground is a very easy fight compared to without

[tight lotus]

I'm not having problems with dodging

I'm having problems with the second shield

[lethal flame]

if you're taking damage you're having problems with dodging

his 2nd shield shouldn't present too many issues if u just don't follow him on the platforms and stay grounded

[dawn grove]

||save up soul during the 1st phase, when he enters the 2nd phase with 2 shields spam him with your ranged spell from afar||

[tight lotus]

will it be enough

to kill him

[tame trout]

u can still damage him w ur nail

[tight lotus]

YE AND HE WILL KILL ME

[tame trout]

GIT GUD

u can come back later for him

[tight lotus]

no

just tell me other way to get orbs

the dream thingy

[brisk sedge]

Guys

How do I get the ||mask shard|| from the ||Howling cliffs||

[winter lynx]

you mean ||soul vessel?||

There's no ||mask shard in howling cliffs.||

[winter lynx]

||Make sure to incorporate shape of unn into ur build

Lets you heal during the floor spikes and fire pillars.||

this does seem like a softlock but u had to have done some non-trivial skips to be to here with the loadout that u got so im assuming that u played out this save file with the intention of being softlocked since this is not smth u would stumble upon on accident

[untold geyser]

i tried to go into || hidden station || but i forgot i cant get back up and i need || claw for hidden station ||

tried to bench for the || shade skip ||

[stoic cedar]

yea i dont think u can get out of there without ||claw||

[untold geyser]

ye, but thanks anyways || ( i spent an hour just for that skip im so mad) ||

[lilac parcel]

i quit and went back to normal

[bright sorrel]

nah u can 😛

they specifically prolly cant bc its too hard

[stoic cedar]

||huh interesting, is it somehow possible to get to hidden station with only fireball? theres like a stallball but i didnt think that gave enough height.||

[solid heart]

No, ||stallball does not give enough height||

And I'm sure the one for ||wings requires shaman||

Oh yeah, ||and dash||

[untold geyser]

wdym?

||stall ball no claw ||

yea || stall ball || gets you out of the || wings || requirement

you need || wings || normally to get to || hidden station ||

[somber hill]

[sacred horizon]

am i supposed to || free all these spirits from this graveyard||

[stoic cedar]

||r u talking about spirits glade? If so, u could dream nail all of the spirits but it barely gives any essence. its up to u what to do, it doesn’t affect anything else in the game||

[sacred horizon]

so it's 100% optional ?

[stoic cedar]

Yes

[smoky lantern]

And I say no to do it

But people have different opinions

[sacred horizon]

aren't you ||freeing them, in a way?||

[somber hill]

Yea

[smoky lantern]

I guess

But also ||Revek||

[sacred horizon]

what about ||revek||

[smoky lantern]

He scary

He’ll snipe you from across the screen

[sacred horizon]

I suppose I'll learn more abt the lore before making any decision there

[unreal oriole]

Yo guys

[carmine nimbus]

???

come on

whats the best thing to buy from ||sly||
||mask shard, vessel fragment, simple key or rancid egg||

[spice nebula]

Hi, can anyone help me with ||hornet in kingdom’s edge?|| I have ||8 notches|| which ||charms|| should I use?

[stoic cedar]

Depends which ones u have

[smoky lantern]

unequip ||glowing womb||

[stoic cedar]

||okay this build looks pretty good except for glowing womb, which is probably a top 5 (definitely top 10) worst charm in the game. I would suggest replacing glowing womb with smth like long nail, soul catcher, or steady body + another one notch charm||

||u can also try replacing grubsong + glowing womb with mark of pride, or replacing it with steady body + one of the two notch charms I mentioned above||

[smoky lantern]

||yes. It seems like a spell build, so possibly equip soul catcher||

[spice nebula]

Ok thanks!

