||The moment they open, hit and dash away and keep moving||
||farm soul from a local unthreatening crawling bug?||
I don’t think many people use that seriously
Hit them once when they scream and then run away
that was
what I should’ve done
dang
||parrying should still deal damage unless you're too far away||
I was like 4 hours in into hollow knight and panicking hard
4 hours and at ||deepnest|| is wild
my progression was horrible
yes
||is monomionmonmon the guy in deepnest?||
no
||deepnest is where u get lost the most||
||herrah|| is
||it's actually a viable charm in certain challenge runs, it gives you insane amounts of invincibilty letting you punish things like crazy||
nope
definitely an A tier charm
she’s called ||herrah||
||monomon|| is at the ||mushroom place with all the jellyfish||
|| fungle waste?||
and ||queens gardens|| imo
there are no ||mushrooms in fog canyon||
||monomon is in fog canyon, the one in deepnest is herrah the beast||
||”Oh…yay more fog canyon” I say in a monotone voice||
I read that as in a ||monomon|| voice 😭
||canyon|| hater 
you'll LOVE going there
Not gonna lie, ||Fog Canyon|| is one of my favorite locations in the game
||NO WHY DO BOOMS DO 2 MASKS getting the notch was HELL INCARNATE||
this objectively true
my favourite is probs ||greenpath|| ngl
||the canyon charm notch gives me ptsd||
You know what this reminds me of?
when I see greenpath I know I’m home
crazy that you got that - most people miss it lol
or give up
I didn’t miss it but I had to put a ||dreamgate|| cus I died like twice
||i was broke and desperate to beat hornet ||
guys where does the ||simple key ||go
as soon as I walk into any challenge area I ||dreamgate|| just in case
many places
everybody talking in rectangles
in a ||simple lock||
||you got to fog canyon before beating hornet?||
there’s multiple
||Imagine in ss it's gonna be the new PoP 😭||
yess
I would cry
how do i defeat the ||watcher knights|| they suck snd i hate them
absolutely (please)
but there are so many everywhere, "slot ", "empty hole" , which one works? i dont wanna go whole map trying all of them
"||THERE BE BATS HIDIN' IN THE CEILIN', AND IF YOU SO MUCH AS CATCH A WHIFF OF 'EM YOU'LL BE DOWN TWO MASKS BEFORE YOU CAN SCREAM TO HIGH HEAVEN||" from Windette's insult-guide to ||Fungal Wastes (with a tinge of City of Tears)||
holy peak
hit them
thanks
||sharp shadow|| carried me ngl
/j show your inv and charms rq
||look for a secret room above the door to the boss room||
unbased
mid charm
helped me with ||brooding mawlek|| too
It depends, the best locations early on are probably the road to ||royal wayterways|| in the ||city of tears|| or the place all the way on the right of dirtmouth which unlocks ||a place where you can summon your shade when you died, which costs one rancid egg||
Heard it's useful against ||pure vessel||
lowkey ||that is a whole different challenge to get on its own (and technically optional)||
correct me if I’m wrong ^
I think ||SharpShadow|| is awesome (situationally)
k so only ||pale ore|| i'm missing is the annoying one ||(grubs)||
ngl I don’t even remember how I got it
||do you have collectors map||
where do i get that ?
that's what people say, never tried it and I am never going to cause it's mid and only useful for ||PoP and WP IL speedruns|| 
idk what an ||egg is yet but does the key run out once i used it or can i use it on both|| cuz otherwise ill unlock that new area
||love tower|| where u fight the diddler
been there done that, they keep ganging up
runs out I think
it breaks when you use it yeah
you fight the WHAT ?
