[stoic cedar]

||theres a few options u can go with. along with grimmchild, u can go for strength and shaman stone. if u dont use spells often, u can replace shaman stone with mark of pride, or long nail + grubsong. u can also try strength + quick slash if u want to sneak in an extra hit or two after each of his attacks.||

[bold mist]

||ik one is getting a dreamer, but what's the other one?||

[bold mist]

Thank you

[stoic cedar]

||obtaining the monarch wings||

[bold mist]

So defeating the ||broken vessel?||

[stoic cedar]

[bold mist]

i cant do ||path of pain|| because of it

[shrewd basin]

What's the best charm set for ||watcher knights on radiant||

[shrewd basin]

Relatable I died at the last bit cuz of lag

[twilit cypress]

i cant even get past the first || sawblade|| cuz of it

[shrewd basin]

Oh God that's bad

[acoustic sigil]

Is that a hk problem?

Or a console problem

[twilit cypress]

idk but are there optimization mods for hk or smt

[acoustic sigil]

?tag lag

[languid radish]

Mods to help reduce lag

• No Particles | Install
• AlreadyEnoughPlayMaker | Install
• NoBlur | Install
• ShyKnight | Install (Removes the audience from Godhome arenas and Colosseum of Fools)
• Remove Laggy Objects | Install

[acoustic sigil]

But idk if they will fix input lag

[twilit cypress]

il try them

act it might be my keyboard

also whats v sync?

[acoustic sigil]

It limits your fps to 60 to prevent tearing, but you do get some input lag for it in return

So if you turn it off and don't get tearing

Keep it off

[twilit cypress]

what do you mean by tearing?

[acoustic sigil]

Screen tearing

Wait I'll get a pic

[twilit cypress]

oh

oh wait

think i found the problem

i had fram cap on before

but i disabled later

it might be why

[brisk sedge]

[shrewd basin]

||crystal peak just below cdash||

[brisk sedge]

Can you mark it?

[boreal tartan]

||how to kill this monkey bug||

[shrewd basin]

Whack it

It has a lot of health just hit it until it dead

[twilit cypress]

you need to be a monkey to kill a monkey

[shrewd basin]

And you need to have ||wayward compass|| it makes it so much easier

[boreal tartan]

sir, what the fuck

[brisk sedge]

Thanks

[brisk sedge]

Thanks

[shrewd basin]

||wayward compass|| makes the game 10x easier

[quiet yew]

||how i can fight radiance?||

[shrewd basin]

You will need to obtain the ||awakened dream Nail go to white palace get white fragment beat traitor lord get the King soul go to the abyss with King soul on and collect the void heart head back to black egg you fight the hollow knight then radiance||

[quiet yew]

||i have all of this but i can use the dream nail on hollow knight||

[shrewd basin]

You have ||void heart||

[quiet yew]

||is the dark dash and the another void skills?||

[shrewd basin]

No it's an ||unequippable charm||

Let me ask you another question is ||hornet outside the egg||

[quiet yew]

i alredy beat hollow knight so idk

i will see

[vale tulip]

how do i beat ||sly||

hes gonna make me end myself

[shrewd basin]

That's a bit dramatic how far are you getting in the fight

[vale tulip]

second phase

[twilit cypress]

how many attempts did u do?

[shrewd basin]

What's your build

You can practice him in the ||hall of God's||

[vale tulip]

not that much on him but the amount ive done in ||p3|| makes me want to blow my brains out

[vale tulip]

thats what im doing rn i can only get to his second phase

when i beat ||p3|| im gonna get a shotgun just incase for ||p4||

[shrewd basin]

I would recommend only going for about 2 or 3 hits then ||dash|| away and go back in after he attacks

[vale tulip]

his ||dash slash|| is so hard to react to

[dawn grove]

Wait for it to charge up and then jump over it

[quiet yew]

im on|| abbys|| but whre is the charm?

[shrewd basin]

Do you have the ||king soul|| on

[dawn grove]

||Void heart? You need to get something called a white fragment, 2 of those||

[shrewd basin]

||The floor will fall away if you have it on||

[quiet yew]

i got

[vale tulip]

HOLY SHIT I BEAT HIM WHAT

[dawn grove]

||Kingsoul needs to be equipped||

[vale tulip]

IM TOO DUCKING GOOD

[dawn grove]

niceee

[vale tulip]

5 TRIES

but i was on 1 life

[shrewd basin]

You need to wear it

[tulip sky]

hey guys

[vale tulip]

and im not gonna be on 10 lives when im on ||p3||

[tulip sky]

grr no spoiler tags

[quiet yew]

it was equiped when i tried to call|| radiance||

[dawn grove]

At the bottom of the ||abyss you will find a chunk of the floor shaking when you walk over it with kingsoul equipped||

[shrewd basin]

You need to wear the charm and go down to the ||abyss||

[quiet yew]

ok

[dawn grove]

Practise him and learn his patterns. Is there a specific attack troubling you?

[tulip sky]

you need to get the ||void heart wich you can get in the abyss||

[quiet yew]

ok

thanks

[tulip sky]

at the bottom the floor will open and you need to ||dream nail yor reflection||

[shrewd basin]

Genuinely how do you fight ||watchers||

[tulip sky]

dont die

but seriously get ||desolative dive and spam the shit out of it||

[shrewd basin]

I have ||descending dark||

[tulip sky]

oh right i wanted to say that lol

but yeah just spam ||ddark||

[shrewd basin]

That would require me to get soul

[tulip sky]

then uh

attack them??

[shrewd basin]

And not get hit a single time

[tulip sky]

also dude you have ||112% and p5 you should know how to fight the watcher knights||

[tulip sky]

you can get hit

[shrewd basin]

No you can't

[tulip sky]

its just heal when you kill one and another starts spawning

[shrewd basin]

It ends the fight

[tulip sky]

oh wait are you doing ||radiant||

[shrewd basin]

Yes

[tulip sky]

oh 💀

well its still not hard just farm soul on the first one

[shrewd basin]

I die after 3

[tulip sky]

then dont

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[shrewd basin]

Have you done every ||rad||

[tulip sky]

nope but have done |||wathcers||

[shrewd basin]

I done ||ascended markoth|| wasn't fun

[tulip sky]

yeah but ||p5 markoth|| is overexaggerated

he is NOT that bad

[dawn grove]

Use ||shade cloak effectively and don't panic. Also be prepared to d-dark. Don't rush them and keep your distance if they're grouped. It's better to attack when they're seperated.||

[mystic dagger]

what is that

[tulip sky]

whats what

[mystic dagger]

the blaankkk

[shrewd basin]

Yeah ||p5 markoth is fine ascended markoth sucks||

[tulip sky]

what 💀

[tulip sky]

^^

[inner hound]

always keep the two of them on screen and don't waste your ||iframes options like ddark and shade cloak until you need them||

[mystic dagger]

can you guys not see it???

