[neat karma]

You can always just put it back on afterwards

[broken spoke]

what with the gray thing

[radiant mortar]

You have to spoil stuff

[tender jungle]

||1st phase is easy peasy, it’s just 2nd||

[robust ridge]

they're spoiler tags
you need to use them on all your messages

[radiant mortar]

That’s not true

[rough peak]

Uhh so. I beat ||p4|| first try but nothing is happening when I go to ||p5|| it just sits like that

[radiant mortar]

Go up

[robust ridge]

better to be overkill with the tags than to have to explain why so many things have to be tagged

[rough peak]

Hug

Huh*

[robust ridge]

how did you beat ||p4|| first try though that's insane

[radiant mortar]

||wall climb the wall left||

[robust ridge]

||pure vessel first try?||

[rough peak]

Shi its

Idk*

[radiant mortar]

||p4 easy||

[rough peak]

Yeah...

So

[tawdry estuary]

||Any tips for finding mask shard after soul Master (Steel Soul)||

[split wave]

||nuh uh||

[radiant mortar]

||go to the right and walk climb the wall right of the bench||

[robust ridge]

did you practice ||pure vessel|| beforehand somehow

i wouldn't be surprised if you got through the rest first try but that part's shocking

[robust ridge]

you can ||climb up on wall||

[rough peak]

No. First tey

It was kinda easy

[radiant mortar]

Yeah I sgree

[rough peak]

Had more trouble with ||sly||

[radiant mortar]

It is very easy

[robust ridge]

literally never seen anyone do that before

[radiant mortar]

Yeah same

[robust ridge]

tags

[rough peak]

Oh yeah mb

[robust ridge]

how do you only have 110 then

[radiant mortar]

What?

[robust ridge]

if you found ||p4|| so easy how come you only have 110 still

[rough peak]

Found it thanks

[radiant mortar]

||Bc I still need the mask and see the seer die?||

[radiant mortar]

Have you even played the game?

[robust ridge]

you did it without the ||9th mask||?

[robust ridge]

where is that coming from

[radiant mortar]

Yeah?

I have to

[tawdry estuary]

I have 112%

[robust ridge]

most people save ||p4|| for the last percent because it's by far the hardest

just surprising that's all

[radiant mortar]

I wanna get ||all 5 endings||

[robust ridge]

||you can still get all 5 after doing flower quest?||

wdym

[radiant mortar]

But I haven’t beaten ||p5|| bc I haven’t been playing in a while

[radiant mortar]

You can?

[robust ridge]

yeah

[radiant mortar]

My friend said you had to wait or else you couldn’t get ||all 5 endings||

[robust ridge]

probably confused about one of these two points
||1. the flower ending is triggered by giving the godseeker a flower, not finishing the quest
2. you can get a flower from the traitor's grave after finishing the quest||

[robust ridge]

nope

[radiant mortar]

So he said I had to ||beat p5 first||

[radiant mortar]

Oh just a regular one?

Does that mean ||it doesn’t break?||

[robust ridge]

a ||delicate one||

[tender jungle]

this a now or later item?

||the mask fragment||

[robust ridge]

later

[steep talon]

well done 👍

[radiant mortar]

You sure abt this @robust ridge

If you’re wrong and I can’t ||get all 5 endings|| I’m gonna sue

[robust ridge]

yes

your friend is completely misinformed about it

where did he even get that info from

[radiant mortar]

Ok I just found out

[robust ridge]

never seen that misconception before

[tender jungle]

||city of tears, here we done||

[radiant mortar]

He just didn’t want me getting 112% before him

Bc he showed me the game

[robust ridge]

you got played

rip

[radiant mortar]

Yeah

He also said that ||if I save zote I’d have to fight him anyway so I should just beat him in Brettas dream||

[robust ridge]

why not do ||seer ascension though? did he also tell you you couldn't do that?||

[radiant mortar]

Luckily I didn’t and I found out what rlly happens

[radiant mortar]

No I just didn’t know what I had left till yesterday

[robust ridge]

oh

[radiant mortar]

And I can’t play till like tmrw

[robust ridge]

||zote makes the pantheons so much harder||

it's actually such a big difference

[radiant mortar]

Ik

Wait can you get ||the flower from the dead mantis||

[robust ridge]

yeah that's what i meant by the ||traitor's grave||

it's actually even easier than doing it normally because ||it doesn't set a hardsave point when you get it so you can just quit out to a closer bench||

[tender jungle]

||i think all I have to clear is the soul master?||

[tawdry estuary]

||Should I upgrade my nail?||

[tender jungle]

||upgraded the nail onc||

[pulsar owl]

||sure||

[tawdry estuary]

||Because it buffs enemies||

[exotic field]

||It buffs the health of bosses slightly but your general damage will still kill the bosses way quicker||

[tawdry estuary]

Ok

[exotic field]

||For example, hornet has 700 health, but the third nail upgrade, which upgrades damage by 4 per hit, up from 13 damage per hit, only puts her health up by 50.||

So the upgrades scale well

[limpid ibex]

Is upgrading my nail worth it? I heard it makes some bosses harder.

[exotic field]

It increases their health but only slightly so you’ll still kill them way quicker than without the upgrade

It doesn’t make any bosses harder, just slightly scales up their health

[limpid ibex]

Oh? So I should just do it?

[exotic field]

Definitely

[robust ridge]

you forgot spoiler tags

[exotic field]

Oh yeah

[exotic field]

Why do we need spoiler tags though?

[fringe lark]

so people dont get spoiled

this channel has more new players

[exotic field]

Fake wall on the left

[exotic field]

I guess that makes sense

[robust ridge]

yeah there are new players

also spoiler tag ||nail upgrade||

great i messed up the spoiler tag with a typo but can't edit it because my wifi sucks

[mint talon]

what left 😭

[tough needle]

Hey I just got hollow knight and was wondering if anyone who is on ps would like to watch a screen share and help me throughout rhe game since I have never played a game like hollow knight before

[robust ridge]

it'll be tagged in like 2 mins just hang on

[exotic field]

Where you are about

I think

[mint talon]

nvm i foudn it

ty

[exotic field]

Awesome

[hollow bramble]

Just hop in a vc and people will join

[tough needle]

Okay

[stoic cedar]

i dont think users with the new knight role can join the vcs on this server

[tough needle]

Oh

[pallid comet]

god i havent played hk in a long time

now ss will be out in matter of weeks

[tough needle]

what do I do now then

[stoic cedar]

just wait for the new knight role to go away

[mental rampart]

Any tips for ||gpz||?

