i wanted to try cheese it
there's another way to "cheese it"
Do tell
||just clear the path from the mouner's house to the gardens and don't bench so the enemies don't respawn||
Well it's not really a "cheese"
blue im in a weird place with like no colour
you still have to walk and avoid a few hazards but not nearly as hard as the "intended" way
or the normal way
That's the entry to ||ancient basin||
And most enemies respawn when you leave the room they're in
can also just use ||benchwarp mod||
only the weaker ones
which way then?
"cheese" is not accurate tho it's still a valid way to complete it and it's not like a glitch or anything
you're just being extra cautious
||how do i start grimm’s quest?||
What's your map so far?
||i finished 100% of the game rn||
||Left beyond the broken pillars then down until you reach the tram place. Stop there||
I have every single ||areas||
uhh its best if i shiw you where i am
||Find the way to summon in howling cliffs||
Sure
@twin yoke
Very good
where next?
||OK so now go down into that big hatch in the floor. There's a bench in the bottom left of the next room and cornifer is like middle right||
Bottom LEFT
||can i get level 4 grimmchild and carefree melody on one slot||
i got map
||Get bench too then go back up||
||so basically to get 112%, i need to complete two separate slots then since i think there’s a achievement for collecting all charms||
No
You need either ||child or melody||
oh okay
How do I make it up here? I don't think there's another path leading there, and I have no untravelled ||greenpath locations||
is it next room on bottom keft?
Yeah
got it
You need to get it from the other side from another area
||is gruzz mother or whatever a boss i just found it||
where to next?
Great, now go back ||up and out of the hatch you came in through||
I see.
Like a mini boss ig
alr
done
|| guys how can i go to this guy ||
||is mark of pride worth a whole slot more than longnail?||
So ||there's a breakable floor on the left of the tram station. Go down. The Pale Ore is hidden there ||
yes, ||longnail is basically worthless after early midgame||
you should uh, go to ||dirtmouth and buy the quill||
||should i use mark of pride then or swap it out with something totally different||
ok
either works
||use pride or use shaman or strength instead||
LETS GO I GOT IT
||i found fountain that ask to drop all geowhat it does?||
true chad, ||no compass and no quill for first playthrough||
WOOHOO
||Give 3k to get a vessel fragment to store more soul||
||for 3K geo it gives a soul shard||
Oh ok thx
||3k geo for vessel fragment||
Oops late
|| ty i dont even what the quiil or the compass do ||
i also died though
Doesn't matter. ||Go to jiji if you must. But now you have the ore||
||buy them in dirtmouth, gonna make your exploration easier and more enjoyable||
|| ok i buyed the quiil what does it evevn do? ||
how do people have the || beating the trial of the warrior Achievement but not the one where they beat zote? I got them both together? ||
||it updates your map||
||zote can just not appear there under some conditions||
||same shop as quill, its the first charm in your inventory||
||if you neclect zote and let him die||
ohh
Is someone able to help me get out of ||Deep Nest, I defeated the Mantis Lords and went left thinking that was the way to go and accidentally fell down. I have no latnern, i only have the claws, dash, and vengeful spirit. how do i get out of there||
||If zote dies or if you don't get him out of deepnest you won't fight him in colo||
||are vessels a type of bug or are they just a weird thingy due to them being the children of the pale king and the white lady?||
any tips on dodging ||absrad orbs||
||keep going left and up. There's a stag station on the far left area. Or save and quit bcz I don't think the game sets a spawn point, unless you used a bench||
||Go up. You don't have to go through a dark room||
||Not exactly bugs|| so i guess the latter
Can you send a picture of where you are right now? It's very hard to guide you out without understanding that
||if you fell to the hot spring go left one room then up as much as possible||
Used this and beat it after a couple more tries, genuinely thank you so much, first boss to actually have me hitting my desk
Hi otso, hi thommie
||Weird thing. Not bug nor beast nor god.||
||go left? i landed in a srping||
||yea i hit the bench there||
Yeah go as Thommie said
||one room left then try to go up as much as possible deep deepnest is if you keep going left||
I tried doing an ||inventory drop|| and this happened to my screen
blue how do iget back up
||what do them green bean ah worms do?||
and I have no mods on or anything
||Rewards for saving them||
||i didnt rly get anything ngl||
You need to go to the ||grubfather. Top left of the big vertical room in crossroads||
where do i get gruz after ||infected||
The room that ||leads to brooding mawlek||
ah
||tricky jump. Hug the wall then jump off and pogo the spikes for more distance||
The trick is to hold the jump button for longer after letting go of the wall. You also don't need to hold towards the wall all the time.
With a bit of practice you'll get it for sure
i got up and died wt the top
well they don't ||give you the rewards themselves||
what should i use for ||normal grimm||
Why is hollow knight silksong not coming up on xbox anymore???
||you are forced to equip grimmchild, just choose 2 of either quickslash, strength and shaman stone. Tbh normal grimm isn't too bad||
you'd have ||2 notches left so idk what to do with those 🤷||
but i kinda suck ngl
yeah maybe ||quickslash and strength|| and then choose whatever for the other ||2 notches||
|| how the frick i can go for this guy? ||
from ||fungal wastes||
can I see your inventory you might be missing something
@azure blade
yeah ok you have everything you need to get it
there's somewhere in ||fungal wastes|| you can explore
ok ty
Should I kill it
I don't think you have too many other choices
What in the genuine duck do I have to do here 🙏
you can get an ability for that
I assume ||use the mantis claw for that small edge, then crystal dash??||
or two
literrally go anywhere else
I have the ||crystal dash and mantis claw|| I just can't seem to do it
you can't go there!