[inner hound]

also, when one of them does the nail attack and the other one is not a threat, ||dash through him and hit him, you will get a ton of damage very quickly||

[mystic dagger]

OH WAIT SORRY

[shrewd basin]

See what

[mystic dagger]

THE TEXT WERE COMING IN THE GREY BOXESAND THEN WHEN I JUST CLICKED ON THEM

they became text texts

[shrewd basin]

Yeah it's a spoiler tag welcome to discord

[mystic dagger]

ohh

thanks

[tulip sky]

see what

[tulip sky]

bruh

[inner hound]

so if you dont want to get spoiled, dont click them, and if you want someone to not get spoiled, use them

[shrewd basin]

I die after 3 every time

[inner hound]

when they ||roll on the ground, pogo them to dont get hit by their hitbox, and also to refresh your movement options||

[shrewd basin]

I died while trying to ||dive||

Wait does the first one have significantly less health than the next 5

[inner hound]

no

[shrewd basin]

It seems like it dies so much faster

[inner hound]

hes just simpler cuz you dont have to deal with 2 at a time

[vale tulip]

I BEAT ||PANTHEON 3|| LETS FUCKING GO

[shrewd basin]

They bounce so randomly

[onyx fern]

How the fuck do I beat ||oro and mato|| on ||radiant||? I didn't have this much trouble with ||markoth|| bro

[shrewd basin]

Are you telling me that you beat ||radiant markoth||

[vale tulip]

FUCK ||HIVE KNIGHT|| FUCK ||ELDER HU|| FUCK ||THE COLLECTOR|| FUCK ||GOD TAMER|| AND FUCK HIS ||PET|| FUCK ||GALIEN|| FUCK ||ZOTE|| FUCK ||HORNET|| AND FUCK ||SLY||

[onyx fern]

Yeah and it took less time than ||oro and mato||😭

I can't fucking deal with more than one enemies at a time

[shrewd basin]

I had 2 left 😦

[vale tulip]

why would u do this to urself

[onyx fern]

I'm bored after 100%ing the game on steam

[vale tulip]

bro just go play another game or something 😭😭

[shrewd basin]

I hate ||the bloody watcher knights||

[onyx fern]

There's no other game like hollow knight😔

[tawny sapphire]

Nine Sols

Dead Cells

[onyx fern]

Yeah, those sucked when trying to beat them on |||radiant||

[tawny sapphire]

Hyper Light Drifter

[onyx fern]

I've actually wanted to try Nine Sols but first I'll deal with all the ||radiant|| bosses

[vale tulip]

the F + Down keys

[vale tulip]

just play ultrakill or something its fun

[shrewd basin]

Have you done ||radiant absolute radiance||

[vale tulip]

whats wrong with u

[shrewd basin]

Nothing I haven't done it lol

[onyx fern]

Not yet.

I'm saving that for last

[shrewd basin]

I can't even do ||ascended||

[onyx fern]

I got lucky once and beat her ||ascended|| but honestly, me neither

Imma have to practice

[shrewd basin]

I made it to top once

She's the only boss I haven't done on ||ascended||

[onyx fern]

Fuck ||Oro and Mato|| I can't believe this bullshit of a boss exists

It takes 20 years to even defeat one of them if you're not decimated by a random ||dash slash|| from the other side of the screen

[shrewd basin]

Exactly why I haven't beaten them

[inner hound]

you can hear him charging it, you just need to jump preventively

[onyx fern]

I'm trying to do that but I'm always busy with smacking ||mato|| and I always react too late, like I said, I just can't deal with 2 or more bosses at a same time.. It's a miracle I could do ||obblobbles and watcher knights||

[tulip sky]

bro calm down

@queen cedar anything that yk

spoils the game for new players

[queen cedar]

I'm trying to defeat ||charmless ascended Markoth|| twice in a row in order to prepare for the || charmless Pantheon of Hallownest.|| I've incorporated every tip I know how to (||nail arts|| in 1st phase, ||spells|| in 2nd, keep the right distance, don't get greedy, etc.), but I can't seem to consistently defeat him; in fact, most of the time, I lose. How can I more consistently defeat him? Is it just a matter of practice?

[tulip sky]

better question is why are you doing this to yourself

but like i guess just be really patient, only attack when your SURE you wont take damage

[tulip sky]

especially in the first phase cause ||nail arts|| stun you for a bit

[lusty flame]

How much does ||maps count to the total %? (Im doing mapless steel heart)||

[shrewd basin]

0

[queen cedar]

Well... maybe I'm over-preparing. I'm trying to prepare for the last chain of ||5 bosses before the final one|| since my first few attempts at the || Pantheon || were either stopped there or at || the collector.|| My real problem isn't ||Markoth||, it's the fact that's he's followed by || GPZ ||, ||the Failed Chamption||, and ||Nightmare King Grimm||. Maybe I can leave ||Markoth|| alone for a bit and focus on the other three

[shrewd basin]

You could get 112 mapless

[tulip sky]

||nkg|| charmless is fucking hell

[queen cedar]

Yeah... yeah... but at least the other ||bindings|| will be easier after this, right? Hopefully?

[lusty flame]

nice

[shrewd basin]

Also we definitely getting silksong this year

[tulip sky]

ehh the ||soul|| one is really hard too but i guess you could say that with the other ||bindings|| as well

[queen cedar]

Gotcha. Well I'll try training against ||NKG||, ||Failed Champion||, and ||NKG|| for a bit, then give the || Pantheon || another go. Thanks!

[shrewd basin]

What's the best ||OC charm set for radiant watchers|| they are really irritating me

[acoustic sigil]

||Shaman stone, quick slash, strength, steady body, soul eater||

[shrewd basin]

||Steady body?||

[acoustic sigil]

It's peak

[shrewd basin]

I have never found a good use for it

[acoustic sigil]

||Allows you to utilise quick slash much more||

||And I can't think of a other 1 notch'er||

That would help

[shrewd basin]

But you can just hold forward

[acoustic sigil]

Okay buddy

[ebon copper]

it helps a lot with facedance

to have ||sb||

[shrewd basin]

How

[acoustic sigil]

||Okay but this is watcher knights lol||

[ebon copper]

it can be hard to control your characters position midair

[shrewd basin]

Okay I'll try it cuz it's actually really annoying

[ebon copper]

||sb|| helps you stay in the same place while doing nail turnarounds

[mild patrol]

how do i activate this?

[ebon copper]

i find it hard to compliment ||sb|| much, since i dont really use it, but it does help in many fights ik

[acoustic sigil]

||Hit upwards in the elevator||

[shrewd basin]

It feels really weird to use

[mild patrol]

thanks

[ebon copper]

best example i could think of was facedance

[acoustic sigil]

Yeah fair

[shrewd basin]

I guess I'm too used to knock back for it to really work

[acoustic sigil]

||Yeah just dcrest or somethink idk||

[shrewd basin]

I died to ||shade cloak|| bruh

[ebon copper]

id probably use ||shaman, mop, qs, dw, soul eater||

its like the safe build

it just helps a bunch with ||ddark|| spam

[shrewd basin]

I'm too used to the longer ||dash||

[ebon copper]

ye, just get rid of ||ss||

[shrewd basin]

I've always fought them with it tho

[ebon copper]

like its just really bad

idk, you can use it, its just a waste

fun for challange runs tho

moderately

[shrewd basin]

I'm doing so much worse without it

[mild patrol]

how do i open the door again? after i unlocked it it closed

[ebon copper]

thats just temporarly

[ebon copper]

it wont open again

[mild patrol]

so how do i get back.