[sharp torrent]

||which attacks are the hardest for you to dodge?||

[mental rampart]

The || shockwaves and falling one, often the one where he waves his nail around can catch me off guard||

[tough needle]

yk how long?

[sharp torrent]

||when he jumps around, you want to wait as long as possible before dashing so that he locks onto a position before falling instead of chasing you during the dash. that gives you more time to jump out of the shockwave. ddark is great to become invincible for any attack, and also deal damage to him during the flail.||

[stoic cedar]

24 hrs

[tough needle]

thats awhile to wait ok

[tough needle]

⬆️

[hollow bramble]

||when he disappears into the ceiling, down spell with him, and when he starts using his nail do a max jump or fast double jump then pogo||

[queen viper]

im struggling on || watcher knights on p4 idk why but their attacks are so spammy and they have way too much health ||

[hollow bramble]

whats ur charm build

[queen viper]

|| strength quick slash mark of pride grubsong and thorns (the last 2 i had two extra slots and idk what to do with them||

[hollow bramble]

ask #speedrunning and also spoilers ahhhhh

[celest fiber]

o

[hollow bramble]

||definitely take out thorns, and replace with probably dream wielder cuz uumuu is also in p4 and also based on ur build, do u use spells often?||

[stoic cedar]

||uumuu is not in p4||

[queen viper]

|| i dont use spells much and uumuu isnt in p4 ||

[hollow bramble]

wait what

[queen viper]

hes in ||p3||

and ||p5||

[hollow bramble]

wait have i been ||doing p5 so much cuz i swear theyre right next to each other||

[hollow bramble]

anyways ||replace thorns with anything, dream wielder is still good||

[queen viper]

ok

ill use ||steady body|| instead

[hollow bramble]

||spells are very good for watcher knights cuz u can hit both at the same time, ddark is especially good for getting out of tricky situations like when they double team u and ur stuck or whatever, as well as shade cloak to get out||

anyways i can stream or send a vid if u really want

[queen viper]

ok thx

ill practice them in ||hall of gods||

[stoic cedar]

||they are, but the order of p5 bosses does not strictly follow the order of the prior pantheons. it follows it for the most part but some bosses have been moved around||

[tender jungle]

||just killed soul master, would it be best to open up mines or go back to deepnest?||

[hollow bramble]

||i would go mines||

[neat karma]

its really up to you, explore whatever place looks more appealing to you

[hollow bramble]

appealing heh

[neat karma]

interesting, important, whatever

[plucky sable]

tips for ||v2 hornet?||

[hollow bramble]

charms?

[plucky sable]

one moment

[hollow bramble]

||okay yeah u need to explore more, probably previous areas - ur missing a lot of charms and charm notches, proabbly masks and other equipment as well||

good build though

[plucky sable]

alrightyy ty

[tender jungle]

||any tips for Mawilek?||

[hollow bramble]

||3 attacks: jump should be simple enough - he jumps towards where you are and jumps back, at least thats whaat i assume it does, walking around and slashing which it gives a very obvious tell before he slashes, and the blob spray which u can simply jump over the mawlek while pogoing it, or dive and use iframes to not take damage||

[tender jungle]

Hmm

||recommended Charms?||

[hollow bramble]

well what do u have

[hollow bramble]

thats good

[tender jungle]

Does he have safe heal spots?

[mental rampart]

kinda a gamble of whether his projectiles hit you

maybe if the jump misses you you have enough or at least more time

[hollow bramble]

yup

[tender jungle]

His claws are hell

[mental rampart]

just assume he will slash after a nail hit or two

Oh alright, really sorry bout that.

||Currently stuck here, don't know how to progress cuz I can't get out of the crystal peak location so it's kinda hard...||

[neat karma]

you also need to tag the text please

[stoic stone]

||I mean you can get through there but Id suggest go get geo for the Lumafly Lantern in Dirtmouth||

If you can get out that is

[neat karma]

||the exit should be just walking left from there||

[tender jungle]

Cool

[candid nest]

||Yeah but you have to activate the stegway, which I just can't for some reason, bug?||

[neat karma]

you cannot ||use the toll becase the room is dark||

[candid nest]

well how am I supposed to ||light the room?||

||not getting the lantern|| was a mistake

[neat karma]

youll find something for that

which is ||the lantern yeah||

[candid nest]

which is?

[candid nest]

LOL but im kinda stuck now so ||can't get the lantern unless i get to dirtmouth...||

[neat karma]

||if youre on the right side of the room really all you can do is just keep exploring the place and that should get you out of there||

[candid nest]

||currently using a map and 0 exits as I see it||

[neat karma]

just keep going into the area

you cannot inmediatelly exit without ||the lantern||

[tender jungle]

||im still struggling with this Mawilek||

[neat karma]

you can always come back and do it later

[candid nest]

||getting the lantern requires dirtmouth, going to dirthmouth requires getting out, getting out requires the lantern. Kinda endless loop...||

[neat karma]

or as i literally said various times

keep progressing in the area youre in and youll find a way out

[tender jungle]

Isnt he like early game?

[neat karma]

not necessarily, it depends both on what youve found and your skill level

eitherway its not required for inmediate progression so

[neat karma]

yeah you could definitely do better, though if youre really set on doing this right now then i suggest ||replacing either mark of pride or steady body and soul catcher for shaman, and use desolate dive as it does a great amount of damage, while also giving you iframes||

[mental rampart]

prob ||shamans|| over ||mop|| also spoiler second image

[neat karma]

i hate discord their spoiler feature sucks so much i geniunely cannot tell when somethings tagged or not

[tender jungle]

Better?