Yall got any tips??
||Btw what i need for these dark plasma "walls"||
on how to land that clutch
do you have a ||very cool purple thing?||
How come sometimes I max my soul out at half instead of full?
shade gates, or void gates
I have no idea what that is
then STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE
||basically you can't pass there yet||
When thou shadow covers your otherworldly capabilities, when thou darkness swallows thy soul and mind, must you be able to trespass the realm of the unknown.
Huh😭🙏
don't mind him
Oh hell nah i am going away from here before i get spoilered whole game
I CAME PREPARED
I have no idea how you get past them btw, I just made something up
you are NOT gonna make it 😭
I have 10 hours on the game 💔
||the grimmchild is so cute, so i just keep going and grab the flames?||
also geo above you
yeh
I LANDED IT, THE ||CRYSTAL DASH|| (and died right after 😭)
How come sometimes when I’m gaining soul I only get to half instead of full soul
😭🙏
||that's the cool purple thing i said||
?
Like my soul stops gaining at half even if I kill another enemy
i suggest don't dash skip cuz its not the intended way
||Is it impossible to make it without the purple thingy? Or is it just extremely hard||
But my pride as a saiyan warrior...
tbh idk, i tried it a bit but didn't work, i assumed maybe older versions but who knows
||Is your soul meter broken?||
screw that sayan warrior
Idk but I just can’t gain anymore soul after half and other times it goes past half
||did you die and didn't get the shade?||
|| what is the best build i fight nightmares grimm with? ||
Any tips on beating ||nosk||? The mfer ||took my geo and killed me|| and now i wanna get revenge
Nope
||not cystal focus||
what should i put then?
||U.strenght, it won't broke since its a dream world||
if i missed cloth in fungal wastes (but havent fought ||traitor lord||), can I find her anywhere else?
yes
What’s the hard movement section after w palace
||Quick slash, shaman, strength, grimmchild||
relly???
yep, any dreamworld
||The Path of Pain||
||i dont use mage ||
Alright well I assume that ||purple thing|| will let me ||swim in that water?|| Why am I even asking don't answer-
You should
|| even p? ||
wtf? no?

?
elo]
im a noob so i need my heal
where? ||she wasnt at the deepnest tram or ancient basin||
|| panthion ||
She's hiding
Sorry
**he
||you'll find him pretty late game||
||I've been trying leaving the beast's den since yesterday but I gave up and saw some videos, but all of them told me to use the dream nail, but I don't have that yet, what do I do now?||
She****
Would anyone wanna watch me play Hollow Knight sometime and guide me what to do? I'm terrible so it would take a lot of patience. Via twitch, or sharescreen. as I'm on a PlayStation
||ive beaten the game, im just trying to find her now||
||Go left and down, keep going down then right. You need to come back here later. Get out and get the stag outside||
okay someone tell me what area I need to get here, There's nothing in ||fog canyon|| I'M LOST
DM me
||Were talking about Cloth||
oh
I thought that's what you were talking about
Oh, thank you, I thought you needed to use it on the guy to leave
The woman*
Sorry
No worries lol
HELPP
||Queen's Gardens||
Bro ||Absolute Radiance is KICKING MY ASS on radiant please anyone have tips 😭 I've been at it for 5 HOURS||
Isn't that near ||howling cliffs||
It's left of ||fog canyon||
So the place where you ||dash skip?|| Or the one with ||dark plasma door thingy||
I do not have ||voidheart|| yet, (assuming that's the charm you need to ||pass those black walls||)
And why can't I find cornifer in the ||fog canyonnn||
Not ||voidheart. You need shade cloak. And you shouldn't dash skip, you can get acid swim from the royal waterways.||
in the ||basin tram room? cause she isnt there for me||
||You need double jump to reach him||
||Royal waterways?? I thought I was done with that place after the dung defender and that disgusting worm-like creature||
||Left there is a breakable floor. She's in that area||
I guess I'll look better then since I have that-
||Are you sure, cause I hear him and it looks like he's behind the dark door||
Every day this game makes me have a breakdown i swear 💔
||He's above on the right side||
I would argue
Did anyone ever had random crashes in the game ? Looks like my gpu drivers are crashing (black screen for a second and game goes into "not responding")
- I've reinstalled the game and cleared the files in AppData
- Closed other programs that use RAM or gpu
- Change the settings from borderless to windowed or fullscreen
- Tried the debug mode in nvidia panel
I've played the game with this computer without any issue last year but today it's kind of a nightmare : the game can crash 10 sec in game or 1 hour later, by picking up items or entering a new zone. I have spent the day looking for a solution on google/reddit and haven't find anything yet
i cant do it i cant do it i cant do it
so THRU the door
why is this stupid spike so stupid
You have to ||reach him by entering eastern fog canyon using acid swim||
Are your drivers up to date/latest windows update
||bapanada||
Is the ||Simple Key|| only for the door far right of ||Dirtmouth? Is it a one time use?||
There are 4 places to use them
Do you have any mods?
Have you verified file integrity on steam?
yes, first thing i've done
What's your gpu
yes + full installation on new HDD
Does it crash in vanilla?
my bad, read too fast, I'm in vanilla
I do not see the item in my inventory, sooooo
Then this
nvidia 1060
Try starting up another game, see if the problem persists.