[ebon copper]

find another way

not where you got there from

[shrewd basin]

I genuinely do so much better with ||sharp shadow||

[mild patrol]

alr thanks

[carmine shuttle]

||after unlocking the dream nail, I got sent on a rabbit hole down to about this area, and , I can’t find the way out back to like dirt mouth or any of the main ways of the map, any tips on where to go?||

[ebon copper]

good luck!

[ebon copper]

cause you are used to it

[shrewd basin]

I used it for most of ||p5||

[ebon copper]

i always tell ppl not to use it cause its horribly wasteful

but if you enjoy the game more with it, than just play with it ig

[ebon copper]

send a pic of your inventory

[ebon copper]

you cant do much here as of right now, go back up towards the ||tram||

to advance here you need something from an area right to ||forgotten crossroads||

[carmine shuttle]

Alrighty , so in what way am I able to return to ||dirtmouth|| , every way seems to be a dead end from here

Even on the way backwards

[ebon copper]

from there to the right, and up in the drop room

[shrewd basin]

Keep dying halfway

[lusty flame]

perhaps try to lure one by one

[ebon copper]

its one of the harder ones, so its very normal to struggle with it a bit

[shrewd basin]

Fricking contact damage

2 ffssssss

Ok these things are bugging me

There was literally 2 left

[drifting dove]

Where do i go after getting||crystal dash||

[shrewd basin]

Anywhere you haven't been just explore

[drifting dove]

Vro

[acoustic chasm]

Where’s || king station in the city of tears||

[drifting dove]

Im too dumb

[drifting dove]

Theres ||King station||?!

[acoustic chasm]

Idk someone told me that yesterday

But I couldn’t go to it because my dog wouldn’t leave me alone

[shrewd basin]

Past the statue of ||the hollow knight||

[drifting dove]

Maybe its next to the ||statue thingy near some vendor||

Yess i knew it❤️‍🩹

[acoustic chasm]

I don’t remember where that is

How close is it to the ||stag station||

[acoustic sigil]

Do you have the map of the area

[shrewd basin]

If the door is locked then you'll have to go through the ||sewers|| or through ||resting grounds||

I actually hate these things

Anyone who has completed ||radhog|| are you ok

[acoustic chasm]

Oh yes

[acoustic sigil]

Can you send it

[drifting dove]

Bottom left

Right*

[acoustic chasm]

Ok

And do I have to go left or right of the statue

[acoustic sigil]

If you get lost easily

[marsh ravine]

[acoustic sigil]

Then yes

[acoustic chasm]

Oh that one

[drifting dove]

Yeas

[jolly basin]

do u need ||downward spell|| to reach ||herra the beast|| from ||mantis lords||?

[acoustic sigil]

No

[jolly basin]

nice

[drifting dove]

Oh yeah how to get to her

[acoustic sigil]

||Look at your map, go to the big mask||

There isn't really a trick or secret route

Just waltz your way through the area

[jolly basin]

I know how to reach her I just forgot cuz I haven't played in a while and am trying to do that 5h playtrhough achivement

[acoustic sigil]

gg

[drifting dove]

U mean ||Black egg temple?||😭

[jolly basin]

nah

[acoustic sigil]

||If you got the item that made you aware of herrah, then there are more masks on your map||

If you don't have the item but were spoiled on it or something, then do not worry about it

[drifting dove]

I mean i got the ||sans charm|| and i saw her

[acoustic sigil]

What

Ohhh

[jolly basin]

sry

forgot

[drifting dove]

Np

[acoustic sigil]

That's not who ||herrah ||is

[drifting dove]

Oh

XDD

[shrewd basin]

Why am I struggling more on ||rad watchers than rad pure vessel||

[jolly basin]

||u guys think I will still get to herrah on this one and beat THK after that?||

the 5h achivement is kinda annoying

[shrewd basin]

I reckon so yeah

It's easier than you think

[acoustic sigil]

You'll probably manage, but if not, use this route the next attempt
||https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1861523602||

[jolly basin]

ah well, here goes nothing

[acoustic chasm]

Bro how

[acoustic sigil]

Idk what he was talking about

Which is why I asked you to send your map

[acoustic chasm]

How do I go above the statue

[acoustic sigil]

You can't

For now, or if you mean through that transition, than never

But that's also not how to get to|| kings station so||

[acoustic chasm]

How do I get there then?

[acoustic sigil]

^

I don't think you are even close to reaching it personally

[acoustic chasm]

Oh sorry I thought you were talking to someone else

[shrewd basin]

@acoustic sigil how to do ||no Eyes||

[acoustic chasm]

Do you want me to send everything or just || city of tears||

[acoustic sigil]

Patience

[acoustic sigil]

||Just city is fine||

[acoustic sigil]

||I haven't done the rad fight cause I don't want to, but it is as simple as being patient and charging nail arts while being patient||

[acoustic chasm]

Also why is there a ||hornet|| marker in the forgotten cross roads

[acoustic sigil]

||Cause you visited the statue||

Okay so ||kings station ||is about here, you can't reach it rn

Why do you want to go there so badly in the first place

[acoustic chasm]

Someone told me to get to ||ancient basin|| I need to go there

[acoustic sigil]

I mean ig you could go there, not really a must

Nor is|| kings station|| relevant for that

Can you send a screenshot of your inventory

[acoustic chasm]

I want || monarch wings|| so that’s why I wanna go there

Uh ya

Oh I forgot the spoiler

[shrewd basin]

You need another ability before you can get ||monarch wings||

[acoustic sigil]

Yeah you aren't getting|| monarch wings||

[acoustic chasm]

Is it || c dash||

[shrewd basin]

Yh

[acoustic sigil]

Yes

[acoustic chasm]

Oh

Imma just explore then

[acoustic sigil]

Do you see how googling and/or having spoilers just made everything way more confusing for you

I'd avoid that

[acoustic chasm]

Ya sorry for wasting your time

[shrewd basin]

The channel is made to help players so it's not at all a waste of time

[icy drum]

What does it mean to let ||zote|| die?

How does one do that/avoid it? And should I?

[shrewd basin]

To let him die don't kill the ||vengefly king|| to make him live kill the ||vengefly king||

[icy drum]

Isn’t the ||vengefly king in crossroads? Also how do ik if I did that, if I don’t remember? Is there a way to check?||

[shrewd basin]

It's in the section above ||hornet protector||

[rare topaz]

Is there a easy way to beat the ||watcher knights?||

[shrewd basin]

Yes there is

[icy drum]

Yes, there’s something you can do to have one of them dead before the fight starts

[shrewd basin]

Can I see your charms

[rare topaz]

Ik that

[shrewd basin]

And abilities

[rare topaz]

Brhh

[shrewd basin]

Do you have all the charms

[rare topaz]

No

[icy drum]

So should I let ||zote|| die?

