||So there are 2 ways to beat him||
I was wrong you were right I accept it
yeah
||getting void heart may not be easy, so ima go wo void heart ig||
||yeah, do it before voidheart because otherwise you cant get the first ending||
||you can keep playing after you get an ending btw, you can get all of them on one file if you want||
||Wow even after the game finishes?||
yes
Getting ||voidheart|| is very easy, IF you already have ||kingsoul||. Then you just have to go to the bottom of || abyss || and grab it.
Ainnoway š
||you respawn at your last bench like the end sequence never happened||
they're not just gonna take away your save file or smth
Damn i need to finish this and see what happens
Man i keep getting confused w these names and all
just dont worry about it until you get there
If you just do the areas you'll get it
Aight
Thanks alot for the help tho
To everyone
Any tips for ||Dung defender?||
just dodge and hit
okay lemme explain better
Alright
for when hes ||throwing his ball or wtv stay near him but far enough it doesnt touch u||
what gear?
||he has a weakness but idk if you have it||
||a weakness? i didnt know that when i beat him is it like a item||
you got everything?
don't wanna spoil if not
yeah besides ||endings||
i got ||thk w/ and without void heart tho||
||if you dive when he's in the ground (like fully underground, not "swimming" around) he gets staggered)||
||Well I think he's supposed to be around the level of Soul Master? So would be weird if he was very tough||
true
How do I get the ||second pantheon ending? Ik dream no more or is it embrace the void idek but is the other just without void heart?||
If I want to beat ||Pantheon 3|| should I go back and leave ||Zote to die|| in a new save?
Can I get some context?
its the same as the first but you give the ||white flower to the godseeker||
Oh so u just can't have ||nine masks?||
if your struggling you can but its kind of a nuclear option
I finally made it far enough in ||Pantheon 3 to get to Zote|| but I'm now desparing of ever beating it
||gpz?||
?
Are u talking about ||gpz in p3||?
Yeah
||killing him or saving him doesn't make a difference he's always going to be in the pantheons same for banishing or fighting nkg||
you can pick a ||flower from the traitor childs grave after doing flower quest||
this is incorrect
||he is not in the pantheons if you leave him to die||
you forgor spoiler
What about ||p5 it literally has every boss except for reg nosk and reg mantis||
same for ||p5||
i left him to die on my first playthrough and greatly enjoyed the ||zote free pantheons||
Then how do u get ||weathered mask on a kill save||
||zote just doesn't show up in godhome if you don't fight gpz in the overworld||
same as normally
||the door unlocks like normal||
I don't think it matters if u spoiler that
does that need spoilering?
better safe than sorry
I mean there's a bunch of locked doors in the game
like oh no rip 0.13 seconds spent adding two || on each side
fair enough
Anyways I would go crazy always having ||2 empty pedestals||
just 1
||nkg gpz||
you can still find ||the eternal ordeal|| either way for some reason
||nkg always shows up||
the pedestal just isnt there if hes dead
Oh
Anyways can I do ||both pantheon endings by beating absrad then going to pick a flower give it to god tuner and beat p5 again?||
yes
Ok because I've heard ppl say I couldnt
||only if you give the flower before doing p5||
Wait you can give ||flower to god tuner||???
Huh... Speaking of ||flower|| whats the best route for the quest?
I feel like ||Enderbugs route is the closest, but you have to be careful with infected crossroads||, but I don't think you are going that route right?
Imo
Not the fastest but itās the safest
route I took, cleared it all before taking it.. only problems are spikes and vines
Donāt forget to ||overcharm and set a dreamgate at the start so you can quickly try again||
Wait I think I took that route as well... almost forgot
i do a slightly different one but itās a few more enemies
gotta be slightly more careful
Either way you do have to be careful with ||flower||, I took a stag accidentally with it-
nuh uh you can give one to ||the item|| too!!
||This route is actually very fast as well. It gets the most use of cdash and ddark.||
i've done that so many times
did you see my comment on your vid earlier?
totally unrelated username
Are you nuclearwarhead?
I Got my || dream nail || fully awakened what it do now
||remember anywhere it didn't work before||?
OHHHH
WAIT
THAT MEANS
i am def going there now thanks
||ideal charm loadout for pantheon 3?? Just doing it normally w/ no bindings for 112||
||it's entirely up to your playstyle but i like using this one||
How long does it take to do a || Pantheon ? ||
||more than 10 minutes though of course you can do it in less time||
Oh that's light! I thought they were like an hour each
||Ohh that seems like a good soul based one! I keep dying to sly and zote š currently i have mark of pride, longnail, unb strength, and quickslash/shaman stone for first and second respectively||
not an hour but you can still take a bit longer if you don't know how to ||kill the bosses quickly||, i'd recommend practicing first! 
||if you prefer nail over spells then i'd recommend switching shaman for quickslash
||
which keys open these?
I'd definitely practise if i was going in underleved and unexperienced. However to get them done the quickest i'll just do everything else in the game and then do them.
||not a key! you gotta find another way to get in there||
Okay thats a good point!! Im really bad at ||dodging zote so I just spam ddark lol|| thanks for the tips!
||through royal waterways i guess||?
Can you ||upgrade|| any other ||spells|| than ||abyss shriek||. That's the only one i have but i feel like there are more...
||yup! you can upgrade all of them||
Oh wow, how much % are the ||upgrades?||
||the same as their regular counterparts||
||there's a page on the wiki about the requirements to get 112%, you can check it out to see what you probably are missing ||
Aight, thanks dawg.
you're welcome š
That was the worst experience of my life
||any tips about p5?||
||practise the bosses that seem too difficult to you, once you get to the final boss don't sweat it, if it kills you you unlock it's statue so you can practise the battle.||
||thank you and ive done this many of times i jjst seem to make less progress or die faster early on for some reason||
||don't worry, you'll make progress eventually. trust in the process!!
||
||thank you and im pretty sure i can beat it NKG and pv are really easy for me somehow||
Hello, Iām looking for ||Mr Mushroom locations. I already did Fungal wastes and Kingdomās Edge ones many days ago. And now I canāt find him in other locs.|| Can you help me??
you're done?
that's remarkably fast
no its so hard
oh
there are a ton of ||skips|| you can do
and i give up
like ||secret paths to avoid sections||
i will try to keep a eye
Guys
First off spoiler tags for everything in game
Second off you get them by progressing late into ||pantheons||
is there a ||bench|| closer ?
||In the house you seem to be at||
Also is your image spoiler tagged
Ok it is
ok thx
||wasn't a good bench...||
lmao
bruh
bro š

