[ebon copper]

than ||strenght, quick slash, shamanstone, and any of these: grubsong, nail masters glory, steady body||

[mint escarp]

One issue...
||I never got unbreakable strength...||
But ig I can just ||repair it whenever it breaks||

[ebon copper]

i mean, its not gonna make or break your build, but its the best option

[dense lava]

||tbh I find PoP harder with a longer nail but that might be because I'm just used to the normal length, I always pogo into the ceiling with long nail||

[mint escarp]

Ok it was a dumb option but I started this save file so long ago I don't want to make a new one just for this 💔

[ebon copper]

you should also get the last ||charm notch|| you are missing

[mint escarp]

Ye ik

[mint escarp]

What

[dense lava]

This ||that last notch|| makes a pretty big difference

[ebon copper]

there are 11

[mint escarp]

Okay ig...
I'll look at the wiki and track down all of the locations

[knotty stratus]

maybe practice the fight beforehand, and if u feel confident, ||equip fragile strength, then u can always repair it later if it breaks||

[mint escarp]

Where would I practice it tho

[dense lava]

Just ||in the fight but you don't lose anything for dying||

Except dignity ofc lol

[knotty stratus]

||just beat the hollow knight quickly and practice radiance when u get to it. if u have all the charms and many upgrades, the hollow knight goes down pretty quick||

[median hornet]

what's this in the|| stag nest?||

sad

[dense lava]

||an old elevator maybe for the stags themselves|| I always thought

[tribal kiln]

||What is the best timing for hitting the Gruz Mother with Vengeful Spirit? I miss a lot||

[median hornet]

can i do something with it

[dense lava]

Just ||shoot when she's at the same y level as you, griz shouldn't be that hard to hit (also use the specific spell button instead of tapping the focus button||

[dense lava]

Not really

[knotty stratus]

i also find this somewhat true. ||thats why i always equip either longnail or mark of pride when i do PoP, not both. i probably shouldve mentioned the pogoing into the cieling thing beforehand i just forgot||

[median hornet]

ah okie

oohh ||the last stag's name changes to old stag||

[dense lava]

Yeah I'm just used to ||doing it with normal charms (and dash master but I'm weird like that)||

[tribal kiln]

I use controller, there is no ||specific spell button||

[mint escarp]

And yeah I died again.
If I'll just start looking for everything I'm missing (also missing a ||soul container and mask||) and then try again :/

[dense lava]

Yes there is ||I think it's RB by default||

[knotty stratus]

||just wait till she is flying slowly or close to the ground. just line yourself up with her and cast vengeful spirit||

[mint escarp]

But like, I really don't want to do ||the flower quest||

[dense lava]

Het ||your at the end (kind of) enjoy the exploration||

[mint escarp]

What does Het mean

[dense lava]

Fair also the last thing I need ||to get full completion on my steel soul lol||

[mint escarp]

I can't type today sorry 😭

[dense lava]

Was supposed to be hey 😭

[mint escarp]

Oh okay

[tribal kiln]

You mean ||quick cast||?

[dense lava]

My dutch keyboard autocorrect decided on het

[dense lava]

Ye

[knotty stratus]

i never use ||dashmaster in PoP because you will mostly be dashing in air and the mothwing cloak cooldown doesn't really matter when ur in air. i recommended dashmaster as a charm to use in PoP to one of my friends by accident, so i had to sit in a call with them raging over the fact that they kept accidentally dashing downwards on the final few rooms, and by that point, it was too late for them to back out and unequip it 😭 ||

[dense lava]

Yeah ||it's DEFINITELY not recommended I just find it funny to do down dashes in some parts, doing it with sharp shadow is also a funny challenge (but absolutely not recommended)||

[knotty stratus]

||sharp shadow path of pain is absolutely wild but also valid||

[dense lava]

Makes everything harder tbh ||except the last room is actually very doable with it if you're used to SS||

[knotty stratus]

||i love sharp shadow everywhere else, but i feel more used to regular dash, especially in PoP where in many rooms u cant overshoot a dash and have to be very tight and precise in your movement||

[mint escarp]

How do you unlock the treasure chest underneath ||the king's station stag||

[dense lava]

Honestly I really get thrown of by || sharp shadow even in combat, I just find it funny in PoP||

[dense lava]

My mind is blanking on that for a second ngl

Can't even remember what it looks like damn

[mint escarp]

No worries

[knotty stratus]

||just go underneath the small tiny room with the treasure chest and keep bonking your head on the cieling until u find the tight entrance to the room||

[mint escarp]

Are you for real

[knotty stratus]

||or if u wanna be cool about it, equip gathering swarm and mark of pride, then hit the chest through the wall, and the money will come flying at u||

[mint escarp]

That is SO stupid

[dense lava]

||hidden entrances|| are pretty common in HK

[knotty stratus]

does that mean u found it?

[mint escarp]

Yes, but I thought there'd be a switch like in ||queens station||

[dense lava]

At least ||that one has a visualisation that there is something to find, there's some worse ones lol||

[mint escarp]

😭

[knotty stratus]

||lmao nah||

[mint escarp]

Anyways thx.

[dense lava]

That did not need to be spoilered ||lmao||

[knotty stratus]

idk man that one was pretty bad i cnt think of any worse ones rn

[knotty stratus]

i did it for the funny

[dense lava]

At least|| you know there is something there, I never found the entrance at dash master on my own NGL||

[knotty stratus]

which one?

[dense lava]

||the path on the left of dash master to Beretta I believe||

[knotty stratus]

||oh the breakable wall||

[dense lava]

Yeah

[knotty stratus]

||idk how i got stuck on this one, but outside of the crossroads stag. there is a grub with a breakable wall, and i was stuck in that room for like 5 minutes trying to search for the grub while trying to listen to the noises it makes to see if i was getting closer (apparently i mustve been new to breakable walls in hk)||

[dense lava]

Lmao I know what ur talking about

[tribal kiln]

||How to reach the light at the top of the ancestral mound? I almost reached there but I am one or two tiles away||

[knotty stratus]

i think i know what ur talking about but just to make sure, can i see it and also how far r u into the game

[tribal kiln]

||Ancestral Mound pre-False Knight, Sly moved in||

||The room with the lifeblood cocoon and the soul statue thing||

[knotty stratus]

1. id probably put a spoiler on that
2. maybe exiting the game and re-entering will fix that

[spiral pumice]

im thinking a mod maybe did it

[knotty stratus]

||ok yeah i know what ur talking about. lets just say ur very early game and u wont be able to acess it until later||

[spiral pumice]

cuz its not like it in the godhome mode

[tribal kiln]

Ah ok

[knotty stratus]

it probably was a mod because ive never seen that happen before. other than telling u to exit and re-enter the game, idk what to do

[spiral pumice]

im just gonna try reobtaining it cuz it might think its the prior version

[dense lava]

yea u should really put a spoiler on that

[spiral pumice]

how do i put spoiler?

[dense lava]

by clicking the eye before uploading a picture

[knotty stratus]

click on the image before u send it, and press on "mark as spoiler" (on mobile at least)

[dense lava]

(or just delete that picture for now)

[knotty stratus]

if not on mobile do this

[median hornet]

how do I go up

[hoary summit]

||are you in water ways?||

[median hornet]

yea

||the portal from city to waterway||

[hoary summit]

||going to dung defender||

[median hornet]

some|| lady's room||

[hoary summit]

||isma||

[median hornet]

i went there

got the|| tear||

[hoary summit]

have oh ok

then go downwards

[neat karma]

Please spoiler tag this

[median hornet]

||acid with a lot of pufferfish?||

[hoary summit]

happy?

[hoary summit]

do you want to exit this place??

[neat karma]

Thank you

[hoary summit]

welcome

[hoary summit]

my bad sorry

[median hornet]

i wanna go to that top way

[hoary summit]

what will you do there there,s nothing

[digital kite]

how can i cancel ||the c dash||

[median hornet]

jump

[neat karma]

||press the jump button or the cdash one i believe||

[digital kite]

||in the charging animation||

[hoary summit]

||by pressing tha agaain c dash||

[median hornet]

huh? i meant the way just above me
there are places left to be explored

[digital kite]

ok

[median hornet]

oh that works too?

