What is it
||i got spell||
gg
good one
Tenna how dare you
||only 12 more||
can i do this achivment now?
its the secret fight ?
||in hk?||
fight
or other one
just ||fight the hollow knight and see if you get it||
yes
where did you ||start the questline||
like start start
||what should i get for trail of fool||
focus on ||spells and nailarts. So something like shaman, nmg, eater, quick focus.
You can also use soul catcher, grubsong, dwielder instead of eater. it might be better.||
charms that only affect ||the nail such as mark of pride or quick slash are not great in the colo||
||drop compass and steady body for something like dream wielder and nail masters glory and drop MoP for Shamans stone||
Did you get mopped?
what does it mean'
just 2 guys came out
and killed me
after all waves
i forgot their names
already
and broke my charm
|| God Tamer||
They’re last
i hate myslef
i had the same thing happen 3 times when I did it first time!! u'll get it on the next try c:
Do this 
depends on what you prefer!!
oke
i will try
usuing ||spells||
Guys do anyone know how to access pantheon 5 because i finish the first 4 and i didnt unlock the 5th one
Which one?
no idea
||P5|| left I suppose ?
hidden
nah
for what i need ||dream wielder||
First off, please use spoiler tags for everything in game (more info in the pins)
Second off, you did unlock it, but you didn’t find it
Try going up
Oh mb mb
It's pretty well hidden but it's in ||godhome|| somewhere, if you don't wanna find it yourself you can always look it up on youtube
||i did hit the thing on top of p4 but it didnt unlock the block to go upwards||
Hidden… so probably just some second ending to a ||quest ?
Did you do both nailmaster, Grimm and zote endings ?||
First off spoiler tag ||Pantheons and second off go up to the being area, head to the right side and climb up the wall then go to the far right past the hot spring, climb up the wall and you’ll find the P5 access point thing||
||make the jellyfish that are appearing explode on her||
Go up though
Like… upper
i will try this
or i will take|| strenght||
Why ||compass 
use grubsong or something that has an effect
Looks good though ||
Dude ||drop wayward compass for dream wielder||
||Strength is really strong (it does not break on dream fights||*)
but for what
Or ||grubsong||
He’s going ||colos||
i need ||dream nail||
u dont have that???
Oh ||colo|| ?
in fight
yea drop||quick focus there is plenty of room to heal there||
The charm called ||Dream Wielder. It’s right next to Dream Shield. Dream Wielder is really good||
for ||colo ||your main objective should be to one shot everything
So using ||nail arts and spells is a must, so you put on shaman stone and nail master glory, as for the remaining notches it depends, grubsong is amazing in colo, dreamwielder while it may seem niche can let you get back up to full soul by farming the last enemy of any given wave, mark of pride can be good, as is every other soul gathering charm (spell twister, soul catcher…) ||
Don’t use ||quick slash||, it is not that good on ||colo|| specifically you can’t really benefit from it
ik where is it
||qs goated||
but i dont use ||dream nail||
do it
You just said you need it.
Not really for ||colo
Like you aren’t using it to kill primal aspids||
Hitting stuff is hard, so hitting them faster doesn’t help that much
||i will go repair strenght first||
||because compas is goated||
fr
||i didint know shamans stone is this op||
so like this
or shouldi change ||qs||
Pretty much yeah
||i need to start using nail arts bcs i never used it before in combat||
||tbh when your not used to use nail arts you think they are pretty useless when they deal alot more damage||
||use what you like but qslash for the colosseum is not very good. I'd use catcher and grubsong instead||
yeah they are nice in general but especially good in ||the colo||
that build got me through ||colo3||
||to use spelss and arts||
not ideal
please use tags
Idk if its a rly good build but for ||colo 2 and 3|| i used ||child spiders sprint master grubsong and soul catcher||
same one i used but without ||sprint||
||sprint|| is good bc it allow the ||spiders to go faster||
||add grubsong and quick focus imo||
what ||spieders||
i dont have this charm?
||the weaversong|| (i forgot how its called)
you don't
how do i get it
in the worst biome
Real
Its not very good tho
should i change something?
sorry wrong channel
i need it for achivemnt anyways
Why weaversong. Sure it's fun with Grubsong but it's not really good 
||Run master makes the spiders go faster||
||It spawns 3 spiders that deal 1 hit of a level 2 nail||
||No, they do 3 damage
||
||With level 2 you mean old nail is level 1 or 0?||
tags,,,
||The first time your upgrate it||
smh genio
Oh it's help, mv
the age is getting to you
Yes 
it's ok 🫂 👴
||Well, they deal a third of that lmao||
||can someone help me defeating sly||
please use spoiler tags in this channel with two bars on each side ||like this||
oh mb
||that why there are 3..?||
||as general advice:
play very carefully. Only hit him once or twice after each attack, back off and get ready to dodge. Always keep that order. Sometimes he'll do 2 in quick succession though and you won't be able to attack.
You can of course heal on the stagger, however healing is also possible on his triple slash and his jump attack.