its ok vro am always there
I'
I'm missing a single mask shard. Anyone know where the most frequently missed ones are?
have you done the ||flower quest||?
Yeah
Grub one too
It's probably just a hidden path if I had to guess
did you get one in ||deepnest||?
don't remember honestly
you can get it on the wiki if it's just one missing
||It was the one in crossroads, near the goams||
Go right
Ok so
Got ||compass|| and a thing that makes ||My energy thing twice||
Already killed the ||False Knight||
i||s this guy usefull, like can i customised my mask ?||
What else?
also is ||quick slash|| still good for ||radiance||?
||there is an area below the city sewer that is blocked with a door with some symbols talking about never returning or something how to access it?||
Fuck you
Itās late and Iām annoyed so Iāll <@&283547423706447872> because I donāt know who you are, but itās just rude
?
Why is bro summoning the avengers to ask a simple question
Now I sleep
summoned the entire squad

-# I don't know who these people are
erm what the freak
What the fuck happened
i think just the last something number of people active?
apparently some guy troll pinged like 10 people
I think the msg got deleted
Sick, does anyone have any good routes for ||flower quest||?
from earlier today
Oh sick I didn't see someone replied.
Oh and I assume I should go into speedrunning for speedrun help?
What's the best charm build for ||P3||?
I have all the charms, except I have ||Carefree Melody instead of Grimmchild||
Also I don't really care either way
10
Thanks
@still copper For any nail build if you only have one charm notch left I'd recommend ||steady body|| especially useful for bosses such as ||the collector and god tamer||
Where?
I already killed the ||False Knight|| and ||that Big fly thing||
So yeah
I found a guy called ||Sly||
But nowhere to go
Oh well
||SLY SELLS THE BEST STUFF||
Yeah just go through ||greenpath||
"||Green path||"?
I just found a ||seat on a waterfall||
Oh mb ok
Im on early game bruh
So do you know that big zone under the room with ||Cornifer?||
||Cornifer||???
||the map guy||?
Yeah him
K
You want to reach here.
Do you do you have the map of the area yet
Oh you do have ||vengeful spirit|| yes?
Or did you just skip ||the nap guy||
They do, but eitherway because you dont know