[mental rampart]

is ||sprintmaster/dashmaster|| any good against ||gpz? dude is just so big and so fast i feel like it wouldnt be a waste||

||also is there any method to the madness of his spawns? like whether they are flying or grounded or do i just have to never stand beneath them? and his slam attacks whether they are real or the fall from the sky one||

||and his nail swing whether it will be real or one of those instant trips||

[hollow bramble]

yeah hes one of the most random bosses

[celest fiber]

I literally cant get out i went everywhere on the right unless im tripping

[neat karma]

||i assume you get to the bottom and theres a locked door and nowhere else to go right||

[celest fiber]

my left is locked,
i go to the right and i can go up, but its also locked
i can also go down after going right some more, which doesnt lead anywhere but the ||statue with the girl talking to me, but i cant go after her (top right)||

[tender jungle]

||apparently your meant to do Mawilek for mask fragment||

[neat karma]

yeah what i thought

[celest fiber]

me?

[neat karma]

||once youre in the the bottom of the city (aka the level the statue is at, youll find an elevator like two rooms left of the statue||

||halfway up, or down seeing as youll be coming from above, theres a platform you can jump onto||

[neat karma]

thats the reward yes

[tender jungle]

U sure I’m meant to do this later?

[celest fiber]

this way?

||i found an item at the top, i thought this lead nowhere?||

[neat karma]

i never said you were meant to do it later, or earlier, theres no given order to stuff in this game, you do it whenever you want and whenever you are able to

[neat karma]

keep going right

[mental rampart]

||elevator to the left, deeper into city to the right||

[celest fiber]

wait, this isnt it? i dont remember seeing this actually

[neat karma]

thats the way

[celest fiber]

ah kk ty yall

[celest fiber]

somebody explain the lore behind this tree to me

[full hedge]

Dream nail

That’s all I know

[celest fiber]

lool

i wish there was a main quest line i could follow instead of this dark souls stuff, i get its cool for others but its just not for me, i want difficult platforming and bossfights, but im enjoying myself so far

but.. im just lost as hell now, where should I go (in terms of objectives before final boss), so far I unlocked ||wall cling and dash, killed the 3 mantises, and explored a bit||

this is my map rn

[full hedge]

Ahhh alright so you don’t have the ||dreamers|| on your map
Uhhh you need to get to ||resting grounds||

[celest fiber]

oh and ive ||upgraded my nail||

i dont see resting grounds on my map

[stoic cedar]

hello, please spoiler your message as per channel rules, thank you.

[full hedge]

Oh fish thank you for reminding me

[runic loom]

i think my game is glitched or im missing something

[tranquil oriole]

explain

[celest fiber]

when am i supposed to have an actual hard boss fight?

[runic loom]

||ive unlocked the grimm stuff and the tent, spoke to the leader to initiate the quest and i was told there was meant to be 3 flames on my map, i havent got amy||

[celest fiber]

@full hedge could u DM me like some main goals i should do before doing final boss, or would that be too long of a message? im just so lost lmao
i can google how to get to those areas, u can make it short and simple

[runic loom]

||the first hard fight that i had was the broken vessel||

[tranquil elm]

||you need to equip grim child to be able to see the flames and collect them||

[celest fiber]

kk ill keep an eye out

[tranquil oriole]

you have to have the ||charm|| equipped

[runic loom]

ahhhhhhh

i see

thank you both

[tranquil oriole]

good luck

[runic loom]

idk why i didnt think of that smh

[tranquil elm]

good luck!

[runic loom]

i heard the boss fight is meant to be one of the hardest so ill probably need it

[full hedge]

Yeah of course I can

[celest fiber]

tyty

[still copper]

Spoiler please

[thick wing]

what?

gng i started less than 30mins ago

[still copper]

Put a spoiler on the photo

[thick wing]

oh ok

how

[still copper]

Edit the message there should be a way to put spoilers on photos

Also, in order to beat that guy, you need to visit the ||Ancestral Mound||

Talk to the NPC there

[thick wing]

[final grove]

My recollection is that this area is supposed to be pitch black until ||you get a lantern from some shop|| but I can see without that. My only mod is an ultrawide fix, maybe that's causing it for some reason? Or am I just forgetting, I haven't played for many years.

Okay so it is bugged/from the ultrawide mod, thanks. That's unfortunate.

[neat karma]

I believe its just further ||in the room where you access a dark area, not there||

[final grove]

Where the ||miniboss arena|| is? That would be great, I'll go further in and test it, thanks :)

[robust ridge]

you're still quite far away from being able to get it

[tender jungle]

||also opened up sewers for later||

||and I’m trying to do Mawilek with spell twister,shaman and steady body||

[lime valve]

to get 112%, do I need to get ||the hunter's mark|| or something?

[oblique pulsar]

I don’t think so

But maybe

[stoic cedar]

no

[lime valve]

thank god

I DID NOT wanna kill every single creature just to get those bragging rights

[stoic cedar]

||hunters mark is required for an achievement tho, if u care about getting all the achievements||

[still copper]

Are the ||Trials at the Colosseum|| required for 100% the game? I'm going for the ||Steel Soul|| achievement and don't want to do anything I don't have to

[neat karma]

They ||do give percentage, but since the max is 112 if you dont want to do trials you can do something else and it will still add up||

[tender jungle]

⬆️?

[neat karma]

||godhome doesnt sound like the best idea but its actually one of the safest since you cannot die in the dream realm,, mostly||

[tawny sapphire]

Do the ||pantheons instead||

[still copper]

Where can I see what all gives percentage? Is it on the wiki?

[neat karma]

Dont rush it, take your time and try to learn how to evade attacks, you can ||pogo and dash over mawlek to avoid some attacks, and make use of dive a lot, if not for direct damage, to avoid attacks as youre invincible when going down||

[tawny sapphire]

||do get greed. Hit him once or twice and back off. If he jumps move from you position. If he shoots a lot of infection jump over him to the other side, if you don’t have many upgrades right now it’s worth waiting till you get them to make the fight easier||

[neat karma]

Probably, ||really most stuff gives percent, charms, abilities, trials, pantheons, the grimm troupe update quests, sutprisingly not notches but those are still good to get, getting 2400 essence and talking to seer||

[tawny sapphire]

Take off ||compass and steady body||

[neat karma]

Bestie they dont ||have compass on||

[tawny sapphire]

I should go have breakfast before coming here

[neat karma]

Eitherway i propose the option again to come back later, even if you ||do kill it, nothing really will happen as you still would need another shard for it to do anything||

So its just going at the same thing over and over again for a reward that wont really do much at the time

[rich vine]

Can I see your map?

