do you need ||dash ability|| to defeat ||brooding mawlek||
Not that I knwo of
that discussion isn't for this channel 
or this server even
though i agree with that, #hk-help is not for sharing opinions or harassing other people, whatever the reason is
I do agree with you on principle, I'm just tired of online spaces getting filled with that kind of shit. And ig I'm just, out of fucks to give with keeping shtum about it
Like it's just, deplorable
Wdym
Yes, go back to ||sanctum||
||crystal pit and tram thingy||
Okay! Thx!
They have nothing to do with each other i don’T think
Anyone knows where next?
If you look you can see that there isn’t any obvious connection points, still amazing theory tho!
||look around for places to use your ability. Pay attention to the floor||
😭
Like i guess I'm at a point where I can't be bothered pretending I don't have a problem with them until they change their behaviors, because that behavior is unacceptable.
But I'll let it drop because it's fair that this isn't the place for a long discussion ab it
I did, that’s where it got me
Just explore, use your new abilities wherever
look around more
awe shit I fell down
I did, came in the chat as a last resort since I didn’t find anything
:(
||They do, actually||
i didnt wnna
Wait what
Can you tell I just got the|| tram pass||
||grounds has a tram||
||I’ve literally only been to Kingdom’s Edge with it||
I hear shaking floor never mind
Thanks!
Oh yeah
||you just unlocked an ability, go find where you can use it||
by ||dash ability|| i mean ||vengeful cloak||
No
how do i beat him
uhh guys whats happening to me rn?
I did that on my first playthrough actually lol, it was like the first thing I did in the game XD
It sucked
||I feel like im dreaming and those 3 big black beasts are on me||
Lolol have fun XD
so i just started fighting ||nightmare king grimm|| and i cant find almost any openings to hit him
NAWWWW
were u talking to me
Yes
typically I fight him later in the game. it's much easier with ||mark of pride|| that you can get from ||mantis lords||
that's normal. This fight is known for taking like 30 minutes until you don't die in the first second anymore
ah ic
Oh god that's not something I can like explain by text really
please don't mention things they might not know
Well I can try ig
gotcha, i thought it would be fine with spoilers, but I'll make sure to be more careful in the future

no
awe
it does something else that's neat for combat tho
- ||spike floor: stand in safety and fireball! If no soul, wait, then dash in for a hit||
- ||dive and dash: jump above him and pogo his head once, then land||
- ||fire bats: jump up and dash forward between the bats, smack 3 times||
- ||fire pillars: walk slowly towards him while avoiding the pillars. After the fourth, upslash or shriek||
- ||dash and jump: smack once as he dashes in, then stand still, the fire will miss you!||
- ||balloon: not worth going for hits here, maybe a fireball if youre confident||
how do i blur my chat with the spoiler thing

?tag spoilers
🔹 Ensure Discord’s spoiler tagging is used around spoilers (People, Places, and Things should be spoiler tagged!! if you are confused, please see the pins for what is allowed ).
We do this to be considerate of multiple conversations taking place. Two vertical bars on either side of text will tag it as a spoiler - ||This is a spoiler.|| > ||This is a spoiler.|| Alternatively, adding /spoiler at the start of a message will tag it.
🔹 If you have sent an untagged message, you must either edit it to include spoiler tags or delete it.
how can I get to ||monomon without shade cloak or tear? Preferrably no QGA||
what does the ||warrior dream|| do
is it like a splitting path story wise?
can I redo it?
you can't
what charms do i use?
im on a time crunch because speedrun 2
Whatever you like tbh
thanks
guyszzzz
.
.
||they are bosses who give you essence on defeat||
(also btw I am allowing myself to ||altf4 so qga is viable since if I get down to 1 mask or something I can reload and try again||)
||well you can do an easier cdash skip in crossroads||
I cant answer that without saying too much imo
farmable???
where
No
||guys i just unlocked the dream nail and idk it just feels like im not supposed this looks like an endgame stuff and i only have 7 charms, like 6 boss beaten and not even the thing to see in the dark so am i lost ooooor is it normal||
||connection between crossroads and fog canyon||
and does this skip allow me to get to ||monomon without tear or qga?||
||I saw somewhere that there are different dreams or something||
can I challenge him later?
Pretty normal, there's not a strict order to certain things
its kinda late and im not in my best shape should I challenge him?
You can ||refight if you fail||
WAIT OMG I WAS GETTING THAT ROOM CONFUSED WITH ||QGA|| BC BOTH ARE ||CRYSTAL DASH SKIPS||
Yes
||if you are able to get something, you are supposed to be able to get it. You can get something earlier than usual or later than usual, but not too early. Dream nail pretty much unlocks the main story progression. Getting it is not endgame content. It's pretty much the start of the main game content||
oh and chosing to fight him wont do much lorewise, only if I beat him no?
There is ||lore if you beat them||
aight thx
||it's a lot easier. You just enter the room and walk left. You should then perfectly drop above the acid onto the wall. If you immediately cdash you got it||
||what does the dream nail do combat-wise?||
||hit someone and find out||
||you can use it to get more soul. i personally use this on failed champion because hitting it doesnt give you soul||
||how to beat radiance||
||lock in||
this needs tags :(
How do I even do that
I reccomend just taking a break when youre struggling on a boss though, there are certain tricks and better charm sets you can use (||sharp shadow and strength i reccomend||) but practice makes perfect 💥💥