[shut sparrow]

once the ||cdash is fully charged you can't cancel it||

[hoary summit]

have you opened the ||tram||

then you can reach it

because i think its blocked

let me check myself

[median hornet]

there's a ||tram in waterways?||

[hoary summit]

no

in the ||kingdom's edge||

[median hornet]

no i haven't been there yet

[hoary summit]

ok let me see if it opened

[digital kite]

||if i leave the white palace does the progress save?||

[acoustic sigil]

The levers you flicked will stay flicked, but you'll be put back on the bench

[digital kite]

||the doors with the glowing "keys" stay opened?||

[acoustic sigil]

Yes

[knotty stratus]

certain parts save ||the levers u pull and the glowing key doors save and certain rooms will be closed off if u made it far enough. until around the final 2 benches, things stop saving and if u leave, u just respawn on one of the benches||

[digital kite]

thank team cherri

[digital kite]

ok

[median hornet]

why is ||the collector|| so freaky 😭😭

[knotty stratus]

thats just how he is

[dense lava]

you ||found him in a room with pillows you entered with a "LOVE KEY"|| he is freaked to the max

[radiant raft]

Blame ||Love Key bug|| they were the one that taught him everything

[dense lava]

i fear for ||what the grubs saw, they must be traumatized||

[sinful vortex]

yall here are my ||charms, map and inventory, im kinda lost and not sure where to go from here, any tips?||

[median hornet]

lmao

[acoustic sigil]

||I'd look around in kingdom's edge more|| Or ||go to the masks on your map||

[median hornet]

||MY SHADE IS IN A JAR||

[sinful vortex]

||also when will she wake up she's been asleep for a while now||

[sinful vortex]

should i ||go to the one in city of tears first? i hate deepnest so much||

[acoustic sigil]

Sure

It doesn't really matter

[dense lava]

you can either explore ||to the unknown to the left, or to the masks on your map||

[sinful vortex]

like

||WHAT BLACK MAGIC DID TEAM CHERRY DO TO MAKE YOU FEEL ON EDGE 95% OF THE TIME IN DEEPNEST||

[sinful vortex]

which unknown?

[dense lava]

you'll ||need to get both eventually, but you can do them in any order||

[dense lava]

the ||kingdoms edge|| still has some secrets 🙃

[sinful vortex]

ah that, ig ill explore it a bit more

||also in kingdom's edge, i found this like tower of love||

||how do i open the door in there||

[dense lava]

there is ||a special key for that||

[dense lava]

in ||another place you haven't found yet||

[median hornet]

any tips on how to beat|| the collector?||

[sinful vortex]

is it ||in fog canyon or queens garden? ive been to those areas but havent gotten the map for them yet||

[dense lava]

||it's hidden in QG yeah||

[sinful vortex]

alr

[median hornet]

how do I hit him he's jumping around

[knotty stratus]

||since he wont give u soul, kill the enemies for soul and save it for healing if u know u will take a lot of damage. whenever he gets knocked down, u can dreamnail him for some soul. if ur nail is upgraded enough, u can one shot the enemies he sends out, and keep ur distance if u wanna heal. other than that just make a good cham loadout (maybe focusing on the nail) and have fun||

[sinful vortex]

||also are my current charms good? im using this rn||

[knotty stratus]

just time ur attacks when he lands

[knotty stratus]

pretty solid

[dense lava]

||definetly good enough||

[sinful vortex]

||should i replace the nail arts charm with grubsong or nah||

||they both seem good to me||

[median hornet]

what c||harms|| should I use?

[knotty stratus]

what ||charms|| do u have again?

[dense lava]

if you like ||nail arts|| the|| nail mpaster charm|| is vbery good, ||grubsing|| is just a filler for most ppl

[sinful vortex]

alr, ||nailmaster it is then||

[knotty stratus]

btw what ||spells|| do u have?

[median hornet]

||black vengeance spirit, downsmash||

[sinful vortex]

ALSO

||SINCE WHEN TF WAS SLY THE GREAT NAILSAGE||

||HOW DID HE EVEN MANAGE TO PICK THAT GIANT ASS NAIL UP||

[knotty stratus]

i reccomend ||shaman stone since shade soul is useful in getting rid of many enemies at once, mark of pride so u hit collector easier, and spell twister so u dont use up too much soul with spells||

[knotty stratus]

peak hollow knight right there

[dense lava]

He's just ||that skillful, you should be glad he is a shopkeeper and not you enemy XD (idk how he holds a nail NGL)||

Or ||he's just a fraud lmao||

[sinful vortex]

also is the ||corpse near the nail dash guy actually alive? cause i can dream nail it and it gives a dialogue on that||

[dense lava]

A lot of ||dead or even not alive things in hollow knight have dream nail dialogue (lots of corpses and some statues)||

[knotty stratus]

||a lot of corpses in the game give dream nail dialogue. if u see a corpse laying there theres a chance u can dream nail it||

[sinful vortex]

ah alright

[tribal kiln]

||What does this room with the guard husk do?||

[dense lava]

||firstle isn't that an unoficial pirated verion? socond does nothing just holds a grubby boy||

[tribal kiln]

||Ah ok||

[dense barn]

please purchase the game somewhere is you are going to play it on this unofficial mobile port

[tribal kiln]

I'll try to as soon as I can

[dense lava]

yea this, nothing wrong with playing a port as long as you are supporting the devs the same as anyone else.

[tribal kiln]

As soon as I have a working pc

[dense lava]

it's more just having bought the game, that way you aren't fully pirating

[frank girder]

Spoiler of the final boss don't open it if you didn't reach it
||is it normal that after i killed the radiance i don't hear any music at all? Like i went to godhome to fight grimm but i don't hear the fight soundtrack, nor any music from the game at all||

Help please💔🥀

Yes i checked the sound from the options all at 10

[radiant raft]

That’s a bug

Do you have any mods?

[frank girder]

Nope

[dense lava]

definetly a bug, did u restart your game already?

[frank girder]

Ig ill just reinstall the game

[frank girder]

Yup

[dense lava]

hm never head of that bug

[frank girder]

Ill just reinstall😭

[digital kite]

||path of pain wasnt that bad||

[dense barn]

yeah its just time consuming

[digital kite]

||but path of pain was the way for kings soul right||

[dense barn]

oh no

[digital kite]

that means it wasnt?

[undone jacinth]

||that was just the path to the throne room for kingsoul
Path of pain is through a breakable wall near the main middle section bench before elevator||

[digital kite]

damn

[undone jacinth]

||after the bench above elevator
There a long vertical shaft before another bench which has saws on sides and the mobs floating in between
You don't need to go up that path
It's just at the starting of that path to the left||

You can ask if you don't find it

[digital kite]

and what do i get for doing it¿

[undone jacinth]

||nothing essentially
It's much harder than the basic path
And you get like a useless optional vague journal entry
And a 5 or 10 second vague cut scene||

[digital kite]

ah

well i gtg for a while
wish me luck

[undone jacinth]

Good luck

[dense lava]

||POM POM PUDUDUDUDUDUDUDUDUUU POM POM, POM POM (etc etc XD)||

[digital kite]

its so hard

[dense lava]

Focus on ||learning how to deal with every attack, and get damage during the safe ones (beam attack for example)||

[digital kite]

||hornet saying "get good" before radiance is so nerve racking||

[dense lava]

If it helps ||canonically it's "gek tuu"|| lol

[unreal oriole]

yo guys

[dense lava]

Yo

[unreal oriole]

Cool that you got 109%

[digital kite]

is there any kind of marker to know if i got to like 50% of its hp?

[dense lava]

Trying to remember what 2 I missed (actively working on one already)

[digital kite]

like in|| nkg?||

[dense lava]

Uhhhhhhh you'll ||she has very clear 3 fases||

[dense lava]

Spoilers 🙃

[digital kite]

wdym

[unreal oriole]

I only got 84 %

[dense lava]

||nkg||

[digital kite]

its spoilered

[dense lava]

Bruh some just aren't showing up for me then sry

[digital kite]

dwai

[dense lava]

I've done 112 like 3 times already

[unreal oriole]

Cool, i only got 1 ending

[dense lava]

I mean u do what u want ||I've gotten all of them like 2/3 times I think||

[unreal oriole]

ok

[digital kite]

what does the pasta mean???

[livid shoal]

Did you mod your game

[digital kite]

yes

[livid shoal]

That's what it is

[digital kite]

why the pasta tho

[livid shoal]

To let you know that your game is modded

Also pasta

[fluid marten]

I have no idea where this came from in my modded Hollow Knight, but after a while I saw it's a prevalent issue, does anyone know any information? Where it derives from how it functions

[dense lava]

definetly comes from a mod, look through what you have installed and see what could cause it (in mod settings or ur modloader)

[fluid marten]

i have, and nothing refers to spells

should I send my modlist?