Don't... call them that...
gang, what charms should i use for the trial of the fool (the third one)
you get ||shade cloak first (snowy hell) then go to deepnest and do the parkour challenge by the tram stop (also hell)||
oh
i just put whatever on charms tbh
ngl that’s not where I struggled I found it harder to fight the stage 2 ||grimmchild enemies||
||NMG, Dream Weilder and Shaman is a must for colo3||
spoiler
finding ||simple keys|| is fairly easy though
also if you wanna take a screenshot you can press windows key+shift+S
||the tower of love in the city of tears, you need to find the love key though in queens gardens, which slightly hidden and protected||
First of all - Unequip your traversal charms (i.e. ||Wayward Compass||, whatever affects geo). The rest depends on your playstyle.
take off ||thorns they fuck you over more than help you||
im lazy to open discord on pc
btw how far am i into the game could someone gimme like a percentage ? if im just unlocking ||royal waterways||
||focus on your positioning and try learn the fight without healing, typially youll lose more rather than gain||
I used nailmaster build ||mark of pride, longnail, quick slash, strength||
||yes, yes, i know that||
take off ||baldur shell, thorns and out on twister and grubsong and abuse DDark||
the game gives you a precentage of completion in the map iirc
or is it only after completing?
where
how do i unlock here?
pro-tip don't get sandwiched
what happened to this generation... how tiktok-pilled does your brain have to be to not be able to take 10 seconds to open an app
After beating
||(if they have DDark which they wont...)||
ah, thanks
I barely used spells for it, I feel we have VERY different play styles
they do
||Need to enter from below path||
I did
you dont, look for entry at bottom of room
If you're going defensive I'd say ||UBHeart is good and situationally Quick Focus||. Offensively ||NMG and MoP are good||
crazy
like 20ish depending on what you conpleted before that
i don't have ||unbreakable strength|| also i don't really use ||nailarts|| because they are ||too slow|| for my liking
yes because I don't use ||Sharp Shadow|| 
possibly alot less
oh I didn’t use them either, just slash spam
fucking hell mate how long is this game theres no chance of finish before silksong right
what do these acronyms mean
||NMG|| makes them way quicker
chat what do i do
How do you guys deal with mantis bugs?
for the final ||fool fight|| I used ||steady body|| and spammed slash on the big fella
||NMG - Nailmaster's Glory, MoP - Mark of Pride||
theres ||another entry point in another area||
then mark of pride doesn't do anything
stinky
does it not?
3 days to complete your first run is a pretty fast lol, I wouldn’t rush though because HK is a game that deserves to be played
kingdom’s edge?
good trick is to ||hit then dash away, then repeat||
true, its because of a ||charm||
thought it increases normal range
eh?
it only affects nail arts
yeah
oh I didn’t realise tbh
oh right i was thinking of the wrong charm oops
… huh?
im about 11 hours in 😭
yep
got it
yeah I think ur thinking of ||nailmaster glory||
You mean || glory? ||
yteah i got confused
||that's why you use NMG|| 
i hate it when ||hornet does an air attack so close to the ground it looks like a ground attack||
it decreases your ||Nart charge up time||
ts an absurd amount of health
||whats the last few bosses youve killed||
aight fuck it let's ball
imma use ||NMG||
the one in ||city of tears|| p sure
madman
||soul master?||
thats it forgot its name
personally I didn’t use it ngl, I used the earlier setup I mentioned but instead of ||strength|| I used ||steady body||
chat do i go in with this build
no 🙏
Where u going
||gotta overcharm first bro ||
trial of the fool 🥶
what's that
True
spoiler probs
that's actually pretty terrible for ||Colo3||, ||Narts allow you to one shot a lot of stuff||
oh dang
||try equipping a 2 notch charm instead of nailmasters glory||
I just spammed slash the whole time and won 2nd try
try equip it a few times
best build to ||fight second hornet?||i have these
@unreal basin try equipping 5-6 times
it works but it's harder than just one shotting stuff
actually where abouts is the keyslot ofr || royal waterway||
do it until the game kinda just gives up
Yeah
I used ||defenders crest|| to help with the ||spike traps||
near the elevator to ||relic buyer||
become glass cannon
bottom right?
||take off all of it, put on Shaman, grubsong, eater and spam shade soul on her ass||
||is lantern needed for deepnest?||
yeõ
most preferbly
use ||shaman stone spell twister grubsong then any extra you want to add||
hows your night vision
well not needed but I don't think you want to navigate a room without seeing it
not needed but it deffo helps
Unlocks from other side
would take it
no wait its like middle
kk
if you do it without ||lantern|| youre lowkey built different
guys i just got to ||white palace and why are there so much saws||
thx
I am fairly certain ||Dcrest doesn't affect the spike balls||
I did mine without it, but because I am not built different, I lost EVERYTHING 🙏
house decor
oh i thought it did during my fight but maybe it’s just my memory
im already on 1 mask
||saw palace||
I finally did it omg
was about to specify "without dying" 😭
I deffo used it for ||broken vessel|| minions
Bro don't
that would be very impressive
if I were to restart hk I would do the OPPOSITE of my first run
yeah i used focus less (it kept putting me into bad situations) and used ||stalewart+dreamshield||, that did the trick
wait why can i focus ||with full helf||
cant a king have a hobby/passion?