[stoic cedar]

||simple key is good for progress since it can unlock a couple of things throughout the map, although u should check other shops to see if there’s other stuff there that u can buy as well||

[smoky lantern]

Also depends how many ||simple keys|| you already have

[shadow vessel]

depends on how much you have of each

|| i'd say rancid egg is the worst ||

[unreal cloak]

||replace glowing with longnail||

[keen stream]

i'd usually get to this point before dying, i think need the blind ||radiance|| again

@drowsy yarrow

[remote jacinth]

Why would you ask for help with this specific boss in hk help lmao

[stoic cedar]

||that first two phases (before sword rain) is a bit too aggressive to my liking, u jump up at times where u probably shouldve stayed low, and chased after absrad when u shouldve been more cognizant of the spiked floor. also u should shriek once or twice in sword rain to make it go by faster||

[keen stream]

its just ||absrad|| tho

[remote jacinth]

||ab||

[keen stream]

yeh

[stoic cedar]

||oh nvm u do shriek during sword rain, disregard that||

[remote jacinth]

Regardless why not just ask in hk discussion

Or do they look down on it

[keen stream]

i need help tho, and its hk help here

[remote jacinth]

Oh I recognize your name

[keen stream]

free nitro is gone

[remote jacinth]

Hop on complex numbers instead

[slender badge]

So

Here are some tips

According to me I would focus on getting chip damage

I’d focus on always moving and dashing would be useful

Js

[keen stream]

||spells||, specifically ||dive and fireball|| would be the most useful in that fight if you wanna play it safe

[livid shoal]

Wouldn't ||dashing|| be a spoiler?

[slender badge]

Well

[tranquil oriole]

😭

[keen stream]

bot got caught slacking

[slender badge]

Shoot

Nvm

[livid shoal]

Who cares, what if someone who hasn't gotten ||Dash|| yet wanders in here

[slender badge]

Oh yeah maybe

[solid heart]

Some things to note:
||Don't be afraid of ddark, at 0:40 it would have helped you avoid that hit and continue hitting AbsRad after, and in plats it would have avoided the hit that kill you, during plats orbs you would have got more damage, and the beam burst you could have avoided the weird situation of dashing away from the attack.
Especially in that plats circumstance because you can get your 3 hits right again

Also for sword rain, learn how to squeeze between swords, it's not hard, and it avoids the awkward waking away and messing up your distance, while keeping your damage flow (and don't shriek more than twice as soon as possible so you can heal)||

[keen stream]

wth

[slender badge]

It doesn’t warn me

[tranquil oriole]

genio you look simply dashing today

[slender badge]

Oh yes sorry

[solid heart]

Your Halloween costume is super dashing too

[jade sedge]

The list only has ||dash, not dashing||. It still is a spoiler.

[sly rune]

The bot probably thinks you're complimenting someone.

[slender badge]

It’s Halloween?

I was planning on making a hi costume :((

Looks like I ran out of time …

[keen stream]

aight, i'll use blind ||radiance|| again ig, i cant see them swords clearly

[jade sedge]

Meaning you need to spoiler tag or delete the messages

[slender badge]

Oops

I’m sorry

[solid heart]

Really? ||Swords are your problem with sight? I thought beams and orbs||

[keen stream]

ohh, i thought the bot was slacking

[slender badge]

I just have a skill issue

[keen stream]

its jus way up in the screen, i can recognize the beams a lot better now

[slender badge]

But also

[solid heart]

I've been sending a lot of dms to Kark for missing stuff

[jade sedge]

Its fine, just edit or delete the messages

[solid heart]

But I haven't seen him online in a while

[slender badge]

Anyone have any tips for beating ||NKG? Also where do I find him I just beat the Troupe maste Grimm ||

[keen stream]

i also think my way of dodging orbs is too risky

[tranquil oriole]

three more 🔥s

[jade sedge]

No messages here for a month on their main account..

[slender badge]

Oh yesses

But where do I find him

[tranquil oriole]

same place

[slender badge]

In the same place?

Ah

Ok

Thank you!

[solid heart]

That explains it then, he's gone, for now at least

[stoic cedar]

||honestly just get to nkg and try it out before even asking for tips so that u have an idea what u would struggle on||

[slender badge]

Also, what is the reward for beating him?