š¹ An unnecessary spoiler is a spoiler (even a tagged one!) that was not directly requested by the user being helped, such as help referencing in-game content that the player has not necessarily reached - Charms build containing Charms they havenāt found, for example. These spoilers, though generally good-intentioned, can harm a playerās experience as any other spoiler would. Remember the game is non-linear; Always make sure to know what a player has and where theyāve reached. A simple screenshot of their map and inventory would tell you all you need to know.
Mb man...
Just so you dont accidentally spoil them, all good
Yeah
Im a he :v
But anyways
Just Lost 600 geo š
Who here is friends with @thick wing
Guys
Question
Just got to ||a Purple zone|| next to ||Green Path||
Am i going too fast?
just play the game and enjoy it, doesnt matter if u going too "fast" or too "slow"
no
but
you should always explore the area u are in fully first
Ok
Just saying,i like to take My time
I just want to squish this game dry
i mean ur pace doesnt really matter as long as u r having fun
Yeah,i honestly sometimes rush the Game so then finishing it completly after the final boss
||somethin supposed to be here?||
what exactly?
|| use howling wraiths ||
k
do you have ||abyss shriek?||
|| use it while standing on the pedestal||
did that
|| enjoy the strongest spell in the game ||
sometimes
yus
||In my opinion desending dark is way more useful since most boss are grounded and inviz frame's||
strange to ping people for that
every ||spell|| has a use case where itās better than the others, imo
I didn't mean to do it
|| abyss is strongest by damage but I do agree ddark is way more useful ||
That is true but ||Ddark|| is has more use cases
|| spells definitely have their uses for different situations ||
|| shade eats markoth ||
||ddark|| has more use cases if youāre trying to dodge
||Abyss shreak is absurd against both radience bosses||
i would take ||shriek|| over ||ddark|| for like 15 fights
||It' also a great damage scorce and dodgeing ability for GPZ||
thatās one fight
It's hard to use ||shriek|| against ground bosses
i donāt think thereās a world where any of the 3 is flat out better than the others
Yea all of them are useful
|| shriek is fun to nuke the shit out of flying bosses with but I use ddark religiously ||
I suck