[royal crow]

Yea let me open the game

[rich vine]

Did you get something from|| Hornet?||

[hollow bramble]

yes ||kings mark||

[royal crow]

Yep

[rich vine]

What does it say?

That's your hint

[royal crow]

Ok but that doesn’t ||open the void things directly unless your talking about the white palace which I already did||

[rich vine]

Not quite, but it ||does open a door to get that somewhere old....||

Smh why didn’t I think of that

[tawdry estuary]

||I BEAT STEEL SOUL IN UNDER 8 HOURS||

GG

UNDER 7 HOURS

Wait...

I got no Achievements

[hollow bramble]

||iirc theres no achievements for both time limit and steelsoul||

let me check

[hollow bramble]

||yeah theres only beat the game and 100% and then beat the game steel soul||

[eager shore]

There isn't)

There should be 2 achievements, ||steel soul and 100% steel soul||

[tawdry estuary]

I got none 🙁

[hollow bramble]

u might already have it

[tawdry estuary]

Maybe somehow

Plus I did it in 6 Hours 42 Minutes

And also got no speedrun achievement

[last sail]

What charms should I use for ||nosk||

[jade sedge]

||Did you watch to the end of the credits||

[last sail]

Nvm I beat him

[tawdry estuary]

Yes

Do I have to beat || Radiance? ||

[hollow bramble]

||for a different ending||

[tawdry estuary]

Ok I got it on a different save

[near crater]

What are the best essence sources to get to 1800 to unlock ||white palace||? I tried to beat ||soul tyrant|| and keep failing forever....

[tranquil oriole]

||lost kin, the harder version of broken vessel|| is a big chunk

400

[near crater]

Thanks! I need like 480.... so another suggestion or two (in case I already did some) would be nice

[tranquil oriole]

||lost kin, white defender, grey prince zote, soul tyrant, failed champion|| all give 300 or more

[tawdry estuary]

THERE'S NO ACHIEVEMENTS FOR PLAYSTATION

[tranquil oriole]

yes there are

[near crater]

And sorry for the kinda noob question there - I played HK most of the way through a couple years ago but didn't do a lot of the late game stuff.... and now that Silksong is coming out I feel a time pressure to complete more 😅

[tranquil oriole]

don’t worry about it

play the game at your own pace :D

[near crater]

I kinda relaxed when I got credits the first time... now I have to pick it up and it actually feels hard again

[tawdry estuary]

I mean the || Speedruns and Steel Souls ||

[tranquil oriole]

right

ps has different achievements

and a lot less

[tawdry estuary]

That means I'm 1 away from platinum

[dull ermine]

I just got the game. Any tips or important stuff I should know before diving in?

[hollow bramble]

go into it blind, do not watch any spoilers, the only thing i will tell you is that you can hold down and attack since it isnt intuitive

[tranquil oriole]

use the map, it’s very good for blind exploration

[dull ermine]

Will do! Thanks 😄

[coarse nest]

I finally did it

||oro and mato attuned||

In ||hog||
Time to get ||P1||

||spell spammer learns to use full nail build. Qs, mop, strength, sbody||

[tranquil oriole]

holy

[hollow bramble]

+1 nail user

[tranquil oriole]

-1 not hybrid user

-10 calls something a ||full nail build, doesn’t have fury||

[coarse nest]

I'm missing a ||notch so can't use it with qs mop strength||

[tranquil oriole]

understandable

[hollow bramble]

yeah ima be honest ||its just cuz i need mark of pride as a crutch so now i cant take it off, and qslash and strength is too strong so i never got around to replacing mop with shaman||

[tranquil oriole]

i would wean yourself off of ||mop and on to longnail||

the hitbox reduction isn’t as big as the sprite reduction, and it gives you enough room for another ||3 notcher||

[hollow bramble]

but then no ||steady body|| 😔

[coarse nest]

This is ||my first time using mop lol||

Never got around to ||mantis lords until I beat thk, now I'm going for 100%||

[hollow bramble]

anyways, ||i beat p5 so theres no excuse for me to switch to shaman again||

[coarse nest]

It's hurt me as well as helped me cuz I was used to not having it on, I realised I'm ||not really using narts as much so I replaced nmg with sbody for a bit, turns out it was helpful||

The only sad part is ||how small shade soul is without shaman, it looks so tiny||

[tranquil oriole]

also like

the huge damage loss

[coarse nest]

Eh
Style more imp

[tranquil oriole]

fair ig

[coarse nest]

||I'm trying to get pantheon clears to hit 100%, I'm on 99 rn||

Definitely easier ways to ||hit 100%, but I wanna do it in style||

[tender jungle]

||am I supposed to get D Dash at this point in the game?||

[coarse nest]

At what point?

[tranquil oriole]

what is ||ddash||

i know about ||ddive and ddark, and downdashing with dashmaster||

are you talking about one of those?

[tender jungle]

||like I have c dash and that||

[tender jungle]

||ddive||

[tranquil oriole]

that’s pretty normal yes

a lot of people get to ||cdash|| by using that

[coarse nest]

I did it

||P1, 100%||

[nimble merlin]

hey I'm doing ||p3 full bindings|| and either get stuck at ||collector or zote||, any tips?

[stoic cedar]

hello, please spoiler ur message as per channel rules, thank you.

[nimble merlin]

oh sorry

[tender jungle]

||so I am supposed to get ddive?||

[tranquil oriole]

idk if supposed to is the word i would use

it’s one of the ways to get another one of the ways to do something required

it’s a game that gives a lot of freedom to the player, so there’s no right way to progress really

outside of a few required things, but those are more explicit

[tender jungle]

||but im struggling to get ddive||

[tranquil oriole]

i thought you had it

[mental rampart]

can you not fight ||radiance|| in the ||hall of gods until you fight him in p5?||

[tender jungle]

||i dont||

[tranquil oriole]

ok well you don’t “need” it

if you want to, you can

[nimble merlin]

yeah, kinda sucks but feels great when u get it

[tranquil oriole]

it’s a good thing

[mental rampart]

will ||hog radiance always be absrad or will attuned be normal radiance||

[tender jungle]

||then what am I supposed to do?||

[nimble merlin]

Its always ||p5 radience|| but there are mods to fix that if u do mods

[mental rampart]

also god thats miserable that to get any good practice you need to either ||fight thk every time for less meaningful practice or slog through p5 every time for a chance of practice||

[hollow bramble]

||just killed soul master = you have dive||

[mental rampart]

whats the name?

