Ok then its broken vessel
anyway to optimize HK? i only get like 30 fps sometimes
Its 9k
mb i didn’t notice
granted my pc isnt good but still
Wait you were talking about ss?
||should i be getting that lantern now that i have super dash? or no||
yea
Random note, || thank you for being so helpful today, despite the chaos that I'm sure is happening within the server due to SS release today, I'm sure being a mod rn isn't easy ||
thats pretty average
Tyvm
if u got the money then why not
i though it was broken vessel
what is a good use of 775 geo at my point in the game
i don’t ngl…. i’m unsure wheres a good place to grind LMAOAO
you wouldnt guess the amount of people begging to get gifted the game lmao, glad to be of help
What point are you at?
gearing up to fight ||soul master||
where?
||the ss help chat is closed and idk if i need some sort of other thing to defeat it cuz im too slow to avoid his attacks like REALLY SLOW||
save up
wait where is that? i don’t think i’ve been there
for what
Whatever seems good to you
@fierce minnow please use spoiler tags for all ingame content in this chat
My bad
idk what seems good to me thats why im asking 😭
Softlocked 4 times in the same battle
Playstyles differ so i cant really help for that part
you cannot softlock yourself in this game
Yes you can
hk was built to make this not a thing
4 times in arrow
to be able to you need to do very trcky and precise glitches
so what it seems to me like is you aren't softlocked just bad....
once again
SS
can you please read the channel name for me
OOH OHH pick me

no i believe youre well aware
why did i get @'d
Mb
k
need help in ||pantheon 3||
how do i get here?
Do you have the ||city of tears yet?||
||trouble with god tamer and zote fight||
yup
What about the ||kings station||
Down to the bottom and then to the right
yo i need tips or smt for the ||watcher knights|| 😭 boutta throw my controller. i already found the ||breakable ceiling for the -1 watcher knight||
is the charm ||fury of the fallen|| good
until you reach this
Nah
mid
what does it do
if you're a masochist maybe
||Shaman stone spells|| and just pogo
at one mask you get damage buffs
oh
||75% increased damage at 1 hp||
it is mid
i dont have ||shaman stone ||😭😭
For a normal player yes
also im lowk having the most trouble with dodging them when they do two different attacks
here?
if so, its blocked off
wait guys i started hk a few days ago but uhh i may have downloaded it through a random website
casue im broke
Show your inventory?
is that alright?
We don’t know
eh
yep
Explore this
why exactly do you feel the need to share that in the official server i do not get, but you wont be banned for it if thats what youre asking
how? im on that rn and it doesn’t let me go down
#2 best charm
||you need simple key||
aw crap
tags
where can i get one? i don’t have money for it rn
depends
||where do i get it?||
its jus i feel left out that my friends got it on steam but im playing it on a riip off application
but im gonna ge ss on steam
||Salubra||
you need to buy it
this is NOT a silksong channel
regardless of what build you prefer, I'd recommend ||trying to stay on one corner of the arena as much as possible so they don't swarm you from both sides. dream nail as the battle starts so you have a free spell or two on them. shaman stone and long nail/mop are good charms for this||
some people just dont have money to spend on games and i get it dawg, dont feel left out or nothing, but you should buy it when you do have money because the devs deserve it XD
You should go beat the game 😭
what now 😭
im not playing slop
ye ik i wanna support them but i dont really wanna buy hk after alr gaining alot og progress so imma jus get ss when i can
Wait you aren’t gonna play ss why?
thanks for the tip i appreciate it, what does ||mop|| do?
why are you a ss hater chat 😭
im just tired of people hopping on the hk channel on the hk category asking for ss like cant you read
Anyone down to help someone on the verge of breaking the monitor
||longer nail reach||
ive better games to play
Same here but I thought if you finished the game the spoilers would be less impactful smh
So true like among us
is it better than ||long nail||?
indeed
Bro hasn't even tried the game which has been out for less than a day
ya
who says i didnt
sweet
it was just as bad as the original
Ragebait used to be good
True
ur a mod and u dont even like the game?
Ragebait
||i've been trying to beat the phanteon of the knight for almost 6 hours and I genuinely keep always losing at pure vessel is anyone down to watch me play and tell me what im doing wrong and what i should improve?||
gwnj is a mod and hasnt even played the game
is ||salwart shell|| good?