[dense lava]

spoiler that there ae a bunch of spoilers in there

[fluid marten]

wha

oh..

[inner robin]

Ask in #1057825333841240104

[dense lava]

and tbh i'm not that familiar with mods except for the really known ones

[fluid marten]

ok will do

[frank girder]

||grim is a she? Well ik that this thing gave us it's child but it looks like a male idk||

[inner robin]

Remember to give all the relevant information in your post! (Listed in the support FAQ)

[dense lava]

||grim is genderless afaik that was refering to radiance, who is refered to as a woman in some dialogue i think||

[frank girder]

Ohhhhhh

That helped tbh

Ty

[dense lava]

np

tbh ||i'm not sure if any grim/radiance have 100% confirmed genders ||

[frank girder]

In the past i heard that ||the radiance is a she or smth and im just going with it, sounds better for me personally tbh||

[dense lava]

yea same, all i know is ||thk and the knight (and all other vessels) are genderless and that the white lady well.... lady XD||

[frank girder]

THE LAST PART KILLED ME

[dense lava]

i am a master of the funny

[half hornet]

huh.

[dense lava]

||it's a lighthouse, the dead bug used to be the operator of it||

[dense lava]

or what's ur question?

[livid shoal]

How tf are you posting a photo as a New Knight

[grand tapir]

Everyone can post pictures in this channel, regardless of role status

[livid shoal]

Well that's new

[half hornet]

am i supposed to sum here

[livid shoal]

You already did

[dense lava]

||if you hit the lever that's all you can do, now figure out what the lighthouse was shining the light on||

[half hornet]

also

ohk

OOOO

ok got it

||arcane egg||?

[median hornet]

how to beat|| hornet second time||

[half hornet]

oh thats pretty easy actually

[dense lava]

go to ||lemm, he has something to say about those||

[dense lava]

the ||get gud boss, depends on how earlie you got there it's a pretty big jump in difficulty but doable once you get used to her speed||

[median hornet]

||she's like 10x faster than before||

and the|| spikes ||are so annoying

[dense lava]

you can deal with those ||by shooting a fireball pretty easily||

[dense lava]

more like ||2/3 X||

[median hornet]

ohh

[grim kelp]

any tips on radiant markoth? ive been stuck on it for so long 😭

[dense lava]

1st of all spoiler tags, second ||some people like keeping soul to nuke his second phase, some like using gruberflies ellegy it's a tough one||

[grim kelp]

ight thx ill try both of them

LMAO i did it second try

[dense lava]

||spell go brrrrr||

[inner robin]

Spoiler tag this please

[frank girder]

||Where do i find nkg in the godhome💔
I only have the normal grimm||

[round pier]

did u finish ||grimm troupe||

[frank girder]

Yup

[dense lava]

spoiler tagss

[frank girder]

Oh mb mb

[round pier]

||dream nail the grimm statue||

[frank girder]

DANG?

[dense lava]

if you ||banished the troup you might have to first get to him in p4 i'm not sure tho||

[frank girder]

I never thought of this

Ty bro

[round pier]

No

I dont think so

[dense lava]

sry sry

[round pier]

||every statue that has that thing the grimm statue has can be dream nailed||

[dense lava]

yea no ||i assumed that the dream nail symbol wasn't showing up for them at the statue||

[real grove]

||hello! doing a rerun where I try to do stuff earlier than I should be able to. I'm wondering if its possible to get to sheo with only the dash and mantis claw? the starting part seems too far but knowing hollow knight, there's gotta be some other way to reach||

[stoic cedar]

sorry, should be tagged now!

[sinful vortex]

man we REALLY need the spoiler bot to come back

[dense lava]

I think|| that that is one you need C-dash for tbh, well ofcourse with menu storage not but I think you mean without major glitches||

[sinful vortex]

||are there only 3 warrior dreams, the only ones ive encountered so far are the howling cliffs one, the one in fungal wastes and the one in resting grounds, i havent seen any others pop up on the map||

[dense lava]

||there's a few more scattered around, some require other items to reach tho||

[sinful vortex]

ah alright

||also any tips for the warrior dream in fungal wastes, he's VERY annoying to fight||

[dense lava]

There are ||7|| total if you want to know

[sinful vortex]

aight

[real grove]

||yeah aiming for no major glitches, I thought maybe a shade skip could work but the shade spawns so close to the start that you dont get much distance. Thanks anyway tho dude!||

[dense lava]

Yeah ||elder hu is annoying, mostly just take your time hit him when you can, if he is fully of screen dodge the attack as fast as you can and then you can heal once or twice||

[dense lava]

Yeah ||I think that is honestly the hardest one to sequence break||

[sinful vortex]

alright

||should i try to shade soul multihit or use howling wraiths if im using spells||

||cause ik descending dark will NOT be hitting him at all||

[dense lava]

You can do both || shade soul is more consistent tho but a wraith can deal biiiiiig damage||

[sinful vortex]

alr

[dense lava]

You could technically|| use D Dark to dodge the whole screen attack if you're struggling with that||

[stoic cedar]

||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uoaeiiaNUQ this is for the initial shade skip to get past that huge gap. the rest of the gauntlet shouldnt be too bad compared to the start||

[dense lava]

Oooh that's kinda sick that it's doable

[stoic cedar]

||if u have vs itll also make it a bit more lenient since u can do fireball stalls at the end||

[sinful vortex]

wdym

[dense lava]

|| Ddark give you enough invincibility frames to not have to dodge his attacks if you time it right I'm pretty sure, tho just dodging is better I think||

Damnit missed the second | when typing

[sinful vortex]

oh damn it has iframes

[dense lava]

It has a bunch lol

As a wise man once said:

||Why are you dying ☠️ to bosses 👨🏼? You should just be using descending dark 🕶. Descending ⬇️ dark 🕶️ gives you iframes 👀 which stop 🛑 you taking damage 😔. It also does a🅰️🅰️ lot of damage 😢. Stop 🛑 dying ☠️ to video 📻📻👾 game 👾 bosses 👨🏼 and just use descending ⬇️ dark 🌑||

[sinful vortex]

also question

||does dd deal more dmg if i use it at a higher height||

||cause when i use it for dmg i just high jump + monarch wings then use it||

[sly rune]

TRUE.

[sly rune]

No.

[ebon copper]

no

[sinful vortex]

oh

[ebon copper]

tho, there is initial contact dmg, so hitting the enemy with the ||dive|| before hitting the ground does deal extra dmg

[sinful vortex]

ah alr

[stoic cedar]

||this does give u a tiny bit more of iframes than compared to using it on the ground since u have iframes while u r diving down, and the higher u r, the more u spend diving down. but in terms of damage nothing is affected, there are two hitboxes for desolate dive and they are set values no matter how u do it||

[ebon copper]

damn, achow must be giving a prophecy

ye, right

i wonder whats the theoritical max number of hits ||ddark|| can do

[mellow vigil]

4

[ebon copper]

like if you hit an ememy like ||soul master||, who can tp forward, getting 6 may be doable

[simple island]

I think you can|| ddark on flukemarm|| on a pixel that kills her in one cast
so
a lot

[ebon copper]

i also wonder if each of the dmg hitboxes for ||shriek are lingering ones||

[simple island]

at least it worked on a patch at some point

[ebon copper]

i see, i see

[mellow vigil]

Im pretty sure that’s been patched

[simple island]

probable
but it was a thing at some point

[ebon copper]

i mean, 5 is for sure possible with ||soul tyrant||

[real grove]

WOAH ||thank you so much dude!! So cool that its actually possible, Imma give the spin around the shade strat a go now. Cheers 🍻||

[ebon copper]

if all the separate hitboxes for ||shriek linger, that would mean that in theory you can get more than 4 hits||

thatd be pretty cool

[mellow vigil]

|| Maybe 6 with platform phase absrad but I don’t know if the teleport spots line up for that ||

[ebon copper]

true, tho, i think bosses like yet again ||soul tyrant or no eyes|| would work too

[obtuse lark]

Okay, so pogo seems to be working pretty well for ||Trial of the Warrior|| although those stupid freaking ||Primal Aspids|| keep wrecking my rhythm 😭 I keep trying to hit them with ||Shade Soul|| but I'm terrible at aiming

[prime horizon]

I think you meant satan

[dense lava]

Yeah just practice on ||shooting the ASSspids instantly||

[prime horizon]

||asspids|| is so real

[dense lava]

Yeah, this is just on the save I have rn, I did it once but Lost the save

Now I need to figure out what I missed lol

[prime horizon]

Oh 😦

There's a website for figuring out what u don't have

It's like hk checklist or smt

[dense lava]

Yeah ik

[obtuse lark]

I love what you called them. That's real. Yeah, having problems shooting them, ||especially with a bunch of the platforms in the way sometimes||

[terse flare]

If if kill ||NKG|| while not having his ||journal entry||, in ||godhome||, will I get its ||hunters journal entry||?