||ddreamshield 😭||
to waste soul 🔥
to waste your souls
nice
nice
it's easier to just no implement that functionality lmfao
is this setup good for greenpath moss soldier grinding?
why are you purple
i swear to god if i die to this thing one more time
||take off thorns
||
Very good
why are you grinding there
||OC||
how?
they said good
||thorns with overcharmed|| 🥀
I hit 107% and still no idea how to do it
what? wdym how?
mine just doesn’t go on
they're ||OC'd||
what should i use for ||exploring white palace||
yeah there are much better places lock in
i have nothing else for dmg so i just equipted that
spam it
is it bad? it looks too cool to be bad
like?
you have all the worst charms for this ngl
||you take double damage||
how do i beat ||gpz|| in the ||pantheon||?
oh dear
||city of tears|| ||coloseum||
||try spam equipping charms that exceed past youre notch count||
most unpredictable fight ever
Don't be ||overcharming when you're not experienced with the game. You take double damage||
i see
mainly used in speedruns and hitless runs, it ||causes you to take double damage in return for 1 extra charm||
are you only able to ||OC|| one or can you go as far as you like
you can go up to having one notch left then equip one of any charm you want
The preferred charms are not available for you
||R5 would so easy if I could OC MoP, Eater and Flukes simultaneously||
||steady body and shamans stone arent great, but the dream one is the best one you got||
You’re missing the best charm for it 😭
chat am i doing this right
only ||one charm, but doesnt matter how far over it goes||
no ||grubsong|| no ||deep focus|| no ||hiveblood|| hes cooked ngl
no you’re on switch
im just gonna take a shot in the dark is this decent
it doesnt work on switch?
nah I was kidding
Yes :D
oh
yeah
I didn’t even watch the video I’m just being judge
phew thank God
y
awesomesauce
DO NOT USE ||SHARP SHADOW||
un eqiup ||sharp shadow|| in my experience you dont want your ||dash|| to be even more inconsistent
yup that's good, it's definitely one of the most versatile tools in your skill set
i didnt use ||deep focus nor hiveblood for white palace, but i see where you re going||
the hate is unnecessary
it’s a good charm
that's terrible
all right!!!!!
for combat yeah
no legit for ||white palace|| its the worst one
not platforming
absolutely not
||Mark of pride and quick slash, don't use sharp shadow cuz it messes up your dash length. Dream wielder isn't very useful. You can dream nail the royal retainers (white dudes) but not like you need the extra DN speed||
OHHH he’s doing THAT
its alright
yeah no remove it
nope it's objectively worse for combat than platforming
i died and my soul is litterly gone
this?
i disagree
thats fine for now
and even then, only IL speedrunners use it and that too specifically for ||WP and PoP|| runs
Replace ||longnail with heart||
someone please help
||fragile one||
It does help a lot there
do my ||fragile charms break when i die in white palace||
||Dream Weilder, MoP, QF||
Did u die before getting your shade
||find your shade (marked on map) and kill it. Or go open the rightmost door in dirtmouth||
still useless for a casual ||WP/PoP run tho||
legit there are ||dashes|| in ||white palace designed for the normal length of a dash, sharp shadow adds more distance ||which will make some parts impossible
In ||dream|| areas they dont and it does count as one
i think
can someone tell me how to ||kill soul warrior i swear it ahouldnt be this difficult am i dumb or just bad at the game||
thats the thing my shade isnt there
||that'll just spawn another shade||
you won't get geo
||If you can't find it safely just go open the rightmost door in dirtmouth.||
i think so, because ||while dream state is technically not death, white palace and radiance are exceptions||
what area are you in
fungal waste
||he has like 3 attacks,
dive, literally just dash
dash, literally just jump
orb, just circle it around you||
leave the game and reenter it
||pro tip, he can only move horizontally and vertically||
I can’t 😭
k lemme try
I think ||path of pain|| counts as a ||dream|| no?