For both you need to go far enough away to be able to start healing and dodge the end of the attack before he does it but also not too far away since in that case he just cancels his attack and gets closer. You'll get used to the right distance.
When he does his spin attack you can just camp on a wall.
Generally use your soul for shade soul if you aren't healing and use ddark whenever you're in the air or on a wall and wanna get down but don't know how to not get hit. The iframes it gives are great for such situations.
That's kinda it. Mainly remember the 2 hits in between each of his attacks.
Is there anything specific you struggle with. Have you reached the second phase yet?||
Also i got a question ||is sly is p5?||
||ive reached the second phase||
well that one is incredibly easy if you know the strat
any charm suggestions?
||basically if you have soul step to the side and shriek at the start. After that just charge a nailart, wait for him, dash away, turn around and hit him. Use spells whenever you have soul.|| Here is a video by anika showcasing it:
||I recommend shaman stone, strength, qslash, steady body, nailmaster's glory or grubsong.
You can tweak some things if you like. For example catcher, shape of unn or even twister are good instead of the last two as well. Quick focus is also fine instead of shaman stone since this fight isn't usually super spell heavy. However, if you are doing the pantheon as well I recommend you keep shaman stone for it||
||should i use sharp shadow||
Hey justice for ||sharp shadow||
better but a lot worse than most ||damage charms so not that great either||
||You dont need that, it takes up way too many notches and doesnt make you stronger or anything||
You can like it or dislike it. It's not good tho
^
But its cooll
ok ty ill try it
As I said it's fine if you like it and luckily you can use whatever you want
No, it's just ||3 is a third of 9||
henlo, am doing the ||delicate flower quest, can u guide me with what charms should i use?||
||there id actually use mop and sharp shadow, bc these give you more reach and make it easier to dodge things. Also you can use shaman and twister, so you can kill enemies that might hurt you in advance||
you don't need to ping specific people. You can just ask in this channel
clean the path u wanna take before actually doing the quest
yooo tysm fr
ur him
i did it
you beat ||sly or the pantheon?|| GG either way 
||alright so i opened this coffin in the trash pit, it gave me some god attuner, what does that do? Also i dream nailed the corpse and it took me to some godhome place and there are these things with boss icons (i think) on them, what do i do here. Theres also this hall of gods thing as well||
guys im doing ||speedrun 1 after beatin lurien do i save log or what||?
||the place is very late or post game. I recommend going there once you have really done everything else. It is for refighting bosses and the hardest challenges in the game. The god tuner automatically unlocks bosses and challenges inside the godhome once you beat them in the normal game so nothing to worry about for now||
||dreamers give you a hard save so you're just gonna teleport back to Lurien lol||
ah alright
||any tips for trial of the warrior? Rn i have all the shade spells and my nail is at its coiled stage rn. Also this is an old screenshot and i have unlocked flukenest and dreamweilder as well||
||the big obobbles are giving me a lot of trouble||
should I use controller or keyboard or keyboard and mouse?
all are equally good. Use what you prefer
ok thx
||sly lol ||
any tips for ||pure vessel|| ive been trying for a solid 3 hours to do ||pantheon 4|| and theyre my only issue
ive been using keyboard and mouse and its pretty good, havent played on controller tho
either way use whatever you’re more comfortable with
practice him
niiiice
||These charms are very good, though I'd change a few tiny things: Sprintmaster isn't great so I'd use nailmaster's glory instead. Generally nailarts are super strong in the colosseum so try using them as much as possible.
If you want you can also use shape of unn and catcher instead of grubsong and qfocus. I personally find shape of unn a lot stronger for the colosseum and catcher is great as well. What you are using works fine though and just using nmg instead of sprintmaster is also enough of a change||
GG 
have you beaten the game?
this needs tags actually
alr, also i heard ||flukenest and dreamweilder were good charms too, should i use those?||
||normal and hornet help||
||dream wielder is great. You can use that if you want. It can be stronger than grubsong if you use it enough. If you don't use it a lot stick with grubsong||
||i think i should get all charms or so,rthing||
||also ive mainly been using great slash and cyclone slash, should i be using dash slash too or is it fine||
||flukenest is bad||
aight
oh, windette said it was the best charm ingame tho
|| what is the difference between the radiance absolute radiance ||
||dash slash is situational. You shouldn't try using it more. Use it if you wanna use great slash but the enemy is farther away||
aight
windette says a lot of wrong things
oh
||radiance is a lot easier. Attacks are a bit different, one more phase, slightly different arena... etc||
||what does flukenest do again i forgot||
||turns your fireball into multiple small projectiles with a short range. It was broken for a while and partly still is but only really for speedruns because of a glitch. It's not good for a casual player and especially not for the colo||
ah alr
i need to do this
Y’all is hk any good to play on a controller
i play controller
||it is another ending so you can do that. Other than that just get all charms, masks, vessels etc and then if you have everything you can do godhome||
yes. It doesn't matter if you play ok kb or controller
||i only donbt have all charms||
I recommend getting them. But do what you want
not sure but you can just send an image and I'll tell you
|| for farming geo, which trial is the best one to do so in the collosum of fools? ||
2
oka ty
do you want hints or the exact locations?