Okay that should also be fine
There are ||4 keys that you can find bro||
Does your pc overheat (like have you checked the temps)
I'm playing warframe/factorio/foxhole with no issues
Interesting
I've checked the temperature and clean all the dust
Where do I need to go now?
who dis 🙏
Dream nail it trust
What do I do with the black column that doesn't let me go through it
well-
Get 1800 ||essence||
Get ||shade cloak||
lol
So know I have extra obstacles to get to the guy that gives me the map? Is that going to be frequent?
grindind essence so boring
||bapanada= baba yaga = john wick 🤔 im onto something||
i just changed it by mods
For the “black collum” you only see it twice
Im gonna crash out
???why
stupid platforming section

i am going to cry there
Can you send an image of your inventory as well?

Erm source
wait am i dumb
Im not worried about the black shadowy column specifically but about whether it's going to be frequent throughout the game for the map guy to have an obstacle before you can get to him
i think im dumb
Explore the top right of the map
source: my brain thats fried right niw and is wrong

any tips for ||radiant markoth|| literally the last thing i have to do in hk before silksong releases
||You missing the big dash? Just keep going up crystal peaks, once you can't go further, go right and down||
||Grubberflies Elegy, hug the right wall so swords can only spawn from the left so I've heard. Watch a guide video.||
btw guys where was the bank again?
I shall give that a go, thank you
||Directly left of Queen Station||
Hello guys, new to the game here and i think i defeated the first boss is a guy with a full armor with a baby head and now i have 302 geo, you guys recommend me to go to the city by the train guy and buy the things from cornifer wife? also i'm kinda lost on the game its normal?
Normal. Buy some stuff why not
do you mean in ||fog canyon||??
||Tips for these guys? I’m using Longnail, quick focus and soul catcher. I’m not sure if I should be fighting them yet, I just got the dream nail.||
Yep
i'm not rly sure where i'm goin'
||Yes, It's Normal. What train guy? You should go visit left of the Boss, Find the Shaman||
i'm just goin'
They're tough. Get more upgrades first
||You could drop the chandelier, besides that, keep making sure to have both of them on sight, VS/Dark VS and DDark are your friends.||
yeah i found that are but i have 302 geo and i could lose this i'm dyin' so much xD
the controls are kinda hard and i feel like a delay or something
Like what? I have ||I have shade soul and Channelled nail.||
are you kb or controller?
||It's normal, did you get the spell already? If so, explore the big room with a bunch of platforms. The left side of said room to be exact, there should be an entrance in the middle||
controller
|| there’s another key upgrade you can get that greatly helps||
||Do you have wings?||
i didn't get the spell but i know where is, is after the boss right?
Yes
You need them to get there
i defeated him and died like 3 times
||As I said, you could drop the chandelier||
General area/ direction?
I mean, Do you though?
Unless you do the pogo 🤷
Exactly.
|| run around kingdoms edge||
Only speedrunners use that
But it's possible
Ok but fr tohugh ||Do you have Descending Dark||
I have the first one but not the upgrade
|| have you found hornet the second time yet?||
so ||how many hits will it take to kill markoth with pure nail, strength and great slash every time||
||You could go get it, It's pretty good for most fights in general. Explore crystal peaks if you want it||
||I'm on deepnest, where do I go now? I'm basically stuck because the bottom path leads to the middle one, the middle one is impossible to pass and the top one requires 250 geo but I don't have any.||
||Also where do I need to go for the shade cloak I just figured it’s sometime after these guys||
||Radiant?||
nah nah in ||p5||
Nope
|| fight hornets in kingdoms edge. Get the mark, descend down from basin||
im not there yet
||There's a Stag Station there, explore over to the right||
||Defeat Hornet 2.||
Exactly, but I don't have geo
at ||teacher s archives|| is there a way to the left to go through? to get to || fog canyon||
Wait nvm
should be a ||breakable wall||
||I'm pretty sure there's a breakeable wall over to the left outside Teacher's||
hey megaam i going the right way
farm ||geo for the station||
for what
Mega'am? ||Can you take SS of the map?||
||Heart||
mega am lol
alr bro
ok then yeah now go up
||well you have almost everything you can get there||
||oh btw i totally forgot, what happens when you drop geos in the fountain in Ancient Bassin? I have way enough i think i have 10k but i forgot the effect.||
||3k for vessel fragment||
||Bro how do I beat pantheon 2||
In the void is crazy, ||Go Up though,||
it's useful if you have ||3k to spare||
Yep def buying this
Dont you need to spoiler tag that first part?
no why
No?
Yeah bcuz what else could I be referring to
No clue pal
What do I need to get to ||Mantis Village? I have the dash charm but it's not enough to get to the ledge||
No worries, I am too
Sorry for being confusing I must be thinking of a different game
||You should be able to cut it with just jumping though, may be letting go too early?||
thats enough
What ||charms|| should I use for the ||watcher knights||
||dash charm is just something to make ur life easier, not helping you prgress through the game||
||Wayward compass||
that's a good build
Ofc thats what im missing wayward compass
||how do i access path of pain||?
found this bench fee like im going wrnog direction 7
||Darn bro, I'd say to wait a little. But if you want to go at it, Probably the best build you have available right now.||
Silksong today btw
||That's down, Yes. Keep going Up||
Nah you talkin' crazy, next thing you gonna say it's that Silksong comes out tomorrow.
||secret wall on the left above bench||
WAAAAY above
Nah its litarelly today, it turned september 4 5 mins ago
What bench
going in circles atp
the one in the centre
First of all, what area
||Left, Up.||
you gonna go to the ||elevator and once ur up, go one room above and hit the left wall||
What area
||white palace||
It just knocks me back when i hit him
Thx
oh shit im lots as fuck lol im in japan
then you don't have the requirements yet
Did you have a stroke.
