i have lumafly, is it just a mod called debug?
Debug or DebugMod something like that
also thanks for that website it's super helpful !!
Took me ages but since I don't have a laptop/desktop I can't do this
Oh you mean that kind of xbox save
No you can't use such a thing for consoles
Since you can't really extract the save file
awesome, it worked
uh guyqs
Spoiler tag that
oh how and why?
🔹 Ensure Discord’s spoiler tagging is used around spoilers (People, Places, and Things should be spoiler tagged!! if you are confused, please see the pins for what is allowed ).
We do this to be considerate of multiple conversations taking place. Two vertical bars on either side of text will tag it as a spoiler - ||This is a spoiler.|| > ||This is a spoiler.|| Alternatively, adding /spoiler at the start of a message will tag it.
🔹 If you have sent an untagged message, you must either edit it to include spoiler tags or delete it.
just deleted it
Why'd it send so late
any advice for || p3? (mainly sly)||
every keyboard has the verticle bars but yeah there's also the /spoiler way
is it spoilered?
no
bruh
it has to be at the very start of the message
oh ight
||i am really really fucking stuck on cof 2||
For the start and end for the spoiler
which part?
EVERY part
I'd say get ||masks and vessel shards but you could also go for some charms and abilities||
keep forgetting
show us your inventory and map(spoiltagged)
i have every ||charm and spell upgrade btw||
so like screenshot it?
yeah
||quick slash,MoP, dung crest and grubsong aren't to bad||
||btw i am only doing it for the final pale ore (no nosk done yet)||
||use nail arts||
||dung certainly is bad||
||What do these bindings do?||
||makes those things weaker if i remember correctly||
I know it's not the greatest but I like to use it as it can help with the smaller guys
||make it much harder. nail decreases your nail damage by alot, shell reduces your masks to 4, charms disable charms entirely and soul caps your soul container at 1 cast||
||so i farm charm notches for now ig?||
i havent tried ||charms or soul though||
||maybe the one at fog canyon i have yet to get that one||
You can't necessarily grind them but I say buy them all from the shop
oh i think i have 1 missing
?tag uncspoilers
🔹 An unnecessary spoiler is a spoiler (even a tagged one!) that was not directly requested by the user being helped, such as help referencing in-game content that the player has not necessarily reached - Charms build containing Charms they haven’t found, for example. These spoilers, though generally good-intentioned, can harm a player’s experience as any other spoiler would. Remember the game is non-linear; Always make sure to know what a player has and where they’ve reached. A simple screenshot of their map and inventory would tell you all you need to know.
no i meant like charms for the one in the shop
Ohhh my bad I see now
||also ive yet to be in the hive but i did get the 3 dreamers||
Oh okay
so i guess get a single charm for it?
and also my geo situation is fine
like 18 hundred
oh lol
Trust me things get expensive
yeah i know
i farmed 15k without ||collosseums because i didnt know they gave you the rewards again||
that was pain
DAMN
I feel bad for you
just entirely ||fragile greed in kings station||
i mostly followed an optimal guide till i unlocked the final boss then started getting items i needed in the early game
lmfao
Guys i have a problem. About the ||Pure Completion Trophy||. I did beat the ||P4|| FINALLY and I have 112% Finally but the ||Pure completion|| Trophy didn't ||pop|| Do i have to finish the game again?
||i mean depending on how u grinded the geo its not too far off colo2 rates, like hopper farming in kingdoms edge gives really good geo rates as well||
||just get any ending again to receive the achievement||
Do we think I can take on ||soul tyrant and or failed champion|| I know for the second guy I need a nail build but I have one in mind
||i probably need to get the fog canyon charm notch and another charm||
||maybe mark of pride?||
Yeah get them
easily
YIPPE
had not gotten that yet
||alright so mark of pride, salubra then fog canyon||
dawg my whole shtick is the nail
||Can i kill the final boss again in this save or do i have to create another one? I did kill the final boss already in this save||
||idk why i am running shaman stone tbh||
||u can fight thk as many times as u want||
In that case ||mark of pride|| is a must have
you can, you can also just ||kill thk again if you want an easier ending||
Yup! They aren't too hard just keep trying
i'll keep the discord on the other tab while i log back in
u wont be able to join a vc in this server yet since u have the new knight role
Oh okay,that makes sense
Thanks guys @stoic cedar @fluid garden I got the Trophy
ggs
||currently running steady body, quick focus, and quick slash. is that enough for mantis lords with the coiled nail?||
yeah
I wouldn't recommend ||quick focus|| as you won't really be healing but yeah it's enough
Hmmm what ||charms|| do you have
||soul catcher|| would work too
yeah ima try that
||Quick slash|| is good dont remove it
Can i ||fast travel to Godhome?|| or do i have to go to the ||Junk pit|| every time i wanna go there?