Guys
Me need help
||Beat Hornet in first zone||
I already know her moveset
(i'm a elden ring player so she pretty much like Maliketh)
So yeah
The issue is
I cant deal enough damage until she dies
Should i ||Buy some charms||?
||charms can't increase damage that much upgrade your nail||
why
bc first heās ||in greenpath so he canāt get a nail upgrade, but also charms massively increase your dps||
anyways
||what charm can increase damage other than shaman stone and fragile strength||
||and charms can't increase damage by much||
won't be noticable
||if they're going to defeat hornet they 100% already killed failed knight so they can upgrade the nail but it's not worth it||
you know ||vengeful spirit, your fireball spell? it does 3x the damage of your nail. If youāre trying to maximize damage, look for opportunities where you can land one||
without the execution of one of ||fungal stallball, queens station fireball skip, vs only blss, or major glitches, you cannot reach the nailsmith without beating hornet||
ohhh
i forgot
anyways
iām sure theyāre familiar with the concept
fortunately, i already said the first thing
anyways
for the most part, this is safe to do after any of her attacks or staggers, but if youāre trying to dps race the fight for whatever reason (probably donāt do that) maximizing your ||spell usage|| is how youād go about that
it takes ||three nail hits to get one spell use, and you can use the quick cast button (F on keyboard and right bumper on controller)|| to make that feel a lot more responsive
how to ||open these doors ||
you can't
||it's a way for the tram to go through not you||
don t understand please tell me
Yāall Iāve had hk for 6 years and I havenāt beaten ||pantheon 5|| bruh
||use the tram||
you joking right?
Nope
have you played?
you can't open it
My friend with 4000 hours hasnāt yet-
||they only way to go through it is the tram||
I stopped playing regularly like 3 years ago
But I still play just not as muc
||some guy i ve been watching went therewith tram ,left the tram went right and just walked throught these doors cuz they were opened||
Also I play on switch not pc is that a problem
||i think that's onlyt in deepnest where the tram and tram doors are broken||
btw mark it as spoiler
idk use a keyboard and mouse or controller if ur not comfortable
||I have a feeling Iām gonna have to relearn all the boss attack patterns to beat p5||
kinda
what is in here?\
something
what
idk
||A boss||
||the tower of love||
||i think the collector||
how to get here
||you need the love key and to open these two doors using a lever||
where that lever is
||kill these two and break the breakable wall behind them||
i wasn't talking to you
||the guy went throught doors i sent and got there so i m asking how to get there||
||there's a breakable wall behind these two bees find it||
||you have to shoot a spell at it to break the wall||
||he can break it using the nail why complicate things||
its alot easier in my opinion
||why pogo on spikes when you can just shoot one spell at it to break it||
what spikes
Well them whatever that is that damage you
basically like spikes
||insect spikes ig||
you can't ||pogo|| on them
||well thats why im saying just use a spell to break the wall, i think its impossible with the nail cuz for me it didnt work||
you can ||pogo the spikes||
you can ||break the wall with the nail||
it is easier to ||just fireball it||
š„³
can you ||pogo the insects?||
tram
I spammed ||Vengeful spirit||
Even a pebble is good for me bruh š„
there's no ||charms for damage|| you can get without ||dash|| rn you just have to git gud
use more ||spells|| and dodge as much as possible since it's easy to dodge her
I can easily Dodge her
The issue is My health
ok?
I die too quickly
how do you die quickly if you can dodge her
Fair point
More like,i die before she does
š§
Ok no
keep trying idk what to tell you
shaw
||Does Ghost not mind being the new vessel?||
|| ghost/knight doesnāt really mind anything. They have a purpose and thatās it ||
|| wdym by curse? Like the infection? ||
is ||quickslash|| even worth using against ||radiance? with how hard he is to hit idk if it would be better than spell twister or something for more ddarks||
|| spell charms work very well but quick slash is also good. You can get good hits in with the nail if you time it well ||
i cant manage to get 2 consistently, is it a skill issue or is there a method to it?
|| I wouldnāt call it a skill issue but you need to be good at the fight to get a lot of hits in. If youāre having trouble then a spell build works wonders||
|| radiance can be nuked down entire phases if you have a spell build and enough soul going into the fight ||
yes
||Anyone know what counts towards 112%?||
||i dunno||
I like any build using ||quickslash, longnail or mop, and then quick focus|| just tryna stay alive because it takes a while
||quick focus allows you to heal often||
||Should I replace mop with strength?||
yeah not a bad idea
if you have ||unbreakable||
I do
then its a great idea
am i locked out of ||carefree melody|| if i want to fight ||nkg||?
Yes
||But it doesn't count towards 112%||
||You have to fight NKG if you want 112%||
no ||nkg isnāt a percent||
Yes he is
it actually is, it just has an alternative
oh ok, I just assumed the ||charm slot was the percent||
||but then ig you wouldnāt have to conplete the questline||
nah it makes sense mb
||charm notches|| never count actually
but the ||charms do donāt they?||
yes
mkay great
Please spoiler tag your message
|| yes but you can banish the troupe for the 1% ||
||is there any special dialogues/perks or ending after beating beating pantheons with bindings
Or is it purely to challenge self||
||there is a benefit for doing pantheons with bindings. If u do enough of them the door to the left of the hall of gods will unlock and provide a nice benefit for ur future pantheon runs. Additionally, if u obtain every single binding on all pantheons then u will unlock a secret area within godhome that will also reward u with smth, tho this reward doesnāt do anything useful, its just for bragging rights mainly. And also if u do all bindings at once on a pantheon then the binding caps at the entrance of that pantheon will glow bright, it doesnāt do anything but it looks nice and itās also pretty much for bragging rights||
I got 3 bosses to defeat guys
Which one I should start first
||Crystal Guardian||
||Dung defender||
And there's a boss in ||royal waterways|| but I forgot it's name
|| dung defender will help open up some stuff if you beat him. The other two are optional ||
lessgoo i just did ||Path of Pain|| for the 1st time
.... and what the meaning of it?
|| it pretty much gives the whole lore at the end of it ||
are there any effects to the games afterwards?
im proud of myself beat it just about 2 and half hour... now im tired

I think it took me around 3 hours. It'd take me less if I knew beforehand that ||at the end there were 2 kingmounds.||
|| would have been really funny if they had placed pure vessel there instead ||