no its part of ||white palace||
no, bc its part of ||white palace||
still not there
|| Walk aside when he spawns above you, jump and pogo over his dashes, make his orbs run into the ground. Use spells when possible||
dm me
Guys this is so confusing
||i dont die to the moss soldiers thats why i overcharmed, considering with shaman they will die faster||
im not good enough for any of that
||Why isn't Nightmare King Grimm in the Hall of Gods?||
||I beat it in the main game. Do I need to see it in P5 before it's available?||
just dodge and hit
he is there
also spoiler tags
||I tried every statue that looks like NKG (at least how I remember it) and I tried beating the first Grimm on Radiant Mode but I still can't find him||
||dream nail the statue||
||Dream Nail the grimm statue||
it doesnt do anything to them
and again spoiler tag everything lmao
Done
this too ty 
I never would have expected that
Also should we also spoiler tag this?
||is the best route for moss soldiers the area next to hornet room?||
It is tagged
Is ||banish or nkg a percentage||
The ||Dream Nail symbol is on the statue lol||
I feel like just like every skill I have my abilities are so unbalanced
Yes
It's 1%, whichever you do
I DID IT!
Alr imma get ||108 then||
I recommend nkg but it's up to you
i shouldnt be that happy…
||how much hours is considered end game/late game||
Congratulations
What'd you do
Was offline lol
Sounds like a matter of my skills being unevenly distributed lol
27 - 40, depends on your speed
||i killed soul warrior, only took 6 hearts, two lifeblood hearts and 7 charm notches||
Lol I took like 75+
Depends a lot tbh
my 112% save has about 87 hours on it
The ||guy who teleports and has a sword?||
That one gave me a lot of trouble lol
sponge build for life
My ||107 is on 95 lol||
You're gonna die
yolo
are you using a checklist?
it's not how many hours it's how much stuff you have done
guys, which place should i go to? farthest place I’ve gotten to was ||deepnest|| from the entrance ||near the green guy being controlled by the infection with the 3 big green guy enemies (i forgot their names sorry)|| but i feel really lost there
Nah, ik what else is left from ||that save website but it's been a while since I checked it||
Where have you gone and what items have you gotten?
where do i go now..
And I'm gonna stop at some point I don't care about full ||112 tbh||
yes
where are you?
I completed my 112% ||steel soul|| save in just under 20 hrs, that file now has 93hrs on it because that's what I use for my modded boss runs and ||GodHome challenge||runs
Fully explore the ||sanctum||
so i went ||to the right of the soul warrior arena then went down and unlocked the shortcut back to the elevator that took me up to the arena, and now im just there||
i think my ||steel soul|| is sitting at 100% on about 10-11 hours
But theres loads of ||soul twister thingys that are gonna get me||
ive been to ||crossroads, greenpath, fungal wastes, fog canyon, queens station, mantis village, and deepnest||. the only spell i have is ||vengeful spirit||, no nail upgrades
Take them on one by one
nooo use it more often the UI looks cooler 
||yo guys how i unlock radiance?||
||go to city of tears asap||
|| did u beat hollow knight||
im really really bad at them if i die will i have to fight ||soul warrior again?||
Where?
true but ||permadeath||
yep
No
how do i get there?
||you can't die in GodHome|| 
ok ill try..
what charms do you have?
||There's a big statue on the Fungal wastes map. Go there||
|| u need to get the 2nd half of the mask then go to the abyss||
i have the 2nd part
true which was good for some %, same with ||dreamer bosses||
|| abyss||
exactly where
where
112 ||steel soul|| before silksong surely
||Bottom of the main Abyss room||
||should i get my 6th mask or do i directly go to city||
and there do what
||where you got shadow dash||
|| there should be a breakable platform where u land at the bottom||
Just have ||Kingsoul equipped||
ok
||hey guys how can i get the map for fungual waste and is it in the mantis place?||
||how many shards do you have rn??||
It's above. Left side of the area.