Set a ||dream gate|| next to the ||godseeker||
i dont like || sly || because i have a skill issue
beat em
first try ngl
||just did the quick slash spam strat||
the most braindead op strat ever
yeah they're quite easy if you just do that
||mantis lords|| took me multiple hours on my first playthrough
||got mark of pride and currently in queens station, do i try to get the fog canyon charm notch or just go to salubra already?||
||then the fog canyon notch?||
||sly's 2nd phase feels awful to fight because i know im not gonna survive for long because idk how to dodge and i also do not know how long the phase will be||
Stand still in the center and when he's about to do ||the spinning attack dash away||, then turn back and hit him once. Repeat
its surprisingly easy when i do that, i won
now to do it in ||p3||
||alright bought the second to final salubra charm notch||
still one left
||YES BEAT THE COF 2||
YESSS
||but.... now i need to do nosk 😭||
dawg i also need like a shit ton of money
like a metric ton
||well I mean u just beat one of the best sources for geo grinding, colo2. But if I had to guess u probably don’t want to do colo2 again any time soon so instead if u really need the geo u can go sell some relics to lemm||
||the geo repeats, but not the pale ore||
||nosk|| isn’t that bad, it’s kinda repetitive imo, plus can be cheesed
||stand right beside the raised platform||
yeah ik but just died to him and did not take the bench
i rather make the whole way back then be stuck there
hellhole
YES
||GOD I HATE DEEPNEST||
ALRIGHT NOW I JUST NEED MONEY GOD
why do you hate that place... i love it 
fair enough
with all my heart
||so now i guess i just do colo2 again for money then i get the pure nail||
yeh
||for whatever reason i cant see myself on the map||
||Do you have compass equiped||
||oh right i forgot i unequipped it 😅 ||
it triggers my arachnaphobia and im not scared of spiders
i cant blame you i hated that place
only good thing to come out of there is ||weaversong||
whats that?
friends 
||I defeated nosk in there ||
||alright finished colo2 so now i can finally get the nail update||
||charm that lets you get little spiders and it synergizes with some other charms||
||how do you get the pure nail?||
where about is it?
how many to be exact
||deepnest, where the spiders are more specificially||
||im currently at channelled nail||
anywhere specific on the map
cool
||augh i need more charms (for anyone wondering why they're yellow is cus of skin mod)||#
||dont remember but its behind one of those big guys that do 2 masks and have a shield until they attack, its a breakable wall||
guh aight
i'll find out myself
somehow
||im pretty sure its a connecting hallway to the big open area room near the village, just kinda fast travel there and go straight right and up until you find what i mentioned earlier if i remember correctly||
nice, now you can kill everything fast
||find all charm notches except grimm troupe one?||
Hey
||i do need the fog canyon one||
||that and vessel fragments and mask shards, if you dont have those||
dont remember
never got max health myself tbh
theres more
3 extra soul total and theres at least 2 more masks
ight
but dawg ive been playing hk for so long now
i might need to go to sleep soon
cause i have 8 masks rn and i have ||1 mask shard|| so theres more
like ive been playing for 7 hours straight man
ive done so much today
i am tired af
relatable
Hi.
|| I've only left 'Embrace the void' achievement. I'm coming till the end, and losing to the Radiance. Any tips & tricks for it? After beating the last pantheon, i'll have 100% completion :d ||
i beat the entire game from a save file that wasnt that far in one sitting
this game is beatiful and i am glad i picked it up from my library again
Could I DM you about an invite to another server?
why not 
||yo btw can you get to grimm troup or the godhome without buying the dlc?||
forgot the spoiler
To answer that, there is no purchasing of dlc in hk
there is a dlc tho
Not really, they’re just free updates
You don’t pay for dlc it’s just there already
oh ight
||then when do you unlock/ where do you unlock grimm tho since i do want that unbreakable strength||
Calling it that confuses people but really it’s just large free updates that came out
||but first i need to beat the hollow knight ig||
sent!
if you really want to do ||grimm||, you can do his stuff without actually fighting ||thk||
All the dlc is integrated into the base game well, you’ve likely already come across at least a part of it. Nothing is locked behind credits
ight ight
||is there anyway i can upgrade vengeful spirit?||
||yes, u need elegant key from sly then go back to soul sanctum||
||Quick question, must I defeat Nightmare King Grimm in the Pantheon to unlock his form in the Godhome?||
No
||If you bring the quest to an end in dirtmouth, he is automatically in hall of gods||
hey I need help for ||absolute randiance ||can you help me pls ?