[jade sedge]

Please edit these and add spoiler tags or delete it

[tranquil oriole]

my b

[tranquil oriole]

||charm upgrade||

it’s been getting stronger, but you got one more

[slender badge]

Hmm

Wdym ||charm ||up

Do you mean like a ||notch||

[tranquil oriole]

fuck right off

typo on the spoiler brackets is insane

[solid heart]

For the first thing tho, can't really give tips for a boss you haven't even seen lol

[solid heart]

Fr

[slender badge]

I’ll come back here

Later

Anyways I’m going to over omr my skill issue

And beat him by myself

[tranquil oriole]

you don’t really fight ||nkg|| for the teward

you do it bc it’s fun

[slender badge]

G is super fun

Actually

[solid heart]

||Just like R5||

[keen stream]

||nkg|| is exactly like ||grimm|| fight, but a bit faser and lot more jumps and 2 new attacks

[solid heart]

Just like bingy

[tranquil oriole]

bingy!

bingy is not a spoiler

[keen stream]

wtf is bingy

[solid heart]

Fuck, my game experience is ruined

I didn't know bingy was a thing

[stoic cedar]

bingo

[tranquil oriole]

the ultimate form of postgame hk content

[solid heart]

No, that's ||r045||

[tranquil oriole]

r045 is not a spoiler

[keen stream]

my brain cant process it

[inner robin]

What does the four represent

[tranquil oriole]

it’s a fucking menu order

[inner robin]

Is that just ||ab||

[tranquil oriole]

a bit more

[inner robin]

Ok well

||pantheon 5 ab white spells nail 0 radiant||

?

[tranquil oriole]

wow

second try

that’s insane

i’m genuinely impressed

[inner robin]

Well I was asking which thing the four meant

[tranquil oriole]

it’s the ||bindings||

ohhh

i’m a dumbass

[solid heart]

||I'll have a R5ABN0WS with a side of R112APB please||

[keen stream]

is that a fckn nuclear code

[inner robin]

Hollow knight acronyms are very stupid actually what if we just don’t

[solid heart]

I kinda want to make a document for the acronyms, including everything, like ||ss||

[tranquil oriole]

we should

[inner robin]

I support this

[jade sedge]

Uhh spoiler tags..?

[keen stream]

R5BBNO$XYZ ass acronyms

[solid heart]

||And -12CrocRABHoG for desert please||

[remote jacinth]

Wrong timing then

[keen stream]

100%

[tranquil oriole]

A$AP Rocky

[keen stream]

croc

wtf does that even mean

[solid heart]

I actually don't remember what croc meant lol

[regal jay]

eh, i can't use it before the ||spike|| appears or what?

[keen stream]

there's no crocodile in hollow knight

[tranquil oriole]

levir

🐊

[inner robin]

You’re technically right but I think that’s just a bunch of random letters and numbers even to a lot of people who do know that those things are

[tranquil oriole]

true

[keen stream]

100% agree

it looks like some sort of safe code or smth

[jade sedge]

Im not going to continue this, but i'd have tagged it

[keen stream]

"we cracked the code" ahh acronym

[tranquil oriole]

like teblss is a two-in-one spoiler for those who know what it stands for but otherwise it sounds like the name of a mascot for the newest kids cereal

[solid heart]

Yeah, probably should.
It's just at that point what can you even extrapolate from that?

There, done :D

[jade sedge]

Not much and thats why i wont continue reminding people of it in this convo. Its just principle and example at this point

[warm thunder]

||carefree melody or grimmchild?||

[keen stream]

i somehow became more ass when i used blind ||radiance||

[solid heart]

No, it's just a challenge criteria with absolute no relation to the name. I just don't remember what it was

[tranquil oriole]

dogshit or dogshit

[keen stream]

||melody||, gambling 🔛 🔝

[inner robin]

Yep,,.

[stoic cedar]

||i think croco is just nail0 with all movement abilities||

[keen stream]

how dare you say that

[jade sedge]

||Melody is less bad||

[warm thunder]

so basically whichever one i wanna do?

[solid heart]

That's kinda low tho, ||N0 already exists, I'm sure it had something else||

[keen stream]

||melody|| is 10x better than ||grimmothy||

[tranquil oriole]

is it tho

[solid heart]

10⁰x better

[keen stream]

yeh

you have a chance of survival

it helped me on my first ||p5|| win

[warm thunder]

if i do get ||melody, will i still be able to fight nkg in godhome?||

[tranquil oriole]

one of them is ||absrad speed kill meta|| and the other is ||anyrad oc meta||

[acoustic sigil]

10 x 0 = 0

[keen stream]

still has 10 innit

wait a min...