|| is there a site for like charm builds? i feel like my charm build is hot ass ||
this channel is the site
fair lol
i just dont know what to use || a sword build or spell build ||
im currently || using a spell build ||
the best ones are a mix of both
i thinks that a sword build is easyer to use
||nail might be simpler but it also doesnt do as much damage, spell might do more damage but its also less reliable||
you should find, a middle ground
||- right before the boss room in soul sanctum there is a hole in the ceiling
- in greepath there is a path on the right wall of the rightmost column of the 3 main ones in the middle
- in forgotten crossroads a breakable wall / ceiling in the path above the stag
- in crystal peak a breakable wall to the left one room below the path that leads to dirtmouth
- in fungal wastes in the room below queen's station
- in greepath at the lake of unn||
once i finish this || trial of fools im doing rn || could you help me make a good build?
yes he can 
sure, just send a screenshot of your charm inventory and well help
now i cant, blame nonsenf
😾
gg 
but what?
il just type it quick the remove it cuz i can t find the spoiler key
so i had to od it 3 times.
don't do stuff like that please
still good job!
both these messages need tags too
my laptop doesen t have the spoiler thingy and i don t have it pasted.
you can just /spoiler at the start of the message
also I doubt it doesn't have it
@rain sierra if you cant use tags simply dont send the message, this is a warning
||does dreamnailing the kingsmoulds give anything else? i was trying it for a while||
menacemoil
also i just learned how to tag my messages srry.
alright so here's my current build
rn what i have left to do is || radiance and the grim content ||
|| any charm suggestions for p3?||
i dont know what it is cause this is actually my first playthru and im goin blind but || i think there is something called pantheon tho i dont know what it is ||
I would probably switch ||soul eater for strength, then you can either add steady body or dream wielder in the last spot, or remove spell twister and add quickslash||
so whatever charms i need for that too
||You are missing one notch though||
oh also i dont think || i have all the notches, i think i get one from grim ||
Indeed
||you going for the ritual with grimm or the other thing, if you know what that is||
||it would be ideal if you could fit both quickslash and spell twister, or grubsong and another one notcher||
|| ritual ||
can someone help me
should i || try to get the last notch before i continue to radiance? ||
is this jump possible?

oki
||not exactly a jump||
||dash ik||
||it requires crystal heart but if you re really good 4 fire balls with spell twister to do stall balls could work with dash master||
||but is it possible||
|| can someone help me with beating soul master i have vengeful spirit and the up spell thing but i dont know if i should attack when its staggered||
Why would they add something you cant access like that
||You should use that opportunity to heal, also please delete or edit your previous message||
||@rain sierra please try not to send people to external sources specially one as spoilery as youtube, theyre asking here for a reason and telling them to just look it up is rude||
ik i already got this answer but i jus wanna confirm || so im trying to 100% the game according to steam, which means i need to do 112%, so do i need to defeat zote and white defender all times for 112%? ||
No
if you wanna yeah, ||the last charm notch can be useful if you wanna equip a 2 notch charm like long nail or smth, or another 1 notch charm like grubsong||
Dont even need them once actually
||do i do damage if i hit the soul master when hes staggered with howling wraights ||
no
defeating them once gives the achievement
i already || beat them both a few times, also i do need to do them atleast once since i am going for all steam achaivements ||
|| oh well i kinda wasted my time but its all good ||
||Yes, but its way safer to heal since youre going to have mor attack oppurtinities than heal ones outside that||
That yes
||but if i use the howling wraights thing with shaman stone it does massive damage||
i actually forget, is this an offical hk discord?
||also do you have nay reccomended charm build?||
The most official youll get, the devs dont run the server but they are in here and the owner and one admin are playtesters
i feel like him rn
Thats true yes
wait thats actually so cool
||guys im speedrunning, any idea how to hit this skip||?
Can you send a spoiler tagged screenshot of your charms
Id outright tell you to go to the speedrunning channel but thats dead more often than not so probably #hk-discussion has better strats that what i could ever give you
||like i even have dreamshield from going in crystal peak and falling down i never really tried to beat soul master||
Well this is an incredibly nonlinear game, what you think is all is not nearly close
||well its on my console so i have all slys charms counting the ones with the shop key, i have all salubra charms, and i have grubsong, long nail, baldur shell, dreamshield, thorns of agony, the one where it releases smoke when focusing, and mark of pride||
||mark of pride, grubsong, shaman, steady body, quickfocus are all good charms||
||you said you were using wraiths so shaman is a must||

||i don t know how to exactly explain the boss so i told them the explanation i had in mind since it explains it much better than if i just type it.||
||also how id steady body good?||
||if you want to do more damage, mark of pride, if you need health, quickfocus, then add grubsong||
||ok thanks!||
||for grounded enemies mostly, allows you to get more consistent hits and make you have more control of your character||
||ok. also i got the elegant key and went in to get smth i dont know what im trying to get but i died from the soul warrior how do i kill it and get my soul back||
||if you cant help then dont say anything, its better than having someone be spoiled unnecessarily||
I suggest you read the pinned messages of this channel
||is the soul trapped in the room with the boss? If so your best chance is probably to get there with some soul and use vengeful spirit to kill it from outside||
||ok yeah should i try to get whatevers behind the elegant key door||
||also the moment i enter the room the soul warrior attacks me||
Definitely
Oh then
||yeah so i want to kill it but it has so much health||
||can you tell me whats behind it||
i think its better if you find out as a nice surprise
but if you really really want to know, ||an upgrade for vengeful spirit||
||ohhhh ok thx||
||does our character get sealed or something in the base ending by the way? all i see is some chains but still don t get it fully.||
pretty much yeah
k.