[shrewd basin]

Up to you

[icy drum]

Does it really affect anything?

[shrewd basin]

If you don't then there will be more content

[rare topaz]

Ill sent a picture of my charms brb

[shrewd basin]

If you do it'll make something endgame a bit easier

[icy drum]

You can spoil, idc

Smthn abt ||p3&4||

[acoustic chasm]

What does the ||hornet shaped marker mean at the black egg temple?||

[acoustic sigil]

Go back to where it was

But if you already did it, just commit

Or if you didn't, just commit

It doesn't really matter

[icy drum]

If I go back how do ik

[acoustic sigil]

||If his skull is there, he's dead||

[acoustic chasm]

What do I do with that

[acoustic sigil]

Nothing atm

[acoustic chasm]

Ok

[acoustic sigil]

Just keep it in mind for the future

[jolly basin]

ha, only one achivement left til I get 100%

[shrewd basin]

Is it ||embrace the void||

[rare topaz]

@shrewd basin these are my charms

[acoustic sigil]

||I'd use quick slash + mark of pride or soul catcher + grubsong instead of MoP||

[jolly basin]

already got that one long ago

[shrewd basin]

Oh damn which one then

[jolly basin]

||it's finishing the grimm ritual, turns out I haven't done that on pc yet||

[shrewd basin]

Oh ||NKG|| fun

[jolly basin]

||the sidequest is just kinda annoying but the boss is fun||

[shrewd basin]

Yeah

[acoustic chasm]

I hate this game ||crystal peaks|| is horrible

[shrewd basin]

Yeah that's where I had most of my deaths

[acoustic chasm]

Who ever added this area needs to reconsider their job opportunities

I just lost 300 geo because of this stupid area

[simple island]

something tells me you don't really hate this game
but like... yeah ||peaks is annoying
I suppose you don't have the map and just lost all your geo, which is fine, it happens and that isn't too bad

if you are looking for the map it is on the leftside of the map||

[acoustic chasm]

I have the map I’m still mad

[simple island]

300 whole geo ??? damn, that is like... completely insignificant

[acoustic chasm]

Damn it’s almost like nobody asked

[simple island]

I assume you have been to ||city of tears ? so you found the NPC that sells relics right ?
that is gonna be your source of money for a while, and the good thing with them, is that relics can stay in your inventory, acting like geo you have in the bank, because they don't go away if you die||

[fathom creek]

so true the 1 person that designed every area in the whole game u mean? I guess the game just shouldn't exist

[acoustic chasm]

no just ||crystal peaks|| the rest is fine

[fathom creek]

yes but one person (maybe 2 I guess) designed every area so if they need to reconsider job opportunities then the whole game doesn't exist

[acoustic sigil]

Jack vine erasure

(I have no idea what he did)

[fathom creek]

He was only apart of dlcs lol

[inner robin]

Well the dlc has areas

[simple island]

ish

[fathom creek]

yea but hes only a coder isnt he but idk

[inner robin]

I’d imagine such a small team has everybody at least a little but involved

[acoustic sigil]

Programming, doing shaders and effects, UI, AI programming and more

A la his LinkedIn

[fathom creek]

I just looked at their website which says "Jack is Team Cherry's supremely talented coder." but yea alright

not another pirate

[tight lotus]

I just freed ||zote||, on which one will he be

[acoustic chasm]

Is the || crystal guardian|| an actual boss or just like a mini boss

[simple island]

first

[tight lotus]

thx

[fathom creek]

The game doesn't really define it well at all but I guess actual boss

[simple island]

according to the game it is a boss, mostly because the game does not define anything as miniboss

[acoustic chasm]

Do I have to fight him

[simple island]

well he does ||guard a bench||... but you really don't

[acoustic chasm]

Idk I don’t really feel like it

[hollow bramble]

Yeah he’s pretty lame

[drifting dove]

Real

[acoustic chasm]

Oh is || c dash called crystal heart?||

[drifting dove]

How did i get to ||kings station|| faster than u

[acoustic chasm]

Idk

[drifting dove]

Yes

[acoustic chasm]

I just found it then

I was just running around

[spark sierra]

charm advice for the || 2nd part of the pantheon of the master, im having a hard time on oro and mato ||

[acoustic chasm]

Bro this bot just saying stuff is a spoiler to say something at this point

How is || shade|| a spoiler

[inner hound]

||kings pass|| is a spoiler

[acoustic chasm]

💀

[thick wing]

Read the pins, theres a list

[acoustic chasm]

Bro everyone has died at least once

[inner hound]

like, you can say ||"charms"|| but youre not able to talk about ||kp||

[thick wing]

theres a list, you can modmail about it if you feel theres a good argument to be made about a certain word

[acoustic chasm]

So where do I go now?

[simple island]

well there is one major item to get in ||peaks, if you get it then you get to progress in previous areas, go back to city, go back to the bottom of fungal waste...||

[acoustic chasm]

Ight

[solemn ibex]

Yessssooooooooo!!!!

[acoustic sigil]

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

[zinc verge]

||soul warrior|| can be considered a miniboss

[acoustic sigil]

It can, but the game doesn't

[hollow bramble]

||i use nail build - strength, mark of pride, quickslash, grubsong, steady body. more importantly than charms however is how the two brothers attack. if theyre both on one side of the arena, they will take turns attacking u - either jump slamming down or slashing like the watcher knights. each time they do this, u wanna dash out of the way or be out of their range then dash/walk back in and get 1-2 attacks. if one of them charges up be ready to dodge the nail art attack. this can be done with ddark/shade cloak/ jump over the dash slash or moving away from cyclone slash. note that this will often lead to you being surrounded and if thats the case whenever you're in between the brothers use ddark and get out then they'll take turns again. focus less on healing and more on understanding their moves. once u figure out their rhythm its quite easy.||

[random whale]

How do I do that spoiler

Thing

[acoustic sigil]

||like this||

[random whale]

How do I cheese ||hornet||

[acoustic sigil]

The cheese is learning the attacks and responding appropiatly

(there is no cheese)

[random whale]

||danm||

Well what charms do I use for ||hornet||

[acoustic sigil]

What charms do you have

[random whale]

Can I send a picture?

[acoustic sigil]

[random whale]

Okay

Well that was easy

[acoustic sigil]

||Fwiw, there is a bench way closer by||

||If you use spells, I'd go with shaman stone + quick slash, otherwise quick slash + mark of pride||

[random whale]

I’ll use ||shaman stone and quick slash||

@acoustic sigil and I have ||channeled nail||

[simple island]

yeah that is about optimal

[random whale]

?