[keen stream]

isnt it 1?

[warm thunder]

so basically it comes down to if i ||wanna banish the troupe for a charm that somewhat has a niche or if i want to fight cool red grimm||

[solid heart]

Yeah, what's 1 times something?

[tranquil oriole]

something

for sure

[keen stream]

its still something tho

[tranquil oriole]

after everything, it’s still you

[keen stream]

||melody vs grimmchild|| is like dogshit vs horseshit

[warm thunder]

so which is better

[analog peak]

both useless

[solid heart]

||Melody, but just slightly||

[tranquil oriole]

one of them won’t get you killed

[acoustic sigil]

||Melody, but the difference isn't worth it to choose the ending on||

[solid heart]

||Grimmchild is like Dreamshield and Melody is like lifeblood heart||

[stoic cedar]

||i dont exactly remember, there is crono which is charmless radiant old nail only, croco couldve came from that, iirc ppl started calling it croco for the funnies||

[inner robin]

Yes they are both bad so I usually recommend ||killing nkg for first playthroughs- also it keeps divine around for the unbreakable charms||

[solid heart]

||I know charmless nail 0 white spells is 0w0||

But maybe croco was no ||spells|| too

[inner robin]

Of course it is

[keen stream]

i used ||melody|| on my first ||rad absrad||... i didnt get hit so it was basically a waste of space

[solid heart]

My thoughts exactly

[warm thunder]

aight im just gonna ||enjoy the nkg experience||

[keen stream]

0w0 looks like an emoji

[solid heart]

||It had a 0% chance of triggering ||

[solid heart]

That's the point... uwu speech

[keen stream]

boost of conifedence tho

[stoic cedar]

yea, let me search "||crono||" and "||croco||" on this server and see if anything pops up, im pretty sure they are the same thing but not 100% sure

[keen stream]

a tad bit higher chance of survival

[mortal vine]

I just got ||grimmchild|| cause ||nkg|| is my fav fight

[warm thunder]

ill probably do the same, ||im looking forward to a tougher grimm fight||

[stoic cedar]

well i didnt have to search for long, found this ig 🤷‍♂️

[keen stream]

demn

sounds hard af

[solid heart]

When you put it on it immediately defaults to|| 0%, and after each hit it increases by 10.1%, for a max of 90.9% and returning to 0 after a bit. But this chance lingers through anything as long as you don't remove the charm, so you can technically try to get 90.9% and then enter a radiant fight... That's what debug carefree mod is||

[mortal vine]

I read old lady not ||old nail||

that must be a hard fight

[keen stream]

croc sounds silly, crono sounds like a time god or something

[solid heart]

Hmmm, so ||charmless, radiant, nail 0 only...
It's alright except for the radiant|| part

[solid heart]

Kronos is the Greek God of time

[keen stream]

so... is ||P5cronoAB|| even doable?

[solid heart]

Yes

[keen stream]

demnn

[solid heart]

Not done yet tho

[stoic cedar]

i mean teano has ||ip5ab|| so thats definitely doable

[solid heart]

It's still harder than ||r045||

It's that minus the ||spells||

[stoic cedar]

its just the ||radiant|| part that will be really rough

[tranquil oriole]

and ||r045|| only has one clear so far afaik

[keen stream]

ip...
wtf is that

[solid heart]

Also, let's call it ||🐊45||

[tranquil oriole]

funny that this conversation is happening in hkhelp

[keen stream]

silly acronym

[solid heart]

||Itemless, only the gear you get in King's Pass as you spawn||

So focus and ||nail 0||

That's it

[keen stream]

45 crocodiles

[stoic cedar]

||not sure how feasible croco traitor lord and croco absrad will be tho||

[solid heart]

||With dash and wings it's not an issue||

[stoic cedar]

ah yea forgot

[keen stream]

i think ||croco traitor|| lord is still doable, but what about ||croco absrad||

[stoic cedar]

i forgot there was actual movement abilities 🤣

well everything should be doable in that case

just like

super duper hard

[keen stream]

is it the ||shadow dash in croco or normal dash||

[solid heart]

||The only insane threats here are Flukemarm, Collector, Markoth, GPZ and AbsRad|| anything else is perfectly manageable for someone like Teano