[tardy sphinx]

does anyone know why i didnt get the achievment?

[digital kite]

the

[amber perch]

did you get an ending after getting 100%?

[tardy sphinx]

im doing it right now i think thats it ty

[somber crater]

Hello, I'm not sure if this is allowed here. But maybe someone knows a ||mod for a health bar for bosses||. It's very hard without her.

[obtuse lark]

I have a question that may or may not make me angry for it to be answered. Was the two ||Gruz Mothers|| the ending of the ||Trial of Warriors||?

Because I died

😭

[amber perch]

yes there is, download the ||lumafly|| mod manager from the pins in #modding-discussion, then install the enemy hp bar mod

[amber perch]

yeah that's the last wave

[somber crater]

Thanks

[obtuse lark]

Bro, I'm going to try it one more time, can't believe I died right at the end. They weren't giving me much time to heal

[amber perch]

yeah, just focus on dodging rather than healing

your soul is better used for ||spells|| so you can hit both at the same time sometimes

[obtuse lark]

I just kept pogoing off of them, I beat it after only four tries! Heck yeah

Which means that was probably the easiest ||trial||

[amber perch]

nice gg

[undone jacinth]

Do ||i need anything other than dreamers for the ending without voidheart ?
Like kingsoul etc||

[acoustic sigil]

No

[obtuse lark]

Okay so I'm attempting ||Trial of the Conquerer|| and I keep dying to that ||ginormous flea mf when the arena gets narrowed|| are there any tips or tricks y'all use for this one in particular?

[undone jacinth]

||jumping guy?||

[obtuse lark]

Yes

They all need to die atp

[undone jacinth]

||honestly I can't remember
I just mindlessly try to spam
When i have more space i kind of keep walking and when it lands near me i turn around and hit it and resume walking, repeat
But for the narrow one i try to dash away to avoid it and get in a hit before it moves in again
But this may not be reliable .... I myself was at a point where i could tank it||

[empty sable]

If you mean the ||jumping bug|| then just try to keep moving left and right while slashing or up slashing at it

[obtuse lark]

Okay, I shall try these things

Thank you

[empty sable]

I could record a vid

[empty sable]

What charms you using?

[primal ibex]

You can also try using ||Desolate Dive/Descending Dark||

[obtuse lark]

Okay, so I'm currently using ||Quick Slash, Quick Focus, Mark of Pride, and Grubsong|| I keep trying to pogo

[empty sable]

Have you beaten the game yet

[obtuse lark]

I have ||Shade Soul, Desolate Dive, and Howling Wraiths||

[obtuse lark]

No I have not

[empty sable]

Have you been to ||the hive? ||

[obtuse lark]

Yes

[empty sable]

Do you have the charm?

[obtuse lark]

Do you think I should use that one?

Yes

[empty sable]

Instead of quick focus

[obtuse lark]

Ahhh

[empty sable]

I can show you me beating it

[obtuse lark]

But I keep getting hit very fast by all the other things

[primal ibex]

There can be quite a bit of time

[empty sable]

Stalwart or SS

[shut sparrow]

please use spoiler tags in this channel || like this ||

[shut sparrow]

you shouldn't

[primal ibex]

||shaman|| costs 3 tho

[empty sable]

Sorry, didn’t realize it was that much of a spoiler, didn’t think it needed to be covered

[obtuse lark]

I have ||ten notches|| rn

[shut sparrow]

the spoiler rules are explained in the pins so make sure to read them

[shut sparrow]

this also needs tags

[obtuse lark]

Shoot, sorry

I fixed

[primal ibex]

How many ||nail arts|| do you have

[obtuse lark]

||three|| but I really don't like using them

[empty sable]

I don’t think he needs to use those

[shut sparrow]

||generally for the colosseum charms that affect the nail only aren't great. So things like mark of pride and quick slash I would take out.
Quick focus is fine and grubsong is great. You mainly wanna focus on soul and spells since they are very strong for multiple enemies. So use charms that increase your spell damage or help you with soul gain/usage||

[primal ibex]

They are pretty good in ||colosseum||

[shut sparrow]

||nailarts are awesome for the colosseum. I really recommend getting used to them||

[obtuse lark]

I added ||shaman stone and soul catcher||

[primal ibex]

Btw visit the shopkeeper in ||dirtmouth||

[shut sparrow]

that's great

[empty sable]

|| Quick slash + steady body || can help for gathering soul

[shut sparrow]

this also needs tags

[primal ibex]

||Soul catchers|| not that good

[obtuse lark]

I have one notch empty

[shut sparrow]

it is

[shut sparrow]

can you share your charms?

[obtuse lark]

I like it

[primal ibex]

||Nailmaster’s Glory||

[shut sparrow]

||it's not very efficient since the enemies move around a lot and don't have that much hp. If you want soul using soul charms is better||

[shut sparrow]

||yeah add nailmaster's glory||

[obtuse lark]

Ughhhh, fiiiinnneeee

[empty sable]

Bruh it’s literally the first place in the game. So does any place, even if it’s right at the start of the game, need to be covered?

[primal ibex]

They deal twice as much damage

[shut sparrow]

||also you can try using shape of unn instead of quick focus. It's usually better imo. With the additional notch you could then also fit spell twister instead of grubsong||

[amber perch]

what happened to the bot here

[shut sparrow]

again please read the pins. Everything except for the things mentioned there needs tags

[shut sparrow]

KarK seems to have removed it but idk why

[empty sable]

Ok I did read them but I didn’t know it was that harsh

[obtuse lark]

So what exactly does ||Shape of Unn|| do? I haven't used it at all yet

[shut sparrow]

||it enables you to move around while healing||

[obtuse lark]

Ahhhj

[dense lava]

Okay NGL saying|| slug is better than qf is crazy, quick focus is probable better for the colo is you need it||

[shut sparrow]

nothing is harsh here

[empty sable]

||you can move around||

[shut sparrow]

what's your argument?

[primal ibex]

||And smaller hitbox||

[dense lava]

That the few good uses it has ||aren't in the coloseums||

[obtuse lark]

I personally like healing faster more than moving while healing

[dense lava]

This is the way

[shut sparrow]

that's not an argument

[dense lava]

||will say, slug is really fkn funny||

[empty sable]

I’ll make a vid of me beating it, if that’s allowed? @shut sparrow ?

[dense lava]

Just ||getting double healing speed vs being able to sometimes get a heal of isn't worth it, one heal with qf is still easier than a slug heal||

[dense lava]

Imo ofc it's not a competitive game

[obtuse lark]

Okay, I'm going to try using ||Grubsong, Quick Focus, Shaman Stone, Soul Catcher, and Nailmaster's Glory||

[dense lava]

(||and qf is a little easier to use I think||)

[shut sparrow]

if the video doesn't show anything they don't know about ||(such as new charms, more hp, more notches etc)|| it's fine ig

[primal ibex]

Pretty good

[obtuse lark]

And if I don't like the setup, I can always change it. I still suck at using the ||Nail arts|| but if I practice, maybe. I'm just going to keep forgetting which direction to point

[empty sable]

Ok, I’ll send it to you, and then tell me if It’s ok.