[simple island]

its a matter of giving it enough tries and learning her patterns

you can always just leave her be and try to grab more stuff

[random whale]

I do know most of her attacks

[simple island]

also do know that|| spells can clear out the spikes, which can be really u||seful

[random whale]

Expect that ||aoe|| attack

Oh cool

Is seven hearts good for it too?

[carmine nimbus]

how do i get out of ||deepnest|| please i hate it

[random whale]

I dislike ||nosk|| too

[simple island]

where are you at ? the ||hotspring ||?

[acoustic sigil]

Spoiler tags, and yeah sure

[carmine nimbus]

oh mb

[carmine nimbus]

im at the main room (i assume), i just fell into it from ||fungal wastes||

[simple island]

then just climb up, there are lots of path left and right to take to wiggle back up

[carmine nimbus]

i cant see any, the little bits in between the passageways at the top are unclimbable so should i just go to the other exit

[carmine nimbus]

oh ok thanks

[random whale]

How do I beat ||hornet||

Like

4th stage for ||hornet|| and still lost

[jade sedge]

||It doesnt have four stages. Staggers are based on amount of hits, not damage, so the amount varies on damage per hit, and they are faster to get when done fast enough so their amount varies||

[random whale]

Ik

[jade sedge]

||You can heal safely on the needle throw attack. Your fireball deals three times your nail damage so use it whenever you have excess soul||

[random whale]

I need to know what ||charms|| to use

Okay

[jade sedge]

What do you have

[random whale]

I’ll send pic rq

[jade sedge]

||You know, you should specify if it isnt in greenpath...||

[random whale]

Oh I’m really sorry

That’s my fault

[jade sedge]

||Fireball doesnt necessarily deal three times your nail damage but spells are still great, shamans is your best charm if you use spells. Then probably twister and gsong. You can use quick slash if you play aggressively enough.||

[jade sedge]

Dont worry

[random whale]

So like I can use ||shaman stone|| and ||quick slash||

[acoustic sigil]

Damn if only someone said that 43 minutes ago

[pulsar sun]

||I am having a hard time beating Nightmare king grimm, Got any tips||

[dawn grove]

What charms u using?

[pulsar sun]

||Unbreakable Heart, Unbreakable strength, quickslash, soul catcher. this is for pantheon of hollownest||

[shrewd basin]

Practice and git gud

[pulsar sun]

that's what I am doing right now

[acoustic sigil]

Increadibly helpful

[shrewd basin]

Ik it is

[acoustic sigil]

||You are missing one notch, you'd probably want it for these late game challenges||

[shrewd basin]

||soul catcher|| is pretty bad

[drowsy yarrow]

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

I'm thinking of doing a 5th playthrough just to record boss demos ||in the location you first meet them to prevent spoilers||

[acoustic sigil]

Worth

[pulsar sun]

just a quick question ||who has beaten RAR||

this is just out of curiosity

[drowsy yarrow]

||RAR||?

[pulsar sun]

||Radiant Absolute Radiance||

[drowsy yarrow]

Several people here have. It's not easy though. Took me like ||20 hours total absrad practice||

[shrewd basin]

I have only beaten her on the easiest difficulty

[drowsy yarrow]

For most people it's the last barrier for ||radhog||

[tight lotus]

||how much pale ores does the final nail upgrade needs||

[shrewd basin]

3

There's ||6 pale ore|| in the game

[spice nebula]

I’m struggling with || trial of the conqueror, my current build is shaman stone, spell twister, soul catcher, and grubsong. I have the channelled nail so I went for a spell build instead. Any tips? ||

[charred raven]

this looks like modded content, is it? source: ||https://youtu.be/rq2vtgodGHo||

[vagrant furnace]

get a better nail and ||great slash||

[charred raven]

||upgrading your nail will be nice, spells are not very good for dealing with many waves of enemies||

||try a healing charm because you're probably gonna get hit and you probably want to heal||

[onyx fern]

it's genuinely taking longer to beat ||radiant oro and mato|| than ||radiant nkg||😭

[spice nebula]

Which do you recommend?

[west lichen]

How do I not get my messages deleted

[charred raven]

||no fr I had the same experience I'm still stuck on them||

[umbral orchid]

Read the pinned messages, you need to block out sections of the messages that feature spoilers

[charred raven]

||I used quick focus + bauldr's thingy the one that protects you while healing||

[onyx fern]

Bro I did ||radiant markoth|| quicker not even joking💀

[west lichen]

@umbral orchid oh ok thanks

[charred raven]

okay WHAT 💀

[spice nebula]

Ok thanks

[onyx fern]

||weaversong + grubsong + nailmasters glory and shaman stone|| carried

it's mostly just luck tho

The last two I haven't even started but I can tell you right now I'm going to struggle less against ||absrad||

[west lichen]

@umbral orchid how do I block out spoilers

[charred raven]

||WAIT HITTING FROM AFAR IS GOATED FOR MARKOTH RADIANT YOURE RIGHT||

[umbral orchid]

put 2 vertical lines on either side of what needs blocking ||

||then you get this effect||

[charred raven]

lmao

[west lichen]

Oh ok thanks

[charred raven]

||I didn't play radiance yet but pure vessel is free after some practice, the brothers however 💀 ||

[onyx fern]

Some people also use ||grubberfly's elegy ||

[acoustic sigil]

||like this||

[onyx fern]

Yeah I did him no hit in ||p5|| already

[fiery heron]

||Oro and Mato|| used to be insanely difficult for me and now I beat them no hit or one hit every time. what are you struggling with most maybe I can help

[west lichen]

||Like this?||

[charred raven]

lmao nice

[west lichen]

Does anyone have any recommendations for what ||charm build I should use for trial of the fool||

[onyx fern]

I'm not really sure, I can get through the first phase in like 13 seconds but then the second phase takes forever and I always just die

[atomic oxide]

||spells worked for me. i used shamans, nail masters glory, soul eater, spell twister||

||quick slash is awful in pantheon and strength isnt much better||

[onyx fern]

I use ||sharp shadow, shaman stone, quickslash, spell twister and strenght||

[dawn grove]

Don't go between them. Make sure you keep them both to one side and make sure you have room to dodge. Preferably, you want to have half the arena to yourself while they stay on the other side

[drowsy yarrow]

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

[onyx fern]

I dunno how to manipulate where they go so they just keep pushing me towards the wall

Do I just go closer to the center ?

maybe

[west lichen]

@drowsy yarrow thanks

[dawn grove]

If they do that you gotta switch to the other side and make sure they don't corner you again

[dawn grove]

Yes

[west lichen]

Does anyone have any tips for grinding geo

[dawn grove]

And keep them on one side

If you keep them both on the same side they'll only attack one at a time

[atomic oxide]

||PV tips? tried praticing, the knife throw and triple slash attacks for some reason i cant dodge consistenly. The knife throw gets me even when shade dashing through it somehwo||

[charred raven]

can I send you failure gameplay later to check out?

