You should get a job then it’s great

Fellas is it taboo to search up some guides when ur close to completion?
mmmmm spoodor
Even if i doubt its going to be more than 20 euros
I DONT KNOW I SCREAMED THE FIRSTIME I SAW THE ||BUGS RISE FROM THE DEAD AND GROW LEGS||
how much is 20 euros in dollars
||I KNOW RIGHT||
about the same
Uhhhh likeeee 25? at max?
The difference is not that much
Fixed
oh okay
that profile is not tuff
Like if HK is (14?) euros, I think Silk song wont be that much more
no
I imagine they taste the same as Escargot
oh I-
Tho they dont taste good so
imagine how gross they would taste though
I WAS NOT GIVING IT A COMPLIMENT,
Mehh
Also how can people hate the little uh
||forgets the name of the little leaf dudes in.. whatever that area is.. GREENPATH||

OMG YES ATHATS LIT THE BEST AREA OMG??
WHAT DID THEY DO BESIDE ||BLOW UP||
HPW can ppl hate it
IKR
PFF
I mean i guess the creatures in ||crystal peaks|| are annoying as hell, but STILL, the most peak area of the game (Pun majorly intended)
OOP
Who doesn’t love || laser bugs ||?
Gets zapped by ||Laser bug||

Struggles with spoilers 😭
Nothing causes me fury quite like them

But i promised my first playthrough would be a clean one
o

SERIOUSLY?? HOW I HATE THEM SO MUC
HELP RT

|| pantheons ||
Well yes
Gets major spoilers

OUP
Uhm… I’m so spoiled by endgame gear that I literally can’t help with that fight in particular
Alright. Time to close the HK discord and try to do hornet... Ha..
Anyways rq anyone got uh
||Any spells i can get rn? Cuz i have no idea what to do||
do u have
I upgraded ||D dive||, ||Vengeful spirit||
|| Well what spells and gear do you have ||
||wraiths||
Also spoilers
that needs spoilers?
Ya
Yup. Anything post || dirtmouth ||
||but spells is like a main part of combat lol||
oh.
We’re very extremely strict on spoilers here
Oop
Fair nough
ya
But anyone got sm for me? I think i got a screenie of my gear hold up
||My charms:||
HOLY FINALLY I BEAT ||P5 MARKOTH||
||mark of pride def helps||
w!!
NICEEE
Why does that helppp?
||use mark of pride and shamans!||
I have no idea what it is. but good job?
IM SO PROUD OF YOU ANONYMOUS USER
What it does helps u avoid her attacks
I got ||shamans||
Ohhh
OOP is blind cutely 
(It drove me insane the first many times)
Now excuse me for a moment while i
TRY to beat this absolute-
can we swear. I forgot the rules hold up
She’s perfect. Be nice 
I mean she is. BUT SHES SO ANNOYING TO BEAT IF HK IS YOUR FIRST METRIODVANIA
This question is either really funny to me or entirely agreed with. I can’t tell which.
Because I can’t ask
Lol XD
||But shes like. Her character development and lore is pretty much spot on. but her combat. JEEZ it goes from meh pretty do-able||
TO NOT DOABLE
does that need spoilers.
Is there a way to get these trading cards? ||https://i.imgur.com/lT5Ca1O.png||
when in doubt: Spoiler it
actually ||dirtmouth|| needs to be spoiled too...
even ||king's pass||
Huh. Changed since a mod last told me off ig
i asked a mod about it and they said it was because people kept making dumb exceptions with the old rules
like ||"howling cliffs is technically before dirtmouth"||
That is dumb
That’s fair. I’ve just been working off || post dirtmouth || as a rule of thumb since a mod I can’t remember said as much a year or two ago
No they didn’t
What
That’s ridiculous
well it is possible with a skip
Quick question about ||Kings station||
Theres a broken ||Bench|| in there, does that get fixed at any point?
Same with the ||Stag station||
Still stupid
||you're in the wrong room, go up one
something else may be in that room, though...||
it is yeah
Hu- well alright ill check it out
But also… no.
Oh yeah found it, thanks XD
||Can I go kill the Boss of the Game, even though I haven't done a lot yet? ||
did you get the ||dreamers||?
that's what unlocks it
i think he knows
It's hard to tell what he's trying to say
That was my best guess
||I already killed them a long time ago, like in the first hour of the game. I figured out how to get the Monarch Wings and all the other buffs in just half an hour.||
What are you asking about then?