[dense lava]

Tbh with those ||it's about knowing when it can one shot something and how wide they are||

[obtuse lark]

I keep forgetting I'm supposed to hold the button down 😭

[dense lava]

Fairrr

[primal ibex]

You’ll get used to it, don’t worry

[obtuse lark]

Alright, I'm going to attempt it once with these, then figure out if I can do a better charm combo if it doesn't seem to be working

[empty sable]

With||NmG|| it takes less time to ||charge||

[obtuse lark]

Is it easy to try and pogo the ||jumping flea guy||

He took all my lives 😭

[primal ibex]

Not really, try saving soul just before that and spamming ||dive||

[empty sable]

I don’t think so, I’ve never tried it but I don’t think you have enough time to get high enough

[obtuse lark]

Ahh, okay

[dense lava]

||my strategy is to move underneath him every jump and just go for one nail hit every bounce||

[shut sparrow]

||so firstly quick focus doesn't double your healing speed nor is it even close to it.
Secondly this isn't about how easy it is to use but how big the advantage you get from it is. In this case it's fairly close so it is indeed subjective. I personally find shape of unn better and you seem to find quick focus better (although I doubt you've really tried it too much in the colosseum).
Both charms fulfill a similar role - creating healing opportunities that weren't there before.
While quick focus increases the healing speed by 33% which can enable you to heal before you get hit shape of unn let's you dodge attacks to get more time to heal.
Both based on this and my experience I find shape of unn's ability to dodge attacks more helpful in this case since the time from dodging an entire attack usually leads to more than 33% additional time to heal.
It is ok if you have a different opinion though||

[empty sable]

I don’t know if you know this or not but ||HW/DD|| grants ||I-frames||

[primal ibex]

It’s at a narrow place so it’ll be hard to do that

[empty sable]

Not while in the air tho,

Does anyone know what I can do to beat ||The Watcher Knights||?

[empty sable]

Or help?

[obtuse lark]

Yeah, I still can't get past that part, I can't dodge

I don't have any room to

[empty sable]

I say use ||stalwart shell|| and just whammy him if you can’t dodge him. Or use ||sharp shadow||

[shut sparrow]

||try using a lot of spells. Specifically dive. Also note that they can't roll if when they are off screen. So when both are off screen it is a good time to heal||

[undone jacinth]

||any tips for eternal ordeal
Im getting beat||

[shut sparrow]

which charms are you using

[obtuse lark]

I don't have ||Sharp Shadow||

idk if this is the right channel, but im trying to remove all my steam achievements from hollow knight both on steam and in-game, but i cannot get it to work. deleting reg editor for hk doesnt change anything, and in steam console it says "failed" but idk why.. could someone help?

[acoustic sigil]

?tag registry

Clearing HK Registry Data

This is useful for fixing some uncommon game behaviors, more commonly associated with playing on older patches. Warning: Doing this will reset your local game achievements, including your ability to start a Steel Soul and Godseeker save.

• Guide on SRC (includes screenshots):
• Text steps:
  1. Press the WindowsKey + R at the same time to bring up the "Run" window, then enter regedit and press Enter.
  2. Navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team Cherry, then right-click on the folder, and select "Delete".

[acoustic sigil]

Assuming you did this correctly

[native cradle]

yeah so id did that, yet it still shows the achievements i got in game, so im confused lol

[acoustic sigil]

Then you can try using the Hollow Knight Achievement Manager mod

Can be found on lumafly etc

[native cradle]

does that also resolve the issue on steam?

[shut sparrow]

||alright that's great. Make sure to primarily stay on one side of the arena only switching sides if it gets too stressful on your side.
Don't use many spells. Only an occasional dive for the iframes or a fireball to get rid of the soul zotes if necessary.
Generally only focus down the soul zotes and sometimes the heavy jumping zotes that create small shockwaves.||

[acoustic sigil]

Uh it should sync them with steam but idk about solving an error

[native cradle]

guess we'll find out lol, cheers. will report back in a bit if it worked

[empty sable]

@shut sparrow ?

[shut sparrow]

what is that image?

[empty sable]

My charms

I’m using

[shut sparrow]

or for ||watcher knights|| mb

[empty sable]

Yeah

[shut sparrow]

||yeah so shaman stone of course is great. Soul eater is alright but almost always soul catcher + spell twister instead is simply better for the same cost. Flukenest I would just get rid of it's usually not great and sprintmaster is ok but there are better options. I'd use quick slash + steady body instead. Steady body really is great for this fight but if you don't like it you can use grubsong as well. If you want you can also use shape of unn in place of catcher or twister or quickfocus instead of catcher/twister and grubsong/steady body.

Also note that when entering the arena before going further and starting the fight you can get soul with your dream nail on all the sleeping knights||

[empty sable]

I’m

Autocorrect

[languid vale]

any tips on ⬛⬛ ?

[obtuse lark]

Okay! I beat the ||Trial of the Conquerer|| finally!

[burnt valley]

||can someone tell me which charms im missing and where to get them? other than greed.||

[sly rune]

You get the one is the first row by saving every ||grub||.

The first one in the second row is bought from ||Leg Eater||.

The second one in the second row is found in ||Kingdom's Edge. You need to Dive through a floor near next to Oro's training dummy and explore the area you unlock||.

I don't remember the ones in the third and fourth rows.

[burnt valley]

ok thx tho

[sly rune]

Ok, both the charms in the third and fourth rows are found in ||Greenpath||.

One is found if you go inside the ||Lake of Unn||.

Thw other is located near the first bench you come across, I am pretty sure.

[languid vale]

yeah its near a || thorn parkour section||

[sly rune]

Yeah.

[obtuse lark]

Okay, so I'm trying a spell based build when fighting ||hornet the second time|| the only thing that keeps messing me up ||are those dumb spikes||

[dense lava]

You can ||just vengeful spirit the spikes when they appear||

[obtuse lark]

Ohhh

I feel dumb

Lmfaooo

[dense lava]

Nahhh is fine

[burnt valley]

with || spells || i would use a lot of || Down spell || especially if u have || descending dark||

[dull venture]

How do I make ||hornet|| appear in the hollow knight fight

[dense lava]

||there's a bunch of stuff you need to do, start with exploring to the right of the city of tears||

[obtuse lark]

I only have the first thing, it hasn't been upgraded yet

[burnt valley]

you need bothhalves of the || kingoul charm ||

[dull venture]

Have that, thats it?

[dull venture]

I have ||void heart||

[dense lava]

If you have ||any void upgraded speels use those as much as possible||

[burnt valley]

and then you take it to || birthplace in the abyss || to get || voidheart ||

[dull venture]

And I just enter the fight as normal right

[dense lava]

Then normally she should already be there

[burnt valley]

idk why || hornet || isnt there then if u have it

[dull venture]

Ok

[dense lava]

||if she's standing outside of the black egg temple she will join the fight||

[dull venture]

Im gonna go check tomorrow gn chat

[dense lava]

Gngn

[obtuse lark]

Okay, ||hornet has been defeated||

I'm slowly grinding my way through beating this damn game

[digital kite]

||should i grind beating radiance or sly?||

[spice lodge]

||somehow my crossroads became infected. im trying to get down to the guy that sells the charms to by a charm notch, but i cant break the orange bubbles blocking the way. do i need another ability to pass those?||

[acoustic sigil]

You can't get past them ever

So this rests you

[spice lodge]

||i sold a ton of stuff because i thought getting there will be easy 😔 there are new enemies now||

[carmine pewter]

|| gonna do path of pain what charms i need?||

[tranquil oriole]

don’t need any, but i’d recommend ||quickslash, grubsong, deep focus|| and whatever health retention stuff you like

lots of people recommend ||hiveblood||

[carmine pewter]

So that’s putting me in ||overcharm||

[tranquil oriole]

notch my problem

[knotty stratus]

||hiveblood to regenerate health. either long nail or mark of pride to pogo more efficiently. the only downside with those two charms is that sometimes the longer nail range makes you hit a spiked cieling. quickslash is also somewhat good for platforming. grubsong and deep focus are good for keeping health up||

[carmine pewter]

So im doing || hiveblood, deep focus, heart, and grubsong||

[inner robin]

||you honestly don’t need deepfocus and Grubsong if you have hiveblood||

||quickslash would serve you better than deepfocus in that build||

[carmine pewter]

I dont see how ||quickslash|| would help me

[livid shoal]

What boss

[carmine pewter]

||path of pain||

[livid shoal]

Oh

Yeah ||Q Slash|| helps

[carmine pewter]

How?

[inner robin]

||well it lets you slash more often which helps with pogos and stuff||

[livid shoal]

You can just spam pogo

[carmine pewter]

I have two more notches what else?

[livid shoal]

||Longnail||

[verbal widget]

Guys i have just beaten ||the mantis queens”||and now im stuck in the zone next to their throne, i went so deep that i arrived to a locked door with the symbol of a highway

Someone knows how can I exit this?