||i cant find crystal peak one||
can you send an image of your map?
||yo how do i get to godhome?||
If I remember correctly, ||the entrance is somewhere to the west of Royal Waterways||
ty
thx
i think its not channel for mods
@shut sparrow do you know anything about pale court mod?
||do you mean a skin of Grimm?||
I've done most of it, yes. Been a while tho. Let's talk about mods in #modding-discussion tho
||pale court|| needs tags as well btw
||hey is there another ending aside from getting sealed?||
yea lets go there iam lil lost
||it's a skin. You can download all kinds of skins with the mod "custom knight"||
||yeah, there are several||
Please move modding related questions to #modding-discussion
||i should find godhome now ?||
ye u need the void heart then dream nail as hornet holds down the vessel then u need to fight a boss called radiance
oh okay thanks piuxie
||i have all charms vessels and masks||
yeah definetely
where do i look for this place
||i dont like it there but you need it for 112% i suppose||
ofc
Hello, please spoiler ur message as per channel rules
||waterways, look for a breakable wall on the left side||
How do I find the soul for that guru guy
what
||i have 108% i only got godhome left?||
||to the right of the map||
Thx Nuno
||If you haven't done any pantheons yes||
||i will need atelast 30 hours for all of them probbaly||
||yes, the last percents you can get are all in godhome||
np
||i only did two and was so annoyed by them that i started a new save to get all the achievements||
On my other save file, (I try not to use the internet) what's the 3rd to lats location of Mr Mushroom
i will try my best to do them
but still idk
gl 🙏
||imo the first two are totally fine, actually i did the second first try, but three is a pain, and four even more i suppose||
||these are bindings. Bindings make it more difficult. You can either do them individually or all at the same time for a harder challenge. Doing no bindings of course also counts as beating the pantheon. To be specific:
- nail binding: makes you deal ~40% less damage with your nail
- shell binding: limits your health to 4 masks (can be increased with charms)
- charms binding: takes away your ability to use any charms
- soul binding: limits your soul vessel to 33 which is 1/3 of the main vessel or one heal||
||so i can do it without bindings and still get %?||
yes
||it's just for fun, for a visual change, and also to unlock a specific other place that isn't necessary either tho||
any tips which|| charms|| should i use ?
how many ||notches|| again?
||generally strength, shaman, qslash and then whatever you like. I think steady body + grubsong/nailmaster's glory/dream wielder is best but things like shape of unn, soul catcher or spell twister are good alternatives||
||will i lose strenght if i die here?||
||quick focus and stalwart shell are also quite good but other than that the rest is pretty much never awesome||
no
have fun 
yeah the third is where it really ramps up in difficulty!
|| any charm suggestions for p4?||
and somehow that entices me to do them
why you may ask?
if i die twice without taking the soul do i lose geo
Yes
Your ||shade|| is what holds your geo when you die
So if you ||die while that's still out, welp say goodbye to that moolah||
dang
Yeah, kinda screwed if ya do, because if ya wanna get everything, you need that geo
i cant find the || dreamnail guy in city of tears|| any hints of where it is
Wdym ||dream nail guy?||
||dreamer|| maybe?
||the shop with the upgraded nail||
Oh the ||nailsmith||?
||Pantheons 1 and 2 All Bindings||
Got it :3!
I getcha
Man I can't even do ||p3 no charms binding||
I can't imagine what the other ones are like with all ||BINDINGS||
Well, ||p3 is fine||
if I didn't choose to be a nice person
LOL SAME 😭
I don't regret it
You mean you do?
But i wish that the ||godseekers|| didn't add a ||FAKE GOD INTO THEIR GODSEEKING||
Yeah, I assume he snuck his way in
nuh uh it's not even his fault 😭
Probably yeah
||I shoulda let him die||
NOOOOO 😭 that's meanie
He's bein' a meanie
||p3 would not be as much of a challenge if he wasn't there||
And then ||p4 is just hard, there's really nothing to make it easier||
I am not even attempting the last with all these restrictions at once
I am doing them slow and steady one at a time for that one
|| yo dou got a charm suggestion for p4 ||
YES
Real but u can practice
Gosh I'm scared to get there after this one
||AB|| must be one helluva thing to do
The only reason I'm doing ||bindings|| is to get ||lifeblood|| for the normal ||p5||
I skip words sometimes lol
Fair, it's not that difficult but i feel like ||lifeblood|| is gonna assist anyway
Do you have to do all bindings?
