||you can wear defender's crest to help with that if you want. however what's more important is what spells you have. could you share a screenie of your spells?||
||Which spells are the best?||
||primall asprid||
|| they should be your top priority to take out ||
||Sure||
||I know||
Scp article
|| do you have dive yet?||
||yep||
you don't have to spoiler everything XD just the parts which are hollow knight spoilers
but spoilering everything is fine too :P
||And crystal heart||
Meh.

|| dive is a good spell to bully him with ||
OH NO
lol it's ok
didnt spoiler them lol
You can spoiler tag the images
yeah all good
There. fixed
Since i couldnt defeat this guy i went and found all the mask shards i could
do some more exploring you will get more ||charms||
||yeah so currently you have the white versions of the spells. i'd recommend coming back when at least one of them is dark||
||I think i have all the areas i currently CAN explore, i already have explored||
now its broke i am falling i cant pause
|| pretty sure they need the last movement item for that ||
YOU CANT SCARE ME LIKE THAT BRO
||how do you get them to be dark..?||
my heart is beating
|| also broken vessel is definitely beatable without them ||
so fast
sorry
to #1057825333841240104 you go!
explore!
|| for ddark you need wings no?||
no
you do not
send a pic of the map
its right||next to resting grounds, all you need is cdash to cross the gap||
||side note: currently, for your charms in this fight use shaman stone soul catcher and defender's crest||
that's
probably not the description i'd give 
Welll uhhh i cant really make a ss of the entire map in detail so here you go
||a lot of what you need is in peaks||
|| if you can get out of ancient basin find ddark if you really wanna bully the boss ||
I have a love hate relationship with ||peaks||, on one side, creatures are cute. other side. THEY ARE SO ANNOYINGGG
lol ture
i can tell u that u havent explored everything
As i said,, everything i currently can explore..
:|
|| peaks is fun for aesthetics. Anything else that place sucks ||
Butttt uhh, any good strats on how to beat ||broken vessel?||
so true
||Go back to the mantis lords and go through the door on the left||
|| if you give me a couple minutes I can reinstall hollowknight and try and beat him with the build you have||
didnt beat those quite yet, i was planning to but got side tracked cuz i accidentally found that uh. area under ||peaks||
Please do
Beat them up
I hate the ||mantis's ||
Beat up those || ladies ||
||use the charms shaman stone, soul catcher and defender's crest. shaman boosts spells while catcher gives you more soul. use spells a lot, both that you have. crest kills the balloons before they get to you, nice utility and you can heal safely||
PFF
||matins lords|| i would say are easier
||Once you beat them the mantis's will become peaceful||
And the spell i should use often is.. what exactly?
Oh noice. Ill do that then
both
i have to delete my save now
Alright
Why?
||Desolate & Vengeful spirit it is||
||with fireball try hitting both the balloons and the boss. try jumping over the boss and then diving for max damage (tho be sure to then move out)||
||when in doubt, just dive™||
i spawned under ground i cant pause i cant ||dream gate|| i cant use the bench warp mod
||Also pro tip for dealing with the balloons use a charm like spore shroom to instantly kill them||
why🇾 are you dying ☠️ to bosses?
Huh
It's ||broken vessel||
look
Huh
hate that guy
Do you have debug mod?
i am falling under ground
If so you can kill yourself if you want
i do but i cant even use the pause button
i cant find the mouse too
You don't really need the pause you can just set the keybinds in a different save then use that
|| I’m struggling to beat him now because I handicapped myself to your level lol ||
I unironically beat him on my first try soooo yeah
i actually can open it with F1 but i cant find the mouse
My friend told me he was easy. MAN HES SO HARD I CANT EVEN BEAT HIM WITH 40 ATTEMPTS
Took me like 7 and I didn’t unlock the shortcut to his room
|| he’s a skill check for sure. If you don’t mind could you record yourself fighting broken vessel?||
OH GREAT THE GAME CRASHED BEFORE IT OPENS
Uhhh i could turn on medal
No I mean go to a different save set the keybinds to kill yourself then go back to the save where you have the problem the kill yourself
There is a shortcut?
|| there’s a door to the right of his arena that lets you skip going down and around the giant blobs ||
HOW
Oh that
You said hollow knight crashed right?