Wait actually 
how is that possible
idk why im suddenly not allowed to dislike it
This is news to me
nopr
k
she just
never played it?
Yes in early game, late game it’s outclassed
i srsly did'nt mean offense i was jus genuinely curious
no its just why would you mod a server of a game you hate
where the hell am i bro what did i get myself into
Cooked
begin
Hell
i dont hate something just because i dislike it those are different things bestie
Quit the game before it's too late
LOL
nvm we chilling i can rest whats the worth that happens there
||GodHome is peak how dare you slander godhome|| smh
Im stuck on that part too i need 1% and I need to fight a divine creature for that
still you dislike a game and you mod a server based around said game
can someone give me a brief explanation of what thsoe are supposed to be/do
idk
||i slander godhome because pure vessel keeps beating my ass||
Divine what now???
Click the button and find out
cant i go in a server with my besties and so happen to get mod
and is there anything in the ||godhome|| that i actually need to do
Skill issue smh
You heard me dude
i dont really see whats so bad
Yes
this tbh
guess where my last remaining % is from
I BEAT HIM 3 TIMES IN THE TRAINING THING
oh ur friends with the mods? like irl friends?
how does one achieve mod status
||Radiant||?
No
'Yes i heard you but there is no "divine beast"
you go into the form when the mod apps are open, put your username, and if youre cool enough you get in
Then go do that lmao
i kinda broke that rule because in no world am i ever cool though
||nosk||
That thing is a beast dude you cant tell me anything
except my opinions on games those rock
lol
No 
|| its one hit mode||
oh its ||nosk or flying nosk||
Ohhh yeah im not doing that 💔
No that guy's easy
Atleast do it ||Ascended||
Then who is it 😭
is ||longnail|| good?!
||pure vessel||
Not a beast
||isnt the normal training enough 😭💔||
It's worse
||mark of pride|| superiority
||even nkg was easier bro||
where is that
Playing on ||attuned is mid and cringe and unbased and it actually doesn’t really help lmao||
||mantis village||
||did you beat the mantis lords||
no
beat them
not to my knowledge
||Mantis village in fungal wastes||
||wym unbased dude im just tryna train with the stuff I have||
k
The first part is mostly a joke, the second part is true, it doesn’t really help at all
||can we find hornet again after the second fight?||
||i keep getting him to his last stage tho that's something||
||fight in godhome||
||yes||
||also in the black egg||
nukes is about to strike you down
💀
nope i dont know what that is'
so it cant be real
||should I do the coliseum of fools or should I go somewhere else like the hive, White Castle, or just try to find whatever the king soul and the pantheons are||
||where the hk is stored i dont have the game in english so idk||
probably watcha walkthrough
||do you have full nail upgrades||
its waht im doing as a beginner aswell
i aint watching allat
i think he misspoke and meant fight not find
then explore around
can some pro lmk what to do
Nah, have enough for it tho
Just watch until they find a new area then explore on your own that made it fun for me
Don’t watch a walk through first
Please use spoiler tags on in game content and secondly literally just explore the map
ye tru
why do we have to use the posiler tags
spoiler*
Your playthrough do whatever you want
no like im asking whats the next charm or ability should i get next
as a beginner
?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.
oh
||THATS ALL THAT WAS???? JUST FOR A PALE ORE???||
i dont have fun just searching for them
That’s pretty good
its boring
||ah thx srry||
||i say you get that and if you need to get anything else with money just do the trial of the fools over and over then go search the kingsoul||
i cant even use it 😭
||nvm||
Down
Duly noted, many thanks
Yw

||i'd say desolate dive||

ok thanks
||wait can i use the nailsmith more than once or is he a one time deal?||
||next ability would be i tihnk mantis claw aswell||
I mean if you really wanted to you can go beat the game now
More

this game isn't perfectly linear. there isn't really a "next one", you know
||just go talk to him again he'll tell you what you need for another upgrade||
yea but im jus asking cuz idk what r the good early game stuff that i should get
It's more just going randomly until you find something
ya ^
Yeah im not going to sleep until i beat this guy bro
uhh i have 870 coins what should i buy from the shop
i alrdy bought the 2 stuff for the map
what else do i need?
where do i go for ss help without spoilers
right now, nowhere, ss help will open in a week
nowhere is safe 😭
😭
Ty for asking first 
uhh i have 870 coins what should i buy from the shop
i alrdy bought the 2 stuff for the map
what else do i need?