Nah just one at a time
Also, another reason ||I'm doing bindings in the first place is for the secret with it||
I meant do you have to do all ||bindings||, like all of them must be done right?
For what?
For the ||secret, yes, but not all at once||
Like you can do ||four runs of each pantheon with one binding each and that'll still work||
For ||lifeblood?|| Or is one enough? 
8 to unlock ||lifeblood.||
12 for another mask, 16 for another. Caps at 5 masks.
Basically
Ok thx
Do u guys think it's best if I get more
||masks and charms and stuff before I try ascending and radding things?||
Of course. Get all there is to get before doing that.
First what?
||phanteon||
||Dream nail the statue to fight nightmare king.
And you need to do pantheon 4 for Pure Vessel.||
K thanks I've alr done some tho :p but the ez ones
Well, yeah, you have like no gear from what I saw last time.
i have evtyrhing now
anyone in particular you struggle with?
||You're still missing a mask. You might be missing other upgrades too.||
Indeed
My best recommendation, is get everything in ||Hallownest before even attempting Godhome||
Because it's brutal
Everything? Then just practice the bosses ||in hall of gods||.
Indeed, or, go get that final mask
I also see a missing ||soul vessel.||
||how to get here?||
i need kill this?
||Floor below the pantheon doors has the door to hall.||
In ||royal waterways, need a simple key, should be bottom left||
||i have god hom,e||
|| fucking slimes bro, ITS FUCKING SLIMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES||
For full content, yes.
Oh, mb

but now, i need?
||Pantheon 5||
Ye
i need kill this now? @short kettle
It's a ||boss rush, whaddya expect||
No, whenever you want.
Come back when you have more stuff, sure.
Oh, that can be annoying, what I'd recommend is to ||fire a fireball towards uumuu when there's a jellyfish behind it and it'll explode and follow you, but since uumuu is in the way, it'll hit that||
||I was going crazy man, there are 15 fucking slimes fucking me over man||
Yeah, ||lost kin is best fought way later||
Its a hard fight, yes. Don't stress it.
I've done nearly all content and it's that one random boss I still fumble against.
how many lives he have bro
Same bro, ||this most recent playthrough, in my entire time 112%ing it, I only died once, and it was to him, but that's because I fought him a little early||
After ||pv|| my reaction improved to the point I can almost do them hitless
||I do radiant NKG and PV for fun now||
Fr
i try kill this?
Ye
||should i do ascended to?||
Yeah, try to find it.
Depends, who ya tryin'?
||HoG isn't required for 112% just for practice, so I'd recommend just doing attuned until you get consistent||
oke
||Bosses in first 4 Pantheons are attuned difficulty so you don't need to but you can try. If you can beat a boss confidently at ascended, you'll have no worries about attuned.||
Just a ||journal entry really, that's optional||
||and yet I've done the entirety of HoG Radiant like 3 times||
Don't ask me why
||my plan is
do [steel soul, steel soul 100%, speedrun 100% in 20 hrs] in my 100% ss run
then do [speedrun in 10 hrs, speedrun in 5 hrs] in a speed run
is this possible or do i need to individual runs for each achivement||
...
super possible
||gruz fly||
||Gruz Mother?||
yup
Yeah, the arena is kinda shit
you might even accidentally get sub 10 hours in your first run
Lol
||so there is even harder version of nkg?||
No, ||NKG is the hardest he gets||
I'm surprised they don't change the arena for ||Traitor Lord|| on ||ascended.||
modded 
Just the ||different difficulty settings in HoG||
Main game ||Traitor Lord is more annoying than Godhome Traitor Lord.||
Cz of that narrow arena
Eh, kinda, the ||only difference is the mantis fights beforehand||
||and yet I still die to him like 4 times in p4ab||
Is it? Feel like there is way, way more room to jump in the ||godhome arena.||
The arena might be a tad bigger there, but I'm not sure
Can I share a screenshot of where I'm currently at and how I need help?
He's the first boss I did hitless.
if you spoiler tag it, yes
With tags sure
Ok right thanks one second
||I just completed the parkour to enter the City of Tears. I have no idea where to go though. I met Hornet at the fountain and watched the short cutscene and went through the dialogue, but after that I was just wandering around not knowing where to go. I travelled back to the entrance where I originally came in. I don't have a map for this area yet. I just want to get on track and figure out what to do. Maybe one of y'all could give me directions or guide me through it? Thanks.||
Iirc, you should be ||able to find cornifer around the top of city||
||Take a good look to the right when riding the elevator outside||
||You must have reached the long elevator that takes you to the lowest floor? Have you?||
||They have since they've seen the cutscene at the fountain||
||https://youtu.be/YSSgM_-yHyw|| you can skip to like 10 seconds before the end
From where the video cuts just continue going by platforming on the platforms in the sky
I never took any elevator. I completed parkour across one of the acid lakes and made my way into this area after putting the City Crest I got from the False Knight into the statue's chest there.
||The elevator you used to reach the floor where the fountain is, further down that road.||
Let me check real quick
Also, spoiler tags on everything please.
there’s more to do higher up in the area
yeah
||p1 ends on them?||
Yes
That image is not spoiler tagged
it is
How do you get more health? Does that come later in the game?