Whats the requieremntos
||1800 essence||
Is ||shape of unn actually good?||
yes
looks kinda japanese to me type shit
yup
Oh yea i only have 350, how do i get it fast?
How do you even get there atp
Finally an answer nobody has been answering me so I had to turn to the actual help channel
idk man im sooo lost lol
darn
||why do you want it fast? If you are this early in the game it's probably gonna take you hours or days if you did it now. It's a secret optional part of a very late game area.
To answer your question: You beat a whole lot of dream bosses and warrior dreams||
well that's what this channel is for
I have 80% completion
fuck he kille dme
Ok where do i find ||dream bosses||
|| fought the enraged guardian in crystal peak, killed it, and died to one of the lingering attacks as soon as I defeated ‘em. Lost the mask shard (can’t remember which lmao) that he drops. Is there a way to get it, or am I just soft locked from 100%ing that save? ||
||at the locations of old bosses you fought before. Like broken vessel or soul master for example||
||he doesn't drop a mask shard||
u found it?
|| enraged guardian drops a mask shard. You can check the wiki as well.
||
||once you beat him the room just opens to the left where there is a mask shard simply waiting to be picked up. If you didn't pick it up before you died then it should still be sitting there||
I don't need wiki
No i cant acess it yet but you told me where i need to go so thx for that
buy a ||dream boss pin from ISELDA||
Tysm
I have all shops empties out except leg eater and salubra
Ohh, k.
Thx!
||he doesnt 'drop' it but you can get one just after the fight||
||*warrior dreams||
||He doesn't DROP it. It's on a pedestal to his left||
that's what I said
||nvm i thought u were talking bout the dream warriors||
y'all 🐌
Empty them out
That’s… okay that’s weird. Thank you, though. My friend said he dropped it. 
sorry i didnt read ur later msgs
don't trust your friend. Only trust me 
I need 10 more cahrms for ||salubras blessing and i have no idea where leg eater is located||
do i have to open this from ||queen s garden ||or am i not seeing smthing?
Yes
||fungal wastes. From the crossroads entrance||
the first
Yep, ||from Queen gardens||
1 sec
||Fungal wastes forgotten crossroads opening||
sry wrong ping
so i just beat the ||warrior dream || whats the quickest way back to ||crystal pek||
where are u right now
Brooooo || how do I beat nosk in pantheon 2||
||go to the stag station in resting grounds close to where you woke up at the seer. Take it to dirtmouth and then go back||
nah u kidding right
practice it in ||the hall of gods||
no
fkn hell man that was not worth it
Its different
not even sure if i got anything from the fight except for some lore or sum
||you mean the arena?||
||i lose so much to marmu before fighting nosk so practicing by fighting only nosk isn't helpful||
then practice ||marmu as well||
can someone help me i cant use the daughter of hallownest skin
||What charms should I use||
#modding-discussion or make a post in #1057825333841240104
||strength, shaman, qslash, sbody, grubsong||
||My strength is fragile||
Can I bind my mouse aswell as my keyboard
||it doesn't break in godhome||
yes
||steady body||
should i ||use hiveblood for p5?||
no
what is the difference between the ||desolate dive and the descending dark ||
||Is that good for the entirety of pantheon 2 or just marmu?||
would it be any good for ||AR?||
ik you said no, but if its useful there, i might just
||ddark does more dmg||
||or atleast the entire second half||
||multiple things:
- descending dark has 3 hitboxes, whereas desolate dive only has 2: This means more hits for staggers.
- each of the hits deals a lot more damage.
- the hitboxes size is much bigger. The 3rd one that got added is much higher than the others.
- the design of course.
- the speed does not change.
- the iframes duration does not change||
ty :D
How do you put spoilers over your text?
|| each side
||Like this?||
Ahh
Ty
||Might be a dumb question but why is the hollow knight bigger than the knight we fight as even though they are siblings?||
||the entire pantheon. It's not incredible for marmu but if you practice that fight it shouldn't be a big problem. This build is just really good for pretty much 90% of all bosses and at least decent for the rest.
For marmu: Stand on the left side, look right. Whenever he comes charging at you do a small jump and slash back in the air. The small jump is important||
Is ||Hornet 2|| hard or am I js trash
||probably just grew but I'm not sure. Idek if it's known really. Go ask in #hk-lore if you care||
Ty
||like all the way to the left side or just a little bit?||
Trash. Not trying to be mean
depends on your abilities
it's usually a pretty difficult boss for many new players. Even if it wasn't though, every player's experience differs so you shouldn't feel bad if you found it difficult while others didn't
||not all the way at the wall but like a bit closer to the wall than to the middle||
||Any point in sitting on the throne at the top of the white palace? Does it do anything? I picked up the charm and it kicked me out before I could try||
no
but music plays after a bit
can you kill teh ||lazer bugs in cyrstal peak||
Thanks twin 🙏🏻
||with spells||
top 10 best feelings
but u cant get soul off them :( hahaha
Can I js infinitely gind collo for free money
||Dream nail||
Spoiler tags, and yes
ohh i forgot about that
||collo||
is a spoiler?
