Thought so
||Eugh. I think the only path forward there is through a platforming section with a bunch of lightning flies, huh||
You've got it. It's worth it though.
What all would I need to rename? I'm just trying to move 2 -> 3
User2.dat to User3.dat should be enough
And user2modded to user3modded
No harm in changing all the user2 ones to user3
As far as I can tell from my experiments on them, the numbers are simply slot denoters and shouldn't conflict at all.
I don't have anything in 3 though?
Is this after renaming?
Well, yeah, it doesn't matter
Okay
Slot 2 should have an empty save/"New Game" after
I haven't done any renaming yet
So just change anything with 2 to 3 and vice versa?
Because it's saying I have data in 3
||Seperate but slightly related question, I wonder if I can get the shadow cloak to get through that barrier to Cornifer there. No map's pretty annoying||
I thought I had to spoiler every image here bro
Probably from a save you deleted before. Deleting those shouldn't be a problem, it's just backup data for the mods.
What can i do in this place? Sorry for bad photo
Its pretty late in the game, behind barriers that will require a solid kit for newbies.
Lore. You can read it if you equip ||Spore Shroom charm||.
?
Yep.
Alrighty
hello, please spoiler all images of in-game content as per channel rules.
And then everything with 2 can be changed to 3?
Yeah, that should do the trick.
Gonna re open the game now
Fingers crossed
It duplicated the save
"its two of them now"
That's weird, but yeah, do that.
I'm loading the save rq just to test it
It seems fine
Idk what I could specifically check to see if anything is bugged
So then everything is fine then?
I wanted to move the files because save 2 was originally the save I did with my friend. But it's not fully complete, and I wanted save 2 to be my next challenge which is gonna be ||Steel soul while beating both speedrun challenges, since I have yet to do that||
Looks like that. Copy pasting data shouldn't really give issues at all. Idk if mods could interfere with that, but chances are you're fine.
It seems fine
We did this last night
I got him ||True ending||
I'm gonna be streaming it whenever I get to it
I'm currently stuck on an endless run in pokerogue though 
I'll have to check out whatever that is, never heard of it. Though #hk-general is the better channel for this convo.
I know lol
any help with ||absrad||
ive been practising over and over yet i dont seem to make any progress
it just feels like i have to get lucky
HOOOLY YESSS
I DID IT IN PRACTICE
NOW I JUST NEED TO DO IT FR
nice! u should still practice it more to get it semi consistent
yeah imma do it till i get it at least 3 times in a row
i would suggest trying to beat ||ascended absrad|| once before going for it
damn ok thatll for sure be difficult
it absolutely amazes me how people can do it hitless all ||bindings||
yea it was very hard the first time i was going for it, but nowadays i can probably get it once every 30 mins to an hour. but it takes a ton of practice, u have to be very familiar with how the fight works
its extreme
its extreme compared to the "casual" experience (like ppl who just beat ||p5||), but its actually not too bad compared to some of the other insane stuff that ppl have done. just takes a huge time commitment to practice the game, thats all
if u enjoy the game and continue playing it, its inevitable that u will get to the skill level where smth like ||radiant absrad all bindings|| is not actually like impossible
i mean thats a normal amount of time to spend on it, nothing to be discouraged about
oh thank god i was starting to get nervous
AT LAST, I'M FINALLY HERE MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!!
ggs
no
yea pretty much, i mean there is a small reward for it ig but its unimportant
alr
btw for the fight is the strat when its the 2nd phase just to stay on one platform and wait for him to come to you?
thats the way i had the most succes
||for absrad? yea, u generally want to camp on a platform and only attack if absrad spawns nearby. the bottom middle platform is the easiest to do with this strat since it is the easiest to dodge attacks there, but top middle is also an option since u can always drop down to the bottom middle platform to dodge if needed.||
||also a bit unrelated but absrad is a "she", not a "he"||
oh alr i didnt know
how do you put the spoiler covering over text?
?tag spoilers this should have instructions on how to do so
🔹 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.
||like this||
||how do you do the abs rad climb phase consistently?It looks like she just shoots where she wants and I can't do any thing about it if i'm in the wings animation or someting. is it possible to bait the attack away from where you need to go?||
|| what works best for what I do is I double jump straight up and then dash towards the platform since u can dash through the beams||
||so wait for shade cloak on every platform and then try to climb? ||
Yeah
You should be able to stand still in a platform and wait for it while still dodging beams in the same platform
||the most consistent strat for climb is to go in rhythm with the beams. u jump up right before the telegraph for the beam appears, then based on where the telegraph is, u have to react accordingly. if the telegraph is right on top of u, like pretty much fully overlapping u, u have to dash out of the way. if the telegraph is not aimed directly at u but is in the way of the next platform, u should drop down and wait for the next beam, or if positioned well enough, u can jump to the side and shade dash through the beam. if the telegraph is not in the way, then u r safe to double jump up to the next platform. u generally want to avoid wall jumping at all in the climb since the action of wall jumping locks u into a certain trajectory for a bit and that could cause problems when trying to dodge a beam. also another thing to note about the beams is that as u progress further and further into the climb, the beams become increasingly accurate. basically, near the start of the climb, the beams are mostly random since the range in which they can spawn is very wide. but near the top, all of them are going to be aimed near u since the range is much narrower. so you can use this to ur advantage on the second half of the climb by "baiting" the beams outwards by double jumping away from the platforms, then shade dashing back towards the next platform (note that this isnt effective near the bottom since the beams are not accurate enough to be baited as described).||
☕
this strat is more complicated than it needs to be imo
ok, thanks
tips from dyrati: ||#hk-help message||
||Anyone have tips for beating lost kin? I’m having a super hard time going bast his third stagger||
||quickslash Shaman stone and unbreakable/fragile strength||
unless you dont have enough charm notches
||if u can stagger him once, u can beat him, keep trying. Notice how you lose health and try to either fix that or play safer and less agressive||
||prioritize killing the ghosts as soon as they spawn||
||decsending dark||
||I already figured that out, I always go past the third stagger but can’t somehow deal the last damage||
ah
||im loosing my mind over this boss im over the 50+ tries and im not coming back later||
cool uh do you need help?
