there is no rng 
stfu
i can
it's true 
the problems is
is most of my ||p5 runs i kill obblobes hitless but in radiant||
nah
so tanky
and no soul

at the start of ||the oblobbles fight i like to go towards one of them and slash at them, if that obbloble's start direction is towards the wall itll force it to turn around, then u can safely go behind them. so for example i like to head left first so ill use this as an example, u start the fight by heading left and slashing at the left oblobble on its right side. if its initial direction is left then itll turn towards u, otherwise if its initial direction is right then itll continue its direction. so after that nail swing the left oblobble is gauranteed to be going right, which gives u a free opportunity to go all the way to the left while the left oblobble is going right. u can also head right and slash at the right oblobble, it doesnt matter||
TF mannn
||that's really good to know about but that's too much for me to do during a battle
Alright i wont attack from behind too, i also stay in the corners but sometimes I can't see myself and i get hit
I really cant do anything about it if they split apart i can only use my shade soul but it barely pushes them back, on the topic of shade soul it sometimes pushes them far and sometimes barely any knockback
And i have no idea how to perform a dash slash, i had to do radkoth without it literally lol
Alr alr I'll use that build I'll need range with my nails since i hate attacking them from closes||
I did them lol
I don't have time today but if u want I can make a video tomorrow 
|| guys how i put "godhome"||
i can make a vid if needed lol
no no no its fine
I'll just pray i get lucky one day at the last ||obobble||
I really have no idea when or how to attack the last one
it's not really a big deal but alr
stay on one side and then whenever it gets close right before you switch sides
||yeah i use that to stay behind them, but i honestly get hit way sooner before i try changing their directions or anything||
||Those who panic and jump into a spit||
it's one of the hardest ||radiant|| fights as well so if you have many others left you might as well wanna do them first
||i like to use dash slash for when theres one left, u get to keep ur distance while still being able to get damage in||
||uuh i think i did the hardest radiant fights? Absrad pv nkg sly markoth and the rest of the dream warriors||
Im not sure if im missing another one
But so far doing them is my main goal
||gpz is another difficult one. That's kinda it tho||
||oh yeah gpz too, it didn't take me as long AS THESE FAT ASSES||
hm I'm sure you'll get it soon
||i mean tbh oblobbles is like top 5 in hardest radiant fights, its definitely not an easy task at all. but im sure ull be able to get it eventually||
id say ||nkg ||is not that bad
remember when you were guiding me through ||radkoth and i told you i couldn't do a dash slash at all lmao||
Just a bit of divine luck
wait, you already have ||radkoth||?
unfortunately
i mean, in all honesty, if you can do ||radkoth obles|| shouldnt be the that difficult in comparison
||ig u can also use mark of pride to keep a bit of distance instead of dash slashes||
mmm honestly im just trying to do them using||great slashes||
Hoping it would work somehow
if you are interested in doing ||bindings too, doing p2 with bindings|| is a good way to practice getting confident in ||obles||
like ||great slash and dash away after and hope i dont get hit||
||ab obles is simular difficulty to rad obles||
||i mean that could work fine i think but definitely not as consistent as dash slashes.||
||I honestly never tried that, but radiant is gonna keep me stressed no matter what, i honestly feel like im getting very close but i rush them at the very end thinking I'm one hit away or something||
Mhm
meanwhile, im doing everything in my power to avoid interpreting ||nail arts||
I thought ur doing ||p5ab|| 😭
i am...
I just beat the false knight what should I do now
i did everything befor without too...
and ur wondering...
lmao
that's not an argument against them
hey i need help😭
bro, ||zote and collector|| are haaard
I'd say quite a bit harder
u did ||p1-p4ab|| without ||narts||?? damn
idk how to left this faking site
Stfu
how did you even do it
Bit
i could never get used to them...
Bot
so i just gave up
Not chat
please use spoiler tags || like this ||
You process left from the arena
i use a ||dashslash after nkg and grimm puffer|| tho, that counts right?
Because the bot is sensitive I wasn’t smart enough to figure it out on my own
no
||ngl i dont think i have beaten a single ab pantheon without narts||
||try using them for collector||
maybe, i should start using them, but at this point, it sounds cool to just lean into the ||nailartless|| style
can anyone help?...😔
also sounds like hell 
Bro what is this glitch why is one of the ||obobbles keep moving during the spit attack||
going to the left will eventually have you out
||you can either leave through one of the two exits to fungal wastes or you use an item you probably got to the left at the old tram||
||that usually happens when the oblobble that is attacking gets bumped by the other oblobble moving into it||
i dont have the thing that give u light u know
i dont see nothing there
and i cant pass to the right
im lost and i hate the monster here
i die with so much geo
well, than there is the option that grubsenf just said
you can go up
the two at the right bro?