I can't really tell what you were saying in your original message
What should I do after beating || p4 ||
||did you find the thing about p4 yet?||
Typo mb
i know but he already got || in the black egg tample|| on thre other save
Above
||Will I still get the 100% achievement if I go and kill him now, even though I’ve only got 7 masks?||
yes but he may not know what exactly opened it? not sure what else he could've been saying
oh, yes
it's for 100%, not 112%
you could try some ||hall of gods radiants||
or doing challenge runs/speedruns
I’ve already got the 112% achievement. Hehe.
Is there something || behind the gates in hall of gods?? ||
The achievements which say 100% are gotten when it says 100% in game, not true 100% completion
You only have to do 112 once for all achievements
Just a ||journal entry|| and a surprise
The surprise is unlocked by ||reaching the end of p5||
||Steel Soul 100%||
Yes, that one ends at 100%
Okay, so I'll play the game in about 9 hours 100% in the ||Steel Soul.||
So*
You need to spoiler tag ||steel soul|| by the way
o alright, do i need that || journal entry for the guy that collects the journal entries??||
Hey, anyone have any tips for ||the radiance||?
Oh right, I forgot to ask — how do I make ||Hornet help me during a fight, but without it being the Radiance ending?||
Nope
||just kill the hollow knight instead of dream nailing it||
alright thanks
||Most of the dlc entries aren't needed||
Do you have full gear?
Yes
I mean the fact that ||Hornet isn’t by the Egg. So that means she won’t be helping — what triggers her to show up and help?||
i got like || 150 entries|| is this enough?
Oh, ||void heart||
I forgot honestly
Just check the wiki
You're kind of beyond spoilers now
So I’ll have to go ||through the White Palace,|| right?
Yeah
I’m already making a fourth save just for the achievements...
That's pretty normal, I think I made 3
Yes
I gotta go now sorry you'll have to find someone else to help
I just ||died once on the final boss in Steel Soul.||
In general just ||don't chase her down during the platforms phase||
That's the #1 tip I can give in the next minute before I have to go
Ok thanks
That’s why this is my fourth save.
I did it, ||cleared the White Palace|| in 8 minutes. Hell yeah!
||From here where do I go I feel so lost and I can't get to the map guy there is a black wall that I can't cross||
||You can't get that map yet. Just forgot about it for now and go further right from queens station||
thank you
Please edit your message with spoiler tags
honestly I don’t think ppl knows about « p3 ». If they know what it is, well they alr got spoiled.
||is it ok to struggle on the radiance? doesnt make me bad right?||
Honestly thanks for your opinion, but read the pins
||Struggling on a final boss is quite normal yes||
No problem, I’ll do it next time 👍
coolsy
Do you need help on it?
So, edit your message or delete it
not rn just some tips would be nice tho
||like this||
alr
Any specific attacks you are struggling with
Any tips for ||P3||?
not rn i only did one attempt thinking it was
||pure vessel||
||Practice bosses you are struggling with in the hall of gods. Beyond that, any specific bosses you are struggling with you need tips for?||
its all about memorizing his attacks, and have a good build
Then do more attempts to find your struggles and get better
||I alr beat sly in hall of gods, and I make it to the end every run (in p3). But I always start with 4/5 masks + no soul. And uulu is so annoying 💀. Idk if its my build or js the way I’m playing…||
il possibly try to win tmr but prob not gonna finsh cuz i heard its the hardest boss in the game
||so main priorty tmr is mr mushroom ending ig||
||If you are starting at 4 masks you should practice hornet and uumuu more||
You were right.
|| yea I only need tips for uumuu I think. He’s so randommm||
|| hit the jellyfish when they’re close to him ||
|| get good at gallien so you start with full health ||
|| master slys main attack pattern and you basically win the fight ||
|| if you can easily dodge and then attack him after his main double slash then you win ||
||Uumuu wall by AppleEgg101#6467
Lightning Chase: Uumuu tracks the Knight with bursts of lightning. These bursts appear quickly and each last for two seconds. The attack lasts a total of six seconds, and can be dodged by dashing and double jumping around the arena.
Lightning Flash: Uumuu creates random bursts of lightning around the arena. These bursts persist for a second and cover most of the arena, but there will always be a safe space. The attack lasts 2.5 seconds.
Float: After each attack, Uumuu will slowly float toward the Knight for 3 seconds.
Summon Ooma: Uumuu screeches, summoning two Oomas (long jellyfish that have exploding cores) that float up to the top of the screen. While their cores are unexposed, they pass through platforms. Their explosive cores can be directed to hit Uumuu, dealing 100 damage while also breaking its membrane for 5 seconds. There are multiple methods of doing this:
- Having the Ooma be right in between Uumuu and the Knight and shooting it into Uumuu.