YES
Go to a new save
@copper vector I’m gonna send you a clip
I PRESSED EVERY KEY POSSIBLE
NOPE NOTHING
Go to the mods menu and reset the keybindings for the debug mod
like look if this works
@grizzled hatch Sent you a clip in DM's cuz i dont think links of medal are allowed in here
or links at all
Ok go to a different save and press f1
ok
Then go through the binds menu till you find kill hero or eliminate hero then press the white circle then put like l as the bins for it
how can i pass through that ?
spoilers...
use spoiler
okok
that happens
on a serious note i don't know for certain so doing some searching could help
||but what i know for certain is you need shadow cloak to get through there||
or ||shade cloak||
USE spoiler
i got a mod that broke my whole save file
Do u have backup files saves on steam?

🔹 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 haven’t found, for example. These spoilers, though generally good-intentioned, can harm a player’s experience as any other spoiler would. Remember the game is non-linear; Always make sure to know what a player has and where they’ve reached. A simple screenshot of their map and inventory would tell you all you need to know.
You can check if there's any .bak files

Notes: These assume you're using Steam, with default locations. For GoG, locate your hollow_knight.exe folder, and then follow from there. The Save Files location is the same for all versions (except for XBox Games) and additionally contains Global Settings as well as your ModLog.txt. Some mod installers such as Lumafly can open these folders for you.

if u unistall the mod and platy hollow is it still corrupted?
look what i mean
its just a never ending fall?
thats so weird
Okay so 1st thing you should probably do is go to this folder and make copies of all the files there somewhere else
So that in case something worse happens you can recover your saves
And then head to #1057825333841240104
I haven't tried out any mods so I can't give any advice past this
i have a copy of the whole game but with only custom knight and i can hit while falling
i wanna try taking debug mod to that version so see if it works
Check here, maybe you'll find some solutions
might be dumb but waht if u just let it run for 20 min and see if anything changes
Did you set a keybind to kill yourself?
i didnt know how
Ok can you go to a different save?
I just realised you don't have to kill yourself
But you still need to set keybinds
okay i can but i but i cant change key binds
i went to the thing i cant custom them
After going to a different save open up your debug menu and look at the binds section
Do you see the glowing circle?
no
These
oh yeah
Press them then press the button you want to set as the keybind
I DID IT FINALLY
Set keybinds for noclip so you can fly and go through walls
a
Nice
THANKS
Did it work?
Just sit in a bench and it'll get fixed
I think
what bench im falling
Did you go noclip mode?
Yeah it lets you fly and go through walls
Everyone makes that mistake
can confirm, this is correct; although, some areas like this can have multiple possible entrances, so there's a chance that all you need is to approach it from a different angle
yeah true
I only really know any of this because I messed up my camera accidentally and had to become Sherlock homes to fix it
was just replaying the game the other day and managed to find an alternate path around one of those gates without needing to pass through (:
IM NOT DOING THIS
What happened
i broke the other save file continue button doesnt work
How do you keep breaking save files
i am askin the same thing
||I just realised you opened a file that should be in white palace but you ended up at God home||
i even gave ||godseeker|| the ||delicate flower||
its the ||hall of gods|| of pale court its not wrong at all
anyways ill check it another day but one thing NO PALE CORT FOR SILKSONG
What is the trigger ||for your Crossroads becoming infected?||
||Getting wings or a dreamer||
||When I absorbed my first Dreamer, my Crossroads became infected shortly after.||
I was surprised about the || second possible trigger (wings), I wonder why they felt the need to infect crossroads at that point ||
|| there’s a few theories why ||
|| from a gameplay prospective you now can go anywhere in the map. From a lore perspective I’ve seen theories that the wind from the wings was keeping the infection within the basin moving and once it was removed the wind ceased blowing which let the infection stagnate ||
|| yes lol. Eat up ||
||If you're wearing defenders crest he'll give you one for free||
|| didn’t know that. Interesting ||
no idea of what's that but ok thx
|| you’ll find it soon ||
don't drop unnecessary spoilers like that
Why?

Huh ok
||Does anyone know a way to make the hunter's diary easier? I just need it to get to 112%, I think ||
it's not a percent, just an achievement
Can someone help me navigate || crystal peak || just entered it from forgotten crossroads
(I'm at the bench)
you gotta spoiler tag ||forgotten crossroads|| as weird as it sounds
anyways, in general, go up
I thought I didn't have to since it's the first place u go to lol
K
if you reach a place where you can't keep going right, go up
K
you gotta spoiler ||king's pass|| even lol
i think it's because if you allow them then people keep trying to argue for exceptions
ohh
I'm here now
oh don't go in ||darkk rooms||
K
make a note of it and come back later
(Sorry I am a horrible person for sending this)
@robust ridge thanks for the advice, I found this sign
Found the map guy
Can't buy anything tho
I died
To a boss
At a bench 😭
||can i trust millibelle in fog cnayon with my money?||
||ive searche dit up but im.just getting vague answers about thr plrasure house which i already unlocked||
Oh, I didn't know, thanks for the help, but still, is there any way to make it easier?