go to the left and search for a certain item, if you found it, go to the bottom right
i have the train ticket
than bottom right
somethint like that
i feel like the maze may be a problem
perhaps
if they have ||pass|| it's probably best
And I immediately died when the second phase started, nice
Bro i hate when ||one blobble attacks right after the other blobble, like not in sync at all HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET CLOSE AND DEAL DAMAGE||
Just use an ak-47 duh
Distance dmg
||sorry fat buddies you'll have to die by a weapon other than a nail now||
I was lying in your arms tonight🗣️
||the concept of using a nail in hollow knight is a cheap way of saying that you like poking insects with a sword shaped needle||
||which is actually very masochist if you think about it||
guys i get out of there and die in the other part😭
SPIT YOUR TRUTH
Should go right into hk offtopic lol
👀
any tips for ||abs rad||
||you definitely wanna play it passively, focusing more about her attacks than actually attacking her also unbreakable strength would be pretty good but quick slash nah||
why not ||qslash||
here is m extensive ||absrad guide||: #hk-help message
||Because you’re not gonna be wanting to connect your shots because if you do you might get hit||
||like being more focused to actually attacking and makes you slip for how fast the attacks are||
To not count that they combine each other some times
any charm suggestion?
Uhh lemme see
the best charmbuild in the game for any bossfight is always: ||quick slash, strenght, shaman stone and either spell twister or steady body and nail masters glory||
i dont use ||nail arts so much||
If ur doing ||p5|| yes
i prefer the version with ||spell twister||, so you can just use that too
if you are doing anything else than also yes
If ur pointing to directly practice it ||hitless you need nail arts just like with markoth||
if you have the charms and dont wanna ||overcharm||, its unquestionably the strongest
Oh you definitely don’t wanna ||overcharm in pantheons, unless you’re doing a full hitless challenge||
welp, i ||overcharm for most things nowdays other than ab, and radiant fights||
but ||overcharming anywhere other than in radiant|| fights isnt very reasoable for the not so addiced players
so i basically never recommend it
Understandable
besides for what you said earier, doing ||absrad|| on their own(by this i mean not in ||p5||) for the 1st time ||qs|| is indeed probably gonna be mostly useless, but in nearly every fight in the game it gives a huge advantage, the only real exception being ||noeyes||
What charms should I use for ||fighting hive knight?||
.
Also use ||<your sentence here>| | to make it invisible
Or spoiler it

||how to do Trial Of The Fool?||
Im sorry mate but its skill based there isn’t really a way but use the most used ||charm build||
||I'm using MOP, Longnail, Quick Slash, Unbreakable Strength||
here is m extensive ||absrad ||guide:#hk-help message
?
||spell twister||
Fucking psycho r we now?!
Psychopath i am
How do you get ||grey prince zote||
||fight zote in colo||
||save him at Forgotten Crossroads/Greenpath||
I don't ever recommend doing this
||i swear im going to cry bro i was so scared i couldn't even click to hit the last obobble I fucking despise this boss||
Where at?
||I have found him in crossroads and in deepnest||
Fr it saves you a bossfight in p5
||don't save him||
||radkoth didn't even drive me that insane||
Oh
Ur fucked bro 💀
??
Account bricked asf
???
Well then
Wdym where at
I need help with
WHERE IS THIS BOSS?!
||rad oblobbles is easier than radkoth tho....||
THAT DRIVING U MAD?!
||rad marmu||
I'm probably gunna start a new save anyway soon so
||its in hall of gods radiant||
||marmu is fun actually||
thank you 🫡
No
Agreed
Man i dont know anymore
I hate that thing with a burning passion in my heart
im one off... 😭
I did that boss on like second try hitless
mhmmm
@bold scroll here are some reference vids too
u need to spoiler this
I always panic and jump into a spit always always always
Oh right mb
||I found out the area to the left of the bench in the colo is where ur shade spawns when u die||
||someone give me a Trial Of The Fool guide rn||
see how far u get
cheers :P wish me luck 
Here step by step
What is the most op charm build for ||pantheon 3(mainly sly)||
do you have all charms?