yo gg ||radhog||
||IVE STAGGERED HIM 5 TIMES, WHAT THE FUCK||
who
||Dream dead infected brother||
||honestly i find lost kin leagues easier than broken vessel, just for the fact that you already have expierence with the boss||
||ur nail is probably too weak then||
||Channeled Nail||
||being patient on that fight gives you rewards, his jumps are unpredictable, savor your shade cloak and only hit when you're sure you won't get punished||
What level is your nail
||what’s shade cloak?||
Ima record myself
Give me a sec
😔 spoilers man
if you don't have that, you should probably come back later
yeah my bad
Whats that like level 4?
as soon as I start recording I’m ass
3
||channeled is 3 i tink?||
Oh damn, you should really upgrade it then yup
||got no more minerals||
Search
||i've done each boss in the game hitless and lost kin always gave me trouble, if that's any consolation||
😭
Yall giving that bum too much credit, i got my ass kicked by ||broken vessel|| like six times but ||lost kin|| was lightwork
||im at 70 tries for lost kin||
each boss challenges each player differently
Damn
||does pure vessel change in p5 or is it just attuned||
Its the same
||the stagger scales by number of hits or my damage dealt?||
Hits, and combos which are a number of hits in a small time frame
do you think ill be able to do ||abs rad without ub heart|| cuz i main ||sharp shadow when fighting pure vessel||
||i'm guessing you're going too aggro, try a fight where you punish only when you know it's free damage||
use ||defenders crest|| oml it helped so much
I mean, try to beat him whitout ||sharp shadow||, it wont be that much harder, cuz ub is really useful
||is it a talisman||
welp
Yes the one from the the ||dung defender||
Try find it
chat what's ub again?
unbreakable
ah
||its the shield heal one?||
||playing late game without strength is troll imo haha||
i NEED ||sharp shadow|| for ||pure vessel||
Ypu know the one that makes you stink
ah yes
wrong charm my bad
||we're not using heart?||
||I think I’m kind of outdated to play this boss, 5 talisman holes, barely a build, ass ability||
Ok then learn not to need it, trust me its gonna make the whole boss rush easier
||i main sharp shadow for pure vessel so idk if i can beat absrad in p5||
without ubh
||your first playthrough right? please go explore elsewhere, lost kin will feel easy later on||
Practice ||pv|| whitout it
||legit only use ss for pure vessel||
i did a couple tries before and got thrashed but i will now
||sharp shadow is a crutch and not worth it||
||I’m gonna kill rhis guy till I don’t get his soul||
Either way tho ||markoth|| is the only thing that prevents me from getting to final
i can give you specific tips for the fight if you want, feel free to dm
Just mind yourself i practiced and didnt attemp ||p4|| until i beat him consistently 3 times in a row so practice makes perfect
im goated at him with ||ss||
||I tried everything I could, dd him till death and I staggered 7 times, still didn’t die||
otherwise yeah
but this especially is the main issue
remember you can kill any boss fight nail zero with no spells or charms
||I need help on the delicate flower quest, what charms should I use||
Yeah ||markoth|| is a pain in the ass and theres no way to get consistent against him so yeah
||the route is the most important, where are you going?||
Wrong reply?
||not my case I’m not a crazy guy. I just need the souls||
Lend me that over
Your dark soul.