[verbal widget]

Yes

I legit don’t know where I am

[carmine pewter]

Thats the ||tram||

Yep that’s it, but I have no key. And no way to go back

||there are two ways out of this place that you can access. You either climb all the way up again or you find an item that enables you to use the tram.

everything was the issues

[shut sparrow]

||I believe they're stuck in deepnest||

[verbal widget]

||I didn’t know where to go since I had no map||

[verbal widget]

||I came out||

[shut sparrow]

so you don't need any help anymore?

[verbal widget]

||ima look at the ancient basin one. ||\

[acoustic sigil]

They said they were in ||ancient basin hk-disc||

[verbal widget]

||since I’m stuck there now||

[shut sparrow]

well they weren't when they asked here yet

[shut sparrow]

you can look at the video to get out thes

[verbal widget]

Well I’m not there, I’m at ||the tram stop||

||first one||

[shut sparrow]

go to the second one and explore the place. Or do whatever you want. You don't seem particularly stuck rn. At the end of the day this game is simply about exploring places you haven't found yet

[glossy shell]

Can someone recommend me where to go now? ||I want to meet hornet again since I missed her after defeating Herrah, that's because I went to ancient basin first, defeated lost kin, went to deepnest and then did some stuff there and then I went into the beasts den and fought Herrah, but I didnt meet hornet there? So should I go to kingdoms edge now to fight Hornet? What place best suits me if I want to see more npcs like Hornet showing up. ||

[kindred whale]

||next place you would meet hornet is kingdoms edge||

[obtuse lark]

Okay, so I'm absolutely stuck on ||enraged guardian|| and y'all can probably guess why. I can't seem to ||dodge all the laser attacks||

[glossy shell]

👍

[kindred whale]

||typically the best way to do it is just jump over him when he does his primary attack and be careful of the overhead lasers, and when he jumps||

[obtuse lark]

Damn, I'm screwed

[kindred whale]

I’m assuming you don’t have || shade dash|| yet?

Makes it 1000x easier

[obtuse lark]

Oh, I do!!

I'm an idiot

Lmfao

[kindred whale]

Oh lol

Yeah use that it’s really good for that fight

[neat karma]

@obtuse lark dont.

[zinc verge]

just know that he is one of the easier bosses in this game lmao
well, just jump over his hand laser
stand where ceiling laser can't hit you

[kindred whale]

In all fairness ||enraged guardian is the upgraded version of the fight and does double damage|| so I can’t blame them

[zinc verge]

double damage isn't bad if you can't even get hit by this coughing baby

and he is also faster but thats barely noticeable

[kindred whale]

True ||especially if you have shade cloak|| but honestly if it’s your first time fighting him and you ||don’t have many masks|| then I can understand a bit of difficulty

[zinc verge]

i mean with lower gear
i suppose yes
but after you get a bit better at this game
he is a joke

[kindred whale]

Oh yeah no definitely

Especially in ||the pantheons|| the fight is just a soul farm

Not even sometimes bc ||the fights immediately after a heal pool||

[obtuse lark]

Hmm, which charms would be best? I've tried a mixture, and I'm still stuck

[kindred whale]

Which ones do you have?

[hoary summit]

||guys i feel like im very close to making p3||

||i only panic at the last stage from sly||

[obtuse lark]

Sorry, it's really blurry camera is bad

[coarse valve]

||quick slash, unbreakable strength, shaman stone and grubsong||

@obtuse lark

[obtuse lark]

||I don't have unbreakable strength||

[coarse valve]

Dude it doesnt matter😭

[coarse valve]

You get the point

[obtuse lark]

Ohhh

Alright

But I keep dying really easy

[coarse valve]

What are you doing?

[obtuse lark]

Getting hit by the lasers

[coarse valve]

Is it a specific boss?

Do you have all abilities

[obtuse lark]

Yes, I believe so

And ||upgraded the spells||

[coarse valve]

Use ||soul catcher||

If its that hard for you

[obtuse lark]

Okay

[neat karma]

Please remember to tag all ingame content

[coarse valve]

Wayy too much work

[neat karma]

Then dont come to this channel

[coarse valve]

Tell that to the people who come here without beating the game themselves yet

🙏

They're bound to be spoiled

[neat karma]

Says the guy that doesnt want to tag spoilers in the spoiler free channel

[coarse valve]

Nothing to do with eachother?

[neat karma]

Its pretty clear why the rule exist so if you dont care enough like to follow it you can ask or help somewhere else

[neat karma]

That you could still spoil them when talking to someone else?

[burnt siren]

that is literally the purpose of this channel is for those people why are you even in this channel

[neat karma]

Hi dan

[coarse valve]

Not my point

[burnt siren]

no i understand your point its just its coming from a weird place

if 1% of hollow knight players come to the discord before beating the game this is the channel for that 1% of people

you cant say "basically nobody is gonna do that" because EVERYONE in this channel DOES do that

[coarse valve]

Dude

Everyone comes here with different questions

[neat karma]

Look i dont really care what your point is just follow the tagging rules and if you dont want to youre free to leave

[burnt siren]

yeah and all of them are in the form of "this is a thing i have not done, how do i do it"

and yeah these are just the established rules and it doesnt matter enough

im gonna go watch some random netflix show and waste away

[coarse valve]

Going through the channel itself has different questions...

[neat karma]

So true,,,

[coarse valve]

Dude like are we not even thinking about that

Let's say someone want to found out how to get ||the white fragments|| and someone else wants to just find ||wings||

Its in the same channel

They'll see it regardless

Talk about other abilities and items

Thats my point

[zinc verge]

spoiler tag then

what are you all even arguing about lmao

[neat karma]

Spoiler tags are just so that this doesnt happen so youre just proving why the rules exist?

[coarse valve]

Nah they just made a point that makes no sense

[neat karma]

If youre new here youre not meant to read messages not directed to you

[coarse valve]

They'll click it regardless

💀

[neat karma]

I fear thats common snese

[coarse valve]

Are you serious

[neat karma]

If they care about spoilers they wont

[coarse valve]

I fear that what I said is common sense?

[neat karma]

Just because you cannot contain yourself from clicking the little black box doesnt mean other people cant aswell

[coarse valve]

Dude you're embarrassing yourself😭🙏

Most people don't

[neat karma]

We offer the option for the people that want it idk why youre making such an issue of it

[coarse valve]

Like literally a proven study

[neat karma]

I dont care if most people dont this channel is for the few people that do

So why ruin then for them

Like i couldnt care lass if its 99% of people were here for that 1%

[inner robin]

If anybody is embarrassing themselves it’s you right now tbh

[coarse valve]

Not really

[neat karma]

If they dont care about spoilers they can go ask in literally any other hk channel

[inner robin]

Can you just drop it and move on please that would be nicer for everybody

[coarse valve]

I just hate how you're trying to make a point which is not valid

[neat karma]

Your point is the not valid one

[coarse valve]

The point you're making is subjective to only a specific type

[neat karma]

Something being more popular than another doesnt make the other nonexistant

Just because most people in the world are right handed it doesnt mean left handed people dont exist, your argument is that left handed people dont matter

[coarse valve]

In general there's a chance they will be spoiled either way being in a channel like this

Tags aren't full proof

Thats my point

You cant say its not a valid one

[inner robin]

So does that mean that you should put 0 effort at all??

[neat karma]

Exactly why were strict on the rules, if we can avoid it once the job is done

[sterile ember]

uhhh help chat lmao?
just stick to the rules and keep this chill for new players

lol

[neat karma]

Nothing can ever be perfect, doesnt mean we shouldnt try not to spoil them

[coarse valve]

Thats where my point comes in

People are naturally curious

[neat karma]

Ok and

[coarse valve]

They'll want to know what is being talked about

They'll see a spoiler either way

They'll end up clicking the box

Its not rocket science

[neat karma]

Look ill leave it at this, theres people that arent, theres people that care about not being spoiled and wont click, thats what this channel is for, i couldnt care less if it isnt foolproof, as long as it helps someone, the discussio nends here

If you want rules to be changed youre free to open a modmail, but i doubt anything will happen, if you dont want to follow the rules as stupid as they sound to you, then dont come here, thats is.