How do || i fight zote I want to kick his azz||
||where have u encountered zote already?||
Do ||trial of warrior|| again
He’s at the end
How
not really sorry
||world sense|| gives you the number of entries you have out of the number of total entries
||no she takes it if you in put 2550 geo or more but you can get it back and more by finding her in the pleasure house||
guys someone tell me how the fuck ||gpz big slam|| works
i'ts the second time i lose to ts
what about it dont you understand?
||Do it all over again???||
how it can pinpoint my position 5 seconds after the attack starts
Yep
||where he falls out of the ceiling?||
he only lands five seconds after the attack starts
yh
||#i find it best to just use d-dark||
i'll try that yeah
||u can easily react to where gpz falls, if u see him spawn right above u then just dash out of the way if u dont have enough soul for a spell. and if u have the soul u should just ddark it||
Yw

||any tips for uumuu?||
|| kill that old man ||
|| base game or pantheon?||
||Ry stuck in p3 too? ||
||base game||
Ho
|| move around the arena. Let quirrel break the shield and then attack ||
|| umu only has 2 attacks ||
||yeah theyre super annoying||
||is this a miniboss?? i don't want to be struggling on a miniboss||
Good luck on ||p3||
||p3??||
||I'm still stuck on there||
|| don’t worry about it yet ||
|| no clue what were talking about, I'm still at crystal peak lol, but @strong geode, there might be a p100||
|| it’s still a mainline boss. What are you struggling with?||
||i usually get cornered or get hit while moving to uumuu while it's vulnerable||
|| avoid corners, keep moving the whole time. Try and stay close to umu ||
|| they are a very weak boss in terms of health. It shouldn’t take more than 4 cycles to kill it ||
||4 ONLY??||
||with channeled nail?||
|| they’re a weak boss||
|| about as much health as greenpath hornet ||
||hmm okay||
Need some help with charms: ||I think a good loadout would use Steady Body, Quick Slash, Mark of pride, Unbreakable Strength and void heart (ofc lol) but I still have 1 charm left then so what should I add/change or should I overcharm and go for Fury of the Fallen???||
||I would go with nail master or whatever its called the one that let's you charge arts faster||
ooh bet ty dude
Np
||generally for 1-notch charms as mentioned nailmaster's glory, grubsong or dream wielder are good.
I wouldn't really recommend mark of pride though. Shaman stone is way stronger. Quick focus would work as well but I recommend trying to use more spells and using shaman stone||
||I really suck at using spells lol I always forget to use them, thats why I went for nail only but I can give it a shot, ty!||
||well, they need to be practiced of course. The only way to do that is to use them over and over again until you get used to them. A nail only build is worse but still viable. But in that case you'd also not use mark of pride but something like quick focus, shape of unn or catcher instead||
||so what if Instead of MoP I went with shaman and then the Nail art, would that be good?||
shit I keep forgetting to hide
||yeah generally shaman paired with no matter what is always good. Spells really are that broken. Nailmaster's glory is great as well but it kind of depends on the boss fight. If you are able to use nailarts well (like on many warrior dreams and some other fights) glory is great. Grubsong or if you use it dream wielder is great for pretty much anything else||
great thats awesome tysm🙏
The great spoilering of '92
YOUR TAKING TO LONG
No idea what to do now. A hint would be much appreciated.
🤔 seems like you could ||check out that one remaining big marker on the map|| assuming you haven't already
beyond that i'll need more details
I have already defeated that marker but it ends the game. I loaded the save prior to defeating.
I thinkg I have it now. Thank you anyway.
have you by chance ||collected 1800 essence||?
Spoil
Oh
Add these at the end and beginning of your sentence ||
Np
@hoary anvil No I am at 1480 I believe? But I just found two warrior spirits I didn't have marked.
i dont need help but i can be of help
first off

second off, that's a good thing to work towards
(no ||farming random enemies/the trees|| necessary, if you're struggling to find more there's ||rematch versions of several bosses near their arenas||, specifically ||false knight (above the arena), soul master, lost kin, dung defender (dive under the lever)||)
this channel is for unmodded help. you should ask in #1057825333841240104 instead.