ummmmmm
which one did i reply to
Me
@thick wing i did ||pv without sharp shadow first try|| 😂
then yeah, lol, sorry
and arguably lost less health
alrighty
That issue is out the way
||The fuck do i do about markoth||
pray
Pray
even if rng is lucky i still fuck it up
I just found out ||dream shield|| isnt that bad for ||winged nosk||
Like take 5 minutes if tou need
i never thought i’d use that
bro i take longer
honestly i havent beaten him ||ascended||
Same
Isnt the ascended arena whit the ground
u beaten ||p5?||
Oh ok then
no im taking a break from that lmao
So its extra shit
||Nail arts and enormous amounts of patience||
hes the only threat to my run
fair enough
I just tank his damage and end it asap since he only does 1 dmg
Integrity is the key, dont think abput what could happen think about what is happening
i can beat ||p5 ||hitless i just sometimes get hit 👨
Damn bro you cracked
fr
that’s a joke…
fair enough
but i dont wanna go in there and die ygm
||Whats the boss after||
The one and only
Ill tag ig
||Grey prince zote||
Two cancers in a row damn
lmao
i dont find him that bad imo
Thats why i hated that ||pantheon||
Just the fucking moth
moths** mb i havent tasted ||absrad yet||
||i beat it like 5 times in hog but just cant in p5||
i need to beat it once ||ascended before i go back||
First time i got to ||absrad|| i thought "how hard could it be", very hard imdeed
||what do i do for the sword spam phase 2||
i just want to unlock it 😭
|| I'm so cooked i cant even beat Pantheon 2 how tf am I gonna do pantheon 5 😭 😭 😭 ||
I got to ||platforms|| in my first try and thought i was good
Even whitout a spell build get a few hits in and then ||shriek||
Thats what i did
||p2 is easier than p1 for me tbh||
I mostly spared all soul just to ||shriek|| him as muck as possible
the only obstacle of ||p5|| that has stopped me
||on the 3 tries ive done p5 only marmu sos and uumuu had killed me||
What are some good bosses to practice parrying against
Dont parry
||nkg and pv||
all done ||ascended|| now with ||sos radiant||
Nah but for real the best boss is ||the stingy shopkeeper|| which comically large sword "only a swordful" ah
To practice parrying
spoilers 🙏
||dark descent shadow aura deals damage? How much if so?||
15
parrying is very useful
just very few use cases
crazy how ive ||radianted nkg but havent ascended xero||
it kicks ass when you use it well tho
Full parried this mf slashes
and still don’t die
||i did nkg radiant before grimm 😭 ||
I mean i much rather walk or ||dash|| rather than risk my life for 1 hit
I practiced him that much
How does that even work
I beaten radiant ||pv|| before ||flukemarm||
hes just more fun
fr
I wanna learn how because there was one boss I was fighting that I can’t remember right now but everytime I accidentally hit their counter I would still get hit by running
and no rng
You mean the "insert countless attributes" boss
i feel great getting ||abyss shriek off on nkg then i get molested when tryna pogo markoth once||
I just wish ||his shield deactivated like our charm does||
Maybe he will be nerfed in future
😂
This game won’t get any more updates…
All other bosses with counters I can get out the way easily but not this one because of the attack being bigger
Technically before 2026
is it just me or is ||gpz|| not bad
with full gear he’s fine yeah
dm me if you wanna learn the fight
it’s my philosophy
I’m not leaving till I beat the boss
I did like this all the game
is ||flukenest|| good with ||spell|| builds? ik it synergizes with ||defenders crest and turns into a huge bomb type spell||
|| I was stuck on soul master for 2 real life days||
bro has 1000 hours in a save
please spoiler tag ||spell||
Actually I have as now 17h
dang
whattt
some people here dont even try out a boss before asking for help and when they do they inmediately give up
how many hours
really hope youre spending the time between new areas looking for upgrades or else these bossfights are just going to go up and up in tries
||it's only really good when you hit every instance of damage, it's very situational and most of the time the regular spell outdamages it||
For this mf
respect
I legit don’t know what to explore anymore
Ima just head to the closest zone I have and look out for secrets now that I have ||monarch wings||
nodding sagely
||defenders crest negates the shotgun effect but idk if the damage is worth using 4 charm notches over just shaman stone + spell twister||
||generally looking at every empty spot in your map gets you a ton of stuff and rooms to explore||
||btw you know how to remove the dream seal for a white armor?||
||if shade soul double hits (which it mostly does if you use it well) it's almost always better damage than flukenest, the charm notches are better used elsewhere unless you're really optimizing damage for speedruns||
||youre not going to be able to do that for quite a while so i really wouldnt worry about it||
ye ill probably just use ||the slots for soul sanctum and quick nail||
||flukenest is mostly for fun these days unless you're a 0.1% speedrunner||
im always saying this
||the flukenest + dcrest synergy is terrible, its actually worse than just flukenest. so if u ever consider using flukenest, dont use it with dcrest since its just a debuff||
watch me shitting out flukes on these bugs
||fart blast||
||question for people, is it possible to recover dreams from already beaten enemies, I didn’t unlock the dream nail when I fought soul master in city of tears||
||thats actually how you unlock the optional dream fights like soul tyrant||
||mind naming some bosses I could get dreams back? Like the mantis queen?||
||i mean u have to defeat the base form before u can go for their dream form anyways so the answer is yes||
||the optional dream fights are false champion, soul tyrant, lost kin, zote the mighty, and white defender||
||What the actual fuck a dream knight attacked me cause I was harvesting souls||
aside from that theres ||warriors dreams that spawn after you get the dream nail||
||where’s false champion located? I swear I could have fight him already||
||hes in the top of the room, you need mantis claw to get up there||
||I got it, what top room ?||
||the top of the room you fight false knight, theres a secret wall you gotta break and thats where his corpse is||
||I mean what zone? Is it in the mantis village?||
Above where you fought ||false knight||
||no? false champion is the dream version of false knight, you fight him in crossroads||
||I think I might have to unlock that zone yet||
||crossroads is the first area in the game dog||
in my linaguge is diff
I assumed it was like ||forgotten tunnels or sum like that in english||
||my mind immediately goes to royal waterways when tunnels are mentioned, the area under city of tears||
Please dont spam emotes
|| damage both equally so when you kill one, you dont have to deal with enraged phase for too long ||
Any tips on defeating ||traitor lord|| without we know who?
||your shadow dashes sre timed so you have time to hit once if close and then dash through all its attacks||
||if its doing the ground dash you can jump and pogo him to deal damage aswell||
If you || get too far from him he'll do an attack where he throws some flying discs at you so its preferable to stay close||
So, he only does this if I get too far?
Interesting
Yeah
|| Hey guys, so earlier in my playthrough I killed the nailsmith(I didn't know he can have a good ending), and I found out that if you make him stay alive he can be with Nailmaster Sheo. So I'm wondering, since I killed the nailsmith, does that mean Sheo is doomed to be sad and lonely forever? ||
on that save file, yes
||i mean lorewise if u spare the nailsmith he will make his way to sheo which is when they meet, but if u kill the nailsmith, sheo will never get to meet the nailsmith so he'll likely not even know that the nailsmith exists||
isnt he his disciple?