Not yet but I would like to know which i need to get
ggs
Sorry for doubting you fella
||Take out NKG hes pretty decent of a boss tbh||
i mean u should be trying to get max upgrades before progressing far in ||godhome||. try to get the rest of the charms and any other upgrades u r missing first before heading back to ||godhome||
||on radiant? He's probably the first ever boss i did on radiant because he was my favourite||
Omg same
💯
Best part is the ost
||I have all abilities and soul spells upgraded i just need charms||
What charms do you have
Send a ss if ur playing
I honestly don't remember
||from what I do remember I have all lifeblood charms, unbreakable heart, fury of the fallen, both grub charms, quick slash, long nail, heavy blow, steady body, I think all spell charms, and a bunch others(only listed some I left out gathering swarm and wayward compass and stuff like that)||
skill issue for hating on him imo
I just want to know a good build for ||P3||
||GPZ|| is a great boss (when it's not with ||all bindings||)
if you don't have all charms you probably shouldnt be doing that
if you are specifically struggling with ||sly id go for quick slash strenght, mark of pride, and spell twister||
Alr thanks
good luck, do keep in mind, you are doing postgame content, so before going much further, i do recommend getting the remaining charms
not cause they will help you out that much, just for completion and allthat
Also anyone got tips for ||nightmare king grimm I can beat normal grimm easily but nightmare grimm gives me nothing but pain||
||i mean ab gpz is actually a pretty great boss as well once u have a sense of how to kill the zotelings efficiently||
think of all of his attack separately, and try to build a certain way/habit for dodging each of them
Yeah, still struggling with that. I know that ||spells|| one-shot them though
if you get used to his attacks one by one, it should help you with not being too overwhelmed
I'm working on beating ||GPZ AB|| consistently still
Ok that makes sense
||yea spells are ur best bet, i usually like to shriek them to get rid of them immediately (well, after their spawn invincibility ends) but u can also wait for them to fall near the ground before ddarking, which also has the added bonus of potentially dodging one of gpzs attacks||
Thanks for the help
Mhm. Right now it seems hard but just like with everything else it'll become easier with practice
I just beat ||Mantis Lords|| do you automatically receive the ||mark of pride|| or do you have to pick it up, and where?
|| spellcaster build and spam abyss shriek ||
i would recommend using ||shade soul instead||, the knockback and downtime are much better
when his ||phase 2 starts you can use abyss shriek once as theres no knockback||
FINALLY I BEAT THAT STUPID FRICKING ||XERO||
Should i beat ||soul master|| before entering ||deepnest||?
how do i hide again
U mean spoiler tag?

💀
||SORRY MY BELOVED LOYAL SERVANTS||
why there are ||saw blades||
is this a ||carpenter boss or something||
so many|| blades||
BRUH|| BLADES ON THE CEILING?||
||someone please tell me this doesnt lock me out of a ending or 112%||
Nothing in hollow knight can lock you out of progression
that dude was actually kinda cool, idk why i let that happen
Don't worry, || you'll get a cool Easter egg later in the game by doing this ||
okay cool
||how to kill zote teh mighty :(||
|| zote the mighty, a knight of great renown is pretty hard to beat
Do you mean the grey prince zote? ||
||hard to beat? the small blob guy that gets one shot in the arena?||
||yes grey prince, but nvm its useless, was looking for quick dreamcoin or w,e||
What
But! If you || beat gpz something like 10 times you get a cool looking gold statue ||
||is it not him? i remember beating him in first round in the arena||
|| the one in Brettas house in dirtmouth, you're thinking of zote the mighty a knight of great renown who is a joke boss ||
Sorry I mean || zote the mighty is the greatest knight hallownest has ever seen ||
ok gotcha
||finally did the eternal ordeal ..... 1st try (of today)
I was checking out
A few days ago i did at most 30
Then i tried the cheese build which also didn't work
I began thinking it was too tough
But it's simply chaotic in the areana and not as bad as it looks
I ignored the ceiling hanging ones that throw stuff and kept to my side of arena
And just focused on survival and not killing each and every zoteling actively
And it just happened
I was so surprised i went back again to beat it again to let in sink in
3rd try i got 67 .... Died to normal zoteling....very fitting||
||ok so i have 1500 dream coin, how do i get 1800?||
||i thought zote the mighty gives me a lot like lost kin, but he doesnt give shit||
||who have you killed so far||
||galien, no eyes, marmu, elder hu, gorb, xero, lost kin broken vessel, and the empowered laser guy in crystal peak||
||go back to soul master and false knight||
||soul master in soul sanctuary?||
||where's false knight||
Up
up?
||its the first boss in crossroads if you don't remember
You need to search above his arena for something hidden||
||go to the upper right area and to the left there should be a breakable wall, I wouldn’t kill the maggots there until you finish the fight cause you can dream nail them for soul||
I recommend doing ||soul master dream first instead of false knights dream|| also
im suffering there at the moment
any tips?
||soul master is the sword guy right?||
||so if it is the sword guy im thinking about what you want to do is have strength with mark of pride and whatever else you want after that, the main thing here is having reach||
||no its the teleport smackdown bitch||
||yeah that’s the one I was thinking of, basically all you gotta do is keep your distance from him and still be able to hit which mark of pride helps with a lot||
||wtf am i supposed to do with the failed champion||
||i cant get close, he jumps the entire way smacks me for 2 bars or stands far away smacking his hammer creating waves||
no time to stand and heal
||i really wish i could have a way to efficiently record a video on switch cause i have the perfect strategy and build for you but can’t quite put it into words||
whats the build u go with?