What have you not bought?
everything except for the 2 stuff for the mao
Then buy those Lmao
hello i jusrt kinda came in here cause i don want ss spoilers even tho im playing it rn..
this channel doesnt allow silksong discussions at all
am i supposed to get past this yet?
show me ur inventory
me?
ye
No
No, your not supposed to yet.
u cant yet but later
yes
||does anyone have any charm recommendations for the colosseum. i am failing miserably on the last trial ||
i assume youre maxxed out?
||Is there more than 3 more sections left on the map?||
theres 3 unless ur counting sub areas
ym like|| the hive?||
oh fr?
it is not
look it up it is
i know for a fact it isnt
who is the bigger hollow knight fan
yeah
||hive was always in the game||
uhhh ur looking at what u b uy also tags
probably ||greed for exploration, strength and heart are the better ones but you have no much use for them yet as you are still likely to die a lot||
complete noob here, when i buy hollow kngiht Silksong, do i still need to buy the other dlcs?
if there are any
silksong does not have any dlcs as of now
so i only buy silksong and thats it
Yes
the "dlc" is the soundtrack
yeah dlcs come later as updates technically
buy it if you really want to
are there good mods or modpacks for the game?
why do we keep calling these dlcs 💔
the game came out 12 hours ago
Should i ||112%|| the game before i get the sing solk or is ||109||% enough
uhhh go to modding discusion for that
wait isnt the game out for years? thought this was just sth like an addon
or was it in beta until now
you said silksong
that came out today
hollow knight is like 8 years old
i wont bother counting, 2017
so this is like part 2, completely different game
a completely different game yes
Anyone?
||ppl got it before even playin hk||
u should tbh
hollow knight also has no dlcs, the one shown in the story is a soundtrack aswell
damn should i play the first one then?
had a question after seeing a post on steam; is the pogo in silksong alot worse than in HK?
Kk ill try do everything possible!
yes
this channel is not for silksong discussions
oh mb where is the silksong channel
u also did not play hk but got ss?
always wanted to try it out, thought it got an update now xD but i guess now i have to play both games xD
lol alr
i myself started hk a few days ago
but my friend sknow abt it alot
i dont know if i wanna play the first game tho. probably good idea. how long does it take to finish the games
hm
varies a lot depending on the person
ive seen times vary from 20h to 130h
depends, you want the ending or the content? also varies on how you play too
any estimate i give you will likely be incorrect
any mod i can download to check on the boss's hp? if it exists of course
enemyhpbar, #1057825333841240104
thank you
u need to backtrack alot right, like a labyrinth, probably too confusing for my brain
there is, but suggest not personally, much more rewarding to perservere
yes, you backtrack a lot in metroidvanias
That is the genre after all
however there are ||map markers you can buy very early on that let you mark locations to come back to later||
its a metroidvania, you get new gear and you unlock a dozen new paths somewhere youve already been
the latter
need to watch a vid
Spawn at check point
||With your money at where you died||
Yes
thats an option post-ending, yes, but by default just respawn at the last checkpoint you used
||rest benches are checkpoints||
i really need it because whenever i think the boss is like oneshot i just start rushing and lose in the end
so atleast i can understand if can rush in or if i still need to play safe
DO I
||fat bug with gold plating in the junk pit in royal waterways|| to be clear, spoilers what and where they are
ohhhhhhh yeah
||im doing the phanteon of the knight rn lol||
you find the ||hall of gods|| yet?
yeah
spoilered for others, youll be fine ||practice the crap out of them, as needed, especially at the third difficulty when you get it||
thats "the intended way" to learn the bosses, and honestly you could count the nail hits it takes
||i did practice pure vessel (the boss im struggling with) but it's reaaally hard to remember how much hits it took to get him down after his last phase||
ironically but truthfully, take a sticky note and write down what needs remembering
i got the ||dream nail|| but lost on what to do next, where should i go
- 100 ||of those things you collect with it||
bruh i have ||shaman stone and long nail|| and im still getting wrecked by ||watcher knights||
come back later, stronger
idk what to do tho 😭
Yeah they are pretty hsrd the first time ur fighting them learning their moves and cues can help
i beat them on nintendo switch when i was like 14 while following a speedrunner's walkthrough
eazyspeezy made a good one
ik the moves but the hard part is when they are doing diff moves
wdym?