he has the ||balloon attack?||
Im p sure
it happens once he reaches 75%, 50% and 25% hp
Unless I'm dumb
Ye
mb 🙏 I wasn't aware
||which ones should I buy? Already bought 2 mask shards||
Just beat || god tamer in trial of fool first try(on her atleast) ||
i got to the attack where ||he turns into a bat but there wasnt a balloon after that||
it's alright. Just make sure to not mention any spoilers in the future 
You can always just ask to see their inventory/map if you're unsure
That's a stagger
||lantern|| is great
yes of course!! thanks for letting me know
||probably lumafly||
Yeah I planned on that now that I see the price, what is ||vessel fragment||?
yall play hk with sound?
Staggers happen by hit count, not health
its illegal to play without, music is too peak
hm I think figuring out things like that on your own is more fun. If you really wanna know I can tell you of course
does playin with mods disable achievments?
i meant|| the charm will BREAK IF I EQUIP IT||
no
I DIED IN ||CRYSTAL|| WHILE TRYING TO GET ||DESCENDING DARK||
happens 
Yeah I wanna know… it will save me some geo farming
||then dont equip it twinn||
hm :/ i didnt get the ||zote|| achievement
||getting 3 vessel fragments will give you a tiny bit of additional vessel to store soul. It's 33% of the main one additionally but it will take more hits to fill up||
you need to hit it
Thanks
why cant i join vc
Newbie rules
How to get ||doublejump||?
how long does that take
||progress the game and youll find out soon enough!!!||
i just need help for the last boss
Just spoil me gng
the true one
wha-... Did I just get an ||ability upgrade or sumn||
why is my ||downwards ability now black... ||
im gonna search it and see how then
never 👽
||mark of pride and longnail are both terrible for radiance. Spells are extremely powerful especially for this fight so I recommend shaman stone, twister, catcher, grubsong, steady body or instead of twister and steady body/grubsong you can use quick focus||
||reach ancient basin with crystal dash ||
ok
Its ||more powerful now! Also lore||
hmm interesting
||so if its black its more powerful then light=bad. We dont like light||
||WE LIKE BIG BLACK-||
||I BEAT THE WARRIOR DREAM||
just 20 essense?
oh 100
mb
so like did I do smn good or bad by killing him?
||good||
||I'on got a tram pass so what is my purpose down there||
||This just permanently gives me strength?||
Shrug
||Buy it and find out||
This channel should not be for checking your every step
Go play the game and experience it
Use this channel if you find yourself significantly stuck and you need help
||You have upgraded it, it now does more damage!||
holyy shit what is this area this guy is invincible
it also has bigger hitboxes and an additional one
Oh yeah that too
||I got to some red guardian thing and i keep hitting him and hes still alive where tf am I||
and he aint even a boss hes jusst a regular
nah I went down
wya
||there was this lift and to the left there was this one red dude holdign a shield and hes taking dmg but hes huge and invincible and down the lift theres like a largeeee glass wall on the left||
Ohhhh