I don’t think he will be sad
no
|| Wait so oro and mato are but sheo isnt? ||
What r u talking about
||i think u r mixing up nailsmith with sly||
||none of them are nailsmith disciples||
OHHH
yea
mb i mixed them up
I try to fight smth at least 5 times before I ask for help
||can someone explain to me what happens if i decide to banish grimn troupe or dont do it i have option to fight nightmare grimn right now what happens if i beat him. and if i banish do i keep grimn child charm||
||if you banish the quest inmediately ends, you get an achievement exclusive to banishing (unless youre in playstation) and you get a charm that replaces grimmchild, so no, you dont keep it. in the other hand if you dont banish and instead beat the boss your grimmchild charm gets upgraded and you also get an achievement for that route (unless once again playstation in which case both paths give the same achievement||
its up to you ||wether to banish or fight, since both charms are pure trash and shouldnt affect your descision||
ty
Also another difference is ||the behavior of divine in both the paths. If banishment is chosen then divine will leave immediately regardless of how many unbreakable charms u have. If u complete the ritual by defeating nkg then divine will stick around until u obtain all unbreakable charms and revisit leg eater||
Really in the context of the characters, ||either choice is positive, you just have the outlook into the future to know one will be better||
||Pure vessel tips||
any specific attacks u r struggling on?
id suggest ||strength quickslash shaman and either spell twister or grubsong and steady body||
okay, then i would suggest u try out the boss first to get a feel for it. but one overall tip i can give is that ||u can pre-emptively jump for all his attacks, itll put u in a good spot for pretty much any upcoming attack.||
where do you ||find white defender?||
Have you gotten || the three dreamers?||
yes
Go back to the ||acid pump room just after dung defenders arena and some where on the floor there should be some unstable floor||
|| hey so im on my first blind playthrough still and i just got something called the delicate flower, it says if it i get hit it gets lost forever, but i havent even unlocked the area im suppoed to put it in, what should i do?||
ohh ty
It’s not actually lost forever. Just play the game and when you’re ready for it go back and do it.
okay good to know! i got really scared that i messed it up! alrighty ty
Try giving it|| to random npc for fun interactions||
oke
Is it me or ||p2 is way easier to do it's bindings than p1||
In general I found ||P2 easier then P1|| so probably yeah
Fr
The || final boss in p1 is lil hard to deal with ||
I wanna try to doit without charms
But the run takes so long
is there a way to change hollow knight patches on xbox app or microsoft store? I am on pc btw
No i dont think so sorry, you can on steam and im unsure about gog
you can on gog im pretty sure
Did ||soul and shell together but didn't expect to doit that fast wtf||
What charms should i take for ||p3||
It looks hell
Ismoil!
Hii
hi bestie
Bestie we can finally be bees
It’s uh
i know
12:02 am
12
And I don’t have my pc
mind calculations
oh for sure then
You’ll live for <thirty> years
You have every charm right?
Yep
I died to that stupid ||jellyfish||
I went hitless on ||grimm just to die to a jelly fish||
I took||strength,qslash,shamen,long nail||
Last one is preference for range so i dont have to get super close against||zote nor grimm||
Only change I’d make is ||Long Nail to Spell Twister but it’s mostly boils down to preference.||
I usually take that one yea
But i changed especially for ||p3||
Out of horror perhaps
Personally went for full nail build and it didn't take long to beat ||p3||.
||Strength, mark of pride, Quick slash, nailmaster's glory, dream wielder. Dream wielder is very good against Uumuu||
|| How tf do you beat uumu in p3?? ||
How
Hit ||the jelly things i forgor name||
|| Dream wielder isnt meant for offense isnt it? ||
Not particularly
|| Yeah they spawn at like the bottom left whilst uumu is in the complete opposite side ||
So go to bro so it hits bro
|| Once you hit them they have a reaction speed of like a single second, how do you travel from that distance? ||
||It gives you double the soul and lets you hit uummu before it bumps into you. Very great for heals and spamming spells, especially to recover after the messy fight that is Zote||
Thats lowkey enough for a good chunk of the playergase
|| So you dont need to hit the jelly fishes? ||
||Uummu follows you so keep him around the center so you can redirect it to the nearest jellyfish if need be||
You do, there's no way to beat it without that.