[tender jungle]

||im talking about its upgrad||

[tranquil oriole]

if you can’t get it yet don’t get it yet

[nimble merlin]

I forget, lol, haven't looked at mods in a while

[tranquil oriole]

remember where it is and come back later

[mental rampart]

ill look into it i guess, if you remember lmk

[nimble merlin]

alr

[tender jungle]

So where to?

[velvet flower]

||hello, i was in the path of pain and i got the kings soul mask and it teleported me outside again, but i didnt get to the famous path of pain part what do i do now?||

[tranquil oriole]

you can go back in

it’s hidden

[velvet flower]

where tho, i saw a walkthrough video and he doesnt go back in, also when i go back in some areas have white barriers

[tranquil oriole]

after you go up the ||elevator in the main atrium and take the first transition upward, there’s a breakable wall immediately to the left||

good luck!

[velvet flower]

do you mean here?

oh nvm i found it thank you very much!! ^^

[tranquil oriole]

[mental rampart]

||how is nail sage slys last phase supposed to work? i get the rest but im struggling to not get hit let alone get hits in without getting hit||

[nimble merlin]

||what I normally do is when he dashes toward me and stop, signalling he is about to do his spin attack, I dash away and wait just out side of it so the moment he goes out of it, I can get a hit on him. Another tip is to stay away from corners during that phase and try to use as many spells as you can||

[mental rampart]

like i usually have enough health to just tank it and burst him down but doesnt feel good

[nimble merlin]

Thats just me tho

[velvet flower]

||is doin the path of pain necessary 🥀 i am stuck on the first part 😭 ||

[tender jungle]

||am I supposed to do sewers after mines?||

[nimble merlin]

No it is not, its just a ||parkour course thats meant to challenge you. nearly broke my keyboard beating it lol||

[velvet flower]

||i got the mask so what do i do now||

[nimble merlin]

||hang on, what mask?||

[velvet flower]

||kings soul||

[tawny sapphire]

is not in ||Path of Pain||

[nimble merlin]

||Oh. Do you have the other half?||

[velvet flower]

yep i know im just askin as in ||i think i have unlocked one ending where i just beat the vessel, and now i got the mask so what do i do now to get the other engings/ending||

[velvet flower]

yep

[tawny sapphire]

you get ||King Soul||

go through normal ||White Palace||

[velvet flower]

i diddd

[nimble merlin]

||ok. Now you go to the abyss. Go to the bottom in the floor should open up||

[tawny sapphire]

it should have been at the end

[velvet flower]

||im sorry if i sound rude i am tryin to beat the path of pain while typin 🥀 ||
||what i wanted to ask is does beating this challenge give some other ending? or does it not matter whether i beat it or not?||

[nimble merlin]

No

Does not matter if u beat it or not

[tawny sapphire]

no it doesn't it's there to challenge yourself when you 100% the game

[velvet flower]

so are there only 2 endings?

[nimble merlin]

||No, 6||

[velvet flower]

???

oh what

[tawny sapphire]

5 iirc

[nimble merlin]

||I count Mr. mushroom||

Mb lol

[tawny sapphire]

that's 10

cause that applies to ||every ending||

[nimble merlin]

||no as like his own separate thing||

[tawny sapphire]

eh sure

[nimble merlin]

Mb for making it complicated, lets just keep it at ||5 endings|| lol

[tawny sapphire]

sure

[velvet flower]

oh wow

[nimble merlin]

||but yeah, basically, there are 3 endings in the main hk arena and 2 with the pantheons, specifically pantheon 5 or pantheon of hollownest||

[velvet flower]

||so can anyone tell me in breif what these are||

[velvet flower]

arena?

[nimble merlin]

Sure

[nimble merlin]

||like the boss room for thk||

[velvet flower]

understandable

||so the 1st ending is when i beat the vessel without kings soul and take his place
than 2nd and 3rd?||

[tranquil oriole]

holy

i check back in this channel and all i see is correct information

gg

[nimble merlin]

||2nd ending: you kill the thing behind the orange goop that has corrupted the kingdom.
Ending 3: hornet lets you get in to the area to kill the thing causing the infection but if you just wait she’ll go in a coma/die. You finish the fight with thk and become the vessel but with hornet in the arean, she becomes a dreamer, sealing you both away|| lemme know if you want ||ending 4 and 5||

[velvet flower]

oh understandable thank you very much! ^^

[nimble merlin]

Np ✌️

[tender jungle]

(Because I don’t have a clue)

[hollow bramble]

firstly, spoilers, secondly, whenever u dont know what to do fill out ur map

[nimble merlin]

||collector on full bings p3 is actually stumping me, any tips?||

[ionic bluff]

||how do i get through the dark parts of deepnest?, ive been dying back and forth for an hour in here||

||do i just have to rail through it?||

[nimble merlin]

||did you buy the lumfly lantern from sly? If not then definitely do that||

||I also had no idea it existed for a good while when I first played it lol||

[ionic bluff]

do i respond in spoilers

[nimble merlin]

Oh yeah, you gotta put spoilers for anything game related cuz some people might not wanna get spoiled

[ionic bluff]

mm

do i delete my first message

[nimble merlin]

That or edit it

Up to u

[ionic bluff]

there we go

alright so

[ionic bluff]

||where is this||

[nimble merlin]

||If you save sly back in forgotten crossroads (you can save him whenever) then he will return to dirtmouth and re-open his shop, where you can find the lantern||

[ionic bluff]

||thats kinda far||

[nimble merlin]

||do u have any stags that might make it easier?||

[ionic bluff]

||yes actually, thanks||

||for the stag reminder and the shop||

[nimble merlin]

Np :)

[nimble merlin]

Please tho, ||collector|| starting to pmo 😭😭

[tawny sapphire]

I haven't done ||AB|| so no 😭

[nimble merlin]

Damn 😭 thanks tho

[stoic cedar]

||cyclone slash spam. All of p3ab collectors adds die to one cyclone hit. U can easily clear 2 or even all 3 of the adds per wave with one cyclone slash||