they only have 3 moves
tags
what
what do ||dreamgates ||do?
anyone down to watch me play against the ||pure vessel|| and tell me what im doing wrong
use spoiler tags
explore ||find dream bosses|| ||find the dream versions of bosses youve fought|| ||find essence trees and collect the essence|| and thats about all for a sane dreamnail ||1800 or 2400||
i dont think thats a spoiler but ight bro 😭😭
||you put a dreamgate like idk where you want and whenever you're far away you can teleport to that dreamgate||
||teleports||
ic ty
ur describing moves which can lead to spoilers
||are the dream bosses in place of the regular bosses?||
Nice bro, Good job
woah spoilers buddy
my dualsense controller doesnt work on silksong helpp
||Yes. Would you want a list of them? or would you rather explore.||
this is nopt ss channel
||not yet i still need to defeat the hollow knight to get the achievement||
It's the name of the game.
i can find them, thank you though
Good luck
||dream bosses have a map pin you can buy, while dream variation bosses are where you fought them||
alr but what should i do instead of them 😭
||but people dont know that the final boss is him||
u dont have to do them yet move on
dont fight them and keep exploreing
search back in some old areas it is a metroidvania after all
is there any way i can skip ||the ending cutscene||
No
i mean there no point in skipping it tho
once u get it once ||world sense just shows everything||
he probably meant the credits
yeah and the cutscenes since i also get the fuckass ||mr mushroom ending|| everytime
OMG
dang]
But heeeeyyyy look at this achievement
yeah
spoiler it because people might not know who he is
tags
this is the last time i'll ever play hk it feels like a divorce
||what do i do when i reach the ancient basin (?)||
||Explore!||
what you did
||I 112% the game||
||Congratz! You did P5 Too?||
i thought this was silksong bruh i was here thinking how tf did people already reach pantheons
i have …
wheres the thing in ||deepnest|| that lets you ||open those doors around the map?||
is it in the ||dark area of deepnest||
can u be more specific?
||the "door has a slot in it" doors, one is in crossroads and one in i believe fungal lair||
the ones thqat require ||simple keys||?
no, they show up as ||a very long tunnel with dotted lines|| on the map
i was told it's in ||deepnest|| but nothing so far
uhh i dont know what ur talking about i recommend using the wiki
read my name 🥹
i know what you are talking about
should be in ||failed tramway|| if you had that titlecard anywhere
ill look there thank you
||top left of deepnest proper, not of beasts den|| good way to get there would be ||mantis lords a little up and a few rooms left|| idk the path youll need but thats the relevant triangulation
i'm up to ||hollow knight/radiance|| what's the best way to grind geo?
||Colosseum 1||
wdym? ||the reward money|| or ||just killing stuff||?
reward
||how much||
||900-1k||
can you do it multiple times?
infinite
cool
this is NOT a silksong channel
How do I beat ||zote the mighty||?
Anyone know what's going on with controller support? I was playing earlier and it worked but now no matter what I do, the game will not recognize my Xbox controller. Works fine on steam, works fine in any other game, but Silksong is not having any of it right now
how do i find ||the dream bosses||? i went to where ||i killed the bosses but nothing is new, theyre still dead||
What’s the reward to beating the hive boss
cuz without even trying him after i saw the path to it i’d say is not worth trying him more than one time
||Charm||
The one that regenerates 1 healt lost every 10 sec?
yes
Could be useful in long parkour but idk if there are any really long
yes there is
you will need it there
guys does silksong have like some sort of god home where you can rebeat bosses in no hit
||can someone tell me if i am supposed to be able to crystal dash through this?||
I’m trying to finish the game and i only ||miss one mask ik it has more endings but idk how to get them what do you recommend i want to get the best ending||
||get the first ending first||
nope
💀
what charms do i use for ||trial of the warrior||
Bro what did i do
you didnt do anything, i was stuck there tryna crystal dash for such a long time
|| you can get all endings in one save but if u get an item required for the later endings you will get locked out of the first one ||
So do the first one first
||So you can still play after getting locked up||
yes
||the bench before final boss is the save point ||
||Alr so after it ends it automatically brings me back to the bench or i have to manually load it||
||i think you just need to load the save ||
Thx
||is there a way of making it more light ?||
||Lantern i guess||
Wrong Channel
||Did u beat him in the colosseum||
||royal waterways or crystal peak ? (after soul sanctum )||
Whichever you want
Is silksong allowed here too?
no
From below
There’s a channel for that
Ah ok where? Because its not in my list
I can’t get below
Is this image spoiler tagged? Discords glitchy rn
No it shouldn’t be
If not please delete it, you can resend it with spoiler tags if you want
This channel requires the use of spoiler tags for all ingame content
it isnt 
I feel so behind. Im only 65% completion ... 😭😭😭
Are you real
Never answered the question,..,.