yeah i got spoilered when im scrolling through yt 
I've been trying to avoid spoilers as much as possible when playing the game for the first time.
what does the ||4 items that can be sell through Lemm|| other than ||selling it for geo||??
Nothing
any achievement for it?
Nothing much, I guess? Just in case I was keeping some.
Nope.
aight
Though now I have way too much Geo. ||And I've already spent a lot at Divine.||
do i need ||grimmchild|| to fight ||nkg||
Yes
what should i do rn? i got ||descending dark, dream nail and crystal heart||, what bosses should i fight or what objective should i focus on?
||Iād suggest exploring the royal waterways a bit||
i need a|| simple key|| for that right
Ya
also i dont have a single ||pale ore|| yet
||ou do you want a better nail before going there||
you will probably find these later
yeahj
how do i get one at my current progression?
||you should explore deepnest, killing a certain boss grants u one||
Or free some
|| keep going from royal waterways and go down once you get through that region ||
||grubsss||
could you show your map
|| you can also get a pale ore from the seer if youāve found them ||
||defeating Grimm tutorial|| why im so bad
the attacks are pretty simple
he might not know what ||radiance|| is
So donāt talk about it
Anyway, donāt feel bad about having a hard time. That boss is quite fast
its okay, i know what it is
||Or from the second trial of the Colosseum.||
|| thatās probably out of their league atm ||
can he get enough ||grubs|| for it?
||stioll cant predict the fire projectile goes after Grimm uppercut
||
Guys was it always possible to go to ||birth place|| if i have ||void heart|| cuz technically i can access it with ||kingās soul||
Someone have a good build, for the part of the p5 with nosk?
||should i kill elder hu before that? im tryna get awakened dream nail so i can fight radience||
but this guy clapped me so idk if i can beat him or not
Beat him
|| if heās on the way you might as well ||
|| keep trying, you got this ||
ok good
i beat it
||like 3rd try but that shrink pillar attack was annoying bc i didnt now that te center is always in the center where the statue is ||
then i figured out that he spawns it randomly
Yeah, it took me 2 tries on my first playthrough.
||i got 221 essence on dream nail rn||
I think it was actually the first boss I died at.
i had like 5 hp on 2nd try so i fumbled
i was close tho
thats crazy
|| get 100 more and you can get a pale ore ||
||how to beat no eyes in PoH||
what should i fight for that?
Use ||great slash and shade soul||
||ill get nail upg and go waterways ig ||
|| have you been to the resting grounds yet and fought xero?||
||the red dud throwing blades yeah i killed him||
|| then your best option may be to just track down the essence trees. All other dream bosses are probably closed off to you rn ||
is this possible to do all 4 endings in one run?
i did ending 1 in my old run and now i'm doing a 112% run and would like to do all achivement possible on it
||Itd be better to spoiler tag that, but yes||
|| yes but you need to complete the base hollowknight ending before getting voidheart or youāll soft lock yourself out of it||
|| so i just go kill Hollow knight then go get void heart ?||
||If you want to get all endings on a single save file, yes.||
|| yes ||
|| does killing him make anything in the game unaivalable anymore ? so to know if i have to do some quest before or smth ||
no
||I don't think so. After you get an ending, you can return to the save file and you'll wake up at the last point where you saved the game.||
|| no, it just resets to right before you kill him ||
ok thx
||when you get void heart you cannot do the first ending||
|| because once i get void heart if i kill hollow knight it trigger second ending? ||
||yes there will be hornet there||
||grabbing a bank doesnt reveal the fog in maps?||
That is what I meant š¤¦š½āāļø
Really late reply but ||upslash kills all your upwards momentum, so you need to attack at the peak of your jump then once while falling||
||yo i killed gorb rn, got 321 essence. so now i killed xero gorb and hu. i got like 800 geo with some in bank so ig i can get a key + nail upgrade. that would be a good decision right.||
as in side slash into up slash or can i fit in 2 up slashes if at peak of my jump
the first might work but the second should be easier
do all the "top players" (speedrunners no hit runners etc) use keyboard or can you actually get used to positioning the left stick of a controller to consistently up/down swing
ive been playing for a minute now and still mess up a decent amount
#speedrunning question,,,

Why is it suddenly blocked off?
:3
Uhh should I worry?
Nah
||am i ready to beat hollow knight? >:D||
Both got locked
Wait which room are you in specifically
Fuck no,,,
How many ||kingsmoulds|| have you fought
2
awe man š
I think
Those are the only enemies that can damage you here, right?
Any of you got tips to beat absolute radiance?
Tag this
are you in a ||big room with a bench in the middle||?
Yes
what stuff do i need more of to be ready to beat the hollow knight
With an ||exit||
||Charm Notches,,,||
Unbreakable strength šæ
different heights
you can get more of those!?
Also ||better charms||
Wth is that blank box
Spoiler tags
hmmmmmmmm
Me spoiler tagging a message like you're supposed to
Used to be
I'm on absolute radiance there are no spoilers
Who the fuck cares
Now it's blocked
It's for other players
where do i get more notches!? :0
Explore,,,
also @drowsy yarrow can you link that ||absrad|| tips message you have
sorry for ping