[nimble merlin]

Ah kk thanks

[stoic cedar]

||also a couple other tips for ab collector. U should always go for a shriek when collector jumps over u if u have the soul. U should also dream nail collector during its stagger to get free soul, after which u can heal or shriek as mentioned before||

[nimble merlin]

Greatly apriciate this, u have no idea

[ionic bluff]

||is there a stag around here?||

[tawny sapphire]

far left of the area yes

[ionic bluff]

||i assume its gonna be hard to reach without a lantern?||

[tranquil oriole]

yes

[tawny sapphire]

yeah

[tranquil oriole]

so much so that i would say don’t do that

there’s a very nice way to get out without doing all that

keep checking doorways you haven’t explored

[buoyant vale]

||I need help with crystal Guardian||

[nimble merlin]

||good strat for him is to just pogo him when he goes to beam you and then hit him when he isn’t beaming. Ignore hitting him if he triggers the lazers all over the arena||

[tranquil oriole]

^ another tip i would give is that ||dashing and using vengeful spirit both stall you in the air, so if you he shoots a laser along the ground you can hop up and wait it out productively that way||

slashing sideways also does damage then, but it’s a little tighter

[trim minnow]

are these all the ||smaller bubble|| I can get ie the ones you get through getting ||soul vessel fragments||? or is there one more to get?

[tranquil oriole]

there is one more

[trim minnow]

and that counts towarsds ||112|| right

[tranquil oriole]

yes

[trim minnow]

ah shii

[tranquil oriole]

good luck!

[dull ermine]

I found a super dark area that it looks like I could explore. Should I go ahead or will I need the light later?

[trim minnow]

with silksong coming up, I need to complete the game

[trim minnow]

you will definitely need light

[tranquil oriole]

not definitely, but yes

get light

i have a friend who told me they almost quit the game entirely bc they thought ||the dark area was required without a light||

they did the entire area

i still don’t know how

[nimble merlin]

Oh damn tf?

Thats insane

[trim minnow]

that's like crazy gamer mode

[nimble merlin]

Fr

[tranquil oriole]

he’s determined for sure 😭

no guide, no youtube, nothing

blind in both ways

[trim minnow]

ok that's psychopathic to say the least

[tranquil oriole]

[trim minnow]

btw, I remember someone talking about some ||journal|| which you can use to know how many ||bossess and other stuff you have killed in game||. what's the name of that thingy?

||some journal of smth||

[tranquil oriole]

||the hunter’s journal||

[trim minnow]

alr, ima get that rn

[tranquil oriole]

yay

[trim minnow]

could someone give me a link of a video showing where the ||hunter|| is located?

I can't find anything on azalea's yt

[hollow bramble]

oh come on, u dont need a guide for that

[trim minnow]

i dunno where he at though

[nimble merlin]

||It’s in green path near where u first see hornet, I think||

[trim minnow]

that was a long time ago

[nimble merlin]

||definitely in greenpath tho||

[trim minnow]

could you just red mark it on the map or smth

[nimble merlin]

K hang on

[tranquil oriole]

[trim minnow]

thx a ton

[nimble merlin]

Np :)

[exotic terrace]

Hey i have a question. I played hollow knight on PC and keyboard. Do you think it is a good idea to buy a controller for silksong?

[tranquil oriole]

do you want to speedrun the game?

[nimble merlin]

Up to u, Ima stick with playing keyboard

[tranquil oriole]

or do difficult things

like challenge runs

[nimble merlin]

Chat, I used keyboard and speedran the game in 2 hours on the dot while also fooling around a bit in said speedrun

[tranquil oriole]

keyboard is more precise for that sort of thing, but hk was designed with controller in mind so i wouldn’t be surprised if silksong followed suit

[dull ermine]

There are little metal statue things around the map that give strike energy. Do those give map complete or anything? I don't necessarily want to hit them if i am full on soul

[tranquil oriole]

if you care about that sort of thing

[exotic terrace]

Not competitively but yeah. I had a lot of fun doing speedruns of hollow knight for achievements

[nimble merlin]

No

[tranquil oriole]

i guess the only reason to play on controller would be if you have muscle memory with controller

i’ll be playing on controller but i kinda wish i wasn’t

[dull ermine]

Thanks

[tranquil oriole]

oh well

[nimble merlin]

I normally play on controller with other games but for some reason when it came to hollow knight, I found it very uncomfortable to use controller and just wouldn’t perform as well as I would on a keyboard

Donno why

[tranquil oriole]

makes sense tbh

i remember struggling at first

[exotic terrace]

That is the main reason i want to get a controller. I think it will be better with hornet's more acrobatic style of Gameplay

[tranquil oriole]

now i’m pretty good at hk with a controller but there’s a lot of limitations compared to what keyboard can do

controller has like 2 advantages and keyboard has a workaround for one of them

[buoyant vale]

I know you guys are a lil crazy , so how many times do I have to hit the ||Crystal Guardian|| with the ||vengeful spirit|| for it to die?

[tranquil oriole]

oh shit

do you have the ||charm called “shaman stone”|| equipped

also i love prefacing that question with “i know you guys are a lil crazy”

that’s hilarious

[nimble merlin]

omg lmao uhhhh not really sure

Sorry

[tranquil oriole]

i can answer the question, i just need this ^ information

[tawny sapphire]

19 without ||Shaman||
10 with ||Shaman||
this is not accounting for ||nail swings||

[buoyant vale]

Yes I do, sorry for the delay, my cat broke a vase

[tranquil oriole]

rip

in that case it takes 14

[tawny sapphire]

280/30=9.6 i.e 10 hits how'd you get 14

unless I have my damage numbers wrong

[buoyant vale]

I got ||6 notches|| , I have ||grub song, shaman stone,and soul catcher||

[tranquil oriole]

||vs shaman|| does 20

[velvet flower]

||POP PMO||

[tawny sapphire]

Yeah I had my damage numbers wrong

[buoyant vale]

I'm scared of this dude, more scared of him than any other enemy

[velvet flower]

of who

[nimble merlin]

You don’t have to beat it if u don’t wanna

You can leave

[velvet flower]

but i wannaaaaaaaa

the thing is im stuck on the starting area 🥀

[nimble merlin]

||Ok then ur gonna get pissed off. The starting area is light compared to other areas of it||

Not to sound rude

[velvet flower]

?????????????????