That image is spoiler tagged
mask shards
||I wouldn't click on messages not directed at you||
me when (edited)
Accidentally didn't make it a spoiler
||Should I go right or left from this point?||
Why would you not click on messages not directed to them? /j
Could've been solved if you took a look here 😔
For those who are currently helping me out 👆
left has one room, right and up has several
||Yes. Take the elevator again. Notice what's to the right while you're on your way up. Reach out for it.||
Ok thanks.
Let me check it out real quick
||This?||
Can't believe choom would incorrectly 
any tips on them?
i thought he was saying to take the elevator back up to ||qbench|| 
I think yes, not sure tho
Take a proper look when you are around here on the elevator
No. ||On your way up. there's a platform you can see while the lift is moving. You are not bound to the lift, jump out and dash to the platform.||
If only someone made a video that contained exactly that
Its okay, we appreciate you
lol

Ok got it thanks a lot
Dark grublove is the better grublove
Just keep heading right and I'm set?

low res grubnote
You'll not run out of ways if you keep exploring, yes. There's a lot to explore.
HK is a pretty big game
Ok thanks a lot lol
By the time you do run out, you'll have an idea on where to go next.
Ye
henlo, after i defeat the ||hollow knight, the game will end right?
i get sealed right?
i have to start new file?||
No.
Yes yes no
You can replay your save file over and over. There's a lot, lot more to do than just beating ||the hollow knight||.
thanks
How do you get more soul health? I still only have the base 5.
||Mask (your health) shards are all over the map, usually guarded by some challenge of some sort like a fight or a platforming challenge. Or you can buy some mask shards from Sly (a shopkeeper in dirt mouth)||
Oh ok
Guys how tf do i get out of ||crystal peaks without lantern?||
||bruh its pretty funny that i needed like hour to do p1 but now i did p2 first try||
||you can't skip the credit?||
Can someone tell me how I can make the achievements appear as a platinum in the unofficial hollow knight?
huh
No. You don't get the achievements if you do.
ayo?
i defeated them and said that way easy
then i was shot 57 times
Which fight
"answer the champion call"
Hah
they all crashout after they reach 50%hp
||there is 4 phanetons or 5?||
there is both
||"You thought the hardest thing I could give you was the flower quest? Think again, bitch."
— Ze'mer||
fr
i need to do 5 for 112%?
nope
4?
4
yes
i need to cook a cheesy build
||i will to do p3 today ||
iam not fighting this bs
||If you get the new charms, strength and fury, you can kill Hegemol during his spawn animation if you're at 1 hp lmao||
You can't cheese the last one, I don't think. It just requires insane dodging skills no matter what at the very least.
Wdym?

i mean iam playing against isma and wd
dumb question but how do you beat ||radiant nosk||
Ah, I thought u were further in
i will go get the last charm hopefully it matters
he keeps ||pausing for the infection attack|| when i'm not expecting it at all so i'm running into him
there IS MORE
Platforming hell? Good luck.
Lmao, what do you think
You have no idea what's after, buddy
WAIT A SEC
do i have to fight all of them with wd
no
no
Nah
thank good
||White defender and isma are canonically besties so they fight together||

The rest fight alone one by one.
i will atrain her
💀
how hard is it to get the last charm
||is there any specific bulid for p3 or should i stay with mine?||
||dont be near the middle, be near the sides, like not hugging the wall, but like about 1/4 of the arena from the sides. this is cuz nosk constantly stops or jumps to the middle to do the infection spewing attack so its best to just stay out of the middle to prevent getting hit from contact damage when he goes for that. and dont chase him too much when he runs across the arena since u might get caught in the middle of the arena when he jumps towards the middle for the infection spewing attack and get hit||
||If it's the platforming one, very hard. I think it's been called harder than pop but I won't vouch for that. I have no idea.||
|| just accidentally killed mr nail forger after i upgraded is he gone for ever?? ||
nice
Yes
yes
He wanted you to ||kill him, no dialogue.||
oh hes kinky
But if you saved him, you did get dialogue later.
ohh
Now you can find his corpse in another location. Enjoy.
😢 || also can i get money for redoing fools coli ||
Yep
how much do you get for the 2nd and 3rd?
2k and 3k
oh alright thanks
||this white fluffy guy is an ending?||
What
Where are you fighting him?
||is it a "bright" enemy||
Do the 3rd one before ||godhome.||
||only know about radiance one||
It's the one that's the good stuff.