||im back in the city now||
Have fun

|| if you hit his head when he is not shielded then he takes damage||
I reccomend ||nail bouncing|| if you are stuck on them but otherwise gl lmao
man thanks for the advice abt ||spells and stuff||
I was SO close to beating ||radiant||
What are u the channels manager
If you want to ruin the experience of a game that is based around exploration and discovery by just cheating youself out of that at every turn, then at that point, just use the wiki.
That's not the purpose of the channel
But like
Why do u care so much
What the fuck would u care if I wanna ruin my experience
Empathy?
U don’t like my question then oh ignore it, some ppl helping me
Because not only are people cheating themselves out of experiencing my favorite game properly, which I don't want - because I think the experience is great as intended; people are also flooding the channel asking for answers about every small thing that they don't actually need help about
Brother I’m just Tryna save myself some time not geo farming after wasting it on stuff I don’t need that’s it
And I have fomo while playing games with massive exploration so I ask a lot of questions
Since I experienced many games where I found out about something really important only at end game
hey guts im stuck there and i cant go up and down its just an other close area there is no escape 
||you need to do a precise walljump||
🦖
🦖
ive beentrying for like an hour is it really possible ?
i dont
parry the spikes
to go up
true true
I dont think thats possible
Then explore thoroughly! An experience where you miss some things and go back after finishing is better than an experience where you didnt find things on your own
you wouldn't make it up high enough
Yes, but, dont
they dont
anika this is your alt I think

my alt is "suscat"
just a similar name

look at my discord join date 💥
|| guys what build to beat p3 zote ||
I don't think so
please use tags in this channel ||like this||
I assume you have got everything?
||strength, shaman, qslash, sbody, grubsong/glory is what I'd use||
anika you need to add nqn
it's very important
|| ok, cuz the only boss i really struggle with in p3 is zote, even if i beat him ill die later to sly cuz i lost too many masks on zote ||
||I'd practice both sly and zote in that case||
and the charm build I mentioned is also viable for both
hmm ok
btw
@shut sparrow
|| tips for 100% hunter journal? ||
hmm
how many are you missing?
idk for certain but its like 50-60
can you see the amount you have in your inventory?
so
yes i think
but you're not currently playing the game?
how did you beat the game with this many missing?? I only had like around 5-10 to do by the time I got to finishing it
maybe im just a cold blooded killer
😭
|| idk ill just be honest with you my type of gameplay is parkour, i beat PoP in 50mins without dying while i took 2hrs on normal grimm ||
how do I know if a wall is breakable
||also are you talking about completing the entries or finding the missing enemies?
For completion you just like, kill them. You can see which ones they are so it shouldn't be too bad.
For missing ones it should only be like 10 max so I can send you a list if you want||
completing entries
it's not that bad 😭
||you try to break it and if it doesnt its not breakable||
||itll have slight cracks in it that are hard to notice||
just kidding. ||theyre kind of cracked, theyre hard to see||
ty
||so the problem is remembering where the enemy you see in the entry was?||
I am in the first zone still
but not trying to miss out on too many things
I know when the game start there was secret room in back
a lot of the fun is finding new stuff when revisting areas so i wouldnt worry too much
just make me owner and I do it imo
would you like my complete advice on that achievement
|| nah its just i need to kill the same enemy so many times and i want to be sure if i actually need to complete all the entries like that, all this for the platinum ||

alr
its just "kill"
not exactly
it doesn't give any %. It's just for one achievement and it isn't the platinum
i need it for the platinum tho
well I don't know how playstation achievements work too well
ill show u tmrw
ah ok
well
then you need to do it ig
yeah

yeah 

🐺
hola, alguien que hable español y pueda ayudarme porfavor?
Generally how far into the game is ||fighting the broken vessel in ancient basin?||
|| u will get a special ability by winning that fight, its mid-late game id say ||