[coarse valve]

Whatever you say bro

[neat karma]

And if youre going to keep crying over it not being foolproof youre gonna get muted, simple as that

[coarse valve]

You were just talking stupid

[inner robin]

Some people aren’t like that
They won’t see spoilers because people tag them
Just because a system isn’t foolproof doesn’t mean you should abandon all rules alltogether
It’s not rocket science
(We understand your point but it doesn’t mean that the entire system should be thrown out the window because a few people end up getting spoiled anyways)

Oops sorry ping

[kindred whale]

||use great slash||

[coarse valve]

Thats my whole point

The system isn't full proof

[zinc verge]

patience is the key

[coarse valve]

And im not asking for it to be changed

You all proved my point

[neat karma]

What part of we dont care the system isnt foolproof didnt you get, theres nothing we can do about that so drop it

[coarse valve]

Have a good night

[inner robin]

All that was asked of you was to please follow the rules and you decided not to

[neat karma]

Exactly

[inner robin]

Nobody every said it was perfect

[coarse valve]

I JUST STATED THE SAME THING

Omg

[obtuse lark]

Um, I beat the ||guardian|| finally

[neat karma]

And you also said that means you shouldnt follow them

[inner robin]

Good job!

[neat karma]

Congrats!

[coarse valve]

Never said that

[obtuse lark]

And I appreciate people tagging spoilers, even when I forget to do it myself

[neat karma]

Do you want me to go up

[coarse valve]

Go on

[obtuse lark]

I haven't beat the game yet, it's my first playthrough

[neat karma]

឵឵

[burnt siren]

ismo you still continuing this

[coarse valve]

That doesnt mean-...

[hoary summit]

i will never use ||nail art||

[coarse valve]

Dude you're actually being stupid

[inner robin]

What’s wrong with them

[sterile ember]

you are sleeping on peak

[upbeat glen]

E

[coarse valve]

What you interpret as that clearly isn't what it is

[neat karma]

Yeah i know, im just gonna drop it

[coarse valve]

You said you were a long time ago

[burnt siren]

theyre kinda hard to utilize if you dont know what youre doing

[coarse valve]

You keep whining though

[neat karma]

When are you hopping on supraland aidan

[burnt siren]

its fair

oh yeah i forgot about that

honestly i have a lot of free time

might soon

[kindred whale]

||great slash can hit him while he’s doing the spin attack||

[neat karma]

Thats so peak!

[hoary summit]

they are bs and i wont be convinced otherwise

[obtuse lark]

Bro, this is me as heck

I struggle so much

[inner robin]

They’re fun when you practice them! It’s a learning curve

[hoary summit]

||nah ill just pogo||

[obtuse lark]

I haven't used them once since getting them 😭

[inner robin]

That’s why practice

[obtuse lark]

Pogo is ultimate

[hoary summit]

you literally dont need them to be good at fighting

at all

[inner robin]

||a lot of people refuse to use spells at first but then realize that they’re actually good, same with NArts||

[obtuse lark]

It doesn't matter if I had them or not, I still suck at fighting regardless 😭

[sterile ember]

||under that statement you dont need spells, or charms at all
it´s a fair mechanic that covers base nail weakneses||

just try it

[hoary summit]

||spells are way more useful tho, and apart from that you kinda need to put on the charm for the nail arts to even be usable||

[sterile ember]

uhhhh, no?

it just makes it more profitable to use and gets you a higher damage output, but no

[solid heart]

||Nail arts|| are just too high skill for the worth, imo||, if you can get value great, but I don't really expect everyone to get them (low gear is a whole nother story). The one case for casuals is probably dash slashing ||||Markoth or Obblobbles||

[hoary summit]

did you just eloquently say that its a skill issue?

xD

[solid heart]

No

[sterile ember]

more like lack of practice

||narts|| change your average ||nail|| button mashing gameplay

same with ||spells||

[solid heart]

They require quite a bit of skill to not hinder yourself, but quite a lot to get a lot of value

[hoary summit]

im doing good without them

[daring moat]

consider: you'd do better with them

[sterile ember]

fair, but dont say theyre unnecessary or blocked behind an unlockable

[thick wing]

I'm getting ||killed|| in ||flower quest|| someone help me

[radiant raft]

Clear out the path you’re gonna take of enemy’s and DON’T BENCH UNTIL YOU’RE FINISHED.

[tulip mountain]

help me on how to git gud on ||colloseum of fools 3||

[radiant raft]

Just keep practicing and go get better equipment if possible

[solid heart]

Dyrati's wall: ||#hk-help message||

[kindred whale]

Make sure to plot the route you’re most comfortable with and try take out enemies with spells if possible (especially ones that are more dangerous)

Also just go slowly, don’t rush it

[spiral pumice]

guys what do i do when i accidently uninstalled hollow knight with mods active and they wont work now

[radiant raft]

Have you checked to see if they’re installed?

[spiral pumice]

yeah they are

[radiant raft]

Go ask in #1057825333841240104

[spiral pumice]

ok

[undone jacinth]

||
Think properly and plot a good route with patience, compare it with alternate routes, what is shorter, what is safer
Do test runs without the flower to see how possible it is
I used a minion build with charms that give me companions that kill for me and mostly stayed away from enemies to decrease risk
Practice the last thorn path a lot without flower
If you don't want a minion build use charms that boost spells or increase nail range, speed, atk etc
Do not try to give flower to an npc, first time you should take it to traitors child grave||

.
||You can actually clear all the enemies and not sit at any bench because that respawns them
Then attempt the quest , with all the enemies dead and only the minor ones spawning
This makes it very easy
The point to remember is do not sit on a bench ever
Would recommend trying doing the quest normally first||

[stoic cedar]

Mods are installed as part of the game files so by uninstalling the game u have also uninstalled all ur mods. That being said, u should be able to just reinstall all the mods u previously had and it should be fine. If u r having trouble doing so the I would suggest going to #1057825333841240104

[short kettle]

||Save certain enemies to farm soul and heal to the max. I don't see this recommended in most tips and its really helpful to start anew in the middle of the game.||

||The fools with the shields (Shielded Fools) and the Mistakes spawning when Soul Twister appears are the best for this strat.||

These two are very easy to ||dream nail infinitely and heal up + fill your soul to the max before killing them||

[thick wing]

why should i practice

is there any draw backs with holding it?

[undone jacinth]

The very last ||thorn path is easy to slip up on||

[undone jacinth]

No, || just no damage, stag or dreamgate||

[thick wing]

any path you suggest?

[undone jacinth]

I could tell you mine..... but if i am honest that would just take out all the fun and reward out of it
||I have no problem telling you if you think it's not worth the trouble,
But otherwise i would suggest you try yourself because that's the good part|||

[thick wing]

ok

[undone jacinth]

If you want to know later after trying or you change your mind, then you can always ask here or can ping me

[olive tiger]

Does anyone have any tips for no eyes? Pantheon 4 is such a pain

[jaunty night]

I tend to play as safe as possible on no eyes for my p5 runs and also getting shrieks in when possible deals a good bit of damage

[solid heart]

||are you using shaman stone? Also do you have any issues with TL?||

[olive tiger]

yeah I am, and I get hit maybe once or twice by him sometimes but I wouldn't say that it's too much trouble...?

[solid heart]

Try this: ||With strength, hit No eyes 12 times and then cast 5 shade souls (try to double hit to save soul)||

[undone jacinth]

||p4 no eyes is like a fight that's there as a tea break for you
I stay always on the floor centre , heal first
Get in only the safe hits when she appears just above the floor to the right and left
I don't waste my soul on spells but conserve it since the fight isn't challenging
Heal on thw off chance i get hit
I don't take risks by going up to upper levels||

My idea Takes time but sets me up with no losses for later fights that i initially struggled a lot with

||aka traitor lord but now he doesn't stand a chancw||

[kindred marlin]

||The mantis village bench seems locked to me by a mantis|| any help with that?

[jaunty night]

|| you have to beat the mantis lords at the bottom of the area before that door will open ||

[knotty stratus]

id probably put a spoiler on ||flower quest|| and the image too

[slate night]

sorry i am new how do i do this

[knotty stratus]

check the pinned messages

[slate night]

k i will

[knotty stratus]

i know that in hk-help u need spoilers, but idk if u need spoilers in anything else

[knotty stratus]

did u end up figuring it out?

[slate night]

i figured out how to do it for the image not the words tho

[acoustic sigil]

||like this||

?tag spoilers

[languid radish]

🔹 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.

[knotty stratus]

for the words just put 2 vertical lines (||) on each side of the text u want to put a spoiler on.