3
above what?
it's at the start of the area
omg so i missed it
||2 from sly, 1 from queen station||
yeah go get it then
Above the ||Mantis village. Its right down from Queen station||
||can you tell me where one is?||
||look for grubs in crossroads and the go to grubfather||
you need 5 ||grubs||
aight
Free one from the ||goam room||
i have 3 so far
just get any two on the map
alrighty
chat do i have all ||spells||
can u mark me exactly where with a circle
there's one just outside the ||stag station in crossroads behind a secret wall||
Yes but ||fireball and wraiths aren't upgrade yet. You can go upgrade fireball in soul sanctum||
Literally bottom center
k
okay hunter and blue
on that tower?
The main room you drop into.
||Somewhere around here||
and there i have to dive?
Yes
just stand there
Nope
no
forgot
imagine not remembering every detail smh
where is ||hornet ||aiming at?
is she dumb?
Wrong channel buddy
It's called an "enemy jumped over ya" moment
Also, go to Silksong channels this is #hk-help
also I just think William and Ari aren't actually good at the game
||is it past the mushroom dudes||?
I doubt they tested ||P5ab or R5||
how the fuck do i go past that ?
||dash||
||dashing||
i just keep on dying
||i just got soul twister and idk what to do next, im on like 2 hearts so idk if i should fight the boss, how difficult is it?||
One of them balances the bosses based on charmless gameplay iirc
I'm sorry why are you playing as Chara/Kris (I can't tell which)
You gonna die
at the end of greenpath why is there a bug and what do i do (it looks like its on steroids)
Time your moves
skill issue
i know but i dont think i can make itback to the bench
whats the timing ?
Save and quit
What are the odds of menderbug spawning
oh yeah
When it's going up dash through, roughly
im deadass so scared
P4 charm build?
this BUG FLYING UP AND DOWN IN GREENPATH IS SCARING ME
what does this do?
||gives soul when sitting at a bench||
don't buy it
why
||that's a parkour challenge if it is what im thinking of||
it's gives you trauma
ohh alr
what ||charms should i use?||
it looks like its on roids
The description you provided is very vague
You probably can't do this part yet
||good for hk?||
Show me what you have
oki brb
wtf man
Yeah thats ||a platforming section||
Good
alright thanks
Im regretting
i dont trust myself to get past this shit
regretign what
Guys, i am in the second area and i have quite some geos. I don't wanna lose them so should i try to return to the first one and buy smth or just keep playing and hope to not die twice in a row?
I don't think you even have the abilities needed

||longnail and thorns of agony or shaman stone on my first playthrough when I only got the white fireball thing||
ty
then what
Explore more of ||kingdoms edge first||
okay!!!!
||Explore Kingdom's Edge fully||
what should i do now in this progression?
what should i buy after leaving ||greenpath||
why is everyone suddenly dead set on using ||thorns|| 
hello, how do you break that?
Go right of the ||statue on the Fungal wastes map to the next area||
its 1 notches and good value on new players
whats the best thing to buy with 200 coins / money things {ion know what they called}
|| desolate dive ||
||Dive spell||
in the ||fungal wastes map you see that statue of the knight in the middle right go there||
it's terrible
go back and explore ||City first||
if you get hit alot it gets value
Get 20 more and buy ||shaman stone||
i mean, but it doesnt give any additional iframes, you can easily get hit right after animation ends
||im new this is like the only charm that uses 1 notch that I can use||
yea thats right tho
but its 1 notch
where the hell is ||shaman stone||
if you have a notch to spare you can use it
no cause unless you have ||Stalwart shell byt the time the animation ends the boss is gonna start it's next attack and you don't have invincibilty to retreat and catch a breath/heal||
||Forgotten Crossraods bottom right ish of the area, from salubra||
anyhow i came here for 1 question ||does anyone know how to deal with sly's second phase consistently?|| kinda struggling at it atm
||When he stops in the air to spin dash away then walk back and hit, or have a great slash charged up||
yeah, just stand there with your ||nail art charged up, when he comes close to you dahs in the opposite direction, walk back and great slash||
sick ty
this is actually very inconsistent without ||MoP|| in my experience
like the first part
It can be which is why I also suggested using ||Narts||
But yeah ||MoP|| is hugely helpful for this fight in general
wrong channel 
Yall know the ||godhome boss||, ||i lie dreaming in the wastes|| and ||i serve my queen inside her dreams|| are?