||quick slash strength mark of pride and whatever 2 notch charm you want||
||the whole strategy is to spam the fuck out of your nail and walk behind him when he jumps to spam more||
||also pretty neat trick is that if you bounce off his armor when he’s staggered it resets the stagger timer allowing you to get in 2 masks or some dream nails||
forgot to change the rest
||I get the feeling that you’re probably still a bit new to the game by just looking at this charm build so I’ll share some of the things I learned along the way||
its my first playthrough yes
||first things first, if you’re about to go into a boss it’s better to take off things like compass or movement related things so you can get the most from your notches (also heavy blow isn’t really good, can’t effect most bosses)||
||i just finished the grimm boss fight, waas collecting the embers so forgot to change it||
||wayward compass was because i get lost a lot||
||i dont have 15k to perma fragile strength yet so im going with the shitty version of it, + fast attac||
||yeah i get that, you’ll eventually figure out the maps at some point so don’t rush it||
||you got mark of pride yet?||
||yeah its what i do usually, grubsong is for extra souls, i usually went with this:||
yes
i have it
||so if you don’t have the money for strength I recommend heading to the coliseum or doing that failed tramway farm, it’s easy to find on YouTube||
okk ty, will try that
||also word of advice, I wouldn’t really go to this channel that often if I were you, figuring things out yourself through trial and error just makes the accomplishment that much more worth it||
i only come here when i'm lost/cba googling
it WHAT
||they don't break in dream because dream bosses happen in dreams||
how did I not know this
#hk-help message
@mortal hazel
||yeah but unfortunately i didnt know how much it'd cost to make it perm, so i gave it to the sweet lady and now shes demanding 15k :(||
||no more relics to sell ?||
i probably do have some
||but was running around finishing the grimm mission||
||also visit grubfather in crossroads||
||this is in stagger? i hit once > dream nail > hit once > dream nail?||
||i did, he gave me quite the generous offering, but i saved lots of grubs after so i might have to go back there||
||a very simple strategy is to jump and dash towards boss when he does the shockwave
Hit him once
And then dash away
That way to also stay out of range of his other bash attack that doesn't have shockwave
Ignore the falling flame barrels
Keep repeating until you get to his 2nd phase then do the strategy i replied with to go with full soul in next phase
#hk-help message
You need to hit him in the face 2 times at the very end of that strat before he gets up
That triggers his tantrum
Then you can retreat to edge and spam vengeful spirit as he does the tantrum
He will die quickly then||
ok ty, will try it

hEllo choombert
i was wondering, how do you recommend i beat cron in the loser’s bracket of the bingy tournament?

||do yall think failed champion is hard to do on radiant||
||Compared to like, the other dream bosses||
||all on radiant||
im yet to try him
unless you do the ||shriek|| thing yeah he’s a pain to learn
||I've already done the other dream bosses on radiant, just him that's left||
so i guess he's the ||hardest one on radiant?||
haha can't be that bad
right?!??
i think ||white defender|| personally, but they’re all decently hard
gyulp
just stay close to him, ||quickslash|| is enough to stagger him in seconds
||hmm honestly he was pretty decent, i used the phase where he keep going underground to attack him instead of just disolate/ddark-ing the ground, which made me able to finish him fast after he was done with it||
also if you’re not above less honorable strats… learn the ||shriek|| loop
Anything but ||narts||
it’s not,
||i dont think staying close to him all the time is safe, but I'll try||
Yeah i know im just saying i hate ||narts|| lol
I'll look up that technique you called
and I'll see if I can do that or not
ofc not all the time lol
but no hitting him is pretty easy that way
Honestly im more afraid of the ||little rocks that's all over the arena||
i believe im gonna jump into one by accident eventually
you can throw em at him
and theres spots were the rocks dont fall
bad 🪨 rng can kill an attempt really quickly
They sometimes keep going even if he's not doing that ||attack every time he gets unstaggered||
fortunately it’s rare
might be rare
But im dumb enough to run into one
Trol
Yeah I panic a lot
unfortunately
won't be suprise
rocks aren’t rare, bad patterns are
d
you’ll be fine
I'll still look up that ||abyss technique, sounds interesting enough and i haven't heard of it yet||
i can send an example, with your permission
Its fine i can just look it up
||doing Speed Completion achievement (100% in Under 20 hours), is 69% in 9h 17m good pace?||
||do i have to banish grimm if i wanna collect every charm||
||no. Banishment is optional. You keep Grimmchild if you choose to not do Banishment||
||but i need to get carefree melody for 112%||
technically yeah
||carefree melody is the banishment charm, if you choose the other route you get Grimmchild instead. You can get either but not both. Hope this helps.||
if math is to be believed you’ll be at 100% before 20h
Thanks
||ok so i don't need to banish them for 112%||
||you can if you want, but you don’t have to. Just know if you don’t, there’s a boss waiting at the end||
But no, not required for 112
good charms for ||pure vessel?||
||depends on if you prefer nail or spells||
||i’d recommend a nail build for Pure Vessel tho||
is there anything balanced between the both?
you can balance both but it’s kinda hard to do
How do we ||unlock the dirtmouth stag||
im pretty sure u js need to get one stag station and then you automatically het it
||just get another other stag opened and it’s unlocked instantly||
get it*
||do i have to like.... Go to stag station and hit the lever inside it to open thw gate between stag and town||
||the door to the stag station is locked by the lever in the dirtmouth area. you hit the switch by going to the station at another stag.