Yes.
wow
basically everything is
i cant actually deflect or hit or smthing the ||wraiths of no eyes right?||
||Is my charm build good for the pantheons? I got Mark of Pride, Shaman Stone, Unbreakable Strength, and Sharp Shadow.||
no
ye i beat him ez just to make sure i wasnt an idiot
thats fine personally i run ||shaman and soul twister for a hybrid build since i use spells but thats a good nail build||
that is what i used for p1 and 2
I’m trying to switch it up
I ran an entire nail build
And it wasn’t helping
So I’m trying to use my spells more
actually i think i used ||unbreakable strength and heart, mark of pride, and sharp shadow now that i think about it. spells are not always my forte||
what abt the last ||notch||
also why tf does everyone use ||sharp shadow it barely does any dmg||
||I think I ran, Unbreakable Strength, Mark of Pride, Quick Slash, and Sharp Shadow||
Heavy DLC 4 spoilers
||I've been trying to grind P5 and I'm getting really close, really fast, but I'm facing a massive roadblock in Markoth without ground. I consistently reach him with max hp and even lifeblood sometimes, only to inevitably be left with like, 3 masks and get devoured by Failed Champion right after. I use the very nail-aligning build of Unbreakable Strength, Quick Slash, Steady Body, Mark of Pride, Nailmaster's Glory. I'm aware of dash slash being useful here because it reaches markoth through his dreamshield, but I think I'm really stuck on what stance to have in this fight. Some people recommend pure aggressiveness, some recommend infinite patience. What do you think?||
is ||no name|| hard? i want to get ||300 essence to get a pale ore so i can upgrade my nail again to stand a better chance against the watcher knights||
it's really helpful for ||some of them like hive knight||
||I always dash through enemies to dodge, so getting that free extra hit just works for me||
i think i'm forgetting tho i might've used ||strength, heart, mark of pride, and quick slash but i can't remember||
||honestly no, it only took me like 4 tries maybe, stay on the bottom middle platform right in the center where it's safe to heal||
||i think another route is that if u beat him just survive one stagger against failed champion, there is a really easy and useful strat (cheese) against him||
||hes alr easy once u get to godhome||
no name?
No eyes
||no eyes?||
||I think they mean no eyes||
i meant ||no eyes|| my bad
||They’re really easy, just annoying||
Patience
||Its more of a platforming challenge really||
||train failed champion to hitless and dream nail him to regen hp, once you get the feel for him FC is one of the easiest boss to always hitless. this way even if you f- up markoth you have an easy recover. you can also train markoth in double damage in the room with all bosses||
||Yeah I know of the cheese buuut I still suffer wildly from Markoth and I rly need to find a way to at least not be consistently left with so little health. And maybe I should attempt beating Failed Champion radiant lol||
|| yeah he was once i got there but it's helpful for conserving soul in p2. i struggled a lot with him the first time especially since this is the first platforming or boss fighting game i've ever tried 😅 ||
yeah i hated that guy
i swear hes so easy but i keep jumping early or late
ive heard ||play patient and save soul for 2nd phase, also dash slash||
if you have ||sharp shadow then it's really easy||
||You can use dream nail on False Chapmion to completely fill up your soul, that way when you face Markov you can just spam spells for big damage||
ye i don
damn
||Ig I could do ascended Markoth to get some consistency... I can't believe TC left that cheese on FC as well tho 😭 though it really is a life saver||
||no way he's gonna have sharp shadow before beating crystal peak bosses, sharp shadow is late game (and its not even good once you have late game abilities for the guardian)||
Noted 
hes after ||markoth||
Thanks!
yeah my bad i forgot the order it goes 😭
dude im dead AGAIN man
||Oh P5 not P4||
no cap this is the most irritating boss i versed so far
||shriek is op against markoth if you can spam it well btw||
it has 2 moves 😭
how do i use the spoiler tag i have something to ask
|| both sides
select text and click on the eye
||Can I really get an opportunity for that in his second phase though?||
Btw guys just a heads up, starting from tomorrow I'll be busy playing Silksong and won't be available much if at all on discord. I'm basically boycotting the whole Internet for Silksong.
||yeah when his shield turns||
||for markoth use nailarts and save your spells for the second phase||
pov : 2 million people
||Will try this out on Ascended||. Thank you very much everyone! 
||god i hate nail arts i suck at them||
I wont be able to play till 5pm tomorrow
work sucks 😪
you and the rest of us
||I accidentally killed cloth after beating the Trailor Lord. Is there a way to save her ?||
still less than grow a garden on a bad day😭
Yeah
no thats meant to happen
||if you want a more detailed strat for the fight it's here. This is radiant but it'll work the same for ascended and attuned in P5 #hk-help message||
ayo wait your grub server tag is fire gimme pls
||and you didnt kill her traitor lord did||
||Scripted death. She wanted to die the death of a warrior.||
it's the speedrunning server
||no like i killed her soul||
||If you’re lucky enough to get under him, Abyss Shriek is your best friend||
she said we will meet again
is anyone allowed to join?