How to you even spoiler tag

Oh wait, you have ||elegant key||
Unless you already ||flicked 2 switches|| there
||Go to where you found Sly for the first time||
bebet
I ||flicked one|| and backtracked in the room where was the second but then died
there's two you have to unlock the way forwards out of that room
you gotta go through long paths to get to each
Uhh for some reason the ||elevator opened, I think I did by accident the second||
oh then you're just done

||i got more notches! Is this build okay for the hollow knight?||
I'm pretty stuck. I'm not even sure how one of you can give me a hint to get me moving!
well explain a little about what it is ur stuck on?
I know I'm probably gonna be told this is a skill issue, but I cant beat ||fluke marm.|| the charms I'm using are: shaman stone, thorns of agony, spore shroom, and grub song. I get overwhelmed so easily.
Kill the adds as soon as possible
I'm trying bro š„
lol
My best run was my most recent one, I get overwhelmed so easily, I kill them but by the time I do more have spawned
@fathom creek as soon as I posted that I noticed a couple spots I haven't explored on my map. Thank you for helping.
alright, have fun playing!
I hate to even ask. I have enjoyed finding stuff on my own. I think I got two tips.
you could use ||spells|| to kill both at the same time
anyone help? ;v;
yay!
yea its fine any build can work for ||the hollow knight||
I try, ||desolate dive (upgraded ver|| doesnt reach flukemarm, and my ||shadesoul isnt upgraded, and barely does any damage||.
||if you don't one shot them with your nail, come back later||
Well you can try and just full focus the boss as well because it doesnt have that much health
But I want ||fluke nest|| š„
it's not worth it if you're a casual player
Try to ||get rid of those two spawned weirdos and then land as many hits as possible until another two weirdos are spawned.||
Tips for ||sheo||?
||Pay attention to to colour of his brush as it indicates the type of attack he's going to use.||
||about how much hp does the hollow knight have after he keeps spamming the smash into the floor moves and the orb miniguns?||
||build?||
|| How do i get the last charm? I lost the charm place when i upgraded kingsoul to voidheart, so how do i get a new charm to place there for salburas blessing?||
Pogo at the top
Screen of all || charms? ||
||charms for sheo?||
Get all the || grubs ||
OHH yeah right. Mb i forgot about that one!
Did you explore all of || love tower || yet?
Yep, i have the ||map||
Alright, just keep on getting all of the || grubs || and let me know if you need help 
Alright, thanks man!
Be faster
Very unconventional, most people go straight for dps charms like ||strength, shaman, quick slash and spell twister|| but it looks pretty fun, and would be viable for a ||focus|| focused approach. (no pun intended)
and i do not have time to re-charge my ||shadow dash||
HELP?
||dash to the wall and use your wall jump ability to get on top of it||
if you beat the game, does your save get deleted
no
Nope it goes back to the last ||bench||
i keep trying but i keep dying
could you send a video of what you're doing exactly?
okkk

This chat looks a CIA redacted document
as you can see, i am miserable at this
ill send a vid of how i do it
hello everyone, ||I collected the desolate dive in the city of tears, but I cannot find any other areas to progress. Does someone know where to go next?||
Do you not have ||Mantis Claw?||
he they do (actually they don't i'm blind)
Oh
i do, i just got it like 5 seconds ago
they/them please
use it
you ||wall jump||
and then you ||go to the wall again||
and then you ||jump again|| and repeat
my bad, also, i didnt look close enough
i dont hv UP ARROW KEY ATM SO no ||radiance||
so
but the space between the lil ledge and the spikes is too small, and the small time frame makes me panic
it started recording a bit late but i ||dash|| to the first wall
most important thing is to try and stay and calm
u can also pogo on the spikes...
yeah but im terrible at pogoing
?
send a screen of your map
||how do i fight the GIANT pogo bug in the collumcium....colleumcium or whatever thing?||
i dont have that ||black dash thing||
u dont need it
it doesnt affect this area. its for something else
don't worry, you're not supposed to at that point in the game
do you know its actual name?
or how it looks
||god tamer|| i guess
lemme try to find it
no
||the Great Hopper||
thats literally its name
wow
just walk back and forth from it keeps jumping and turn around and hit it
i see, kk
thanks!
np, gl
you should probably try exploring the ||mantis village|| more
This may be a lil stupid, but can I mark the area on my map and do it another time? When I have more skills? In that case which skills would make this thing easier
Yup
that area is technically completely optional for beating the game
please spoiler your message
Yeah, but I wanna 112% it on my first go because I have no life
then just come back later
i dont know how on images and its not a spoiler at all
it has sprites for a charater from the game
can i use them to kind of remake ||silksong||
ok ok
can you still get 112 if you do ||nkg instead of banishing||
yes both give the same and remember to use spoilers
it's impossible to lock yourself out of 112 without glitches
also use spoilers yeah
K thanks