Okay, sorry about that
||how much essence do you get total?||
from all of the ||bosses||
||more than 2400||
oh alr dang
can someone tell me what to do after this?
wait how ||fungal entry from left?||
||greenpath -> fog canyon -> queens station -> fungal wastes||
||greenpath fog?||
theres a path there?
am i tweaking
yeah lol
riggggght
thanks will check it
||does completing a boss hitless ascended give you radiant badge?||
||i finished ascended no eyes the other day while i was practicing for p5 and i did him hitless and it gave me the radiant badge||
||id never beaten them ascended before so i didnt have the radiant mode unlocked||
is that a glitch
maybe. did u have any mods installed?
none
well its definitely not supposed to do that
yea ||in fact ive seen many complaints of ppl beating hard bosses hitless on ascended and not getting radiant for it||. ive experienced it myself
yeah ive seen them too thats why i was wondering if it was an update or something
Do u unlock || the radiance || in the || hall of gods? ||
You should figure that out yourself
||only absolute radiance after attempting it in pantheon 5||
Uh i have an issue with loading..
I didnt change anything with hollow knight but its not loading one specific area
Nevermind ig
|| I'm working on 112% and I've been struggling with the grimmkin nightmares quite a bit - does anyone have tips for handling them and maybe charm recommendations? (I'm currently using grimmchild, grubsong, glowing womb, unbreakable heart, defenders crest and weaversong, kind of going for more of a support/minion build) ||
hello, please spoiler your message as per channel rules, thank you
Oh sorry I'll fix that
what other charms do u have?
All of them
the main way to handle them is
- careful prep, place a ||dreamgate down, come in with lots of soul and full health
- not panicking when fighting them : you can't touch them while they attack, cuz they will move a ton, so wait for them to attack, dodge their attack, then hit back with a shade soul, a nail art or something||
||okay so i would strongly suggest against a minion build. just do a mostly spell based build for them and spam fireballs at them. so charms like shaman stone and spell twister are good, u can also consider other charms like nailmasters glory, mark of pride, grubsong, strength (if u r really afraid to break it u dont need to use it)||
Thanks both of you, I'll definitely try all of this and hopefully soon I'll get the hang of it =)))
Alternative solution || banish them instead of going for nkg ||
But if you like minion charms that's probably not what you want
I have considered that but I'm very invested in the path I'm currently on, especially since I only need one more
Also I'm super excited for || nkg ||
Yeah that boss would only appear very late otherwise
can you only unlock ||godhome|| after you've beaten ||every boss?||
no, ||godhome itself is actually quite easy to access||
tho i wouldnt suggest putting in serious effort to get far in ||godhome|| without max gear
Are you looking for ||how to get into godhome then?||
|| I need help completing the Mr. Mushroom achievement. He isn't in his fungal location (all that's there is a note from cornifer)||
yes
||then u probably already did the first location and forgot about it. try to go to his second location and see if hes there||
Can you show a map of your ||waterways||
I'm assuming you have the area cuz max gear
||struggling on false champion 💔 ||
he combos the hell out of me
||i dont gain soul for attacking em TmT||
|| do you know the stagger trick?||
nope
|| when false champion is staggered you can reset his timer by down slashing on the back of his armor while he’s down ||
|| you can dream nail him once for soul then hit the shell and repeat ||
|| you can also get 2 heals in and then reset the timer ||
is there like a video demonstrating it? ;v;
I’ll dm you
||I've checked the first 4 locations and he isn't there, is it possible i've messed it up in this save file? ||
||okay u most likely dont have the prerequisite for him to show up then. can i see a screenshot ur inventory and map to make sure?||
||okay yea u havent done the prerequisite for mr mushroom to show up. i could tell u what it is if u want, its quite simple||
Yes please this is my 2nd playthrough you won't spoil anything
||okay its quite simple u just need to kill all three dreamers for mr mushroom to show up. just get ur last dreamer herrah and mr mushroom should appear in fungal wastes||
domo.
i need a ||simple key||. where is the ||simple key at the colo||?
Please edit your message with spoiler tags
well
||Go right from the bench||
||found a bath. what's next||
Go up before the|| bath ||and then go right
what's supposed to be there
A breakable wall
|| keep going left ||
Go left from the ||bench above you, some kinda breakable wall or something look for it||
|| there will be a bellfly near that wall iirc ||
floor?
oh wait found it
where now ;-;
Keep going left
to the ||junk pit?||
Yes
Noice welcome
how do i unlock it as a ||new save file?||
Oh you're looking for ||godseeker||?