For the others you do ||godhome|| ye
oh
What ||2 endings|| have you done
||normal hk and hk with hornets help||
||Do the radiance one then. You don't need godhome for that.||
||Same fight but when Hornet comes in and brings hollow knight down, you dream nail his head.||
||Instead of attacking him with your nail. That's why she's there, to crack his head open and let you access his mind.||
oh
i got my whit efluffy guy
but
||why did i lost my charm after losing with him||
i mean ||fragile strenght||
||It's a fake dream idk||
She's just that strong
its she??
Yes
||how its hk a male then radiance is she||
Because they are different characters?
well you were right
i cant do the first part
why god why
||which charms should i use on her||
||Radiance is the "big bad" forgotten queen of Hallownest. She was forgotten after Pale King came and so she started the infection to ruin his kingdom. That's why he created the Hollow Knight, to trap Radiance in his head.||
wow
||Also, Hollow Knight is technically neither he nor she. It's an "it"||
Of the platforming?
that is a shortcut
yea
Yes, mossbag's full hollow knight lore.
It should be the first result.
nice
omg decomaster
||Quick Slash, Mark Of Pride, Shaman Stone, Spell Twister if you don't have Unbreakable Strength||
ty
||Yeah, you need dashmaster.||
Then simply execute it smh
The slash?
i feel like iam doing something wrong
Uh what...?
smh
What?
||Make it so your dash ends roughly when you go through the shade wall, then you have plenty of time||
and when i slash i hit the thing again
who the fuck
design this
@ zal make better mods next time
Among other people
Mod time
i need vocal guide so i can know what iam doing
||What's that symbol up in Dirtmouth?||
please tag that
||Black Egg Temple. You get notified of the icon when you interact with the fountain in City.||
It's an important location you'll return to much later.
please use tags
too lazy to edit
||I'm here and the three lights on the egg are lit. Is that something that affects the game now or, like you said, even later on?||
what
||Later on. You'll get an idea of when you need to go there. For now, you've got way more to do.||
||Try dashing while staying close to the left wall so you can cling to it. That resets your dash.||
Ok makes sense. Thanks.
Doing ||path of pale|| before ||path of pain|| is certainly a choice.
what should i do in phase 2?
for ||radiance?||
||Reach the platform where she always first spawns and swing your nail upwards like crazy. You won't need to jump to do it I believe. If you're full on soul, spam abyss shriek as well. Apart from that, don't chase her around too much and focus on dodging. Use dive if you must to dodge attacks.||
unequipping ||mop|| is a start
why
||she always spawns somewhere else||
i need help
Well you can ask, this is quite the place for it
||grimm||
Great question
sigh any tips for ||p4ab?
imma boutta pull my hair out||
||nor can you with mark of mride. Radiance is probably the single worst boss to use mop on. And mop isn't even super good for the others either. There is only a single spot in phase 2 that you don't need to jump on if you have mark of pride. For every other spot and every other phase you still need to jump no matter if you have mop or not so it literally doesn't make a difference.
Radiance doesn't have a hitbox that can hurt you either so you can just jump as high as you want without mop. Charms that actually help you deal damage, heal, give soul or help you with spells are much more worth it||
which part
all
First tip :
don’t do it
Seriously pretty sure no one here has done something as hard as ||p4ab||, you probably aren’t gonna find relevant tips here
Fair
Maybe nonsenf has actually
I have :ponder:
do yall have nay tips for ||grimm?||
( soulponder )
Any specific attacks you are struggling iwth
anything to recommend?
I'm gettin' ma ass handed to me by everyone
so what should i get instead
\
The boss is one of a couple which force you to slow down
Basically you have no ||choice but to dodge each of their attack, and then hit them like once
You can’t go faster than the music
So take your time to learn how to consistently dodge each move
And if you can’t dodge a particular move, ask for a tip here||
I’m in the ||crystal peaks|| but everywhere i go needs like a double jump or smth or that ||crystal flying thing||
if youre doing ||radiance|| (i think so atleast just based on what im seeing),i recommend a spell build
||Quick focus could work, maybe soul catcher and steady body/grubsong||
ideally you use ||strength|| but yeah
i see why
nail is very hard ti use
in this fight
Anyone know where I should go
Well, the ||crystal heart thing is found in crystal peaks||
i would go ||shamans,spell twister,soul catcher|| and ||abyssal shriek|| to win
no its not any specific attack its just hard to get in hits and heals what about charms?
||qs ||should stay?
Yeah but I’ve explored everywhere that I can as some areas are too dark or need double jump
I'm pretty sure ||crystal heart doesn't need lantern it should be around the bottom right of crystal peak iirc, or like middle bottom right||
||i wouldnt recommend grubsong since radiance does 2 masks of damage so itll barely give anything,also remove qs and put on soul eater and go full spell damage||
There are going to be more dark areas, it's suggested to buy the ||lumafly lantern from sly in Dirtmouth and explore the dark rooms. They have good rewards to collect.||
tysm
Alr thx, I’ll look there
Please delete the image as it isn't spoiler tagged
Hopefully I can also find the exit…
Well, if you ||find crystal heart, you should be able to leave||
@short kettle PURE LUCK
Wow
Wtf is this
My map doesn’t have any ||bottom corner right|| I havnt explored-
Hmm, show with tags
||Well I can give you the general advide:
- firstly do p3ab first imo. I personally find it mich easier. Secondly do the bindings individually first imo. They prepare you well for all at once.