Here's some ||absrad|| tips: ||#hk-help message||
||is there a way to expand the amount of charms i can hold?||
||Charm notches|| you can find a few around the map
Forgot the exact amount. Think it's like 7
I think the max you have is 9
11 is max
but yeah you can find 8
Pinned when
lmao we bouta incorporate cc pins into hk
Are these good for ||soul tyrant|| if not give me some recommendations
Always a bit annoying when most servers don't have cc like pins
looks good
||probably fine||
||can swap heart with longnail||
I die easily to him but I'll try it out
||I'm genuinely starting to forget that the overworld bosses are hard when you first fight them||
what do i do after getting branded?
You can get a really good ability
It's a bit of a spoiler so are you okay if I say it
i got it
ou
Well you can get a charm with the ability but the charm is okay,not needed but okay
Also probably do more ||dreamers|| then to get your ||dream nail|| thingys
ok
question tho
|| how do i even get to them i found the one with qurriel||
but i dont know where to even find the rest
||go to the thingy in the resting grounds||
||the statue with the three dreamer masks on it that are glowing if you haven’t been there it will mark them on your map and allow you to unlock dreamnail||
|| I did that im asking how to even fnd the other 2 since i killed 1 at fog||
They're on the map
Ye
|| I know but i mean how do i reach them ive been trying to get one under blue lake for the past hour||
||You wanna know which area each dreamer is in or is that spoilers||
|| its fine to tell me i just wanna beat the game ||
||City of tears in Watcher's Spire and Deepnest in the distant village||
ok
Specifically the one in ||Deepnest is in the beast's den||
how to unlock
Hello, I would like some help to get out of ||the white palace||.
I've got the ||second half of the charm||, and I went for a second time to have a look at ||the secret rooms||.
But now I can't get out, I'm stuck at this bench..
I've tried ||dying||, but it just respawned me at the bench.
||Its the bench right before the throne room I think||
For ||Failed champion||
okay, so, go back ||to the area right before this with the bench and exit through the yellow light thing||
Is this any good for him?
I will try, I hope its not harder then getting here
|| am i the only one who thinks long nail charms and steady body are useless? lol||
it’s all opinion tbh
||i really like steady body but can never find use in the longnail charms||
||long nail I only use with MoP and I like steady body for a nail build||
yep it depends on playstyle
||imagine dissing nail range smh||
never found it useful 🤷
in my opinion|| quick slash , quick heal charm , soul charm , shaman = 3 + 3 + 2 + 3 = 11 ||
also ||spells work really well against failed champion but if you feel better with nail go ahead and try with that||
I love ||spells|| but since you get barely any soul from him I thought it's pointless
use || dream nail ||
Oh yeah
ah fair
but yeah if you can get past the first part it basically just trivializes the fight
AYY I JUST GOT ||DREAM GATE||
||i just spam him and he gets knocked before he reacts lol||
Isn't there an immortality glitch with it
@hearty tulip any idea ?
i mean it looks like you have all of them so i can’t really say ??
yeah
yes, but cheating breaks the fun of going through the game by yourself so i'd recommend not doing it in your first playthrough
yea that's why I'm confused
I'm probably only gonna do it for things I don't care about, mainly getting geo EG: trials
Still gonna be fun for me anyway I love this game
So.. I didn't try it before.. Now I did.
It felt longer getting up, I'm not good at ||2D platforming games||
It was little hard getting down, I cut my finger when caring for roses, so pressing keys was little annoying
But thank you, I sometimes forget to use my brain (:
keep in mind that some version of this glitch make you unable to collect the geo on the ground
happens to all of us lol
hope you’re having fun tho ⭐️
yes (:
aaaaa ?