Ohh ok sorry
ok so after i do the ||first ending are the other ones made obvious or nah||
Not rly tbh
Can someone tell me where I need to go with the screenshot I shared?
Firstly please spoiler tag this
|| hello, im quite new to hollow knight, managed to get to greenlands though I need help with guidance and other things If anyone is kind enough to help that would be appreciated ||
yeah sorry
||Have you found any items in greenpath yet? What about map?||
|| no not yet, Found the first bench/save point ||
Then you should just explore blidnly and try to find new stuff
alright
||as i walk around my character just has black stuff pulsating on him and this has been happening ever since i reloaded my save file after beating hollow knight, why am i pulsating ?||
I tried to go all around with no luck
||you activate that elevator from another area||
Where is the area?
Do I need to put spoilers on my questions too?
||pulsating? sounds like either you're at low health or it's just the effect from shadow dash if you have it||
only if you explicitly mention stuff that could be spoilers
||city of tears||
||im full hp and i do have shade cloak so ig its that but are u sure? im literally pulsating like every second lol||
I have no clue where that is.
good! time to get lost
||at least from what you're saying. right now I can't remember another reason for void particles to be around you like that||
I think I'm already lost. It seems like I'm going in circles.
silksong help isn't available yet, please don't ask for help for it in here
lol game just came out its okay to be lost
Right, sorry. I thought this was the SS help channel
you're good!
||do you have any maps from cornifer? you should be benching often to record your progress||
bafanada
||Only one. I hear one but I can't find out how to get to him||
“Bafanada” - Bug lady
Just came back to the game
How do I tell where I'm supposed to go or what my goal is
Is there someone I can talk to that gives me a vague quote 😭
they tell u lol run around explore
it gives u lore like darksouls kinda
talk to the npcs
and read enemy descriptions
item descriptions everything
you're gonna figure it out! if something looks like you can't get through it take a note for later and get around as best as you can
...ik this... I'm saying cuz I just returned to the game and don't remember what it was I was doing
^
Ah mb
it's ok!
and I can't help anyway since I'm not that far in yet lmao
||a good place to start could be looking at your maps and seeing any areas you haven't explored a lot yet, or trying to go towards the dreamers||
||Yeah, found that, ty. Should I also just go through these paths? Looking up on Google it said to talk to the guy in town but he directed me back to the crystal caves which I believe I've cleared already||
||should is a strong word. it's more what you feel like going for. if you've done everything in peak there are likely more areas you could look into||
Did they turn images off for this channel?
no, people just spoiler them as per the rules
|| Bro can someone give me an idea on what im supposed to do to prog in silksong?
I got hard stuck on my first playthrough and couldnt escape the zone that gives the task that apparently upgrades hornets cloak ||
I had to del my first save file because there was no way back up
Ty. I just bought SS and figured I'd finish off this one before starting SS. Idk how close I am if I'm close at all but we're gonna find out ig lol
||are there mask icons in your map? if so you need to get to them so you can fight the final boss||
this isn't the place for silksong help, but I can tell you deleting it was unnecessary
Hello
||Yes, there's 3. I believe the mage bug guy (he has a fake death, I can't remember his name) is one of those, right? I believe I can get to all 3 but there's only one way to find out.||
I have the same issue atm and not sure if im slow or I have soft-locked myself. The subreddit and discord help are locked 🙁
||if you can't then you'll have to take a couple detours for upgrades, but you'll still get there!||
Ty for your help 🫡
Any tips for || lost kin ||
After i beat ||the hollow knight, how long will it take to finish the main game?||
||if you wanna have a healing window while it's staggered equip defender's crest since it gets rid of the little infection guys, and try to stay on the ground as much as possible since it likes jumping around a lot. other than that equip your usual combat build||
||not long at all, depending on what ending you're going for||
||is it possible to change my charms on the soul tyrant fight or do I just have to keep trying the boss with what charms I have||
||I would wanna put on fragile strength but I don't know if I should swap soul catcher or spell twister||
everyone is playing ailksong im scared to open any channels lol
im on vacarion i cant even play it
me too
if you like to stab boss instead of ||spells|| then go for it
i need help on hk but the problem is that everyone is playing silksong
how can me and AL help
tag that and good job!