Hi, I'm stuck here and I don't know what to do
||dream warrior in fungal wastes and the other you need to complete a quest||
Which quest
||did you save zote in deepnest?||
Uh, no
ive played for 16 hours and barely made any progress im so bad at this game
Not yet
go do that
Alr
where you at rn
||soul master in soul sanctum||
||you also need to save an NPC from fungal wastes as well, and then do colo1 and then go to Dirtmouth inside the npc's house's basement there'll be a statue dnail it||
Idk the image didn’t load yet
Do i still have to do it after ive beaten
yup
Wait r u talking about ||bretta||
16 hours and ive done almost nothing…
early game is pretty slow I gotta admit
not this slow though…
true but you can do this
i bet theres 112% speedruns faster than my current time
and im probably like 10% in
||why dosent the big lady at fungal wastes dosent appear anymore?||
The fastest one is under 3 hours
||Cloth? She moved somewhere else||
so me spending 16 hours to get to ||soul master is really really bad…||
alr thx
they are speedruns...
You're still learning. The under 3 hours is done by the best and most skilled players in the entire world lol
yeah but like…
it took me 37 tries to do the first boss i DO NOT THINK IM EVER GONNA BE GOOD
those guys basically spent hundreds if not a thousand hours on this game learning every little mechanic, ofc they'll be fast also they know where everything is you don't
And they plan their route to the finest detail
how long did it take you to get to ||soul master in your first play through?||
I think 2 hours?
||i love how the game gives u a key on the first boss thats for a much later area||
tbf I watched a hitless run
AND ITS TAKEN ME SIXTEEN HOURS
I got lost in ||greenpath going in circles for over an hour my first time around lol||
to get to him and attempt it
that's different
How
Friendly
he friend
tags, also frend :D
@tawny sapphire
cause the time I gave you is only the time I spent on the boss itself
||Charm build to figjht the sun?||
how many hours into the playthrough were you when you got to ||soul master||
||I literally skipped talking to him for like half the game cuz I thought it was a boss||
no clue probably like 8-12hrs in
You want to cast spells or hit ||the moth||?
faster by 4 hours minimum 😭
Whichevers easier. I've preffered hitting throughout my playthrough but if spells is a lot easier, than that
I have a history of skipping most upgrades and still beating games in the average time frame so if I am actually getting the intended upgrades ofc I'll do it faster
|| almost started to run away but when six people said hes a friend i ran back ||
don't go hard on yourself, people have different skill sets
so what you were saying is you wouldve beaten my time by more
uh no I beat your time by 4hrs cause I actually got the intended stuff but would have by less if I didn't
im doing all of this just so that i can go and upgrade ||my nail again||
For hitting ||Fragile/Unbreakable strength, quick slash, mark of pride, long nail||, For spellcasting ||shaman stone, soul catcher, spell twister, soul eater||
got to ||city||
You want me to give you a mixed build?
im pretty sure ive gotten more than intended stuff and i still struggle 😭
so like where should i go from ||hunters journal area|| to ||green path entrance||
You shouldn't compare yourselves to others. Only to your past self. I had a rough time my first playthrough, now I got all achievements in the game. You can improve, with time and practice.
im so bad at this game 💔
did you memorise ||Soul master's|| moveset and the appropriate way to dodge them?
ts the area?
nope
no im too scared to go back to it and i havent even fought it yet
too high
ive been seeing allot of these are they just lore drops or a piece of a puzzle?
oh
Lore. This one says that they quarantined off the city
lore i think
Lore drops
Just keep trying until you succeed man, idk what else to tell you, you will get better eventually, trust me on that
quirrel x knight
trying until i succeed takes hours
should i just wait until my switch 2 arrives and play on that
Young love
Do what you will
||im at the entrance to greenpath where do i go to reach the area after green path?||
true
Is there supposed to be a statue in ||brettas house|| after ||colliseumm 1||
should i?