[tranquil oriole]

what is 🐊 i think i missed that

[keen stream]

its this

[solid heart]

||Radiant, nail 0, spelless, charmless||

[keen stream]

silly croc

[tranquil oriole]

ohhhh i’ve done a few of those

[solid heart]

You should do 🐊bingy

[tranquil oriole]

how would that work

[keen stream]

i still dont know whats bingy or bingo

[split peak]

anyone able to help me get the little grim skin

[stoic cedar]

wait but what if one of the goals is retrieving a ||spell|| or smth, wouldnt that invalidate the premise

[keen stream]

this the only bingo i know

[solid heart]

||don't upgrade your nail, don't equip charms, don't use spells, 1 hp, remove all goals that require charms or spells||

[tranquil oriole]

spoiling that is hilarious

[keen stream]

get the custom knight mod, also ask mod stuff in #modding-discussion

[split peak]

alr but i have the mod

the file

thoe

[keen stream]

ohh

wait a min

[solid heart]

Imagine that, but instead of numbers it's HK quests

[stoic cedar]

go to #modding-discussion or #1057825333841240104 if u have any trouble using the mod

[keen stream]

ahh, i get it now

[tranquil oriole]

randomly generated from like 130 goals or smth

competitive 1v1 in this case, but it can be played lots of ways

[solid heart]

Where slug at the top of the world

[stoic cedar]

i would honestly suck at bingo so bad, bad at both routing and speedrunning 💀

[tranquil oriole]

bingy would love to have you i’m sure

i sucked when i joined

[keen stream]

idek if i can compete in that

[tranquil oriole]

averaged like a 1h30m three line

now i’m pushing sub hour

[solid heart]

Now you're choom

The best bingy otter

[stoic cedar]

i would be spending like 10 minutes just thinking about which 3 lines to do while following any% cuz i would so lost on what to do 💀

[tranquil oriole]

idk if ccmaci will let you say that

[solid heart]

When I read bingy, I immediately think of choom

[tranquil oriole]

aww

[solid heart]

Ccmaci is a good bingy player?

Yep

[tranquil oriole]

idk how good he is

but he has bingied

[unreal oriole]

ok thanks for info

[solid heart]

You should challenge him to a bingy race

[stoic cedar]

hello all images need to be spoilered in this channel, please delete and resend this image as a spoilered image, thanks

[solid heart]

The winner is the better otter

[tranquil oriole]

get me in a lobby with cc 🙏

[solid heart]

Wait, that's not spoilered, we just found a loophole

[tranquil oriole]

and i don’t mean constructive cynicism

[solid heart]

You obviously mean carbon copy

Or cubic centimeters

[solid heart]

Well, I'm gonna be an ||R5|| victor soon... Just sayin (that won't change shit)

[stoic cedar]

yea ive noticed it for a while now since ppl do send forwarded msgs here from time to time, not sure if the bot could be updated to detect forward msgs as well

[keen stream]

isnt cc crowd control

[solid heart]

I could speak to Kark, if he wasn't away

[tranquil oriole]

i know you can cc people on emails

[solid heart]

Con copia

Wait a minute

[tranquil oriole]

con copium

[solid heart]

Copium!!

silksong

[tranquil oriole]

i know con that’s with

con passione

[unreal oriole]

sorry i forwarded it so it did not get spioled

[wary gust]

How this guy feels after still not deleting it

[solid heart]

I just looked cco up, it means con copia oculta apparently
Why tf is it in Spanish

[unreal oriole]

i did it dude i saw the message just now

[keen stream]

con... concussion

[solid heart]

WHY

I can't find anything

Hidden Carbon Copy is not CCO at all

Google is useless

AI says Con copia oculta because I have Spanish websites there

I'm gonna crash out

[tranquil oriole]

crash out!!!