[buoyant vale]

||crystal Guardian||. Ik he ain't necessary,but I want to

[velvet flower]

||you just gotta grind through it and remember his attack patterns 👍 ||

[buoyant vale]

Stupid question,but I got ||shop keepers key|| who do I give it to

[tranquil oriole]

it’s a grind, but you can do it

it’s just a matter of determination

[tranquil oriole]

do you know anyone who ||keeps a shop?||

maybe someone who looks like the ||key||

[buoyant vale]

Got it

[warped hound]

Am i ment to fight ||soul master||

[short kettle]

Yes, sooner or later.

[warped hound]

Cause im at him and i got murked

In like 3 seconds

[short kettle]

Totally normal experience.

[warped hound]

Ok

[daring willow]

No??? ||The first section is pretty universally considered the second hardest||

[nimble merlin]

||Really? I found it second easiest. Guess it’s just more of your opinion. Last 3 rooms were actual torture for me compared to the first 2||

[warped hound]

I beat him but now im lost gang

[tranquil oriole]

of ||pop||???

if so, that’s just wrong

the community loves to talk about room 4, and lots of them have a substantial issue with room 3 too

[nimble merlin]

Ok so I’m not crazy

[tranquil oriole]

you are definitely not crazy

[buoyant vale]

Ok I have ||7 notches|| , I am using ||shaman, grub song, soul catcher, and sprint master||

Is that good for||crystal Guardian||

[acoustic sigil]

No I'd say generally people find the first and last room the hardest

Or I should say checkpoint

As the 2nd part of the first room is literally free

[tranquil oriole]

i’ve never heard room 1 before

[acoustic sigil]

[acoustic sigil]

Should be fine, idk what other charms you have to know what would be better

[steep talon]

☹️

Choom

Cyberpunk reference?

[timid osprey]

||Guys I'm new to this game, is the summoner class viable at all in this game? I heard it's kinda bad||

[acoustic sigil]

It's not that great no, but you can make anything in this game work if you want

[nimble merlin]

Wdym by ||summoner class?||

[buoyant vale]

No, I have a cat, and I like keeping flowers in my house

[steep talon]

lol, that was a separate observation to the user called choom haha

[sharp hemlock]

||weaverlings, grimmchild snd glowing womb probsbly||

[nimble merlin]

Ohh mk

[tranquil oriole]

my username has been choombert for a while, friends shortened it to choom, and now lots of people talk to me about cyberpunk

makes a great conversation topic

[nimble merlin]

||is collector more aggressive in the pantheon because istg he never tried to actually hit you this much||

[shy reef]

||my first try on the less than 5 hour achievement and i feel like im not gonna be able to beat thk in time I NEED SOME TIPS PLEASE||

[shy reef]

i can barely reach that part of the fight lol

[remote hearth]

I did tho? o3o

[nimble merlin]

The photo isn’t showing up as a spoiler for me :|

[remote hearth]

dang sorry about that

I'll just delete it

[shy reef]

it was spoiler tagged

for me at least

[remote hearth]

hows that?

[simple island]

that is tagged indeed

[nimble merlin]

Maybe its an ishme then lol

[remote hearth]

How did I end up there? I was|| going to godhome||

[simple island]

its like a 2% chance

[wary linden]

can someone pls help with one issue with hollow knight? pls
I'm trying to ejecute the game from steam, but doesn't work. Like I ejecute but the system says that cannot be ejecuted. I have played the game before, like 3 years ago, and I would like to play again, but I cannot. Anyone knows how to solve this issue?

[simple island]

random secret

can you post like the specific error you are getting ?

I have a feeling as to what the issue would be but seeing the error would probably confirm that suspision

[wary linden]

give me a minute

[vocal cairn]

im not sure i want silksong to come out after fighting the character for the first time

[limpid ibex]

Best build for elder hu?

[wary linden]

it says: hollow_knight.exe doesn`t respond

[simple island]

thats it ? darn

[wary linden]

yeah

[simple island]

well, two things to try

1. verify the game files

2. downpatch to patch 1.4.3.2

[wary linden]

i verify and they are all right

[simple island]

downpatching may help if your computer is a 32 bit system, and not 64

[wary linden]

is a 64 one

[simple island]

hmm

[wary linden]

is very strange dude

[simple island]

youve tried like restarting your pc and doing a full reinstall ?

[wary linden]

i uninstalled the game like 3 times and then reinstall it and doesn`t work

[simple island]

downpatching may still help in case your system is actually not 64 bit, and it is very easy to do so like, might as well

?tag steambeta

[languid radish]

No tag steambeta found.

[wary linden]

and how can i do it?

[simple island]

?tag steambetas

[languid radish]

Verify that you are using the correct installer and patch!

• For normal modding you should use a current patch installer (such as Lumafly or Scarab) and you must have Steam Betas set to "None"
  • Pirated copies / Unofficial ports are not supported
• Modding on 1.4.3.2 using "Mod Installer" / "Mod Installer 2" is no longer supported.
• 1.2.2.1 Modding does not have an installer.
  • You can type ?tag 1221 for info on it.

How to check your Steam Beta options:

[spare elbow]

||whats the strat to kill this guy, or am i not meant to?||

[simple island]

you do that and select 1.4

[wary linden]

ok i will try it

thanks ma

[simple island]

you go near them, wait t'il they open, get a hit, and dash away

||spells also hit through their shield||

[steep talon]

i couldve sworn it was 20 and 6-

[slim solstice]

hello, i have questions about 2 choices (and possibly more i can't think of right now). does letting ||zote|| die and banishing the ||grimm troupe|| lead to less %? or is it the same? and do i have to fight them in the pantheon anyway?

[vernal mist]

should i?

[urban forge]

You only drop a ||maximum of 3000 geo and you get a soul vessel fragment in return||

[vernal mist]

then not rn

[urban forge]

Probably not

[vernal mist]

ight

[urban forge]

||Zotes questlime does not give percent||

And if ||he dies, he won't be in the pantheons||

[tranquil elm]

How many times should I try to beat ||pv in hall of gods ||before I attempt ||p4? I only beat them for the first time just now||

[urban forge]

Either a few times in a row or on ||ascended probably||

||Alternatively you can just attempt the pantheon until you get it but that might take longer||

[slim solstice]

wow that's actually crazy. thank you. what about nkg?