- Using a ranged spell to destroy the Ooma from afar. This is useful when both the Ooma and Uumuu are far away and lined up.
Beware as the cores do double damage on impact. - Hitting the tentacles also shoots the core away from the core location, this can be useful if you aren't positioned high enough but are at the good vertical line||
I thought the Silksong was today and was so confused 🤡
I did it! ||Steel Soul at 101%||!
Silksong is tomorrow

58 hours in. Got every single achievement. I’d say the game is officially beaten.
megaharosh
does || the path of pain || give a percantage?
No
wth is it made for losing ur sanity 😔
Fun :)
fair ig
should I finish the ||Grimm Troupe by banishing or should I finish the ritual|| which one is better long run or for first timers
Have you beat || nightmare king grimm || yet??
nope ||only just beat the first version||
Please go beat || nkg, it is one of my fave bosses and is really worth it ||
Damn I keep misclicking smth
My bad sorry
havent even touched || godhome yet wasnt feeling to grind that much||
||Both rewards are ass, you shouldn't do it for either. Do it on what your think morally is better. (you can fight nkg later on anyway)||
|| you dont need godhome for nkg ||
If u wanna do it
|| keep collecting the flames for the grimm child charm that u used for the troupe master grimm challenge ||
Yeah that’s true
||nkg is literally my favorite boss it’s such a fun fight||
If u got || 3 flames again u can challenge nkg by equipping the charm, dream nailing him sleeping and going to the place where you fought grimm first || pretty easy to get there
||for players who just encountered him tho it will seem like a miserable boss fight||
That’s how I first felt about ||nkg||
|| radiant grimm is so peak tho, just the normal version - doesnt take alot of time and its fun ||
Me too to be honest but i instantly saw he was cool so kept going
||radiant nkg is so fun||
Too hard for me 😭 😭 😭
Just didnt have the time to do it
That’s what I thought but it only took me like 5 attempts
Good job!!!
ig I'm ready for ||P5|| lol
||Is this good for fighting the Grimm Troupe guy? I think he has more fights, and I’m struggling to fight his first one 😭. I think I got him down a good bit in my latest attempt, he did a ballon attack thing.||
Mmmm
I mean
I know I’m trash and need to lock in, but man it is hard to hit him
It’s alright
What would be better?!
I would say ||strength is good, shaman stone, grimmchild, and grubsong||
||you’re fighting regular Grimm?||
||His first battle I assume? I am bringing his child back to him?||
Ok
|| you should get more charm notches first if you want better setups ||
Yeah
she misses 1
You have ||9 out of 10||
If you had them all I would have added ||quickslash|| as well
and the other one is from ||Grimm||
Don’t I have to beat him to get that then 🤡?
Wait I thought it was ||11||
||grimm 1||
it is
Ok
|| 8 from in game 3 from start||
||Anyone know where my last one might be?|| Is it anything to do with the ||Colosseum||?
No
|| have you done trial 1 yet?||
have you done ||colo 1?||
Yes
idk then
|| mushroom fight||
No way to figure it out 😭
have you found one in the ||Fog Canyon|| ?
That’s prob the one she’s missing
Do you wanna spoiler?
have you fully explored this big square room?
I think I did, but I don’t remember, so I’m going through that area again just to check
Do you wanna go for the 112% run?
||Can Shade Soul pass through these exploding things?||
Since it’s my first play through, yes
I want to try everything
Even ||Path of Pain||
it ||blows them all up||
Just use magic to deactivate.
You can shorten the path by using ||Desolate Dive downward — you won’t take damage and you’ll land right at the end.||
I thought everyone did that, it's logical.
You can also do an ||acid skip|| in that room iirc
But that's harder than doing it normally lmao
Oh you have ||ismas tear|| nvm
whats the first boos u need to do and where is it?
can you show your map
but the best way is to explore
and you will find him
ive explored a good bit and im not sure where to go now
morally better lol wym 🤣 its not that deep is it
||Go to the big mask in the center. Also once you have enough geo buying compass + quill will be helpful||

Hi new knight
First time for everything
is it possible to unlock mouse cursor so it's not locked to center of the screen for accessibility reason?
i'd really like to buy and play it but unfortunately i can't with the way it currently is
can i get up there? how do i get outta here
alr..
i found it, i feel so stupid
should i save my credits or should i spend it at the dirtmouth shop for the map?