Oh okay tysm!
||what charms should i use for traitor lord?|| (||i have beaten some of the hard(er) bosses first try on my first playthough but i cant seem to get this one||)
what ||charms do you have||? can you send a photo
hold on i gotta launch the game🙏
alright take your time (:
🥀 🥀 FWIW on the mobile ports ||the unlock indicator is the size, not if its highlighted || 
🥕 🐇
||considering you have spell twister on, i’d recommend maybe putting shaman stone on (swap out longnail and compass) (if you’re comfortable with using spells). if you’re better with nail, you could probably swap twister and compass for quick slash.||
||staying close to him also helps if you just need a general tip, he can’t do one of his attacks unless you get too far away.||
tysm :D
yw (:
wish you luck !!
Just beat the ||watcher knight|| after a few attempts I need to go for the ||dreamers|| what ones should I go for
||I'm in the queens garden rn and there's two paths I can go on the map but both of them are blocked off in game so where am I supposed to go? Do i need to explore more?||
How do I get the ||Nailmaster's glory|| charm?
It's one of the only charms left in the game for me. I kinda gave up and watched some tutorials but things aren't adding up as far I can see.
I understand that ||I meet the requirements, and have all 3 nail arts. But whenever I go meet sly, this is the only thing he says.||
Is it a glitch, or am I missing something?
That's odd
Have you rested on a bench and came back?
Yep, multiple times :/
||I don't think it's necessary for the charm, but have you bought every item from Sly?||
yes
And have you closed the game and reloaded
Pretty much! ||I've had the nail upgrades for a long time now, even defeated the Hollow Knight and got to one ending. Is there a time window or anything of that sort?||
I don't know if there's a time window, I'm not really an expert on this
But it'd be weird if there was
Fair, thanks though
How do I get to the last || Dreamer,the one in deepnest||
I'm at where I need to go
I think there is a secret wall but idk where
Nvm found it
Even though I can consistently beat ||PV||, I'm not sure how its AI works. Is it random? Does it use a specific attack at specific times based on the player's position or something similar? I know that it ||jumps if you pogo it too much||, but that's pretty much it
Is there anywhere I can learn more about bosses' AI?
what are ||wanderer’s journals|| for?
Sell them at || city of tears vendor guy ||
I need some tips for fighting || pure vessel ||
What do you struggle with specifically
I ALWAYS get messed up with || the focus attack and losing a lot of health really early ||
As soon as you see it charging it up your first instinct should be to either ||dash away or ddark for the iframes||
aight ty
|| pantheon 4 and 5 || are my absolute weak point
It might take a bit to get used to because you expect one of its other attacks, but eventually you'll get it
I struggled at ||p5|| as well
I'm trying to fight || the hollow knight|| but I don't have ||unbreakable strength|| and I need a good build and idk to go nail or ||spell||
they use it || so suddenly aswell ||
Im lucky I practised ||PV|| enough for ||p4|| that it wasn't an issue in ||p5||
If you practise it enough times you'll do it from just muscle memory
|| quick slash + steady body || and just start absolute ambushing until they’re staggered, that’s your time to || heal || also spam || abyss shriek || when they’re || stabbing their heart ||
Even if it doesn't use that attack in its first stage, you need to always be ready for it
yh
being honest every || pantheon peak boss || made me frustrated, especially || sly ||
||Sly is supposed to be easier than PV, but I've gotten more consistent with PV than Sly fr||
OH I JUST KILLED HIM 2ND TRY
So that was my first ending
Holy hell
This game
Now I just need to collect everything, ||mask shards,soul fragments and charms|| then I need to do ||grubs|| then max out my ||spells|| then do the everything with the nail
I only done 75% in 68 hours?
SOMEONE DONE 112 IN 71
Damn 😔
OHH THAT NEW MENU
I LOVE THAT
Ooooo I can change it
If nothing has forced you to use ||spells|| yet, something you have to deal with on your way to 112% definitely will
You've been able to change it
-# I personally love the ||Lifeblood|| one
I just never pressed extra
Crazy
Oh I've been using ||spells|| I just don't have them maxed out
Yup
So NOW
The game begin
But damn that ending
I wonder if the others are better
New goal!

Have fun getting [Redacted] 
All I know is that I WILL do ||PoP||
But first
I need to awaken my ||Dream nail||
I done the main 3 ||dream bosses||
I refuse to believe this game is hand drawn
what about the ||hallownest seals||?
have fun :D
Does anyone have some charm suggestions for fighting the ||Mantis Lords||
||what is this boss i need for p4?||
||Dream warrior in kingdoms edge, behind a void gate (probably an unexplored segment of the map)||
the embodiment of cancer itself
try him on ||ascended|| and you will see for yourself
yeah ngl i have seen this guys fight in ||p5|| and it looks horrible and i just fought him in ||p4|| and i still didnt like it
with floor,
he is fine
hi guys can someone help me, i've been lost and trying to go everywhere but the map isn't really helping and there's no real path to go through
Okay now even I'm confused
Whenever I see those little dots on the map it usually just means explore more
i deleted the game many times cuz of that
Go to ||Cornifer's shop in Dirtmouth.||
what dots...
the top place ?