That needs some more work
Explore ||godhome, did you find any challenges, locked/unlocked doors, etc?||
yes
You found the ||pantheons?||
||master|| etc?
Do that, the answer will reveal itself in due time
ts so fun]
does anyone have the knight slash sprite
😛😛
where do i go from here?
Check the bottom left path. And before you ask, no this is not where you came from, although the way the room is made causes people to get confused about that
(me included on my 1st playthrough)
the sprites are pinned in #art-discussion It's probably in there somewhere
ahh thank you
||to guys i just got abyss shriek and cloak, what do i go for next? i got 823 essence or smt like that, do i go for nosk?||
||can definitely do nosk with those without much trouble||
||if you haven't beaten the game yet do that. Otherwise just get more essence, charms, nail upgrades etc.||
||im not sure where to get godtuner, ive completed p5, ive freed the godseeker with the simple key obviously, and when i talk to godseeker it says "Thou covet the Godtuner. Desire beyond desire! Take it then, for We have ascended beyond it. No need for such an instrument".||
||You were supposed to pick it up before entering godhome, if it's not outside of the coffin it glitched away||
So then you'd need to save edit to get it
do you know what i need to edit by any chance
I think
is this a softlock
no i think everything was functionable
Idk what 'this' is but no there are no softlocks
just that i was missing 1% in completion
How do I get the ||Neglect Achievement||? I'm staring at ||Zote's corpse|| right now but I still haven't gotten it
||kick the head||
that’s cold
What? Its my second playthrough I needed the achievement 🙁
i mean ||kick Zote's head||
I was replying to the other guy lol
oh damn
But thanks I don't know why I didn't think of that first
yea it's a strange way to get the achievement
silksong is coming in the next 48 hours lets gooooooooooo
Keep it in #sk-discussion please
my fault
Time to lock in and ||finally finish white palace and pantheons||
Any tips for ||white palace?
I'm stuck in the room with wingsmoulds and saws, the place where you enter pop from||
Only tip I have is to use ||Deep focus and Hive Blood||
Otherwise get good I guess
Yes that and ||grubsong||
That too
indeed
i dont think i can finish ||p5|| in two days 😭
I haven't even done ||P1|| lol
I'm gonna leave every channel except this one once silksong comes put

HELP IM HAVING A HEART ATTACK FOR SILKSONG
Also how do I ||radiant hornet sentinel bc I need actual help beating her||
||i can't bounce high enough from these spikes at the end to get on the platform||
do i need some item or is it skill issue?
theres an ability you need to get to travers this
you need an item
thanks peeps!
Can't you just pogo across?
Ability
No
I mean actually yeah
But it’s really hard
So skill issue
No you need your shade
||Shade||? I thought you needed ||Crystal heart||
how do I ||radiant hornet sentinel bc I need actual help beating her||
Dawg you can do it with your shade
Practice a lot. Also, don't hold back. Get hits in whenever you can. Especially in her second stage. ||Use charms like shaman stone and other spell boosting charms in||
||Also use Dream Wielder to get soul while she's staggered||
You need your shade and ||6 hp|| so you can pogo 3 times to get up
Ty ^-^
If you want I can send you a video of me doing it it'll take like five ten minuets though
No it’s fine
Ok

i dont want to change my charm setup since i want to keep my charms, ||especially for absrad and pv||, but i am STRUGGLING. ||my charms are pretty nail-heavy, but even when i use my spells, the delay before the knight moves means i end up getting hit anyway. do i just need to practice or is there any specific movement tech i should be working on||
so much spoiler
i have no idea waht im doing lmao
its ||p5|| related
this is my first time talking in here unforunately
i can adjust it if thats easier
you should spoiler ||P5||
gotcha, thank you :)
u can change ur charm setup right before the fight with
but i cant change it after
||abs rad and pv||
OH YOU CAN?
yes theres 1 last bench
GOTCHA. that helps a lot, maybe ill consider tweaking my setup a little bit then. thank you!
||Practice a lot in the hall of gods yes. Beyond that, for the first phase i'd recommend gathering soul with nail arts. Then in the 2nd phase use gathered soul to quickly end the fight with shade souls (use shaman)||
dont forget that ||nkg|| is in the same like rush as ||markoth||
So tweak accordingly
i do ||nkg|| as a warmup so im not worried about him, but that probably will impact some of my choices
thank you!
||i can NEVER time the nail arts for the life of me, but ill give it a few tries. thank you!||
Vai tomar no cú
Server is english only
i'm in the ||colosseum of fools, is this a good setup?||
||I'd swap baldur to catcher||
||You are there quite early though so if its too hard, feel no shame for going back to explore||
||i'll try that next time||
||nahh, imma beat the second stage first, then use the precious metal to upgrade my nail (i presume) then go back||
what?\
i'm also ||removing steady body bc that killed me due to not being able to boost up by hitting enemies||
||this is my current set||
yeah
in the hollow knight videogame help channel in the hollow knight discord server?
where experienced players help less experienced players with the game?