idk what should i do now
||you could always backtrack to the bench just outside sanctum if you wanna try out other builds. if you're going for a spell one I'd say soul catcher shaman stone is a good combo, plus whatever else you can fit in your notches. fragile strength is good but usually there's only enough notches for either focusing on spells or nail, not both||
i got into deepnest but i get lost so bad bc of the dark
whats your build
well i beat that in early game and decided to just collect other ||spells|| instead of going in deepnest
exactly
show your inventory and your ||charm inventory||
the problem is idk where to go for the spells and idk whats their name
did you sit on any benches
its my first playtrough
i didint find
in ||deepnest||
okay if youre feeeling too lost and wanna give up you can save and quit and log back in to tp to the last bench you were sitting on
but i can help you
navigate
if you want
no but i just baught that thing that let me see where are the benches
getting out wont be easy though
it only shows benches yovue unlocked
yeah buty i want to continue cuz i cant buy Sk and i wanna play hk
||soul catcher and spell twister||
||do you have shaman stone?||
||I don't have that stone thing||
man
no like i wanna see your unlocks and stuff
ur items
Screenshots are disabled in this channel for whatever reason
i mean you should just explore
i can give y9ou a hint
I thought they would be on
wdym
u mean imgs?
they arent tho
Yes
I can't send any
images are fine
The button doesn't work
i had the same issue before, i put on a pronoun role and it worked
Can I do it without having my pronouns in my profile
yea js the role
I turned it on and it gave me images but I don't want to keep it
Alright tysm
you can js choose "any"
i mean
My stuff
i beat ||thk ||in like 5 or 6 hours in my first playthrough
and then it took me 35 hours to beat ||radiance||'
real, though
@round fossil
||given what you've found the build you have is technically the best one, but not the best you could have at the point you're at in the game. if you don't mind more challenge I guess you could go with that, but if not I recommend looking for the shop in crossroads first||
Where is the shop
||right after gruz mother's arena||
Are we allowed to send videos of our gameplay? I've been stuck on this "boss" for hours on silksong and I need to know what I'm doing wrong
Nooo I died at a different place and now all my coins are gone
What does it look like on the map because I have no idea what that is, I got back into hollow knight recently on a year old save file
this isn't the place for silksong help, the channel for it is gonna be unavailable for a week
||maybe a better direction is telling you to go down from the crossroads stag. you'll definitely come across it||
I just got the ||monarch wings|| can u guys tell me the places I should backtrack to that are now accessible?
I encountered one or two but can’t remember where. Other than palace grounds.
||if you haven't gone up the watcher's spire yet, wings are meant to get you there. also stuff in kingdom's edge||
anything in city?
||the watcher's spire, other than just making platforming easier in general, but that's everywhere lol||
honestly its a fine build
u js gotta get used to it
but i wanna see your inventory inventory
not ||charms||
ig I’ll check that out first time I’ve heard it
I don’t remember where that is tho
||if you haven't gotten there yet, there should be a mask on your city of tears section of the map. that's where it is||
ohhhh ok, but the mask is like in the middle of nothing so I just gotta find a route?
yeah! just explore around
||im stuck anyone willing to help||
thank you
Yo Al willing to help
I can try! what's the issue?
I dont kjnow what im doing
oh, this isn't the place for silksong help
for silksong help, try #sk-help
this channel is for hollow knight help
wait no im dumb
I meant #sk-discussion
ya
I'm decently far in but I'm still not touching that because spoilers
it should be normal that this isnt for silksong
i dont wanna get spoilered for silksong anyway
this channel so empty 💔
man i can't wait to get home
why i gotta have fuhahh school
the good old hk
Sure it will come alive again in a week or 2. I’m sure plenty of people will replay HK. Or play it for the first time after playing SS
||how many hours should I be at if I just got to the infected part?||
wdym by ||the infected part?||
Depends on your route. There’s multiple triggers for it
Everything has orange stuff around it
Did you do a ||dreamer||?