mimmimimi
Add me on clash lowkey
9.5k
||dream shield dmg is = nail dmg right?||
||yes but you don't get any soul for dream shield damage||
Alr that's fine
Grrr THOSE things
How tf do i beat 2nd hornet
learn her attacks and dodge well
Damn the ||soul master|| is truly a pain ☠️ i just met him
He's not too hard once you get used to him
||I can’t beat the dang watcher knights😭 i’m on my third play through I think(I’ve played it a lot more, but I never finish the file) any tips on how to beat the watcher knights? I got rid of the one with the secret ceiling.||
|| Dash hit twice, repeat plus use DD ||
Also Spoiler Tags
How?
U put || on both sides of the text
And then it becomes ||this||
Pogo a lot and use ||desolate dive|| a lot
Should I get ||descending dark?||
Remember when in doubt use ||desolate dive||
If u want too its rly good
maybe u should but i dont think u rlly need it
YET
It’s not too hard to get so theres no downside
Ik
Im an hk addict I just suck at ||watcher knights|| and I’m doing a new play through cause silksong in 10 days
|| thats true, but still theres no stag in crystal peaks so alot of time waste for no reason ||
Just have patience
I can’t relate unfortunately
||There is in resting grounds, so you only have to go to Crystal peaks||
|| i went for all the upgrades i could before most bosses, i beat watcher knights first try cuz i was overpowered so no, i dont have patience for the runbacks, bossfights or anything ||
U could use the ||dirt mouth elevator||
Become a monk and learn patience
never
Yeah
Go 5 minutes without a screen
|| im with 110% main file rn cuz i cant bother trying p3 ||
Youll get there eventually
|| grey prince zote always gets me, even tho i practice him everyday ||
Pray to the RNG gods and team cherry
true
|| i spent less time beating path of pain than learning grey prince zote || @languid sentinel
Thats slightly concerning
true
i took 50mins
|| in path of pain ||
Honestly jist start a new save and dont save ||zote||
Damn it took me 5 hours
i might do that
i had the right build and didnt die once, and im really good at parkour
not at bossfights tho...
Im bad at everything j havent played the game in like 30 years
game hasnt been out for 30 years 😭✌️
ik ur ironic
I started a new save file how do I get || moth wing cloak||
Beat ||hornet||
Ok
Or wait Thats the thing that lets u ||dash|| right
I’m just better at platforming so same
he has to fight || false knight || tho
real
How hard is ||White Palace|| compared to other optional challenges? The fact that I still haven't completed it is still haunting me and I really want to put it to rest
it's juts quite time-consuming
not necessarily hard
as long as you're using an ||infinite healing build||
what are those white orb shining things on the ground called? its not souls cause when i picked one up i got a || dash ability ||
It’s not bad and a lot of fun
Huh?
||essence?||
Where are you in the game?
||that white orb thing that u r describing is just representing an item. in ur case it was mothwing cloak, the item that allows u to dash. but it can be some other item depending on where u picked it up from.||
this
Oh it’s just an item
im asking because when i was exploring around this area i notice there was another one that looked just like it but i couldnt get to it before, now im trying to remember where it is again.
Yeah there are items all over the place. Seems like you are using your marks that’s awesome. Be sure to put them in places or items that you think you can get to later
And I think the item you are talking about is in the room under the left marker
i sadly started using them late :(
btw regarding || dash, when will i get the vertical dash? is it the next boss or further more?||
Don’t worry about that
And don’t look stuff up either. You did good asking here. This game is best played blind without the help of guides and stuff.
Also, if you haven’t been picking up items, I’d say comb over the areas you’ve been and see if you missed anything, plus there may be a few things that you couldn’t get to before that you now can

Is there a bug on switch that forces you to face to the right sometimes?
For some reason like 20% I’m forced to face right
I might have drift chat 💔
Or it’s just my fault idk
I beat || hornet first try tho ||
Ty I did it first try
Uhh ur welcome? I said 2 words
hello I have question
I understand this game have 4 expansions. Will I encounter these while playing the story or after I beat?
hi
While playing
alr cool
They aren’t really expansions theyre kinda just updates
oh
how you 115%? that even possible?
Skill
ye
you very skill
Thank you