- Use spells as often as possible. And I mean really. Focus on using a spell every 3 hits if possible. It's ok if you forget it but generally that's what you wanna aim for. You might think you need it for healing but you don't. What tends to happen is people keep their soul waiting for the perfect time to heal thinking it's right around the corner missing out on a lot of potential damage. If you wanna heal you're always simply 3 hits away from getting full soul. So use spells, if you take damage continue using them until you actually are about to be able to heal and then get the soul necessary if you don't already have it and heal.
- use a lot of nailarts. Your main attack should normally still be the normal nail and spells. Still for many bosses nailarts are great and you should really keep them in mind. Like half the bosses get a lot easier when you use them well. (e.g. obblobbles, collector, markoth, no eyes etc.)
- practice the bosses you struggle with in the hall of gods. If you play on pc you can just use mods. If you play on a console you either just practice charmless and only using spells/healing every 3 hits or you create a separate file with less upgrades and items.
- make sure you know when healing is possible on each or at least most bosses. With just 4 hp and not a lot of soul healing is even more important.
That's it methinks. Again, anything in particular or a specific boss you struggle with?||
you mean the visual glitch? Idk. Does is stay there, is it only in hk or on your monitor, have you tried closing and reopenig the game?
It only shows up when i hit something
Ill try that though
Well, I've gotten ||decent at traitor lord, he still gives me issues sometimes, white defender is a 50/50 if I struggle with, sometimes he cooks me, and sometimes I do fine, enraged guardian is just a bitch all together, lost kin just kinda take a while, no eyes is just a waiting game, failed champion is just aggressive, he sometimes slams his mace down at point blank, so I can't react to that, but everything else is fine, markoth is decent, I mainly use dash slash to hit him, and the farthest I've got is watcher knights because I had a bad markoth fight||
||also the only reason I'm not doing p3ab first is because of GPZ||
that's likely because you're not used to it
very reasonable,i hate ||gpz||
||gpz|| isn't so bad once you learnthe fight
Closing and re opening worked thx!
You're right, ||he isn't bad, his minions are horrendous||
Because you can't kill them with one swing
They take several
||shriek as soon as they spawn||
if I have the soul
But that actually wouldn't be a bad idea to save my soul for that

you can hit him 3 times while ||he spawns them so you should always have the soul||
as I mentioned in my message: never save your soul
Well, if I have it i mean
||i|||| hate spells so much||
Understandable, they are a drastic change from just swinging at people until they die
Yeah, I'll still ||send a shade soul or ddark him occasionally||
i just locked in
Plus, ||now that I think about it, his minions do tend to stay in the air a lot, so if I have no soul, just smack him to get it and more often than not the shriek will catch them||

New strategy achieved, time to test it
ideally not "occasionally" but after every 3rd hit
Yeah, just requires a bit more thonking from my brain to rember that
which is a challenge innit of itself
||I HATE HER SO BAD||
also ||ddark||when he falls from the ceiling after falling through the grounf. You need to time it tho||
I found it, thx.
Well, ||usually I don't have that many issues with that attack, because I can kinda see a general area of where he falls so I don't dash straight into him, and then just do a tight single jump over the shockwave||
But that could be a consistent place to use a ||spell|| if need be
||SHE IS 10 TIMES HARDER THAN NIGHTMARE GRIMM HOW PEOPLE KILL THIS||
Practice

||ddark is way easier and deals damage though. You have time to hit 3 times afterwards as well so it doesn't even really use any soul||
But, is there any specific attacks you struggle with?
Alright, alright
please tag ||spell||
also any time to use one is consistent
|| how i am supposed to use spells when she is always atacking||
||and it takes so much times to fight her||
||fc only has 2 attacks and he can use them a maximum of 3 times in a row. If you pay attension to it you can't get surprised by an attack of his||
she takes breaks after most attacks
I know you're frustrated but i really just takes more practice rn. You'll get the hang of it
sorry, thought it was part of the exceptions, will fix
I HATE THIS BOSS
So, some things I've noticed in practicing him
||uhhhhh, apparently every time I use a spell, he does the attack that would be best to use a spell on, so I don't have enough,
Second, erm, abyss shrieks aren't killing them, and I'm hitting them like 2 to 3 times with it
And third, I'm focusing too much on killing the minions that I'm not paying attention to the fat fuck||
Well, what I've noticed is that he has a ||tendency to do the grounded slam attack after he empty hops to somewhere, so im not expecting him to finish doing an air slam and then immediately do a ground slam||
||what should i leave out for steel soul 100%
its 105 currently
included p1-p4 becasue if you die it doesnt end the run
i dont want to miss out on shards or useful charms
and im going for 20 hr 100 percent speedrun||
||can i pratice radiance in hall of gods?||