[dawn grove]

||If you end up between them, the most likely outcome is that they'll both jump and strike down in the middle. You wanna stay on the ground and dash away under them to escape when they jump||

[drowsy yarrow]

My tips on ||PV||: ||#hk-help message||

[west lichen]

Does anyone have any tips for grinding geo

[keen stream]

after a week or so of straight ||absrad ab|| practice, ||thk|| can now clap me

[charred raven]

||master reading its attacks so you can react fast, the knife throws don't hit you if you stand close to the boss - you can shade dash on the ground to do that||

||triple slash I like to walk away and double jump then dash over||

[shrewd basin]

How far in the game are you

[keen stream]

[dawn grove]

After hours of ||absrad practice I tried p5. I died to Hornet 2 (this was yesterday)||

[keen stream]

the rust latched deep into my flesh

[keen stream]

very relatable

[west lichen]

I'm at ||101%||

[shrewd basin]

I speedran hollow knight to ||112% P5 in 15 hours||

[drowsy yarrow]

||hoppers https://youtu.be/C2T7sw-pqYM?si=bMvDWp_cmw2HYeVl||

[acoustic sigil]

||Colo 2 is the best||

[keen stream]

its just hours... mine is a few days, and im surprised i still remember my speedrun route

[shrewd basin]

Yh

[west lichen]

@acoustic sigil @drowsy yarrow thanks for the advice and tips

[dawn grove]

I practised for days too. I am so glad it's over, I beat it an hour ago and can finally rest

[keen stream]

only reason to use ||greed||

[fiery heron]

bruhhh what is even a spoiler there, nail?

[acoustic sigil]

It says what is

||Dash||

[keen stream]

[shrewd basin]

No ||dash||

[acoustic sigil]

So when it comes to their second phase, you know how they alternate swings? There's two options. When one of them does the attack that stays on the ground, I like to back up and send a ||shade soul|| their way since it will hit ||both of them|| for good damage. When its the attack that involves one jumping in the air, I like to ||dash|| away, wait just outside the range of the swing, and walk in to get one to two nail hits.

You should always try to keep ||both of them|| on one side of you, or else they can ||both attack you|| and it sucks. After four attacks, there is a chance after of their attacks to use a ||nail art|| on you. So you don't have to worry about that until they attack four times, and its not even guaranteed to happen on the fourth, there's only a chance that it does. When this happens, ||only one uses a nail art and the other stands still unless you attack them, in which case the other instantly attacks you with one of their two regular attacks||. I recommend intentionally triggering ||the second one|| so that ||both are on one side of the arena and you can rinse repeat the previous paragraph||.

If you didn't copy it

[drowsy yarrow]

I died like ||4 times to thk on my first speedrun attempt after radhog||

[keen stream]

i died 8 times iirc, and i forgot some of my route

[dawn grove]

||Godhome|| drives you crazy

[shrewd basin]

||thk|| is so free tho

[keen stream]

i got 600 extra geo

[shrewd basin]

What is iirc

[keen stream]

fck my english

[keen stream]

if i remember correctly

[dawn grove]

If I remember correctly

[shrewd basin]

Oh icic

[dawn grove]

[keen stream]

now idk what to do

but im still not done with ||hog ab||

[shrewd basin]

Haven't you done literally everything meii

[keen stream]

still not done with ||bindings||

i think ||weathered mask|| is the only thing im missing rn

[drowsy yarrow]

Maybe you could try ||p4ab. A lot of people do that before p3ab and think it's a bit easier||

[keen stream]

i'll try

[shrewd basin]

I'm so washed at ||absrad||

[drowsy yarrow]

||p3ab is really only hard because of collector and zote||

[keen stream]

and i did too much ||absrad||

[keen stream]

i died to ||zote|| on my last ||p3ab|| attempt

[fiery heron]

||They take turns attacking, either jumping in the air or making two slashes straight towards you. In the case of the air attack, walk/dash just outside their reach, and walk back in once they land for two reasons; one, to get 1-2 nail hits in and two, so that when they attack you next, they don't back you up into a corner. If they use the two nail slashes straight towards you attack, I recommend just using shade soul to get good damage on them. Always try to keep them on the same side of the arena or else they’ll both attack you and it's all over.||

||If Oro uses the nail art (dash slash) then you can tell because they both are on one end of the area. If this is the case then I recommend sending a Shade Soul at them to damage both and trigger Mato to attack so that you can just jump and shade cloak and be on the other side of both with plenty of space. If Mato uses the nail art (cyclone slash), then you can tell because one of them is standing in the middle of the arena. In this case, I recommend upslashing once as Mato lifts up in the air for free damage, and then sending a Shade Soul at Oro to trigger him and get both on the same side of the arena. Rinse repeat paragraphs 1-2.||

||Once one of the brothers is down, then just treat the remaining brother like the start of the fight. Some tips for the start and end are: when it's the jump in air attack, just walk underneath to their other side and attack as soon as they land. when it's the slash straight at you attack, you can actually shade cloak straight through them and immediately attack. When they use a nail art, just dodge it and don't worry about damaging them during it.||

[keen stream]

somehow survived ||collector|| fight

[median carbon]

||I've been doing PoP and normally I exit before I finish but I accidentally watched the cutscene cuz I was zoned out, is there a way I can go back and do it again?||

[fiery heron]

Yeah sure but read what I sent and try it out first to see if it clicks

[fiery heron]

Not without mods

[keen stream]

QoL iirc

[median carbon]

Ty

[keen stream]

its a mod btw

[median carbon]

I have Lumafly I'll just install it rq

[drowsy yarrow]

that's pretty good to make it that far
||toggleable bindings|| would help a ton for practicing those two fights I would think

[keen stream]

i'll try ||p4ab|| first, cause ||gpz|| is way harder than ||nkg and pv|| for some reason

[onyx fern]

Thank you, I got it and I also just did ||radiant pv|| first try so now I only have... ||absrad|| left

[keen stream]

the only problem is... i forgot 50% of the bosses in ||hog||

[shrewd basin]

||p1ab||

[keen stream]

kinda meh

only hard part is ||nail brothers||

[shrewd basin]

Yeh

[keen stream]

||p2ab|| straight up ass

i think i managed to do ||p2ab|| after a few attempts

[vale tulip]

guys this is my first fucking time doing ||p4 im on pure vessel and im on 5 fucking hearts will i win||

[keen stream]

but idek if i can do it now

[keen stream]

100%

[vale tulip]

if i lose im blowing my fucking brains out

[keen stream]

just fight dont think

[drowsy yarrow]

if it's your first time, I'd be astonished if you won

[keen stream]

100% agree

if its ||p1 and p2||, its very understandable

||p3|| is "damn, you're good"

[fiery heron]

my first time getting to the end of ||P5 I got to climb phase||. I'm still salty

[keen stream]

||p4|| is "how tf did you do that"

[drowsy yarrow]

expect to lose at least twice at the ||end of each pantheon||

[shrewd basin]

Guys how do you beat ||massive moss charger|| it's so hard

[keen stream]

||p5|| is "the god has blessed you with insane gaming prowess"

if you did em first try

[vale tulip]

i lasted about 10 seconds

[keen stream]

idk man, that boss is so tuff

[fluid garden]

||p5 first try is easier than p4 first try imo because you already learned all the bosses other than nkg and rad||

[tight lotus]

||I am missing one pale ore but idk which bruh||

[drowsy yarrow]

I died to the ||final phase twice||

[vale tulip]

he doesnt seem that hard tho i think i could put belt to ass

lowk

[tight lotus]

||ohhh the coliseum one||

[keen stream]

||absrad|| first try on first encounter sounds impossible imo

[shrewd basin]

I beat the ||massive moss charger|| first ever?