Is there anything important in the || lake of unn||
Yes
this one seem cool
I don’t see anything
That one is cool
yeee
Look later
Do I need || c dash?||
these updates add new zone?
You fight this guy and then have a kid
rizz
No
Real
any advice for fighting ||Grey Prince Zote||? my problems are most of his move set, ||his leaping (i dash away from where he lands, but get caught by the shockwave anyway, and dashing earlier tends to cause me to get sat on), his aerial sword swing (if near a corner i sometimes have to dash through but he turns around midair and smacks me during that dash), and when he flails his sword around he can immediately pancake against the ground (so pogoing is very hard even with mark of pride, is pogoing the wrong answer?)||
parry
isn't that a 2 frame window?
do not do this, terrible idea and not necessary on ||gpz||
||it does, if you attack at the exact time an enemy does, that frame of the hitbox is disabled, works for some quicker attacks, but nothing that lingers||
||Yeah, but the timings are crazy||
||I just beat dung defender on my steel soul run and went to the spot to fight white defender but he isn't there, at what point does he spawn?||
||after u kill all three dreamers||
Aight ty
Does hollow knight have PvP I want to parry @tiny spear
there are mods for that
||for his leaping, dash only if u see his trajectory is going to land directly on u. a lot of the times u can simply walk out of the way of where he jumps to. then u can side slash him and at the same time jump over the resulting shockwave when he lands. for the nail slam attack (the one where he goes up into the air, has a chance of doing a juke move, and slams down), u should wait until gpz commits to a side before committing to the other side of him to avoid his nail swing. for his flail u can simply just jump over him and pogo once u see the telegraph for the flail. if u r too close to him, dash out of the way before jumping up for the pogo. and if he immediately falls over instead of going for the flail, simply just stall in the air a bit longer to stall out the resulting shockwave||
should i just buy this first or save enough for the ||lumafly lantern which cost 1800 geo?||
Depends what your planning on using the key for
Also if your struggling to get geo buy gathering swarm in that shop
two follow-up questions about ||the flail attack||. ||i can pogo no problem when he is standing up, but he falls over at random times causing my pogo to miss and i end up either taking contact damage or dmg from the shockwave, is there some kind of sign when he is about to fall over that i didn't notice?|| also ||he can sometimes stagger while i pogo and since he flies up when staggered, i take contact dmg. is there a way to mitigate that?||
||idk i thought it would come handy when i see a door and its locked? ||
I would probably buy the ||lantern||first if you don’t even know what your going to use the ||key|| for
both are solid choices, i would wait until you need one or the other to decide.
Yea actually do this instead
||do we unlock more notch slot soon? im kinda contempt with the wayward and the soul charm for now might replace wayward for boss fights later on tho if i find myself struggling ||
I don’t remember how to unlock those sorry
we don't know exactly how far you are, but the answer is likely ||yes||. keep exploring!
ive just gotten my first || dash spell||
This op? Will I one shot boss?
yes
Can someone help explain to me how to proceed in this area? I noticed ||the area up to the left of the warriors dream||, but can't seem to figure out how to get there
ty
The || cloak?||
||dash|| or ||spell|| or both?
that area doesnt have much
You can get || nail art in that area|| that’s all I know though tbh
it has ||gorb, a charm, the stag nest vessel fragment, a nail art, and the start of the grimm troupe||
this one
yea
||This is tied to a sidequest. You'll eventually get there naturally if you don't use skips||
||dash isnt a spell, it doesn't use soul, there are only ||||4|||| spells counting focus||
alright
||go back to the start|| if you don't know how to do that yet, can you show us your inventory
||yes, there are more notches you can get. just look around a bit||
||just found a red thing, grimm troupe is what im guessing it is?||
||you have the needed item take a look at your map and think of all the ways you might be able to get onto that big ledge||
alrighty
oops, i misunderstood something but ||you still do have the required item|| ||forget what i said about the ledge||
||there is not really a sign when he is going to fall over. so what i would suggest is pogo him 3 or 4 times (which is mostly safe), or even 5 times if gpz starts the flail really close to u, then wings to stall a bit if u feel like to then ddark. as for the stagger problem, u can either count hits to try to ddark on the hit he is going to stagger, or if u r pogoing high enough then u can sometimes dodge him when he staggers. another alternative is to do the pogo dash method, where u basically pogo on gpz, dash out of the way, then go back for another pogo if hes still in his flail. this method gives u good time to react to his falling over while still dealing okay damage. or if u dont want to think about all of that, the safest way would be to wall jump and camp a wall until he falls over, tho ofc u dont get much damage off during the flail if u do this so its mostly just a trade off of damage for guaranteed safety||
i have attached a reference vid of each strat
this is awesome! thanks so much for the help!
I almost die to the || gruz mother… ||how cooked am I?
btw is this enterable because it looks close up
nope it isnt
Ty
but theres a house to the right that is
idk if u realised that yet
u should spoiler ||gruz mother||
I see
yes iirc
nothing important though
||you need to kill menderbug, he can spawn at the start of forgotten crossroads if the sign there is broken (he will fix it)||
thx
You need future upgrade for this section
-# also spoiler tag pls
ah what should i do/where should i go now
Just explore previous areas and see where you can go now with your current upgrades
and is this part even explorable?
Yes, ||there’s an item there that could be a bit tricky to get but I think you can with a few tries||
the dash?
Yes, you need that for this part
i have it
but its still very hard
and i hate the fact that i have to search up a tutorial for every boss i encounter
Watch Untitled by Eclipzeez and millions of other Hollow Knight videos on Medal. Tags: #hollowknight, #hollowknightplatformermetroidvania
how do u beat this guy
please spoiler tag the link as the embed is showing spoilers
if you look back at your video, ||when you hit them, they get knocked back. you can use this to your advantage||
ye i noticed
||Contiuously punch them when they’re charging, you can also jump to the elevated part on the right to heal since they can’t hit you||
just do this on its ||charging attack||
is there anything you don't have a video for? or are you making these on the fly
yea im recording them on the fly
Woaw you’re the best
You can’t right now
come back later
yo new place
Nice
||u can pogo on the enemies moving across the acid to get a bit further in that room||
i have no idea where my soul is
can u help me out
just go back to where u died
i died here
it should be around that area. ||the shade usually doesnt spawn exactly on where u died, but u can listen for the shade music to figure out where it is||
this black barrier is blocking
||what am i missing i got the achievement||
idk send a video
||u already got all the required journal entries. all u need to do is figure out which journal entry doesnt have enough kills||
its actually gone
deadass
yup im cooked
its not even showing up on the map
do you see it on the map? if you see the icon, but can't locate it, ||there is someone who can help retrieve your shade to the east of the starting town. for a price.||
Did you die a 2nd time
Stuck here. Hint perhaps?
you'll have to come back later
where??!!
Your ||shade|| needs to be roaming around for you to do it tho
ah
||there is a locked door all the way to the east, past the well, you will need a key to enter||
get the ||mantis claw||
Thanks
for now, i guess it is, but eventually it won't be.
Depends on what stage of the game you're in. I've lost 11k and 10k before
||i just entered fog canyon||
Then yeah 2k is a decent amount
should i just quit
You mean the game entirely?
of course not, there are plenty of ways to get more geo. you don't have to buy out all the shops right now, just get the items you need when you need them