[solid heart]

Carbon crash out

[tranquil oriole]

||r5|| reference

[solid heart]

Dyrati! You studied this

What the fuck does cco mean

In English

[solid heart]

Fr lmao

[drowsy yarrow]

I haven't heard of cco

[solid heart]

Not that meaning

[keen stream]

cco

[solid heart]

In email

CC is Carbon copy

CCO is... Hidden carbon copy

[keen stream]

mine says blind carbon copy

not even cco

ohh

cco and bcc is same thing

[solid heart]

Yeah they are, but why cco

[keen stream]

idk

[solid heart]

I'm going insane

[keen stream]

cause its cooler than bcc

[solid heart]

I'm just gonna go sleep

And this will all be a fever dream

[tranquil oriole]

one day genio will wake up and realize that bingy

[solid heart]

Bingy what

Just bingy?

[solid heart]

One day I'll wake up and ||R5|| will just be a memory

[unreal oriole]

guys i got into|| crystal peak ||

[keen stream]

awesome

[thick wing]

Top 10 things to do in ||crystal peaks|| -

1. Leave

[keen stream]

100% disagree

[solid heart]

one day choom will wake up and realize that ||r5||

[thick wing]

Nah just kidding that area ain't hard, just annoying at times

[tranquil oriole]

choom tried for a little bit

[drowsy yarrow]

I've been trying ||R5|| for hours ;~;

[spice nebula]

If you see a || crystal hunter || run

[keen stream]

i somehow got worse in ||absrad ab|| with blind ||radiance|| on

[thick wing]

Just asking, what is ||r5||?

[tranquil oriole]

blind isn’t really that big a diff icl

[unreal oriole]

why

[solid heart]

||hitless P5||

[inner robin]

The really aren’t that bad

[thick wing]

Oh

[solid heart]

||R5 moment, still no lower than 8?||

[drowsy yarrow]

||Oh yeah, I watched the video and the others recommended basically the same things I would have. The only thing I would add is to heal when you get the chance. There's a lot of chances. Also with the beam burst, think of it as spawning in one of three places, but the next place it spawns cannot be at the previous spot.||

[keen stream]

for me it is ig

its kinda hard for me to see the color difference between yellow and white

[tranquil oriole]

it helps for modded

[drowsy yarrow]

No, although I got several 7-hit runs to ||absrad||

[tranquil oriole]

fair enough

i got an 11 hit once

[thick wing]

The legends say, it's equivalent to Blight town

[solid heart]

||I've got 2 1-hits and like 3 2-hits to AbsRad|| and choked super badly :33333333

[inner robin]

||R5 looks fun but unfortunately I suck and could never do it||

[drowsy yarrow]

I had a 1-hit run up to the ||p4|| segment

my 1 hit was from ||god tamer||

[keen stream]

my brain stopped working, i cant do ||absrad|| 1st phase now

[tranquil oriole]

it’s not fun

[solid heart]

It is

[thick wing]

Exactly my thoughts. You could do it hitless if you want but it will get hard the more you try it

[solid heart]

I love running ||R5|| as much a Choom loves playing bingy

[stoic cedar]

||i had fun doing r1-r4 but r5 seems like way too much of a grind for it to be really fun for me lol||

[inner robin]

I think if I was at the correct skill level I would enjoy it because I like doing the same thing over and over again (when it comes to hk at least)

[tranquil oriole]

exact same as my experience

[unreal oriole]

what is blight town

[keen stream]

i cant even do ||r1||

[drowsy yarrow]

What helps me when I'm getting hit a lot is to try to slow down. Usually it's because I start to get impatient. I imagine I'm demonstrating for a new player and want to make it look easy in the video.

[solid heart]

Hard is an understatement, ||R5|| is like insanely hard to picture the actual difficulty.
It's probably as much harder than ||P5AB|| than ||P5AB is from P5, or even lower than that||

[keen stream]

but... if i slow down, my brain would do the same thing

[thick wing]

You know about dark souls 1? It's an area everyone hate.