So yeah. Locked from inside.||
||how many grubs are useful for steel soul 100%
Should i go for all to get the 1 % from elegy||
can’t hurt
||what's the best nail builld for pure vessel i know a few||
||To get to hornet do I need to go through the path where zote is ? ||
||strength, longnail, mark of pride and quickslash, possibly switching out long nail for body and idk wayward compass||
yes
||omg how could i forget wayward compass||
technically no 
help
haha
you can get to ||hornet 2|| without going through that room
I'm crying
there is no god that could help you you poor bastard
and seeing where you are
it's gonna go on for a long while yet
buckle up chucklenuts
like this?
hm hmyes that's good
ok
how ?
OHHH I DID IT
is this rando?
no its just for ||steel soul 100%||
this is awesome
and also really good prep for speedrunning or bingy
routing is so useful
yeah so..... ||how can i skip zote area
the path seems to be blocked by shortcuts that unlock from the opposite sides
i dont remenber but on map thats what it says||
i was sorta joking, you asked if you could reach ||hornet, not specifically hornet 1||
you can absolutely reach ||hornet 2 without going through that room ever, but you need to for hornet 1||
||jump down to small plat
then dash and double jump tp other small platform?||
bench warp go brrr
oh okay lol😂
||Shade cloak:||
not even :D
you can get to ||hornet 2|| without ||dash||
||I CAN SHADE CLOAK THROUGH SAWS?||
yes
um

||but my head hits ghe small platform||
we do a little trolling
i don't like you
I can assure you that is no unique experience
||first path is not tough to plan
only issue is i want all shards etc for 100% so i need to decide when is the right time to come back to an area to pick up the tsuff left behind or not accessible previously
im thinking just doing this for every area after i get all abilities till wings||
||monarch wings don't jump high enough||
||then jump a little then dash and then double jump ?||
||i had pure vessel at 300 and i only lost 2 masks but still died when i got him to 300 i started fumbling..||
i got hit
||wings|| jumps higher if you hold it down
I saw video
||Dash and then wings do the trick
Try to grab on to the side of the small 2nd platform||
its a clip from video, dont watch the full video, only the clip
.
okiee
Well, that wasn't that bad
||Dash button simulator||
||i think it may be possible
that shortcut is a little different in position in actual map||
yeah just get ||mantis claw|| before hand 
👀 do ||i need mantis claw for that small wall ?||
Oh....oh....||i can't jump that high
That's why that hanging platform is there
To be dropped down||
Oh well.....||i will let zote die anyway||
||Should i add mawlek to my initial path ? Is it doable at the very start with base equipment?||
||any charms yall recommend for like just after dung defender and soul master just looking to upgrade myself before I contuine bossing||
i recommend ||soul sanctum + shaman stone, abusing what early spell damage you can get||
||i would then need to revisit it later
Since it's for 100 % steel soul run
I wanted to do it early as soon as i get to crossroads if it's not like mega risky
I don't use spells much honestly
Always beat mawlek with nail in pantheons||
nod nod, i usually wait until i’ve got ||descending dark to do brooding mawlek anyways, as it can hit it from under the little ledge||
it’s just a bit of a slog without decent damage
Hmn .... Well i am having second thoughts now
||My nail would be at 5 damage
And it's health is 300
So that's like 60 hits oooof||
yeah ||shaman stone VS is 20ish damage and can potentially hit twice, even if you just have normal VS it’s still 15 damage a shot on a big target||
cuts down the fight significantly
but if you can’t get it that early you can make do with just ||soul sanctum|| and good spacing
I think I will start a new game and use debug menu to try the fight quickly
||I forgot there are cheese platforms in the arena unlike the pantheon arena||
yeah but to cheese you need either ||Desolate Dive or Descending Dark from the city/peak||
and at that point youll have upgraded
👀 Uhhhh yeah damn. I'll probably shift it to a later point then
speaking of which i need to get back to my ||steel soul|| attempts, i keep making it like 70% of the way through before dying to something stupid like ||nosk|| or that one time my controller disconnected while getting ||the VS upgrade||
speaking of which i usually save ||zote|| just because ||grey prince zote|| is one of the easier ||dream fights|| to me
the pain of really preferring ||bretta’s fawning over the knight but wanting easier essence grind||
||zote stole my fucking girl||
||i just did it, it's doable
But it's not as if it has no risk
I went down to 2 hearts 3-4 times and once to 1 heart
I think it would be easily doable with fragile heart and soul catcher