Ah
alright
||What I do is just dodge until a jellyfish is near the boss. Then use vengeful spirit to explode it right there and then. Easy damage and stagger. Hitting jellyfishes with your nail is way riskier.||
i dont like him
He gets better as a boss fight when you get better at his boss fight
||currently trying to do pantheon 5 and this bitch is in my way, also i did banishment so i have carefree melody||
dont get me wrong, the fight is sick as hell, just extremely frustrating for me
Yea iam not beating||sly||
i can ||consistently get to the second pufferfish, and to when he turns into the bat horde for the second time||
Just keep practicing him in ||HoG|| until you win consistently. Maybe do him ||radiant a few times||
that's what i plan to do
||1st or 2nd phase?||
Don't think he reached the second phase
Incredibly fast i have to switch builds
Ok wtf why is he jumping so fast
||ketamine||
||Yeah, it will take a bit to study him. Attacking him during the move where he jumps in the air and turns into a buzzsaw and lands down worked the best for me. And attacking him during the dash slash which is pretty easy to avoid and nail bounce on him.||
That mf made forget how to play
Its like fighting||nkg|| again
Well good thing i have him atleast in ||hog||
||Mark of pride|| is so good against him
He's canonically using ||Mark Of Pride + Longnail + Nailmaster's Glory||
i used them both ||long nail and pride the second time||
xd
killed em again iam slowly getting my revenge
Please edit your message with spoiler tags
And that is quite subjective, everyone will disagree
But I find the ||broken vessel|| one the easiest
Or well ||how do I defeat the broken vessel dream boss?||
||soul tyrant or lost kin||
Got a certain ||youtube video to recommend to help me,||
oc pheonix is good with these bosses
Because I need ||the dream essence for the awakened dream nail||
i managed to ||radiant lost kin cause of him||
and if you found yourself annoyed of it use a cheese build
even tho i dont recommend cause losing against a boss makes you learn alot
how painful is this chat
||late game bosses||
||pantheon bindings. Also delete that cause no spoiler.||
omw gang, you should know
thats very easy wtf
oh alr alr
thanks
whts inside the room though?
i will be honest ||i died more during p3||
ok i died but i got him to 40% hp
||the door just leads to a small room containing a reward that helps u out in pantheons||
oh thanks man
||holy SHIT that was so close||
||why is hornet part 2 so fragile compared to other bosses lmao||
what does this do
||what are my chances at p5 if i was able to get to sly in about 5 tries ? (He got me good)
(I did practice SoB in HoG after i unlocked it)
These are the bosses that i have major issues with (but haven't got to them in p5 yet)
Sly will be fine if i practice a bit more
Hornet 2 goes iffy in phase 2 (sometimes good sometimes i get out with half health), phase 1 goes fine
Markoth is the greatest pain .... Plus it will be way worse with ascended arena
Zote goes good or bad depending on my luck, practiced a lot but still have issue with him
NKG i have beaten normally and also in HoG, the only reason i marked him is that his fight is punishing as 2 mask damage and i get hit a couple times when i slip up whereas i can dodge him mostly (except fireball)
I forgot to include xero .... That fight is rough for me because in phase 1 i get in less hit and lose more life
Was only able to get to winged nosk because i tanked his p2 and did abyss shrieks even while I was getting hit a lot||
||unlocks a door
What areas have you been to ?||
this is my current ||map||
||deepnest hasnt been explored fully yet||
||also i havent beaten enraged guardian in crystal peaks||
Well currently you aren't beating it
||ive been to queens gardens and fog canyon||
But you'll get it eventually with some more practice off the bosses you are struggling with
||there is a door in ancient basin with that mark||
That is crazy
who's matt lowne
i think i remember that door yeah ig ill head over there
||Yep i know 🤣
I will practice those bosses before reattempting otherwise there is not point to all that struggle to only die later
I couldn't actually believe p5 was possible for me so i had to ask what are my chances
I have practiced sly a lot and on HoG practice it goes awesome a lot of times but then i just can't do the same level of fight in pantheons somehow
Sly is the farthest i have gotten as of yet but my guesses on problematic bosses would be accurate as i have already had to deal with them in previous pantheons||
(oh shit, i forgot to turn off reply ping
)
||well technically the last 7 or so bosses are the hardest so u havent hit the hardest part yet. but getting to sly in just 5 attempts is already really good. but with the practice u have rn u probably wont be beating it, u would need to practice more on some of the later bosses. i would suggest practicing the bosses u mentioned, like winged nosk, sly, gpz, markoth, and nkg. i would also suggest doing some practice on bosses like no eyes (her ascended arena can be difficult if u arent familiar with it), white defender, failed champ (well, just the first part before the first stagger since u might be running low on hp coming out of gpz and u want to be confident in getting through failed champ safely), and pure vessel, since those are some rather common run killers as well||
||and i forgot to mention soul tyrant, but u should touch up on that as well, since its very nice to be able to consistently have a good amount of soul going into markoth, since u can use that soul as either damage or healing, and if the markoth fight goes well that soul can cascade into gpz as well||
||how do i get to that relic the fucking tentacles wont let me||
||go to the right, u will obtain an ability shortly||
||Go the other way and get the new ability first.||
||okay thanks .... A lot of practice for a few days
Winged nosk i got 1st try because i watched a video beforehand as pantheon runs take effort
NKG i have practiced a LOT so i have set down but i slip up sometimes is the only issue (not including fireball, that's half luck for me)
I will try no eyes definitely and white defender because sometimes i don't do as well even though i have most of the fight down
Failed champ goes down as long as i get the 1st phase so i will practice that a bit
Pure vessel is another boss i have practiced a lot due to p4 so as long as i concentrate and don't get unlucky with his focus attack heals i can definitely do it
If i can just unlock absrad i may even stop at doing it in HoG because that was my main goal all along
Soul tyrant inital phases are non issue, i feel i tank a little in last phase so i will look up on that a bit||
i alr got it
not sure how it would help
||since its just a dash||
||Dash|| through it.