[solid heart]

And if you don't have the mentality, it will break you

But I'm down for it because I love this game so much

And I genuinely find fun doing ||an entire 39 minute bossrush to get hit to Markoth||

[unreal oriole]

no

[thick wing]

If you learn to do first few bosses hitless, it gives you the rhythm of dodging. Thats what my experience says

[drowsy yarrow]

I never thought I'd attempt ||r5|| but this server inspired me

[unreal oriole]

oh so all hate the|| crystal peak ||

[keen stream]

i wont do that ever even if yall inspire me

[solid heart]

Individually, that's why ||RHoG|| is much much easier and fun

As you get to get in tune with each boss

[keen stream]

i think ||abhog|| will be the best i can do

[tranquil oriole]

no movement ||radhog|| is really fun

i recommend

[thick wing]

Not everyone. Areas like ||deepnest|| or ||kingdom's age|| are also hated by many. Don't touch the spoilers because I guess you havent reached there

[inner robin]

I mainly just wanna do ||p5ab (which I would definitely do before r5)|| but unfortunately splatoon hijacked my brain just as I was actually trying to grind it out

[solid heart]

For ||R5|| you gotta be consistent, ready for any bullshit rng throws at you.
You gotta manage resources, your stress and nerves, your stamina. Because 1 mistake and it's all over

[tranquil oriole]

movement abilities* i should say

[stoic cedar]

||ab radhog|| is a fun grind, u should aim for that

[tranquil oriole]

i should do that lowkey

[solid heart]

Omw to do no walking or jumping ||absrad||

[drowsy yarrow]

It helps me soooo much. It's like leaving some spare RAM in your brain in case it encounters something unexpected.

[keen stream]

i'll try

[inner robin]

Imagine being able to use mods to practice

[solid heart]

Yeah, do that, ||P5AB|| is a fun grind

[solid heart]

I did ||P5AB|| without mods

And I gotta say, such an experience

[keen stream]

it helps a lot

[drowsy yarrow]

The catch is that it requires more patience. I noticed that my first few attempts of the day are good and the rest taper off. When I reviewed the footage, I always messed up because I was speeding through the boring sections.

[solid heart]

I even made a new file just to emulate ||bindings to the values and practice Zote||

[inner robin]

I love my Nintendo switch

[solid heart]

Fr, that's why half my runs end before ||Xero||

Half is an understatement

[stoic cedar]

damn i downloaded ||toggleable bindings|| mod and ||godseeker+ mod|| the instant i started grinding for ||p5ab||

[inner robin]

||I recently discovered a file that has almost everything but pure nail and one soul vessel (also dreamers for some reason??) so I’ll probably practice on that.||

[drowsy yarrow]

half of mine end at ||vengefly kings|| haha

[solid heart]

I actually uninstalled the modding API just to do ||P5AB|| lol

[solid heart]

||Pure nail does a lot of damage||, you did this file yourself or what?

||You want to have channeled nail||

[keen stream]

my pinky locked, i cant ||dash||

i think i'll do charmless first

||absrad ab|| is a lil too much

[inner robin]

Apparently?? I’m the only one who uses my switch I’d have no other idea how it got there

[stoic cedar]

lol why, seems like a rather peculiar decision to make

[solid heart]

I know you can modify files on switch, so I can see if I can transform my steam file into a switch file for you

[drowsy yarrow]

I kind of view the difficulty of accessing practice as part of the challenge for myself, like how you have to reach ||absrad|| before you can practice ||absrad||

[solid heart]

I just wanted the vanila experience, idk

That's also why it took me 4 months lmfao

[inner robin]

I recently did ||the pantheons on it and it wasn’t that hard tbh- fights just took longer. (I wasn’t doing bindings or anything it was just old nail)||

[drowsy yarrow]

I still haven't used mods yet

[solid heart]

Old or pure?!

[solid heart]

||R5 you 100% need mods||

[keen stream]

me with shitloads of mods

[solid heart]

Not using them is just demented, even for me

[drowsy yarrow]

maybe I'll be the first hehe
but yeah I'm considering it

[solid heart]

||Godseeker+ is just so overpowered for practice it's not even funny||

[inner robin]

What do you even use mods for ||r5||

[unreal oriole]

what are those ||diamond mites shooting laser|| , can't i kill emm

[solid heart]

||Godseeker+ has a ton of tools to help on practice||

[drowsy yarrow]

I've only ever fought ||absrad ab|| 4 times because of lack of mods

[median hornet]

how to get out

[solid heart]

There are people who have done it on Xbox, which is complete insanity

[median hornet]

also
can't reach ||mantis village||
suppose I should come back later?