The sketch like outline
Yeah, they sell the item which updates your ||map||.
uhhh ok || why do i sensor mostly everything ||
Yeah.
thanks 
||If you do the 3rd Colosseum trial again, will you have to defeat God Tamer again?||
yes
Yea that’s because u didn’t type the right name. Regardless, u still need to spoiler it as per channel rules
ohh it's the ||Eternal Ordeal||
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Time to beat up the dude who made all that
i feel sad... i cant do ||nkg|| now
took me 18 attempts to beat him once in ||attuned||
||sealed siblings ending acquired||
les goo 
||Am i ready for hollow knight and the radiance||
||yep u r more than ready, but please make sure to change ur charm build before u enter the fight||
Ofc i will
||i need a charm build for the hollow knight and the radiance||
what more can you even do
you are max upgraded
i guess getting ||unbreakable strenght || is an option
||I would highly recommend shaman stone and qs, then there are a few options for the rest of the notches. U can go with smth like mop + twister, or if u r willing to risk breaking ur strength (or u can go make it unbreakable), u can go for strength + twister instead. If u think u r gonna get hit often and have to heal, u can replace twister with soul catcher. Ofc u can also consider heal charms like qf and shape of unn but i would recommend going dps over healing||
I need it for both bosses
Aight bet
Guys about ||P5||. What charms do you recommend?. ||I usually running Unb.Strenght, Quickslash, mainly and the other 2 is either Shaman stone and Longnail, or Mark of pride and either Sharp shadow or soul catcher.|| These are carried me over all 4 ||Pantheons|| and never even used orher charms. But now i saw people use ||Quick Focus and deep Focus at the end of the fight against Pure vessel and Abs Rad. ||
||honestly strength + qs + shaman stone + whatever u want is enough for pv and abs rad, i mean u can use qf + df combo but that comes at the cost of significantly reducing ur dps and prolonging both fights by quite a bit. ofc the main focus of qf + df is obviously healing so dps is not really considered when u use that kind of build but it is smth to keep in mind. and its not a foolproof combo as well, u can still die if u get comboed too quickly and cant get enough heals in||
||Strength, Shaman, QS, NMG, Sbody|| all the way through
same hahaha
Sorry but What is ||NMG||? 😄
||Nail Master’s Glory||
its great for ||markoth|| and a few other bosses
Generally ||all dream warriors and some other bosses, and whenever you can start off the fight with a Nart||
Ooooooooooh.|| I tried that but it feels really awkward to hold down a button and fighting at the same time so i never even bothered with it anymore. The only place i use Nail arts is against No eyes.||
You should be using them way more often
Im not that good yet 😄 Im still struggling reacting to the moves of some bosses and the platforming without falling down during bossfights 😄 Maybe i get to the level one day when i comfortably use ||Nail arts|| in some boss fights other than ||no eyes|| 😄
||anyways just activated grimm troupe quest so nice||
||so i just gave my fragile strength charm to divine... will i get it back?||
please lmk here
||keep talking to her and she'll tell u how u can get it back||
how do i improve my reaction times in order to beat ||pure vessel||
keep in mind i have an xbox one controller in rough shape and i'm 30+ years old
oh well practice does perfect
just keep trying and if you cant beat it then find a youtube video on it
i've seen the videos, know all his attacks and have beat ||NKG, the corrupted mantis, everything except radiance||
just dont know how i can fight him since he has such short windups and is all business all the time
do i need to get an adderal script or something
lmfao
i dont know to be honest
i myself have not beaten him
but if you feel frustrated maybe take a break?
enjoy like a mango shake or something if you have that at home
that calms me down
instantly regretted ||banishing the grimm troupe when i saw my grimmchild dissapeared|| 😭
Huh
So grim child goes away if it's gone ??