|| when I beat the false knight a bug detached from the mace and ran away ||
how to find it?
||You cant find it anymore after leaving the room, its just a small easter egg/detail||
||im so cooked please tell me godhome chalenges arent required for 112%||

||room under storerooms stag, go to the right side||
||why is absrad locked behind gates until you get to it in p5 thats so bad wasting almost an hour to get there just to die to absrad||
||is there any mod that lets me fight absrad without getting to her in p5||
no

|| Can somebody give me tips for mantis lords|| ☝️🤓
|| lost kin has how many staggers? ||
Like 3 I believe
hp dependent or random?
Hp dependant in my experience
Seemed pretty consistent when I was fighting him
||Google says it’s just dependant on how many hits you land, not on his hp, so a weaker nail/no strength charm would need more compared to strength charms and a stronger nail||
||Not quite random, like I said it’s about how many hits you land, you need a stronger nail/fragile strength equipped for less staggers||
||bc it’s a dream fight, fragile strength doesn’t break when you die||
It would be, I’d recommend just going back later
||any tips for pantheon 5? specifically for markoth, sly and uumuu||
guys I need some help
|| in the watchers spire ||
|| there's a weirdly shaped wall while going to collect the grub guarded by a husk ||
|| it feels like it's a door ||
|| how do I open it ||
So I did shade skip after getting claw and dash into blue lake to grab dream nail early then went to city and died in the arena room right after entering in but my bench is back at salubra so how should I reclaim my shade as I have 1k geo
||how do i add absrad to custom pantheon||
|| go to jiji in the dirtmouth right side you'll need a simple key to open the door and pay a rancid egg to the npc inside ||
it's mod i think you just use lumafly
i know
whats the boss file name thing
so i can add it
|| abyss shreik spam for uumuu, MoP will cheese sly cause reach. markoth is cancr , so try spamming spells for phase 2 ||
i did ||gg_absolute_radiance||
yup