[tight lotus]

||is the "rare metal" supposed to be the pale ore||

[keen stream]

yeh

[tight lotus]

ohh

[fiery heron]

||Seer, colosseum 2, top of crystal peak, nosk, grubs, ancient basin||

[tight lotus]

thx

[keen stream]

you missed one

[fiery heron]

||im not going for R5 anytime soon but my winning P5 attempt I made it almost 3/4 taking one hit and I know i'll never do that again||

[keen stream]

that ||mini mawleks|| place

[shut sparrow]

they didn't

[fiery heron]

||ancient basin||

yep

[keen stream]

demn, i thought that was ||deepnest||

[vale tulip]

ok 2nd try i near beat him

his heal thing caught me off guard

[keen stream]

did the ||tendrils|| kill you?

[vale tulip]

no i nearly got to that part

they seem easy tho

[keen stream]

you can ||ddark|| through that attack

[drowsy yarrow]

||mmc|| killed me like 3 or 4 times my first playthrough tbh

[keen stream]

very relatable

he's too fat

[mint wadi]

Fatshaming

Tsk tsk

[fiery heron]

wowwww

[mint wadi]

Fatshaming in the big '25

[keen stream]

i mean...

[acoustic chasm]

I just found the || dream nail|| is that good?

[keen stream]

yeh

[shrewd basin]

Yup

[keen stream]

not just good but awesome as well

[vale tulip]

ok this one didnt count he killed me while he was knocked

[dawn grove]

Thought I was the only one. It was so scary at first

[acoustic chasm]

I also found the ||kings station||

[keen stream]

he still has contact hitbox when he's down

[fiery heron]

You're not alone I died a few times too

[keen stream]

you're doing great

[acoustic chasm]

Also can || essence || only be found in the || resting grounds||?

[mint wadi]

Nope

It can be found all over

[dawn grove]

Now ||mmc in the pantheons is just like a filler boss||

[keen stream]

you'd fight for it

[acoustic chasm]

Should I challenge the || warrior dream||.

[mint wadi]

Go for it

[acoustic chasm]

Is he hard

[keen stream]

its not even a boss imo

[keen stream]

nah

[mint wadi]

Not really

[keen stream]

you just jump and hit

move left n right

smth like that

[dawn grove]

There’s normal enemies scarier

[mint wadi]

To be fair that is most enemies in the game

[fiery heron]

dont feel bad if it does challenge you, but thats not a difficult boss comparatively

[acoustic chasm]

Ya I lost

I got him to like summon 2 other things

[dawn grove]

I died to it too and now I find it easy. You'll get there

[acoustic chasm]

Is that his second phase?

[fiery heron]

thats good! you almost beat them

[acoustic chasm]

Fr he’s ez then im going back

[onyx fern]

MAN WHAT DID I SAY

[vale tulip]

so stupid

[onyx fern]

6 TRIES

[vale tulip]

he knows hed get his ass beat by lil bro if he didnt have that

[solemn ibex]

Damn

[onyx fern]

but I struggled against ||oro and mato|| for like 2 hours😭 😭

[solemn ibex]

Unlucky

[dawn grove]

Yooo congrats

[fiery heron]

ayyy good job

[onyx fern]

Thank you!

Now I just need the ||delicate flower ending||

but that shouldn't be hard

probably gonna do it in a separate save though

I like the ||godhome ending|| more

[dawn grove]

My skill is so inconsistent in this game. Yesterday I tried ||ascended absrad for the 2nd time and beat the platforming part with no damage taken. Then lost all my hp at the climb. Today I died to attuned absrad several times|| 💔

[acoustic chasm]

Ya no I’m so done

I got jumped and lost 500 geo

[solemn ibex]

||Dream no more|| or ||embrace the void|| ?

[keen stream]

very relatable

[shrewd basin]

||DNM isn't a godhome ending||

[keen stream]

aint ||dnm|| the ||shit radiance|| ending?

[shrewd basin]

Yeah

It is

[acoustic chasm]

My stupid ghost is trapped in a room that I just jumped in every time I go into

I don’t wanna fight that stupid crap

It’s like 20 god damn enemies

[shrewd basin]

Then get your ||shade from jiji||

[acoustic chasm]

Who the hell is that

[tight lotus]

help I don't wanna kill him

[nova cobalt]

Just leave the room

[shrewd basin]

In ||dirtmouth there's a locked door open it with a simple key and you can give a character called jiji a rancid egg and shell summon your shade||

[tight lotus]

what happens when I return

[acoustic chasm]

I don’t have 950 geo

For a key

[shrewd basin]

You can find a key

[nova cobalt]

He will be gone, but not dead

[tight lotus]

do this

but kill everything on ur way there

[tight lotus]

XD

[acoustic sigil]

You not caring does in fact not mean no one cares

[acoustic chasm]

He’s just trying to help

[shrewd basin]

||You can get a key near storerooms ||

[nova cobalt]

What point in the game are you at?
||If you're in the early game i just farm geo by killing the mosskin with the sword and shield over and over. They drop about 40 geo each||

[acoustic sigil]

And by doing so he breaks the channel rules

[shrewd basin]

What was even the spoiler if you don't mind me asking

[acoustic chasm]

I already used it to open || royale water ways I think ||

[acoustic chasm]

It was just a video of him killing a enemy in || forgotten cross roads||

[tight lotus]

bro what kind of an I breaking, he clearly needed help so he can get geo

[shrewd basin]

Have you got ||double jump||

[acoustic sigil]

Did you even read the text followed by the tag

[acoustic chasm]

Not yet

[tight lotus]

yes and it makes no sense

who doesn't want help bro

[acoustic sigil]

Showing|| infected crossroads||

[shrewd basin]

Ah yeah makes sense

[acoustic sigil]

Clearly you didn't understand it, maybe read it again

[acoustic chasm]

I thought that was like a texture pack or something

[nova cobalt]

Makes sense. However, talking about this has made the spoiler even worse lol

[shrewd basin]

True

[fluid garden]

||wings, dash, shade cloak, all spells, great slash, claw, crystal heart, infected crossroads, dreamnail||

[acoustic sigil]

They shouldn't click at spoilers not directed at them

[shrewd basin]

Oh right that is a lot

[acoustic sigil]

Oh yeah those as well

[nova cobalt]

Please don't punish @tight lotus for this though. It was just an honest mistake. They aren't the first to accidentally spoil someone here and they won't be the last