||IT lets you pass through stuff (enemies)||
It's a new ||dash that makes you immune to damage.||
||wait the dash didnt give iframes earlier?||
so thats why i was taking more hits than i thought i would

||the base mothwing cloak does not give Iframes....yeah
Only ddark and shade cloak gives you iframes if i am not wrong ||
ah
||the hell is this||
|| you need to do the soul - up attack here to upgrate it||
oh yes ||Howling Wraiths||
me too
i've had probably like 30 whole attempts and only made it to || hornet ||
||Zote - Uumuu - Hornet is certainly a combination||
||good luck, and yea getting to abs rad is already an huge accomplishment since u can now practice her in hog, and ull be prepared to beat p5 the next time around. but for bosses that u mostly have down, it never hurts to practice them to build consistency on them, like winged nosk, u got it first try but u should definitely be refining ur strategies for the fight so that u r comfortable going into sly. and for the ascended fights like no eyes and markoth, i would suggest just trying to beat them until u can do ascended once in a while, it doesnt have to be consistent but u should still be aiming for some low-hit clears so that u r confident enough going into the final stretches of p5. and for bosses like nkg and pure vessel, a lot of ppl mess up on them due to nerves, even with tons of practice, so it may be worth it to especially practice those so that u have some leniency even playing with nerves.||
|| I despise god tamer and the collector ||
you can ||train bosses in the room below||

|| I have been 😔 I did uumu in the hall of gods but when i get there in the actual pantheon i always mess up somehow ||
||Gotta kill collector’s spawns ASAP. You should be able to one shot them. Tbh it’s worth even using a shade soul to clear them out ||

Yeah the pressure of doing it in an actual run is a totally different story
||Collector is incredibly easy once you manage to get the hang of the pace. Especially with Quick Slash.||
||Thanks for the tips , i will try my best||
||I used to struggle a lot but not anymore. He's my soul totem.||
|| I swear it cant get worse than p3(except p5), i've taken a look and p4 looks easier(hopefully) but man p3 is something else for me, the hive already takes like half of my masks immediately but then elder hu is a breather, and then after that it's just non-stop action(except grimm). God tamer, Collector, Zote, Uumu AND hornet? ||
||slide on the walls when the electro attack follows u , pray to the RNGod when the electro attack is random , and aim the jellyfishes to uumuu , use an abyss shriek or two when vulnerable||
|| treat god tamer as a watcher knight hybrid||
|| It's practically 50/50 whether or not I die so far, but the thing is, even if I do beat him im at like 2-3 masks and then hornet whoops my ass ||
||git gud at zote||
||GPZ is the biggest thorn for me in p3
P4 was easier for me too
And i wasn't consistent with galien .. .
With enough attempts you will get very used to collector and god tamer such that they don't matter anymore||
||Ngl I’ve beaten all the radiants and beaten p5 but I still struggle with Hive Knight for some reason. He always gets me. ||
|| I never die at zote but he takes up a ton of health for me ||
|| Refreshing to hear that p4 is easier than p3 since I would lose my mind playing that right after p3. ||
Trained ||God Tamer|| for hours and when I fought ||Watcher Knights||, I kept expecting them to bounce off the wall like ||God Tamer|| 😭
||Gotta start mashing ddark on Zote, it works wonders||
|| same , i thought they were bouncier fellas||
|| Ngl i dont even use a single spell on him, it's just nails ||
Just need to practice the final boss of ||p4||
That definitely takes it's share
Not really tbh, ||p4's final boss is way harder than anything in p3.||
The fight is so fucking addicting
|| Is he in the hall of gods after u meet him? ||
Yeah
|| No no overall ||
Yes he is but u need to defeat ||soul tyrant|| and then u meet him, and can train after
And there's ||Markoth||. ||P4|| is easier if you go for ||failed champion|| exploit but without that, idk.
||yeah at first i was very very frustrated but with enough practice i now i can enjoy it and i just couldn't put it down||
It’s actually my favorite boss. Interestingly it was one of the easiest for me to ||radiant|| because it’s difficult but very consistent once you learn the patterns. So much fun to fight
||deadass how did quirrel get here when tf did he get a shade cloak||
||PV and NKG|| both are very fun once you learn to not die in 10 seconds.
Oof i totally forgot about that guy ...... He's bad memories
SAME , i really wanna try against him ||attuned||
He took a detour (ig)
He explains in his dialogue there I think
You mean ||cornifer||
oh
He just had to do some ||acid diving||
||the 3 slash
||
erm accualy he just spawns there
Hornet with those arms
i will get nightmares
🤌
||who needs gorb when you can triple parry PV||
Try to not post gif which contain spoilers 
ok
Does anyone have any tips for ||Grimm||? I went into that battle, and panicked the whole time
||Do a few attempts just to learn his patterns. Learn when you can attack and when you can safely heal. The best times to heal are once during his spike attack and of course during his stagger. You can also heal during the uppercut attack, you just need to dodge the dash and then stand in a safe spot from the fireballs for a heal (next to where he last was before going up). As for the pufferfish attacks, stay calm and you should get used to it. If you need help with something more specific ask.||
Okay, thank you for the info! I hope I get the patterns quick
i've just defeated ||hornet|| but i have no idea where to go now. I've explored all of ||greenpath|| and almost the entirety of ||forgotten crossroads.|| can someone give me like a hint? prefreably like an arrow on the map for where to go.