I shall try that
||Ok so abyss shriek definitely helped, problem now is I have no soul to get through phase 2 😭||
Hello, all images and text of in game content need to be spoilered as per channel rules. Please delete this image and resend it spoilered, and edit all unspoilered text to be spoilered.
Just put || on both sides of the text
oh okay
For future reference, this channel is for unmodded help. U should be using #1057825333841240104 instead
For images I believe it’s slightly different
does timer continue when on pause screen
Dependant on if your on mobile or desktop
No
thank god
oh ok
|| keep dodging till the rad comes to centre platforms, upswing spam and ddark spam||
if u enter boss with max soul, u can skip whole phase 1 with correct build
I do enter with max soul, it’s so easy to just farm soul off ||hollow knight||
Is ||radiance|| considered harder than ||NKG|| bc he took me an hour and a half to beat
no
Ok so if I can do him then I can do ||radiance||
not even close imo
I enjoyed the ||NKG|| fight a lot lowkey
One of my favourite ones in the game so far
yea its one of the best ones
||i literally cannot find it||
||my fav is godhome mantis lords and nkg ||
I really liked ||mantis lords|| I’m hoping there’s like a more difficult version I’m assuming that’s the ||godhome|| one
ye
its 3 at a time
instead of 2
- the boss ost is peak
does ||defender crest|| make ||fluke nest|| do ||less damage?||
||D Crest just makes Flukes worse, I would never pair the two,,,||
But bro I lost all my geo
You don't need Geo,,,
Yes I need an egg which I need a key for which I have no geo
||Why do you need a key for an egg, if you meant that you haven't opened JiJi's door, then you can say that pretty easily,,,||
I thought this was implied
It is, I'm just being an ass 
Though ||you don't need a key for an egg,,, you need a key for JiJi, who isn't an egg,,,,||
Zote is cooler than you
This says a lot
What charms should I use for ||the radiance||
What charms do you have unlocked
||What charms do you have and how many notches||
All of them
||I have every notch and charm||
||Strength, Shaman, Q Slash, Spell Twister||
Ok thats good thats what I've been using
||Id suggest a heavy soul focused build to spam shrieks like shaman stone quick slash spell twister soul eater||
And then like, ||G Song|| or some shit 
im looking for a friend that could help me. im kinda lost atm
just ask here.
Where are you 
||I just died when the radiance when the radiance was going to third faze||
hello i’ve progress pretty far without buying the simple key should i get it before the elegant key ?
Please edit your message with spoiler tags
They both lead to something useful
forgiveness
depend on you playstyle
||i play nail only so for me its qs, mop, str and some random others like sprintmaster etc
if u want spell build, shaman, soul eater, soul twister ||
Whats more difficult ||dream bosses or colloseum lv3||?
Just a question but once I beat the final boss does it start a new run immediately or am I free to do whatever and I can start that new run whenever?
you still have access to your save
there’s no ng+ system in this game so you can just load the save again
how do i make photos spoilers ?
Am doing pantheon four who is the unlit one because I beat the final boss already in the egg I am using mods and am wondering if it is a bug possibly
where is my shade ?
Either jiji or die again😭
||the charm that makes ur nail shoot slashes actually makes it weaker lol||
that's not the final boss
i can come up with a vague hint if you want
yep though so 😭😭
Yes I would appreciate that very much🙏
where did you die?
Ok this is ridiculous
?
the main boss of a western zone
requires most if not all movement abilities to reach
Nice pfp tho lol
could just be through here
i think he's talking about your shared pfp
Hmm okay perfect I’ll check it out thank you
gng why do i find ||trial of the fool|| harder than ||nkg|| radiant aaaahhhhh
hello, please spoiler your message as per channel rules, thank you.
how is it spoiling anything 😭
?tag whyspoilers
🔹 Spoiler tags are mandatory in https://discord.com/channels/283467363729408000/349116318865424384 in order to prevent newer players from getting spoiled by help that was given to more advanced players. It’s not recommended to click tags not specifically meant for you - you never know what they contain.
🔹 Please see the pinned messages to see what is allowed and what is not
🔹 A large amount of players do not watch trailers or check achievements before playing, thus content in trailers, Steam page, achievement names, etc. is still considered a spoiler.
i was fighting the ghost dude that u challenge
u need to spoiler ||hornet||. and im simply informing of the channel rules. if u dont agree with those rules then u dont have to interact with this channel.
how do i see the % ingame? i need to end game once?
||u need to go to the black egg and read the thing near the bench||
how much ||geo is fountain donation? if i put extra, do i get refund? ||
3k and u cant do more than that
My blood boils when this happens
||where was shreik again? i made it to abyss upgrade room but forgot shreik
||
||im 6 hrs in and shadow cloak||