DEFINITELY buy the map
yeah i gotto go equip them i have no ideo what they do
which ones :D
gimme a sec
i have soul catcher
/spoiler also how do i spoil chats
||i got a mpa for evergreen||
tags
what
this too
spoiler tags like you did in the last message
alr my b
why was my thing deleted???
how do i ta a already sent messga
hey guys i have a question
Cause it needs spoiler tags
What is it 
how can i get to the area above ||joni's repose||? or is that further in the game
i had them??? they were only missing in the text, which was just saying i didn't know where to go
||for this, what is a best combo charms?||
There isnt one
wdym
Huh idk why
||do you mean Joni’s blessing?||
i use ||unbreakable strength, quickslash, shaman stone, steady body and nailmaster's glory||
not sure if i should reveal that tbh
xd
Huh?
the spoiler
I was talking to you so I’ll be careful and not spoil you
?
This guy already said
He already responded to you
ah i see, and no, ||on the map it says joni's repose||but yeah ||joni's blessing is from there||
its not exactly there, just on the way
oh yes thk
thk
like next to the ||nail master|| or in the ||dark cave||
if you never use ||spells|| you can use ||mark of pride or quick focus|| instead of ||shaman stone||
ok thk
||hit the bell and then interact with the stag station||
||what is shell?||
@olive mirage
||Spells||: for example ||vengeful spirit||
oh ok thk u
?
yes
|| Zot is so hard to kill ||
||bench pin i would say||
also, it might feel weird, but you have to spoiler ||quill|| and ||compass||
you don't need to delete it, just spoiler your messages ||like this|| and spoiler the images too
||my shade is trapped in an arena that I can't beat because I suck at the game, how can I get it back ? :(||
||u can kill ur shade then save and quit||
||omg tysm||
any charm setups for ||NKG|| first time going to fight
||unbr heart/strength/shaman|| for me are most important ||grubsong/soul catcher|| are nice to have too
I’d say ||shaman stone unbreakable strength soul catcher and grub song||
If you have ||11 charm notches||
that’s only 9
getting a 112 / all side stuff save rn is there ||not something off the cliff to the left of p5?||
||i swear i remember there being like a little alcove with like a journal entry that you could only access once||
i forget if that’s how you access ||weathered mask journal entry||
it’s around there
||wiki says you get that from all bindings so i dont think its that||
im doing the ||2nd fight so I only have 9 notches|| to use ill try to decide whichever ones sound good
For that one I'd say things like ||soul catcher/eater, quick focus, and strength||. All you can really do is hit harder and heal a bit so most don't really help
forgot what everyone said to do should I || fight or banish nkg hearing the CFM is better than the upgraded GC||
both suck quite a lot
so like
pick whichever you think is best story wise, feels better to do, or is easier
the reward sucks both ways
or if you really want to be optimal ||banishing is the quicker route so do nkg now to speed up the speedrun achievements||
I had meant ||Shade Cloak|| my bad 🤡
spoiler tag
Also thanks guys, I got my ||tenth Charm Notch|| :D
Off to fight ||Troupe Master Grimm|| once more now
My bad
Good luck :)
||I remember going in this area, and trying to leave ASAP because of those exploding bubbles. I straight up died to them eventually, and never went back lol.||
||using the compass, respect||
It worked 😂. I ||dream nailed a spirit in the Spirit’s Glade.||
I just wanted to see if I could get away with doing it lol.
If I’m not battling, I always have it on lol.
I did a second one lmao
Lowkey what if I ||dream nailed every bug|| in here 
Damn, they stay gone forever 😨
My bad
alright just fought ||NKG and it went as I expected hoped it would be more fun than trial of fools i am a fool to believe hahaha||
ur evil (i did the same)
hi, how do i go up here?
u gotta enter from the other side
how? there aren't any visible pathways to the bench that's up there
then just explore elsewhere if u cant seem to find a way to get there
If I remember correctly that's more of a "way back" from a later part of the region than an entrance
||Does anyone have any charm recommendations for fighting hk for the void heart ending?||
hello, please spoiler your message as per channel rules, thank you
Sorry bout that
send what u have
||have u found a way to get unbreakable sstrength ||
Not yet
ur missing some charms and notches but if u want to fight rn, i would go ||shaman stone, quick slash, mark of pride|| but if u prefer other charms replace however u want
||strength is extremely good though so if ur struggling u shud explore and find a way to make it unbreakable||
Tips on the || dreamer false knight? ||
Don’t kill him just don’t die
Wdym
Idk I’m type Random bs but using nail arts will make it easier
Bruh.