[keen stream]

i am now 100% sure the ||ab|| is just overwhelming me

[inner robin]

||what does nail binding set your nail damage to if you have pure nail again I forgot||

[solid heart]

||13, which is the exact same as channeled nail||

[stoic cedar]

u definitely can get to ||mantis village|| if u have ||dash||

[median hornet]

i keep falling in the ||acid||

[drowsy yarrow]

Maybe just try it ||charmless||? That's how I practiced.

[keen stream]

13 dmg

[keen stream]

im doin it rn

[unreal oriole]

?

[inner robin]

Ok I see why you said I should get that then instead of ||old nail||

[keen stream]

instantly did the 1st phase hitless

[drowsy yarrow]

nice!

[median hornet]

nevermind

[stoic cedar]

||that probably means u r jumping from the lower floor instead of the elevated floor to the right||

[median hornet]

yeah

that was it

[solid heart]

Alright, I'm gonna sleep

I was supposed to an hour ago

[inner robin]

Gn!

[solid heart]

[drowsy yarrow]

gn genio!

[stoic cedar]

||i mean ab is just a lot harder than charmless in general||

[inner robin]

||I have no idea how to simulate the soul binding other than just… only use spells every three hits or something Idk.||

[unreal oriole]

what are those ||diamond mites shooting laser|| , can't i kill emm

[stoic cedar]

||try using spells||

[keen stream]

bruh

[stoic cedar]

yea that is smth ull have to keep track in ur head

[inner robin]

Man

[drowsy yarrow]

||Crystal Crawlers can only be destroyed with spells afaik||

[inner robin]

||dcrest might be able to but I don’t think that’s relevant||

[stoic cedar]

||i think defenders crest and spore shroom can also kill them but yea spells are the main way to kill them||

[drowsy yarrow]

makes sense

[stoic cedar]

||maybe summoner charms as well||

[keen stream]

have yall tried ||sporeshroom|| kill on ||absrad||

[stoic cedar]

nope that just sounds terrible

if u r talking about ||sporeshroom damage as the only damage source||

not even sure if u can deal the last hit with ||spore shroom|| actually

[drowsy yarrow]

I guess in order to get soul you could use ||kingsoul|| and ||spore shroom||

[keen stream]

yeh, only using the nail to trigger her death

[stoic cedar]

||other method is gsong + deep focus + elegy and dunk into the void for infinite healing||

[inner robin]

||yeah I think that’s locked to only triggering the cutscene with nail hit||

[keen stream]

wait, i was thinking bout ||defender crest|| not ||spore||

[drowsy yarrow]

There was a video I saw of a guy trying to get ||112 and beat p5 with the minimum number of nail hits.||

[stoic cedar]

oh

that sounds much more manageable

[stoic cedar]

what was the final count?

[keen stream]

im losing my mind

its been 2 hrs now

fighting the same boss

[drowsy yarrow]

54. I think each ||dreamer|| needed 10, and there were a few other things, but they did practically a perfect job of minimizing it

||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUXIzpComIo||

[keen stream]

fuck this, my brain hurts

[drowsy yarrow]

you've done amazing work, take a break ^^

[keen stream]

i got to last phase tho
thats alr a good progress for today

[stoic cedar]

||bro really did godhome ending instead of thk to avoid the dreamers and save nail slashes lmfaooo||

[drowsy yarrow]

ohhh right

yeah he was committed

[keen stream]

insane shit

literally ||sharp shadow|| only run

[unreal oriole]

yo if i hit the ||crystal guardian|| what will happen

@keen stream DO YOU KNOW WHAT will happen

[keen stream]

a boss fight

its not that hard tbh

[unreal oriole]

but what is|| enraged guardian||

[unreal oriole]

???

what is it

like i saw in wiki there is ||crystal guardian and then enraged gaurdian ||

[keen stream]

if you beat ||crystal guardian||, you'll see him climb up into the ceiling

and on the right of the boss room, you'll see a way up

its just ||crystal guardian|| but angry

[unreal oriole]

so i will have to fight his again ?

i am searching for the|| crystal heart ||

i will fight him

i need the bench maybe

[keen stream]

its just on the right side of that region