[vale tulip]

his tendrils are so unpredictable

[acoustic sigil]

No one is being punished, it was just letting them know

But instead of accepting it, arguing was the way to go apperently

[nova cobalt]

Alright

[fluid garden]

yeah i was just informing them

[shrewd basin]

I accepted mine earlier I just deleted the message

[tight lotus]

ofc

and I'm probably not the only one

[nova cobalt]

Ye i get it lol unnecessary spoilers are annoying

[acoustic chasm]

My throat hurt from screaming

[nova cobalt]

Why

[shrewd basin]

What were you screaming at

[acoustic chasm]

bro idk I just woke up on the wrong side of the bed

[acoustic chasm]

The game

[nova cobalt]

Are u stuck at something

[acoustic chasm]

Bro I can’t get my ||shade ||and I don’t wanna go buy a ||simple key|| to get the person or whatever because I can’t really get back to where I am rn

[shrewd basin]

Where did you die

[acoustic chasm]

Bro idk I was going back to the ||resting grounds from kings station|| I took a wrong turn and got locked in and got jumped by like 30 enemies

[shrewd basin]

Oh I know where that is

Yeah I died there a few times when I started

[dawn grove]

Is this in ||city of tears?|| If yes I remember that experience very well

[acoustic chasm]

Yes

[fiery heron]

I'm about to start a silly playthrough where I beat all bosses in ||P5 order||. Only thing I havent figured out on routing yet is this; can you reach ||Massive Moss Charger without mothwing cloak||? I assume you can do a ||shade skip|| in that room to make the jump?

[shrewd basin]

You can do a ||stall ball with vs and I assume a shade skip yes||

[manic tide]

oh

can anyone please help me how to cross this area? my character does not jump this high

[shrewd basin]

You can't currently

[fathom creek]

you can just ||fireball|| skip there no need for anything else

[manic tide]

so where do i go? :C

[acoustic sigil]

In metroidvenias such as hollow knight, you gain movement upgrades as you go. If you don't think you can reach something atm, you probably can't

[dawn grove]

What you need help with

[shrewd basin]

What's up

[acoustic sigil]

You have figured out the exit of this room?

[manic tide]

isnt this the exit? @acoustic sigil

[fiery heron]

ty

[acoustic sigil]

No

[manic tide]

i feel like im stuck because the guy said i cant leave unless i slain a boss

[shrewd basin]

So slay the boss

[manic tide]

there is no boss.

i explored everywhere

[acoustic sigil]

Did you kill the ||baldur Spitting guy ||

[fiery heron]

literally walk for about six seconds and youll be there

[acoustic sigil]

||Baldur = rolly things||

[manic tide]

the dudes that roll on the ground?

[acoustic sigil]

Yes

[manic tide]

yeah i did

[shrewd basin]

Well you can go anywhere pretty much it's non linear

[manic tide]

i killed all of em

[acoustic sigil]

||And the enemy that spits them out||?

And closes up when you get close

[manic tide]

i havent killed that one, thats the problem

i was trying to go back to that area

but idk how to now

but im guessing i messed up and cant kill him now?

[acoustic sigil]

No

[dawn grove]

You have to shoot the ||spell|| at it

[fiery heron]

nope you acquired a new ability recently that you can use to kill it

[manic tide]

yes i got that ability

but im asking

how do i go back?

[limpid basin]

you go forward it brings you back?

[fiery heron]

if you killed the big one with your new ability, just walk forwards

[acoustic sigil]

Generally down

||I don't have the entirety of ancestral mound memorized but its not that big||

[manic tide]

right now im here

[acoustic sigil]

You want to do something like this

It's a bit bigger than that but general directions

[limpid basin]

the snail looking person will open the door when you defeat the big bug guys

[manic tide]

oooh i see

yea i also tried figuring that out, how to get there 😭 but seems like i cant

i'll explore a bit more though

i aprecciate your help

[acoustic chasm]

I finnally got my || shade|| back

[lofty phoenix]

Dude

I’m at ||kingdoms edge||

And I sat on the bench

It’s so hard to get back

Stupid ||primal aphids||

[tight lotus]

NOOO U MONSTER

[acoustic chasm]

I beat the || warrior of the dream ||

[fathom creek]

read ||grubberflys elegy|| charm description

[simple island]

its not what you think
read item descriptions and think about how|| grubs work in real life and you will understand what is actually happening here||

[manic tide]

why is my inventory key not working? im pressing 1 and its not popping up

^while resting

nvm

[tight lotus]

wait so they are alive?

[fathom creek]

yea

[tight lotus]

yey

btw, where is ||god home||

[lone fractal]

Am I softlocked? I don't think I can jump up here and I can't figure out how to jump back to where I came from

[fathom creek]

there are no softlocks in the game

[fathom creek]

in the ||royal waterways||

[lone fractal]

Yeah sorry I'm dumb lol, I figured it out

[fathom creek]

all good

[hasty turtle]

hey can you give me some advice for ||markoth in the P5 ||I hate him ?

[sharp torrent]

||safest strat is to use nail arts (with nmglory) to damage him phase 1, then gun him down with shade souls (with shaman stone)||

[shrewd basin]

Why's everyone confuzz

[bright sorrel]

because its wrong

[shrewd basin]

What is

[solid heart]

He's not gonna get any easier

[shrewd basin]

He ain't he got no patterns

[bright sorrel]

really everything in the message: that it wont get easier and that its "bs"

[shrewd basin]

Ok I guess I can't have an opinion

[dawn grove]

He does get easier but I agree he's pretty bs

[shrewd basin]

He floats around randomly fires nails randomly everything about it is random

[solid heart]

To be fair, he has some bs, like most bosses, that you just gotta avoid. (Talking about nails spawning in the plat you're going )

But most of the fight you can learn how to maneuver

[bright sorrel]

saying it doesnt get easier isnt rly an opinion

[solid heart]

And that's what practice is for

[bright sorrel]

thats not really bs though

[shrewd basin]

Ok my bad

[solid heart]

I call bs an attack that the only way to avoid is to not be there when it happens.
You gotta be prepared to have that not happened because you can have like, close to no reaction time

But is it dodgable? Yeah

Oh wait this is HK help

[bright sorrel]

[shrewd basin]

Yeah

[solid heart]

I get your sentiment to the entire fight being bs tho

But practice is what makes this feeling go away

[hasty turtle]

thanks

[bright sorrel]

yk what isnt bs 😼

GD

[shrewd basin]

I didn't think I said anything wrong all I said was to practice and get used to his bs and I get attacked for it

[solid heart]

And at least he has some pretty begining friendly things you can learn

[solid heart]

GD is pure bs

[bright sorrel]

well no, people cited exactly what you said was wrong: that the fight doesnt get easier

[tight lotus]

||what's the purpose of god home, fighting for fun?||

[solid heart]

Lore or gameplay?

[tight lotus]

gameplay

[solid heart]

Because fun definitely isn't

[bright sorrel]

its essentially a final challenge, a ||boss rush||