If you don't know about what ppl are asking, that means it's later stuff you haven't seen and will make sense once you get there
I would suggest going and exploring more gettimg more charms etv
It's by no means impossible with your current setup, but there are things that'll make it much easier

Why is this game so addicting lol
thank you good sir
||Yeah, it isnt that good for colo||

Do you want a hint for || watchers?||
You can ||pre kill one of them||
Also, ||spiders are bad lol don't use em||
Show charms/inventory
and ||Stalwart Shell|| is?
Can you send a screenshot of your inventory and charms
||I'd say stalwart+sshroom is a bit better yes. Not that they are perfect either, but with the most annoying enemies being flying ones which you cant hit twice in a row anyways, qs doesnt help much||
uhh one minute
No stress
Multiple ||enemies on screen at the same time can be annoying af||

dont think so
you can ||fight 5 instead of 6||
any tips for ||grimm fight|| trying to progress my platnium just cant figure him out also havent played in maybe 4-6 months
HOW??
||Right after the elevator, before entering the arena there is a breakable ceiling, go up and you will be able to kill 1||
||before u enter the room theres a piece of wall u can break for a side area to drop the chandelier on one of them before the fight||
THANK YOU
warm up separately for sure lmao, but after that it kinda depends?? is there a specific part you struggle with?
Uhhh maybe delete this
They may not know about ||nkg||
Massive spoiler if they don't
|| just the Kg not nkg havent been able to progress his fight past like the 3rd phase||
I just not patient enough or got the right set ups mainly || I also havent beaten the 3rd trial So I down a notch still||
just on a struggle bus lately with this game hahs
honestly your setup isnt the biggest deal. let me think for a sec
is there any reward || for giving the flower to others or just make them feel better||
||mask shard||
||if you give godseeker one, it changes an ending cutscene|| but thats all i know
Not for others
oh yeah I forgot about that one
Any tips for ||oro and mato||?
Stay on one side of them, don't be in the middle. If you need to escape ||ddark|| and run. Be aware of ||oro|| charging the dash attack
okay. ||grimm|| advice
- ||do NOT get greedy. limit yourself to like one or two hits per attack. since hes a really mobile boss, trying to get those extra hits in put you at risk of getting hit yourself||
- ||grimm|is a marathon, not a sprint. his attacks do not change throughout the fight, its the same speed & attacks the whole way through.||
- ||practice finding healing opportunities. i tend to heal during his spikes attack, if i use quickfocus i can usually fire off two heals before his next attack||
- ||shade cloak is really helpful for getting through his bats if you mistime a jump! and dashing midair helps with his dive & dash attack||
- ||if you have shape of unn, you can dodge the bats by healing when he sends them at you. just remember to get out of the way as soon as you're done, or you'll just get hit again!||
- ||when he turns into a little bat, you can attack to get soul, or stop and heal. both work.||
- ||monarch wings help a LOT for the pufferfish attack, in case you dont touch the ground fast enough after jumping fireballs. i handle that attack by sticking to one side of the arena, and jumping only when i have to.||
||also you can use the pufferfish attack as a means of tracking your progress, usually theres 2-4 of them per fight, and ive only ever gotten 2 bat transformations max||.
you can just tag the whole thing 😭
also ||dash|| needs tags
and ||quickfocus||
fixed it, thank you 🫡
okay so guys imma try fixing my save files........... again
DUDE I SWEAR ||P5|| IS SO EASY UNTIL FRICKIN ||MARKOTH|| RUINS MY ENTIRE RUN
I DIE EVERY SINGLE TIME
i feel ya
if the frickin arena wasn't different it would ez but no they had to ||remove the floor||
it is different
BUT WHY PUTTING HIM AND NOT ANYONE ELSE
I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE I FEEL YOU
is this the ||path of pain|| that everyone's talking about?