Relax man Iām doing it right now

Okay

Im going for 112
bro i cant not win in this room ||where u get stormed by endless mobs||
im trying to set up my pro controller onto steam and its not working
think need some weap upgrades
it works with other games but with hollow knight it just doesnt work
what area is the room in?
damn
Send a screenshot if you want tips
?tag controller some of these might work
Common fixes for controller issues
Try these separately first, but if they don't work, then you may need to try a combination of them.
- Use Steam's controller settings, enable Steam Inputs from the game properties, and check controller configuration support through Steam's Big Picture mode.
- Toggle "Controller Native Input" in the game, found at Main Menu į Options į Controller. Restart your game after changing it.
- Unplug your controller before launching the game, then plug it back in on the title screen.
- If using a Playstation/Nintendo controller on Linux/Steamdeck, see this information.
- Use a program to map controller inputs to keyboard inputs, either through Steam or a third party program.
Can you lock yourself out of ps trophies? I want to || banish|| the || Grimm troupe|| rather than fight ||Grimm|| but wouldn't that lock me out of a trophy?
Send a screenshot of your inventory then
it locks you out on that file, some achievements need multiple playthroughs to make all the different choices
||Iirc you cant miss ps trophies, and you get the trophy from both banishment and ritual but im not 100% sure of this||
Aight, are multiple playtroughs required on ps5?
iām not sure but iāll check
What olive said applies for all other platforms but not ps
So i only need one playtrough where i make the correct choices?
||From what i remember, you dont need to make the correct choices on ps, just play and you get them all||
Theres a chance i remember wrong though
i just looked at the trophy list and itās all stuff you can do in one playthrough
ya still doesnt work
Aight thanks, i only have ||pantheons, fool trial and some grubs left||
You can try asking in #1057825333841240104 or #modding-discussion if you tell that it isnt modding related, the people there are better on this kind of stuff
hello i was playing the game for the first time and idk why but my game freeze when i take an item in the White Palace
someone can help me out ?
Ask in #1057825333841240104, just make sure to tell that it isnt related to mods
can i improve this setup for ||the hollow knight||
this is my inventory
8 masks and 2 soul vessels
nope
this is impossible
i would remove ||sharp shadow and soul catcher|| and use ||quickslash + steady body/grubsong|| instead, but go with what you're the most comfortable with (also take in account if you use more ||spells or nail||)
then ||keep shaman stone for the fireballs||, and use ||quickslash|| for your nail + ||mark of pride if you like it||
ill throw grubsong in my last slot
lets see if this goes any better
how do i dodge the shockwave attack
hello ||why are the mantis enemies not attacking me||
i also see you have ||descending dark||, you can use it too, it is very good and deals a lot of damage wile ||making you invincible for a short period of time||
||you beat the mantis lords||
oh
(btw spoiler ||mantis lorde|| ||like that||)
i keep getting killed by this one attack
you mean the attack where ||he teleports above you, slams to the ground and flame pillars appear||?
ye
also my attempts are getting more terrible each time
just walk to avoid the ||flame pillars||, you can also use ||descending dark|| when he does this attack to get ||invincibility frames and have more time to dodge||
after first healing window he ||gets significantly faster too||
i don't think he does, but he gets ||new attacks||
||he does definitely become faster||
it also doesnt help that || the flame pillars deal 2 dmg||
So I keep failing on getting to the ||Lever to the Mantis Lords|| and now I want to cry. So , I marked the area for later, rn all I got is the ||vengeful spirit, mantis claw and regular dash||
After which abilities will this puzzle get easier?
can we maybe go into vc? i might be able to help you
or do you specifically want help here
I don't care one way or the other
meet me in general 2
then ill help you here