[urban forge]

||still no percent but nkg is in the pantheons regardless||

[slim solstice]

thx

[urban forge]

||You can also save Zote and still not have to fight him in the pantheons if you just never unlock the gpz fight||

[slim solstice]

ah ok

with unlock you mean never using the ||dream nail on the statue33, right? or is having the option to ||dream nail|| it already considered "unlocking"?

[urban forge]

I'm not actually sure, gimme a sec I'll Google it

[tranquil elm]

Thank you very much! Then I’ll try to beat them 3-4 times in a row first, and then maybe try || ascended|| after to improve my consistency

[urban forge]

||Defeating him is what causes him to be in godhome||

[slim solstice]

yeah thx. just read it as well. sorry for asking questions that were already in the wiki, i forget how dedicated the fandom is

Wait || I just searched and ascended does double damage maybe I won’t try that before I beat p4 then||

[urban forge]

Don't worry, it can be hard to find certain pieces of info on the wiki

[slim solstice]

yeah i looked on the ||gpz|| page instead of ||pantheon of the sage|| and didn't find it there

[urban forge]

Tbh by the point that you can do it 4 times in a row, that shouldn't be too difficult

It's one of the fights that's very difficult until you learn it's patterns and then you can very consistently avoid getting hit

[tranquil elm]

||it’s just I’m using a cheesy healing build so I won’t be able to heal back on ascended if I get hit as frequently as I do now, I currently just beat it 3 times in a row so I think I’ll just try more times on attuned only||

[urban forge]

If you can do 3, you should be good for the|| pantheon||

[eager shore]

Guys, this may be random, but can someone advise me good build for beating ||P5||? I still have no idea how to beat ||Markoth with platforms||

[pulsar owl]

||for markoth use grubberfly elegy||

[urban forge]

||quickslash, shaman, strength and any two notch combo||

[vernal mist]

||where is the skill in crystal peak located?||

[urban forge]

I use ||spell twister but sbody, grubsong and nmg are also good||

Up, up left, down left

Basically||go right to the top, across a bit and then down||

[eager shore]

I think I understand, thanks!

[urban forge]

||Elegy|| is only really good for ||radiant|| and not worth it to slightly help with only one fight in the entire||pantheon||

[paper atlas]

My lappy overheats when I play hk

[pulsar owl]

||I mean you can change your build at the benches so I think it is worth it||

[paper atlas]

Even tho I can play other games pretty easily it overheat at hk

I cant even change the resolution settings

[urban forge]

True but that's the same section as ||nkg|| who is much harder

[pulsar owl]

Yeah you are right

[eager shore]

I do so yet rarily

[paper atlas]

Anyone got Any solution?

[urban forge]

If it has vents on the bottom, elevating it helps

Hk specific though idk

[acoustic sigil]

Maybe do a big cleaning, removing the dust

[paper atlas]

Yeah i just did . And weirdly i can run spider man remastered at 2k res at 88 90 temps

But hk idk how heats cpu to 92-93

[wary linden]

i cant run hk anyone can help pls?

i tried everything and doesn`t work

[urban forge]

What are you trying to run it on?

[wary linden]

im trying to run hollow knight trough steam

[urban forge]

Is it a system problem?

[wary linden]

i dont know

[urban forge]

What happens when you try?

[wary linden]

it says: hollow_knight.exe doesn`t respond

[urban forge]

How well can you run other games?

[wary linden]

the thing is that i already pplayed hollow knight in this pc like 3 years ago

but now doesn`t work

[urban forge]

Tbh my knowledge on this subject is very limited, other than maybe restart your computer, I don't have any ideas

[wary linden]

i restart ir already but doesn`t work

but thanks anyways

[burnt oar]

[cobalt rapids]

[cobalt rapids]

general rule of thumb, if u think u can't do something, explore the other unexplored places

[thick wing]

[sage depot]

[sudden prairie]

[grim bay]

||Absrad or just P5 in general I haven’t played in 6 months and I never beat P5||

[sudden prairie]

u didnt need to reply 😭

[urban forge]

Pogo

||You can use dive for safe damage and try to stay pogoing by using wings before the teleport and dashing to where she appears||

[spare elbow]

well i dont see any other way out of there

[sudden prairie]

4th phase is the phase on the platforms

[urban forge]

Yes ik

Oh you mean that one on the platforms

[sudden prairie]

ye

[urban forge]

||Stay to the bottom three and wait for her to come to you, when she does, if it's nails dodge then shriek as much as you can or spam up nail, same for lasers, use dive for orbs and for the wall like attacks, attack her and then dodge when they reach you before continuing to attack||

You can also use ||d-dark for the nails if you don't have time to react||

Does that help?

[spare elbow]

can someone help with this?

[limpid ibex]

Hi yall, I'm trying to calculate the geo earnings I'm getting from a farm I found, but I cant figure out the formula - i get 112 geo a run, and each run is 45 seconds

[urban forge]

I think getting ||Hera|| is the only way to leave

[spare elbow]

||hera?|| whats that

[urban forge]

112/45 for geo/second

[royal vine]

can anyone help me progress hollow knight im kind of early game and lost like i have NO idea what to do

[limpid ibex]

Dang thanks 😭 its midnight where I am and I'm exhausted. To be clear, once I get that answer I multiply it for 60 for minutes, then that by 60 for hours?

[spare elbow]

[urban forge]

Wait for it's mask to open, hit it then ||dash away||

[spare elbow]

ah i see

[urban forge]

Nice

[sudden prairie]

how do i lead the orbs to strike the platforms

[urban forge]

||Stand on a platform either with a platform between you and absrad or dodge just before it hits ulyou so it hits the platform instead||

[robust ridge]

Are you guys talking about ||absrad||

[urban forge]

||Also be warned that the orbs are invincible for a few seconds after spawning so can go through platforms if they live only just spawned||

[urban forge]

Yes

They wanted help with plats

[robust ridge]

@sudden prairie this might help #hk-help message

||there's a section for each phase||