so i just beat ||nightmare king grimm||, what ||nail level|| should i have had for him?
Preferably the highest but if you already did it then it doesn't change anything i guess?
The difference between ||highest and before highest isn’t the most significant ||
But usually people have the highest
i have it ||upgraded 2 times||
Ok that is surprisingly low
cant find any ||pale ores||
guy?
hello everybody, im new to hollow knight and its so frustrating sometimes cuz i dont know where the flip to go 💔
Whenever youre lost a good tip is to ||look at your map, the holes in the sides of rooms are places you havent visited, go to them and use the pins you can buy in dirtmouth to mark the ones that look most important but you cant access yet||
|| where should i go after i beat the boss of city of tears||
What i said above applies aswell
ive done that but then its the constant loop of, "oh i have to have another ability" to access the area further
Yeah thats kinda how metroidvanias work, you need to go back to places after youve gotten new stuff
Anyway if youre really really stuck and that method didnt work you can always ask here as long as you use spoiler tags on ingame content
ill just lock in and find something 💔
what areas have you explored rn ? they are intentionally placed in ||late game ish areas and you won't find any in the beginning areas||
but none are that well hidden
Yep! But there is always an area that you can explore. I recommend using map pins on places you can't go yet, you can try color coding them, but without knowing what ability you need that's more of a guess.
how many have you found yet?
not sure how far into the game you are, but the early game is more linear and uses that more, at some point you can kinda go wherever you want
how do i use pins tho, i bought them
what do you play on?
pc
keyboard?
I saw a crapton of images being sent without text, fyi tehyre auto deleted to prevent a certain scam method
yes
have you changed your key binds yet?
to suit you
or are they default
ive changed the attack and dash thingy
so when you open map
also open full map by pressing inventory button, and then just swipping, you'll find it
Or double pressing the map button
that works too
ahhh i got it, thank you!!
Hi everyone by the way
and for pins, you'll have to buy them incase you haven't bought them
YOOOOO
how do i know if ive fully explored an area, cuz i think ive gone everywhere in this one area and the only areas i couldnt reach, i needed osme kind of ability
Can you send a picture of your map?
idk what area im at i tried searching lobster boss but got nothing
explore more, you'll find something useful to beat it
Hello! If it seems that you can't go somewhere, that is usually the case. You're missing an ability required to progress through here for now
where do i go tho
howfar are you ingame?
nicee
how do u get a map
explore more, you'll find it
why did my image get deleted
just 2, one in the ||colloseum|| and one from the ||lady at resting grounds||
it's because it was a 'spoiler'
Hello! No this is not how we do this hete
how is that a spoiler 😭
Cornifer
?tag uncspoilers
🔹 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.
huh?
these guys take spoilers as serious as if their life depends on it
^
||i suggest you buy markers in dirtmouth and mark the places you cant access, that way youll know when youve visited all the area can offer, the less important ones if you feel there are some, can be reused for other areas||
does this game even have a story what is there to spoil
i just started playing so
Both story and gameplay, people care about both
it does have a story... a lot, that's why it's so loved
yea there is lore
gameplay is fun i still have no idea what this game is trying to tell
hmm i think there's around 5 (i maybe wrong)
@sly ridge please use spoiler tags for all ingame content in this chat. Read the message im replying to aswell
Yeah its kinda cryptic initially
o sorry
eh it's like history, you gotta dig it up and piece it together,
But anyway yeah, on games obviously i dont want a story spoiled, but i also like figuring stuff by myself, beibg amazed at new areas and bosses if the game has those
good luck trying to find out what it means and tells
|| okay so i feel so lost cuz i feel like i explored everything, i found some black barriers / lasers i couldnt walk through but thats it ||
right now i killed all the ||dreamers|| so im just exploring every region and i hope im gonna find some ||pale ores|| so i can finally ||upgrade the nail||
it doesn't seem like you actually got an answer, I think you want to continue on exploring ||fungal waste||
A hint on where to go, you should explore ||fungal||
Along that
||there is still useful stuff on dirtmouth shops||
ill try that
im sorry ismoil but...
what places have you explored?
The map above shows
i'll suggest saving geo, it's gonna help you a lot in late game
I suggest using it on whatever you feel is important early on
Saving wont actually help you much that later on
like ||Zote the all mighty||
Once again use spoiler tags for all ingame content
Yeah it's not really an issue in lategame
i mean it depends on what she needs next
i need it for tha as well
well for example ||upgrading nail|| or just... ||SHAW||
what are things that count for %?
Almost everything
There's a bunch, charms and bosses and inventory stuff usually
a lot, theres a list on wiki, you can go see there
Is there a || Charm to show where the rest of the Grubs are|| ? Or do i have to find them myself?
Wha
and achivements rght?
thanks
There is something that will help you in your search
well not specifically a charm, but you're close
HMMM
you will know when you find it
so like, not really a reason to be on the lookout for it specifically, its not particularly hidden or missable
it kinda is if you think abt it
imagine you wake up as the knight, and the first thing you see is (don't click the spoiler cuz it's late game spoilers) ||As i was saying, imagine you see radiance and grimm, with the pure vessel, all against the knight||