hey a question... if i get the first ending can i just go play silksong. am i gonna miss out on a lot or nah . i want to take part in this :)
||im pretty sure it would disappear anyway but i dont know, but there is no way to get it bacck||
tbh i have no idea how many people will play silksong on launch but im expecting a spot in steam's top 10 of all time
everybody sucks at everything before practicing it. It's not like ||nailarts|| are any harder to master than nail or ||spells||. You just aren't used to it
yes
||Nailmaster's Glory makes them soo much easier to use and some P5 fights benefit MASSIVELY from nail arts, such as|| ||Sly and Sheo and basically most of the flying bosses||
Sure if you want
Let's silksong all of us
i feel bad now
Hi I'm having an issue with a recurring bug idk if asking here is valid to try to find a solution...
you're gonna miss 2/3rd of the game, just take your time enjoy HK, do the 112% then go for silksong. theres no point of rushing HK to play SS the same day as all of us who waited 7 years
||A grub||
Basically every time I quit to menu by ||dash and crystal dash|| stop working on my keys and i have to reset them in the settings every time
no a game bug lol
please use tags here ||like this||
silksong isnt gonna go anywhere
||any tips for fighting the radiance? ive been kind of consistently been getting to the phase where they spawn platforms around the arena, but im struggling mainly with the double damage and the ball attack thing not all of my struggles but those are the main ones any tips?||
problem is that im like insanely spoiled on hollow knight at this point
||i acidentally killed her soul. Is there any way to save her ?||
have you ever used any mods?
half of it my fault by clicking on spoilers hehehe
is there a way to check playercount, wait isnt that steam db or smth
id love to try silksong completely blind if that makes sense and thats only really possible on release week. does that make sense
I meann if we're talking about a recurring bug that is always up to trouble, I have 47 reasons to suspect a specific one 
maybe once or twice a long time ago i dont think i have any installed atm rn
She passed on. It's ok
Thank you for getting my joke
if its just reading conversations here its still worth 112%, if you havent seen all the game has to offer yourself its kinda unfortunate imo
steam charts
ye i have no idea how any streamer playing silksong will get more than a 100 views, ppl dont wanna spoil it
i just verified the game files and it did nothing
||for the double damage... well you really can't do anything about that.
For the orbs on the ground never dash over them unless they are really directly above the ground, instead dash underneath so they hit the ground and disappear. On the platforms don't move too much and just try to make them hit the platforms with minimal movement. It you're far away most of them will hit a platform before they reach you.
Generally for the platform phase don't follow her around but just stay near the center and wait for her to come close. Also use a lot of spells||
well i think it depends on what silksong is. do we know?? is it a sequel, prequel, same story, etc???
it will be number 1 twitch, so many people dont wanna touch 2d games/ metroidvanias but will wanna watch their streamer play it
||Without actually knowing how you approach the battle, I'd recommend being more defensive than aggressive, dealing damage only when you get an opportunity instead of being greedy for an extra hit or two. Also, Abyss Shriek is awesome||
if its a natural succesion then it would make sense to hold off but if its a completely new game then i dont see why bother going through the other stuff
what you have installed right now doesn't matter. If a mod does damage once it likely won't be fixed by uninstalling it. Even if it isn't a mod though, ask in #modding-discussion and if you don't get help read the pinned post and make one in #1057825333841240104
we dont know but i think its gonna be linked heavily to HK
could defo be a prequel ur right
|| i literally JUST beat her for the first time today and i was having the same problem. my main thing was to hit her a LOT when she first spawns in phase 2 to get a bunch of soul, then wraiths and dodging||
you dont need to play hollow knight for it
Well done!!!
but, we play as that one boss right? so we wont start with late game gear
Okay, thanks. Idk why verifying the game files wouldn't remove it though...
thank you!!! my friend ||was begging me to get that ending before silksong and i did it just in time LOL||
||for steel soul, is it a viable strategy to get all the lifeblood masks in hallownest when going into radiance or does lifeblood get reset when u start that fight||
in this case ill prolly just finish the first ending then go enjoy it blind
don't do that. I think it even resets but if it doesn't that's still not worth it
I give up
||why do you want to beat radiance in steel soul?||
if you dont wanna spoil yourself on the hk story dont click : ||she's just testing the knight throughout the game to see if he's worthy, not loife and death fight. so SS could be after the knight finishes his quest she leaves hallownest or before if she went to another kingdom before HKs story||
oh good point lol
||kingdoms edge||
||so it still shows up in pantheons?||
||radiance isn't in pantheons||
||the second hornet fight right? But i dont think i can get there anymore there is snow blocking||
||You slayed the blinding light that plagued their dreams... You are the will of the void, the King of Shades... And they shall Dream no More||
||P5?||
||that's a different boss||
lol of course ima click a spoiler when it pings me XDDD. to be honest story doesnt really bother me but im interested. || how importane is hornet actually?? if shes testing us. like compared to the dreamers etc??||
ah ok
||so yes, it's there without fighting radiance||
||oh you already beat her? then go to the bottom of ancient basin if you got the reward||
||BTW if im looking for big dash am i in the right place||
She’s fairly important and ||unlocks a few more endings||
Thanks! Will try
||Now go right until you can't keep going, then down||
you ||will find an ability that lets you go through them||
||Hornet is important, in game and lore||
IM LOSING MY MIND CAN ANYONE GIVE ME TIPS FOR ||traitor mantis|| THE BENCH IS SO FAR TOO
||shes one of the dreamers daughter, she tests the knight to see if he is actually strong enough to beat the god that infected hallownest and worthy of the kings brand to re-open the sealed abyss||