Dash slash is pretty helpful
Hmmm
Or you could use ||sharshadow|| because you have to dodge a lot through him
||after each stagger, u can hit his shell and dream nail / heal infinitely||
Help me
hello, please spoiler your message as per channel rules, thank you

How to ||beat the pantheon's easy||
Practice
No really
Yes really
I was being sarcastic
K
||Like, when he's staggered, you can dream nail him, then his his back, then heal once repeat until you're full health||
||which ones are u struggling on?
The first one
can u stream?
which boss r u struggling with
the last one
charms?
I have all charms except for one
what are you sing
?
what are you using
😂😂😂
no
@sharp totem Please make sure to always use spoiler tags in this channel
fuck discord switched users at the end
my bad
i hate pc discord you get it though
does anyone have a ||charm build for nkg||
depends on what charms u have
i have only 3 charms left
||weaversong, grubberfly's elegy and longnail for some reason||
u should spoiler that
also how many ||charm notches|| do u have?
oh sry lemme do
i have 11
||i used: strength, mark of pride, quickslash, steadybody, grubsong||
I used ||strength, shaman stone, and soul catcher||
||if you have 11 notches tho you can use shaman stone, strength, and quickslash||
|| how does passing of the age ending work if i do the stuff to get it can i still do other endings mainly godhome ||
yes
|| So how does it work without spoiling what happens ofc ||
Mine is cursed but proved useful for me: || grimmchild, grubsong, glowing womb, dreamshield, weaversong and dream wielder||
This build allows you to focus on dodging the attacks
|| DREAMSHIELD FOR NKG ||
||u gotta talk to mr mushroom i think hes called with spore shrrom equipped and it gives u a riddle that tells u where hes gonna be in what order||
And if you practice to dodge the attacks consistently you won’t need to worry about attacking with nail
||
||
||then talk to him in those locations in that order and u get the ending||
|| and i can still do godhome ending without it changing and stuff? ||
||yeah im pretty sure this doesnt affect anything, its llike an easter egg||
Ok
||Im back and now I need a loadout for the radiance, this is actually crazy lol||
||Quick slash mark of pride strength and whatever else for the last one||
||nail build|| brainrot
Shhh ||nail|| is best
the ||shaman shriek|| in question
maybe try something like ||quick slash + shaman + quick focus||
or ||quick slash + shaman + mark of pride||
really you just need ||quick slash + shaman||
so real
i can't stand all the ||nail build|| preachers
if you’re not using ||fury|| then you’re just a hypocrite
you said nail
at least use it well
ill try that the next time i see one
they hate that shit
then they hit you with the “you’re being elitist” and that’s checkmate bc you are being elitist
i usually just say play how you want but don't give other people bad advice
avoids the mate in 1

i use nail build :(
we mean the kind of people who run around and tell everyone that that's the only way to play
Yeah I use nail but that shi is annoying no matter what subject
Both styles are in the game for a reason
... 3 if you count the ||summoner class||
Why is nail build in spoiler?
that's like one of 10 allowed words lol
Nail
Whatevs
Damn lol
it's more just the implication that ||other combat abilities exist||
which isn't revealed
but i don't think it matters that much
Nothing happened
Yeah like if you're in this server you've at least gotten the game
True
Disney finish it tho
I can’t
there's no automod or anything
I’ve spend too much time on my save to end it,imma keep it alive by myself
You'll just get barraged with demands of spoiler tags until you do it
No, nothing
manual mod 🔥
||I've spent 100 hour on one of my files and I've spent 75 of it in path of pain and godhome||
Wait frick
Close to thousand on my file
Why the spoiler
1000 is insane
the last part
||PoP and Godhome are like hella endgame stuff||
Y’all acting like Not puting the spoiler’s gonna advance the waiting Time for ss by one month
Yeah but like
I Said it, this save is Not gonna Die
Rules r rules
I get it
But i don’t
Is it like the rules said no « g*dhome »?