||are you talking about the first area?||
||I just beat the soul master||
||can you just tell me where on the map?||
or send a screenshot of the room you're in
||the crossroads||

||as mentioned this can happen as a consequence of multiple things. There isn't a good time for it to happen. If it did happen it might be a little more annoying but it's not anything you should be worried about. ||
thanks for ts info
why the white pfp again 
LES GOOO I DEFEATED|| HORNET||
congrats 
she i so hard man
Anika don't you have silksong to play
How much longer in the game?
a lot
not playing ts slop
||if you wanna just beat it, it will still take a while. If you want to get the secret ending it will take like 2-3x longer. If you wanna 112% it you're pretty much at the beginning||
it's extremely polished
I think you'd like it
I think I'm at 27 hours
Or 29


guys when i walk on certain grounds it starts shaking, how do i break it?
Its an ability youll unlock later on
guys after i visited mantis village in fungus where do i go
there is a path in|| fungal ||that you couldnt go through without ||mantis claw||
also spoilers
i fucked up. im in ||fog canyon|| without any items no special abilities except the first spell and i cant get out. i came though ||greenpath||, so do i js go back through that way? cus now the bugs going the other way
i just got hollow knight any tips before i start?
why isnt ||my grimmkin spawning? ive killed one or two but the rest dont appear|| :/
anyone know?
what is it
what?
wdym
you mean the enemies you gotta kill?
they just arent there
yeah the little guys
are your || flames full||
no
once you best 3 || novices|| you gotta go and talk to || Grimms bouncer||
|| Is selling to NPC the only option I just want to make sure it seems like it ||
like on your ||||
yes
Oops give me a sec
those have no other uses
I will delete
You can save and exit to the previous bench
Show inventory
ty
ima be rich now
Which is crazy b/c I think I already have everything so far
I bought out the shops 😂
no only ||1 flame||
oh you have no idea
little hint
youll need a whole lot more than youll have
for a very nice item
please use spoiler tags in this channel ||like this|| and edit your message.
Also as mentioned explore more ||fungal wastes||
Guessing some farming is required?
wait so the other || 2 aren't showing up where they're marked on the map||?
It's optional tbh
i mean it depends
I have really farmed yet, but I do backtrack more than the average player I think
Don't worry about it for now
yeah
please use spoiler tags ||like this|| in this channel.
||You need to have the charm equipped for it to spawn||
i mean
if you die with like 10k geo
it's a real motivation hitter
but you can js farm pretty easily
Nah not really
lol
As long as you are interacting with all the NPCs you can find you'll be alright
ye I do that
they are ||marked on the map but last time i went there with the charm equipped they just didn't appear||
you probably didn't go to the exact location then. Go check again
ok
did you find the little || torch thingy||?
you should look at maps online to make sure you got to the exact spot
yeah ||i've already killed two and then they just stopped appearing||
i was looking around || howling cliffs|| on my first one tryna find the little guy
it wasn't until i went to right of the marker that i found it
maps online spoil a lot. The one in-game already marks the spot exactly
no im saying
like
look at an image of the thing so hou know exactly where it is
and don't have to js go off a map
Use ||compass||
||grim|| is the ||last thing i need for the pantheons i've literally finished everything else||
This game so cool bro
if you are using ||compass|| I don't see the issue with using the in-game map
Not really
if you have finished everything else, yes
@sly trench u play silksong?
But silksong imo is harder to control than hollow knight
i downloaded it yesterday but i haven't gotten the chance yet
niceee
Yeah
yes i have
then yes
and im still ||111% on my hk steelsoul||
its literally just ||the grimm troupe|| i need
Lemme guess ||P4||?
i js gotta learn || pure vessel|| and beat || p4||
yep
Lol I stopped at ||108||
Idk if I should open that but I believe in you
i tried to fight || pure vessel|| in hall of gods but im gonna be honest i sorta got bored
Wrong tad mb

it seems like it'll go the exact same as ||nightmare king||
ill spend like 5 hours until i eventually learn it
Play silksong if hk is boring you, you can come back later
that's the plan
I know silk song is the new cool thing
ill come back later to hk when i feel like it
But hollow knight so fun
So ima beat it first
And I hear silksong is sequel anyway
So I will prob get spoiled if I play it first
It's is, it's just that the bit that he's got left tho takes time to do
Speculation
I've played it for a few hours and no spoilers yet
yeee
well even if it ain’t like a direct sequel
it prob has a lot of references / callbacks I assume
Not really
ooo
Anyways, if you're having fun play hk
ye I’m just messing around
Diff advice for the other person because other person at a different place in the game and was getting tired of it lol
of course I will beat OG first haha
but only 1 play through
Hopefully I can achieve everything on that play through
I started hk after the Nintendo 2025 direct
Gave me ample time to do most of the fun things
ye
I played a bit in 2023 but I ended up stopping due to school
but now no excuse for me to not beat it
I think im like at the point I stopped in my original play through
which is crazy b/c in this play though have discovered so many new things I think lol
like || deepnest || zone
hello guys, i have a question i need a person who knows hollow knight well to answer it
srry idk nun
Surely I know stuff,,,
im a muslim and i cant play any games if it has fictional gods, does hollow knight have any?