Are you asking for suggestions ||for the remaining slots?||
Id say like mark

<@&283547423706447872> not spoiler tagged
||Soul stealer||
Well hello there
||id use spell twister||
im using ||twister rn but idrn soul stealer i barely ever heal or use spells, i only ever use spells when i have max soul or when markoth we all know what happens next||
||Why are u using shaman stone then if u barely use spells||
cuz ||markoth||
and
it works
and i use it barely
but it comes in clutch
somehow
idk
i use it on ||uumuu, markoth and even nosk and vengefly after i pogo on em||
adn ||both grimms||
||Abyss shriek also shreds radiance||
what does the most of damage : ||the big attack with a dash before or the big attack witch nothing || ?
YEA HIM TOO
nothing i think
but they all boost dmg by 33%
I just beat ||false knight||, is there any way to level up in this game? Like what do I do with the currency
||Buy things with the currency, you can upgrade your weapon and soul capacity but those require other stuff||
You'll find things to spend it on dw
Things like what?
I bought a compass for the map, what else is useful? Any skills that I can buy?
||Charms, notches, keys Iām pretty sure, and other random stuff you find throughout the game||
any tips for this room ?
I got a ||city crest|| is that any good?
And how can I upgrade my weapon or get dodge?
||From the false knight?||
Yes
||It allows u to get into another area later in the game||
||If you are talking about the dash, you get it after beating a boss, and for upgrading you will find an npc later on||
Ok, thanks
What's your ||Charms/inventory?||
What parts are you struggling with
||not a special part, just when they are 2 it's hard to dodge when one roll on the ground and the other bounce ||
Obviously unequip ||compass||
yeah but change for what ?
|| I would suggest going and buying some.more charms and stuff, theres some things in the 1st areas of the game.which you don't have which will help a lot||
How comfortable are you with using ||spells?||
||i use them a lot during the fight, i try to never be full energie||
||mostly the principal spells ||
Okay that's good
Do you remember the area where you found ||sly the shopkeeper?||
To the right of that, there should be a ||bench you may not have visited, check it out||
There's a way to cheese/make the fight slightly easier, would you like to know?
who's he ?
Dude who ||sold you the lantern||
ho yeah him
Do you remember where ||you first ran into him?||
Hint: ||it was somewhere in crossroads||
||Iām pretty sure thatās also right of the grub mother arena||
here ?
No, ||more down, more right||
More ||down and right||
Met ||sly|| or at least I think thatās his name, am I going in the right direction? Cause the map I got no map here anymore

Did you get a map for ||forgotten crossroads?||
Map should ||update after sitting on a bench if you have bought the quill or whatever it's called||
use spoil
I got one map from an npc, I didnt buy any
Also, delete this and send it as a spoiler
click on the eye when you send the photo to make it spoil
hoooo i know where that is
Yeah go buy more stuff from there lol
You can't access it rn
I canāt make the jump
This is the 4th time Iām back tracking in the last 20 mins
I officially donāt know where to go
Yeah hollow knight has a lot of places like this
You can't access everything in an area the 1st time you visit it, but you'll get more abilities later on
What's your inv?
But I donāt see any way to get out of here, I keep tying and running into a brick wall
Inv?
Inventory
Uhhh go left
Thatās the situation rn, where should I go?
There should be a ||breakable ceiling at one point||
Left of this
Thereās a way you can get there but itās not the intended way
You see that ||big skull looking thing in the middle||?
Try that
Also, check out the ||shops once you're back in dirtmouth||
||i hear singing, I know something good is waiting for me there (map)||
Isnāt that the boss? I did that
One suggestion, go backto ||iselda shop and buy the quill||
No lol Iām just hinting at it
Did you go left from there?
I canāt from the left
don't see anything looking very good
Do you want a bit of a spoiler?
Came*
Just about ||stuff from that shop||
After the ||false knight||
Tell me
If itās something effective I can buy lmk
||like secret shop|| ?
No like from that shop some suggestions on what to buy
hoo, yeah
Not yet you, bit later for ya
||shaman stone is one of the best charms in the entire game||
Do you have ||vengful spirit?||
Idk donāt think so
Potential spoiler but fuck it you'll find it within 2 mins if I tell you where to go
Alright
ok thx
Do you have a ||city crest||
Yes
What is it?
||these 2 charms does the same thing ?||
||Yes but one makes your weapon longer than the other||
and what if i play both ?
||Then u get an extra long weapon||
i need to try that
So after the ||boss that dropped city crest, go to the right
In the next room, go up and enter the purple pinkish area||
Wait itās a long way from where I am right now
||i replace quick notch (not sure about the translation) with it ?||
Can you describe what it does
||quick notch ? hit faster||
Oh ok
couldn't tell if it was that one or something else
||that one is also one of the best charms||
replace something else
||Hit the bell||
||can I fast travel now whenever I want?||
Honestly just try stuff out I'd say
||You need to unlock the station for other areas first||
Damn
.....||don't use compass||
when i will be next to it
There is a ||bench near the boss fight||
||so i add the second from the first image instead of compass|| ?
Over there you can ||change charms if you want to navigate with compass till there||
Yes
That is good
okok thx
||I took a right but I donāt see purple pink area||
Have you found the ||ancestral mound||?
He meant left instead of right
Oh yes mb
I was talking to two people and the other one had to go right lol
Also I have the sense of direction of a rock mb mb
So left after the ||false knight?||