theres 2 different ||endings||
just depends on what you do after ||defeating troupe master grimm||
I know that
yea
||wait guys can you fight the radiance/get the black void charm thingy and beat radience AFTER you beat the hollow knight?||
Yes
oh ight
sick
||dude i am jumping the hollow knight with unbreakable strength so badly||
but i need to farm geo
||i do colo2 repeatedly for money||
||Qslash and nail length should be enough for now. Strength is more valuable with more nail upgrades||
||i have pure nail...||
what is next? jabonquois nail like wdym
||like my build is qslash mark of pride and other things||
i just do it for fun
Practice is the only option
The telegraphs for every attack is distinct, unlike some other bosses, just learn what telegraph used for what attack and react accordingly
gotta spoiler tag ||millibelle||
because you spelled it wrong
bc you spelled it wrong
oh
hi ponder 
🦦
we can tell you when you spoiler tag the message
eh deleted it
fair enough
so can you tell me?
it’s roughly ||1.5x once you deposit a certain amount||
I'm now looking it up myself because I don't actually know lmao
it’s not consistent tho
oh ight
but the threshold is about 2k
ight ight
okay it's 1.5x plus up to 80
maffs
should be about what i need
alright banker beaten the hell out of
||unbreakable strength has been achieved. welp time to beat up the hollow knight lmfao||
welp uhm i beat the final boss
that was a bit anticlamactic
yeeeeeeeep
yknow what i got before i tried ||mantis lords?||
dawg i have like none of that lmfao
ik im missing ||grubberfly, wrath of fallen, song and grimm child, forgot what else though||
||i only have like nine notches lmfao||
im still looking for the ||stag station qwq||
of what place?
well now what should i focus on
||grimm? grubs? idk man maybe even find the white lady||
||queen's garden||
||fragile flower :3||
rn here
accidentally broke the music thing
i assume there's no way to fix it...
i understand the telegraphs i just cant respond to them fast enough
the double damage doesn't help either
oh well
just gonna try to get gud
||guys, can i get some reccomendations on what to do after beating the hollow knight? ive already opened the grimm quest and have unbreakable strength||
||look for secrets. this means stuff like getting all charms, health, soul storage. also do all the dream bosses for seer. if ur looking to 112% look up what ur missing on wiki||
||just tried markoth and i am untrying him he sucks ass||
also i am currently on 70%
|| you could try pantheons or colloseum ||
what charms should i use?
For what? Combat? Exploration?
combat
How do I backup my save file?
okay, ||u should use shaman stone, quick slash, and grubsong or steady body. if u dont use spells then u can do smth like quick slash, long nail, steady body, grubsong (or soul catcher instead of sbody + grubsong)||
||Unexplored segments of the map||
||just did soul tyrant||
You can ||do a lot better than 70%|| with what you have access to

and i got 600 essence
the nail build is peak
||cool i got the dream wielder... so what does it do?||
||and i got another soul frag||
||wait which bosses can also be dream bosses?||
||and beat lost kin||
||and dream gate achieved pog||
ooo thats cool
||dreamwielder significantly decreases the dream nail charge time and also gives double the amount of soul per dream nail compared to without dream wielder equipped. it also increases the rate of random essence drops from enemies||
oh ight but like honestly i dont even use it for soul lmfao
i just spam nail
||but hm maybe i do enraged guardian?||
i think thats the name sorry for my english
IS THERE A BENCH NEAR ||HORNET 2ND BOSSFIGHT|| SO I WONT HAVE TO TRAVEL 100000 KMS?
just before the long room that leads to her, there is a ||breakable ceiling that leads to a bench||
Bad news. They already are
Anyways. Can someone give me one of the four bindings to do on ||P3, P4 or P5? Already did all of them at once one P1 and P2||
Nail
Nail is the easiest
Already did that on ||P3 and P4||
||im trying to fight grim how do i fight him? is there anything required?||
||Dream nail and howling cliffs unlocked||
|| i have them unlocked and i already spoke to grim what do i do after?||
Ohhh. You got ||Grimm child right?||
yea
Yeah put it on
yaya i did
Find those red flames around the map
Any order. Just open the map and you should see them
ya i did
Hmm that's weird
what do they look like?