i dont want to scroll back up and find it but whoever said ||use nail arts for markoth's first phase and shade soul him second phase||, i just beat him three times in a row for the first time ever
thank you so much
thats wort than it
|| no, these are the pantheons||
oh ok, it's pretty painful though
|| yeah the pantheons are tough. The PoP is somewhere else tho ||
you are cooked ||path of pain|| isnt close at all
yeah there's a lot of content I missed because I never got ||wings||
then you should practice
practice isnt that easy
||the act of practicing is. The boss might not be easy but going into hog and doing that instead of doing p5 is not challenging||
gg
|| markoth really isn’t bad if you just nuke them with spells ||
okay WHY CANT I PRACTISE IN THAT MAP ON ||ATTUNED|| HUH
EGGSACTLY (yes i said that) i cant be full soul
I DONT WANT TO
there is no difference really
i cant at all
my method for stuff like that is ||get REALLY good at them on attuned, and then hammer in that skill by fighting them on ascended||
if you can reduce the amount of hits you take per fight while still winning, it'll be even easier when ||you fight the bosses in the actual pantheons||
well i cant get less than 5 hits in 20 seconds
you need more practice then 
i mean i cant fight him anymore
||In my previous run I didn’t save Zote, so I started a new game just for that — but I totally forgot about it, already played for an hour and killed the Broken Vessel. Because of that Dirtmouth is infected now. Do you know if it’s still possible to save Zote a second time?||
this is why
||does anyone know where the grimm theme in the main menu is in the files?||
hold on let me finish my fall
after saving ||zote once you can always go to the second spot||
||So I can go kill the dreams now and save him? ||
yup
So, it doesn't matter in what sequence?
as long as you save him in ||greenpath imediatly no||
||And then there's the question. Regardless of what kind of things I do, for 100%? Like, I'll just pass the Pantheon than run there here? ||
is there a way to fal faster
inventory drop
wdym?
||descending dive?||
i cant use inventory and i cant pause to bench warp i cant get soul
I mean, what ||should I do to achieve a 100 percent game? Does it depend on something or do I just have to get 100 percent and that's enough? ||
please tag this ||like this||
Quit the game
Uninstall benchwarp, install benchwarpfix
Open your save
voila
||it's in extras||
i teleported out of the map so i am noclipping to reatch a certain place
NO I AINT LEAVING AGAIN
What
not everything ||counts to 100%(the journal for example) but pretty much everything like charms, abilities etc||
What are you even trying to do
i meant in the files
yea but its not really a spoiler
try asking in #modding-discussion
ok
do i get anything from deafeating final stage || zote the mighty ||?
it still needs tags
||Like, if I decide to go through the Pantheon, instead of rocking the Nail to get 100%, that'll count? ||
There is a small visual change
a small visual change?
||oh mb||
there is 5 names i am missing......
||cyclone slash||
Okay so why don't you want to quit out
didnt work at all
you don't need to do it. It doesn't give you anything useful
And yes spoiler tags
Ah.
any percantage?
my spawn point is out side so no
Thommie you got this 
Okay so if you read what I said then you'd realise that doesn't fucking matter
i am stuck
Hi stuck
||benchwarp?||
only valid response at this point
.. i got stuck
I already told you how to solve it
bro is cooking
I CANT PAUSE
you don't need to pause to quit the game
- Using a BenchWarp Deployed Bench in new areas will break the file
- If you accidentally do this, then close the game, disable Benchwarp, then open the file again. Get off the bench you spawn at, and sit down again. Then save+quit, and you should be able to enable Benchwarp again.
- Alternatively, you can open your
user#.modded.jsonfor that file, and edit"atDeployedBench": true,->"atDeployedBench": false,. You can type?tag savefaqfor more information. - Alternatively, you can do what I said about 5 minutes ago
alt+f4
NO YOU CANT DO THAT AT ALL
Reminder that this is #hk-help and not #1057825333841240104 , images with spoilers still need tags
As much as id adore to, no i cant
Damn can't help them then
Part of the modding job is "no one will ever actually read any useful information and they WILL ignore all your efforts for help", if you didnt know that you should go on the modding channels more often bestie
I know 😔
This is copy pasted straight from the job info
i need to go 0.0 position
Ok bestie please dont
sorry smoil
You should make a post in #1057825333841240104 after readin the pinned FAQ in there
i didnt know how
You go in there, click on the post that says FAQ and read it
no
After youve done so, you click the blue button at the bottom right if on mobile, and in the top left in pc i believe
Top right
Dammit
ok what
what what
Hey y'all! I got lost here again. ||This is after the Hornet boss fight, where I got the mothwing cloak.. I heard to go left but there's nothing here.||
you went the wrong way
You need an additional item before you can go left
it’s like
down
you kinda go into the left, and there should be a way to go down
from the arena
Go back to the right
Let me try and tell you if I found it
||You can jump and dash in midair||
How do I unlock the door in ||Kings Station||?