You probably just missed the two paths that lead further
They is one path forward at the bottom of each area, ||greenpath may be easier to find ? Both aren’t really hidden
Also in case you haven’t, go buy the quill and compass to better locate yourself on the map||
oh, okay then, thanks!
||There are a few ledges in both areas that you couldn't reach before. Like you were a distance too short. But you've got dash now. You know what that means.||
Is there any specific attacks giving you most trouble?
well... i know how to dodge them but
show me your inv
Can you send screenshots
yea
tbh i dont remember
btw dont ||dash through him when he triple slash his hitbox is big and you will end up hitting him again||
you have to position yourself perfectly
ooo|| the pistons in crystal peak i guess||
i ||double jump|| away
but sometimes I get hit when he jumps
why's he jumping for no reason
cause youre far away
spoiler for how to get the upgraded version: ||you need to get across the place in crystal peaks where you drop down to resting grounds, after a dark room||
iirc there are ||2 places with pistons||, it gives you little rewards like geo or ||grubs||, but when you get past them it's basically easier to traverse through the area, that's all
||its a breakable floor||
in a ||subarea||
it's all the way to the right of the ||crystal peaks||
||is there no safe spot in no eyes ascended arena like in the normal or attuned one (centre of bottom floor) ||
dont think so
but watch youtube videos about how to beat it they probably have tips
Damn .... ||No eyes went from an easy fight to a very dangerous one in p5||
The bottom left is pretty safe.
It's not that bad, you can just chase her even less now so it's gonna take even longer. Yay.
||Im not used to dodging those spirits
Plus i totally can't tell if their path will actually hit me or not because for a part they are not going too much vertical but next part they start going a lot more vertical||
I guess i will need way more practice than i guessed
Or do they not do that ?
||help why are most of the bosses in p4 the ones that I'm █ss at😭😭||
can u still die in ||dream bosses ect.. in steel soul?||
you can die in ||white palace, lifeblood core room and radiance fight|| and you don't die against ||dream bosses||
||hog will help you like alot||
ever since i unlocked it i||radiant all of p4 bosses them or most so its all childs play until pv||
Help I accidently glitched my game and I can't take damage
Yes I restarted my switch and the game
Do you have any mods on?
No I'm on switch
That's strange. There's no visual difference on the screen?
Where are you trying to take damage?
No I'm at full masks
help
And soul and it goes down like normal EVERYTHING is normal except I can't get hurt
What happens when you jump into acid or spikes
I have the tear
spoiler it
So nothing
What about the spikes?
how do i open this door? Im 100%
how do I do that on mobile
You don't. There's a way in from below the room.
Not meant to open yet, you'll know when you open it.
when do I know that
I don't want to get rid of the file it's all 109%
Because you'll be on the other side of the door.
You're not meant to access that part yet, it's for later in the game.
Ok
What happens when you jump into spikes? You just stand on them?
I just kinda go into them and onto the floor there on like they don't exist
then what do I do here
YA not so pure ha
That's a first. RIP.
I think I have a plan
Also not for now.
||Go elsewhere, the capital's huge. What have you explored so far?||
uhhh
Spoiler tag please.
SORRY
Archer I just jumped and it just showed black for a second and teliported me back to a platform and I still can't get hurt
Double lines on either side. And yeah, go there.
Ok..
Yeah, seems like you bugged it somehow. When did it start?
And I couldn't get hurt after
Spoilers.

i did it guys
Edit your old messages as well or delete them.
As for the issue, I have no idea. Can you take damage on other save files?
I don't know how I have a switch and it's a downloaded game not physical
I fixed it?
I somehow had sharp shadow on without having it on and I put it on and I get hurt now
How the fuck does this work
I'm at the ||soul master|| fight. Wish me luck
Must be a sign. Silksong tomorrow.
Good Luck
Good luck. Make sure you got good charms on!
I DONT HAVE NO CHARMS
How do you have no charms
idk
How much money you got?
Where'd all your money go, buddy
I never had any to begin with
Just send a pic of your charms
How to i enter the general chats?
Idk
Or do I have to wait for something
Spoiler your images please.
So you really don't have anything. Fret not. Go back to the room right before ||Soul Master||.
@simple island thank you d=(^o^)=b
the image is spoilered
Go up, ||there's a secret room.||
why would I get a new charm when I'm very far from bench
This is pretty funny 
charms early game don’t really matter, you can still very much beat ||soul master with this
But if you are struggling too much, I would advise you to head back to crossroads and explore a bit
There are quite a few merchants that can sell you useful stuff||
Um
You will die to ||soul master|| and your first try
Like guaranteed
You will be back to the bench soon enough 🙂
I'll just fight him
||try to shade skip for any gaps you can't cross and you can get some charms after gruzz mother||
This isn't my first try
||Suggesting newbies to shade skips is a recipe for disaster.||
Are you really telling them to ||shade skip ?
I don’t think they need to do skips in order to beat soul|| master 
I pirated the game before but bought it
Whats the harm in finding the charm?
You die you pogo of it how hard could that be
What are we even talking about right now 
Very
(Slow realization)
Very for people who don't even have ||wayward compass||. They might just die to it and lose whatever money they had.
Well depends on where they are
Well good luck
Thx
Good luck man
Why would you not ? Worst case you walk back through like 5 rooms
Probably haven't found the shortcut if I had to guess
Backtrack's prolly gonna be even more painful
Hay dose anyone else think ||NKG|| is the best boss fight
||Soul Master|| backtrack is a pain for newbies.
D### right
One of the best. ||Sisters of Battle|| is the best one to me.
It is usually not as bad as they think
People tend to scream in pain before just doing the thing and realising it isn’t that bad
But yeah it is probably the worst run back
unc spoiler but yes
Ya for me there ||pantheon 5|| form were ||all 3 attack you at once||
Tbf, it's easier to see it that way when you have a fair bit of experience. Hell, I found ||soul sanctum|| piss easy on my second playthrough after hating it with a passion on my first.