If ur a first playthrougher yes
Absolutely
wym if im a first playthrougher
that's the issue, you don't know what to actually do in the fight, sure you can throw yourself and pray you get good rng but that's gonna take a while
I'll just give you the moveset and the appropriate reactions
||dash: he'll spawn near the floor on one of the sides of the arena and slowly move towards you, jump and pogo while moving towards where he is coming from then as soon as you're at his head level turn around and vengeful spirit
dive: he'll spawn above you and dive down, hold a direction and dash and keep moving, and then once he lands jump over the shockwave
fake dive: if he fakes a dive and you already dashed dw, just jump away wait for him to land and dash back to where he landed (you should be mid-air after he lands
orb: he'll spawn in 1 of four locations on the arena, wait 1 second and dash towards him and hit him
orb cycle: he'll spawn in the air on one side of the arena, and move slowly to the other side, wait in the centre and do a hop over the orb and then jump high and vengeful spirit from behind before he teleports away||
that should be all
First time or not very experienced
||did you save zote in deepnest||?
But yeah i recommend
Oh i need to do that too
I thought they were seperated
yeah lmao
||If I get hit while holding the delicate flower, can I get another one? or is there ONLY ONE||
you gotta save ||zote|| first
theres more
u can
Infinite retries
inf of them
i one shot the base fly thingies now les goo
Okay phew I started the quest without knowing what it was and I was worried
nicee
Next up ||gruzz mother|| in 2 hits
like nail hits?
is that even possible??
oh wait do u have do ||arts||
i think you can 1 shot hornet too
I didnt use ||arts||
3 shots
|| Grey prince zote ended my run in p3 😭||
how then?? I have ||pure nail and fragile strength|| and still don’t 2shot
oh wait nvm
I only tried on ||radiant|| mb
I’m being stupid
it's actually possible in 1 hit
With ||arts||
using ||great slash||?
you have to do base game ||Gruzz Mother|| not ||GodHome cause health is scaled iirc||
Howe
you need to use ||great slash or dash slash with fury||
then why did u say no to ||arts||
with ||pure nail||
I didn't?
here
wrong message mb
oh alr
but yeah ||pure nail is 21 damage, narts scale it by 2.5x and fury scales it by 1.75x
that's 21*2.5*1.75 which is 92 damage, base gruzz mother has 90 hp||
yeah which is why it's used in speedkills
does ||strength|| affect ||narts||? also does ||NMG|| affect it or is it just the windup
||Nkg has more than 644 HP what||
||NMG only affects wind up and strength doesn't affect Narts that'd be too OP||
||Pantheon one done||
aw man
Congrats

No way google fed me misinformation
||tmg already has 1k HP if u have pure nail||
I think
According to wiki
he has 1500hp
Dude wha
does ||range charms|| affect ||arts||
whats ||lake of unn||
Crouch
Subarea
area in ||greenpath||
crouch when heal 😭
yeah he has a ton of hp
||whats the purpose of lake of UNN||
dw abt it for now
||charm and grub||
there ain't no ||grub in there||??? unless I am wrong
there is one nearby
I haven't played base game in 2 years
but I don’t think it’s there exactly
i killed the ||knight type thing staring down at the lake||
unless I’m wrong
U need acid prove body
yeah I thought that was a different one
NOOO he was aura farming why'd you do that
||wait is this where i get long nail||
Huh maybe it's a different area
elderbug is easily the best aura farmer
No
no
||then where tf is it||
Buy

||R5||
||P5AB is easier but it's slow af, I'd rather learn speedkills||
||r5ab when||
never
With ||white spells old nail||
||04r5ab is mad||
I am actually not gonna be able to finish ||R5|| before silksong which is a shame
but assuming silksong has ||pantheons|| I'll be running those hitless
I'm not gonna be able to do ||p5||
surely you do it
||Radiant P5?||
is this low enough
this is gonna be harder than ||R5|| 😭
yeah
Nah I beat ||p4|| recently

?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.
your best bet for when this channel and google can't give you tips is go watch someone else do it, and learn how they did it
hold up my cat is screaming
that's how I have done every challenge run and modded boss I have tried
car 
I hate ||hornet 2|| ☺
but fun
yo when i went to bansih the grimm troupe after i defeat nkg i cannot see the guy to banish them and idk where he is so i wanna know if im cooked and i cant get 112
U can't do both
wait so can i still get 112?