Maybe I'll do it after fungal or then after soul sanctum||

Any tips for ||Sly the annoying fly?||
|| tbh you just gotta take your time imo attack only when you know you won't get hit ||
Not helping at all
Dang
🥀
how do i mark it as spoiler
||Just use cristal dash ||
With those ||
At the start and end of the message
and same for image
||keep walking away as you notice him do his double slash and the stop (if you don't stop he won't do spin if you're too far away)
Then dash in opposite direction as she spins and land 2 hits as he lands
When he does his jump in air
Come down and 2 attack
Stay near him so he does the 2nd swing and then get in a hit
For his spin nail art double jump and pogo on him and then dash away
When he charges attack while not at corners dash away, it's a great slash
If he charges at corners double jump, it's dash slash
2nd phase wait for him to come near
Then start walking away and as he ends spin turn around and hit him once||
You need to delete the image and resend it to spoiler tag it
i see, thank you
||cdash from that raised floor behind you||
||oh wait i can do it when standing lol, i tried to grab the ledge for 15 minutes||
Yeah
||where do i repair the broken fragile charm||
From where you brought them from
for how much
does ||Long nail QS sharpshadow Ustrenght sprintmaster/gsong s body sound good?||
F||or 160(heart), 120, 280 (str)||
Yeah
Good combo
Yeah nice
||Sharp for mop remove long too add s body?||
||can i upgrade the fragile to permanent||
Yeah nice ....
||if you die much you could also use longnail plus unb heart||
Yes
What areas have you been to until now
||instead of steady body you could have borh grubsong / sprintmaster
Whichever you were missing||
im trying to farm for the flashlight
||Nah i need s body for the other bosses 😭 ||
||if i want to do banish grimm tropue||
||you have missed some area in crystal peaks
You should explore it more
Check the map to see if you missed any rooms
Also you haven't reached the area yet where you can make it permanent
It's kind of not early game
Also you can farm moss knights for lantern or the big guy outside false knight arena||
||when this guy will be in distant village||
i need to do first part of quest ?
||when you gather 6 flames and progress quest then||
so i do normally first ||3 flames?||
||yeah first 3 flame, then 3 again, then proceed with quest
Then he will appear as flame in distant village||
can you circle where the big guy outside ||false knight|| area is
Sure
Your build isn't bad as it is
thank you
spoiler ||false knight||
there’s also the guy in the top right of ||forgotten crossroads who’s guarding a grub||
||enemies only respawn when you rest at a bench so go between em and then rest||
he's a very good early game ||geo|| farm
I was randomly exploring and found this || statue that opened a door with the city crest || I was walking through it when I noticed it was || closing || behind me ... so I || dashed backwards and it stopped || ... but if I walk again it will continue ig
so ... || if I go back, can I still access it? and if I go further, what do I have to do to create an entry somewhere else? || like, can I unlock the || lift || in the || forgotten crossroads, from withing the city of tears ? ||
Just explore bro, you will see
...
I think you can just let you gide by what do you want to do and by the game
No. Once its closed, its closed. ||But theres a way up ahead to go over the door so dw about it.||
And yes, you can activate the ||lift|| from there.
thank you
Im hearing the map guy sound in ||soul sanctum|| but cant find hom
||There's a breakable wall while you're on the lift nearest to the humming.||
Right in the middle of the ||lift passage||
Thanks man i love you
I literally complete whole place without map lol
Finally vro
should i ?
You'll need to dump 3000 total.
||how many mask and vessel ?||
next is ||weathered mask|| which is.... never!!
Should i even go for ||p5ab||
What is ||ab||
||all bindings||
Same here. I value my remaining sanity
💀
😫
||just make a copy of the save file||
Idk 3 is honestly harder than 4
i was thinking of that
Is it because of ||sly|| ?
No way
||GPZ.|| You can't one-shot the ||zotelings||
OH GOD
LOL
i forgot about him
yeah that's awful
well ||ab|| isn't possible for me anyways
Also ||the collector||, you can't one-shot his minions. But he's easier
not doing allat on a crusty fone
what about the ||spells||
||there should a folder created in your android folder
You can copy the data1.dat, data2.dat etc files
Each numbered file is for 1 save
Or copy them all||
The ||p5 version of collector|| is worse
||what do i do after i copy||
||Narts and spells are the answer, especially cyclone slash||
There's a difference?!?
Yes
||paste it somewhere else for safekeeping
Online or Google drive or a pc or something or pendrive||
Oh i can do that??