Big red flames
Your pretty sure
yea
I would double check then
i got ||grimmchild ||equipped rn
Good for ||PoP||? I need to use Better ones I think
uh guys what bosses should i beat up for essence?
||ive yet to beat failed champion||
||lost kin, soul tyrant ,failed champion and the soul warriors||
oh
||i hate deepnest and dont like markolth, REALLY dont like markolth||
||wait how much essence does the deepnest guy give?||
You don't NEED to go to ||deepnest||
I haven't beat him yet
||hiveblood isnt really all that necessary for pop. theres only one tiny section of pop that doesnt have an infinite soul totem, the rest of the sections do||
No but if you Wana awaken your ||dream nail|| you can fight all the others and the 3 main ones
I am doing ||pop||
wait wdym 3 main ones
Oh okay
The first 3 here
Yup!
double damage moment:
I went with ||lost kin|| first
||u could keep on hiveblood if u r extremely worried about the one section killing u but if u r even half good at platforming it shouldnt be too big of an issue since its like one room and u have grubsong anyways so that should alleviate some of the damage||
Okay so what should I swap ||hive blood|| for
Im on my first playthrough and have 7k geo || i bought all the stuff from vendors, gotten all nail upgrades and dropped 3 k in the fountain anything else i can use it for? ||
||You can use deep focus and grubsong! You will always have soul with that build (unless you are dying way too much and there is no totem) ||
||But there are a lot of totems in pop sooo||
I don't have ||deep focus||
Huh?
I'm the one doing ||pop||
||What is your percent of completion||
83
I know
||I thought everybody get deep focus atleast before 80%||
||I just don't explore crystal peaks (I know deep focus is there)||
||Try using life blood instead of Quick slash. I know it won't do too much but it is still a benefit, Quick slash is useless in platforming||
Okay
||2 additional hp will totally help you trust||
This is what it looks like rn
wait guys how do i get like 7 essence rn
||Wayward compass just so you don't get lost in the buzzsaws, good choice ||
||i am so close to white palace||
||that lifeblood is gonna run out within the first few attempts since there is no bench in pop||
Exactly bro ||wayward compass|| is the best charm
cmon guys where is like a tree or something
||hive||
||Have you beaten all the dream warriors||
uh no
It's close the the entrance though
||Where are you at rn, map location||
murderous bees are not my type
Markloth was kinda easy after a bit
||right next to the seer||
||sprintmaster is pretty much useless in pop, most of it is airborne. u will find more mobility out of dashmaster but that comes with its own downside of accidentally misinputting a down dash instead of a horizontal dash or pogo||
Name of the territory
||resting grounds||
Aw
Okay
||One of the closest tree is in the city of tears||
||wait i remember a tree in howling wraiths||
||You should use tram to the Forgotten Crossroads and then use the elevator to the city of tears, then there is gonna be a territory with platforms and those guardians flies, go to the right and check all the floors||
it's closer to kings
Might be a little too complicated lol
||I was doing flower quest and noticed it||
nah its ight
||stag|| to kings then go down the ||broken elevator shaft in city that leads to basin||
tree is at the bottom
||I guess cornifer knows better, choice is up to you tho||
yeah learn your place Jake the dog
🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪
dawg where tf is the tree
dawg flont its not there
DONE
||used the tree in howling wraiths||
DAWG I LACK ONE ESSENCE ARE YOU KIDDING ME
Just kill some enemies or sum
NOW i have enough
came back to the tree lmfao
omg
i just realized
||me dream gating back removes one||
i am so dumb
LOL
||my dumbass is NOT beatin white palace first try||
FINALLY I AWAKENED MY FANCY NAIL
||i need hiveblood do i||
or do i not?
idk

Racist
it's at the bottom of ||broken elevator|| to the right
silly
||hiveblood + grubsong makes it way easier||
it's the only reason I'm at 111%🥀🥀
😭
So any tips on ||pantheon 4?|| im having such a hard time with it
SHIT
||i need hive but i am already in the palace deep 😭||
and i am in the part with no soul thingies
dude i am so cooked
I GOT PAST IT
ALRIGHT
ALRIGHT
I AM AT 4 HP
Which bosses do you struggle with?
Just what i was about to say
do it it's funny
dawg i am ass at platforming
but I've also beaten celeste
i wont make it out of there playing the game
||how do i get to pantheon?||
I really want celestee
there's a breakable wall in west ||waterways||
above the ||flukemarm|| arena
uh can i have a picture perchance
like specifcally on the map
I am nowhere near my computer
awh aight
Beat Celeste in 4:30 with 850 deaths and 67 strawberries for my first run
4:30 hours?