|| u can either banish or fight nkg ||
U can
How the heck do i get to ||zote|| in ||deepnest||
o ok
It's just u can't do both
My dumb ahh thought the same when I did that for the first time
the ||abyss?||
you have 2 things you can do rn, get to the bottom first, and go left ||you'll find a pedestal use Wraiths while standing on it|| this is the easier of the two
then go right and you'll figure out the rest
okay
time to die to ||oblobbles|| again
gotcha
do you think i have time to complete ||pantheon 3 and 4|| before ss comes out?
yes
i mean i have a full time job so i don't know but i could try
||2nd pantheon done ||
Does anyone know how to get to ||zote|| in ||deepnest||
|| go up and around ||
dude istg these fattys have an even fatter hitbox than they look
am i on the right path
go up one room, left, then back down
yes
what do i do here? i pulled the ||lever|| and stuff
do you have ||crystal dash||
is this hard?
||you can now cdash over the void lake to the right||
yeah?
okay!
nope
you can't even get here without it
pretty free
go back down the ||lighthouse|| then ||cdash|| across the ||lake||
Hey yall, i just defeated the ||pantheon of the knight|| and now i want to ||defeat the gray prince zote|| but idk if it makes the ||pantheon of hallownest gpz|| stronger, can someone tell me if ||after defeating the gpz multiple times its strength also increases in p5||?
yes you can?
nope, not unless you do skips, ||You need kingsbrand to come here, which requires Hornet 2 which requires Wings which requires BV which requires Cdash||
Just play the game, beat him
||aspid skip|| is so easy
i dont want the ||p5|| to be harder tho
cuz i wanna beat it before silksong
first time players aren't gonna attempts skips 
you can also do that one ||shade skip for bv|| but ||aspid skip|| is just so easy
smallant:
he's a speedrunner tbf
It’s not that harder I still beat it
do i have everything now? where do i get more ||mask shards and vessel fragments||
||p5|| already has level 10 ||gpz|| doing the fight more doesn't affect it
Is this the official hollow knight discord?
||flower quest...||
Lowkey lost rn. I got to the point where I can face the 3 dreamers. I can currently fight the Deep Nest one, but don't know how to get to the other 2
oh
yup
oh kk, so i can js defeat it without consequences?
ty
yes
or if you haven't killed him at all already it will be even easier because you don't have to kill him
||also upgrade the nail, mask and soul vessels smh||
gotta 112
The ||damage isn't increased tho, just the HP and names||
they asked where more ||mask shards and vessel fragments|| are
Search on the wiki
yeah
alr time to try ||p2ab|| again
Good luck
honestly this is where you start using a checklist cause there is no way anyone's gonna know which ||masks shards/vessel fragments you already have||
I js can't get past ||oblobbles||
Yeah I hate them
however I don't recommend doing that yet
btw how many of each do you alr have
Is ||heart strength shaman and quick focus the best for shell binding? Or should I put in quick slash somewhere||
Yes
||I’d say put on QS instead of QF||
Sort of, the people who work at TC are in here but it’s not run by them
Okay
guys what's the best charm build for ||all bindings||
??
||charm binding||
||🤫 ||
Lol
||Sharp Shadow, Glowing Womb, Dream Shield, Joni’s Blessing ||

and the best charm build for ||radiants|| is ||joni's blessing, unbreakable heart, lifeblood heart, and life blood core,|| right?

There is one

||are you doing the first one ||
YES I MADE IT PAST ||OBLOBBLES||
im at 28 hrs gp and have ||monarch wings, acid swim, crystal heart and i have beaten the knights and currently beating hornet 2nd time, is it fast for first time or not?|| and more importantly, am i close to the end? i hope not
yeah
yeah look around there
?
depends which ending you want
the best one
and i have no idea how to get it or wich one it is
for main ending you are pretty close but for ||true ending|| you're still a little ways away
i didnt even know there are diffrent ones
You need to use || the grimmchild charm for it to appear ||
how and when do you get past this?? its been bothering me since earlygame
how do i get the ||true one||?
and even after beating it the first time there's still so much more
ability u get later on
good
i love this game
||you need ismas tear from royal water that lets you swim in acid||
got it equipped
eventually you get an ability to swim in acid
im at the location thats on the wiki lol :') its shown right where im standing
Ya need Blank's Blank
but how do i get the ||true ending||?
Is there a torch thing around there