Do what
In ||p3 he spawns normal aspids, the vengeflies and the blue baldurs. In p5 he spawns primal aspids, and the purple variants||
||also when i copy a file it doesn't take it out of the hk folder right||
Nvm
||bro you are copying not cutting||
Yeah yeah i understand i just have so little knowledge about playing with files lol
thank you
guys shud i do ||PoP|| again, im kinda bored and had fun with it
||i couldn't even do single bindings for p1
I struggled to do nail
But then other bindings were just pain and oro mato was where i always died
I ain't gonna do it.... it's just not for me||
Are you on pc
yea
Install mod , do ||pop 2.0||
💀
Yeahhhhh
Good luck
oh?
@undone jacinth ||also can i just copy a backup file? And Change it to the main save when i need it||
||instead of just copying the main save immediately, like the one with dot only||
where is the last one?
Sorry if im asking stupid question i have no idea how this works like i said lmao
oh waiiiit
i forgot i had ||10grubs left and had to beat the hollow knight with the hornet||
||i don't know about that
But usually backup files are just like main files
But they have slightly older data
It's a backup in case main save gets corrupted
It's of no use if you try to do that
Just make copies of the whole folder for safekeeping||
That's a tough question....
||have you been to tower of love ?||
yes
Check ||The Collector's|| map? If you have all but 1 that means you've beaten him so you must have it.
||then did you get the map there ?||
yes
yes
Just ||try looking at the map
You should find the last one shown on the map||
|| I want a place to farm geo for the unbreakable charms
Which cost 36k geo for some reason||
|| I'm thinking the failed tramway ||
how
can u look where the ||grubs are||
Yes....later on when you get an item you can
what is it called
i need it
i have 10 left
helpp
Bro don't rush it
You will get it ,||what areas have you been to||
all
including ||white palace, godhome, and every other one||
||do you have love key in inventory||
yea but i havent beat ||collector yet||
shud i
i dont rlly want to
it seems so much like a hassle
Then you know what to do
It's easy boss...
i doo
😞
except for ||the hollow knight boss, thats easy af||
||After radhog, doing individual bindings isnt too bad, and that's all you need for weathered mask||
||ab is all bindings, eb is each binding (individually)||
How to access it?
Bro you have even more left , look closely
||any reccomended charms for troupe master grimm and radiance?||
I will be honest , ||not going for radhog||
||get on the opposite right side wall
Cdash from top.of it||
||strength for both
Qlash and shaman for rad||
||Radiance: Shaman, Twister, Strength, Quick Slash
Grimm: Strength, Mark of pride, Quick slash, whatever you like.||
||king station stag
If you have already opened the tower||
||fuckass grimm forcing me to equip grimmchild to fight him 💔||
||Have you opened the gates towards the bottom of tower of love?||
aight
Then ||king station|| ofc
||atleast you don't have to do that in godhome fortunately||
This is the normal ||grimm|| fight, right?
Aren't they the ones I've already picked up? Because I have 1 larva spot left.
||if you picked it up it doesn't show up on map anymore
Look for ones you already picked and you won't find them on the map||
yes
If you can go in with full soul and avoid getting hit until ||the first pufferfish attack, you can damage tank and spam abyss shriek under him. Quickly deletes him, especially if you have shaman stone and spell twister equipped.||
how exactly do i go in with full soul though
how many stagges till the ||bi- collector dies or how much health|| i got like 2 staggers
||what is ur nail||
Go to ||crossroads underneath and use dream nail on some bad enemy? Like the goams, the large worm like things popping out of the ground.||
Or come back when you have all charms.
||are you using strength charm||
alr
That will make it much easier to go into any battle with full soul.
any tips for the charms im missing
Send your charms again?
almost nothing i think
i need ||unbreakable strength|| i need 3k more geo
ill get by ||collo||
So if ||you're not using strength charm its
48 hits
Or 3 staggers and 8 hits
Nail only||
thats pretty easy
thanks
I'm telling you the locations of each missing one in order of its position.
||Resting grounds, from where you dive into the tomb. Keeping going right and breaking every breakable wall you can find.||
||Rescue all grubs||
||A breakable wall in crystal peak. Needs some easy crystal dash parkour.||
||The lifeblood door in abyss. Equip Joni's Blessing, fragile heart and lifeblood heart and the door will open.||
||Fungal wastes. Around the part where it connects to Queen's Gardens and deepnest assuming you've explored the breakable wall.||
||Deepnest. Somewhere to the right of distant village.||
@undone jacinth tysm
It worked
Now i just have to remember the password to my google account LOL
Nice 👌
||all the grubs
||
👀👀💥
Don't worry about it.... it's not that bad
that was pretty easy
Lol
You haven't explored a whole area, my guy
||Take the tram all the way right from deepnest or ancient basin.||
then?
||one is in the hive||
Watch out for a ||breakable wall. There will be bees in front of it.||
im guessing u get ||hiveblood there?||
aight
||That deepnest part to the left of the grub, there is probably a breakable wall or secret passage there||
Yeah
ok
np
to remember these
@short kettle im at the |tram of kings edge|| what next
OO
THAT WAS HARD
I FOUND IT
right there
Yeah
thats the ||hive i think||
Just use a ||spell||
Mmhm
no bosses here right
There is
NOOO MAAAN
Won't need it for the ||grubs.||
is there atleast a ||bench nearby||
You will find it
but need it for the ||hiveblood||?