[slate night]

this is my personal favorite route for ||the flower quest|| do with it what you must

there

why am i so slow

[knotty stratus]

w route

[slate night]

thx

[knotty stratus]

i personally go from ||crossroads straight to fog canyon instead of crossroads, fungal, fog canyon||

[slate night]

that makes sense

[livid shoal]

I go through ||Greenpath into QG||

[slate night]

i suck at fog canyon so i avoid it

flying enemies are my weakness

[knotty stratus]

i just take my time and make sure to look down so i know where to go without hitting enemies

[drowsy yarrow]

I actually like taking the elevator down to ||city||

[slate night]

i just killed everything in the way then dream gated back then went and it was easy

[livid shoal]

Literally what everyone does

[drowsy yarrow]

the only dangerous room is the ||storerooms||, but you can ||ddark|| all the way to the bottom making it 100% consistent

I have a demo: #hk-help message

It's the fastest and most consistent imo

[slate night]

any tips for p4

[solid heart]

I don't like that route because you have to face ||winged sentries||

[knotty stratus]

for a second i thought u meant u were ||going from resting grounds to city and crossing the entirety of city. then i saw the storerooms elevator||

[solid heart]

One of the few enemies I still despise

[drowsy yarrow]

watch the video demo, it avoids dealing with them perfectly

[solid heart]

Ahh, that ||elevator||

Still, I don't see the issue with ||fog canyon most people have
The jellyfish are passive||

[slate night]

that is true

i just always hit them

[knotty stratus]

||maybe practice the bosses beforehand until u feel confident. im basic so i usually go with strength, quickslash, shaman stone, and spell twister for all the fights so i can use equal amounts nail and spells. certain bosses like markoth and soul tyrant are better to use spells against while bosses like lost kin and the final boss of the pantheon are better with the nail||

[livid shoal]

My old build

[slate night]

that’s very helpful

thank u

[livid shoal]

Replaced ||Twister|| with ||G Song and NMG||

[knotty stratus]

whats the new build?

[slate night]

once I beat it, I will send my 112% picture

[knotty stratus]

||grubsong and no major glitches 😔 ||

[livid shoal]

||Nailmaster's Glory||

[tawny sapphire]

Tags smh

[undone jacinth]

||you can't actually do the 2 endings from p5 if you don't kill the dreamers imo ?
Or is absrad unlocked by default||

[knotty stratus]

||i think the only requirement for absrad is void heart. let me check||

[radiant raft]

Yeah that’s the only one

[knotty stratus]

yeah u ||can only unlock pantheon 5 after void heart. pretty sure dreamers are just for black egg endings||

[dense lava]

||dreamers aren't required for godhome (watcher nights and uumuu are tho)||

[undone jacinth]

👍👍👍

[short kettle]

A bit late if you're still having trouble, ||remember to use nail arts instead of regular attacks. She has a chance of teleporting with every hit and most of the time, she does. So you'll have to make every hit count and the best way to do that is with Great Slash or Dash Slash. Stay on the floor most of the time, keep your nail art charged and jump in when she's close. The fight is really pretty easy once you get comfortable dodging the ghosts on the floor. Just don't rush it and know it will take a while. On the plus side, you won't need to waste any soul on spells because nail arts do plenty of damage and you can save it for upcoming bosses easily.||

[olive tiger]

It's fine, I don't have access to my computer rn but I plan to practice when I get home. Haven't really used nail arts before but I'll try to get the hang of it

[short kettle]

I'm no pro with ||arts|| either, but ||great slash|| is pretty easy to use for bosses that are notorious to hit like ||No Eyes and Markoth on ascended arena||. It will definitely help a lot.

[static axle]

BRO

i just played hk after like an year

and I DIED TO ||TRAITER LORD IN P5||

OF ALL THE THINGS TO HAVE KILLED ME

I HATEEEEEEEEEE ||NO EYES|| it got me down to 3 hp

bruhhhhh

i was close

[undone jacinth]

We just talked about this actually
#hk-help message
See the replies to this
And here is my reply #hk-help message
Other people have also replied with starts so maybe you should read all the replies

[sinful vortex]

any tips for ||watcher knights?|| here are my ||charms|| and stuff ||rn i have 7 masks and one extra soul orb||

[undone jacinth]

Bruh ||why compass ?!||

||and do you use nail arts ?||

[sinful vortex]

forgot to unequip that

||replace it with grubsong||

[sinful vortex]

i dont have any window to charge them

but usually i do

[undone jacinth]

If you can't use it in the fight then it shouldn't be there

[sinful vortex]

alr

what should i replace it with

[knotty stratus]

||spells are very important in this fight since when the watcher knights are rolled up, u cant hit them with the nail. i think the charm loadout u have is good, just replace compass with grubsong for more soul. if u don't use nail arts that much, replace it with sprintmaster or steady body. tbh if u just descending dark the watchers the whole fight and shade soul them when they are rolling away, they should go down easily||

[undone jacinth]

||dash master (oops i meant sprintmaster), grubsong may be good
Extra range or more soul would be good too aka soul catcher or longnail
What do you need more of the two ?||

[sinful vortex]

||i try landing descending dark but i always take contact damage after i use it||

[sinful vortex]

||probably more soul, i dont really have any problem with landing hits on them||

[acoustic sigil]

The basic strategy of the fight is: ||Hit a couple of times to get soul, get above them, use ddark, repeat. Ddark can also be used to get out of hard to dodge situations cause of the iframes||

[sinful vortex]

ah alright

[acoustic sigil]

Don't immediately start hitting with your nail

That cancels the iframes

[sinful vortex]

||should i jump before using ddark or should i use it without jumping||

[sinful vortex]

oh

[knotty stratus]

||maybe try jumping and dashing away straight after using it if u know u will get hit since descending dark gives u a short moment of invincibility||

[sinful vortex]

should i walk away after using it or ||dash||

[acoustic sigil]

||Uh probably dash as it's faster, but both would work||

[sinful vortex]

or should i collect more ||pale ore to upgrade my nail||

[undone jacinth]

Whats your upgrade now ?

[sinful vortex]

||coiled||

[acoustic sigil]

||A small jump is the quickest way to cast it. However since the charge downwards also does damage, I'd do a big jump to be above them and hit them in the chargr||

[sinful vortex]

alr

[undone jacinth]

||Another upgrade would probably be difficult , not quick to get
You're also already pretty far out in the nail upgrades category
If you're getting hit a lot sprintmaster and grubsong will help
But if you get good enough then soul catcher is for you
Either way the change of just 2 notches would not win the fight for you since it lasts a long time so your actual dodging and spell damage is the main item here||

[sinful vortex]

alr

[worthy umbra]

i think i just ||tanked them and spammed spells lol||

[old path]

tips for defeating ||broken vessel|| ?

[sinful vortex]

augh

ok yeah i swapped out ||nailmaster's glory and compass for grubsong and sprintmaster and i beat them second try||

||ddark spam is pretty op lmao||

[dense lava]

||spells are very useful for them, you can hit 2 at the same time, also they can't roll if they are both ofscreen so then you can heal||

[dense lava]

||Why are you dying ☠️ to bosses 👨🏼? You should just be using descending dark 🕶. Descending ⬇️ dark 🕶️ gives you iframes 👀 which stop 🛑 you taking damage 😔. It also does a🅰️🅰️ lot of damage 😢. Stop 🛑 dying ☠️ to video 📻📻👾 game 👾 bosses 👨🏼 and just use descending ⬇️ dark 🌑|| XD

[sinful vortex]

peak copypasta

[dense lava]

frfr

[worthy umbra]

i mean it is true

i did that

[sinful vortex]

||LURIEN, THIS IS MY REVENGE FOR QUIRREL||

||DAMN YOU DREAMERS||

man why did i have to kill ||monomon first||

[dense lava]

||Lurien probably didn't even meet Quirrel lol||

[undone jacinth]

Hmn...||at his end, he was at peace
I don't think you need to take revenge||

[sinful vortex]

||I DONT CARE MAN THEY TOOK QUIRREL AWAY FROM ME||

[dense lava]

i mean technically ||you are the one that pushed him 🙃 ||

[undone jacinth]

Yes true

[sinful vortex]

WHAT

[dense lava]

||if you didn't persue monomom quirrel would have never uncovered what the mask he wore was, also technically the hing that kills him is you talking to him 🙃 so now you need to take revenge on yourself||

[sinful vortex]

🥀

guh

[static axle]

never mind, its just cuz i havent played the game in a long time, i will get it with a couple of practice runs