Just nothing that could reveal a part of the game
if you wanna talk about the game without using spoiler tags go to #hk-discussion
the point of this channel is to help all different players
naturally that means there are a ton of new players
OOOH
Yeah i’m definitely slow
I get it

||anyways when u stagger him, u can hit his shell (not the face) , then dreamnail him and repeat. u can do this with heal as well so u can have max soul after each stagger||
||Avoid going in between them or they'll both attack at the same time. You can dnail them when mato comes for lots of soul. Spells that hir both are useful, and you can get good cyclone or shriek damage on the dive attack||
Ok thanks
what he talking about
||this dialogue refers to the grimm troupe ritual. do u recall what u interacted with in order to began the grimm troupe questline?||
yep
||brumm is basically telling u to meet him there. tho u dont have to do so, u can continue the ritual instead and ignore brumms request||
what if i dont ignore vs if i do
||if u choose to continue the ritual, just simply carry on collecting flames for grimm and itll continue as normal. if u choose to go to brumm, then u will proceed with banishing the grimm troupe as brumm suggested||
|| i lowkey i am gonna feel bad about not listening to brumm but am lowkey curious what the ritual has ||
yep its entirely up to u what u want to do here. but i will say that ||other than playstation, there are achievements for both banishing the grimm troupe and completing the ritual as normal. so u will have to do the other choice on another save file anyways if u r aiming to get all achievements||
|| does beating nightmare grimm give me a percentage ||
yea pretty much
why would i choose the other option then lol
||because the other option also gives a percent. u have to do one of the two choices in order to get a percent||
|| i mean this king grim guy lowkey tuff so the question is i go with the easy option or hard option ||
||nightmare king grimm is a very good boss fight if u r looking for good combat. but the easier option (banishment) also gives an achievement if u wanted to get that out of the way||
whats fun if i use the easy option i need a challange for myself
alsooo
in difficulty what is his rank
||top 5 hardest bosses in hollow knight probably. it can be extremely hard to adapt to his speed and attacks. tho its a super consistent boss so if u get his moves down, after which u just have to repeat the same responses to each of his attacks until hes dead||
i found his not dream version easy cuz it didnt matter if he hit me i can js heal there are alot of times to heal
this is not really the case for ||nightmare king grimm, ull immediately see why once u get hit by him once||
and much faster, so less chance for heals
there is any chance for healing against him?
||i mean maybe if i start healing and he uses the spikes attack and it doesn hit me ||
but the chances of that is like so low
|| i mean mayBE if i use quick focus ||
u should spoiler ||quick focus||
but i dont think thats such a great idea to use that charm, just go for damage
i mean why dont i js use my fragil || health and damage ||
why only damage
||u mean fragile heart and fragile strength? strength is good, heart is okay but its not worth the two notches here. if u kill the boss faster then u wont need to heal as much||
more damage = faster fight and more staggers = less mistakes and more heals
||also one more question b4 i go what do u get from the path of pain||
||its optional, u dont get anything important from path of pain||
at all?????
||i mean path of pain gives smth but it doesnt do anything. and also a bit of lore as well. but its mainly just for bragging rights imo.||
OH my lord, Why is ||Hornet Sentinel|| so hard to beat?
(Context: HK is my first Metriodvania style game)
I just can't beat her at all, keep getting her to half health and then i just die
How many times do you need to defeat ||zote the mighty|| to kill him
||Well you don't really defeat him once he dies. You just let him die to a creature, i believe in deepnest||
||You just dont save him||
Let’s just say I’m talking about smth else
Are you talking about the fight in ||dirtmouth||?
Yeah
A total of 10
Ohhh that fight
10??
I'm sorry i thought you meant gone forever
||u only need to defeat grey prince zote once for the essence reward. but there are a total of 10 fights which are optional||
Scince I|| locked myself out of pantheon ||I have nothing else to do
what exactly do u mean by that? i dont think thats possible normally
But anyone got some tips for mee? I'm kinda stuck on her
||There’s 4 keys and 5 locks||
there's ||4 locks||
Huh?
||The only real tip i got is to get rid of the spike balls, the rest of her attacks are simple enough to dodge through practice||
Alright, here goes my day practicing her
||Spa in City, Jiji in Dirtmouth, Waterways access in City and Godhome. that's it||
|| Where are the keys then?||
One is ||sold by Sly, one can be found in the big room below the City storerooms stag station, one is in Ancient Basin on the path to wings and one is in a secret room to the right of the colosseum of fools||
Oh I missed one of them
||should i start a fresh save since my last save is in dream nail territory?||
what shall i do?
wdym by ||dream nail territory||?
||resting grounds||?