Yeah
Thats quite fast
Damn. I did beat all of hollow knight first
i got 86%
And ||POP||
whats that?
||White palace||
It's in ||ancient basin||
Uhh ||white defender|| and soul||tyrant.|| And probably ||pure vessel.||But i havent gotten to him yet
i am genuinely crying what the fuck is wp
what the fuck is this place
ive been here for over an hour rn
and i just died
for the 7nth time
istg
What device u on
It took me a bunch of tries but its worth it
i am so fucking mad rn man
Just be patient and continue xd
ace i want to rip out my lungs and make them have cancer
For ||White Defender|| if you have either ||longnail or MoP|| equipped you can just hit him when he throws the balls without getting hit. If you don't have extra range just move slightly back every time he throws the balls and keep hitting him. You can use ||abyss shriek to destroy his balls when he jumps up from the ground.|| Additionally, during his 2nd phase go to the last place he jumped up from to avoid him because he can't jump up from the same place twice
As for ||Soul Tyrant, what do you struggle with?||
i am not patient right now
For ||soul tyrant|| i reeally hate the attack where he summons ||6 balls around him.|| when i first fought him i was to overwhelmed cus my hp was at 3 also my charms are ||unbreakable strength, MoP, longnail, quickslash||
For ||white defender|| i just keep ramming into him by accident. And hes just way to fast for me
But im getting used to him.
For the ||6 orbs just shadow dash through them when they pass and then stand still in the middle of the arena. The 2nd time they pass they can't hit you in the center||
alright i am where i once was
It took me some time to get used to him as well you're good
Does ||soul tyrant|| have a ||second phase||
Yes
yes. ||i would suggest practicing that in hog if u arent comfortable with that||
Ill probably be very low xd
Alright thank you
Any tips for ||pure vessel?|| i dont think i can handle him xd
You have to reach it first and see what you struggle with
Alright
dawg i dont want to play this game anymore
i want to die
i rather be in the warhammer 40k universe then this shit
Just pogo 😎
dawg
i am in pain
this is not to be made fun of
i am genuinely in tears like i fuckin hate this
i want to rip my skin out
just doing this i feel like a masochist
Alright im onto ||soul tyrant|| wish me luck
Chill out men 💔💔
i want to commit seppuku and wait until the creator of this idea died and then i want to murder him in the afterlife
i want him to be reincarnated into a poor african family
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
nope
i cant do this to myself
i am closing my pc
and going to bed 🙂

Anyways
I didnt have enough soul and i died 💔💔
To who?
I was about to get to ||soul tyrant|| but the ||watcher knights|| obliterated me
O
They obliterated me so brutally like 40 times in ||city of tears|| that they're easy now
I was trying to ||desolate dive so i could be invincible|| but realized i didnt have any soul and died
Lmao
Theyre pretty easy but they gang up on me while im trying to heal xd
You only heal when there's none actively attacking
Don't heal while they're after you
I see
Heal after you beat them for the next boss
Fr
Whens a good time to ||dreamnail|| them
When they spawn
I see
But personally I prefer to ||cyclone slash|| them during their spawning animation
How much damage does it do again if you have ||pure nail||
Im literally about to die again
Oops
Each hit from ||cyclone slash|| does 26 damage
And ||cyclone slash|| hits between 3 and 6 times
Meaning
I hate ||white defender|| sometimes
78-156 damage
Potentially more than ||abyss shriek with shaman stone||
Im literally just spamming my nail xd
is the rounding correct ? (not that it matters)
||Pure nail|| does 21 right
Is it useful againt ||no eyes||n she keeps teleporting away
The other ||nail arts|| are better for her
I see
well just count in amount of ||nail hit, a cyclone hit is 1.25 a normal hit, not factoring in the 1.5 buff from strength
So, it isn't that strong compared to just quick slash and strenght||
You can also ||dreamnail|| with ||dream wielder|| when the do the jump attack
I usually use ||cyclone slash|| at the start of fights
but is the rounding correct ? i dunno if it is to the nearest natural
probably is but I remember it being weirder
It instantly ||staggers Hornet 1||
Yeah I searched it up
||lost kin|| is so confusing sometimes 💔💔
Sometimes i can no hit and sometimes he just kills me
You need to be able to beat those bosses consistently before trying ||p4||
Practise in ||godhome||
||dream bosses dont scale?||

I only have 5 masks bruh 😭😭
I died instantly
Its like mostly the same except hes so fast
Xd
How do i fight him in ||godhome||
Do i need to beat him first
||once u have encountered him he is accessible in hall of gods||
||dream nail the statue of its overworld counterpart||
||flick the lever on the statue||
Oh…
It was that simple
Uhm
But what about about the ||mantis lords||
Theres no lever
||thats because u havent unlocked their second form yet. u will need to encounter them before they unlock in hall of gods||