Unc = unnecessary
Ou sorry then
(Usually you talk about unnecessary when you aim them at a person, like « ||man how do I reach cornifer in fog canion, I can’t go through the black gate - so you go to the abyss and then grab shade cloak »
That is an unnecessary spoiler more than just having a separate convo on the side, you can have multiple convos at the same time)||
Does anyone actually like ||winged nosk|| i feel like they needed something to make ||Pantheon 5|| harder
||Skyscraper hit box>:(||


does ||qslash even matter against pv, you barely land a hit or two every opening||
||I guess less but it matters||
does ||p4 give percentage||
Yes
iam 112 hours and 111 %
i have less than an hour to try to kil ||pv||
thats horrible
spoiler tag
How do I do that
||?Yo how do u start the radiant boss challenge? I’ve explored the map as best as possible as I can without help, beat the main dreamer ending, only thing I haven’t done is the other endings and NKG.||
I just did /spoiler
||its in royal waterways bottom left||
Frick nkg aswell I hate the geeza
Cheers
||you will find a chained up tomb use the dream nail on it and you will enter the godhome||
It’s been so long since I’ve done something new! Thanks
put ||shaman stone|| on
are you doing anail only build?
Anal only build 😰
Yeah
oh omakes sense
hey guys so whats a good place to farm geo? im nearly done with the game so thats where i am progression wise
do you have ||quick slash yet||
collosieum
||does fragile greed increase the geo from colosieum? ||
Thank you
||any tips for colosseum of fools? the first trial is a pain in the ass, i've made it to the phase where it spawns the 3 knife thower guys||
||here are my current charms||
||Switch out sharp shadow for soul catcher because it looks your using a spell build||
||brute force it||||
Please edit your message with spoiler tags
Karma police
is honey mustasrd common on burger?
so why mention it?
||why soul catcher, i heard it was pretty bad, also why not sharp shadow cause seems pretty decent cause like shade cloak has iframes and it does a free hit with the nail||
||does negartive damage compred to what you can do||
ah alright
||why not grubsong tho, like grubsong's been more useful to me than soul catcher||
||also go bottom right of kingdoms edge please||
||Soul catcher is very similar to spell twister
It carries around a stigma of being bad but in terms of soul generation it is slightly worst than twister with the upside of being better to heal||
||Grubsong|| is pretty good
If you have some other one notch that you want to use
||you mean hornet? ive already gotten the brand and beaten her, ive gotten shade cloak and abyss shriek too||
||steady body!!!!!!!!!!||
||No like Bottom right||
||all the way right||
Oh this is ||colo ? Then use grubsong and nail master glory
Nail arts are a must in colo
And idk how useful sharp shadow is gonna be
Cuz you ain’t dashing through like primal aspids ||
||Quick slash isn’t gonna help much for colo|| methink
||its good for dps. That is all that matters for coloseum||
||have to kill them fast with spells aswell||
Not at all ?
What is the point of ||faster nail speed when facing enemies which take heavy knockback, fly, and may die in a hit or two ? Killing stuff in one hit is what you do in colo, not hitting them 4 times in quick succession||
At least from my experience
So ||nail master glory and shaman stone|| are peak
For those one shots
fair enough
||i beat no eyes at ascended twice in a row and almost 3rd time right now
Am i ready for p5 no eyes or do i practice more||
||yeah you can do no eyes now||
||gotta go all the way up fro mthe left||
ah alright, ig ill visit it
HOLY SHIT IM ON ONE MASK
||only hate for nail arts||
HELP ME PLEAS
YEAH
Wdy need?
im about to DIE
how to help with the ||parkour||?
Why, dont die
yH
:((((((((((((((((((((((((
it isnt aa tips thing

yep
First jump then walk and dont go into the spikes
:(((((
👍
Then died 2 times
Then won 2 times
😵💫
yeah no i died
Money isnt everything buddy
||Do you spam apells for her?||
||Umm ...do you not know how to get your shade back without risk ?||
NO,
||nail arts
0 spells||
HOW WOULD I KNOW THAT?
||are you doing a nail only play through?||
Who will tell him.... should we tell him ?
?
Yes
know what
Tell me
I have bought all items you can buy and still have 10k without ever even having to grind, you get money for free if you just play the game
ugh fine
surely thats cap
||how did you upgrade to unbreakable stuff||
No but i ||just am not used to spells and panic much in fights so it's kind of out of ny scope unless everything just lines up for the spell||
||spells make fight so much easier||
||have you unlocked any door in dirtmouth with simple key||
no
||yeah to be honest i only got unbreakable strength, but tbh thats the only useful one anyways||
🤔
I will try ...... It's a bit much for me
||they do the most damage in the game and end boss fights faster so less likely you will die||
fair enough
||Do you have spare simple key ||
no
Uffff
||she is irrelevant lol||
i mean not in this case
but normally
she is
Well ..... When you get a spare then we can do something
ok
||if shade in danger just don't rush .... Put soul gathering charms and spell twister. Move cautiously and use spells to avoid threat , keep full health always||
nice
||i tried but it's not fitting unfortunately
Because i have nail build for p5 so spells are weaker plus i need all the soul for healing and not dying in fight
Maybe i will have more soul in p5 when she doesn't do 2 mask damage but for now this will have to do||
i just stumbled across ||deep focus|| without knowing
||should change your charms to include shaman stone||
lol
Where
||What should i set milestone for ascended markoth to be ready for markoth p5
I get to his phase 2 usually when i have gotten hit 3 times
Never survive his phase 2 because of his shield and low health||
||markoth is where spells come in clutch||
😭
lol
it helps you keep distance and dodge