How long has it been since you played
want me to screenshot my save file?
i cant remember
Oh then by all means do a new save
idk if this tells u anything
get rid of the old one?
how do i get to this lever
||go down and to the right there is an opening to go up||
can you show me a screen shot or a video
thank you
okk ty
thank you 👍
||What’s the best build for P3??||
it depends on ur playstyle and what charms u have
I have every charms
||I always make it to the end, but I usually start with 4/5 masks + no soul||
that just sounds like u mainly need to practice more
||yea, uumuu is so annoying||
||but do you know a good build?? I’m using quick slash + unbreakable strengh alr||
||i would suggest shaman stone, quick slash, strength. then for the last two notches u can either do two 1-notch charms (good 1-notch charms to consider are steady body, grubsong, nailmasters glory, dream wielder), or u can just use a 2-notch charm like spell twister. for p3 u can consider dreamwielder for uumuu if u really are struggling with uumuu, since u can get in a lot more dream nails when shes invlunerable in order to deal massive spell damage once u make her become vulnerable||
||I’m not rlly using the last charm, is it good? Not the charm but theses attacks||
||What happens if you dream nail uumuu when he’s invulnerable?||
||u get soul, thats like one of the core mechanics of dream nail||
||yea but I didnt know it works for her||
||If you're not acquainted with using arts don't force it, there some other useful 1 cost charms like dream wielder for example||
Okk ty
||so when I’m facing uumuu I can get full soul + masks?||
||uumuu dies rather quickly but i mean if u get enough dream nails off (which is quite easy with dreamwielder), and have enough time to heal then i suppose u could get quite a few heals off||
||and also u can dreamnail the ooma that uumuu spawns. this is mostly useful for after she is dead and u are waiting for the transition to hornet 2, since if there is still lingering oomas on-screen that u didnt use then u can continually dreamnail it when it floats next to a platform for free soul||
||Itried it on uumuu rn and she’s giving so much soul. Thank you 🙏||
Approximately 5 hrs
Help
Ah, a delusional true believer
memorize his attacks. I would say most of the time you should try to dodge and nail him only when you know he is vulnerable.
i forgor where this is and i want to fight it repeatedly for the ||journal entry||
||if u enter fungal wastes through forgotten crossroads, drop down the huge vertical room, then go to the left, u should find it||
you can nail him when he’s doing theses attacks. Otherwise I recommend to dodge the rest of the time
||btw thank you for your tips, now I’m getting full life + soul with uumuu and I achieved to finish it. Now lets try p4 😂🤞||
gl!
||can u upgrade the nail at Quirrel?||
Have fun
And don't worry about sucking, I couldn't beat ||vfk on my first playthrough and now I've got all achievements||
Nah I didn’t suck at the game, I just felt my last playthrough felt rushed
||just cleared hornet in greenpath||
Nice
||if I remember you go to the fungal area next?||
Understood
Imma just keep trying like I did with him the first time lmao
Always the mindset
how to do nail turnarounds and animation cancel
you equip ||quickslash||, slash, turn around, turn around to cancel the animation again to face the right way, and slash, ||the time between slashes drops down form 0.28s to 0.25s with that tech||
ye i kn that but can u tell the inputs
for more information, ask in the hk speedrun discord
wdym?
face right=>slash=>left=>right=>slash=>left=>right=>slash
and then it goes on
you might also want to ||upslash or pogo|| depending on the situation
that is when the enemy is in the right ryt?\
aight thx
you just need to get the timing, which is awful
also why r spoiler tagging upslash and pogo
because not everyone in here knows about ||pogo|| and i don't want to spoil people unnecessarily
bro that is soo stupid
there is no harm in knowing how to pogo
that aint getting spoiled
"• Aside from the words "Nail", " Soul & Focus (healing)", "Map", "Boss", "Charms", "Mask", "Geo", "Bench", and "Shop", consider everything else a spoiler"
honestly...... wtf
name of bosses and charms
also
No those are spoilers
why would names of charms and bosses be a spoiler
Everything except those things should be spoiled
why?
Relating to the game ofc
i get it
but
why names
suppose u i am new to the game
Names can be spoilers
i dont get how anyone could get spoiled by that
hi, I bought a steam account with hollow knight, but the game has already been completed there, I decided to delete the AppData\LocalLow\Team Cherry folder, the saves are gone, but the achievements are in place, is there any way to delete all achievements, make the game "clean"?