You can't
idk lol
It has a different enterance
not possible
What??
alt entrance is cool
okay i killed myself the game crashed
uhm.
Images still need to be spoiler tagged
I tried literally everything to open it. You can't, trust me
i think?
SERIOUSLY
Yeah life is hard when you ignore the solutions being told to you
i didn't find it.. maybe im just dumb but I don't see anything that goes down..
UNREADABLE WORDS
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
send a ss of the area rq, or the map if you have it.
Deleting the image is less effort than arguing it
worst case scenario you kinda just kill yourself with an enemy.
and warp back to a bench that way
or save and quit
||https://youtu.be/ViZIY8sZLKo|| (don't go left)
I gave up
I found the bottom entrance lol
go to the arena
Still confused why you cant open it
yeah?
Probably no need to and to make you think idk
ig that makes sense
||Greenpath||
||Greenpath||
||greenpath||
thanks
Or ||Queens Garden||
is that like end-game stuff?
Dw about it yet
Nevermind don't worry about it
yeah i’m lost
k
No
Spoiler tags
Go down, and to the right, there's like a path to teach you how to ||dash||

lemme load up hk rq
im figuring out one way or another
||I recommend you go back to dirtmouth (the town at the beginning of the game) and buy some map supplies like the compass and the quill. They will be extremely helpful||
he’s stuck in the arena
rn
||is that like at the same trader as the lantern one?||
||in a house right next to it||
k
go left on the arena and go all the way down until you’re at the split path
then go right
then do this
What do I do here?
spoiler
also hit it
I put a spoiler?
visual error then
Nothing more will happen upon hitting it
any tips for ||3rd trial in the colloseum or however u spell that||
|| I just beat the game around 55 percent completion or so, I want to go for the radiance boss but if I just wander around and explore will I eventually beat the boss or do i need to watch some guides?||
You probably want to wander around more
There's also certain steps in order to beat the ||Radiance||
Have all items and upgrades
|| try to have u r nail upgrade to the max maybe try to have the max health too ||
||how much max health? i have max nail||
do i need a guide to do that or is it possible of i just explore and eventually ill beat it?
The latter is pretty doable
You can just explore, but if you aren't sure where to go you can look at a guide too
||9 masks||
||okkk i got 7 rn i think ||
Have you gone through the ||White Palace|| yet?
|| u can also try to have all the Charm Notches ||
can no one spoil js say the number of places am missing on the map
0
lmao
How do we know what creature we have left to discover please?
nope
i just wandered around and ||killed all the dreamers and killed the final boss||
I'd start there
ion even know what that is lol
a ig ima try to find secret areas now
You can't even fight ||The Radiance|| until you beat ||White Palace||
ok so i guess ima just explore untill in find this place ig?
You don't, although there is this

|| It's not for someone who plays these kinds of games. But if you've just started playing these kinds of games, yes, I think... ||
||i reached chapter 9 in celeste before 😭 does that count||
lmao
- you should be doing it with maxed out equipment, upgrades, and charms
- you need a different approach than you'd normally use for combat
okay
i just almost beat || pantheon 4, i got pv till like 10% of his health 😭, at this point i need mental help /jk ||
Anyone tips for || pure vessel?? ||
||pogo over the triple slash and lunge
save shade dash for the knives
always be ready for a dive attack
heal only during staggers or the focus attack
make sure you're watching pv closely or ddark for safety at the end of the focus attack as it can start a new move while the small explosions are still around
jump and pogo/dive pv for void tendrils||
|| train u with him in the Hall of Gods ||
||Practice in the hall of gods if you aren't already||
it did not work🙏🙏 ||https://youtu.be/Q9fMYKWrlq4|| im sorry i may be stupid
kill enemies there until you have 50 geo then buy the ||stag station||
i did
did you not get any other ones
i did. ||I got the forgotten roads (i think that's the name) and the dirtmouth||
why don’t you use the ||stag|| to go there then
to where? the ||forgotten roads||?
okay im here. at ||dirtmouth||
so i need to || fireball 3 times when he does his focus attack? and is using shriek necesarily? ||
now you can go around now
I already did the other 70% of what you did lmao
no i don't recommend doing that
the ||shrieks|| are effective though
should i play more safe?
but are they riskful?
once you get used to it no