||You need the Shade Cloak||
i finally 
||DDark spam, Time your Shade Cloak, DO NOT Panic at all.||
||You can't get to him without it 😭||
||Sorry man, the pantheons have fried my brain, it no work good||
It's good, Don't worry bout it
try to leave players things to find out on their own when helping. They only asked if they were on the right track
||and.. is she testing him to "allow him" to open the abyss, or are we gonna open it regardless and she seeing if its a good idea or not ||
||Is there any bench closer to traitor mantis than the one with the big window?||
||Nope||
can anyone remind me what ||the last couple percentages are? i've done p1 and p2, not p3 and i still haven't done colo 3||
not going right through here right im too slow
||P4 and C3||
what was the latest reward u got from the ||seer||
||Need to.||
||the stag is closer||
oh i hated that
||dash||
||Why did they setup a whole ahh parkour before a boss, and a lot of enemies too||
whatttt
Whats ||the seer||
||You can’t get to the Abyss without beating her||
||Dunno', But Yeah Stag is closer, Grub is right||
yeah of course but its Tight
||It's blocked by vines||
This is a very helpful site
MAJOR SPOILERS ||https://hollowknightchecklist.com/||
||dream nail?||
||Go around||
||oh ye i have it but not the upgraded version||
||you need to enter it from the other side||
||she blocks the entrance to the kings brand, this is for the true ending, and to wipe out the infection, if you avoid her and dont do the king brand and subsequent stuff you get the first ending (mid/ bad ending) tbh to understand the story you need to watch it or play it, cant explain by text, too much details||
oh slay thank you, i thought i would reach 110% by ||beating radiance but i'm still at 109% :/ ||
do you have ||dreamgate?||
||endings don't give %||
||nope||
||In order to access the Abyss, you have to beat Hornet a second time and acquire the King’s Brand, which will let you enter the Abyss||
idk if this user is fine with it but in general please don't mention things they might not have. Instead ask to see their inventory to check
is there a world where ill ever spend 10k geo
I am ok with mild spoil dw
yeah ik i tried earlier but i shouldnt have rushed and just asked
If you don’t want it, I’ll take it
yeah I'm still mentioning it since many people aren't and it's important they know the rule
Sure
Let me know which one it was, I'm curious :o
||My bet is on ascending the Seer||
That's not even close to the max you could spend lol
the max is infinite 
where would i spend that much
omds u kidding me i did all this and i got back to where i started loll
||The Bank of course!||
Damn
i have 15k now after ||selling all my artifacts||

dang ||idk if i did this or not, where do i find out||
||Have you bought everything?||
||also isnt the cap 4800 for the bank?||

||Did you collect 2400 essence and talk to the Seer?||
youll see later on
||Wayward compass.||
||i did the stomps machineswas it further up or down from here||
||everything at both surface stores, all maps, everything exept the final charm in the bottom right of crossroads, ||
|| uhhhh i honestly can't remember :/||
oh nvm theres more
||i could buy the breakable charms||
Uhh go visit her and check if ||she's there||
||Do that||
||ive maxxed out my nail||
||Have you met the Grimm Troupe?||
||yeah but i havent started it yet bc im doing some stuff in the colosseum and still havent got all the dreamers||
|| she's not there so i guess i did it already||
Yeah...
||so i guess i need p3, p4, and c3 to get 112%?||
Welll check what you have left unchecked from that website I sent earlier 😌
Oh wait you have ||109%?||
Yeah it's those lol
||Then keep going at your own pace, you’ll get to them eventually, just don’t lose all your money||
okay thanks 🤣
Sorry, I can't read, I'm a Deltarune AND Balatro fan 
ope you and @gloomy moth have balatro in common LOL
||Is this where I'm suppose to be?! Where am I?! I recongize these guys as bosses!||
my friend who introduced me to hollow knight ^
Become a Chainsaw Man fan, then you won’t be able to read at all
that is what im afraid of....
Fight them
||maybe i shouldve left my money in the artifacts, it was safe there||
||Yeah you’re in the right spot, go give them the old college try!||
omg i found it , i remember there was a location where i could use this, but i forgot completely 😭
if you can get somewhere, you are supposed to be there. If you don't do any complicated skips or glitches you can't be in the wrong place
||You can always turn back if you’d like, I just want to remind you that you’re in no rush, they’ll still be there even if you got broke||
You got this Rae!
||Kick their ass!||
so i mtrying to get to first pick from ||queen s gardeen do i need shadde c loak|| or there s another path i misseed
||P5 doesn't give percent||
If it is a boss then im coming back here with vengeance /j
||yeah my friend told me this but i thought since it looked like i got an achievement after doing it that maybe it would ?? idk ||
Pls spoiler your text
It's because ||P5 doesn't count for completion. You're missing something else probably||
yeah no there are many achievements that don't give %
Yeah also you should spoiler that
sorry sorry
ahhh okay thanks
||https://hollowknightchecklist.com/||
Here's a checklist for hk completion if you wanna check what you got and what you didn't
i deleted it
Next time put ||on either side
@frigid raven
||you either need shade cloak or another ability from somewhere else||
|| does mister mushroom give a percent || ?
No
Help please
im so confused.
Check the list the other guy sent
??||another ability to get through the shade or?||
ok thanks to u all i will go do some research. sorry for wasting ur time
will dio
It's fine good luck
no, there's another entrance somewhere else
You wasted nobody's time 😌
Gl
||did you install any external mods that weren't from lumafly?||
||is it another lvl from lower down on the jellyfins?||
Yes one skin a forum
or am i just looking at the wrong place completely
||You can enter queen gardens from fog canyon yes||
yeah. So you did something wrong. Are you sure you downloaded the full mod, extracted the files (if you needed to) and put them inside a new folder in the mods folder?
||turns out it was one of the fragile charms i forgot to collect after giving it to whatever her name was||
or was it just a skin for custom knight?