No but you don't want the moment you realise you're ||not the hollow knight|| to be spoiled for example
that is plot related
anything plot related should be spoiler tagged
imo
bro
Or ||pure vessel||
u r giving the plot
I know most people already have ||absrad|| spoiled, but that doesn't mean everyone should
How is that the plot
i meant like
And the other 2 definitely aren't
u r giving info about what u gonna hv to fight sometime
Alternatively ||hive knight implies to new players the existence of an area called the hive||
Not the new bosses
its like instead of saying hornet, sying ||hornet rematch in kingdom's edge||, that is def spoiler
You're only told the ones you already have to kill
suppose new players learnt that there is a place called the ||hive|| does it matter? its just a name
it is possible
better to get upgrades tho
everything is possible but it will be easier if you have upgrades
That name gives away the general idea of the area though
Anyway it's pointless to argue about this, just try to follow the guidelines
||Any tips for watcher knight in P4?? They are so annoying||
ig
spam and dodge
wait what
||yummy yummy grubs||
||why he ate them ||
Because existance is pain
Def getting more charms then ever
He is acting as a cocoon
i am about to fight these , the second pic is my charms, which ones should i equip to make it easier
The achievement you get is called ||metamorphosis and the charm depicts the gruberflies they will turn into||
|| so they are gonna become butterflies?||
We don't see it in game but yes
That looks pretty good
thats a pretty happy ending
Maybe go|| for twister over catcher though||
Yes I just wish it was less misleading
||Its a phenomena irl too, some bugs let their kids burrow inside their body, let the babies eat them for nutrition and act as shelter from predators||
And we actually got to see the ||gruberflies||
i wonder what happens to the || father tho ||
I've just discovered what happens to the ||farther||
I'm not sure I like it anymore
|| wait how can he be the father like does one sacrafice himself for the greater good? ||
it fascinating, ||usually its the female bugs that go through it in nature, many species of spiders and beetles do that||, so imma just call it gender equality
Good question I'm not sure
|| why cant they js be grubs they look more cute that way ||
True
i mean bro is ||letting his kids eat him for nutrition and is being a literal body shield||, can't get more fatherly protection than that
||His dream nail dialogue does say "happy" though||
ig its his insticnt after all
O doubt that's what you'd be thinking whilst getting eaten
nah, most animals in nature are pretty happy about it too, some kind of hormone is in play, cant remember the name tho
i may be exposing my irl university major with the infor dump lol
That makes sense
I can think of no better application for it
||entomologist spotted||
shhh, dont expose me lol
Your secret is safe with us
wait cant i js give my money || to the banker and get intrest ||
You can
with any amount of money i deposit?
You have to deposit at leat 2550
what if i put 4500
Even more interest
you get interest too
Should we tell them?
Don't forget to ||dream nail Marissa|| on the way to the ||pleasure house||
|| i dont like dream nailing ghost lowkey makes me feel bad ||
Don't ||dream nail her||
But +1!
u can get pls 44 in that ||ghost room||
||revek will decimate your whole bloodline||
That one is too evil even for ||marissa|| haters like me
|| u can time ur hits to block her attacks then kill everyone in the room after that u can get out and enter the room and then u can kill her without her fighting u ||
What you're describing is a war crime and we are not doing low%
|| i think after u kill all of them u unlock a secret dialogue with revek thooo ||
and dont forget || 40+ essences 🤑||
here is the dialogue btw
i will come back to fight ||mantis lords|| when i have more abilities, now they just make me cry
||she steals||
Why
What abilities do you all have
That should be enough
I have skill issues
||How did u get to them without dash and claw||
Oh those are the ones u have mb
||we going straight to city after getting the mantis claw?||
its been a minute since i last played this
||you can go here if you want but There is a boss||
||mantis lords?||
||Hall of Gods: there are many bosses who have a « dream » version, but Idk how to get them?? I have every dream bosses, but even if I alr beat some bosses with a better version like enraged guardian or hornet 2, I don’ have them… any help??||
||dream nail the statue of the normal version of whatever dream boss u r trying to face. similarly, for bosses with alternate forms such as hornet, u can hit the lever next to the statue of the normal version to switch to the alternate version||
lmao you’re right I’m so dumb
ty
||im getting stuck on mantis lords phase 2||
I wish I could do that fight for the first time again, I envy you
I know you've played before but still
which attack is giving you trouble?
Just the heal safe spots
The fight is fine
Oh you don't heal
Just bob and weave
float like a butterfly sting like a bee type sh
you can sometimes heal when they ||both do a boomerang||
the height of the attack varies though
so you have to react quickly
Oh yeah if you ||stand right in the middle of the arena during one of the two different projectile attacks|| you can dodge it completely while healing
it's somewhat luck dependent
its luck dependent yea
you just have to learn the cues by trying
healing can also let you dodge some other attacks during other bosses because of the decreased hitbox
if you have ||shape of unn||
spoiler this please