It does 
could you name them for me?
if u can't i respect it
||The Radiance, The Pale King, and Unn|| are the only ones that come to mind for me
It's not really got humans it's just got insects which were ruled by a ||bug called the pale king, no gods in the usual human sense but the particularly strong ones are called gods in a later part of the game||
yeah i can understand but i meant does they say they are equal to a god strength wise or does they name them as gods
Guys uh what should I use for trail of fools im stuck in the end

So the term god is used, but not in a creator deity, more as very powerful beings, stronger and more powerful than ordinary bugs from the kingdom
ohhhhh wait do i need to ||upgrade the charm at the tents?||
||Unn created the Moss Kin||
||And the entirety of Greenpath actually||
Used in names? or in places exactly
Spoiler tag your message
Does Def Crest kill hornet's thorn thingy
How do I do that
I literally sent the message telling you how
READ
Oh sorry I’m not good with commands
also if i ||banish the grimm troupe can i fight the pantheons as they require defeting grimm?||
So there is this one character that calls the gods, but they are just strong bugs, the actual gods of that game are more like ||a tree, a worm, a moth, a slug|| if you don't mind spoilers
Use /
|| on both sides
Us as the player character doesn't worship any of them, but if you don't mind spoilers, we are ||the child of some gods trying to fight against another god, but we are all insects||
the creatures you stated in the spoiler, does they have names so i can look them up in the HK wiki?
guys after i explored the greenpath and defeated that guy with the red clothes, i went to explore the fungal place, am i going in the right way or no. also im opening the city crest so idk if i should progress this way
@wet burrow These are the names
||hornet?||
thanks a lot i appreciate it @coarse nest @livid shoal
yes probably
Bruh sorry for keep asking how but do I just do ||example|| or?
Oh that’s how lol finally
How do I beat or what do I use for ||the trail of fools|| cuz I keep dying over and over again
Like the last one
i need to know this please. i would prefer to ||banish the grimm troupe for the better charm.||
||anyway mind anyone help me out on where do I use the city crest I got it from a boss idk where to progress now||
||You don't need to do anything with the city crest atm. Have you done the thing to the left of false knight?||
||that shaman?||
Yes
||Okay then you need to use vengeful spirit (the thing the shaman gave) to progress. Have you seen a boss similar to the one you beat for vengeful spirit||
||I have beaten a big boss earlier but idk if that was Important||
||bug||
||some dude named sly joined my thing and now am confused||
how to kill that turtle guy ?
||yeah I do||
Silksong?
I dont understand
||give me a sec||
Okay so as far as I can understand
Hollow knight has save files that are shown horizontal
Silksong has save files shown vertical
Idt there's anything more than that
Ohhhh right right
I saw people saying that these vertical saves were the best thing they added
Oh
Does this work
When you are stuck, the best plan of action is to look at your map and go to unexplored exits, like these
Yeah that's just nonsense lol
In this case what you are looking for is the one on the left
The higher one on the left
Guys what charms or what do I even do for ||the final fools trail||
Do you have all charms?
No sadly :(
||do i have to die to get out of the city of tears, where the memorial is?||
I’m missing a ton I’m so terrible at hollow knight
Dw man i have like none, also i too love rdr2
||I would leave the last trial till you have everything, all upgrades etc||
It's significantly harder than most things in the game
Also, what charms are the best for ||the hollow knight bossfight||
What charms do you have?
Im missing way more than that lmao
So I would need ||all pale ore and and like every upgrade||
Ill take a pic in like 10-15 mins, not at my Nintendo switch rn
||Take a good look to your right when riding the elevator that goes outside||
I would recommend it yes