Ah well at least you found out congrats on ||112||
?tag error
How to fix Installer Errors
- Make sure Hollow Knight is CLOSED.
- Make sure that the Installer isn't in your Downloads folder (Desktop or a folder on the same drive as your game install is best).
- If the installer is in a
.zip, then you must Extract it - Right-click the installer file, and select "Run as Administrator"
- If Lumafly is automatically closing, you may be missing a system file to open it. This is currently easily fixed by running the older installer, Scarab once.
- -# Note: it's recommended to use Lumafly overall, as Scarab has some long term issues that are fixed by Lumafly.

what do i get for beating ||hornet's second fight||
||kings brand||
||what does that do||
||does anyone think it's necessary for me to really do the last 3% with p3, p4, and c3 before playing silksong bc i'm impatient||
||You can go to a new place||
Try it out for sure
You still have a few hours left so why not
but no it’s not a requirement
Ah.
|| last time i was trying p3 i kept getting stuck on god tamer, and i only made it to the halfway point once after that. maybe i'll be better at it now that i've beaten radiance and nkg lol ||
bro may be cooked
What’s the || nice thing I’m hiding from divine||
but from where? i even got ||howling wraith|| but i cant figure where the other way is
||breakable charm?||
i ended up either on ||shade gate or back to teacher s archive||
||focus only on killing the beast it kills them both||
its a room with a ||pool of acid and spikes from the top blocking a cdash||
||there are skips in some areas||
but you cant skip the whole thing
wheres the best place to go first after getting ||crystal heart ||
sadge
there's a couple hallways ||in crystal peak that i did first||
||beat her a bit ago :D damn that ending is quite crazy||
anywhere you haven’t been, prolly ||deepnest||
She just ate my || fragile heart||
||Talk to her again||
yeah she a freak
when do i fight || nosk ||
any general tips for ||pure vessel||? im having a hard time figuring out how to avoid some of their attacks
Yea what’s the point of that?
||if you give her a certain amount of geo, she gives you an unbreakable version. go buy breakable greed to farm for the ridiculous cost of geo||
||sharp shadow, be defensive and wait for openings like grim||
congrats! 
I have 16k
please use spoiler tags in this channel ||like this|| and edit your message
||that's enough for like one of them lol||
Is there a way I can switch which one I want
I don’t want heart
I just put them all on
||don't use sharp shadow.
Jump for every attack. Save your shade cloak for dagger attack.||
|| unbreakable hear is for 12000||
||no you have to do it in the order you give them, i recommend doing greed LAST||
Can I take it back
oh sorry. what do i have to censor? the names i assume?
everything from the game with very few exceptions. You can read the pins for the detailed rules
||When he does his triple slash, I just dash through and attack from behind, when he does his lunging attack I jump and pogo him, when he throw his nails at you I dash towards him, when he slams the ground I use Descending Dark on him, when his tendrils lash out I double jump and dash towards him, when he channels soul just move out of the way of the circles.||
please use tags. And then don't get it
It’s a little late she already ate it
||dashing through that isn't ideal||
||Which one||
can I exit ||white palace to go get hiveblood or will I lose all my progress?||
|| no you have to do heart first now that she has it. after that, only have breakable strength equipped when you give it to her. then equip breakable greed to farm for geo||
Yea I’m just gonna close the game without saving any hope that works
||triple slash. You should just jump and pogo just like for the lunge.
Dashing through triple slash makes daggers inconsistent||
not sure if it will but gl
||I see, I guess I have a new strat for Pure Vessel then||
||if you wanna know where i farmed for geo really easy for all the charm costs i can tell you||
It worked
well, you can play the way you want of course. I didn't want to force some new strat onto you. This is the consistent way tho 
I do
||Breakable greed and that place in the city of tears with all the rich bugs, that’s where I went to farm||
||I gonna be the best Pogo’er since Scrooge McDuck!||
Help me please
when am i meant to fight the || "nosk" spider guy ||
|| i went to kingdom's edge where there's a bunch of hoppers lol||
Well that was quite disturbing
||How far are you into the game?||
please read the pinned post and make a post in #1057825333841240104
whenever you want to
|| ive jsut got the shade cloak thingy ||
there's not a set point you're meant to fight him. Just fight him when you feel strong enough
||is the shade cloak mandatory for beating the game or not||
||you can fight him rn too but your choice||
||Are you having trouble finding Nosk?||
||just getting to the ending, no, 100%/112% yes||
Yes it is
k good
then im not getting it
||Not needed for ending 1, needed for the other endings though||
||how do i dodge the fire that comes from the ground while fighting thk||
||it shows an indicator before it shoots up||
it is?
might be hard to see but look closely
just... move out of the way
yes
||you need void heart for all the other endings which requires shade cloak||
u dont mean this right?
are there any safe times to heal against ||pure vessel||?
Guys I have a dilemma ||in P5 I can only beat markoth with shaman stone but I want MoP for the great prince zote fight|| any suggestions?
||thats what i mean, go to the left for qg||
only when he staggers, and not much time
if you wanted somethign else im sorry
i figured lol. thanks