Just keep exploring
Pretty far. ||One of the worst runbacks if you don't have dreamgate.||
Yes
Then dw about it
For sure....||i didn't want to spend essence so i ran back every time like an idiot||
im guessing theres a grub nearby?
No
|| shout-out to the "clear your path" strat,I cleared delicate flower and just beat trope Grimm ||
in this way im pretty sure
HOW THE ||DELICATE FLOWER||
man i despise that
||I’m fighting Hornet in Kingdom’s Edge right now. Is this a good lineup (talking about my charms for fighting her? Currently, I can make it to phase 2 (?) where she starts setting up these spikey things around her. I have discovered they can be knocked away with the nail lol. I think I keep losing because I need to get better at timing myself and learning her attack cues.||
||I’m not using magic against her, because I felt like it wouldn’t be effective. She’s always jumping around, and she even spends a good amount of time suspended in the air.||
|| Clear your path,don't bench,and get the flower and go back,I second tried it ||
|| and shout out to the howling shrieks,managed to cheese trope Grimm ||
||S/n: I awoke the Hollow Knight. His fight had so much aura in it, but I couldn’t make it past what I assume is phase 1 of his fight.||
||I assume he is meant to be fought later in the game or something lol||
||jus stay at one of the corners and when she goes up and jumps to attack u also jump to avoid the attack and knock down a spike with you, while ur going to the other side, make sure to knock away the spikes, but if theyre in the middle they dont really matter, cuz ur going to be staying at the sides the whole time||
Oh okay, I’ll try that 👍
||yeah this is good
Though it's risky to heal mid fight
One window is when she throws nail buil if you're too close you'll get hit
You do have faster heal but would be better to dodge better instead of thinking of heals
If you have excess soul you can do a jump and vengeful spirit to clear away the spikes||
Don't ||rush for grubs
Enjoy the area, its nice aesthetic||
aight
i beat ||hive knight first try with two souls, one soul left know 😭 || anything else? no benches found either
oo found ||hiveblood||its a pretty good charm for ||white palace i hear|| and i ve alr finished everything there ||including PoP||
HOW
Only if you lack the better options
Nobody:
Me: Has people tell me how to beat bosses, and still loses over and over again
Did you find the other ||grub|| yet
||I tried healing whenever she stopped attacking before the phase where she setting up all those spikey things||
no
||Maybe I need to just git gud at dodging her attacks…||
i mean it kinda works if u have extremely good timing
yeaa
||do you mean when she gets staggered ?||
yea but max u can do is 1 or 2 if u have ||quick focus||
Wdym
||It's easy 3 heal with quick focus||
You gotta react quickly ||on staggers||
ahh
but i always did 2 for safety
is there some kind of ||breakabel wall|| cant find it
||Yeah that's good, but they're using quick focus so....||
yea tru
You gotta get it from above it
Please spoiler tag this
where above
Oops missed it
||I BEAT HER LMAO||
WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT
||Like the kingdom edge area above the grub||
Yes
Spoiler it
That was all I needed
It is tagged
||yeah staggers are great timing to heal since the boss Don't attack for a bit||
Thats where you are in the image you sent
Uhhh.... Can you zoom out a tiny bit
Maybe i was mistaken
I didn’t know the term for it lol. I’m very new to this game and this style of gaming in general lol
Ah yeah my bad
I thought its the other one
hm so?
||there a hole in the ceiling for this one||
i love the ||hive and hate the hive at the same time||
I mistook it for a different one and kinda was telling you how to get that one
I really feel like ||Grubsong|| is playing a huge role in me winning boss fights. Does anyone else use that charm?
Mb my discord didn’t made it tagged
||It is a fine charm yes||
Yes
Exactly, from right wall
Yep. I use it a lot
It more likely depends on play style but i ||use it on the eternal ordeal||
||is the collector another vessel or something cause he looks like a shade||
Nah he isn’t
He was created by the ||pale king|| tho
Nah a ||vessel is designed to either fight or contain the radiance aka you the knight||
ouh
hey do u know how to get this key?
You guys should spoiler text and images
||you can find a simple key by exploring or either buying one by sly’s shop||
