[balmy raptor]

guys what boss do i fight next?

[pliant wharf]

anything else i should add

[polar flicker]

|| either catcher or twister ||

[polar flicker]

|| quick slash ||

[sonic eagle]

ahahhahhahahhahhh help me out of this jar

[pliant wharf]

||quick slash it is until rosaline responds||

[pallid vortex]

||Shaman, Long nail, and quick focus is what I used I think, mantises have a lot of range, especially the lords so long nail helps with that||

[pliant wharf]

alright i'll try that

[balmy raptor]

the last boss i killed was ||soul master and crystal guardian||

[polar flicker]

Depends wat ability u have

And how much map uve explored

[balmy raptor]

i got most of them except for the ||double jump ||

[limpid pagoda]

||does killing/saving the nailsmith work towards completion?||

[polar flicker]

Yes

Well the nail does

[polar flicker]

Then get it

[flint radish]

Is this the ||normal ending? Where Hollow Knight absorbs the yellow thing from the knight and gets sealed?||

[pallid vortex]

||the broken vessel is in the ancient basin, and once you defeat him you get the ability past his arena||

[real herald]

[frosty island]

||quick slash long nail and mop is VERY optional you stay close either way, so get a few soell charms||

After ||coiled-pure nail, unbreakable strength||

[ivory crow]

[tacit sable]

Hey kyda, quick question, ||that "thing" you meant, its the caterpillar right? Nothing else? Cause I went to the crystalized mound and all I saw was a caterpillar, or is there something else I am supposed to see??||

[polar flicker]

[thick wing]

What are the optional bosses?

[tacit sable]

What y u struggling with

[verbal jewel]

hi chat, my friend is having a lot of trouble with ||ngk. genuinely the only attack they get hit by is his uppercut into fireball attack. they're able to dash through the uppercut, but consistently gets hit by a fireball afterwards. i've tried telling them not to dash through the fireballs, just walk in the opposite direction of their trajectory, etc. i cant seem to provide any further instruction that could help with them dodging that. anyone have any further advice? they get hit when they try to dash, they get hit when they stand still, they get hit when they walk in the opposite direction, and they get hit while walking along their path.||

[balmy raptor]

they do so much damage :c

[thick wing]

All of that annoying bastard

It killed me 20 times

I almost throw my phone to the wall

[balmy raptor]

wait if its ||infected crossroads|| do i go to the black egg thingy?

[frosty island]

||when dashing the same way nkg is know that one fire ball is always below him and in front of him is a gap||

[thick wing]

I don't know much English bro

[frosty island]

Hmmm

||stay close to soul master when he shoots orbs to do dmg the orb shouldn’t hit you, the slam attack just hold jump and if he didn’t slam and re slam just dash and re jump,||

[verbal jewel]

yes they are aware of that and they try to position themselves a certain way but they always get hit without fail

[frosty island]

Then pactice

That attack is one of tbe most nasty of his kit so practice

There no more advice

[verbal jewel]

yeah i've been watching them practice for hours lol

[balmy raptor]

What does the ||rancid egg do?||

[frosty island]

[chrome flame]

[tacit sable]

||If you want crystal heart, you go to soul sanctum which is near city of tears, you defeat the soul king and you get his ability which is dive, then you go to the crystals thingy near the forgotten crossroads and you use dive, then u end up in crystal peak and if u explore crystal peak you get crystal heart||

Okay so now I need to go back to ||forgotten crossroads through blue lake??||

[polar flicker]

Nah we all hate this game and are masochists

[kind crypt]

Luckily u said its easy x)

[kind crypt]

Well yeah

Some people want to play differently

[drifting jetty]

Yeah ig so

[plucky coral]

[frosty island]

It is but I’m tryna no hit lmao but i don’t even have to to do it normally

[tacit sable]

Guys after I defeeat ||dream warrior aka xero, do I go back to forgotten crossroads through blue lake or do I continue searching cause there is more to it?||

[frosty island]

As a terraria player agree

[kind crypt]

Yeah alright just want the style points

[frosty island]

Go back to ||crossroads there’s all surprise waiting||

[balmy raptor]

[polar flicker]

No need to flex on us bro

[balmy raptor]

[frosty island]

[polar flicker]

||I'm guessing uve done radiant hog ||

[balmy raptor]

[frosty island]

Ironically

[polar flicker]

Nah ur patience to become so good is def a good quality

[frosty island]

Not yet lmao

I can’t even find the time to finish the last percent

Like I’m doing homework rn

😭

[polar flicker]

F

[kind crypt]

"homework" = chatting

[polar flicker]

|| p4 or ? ||

[frosty island]

Yea it on fucking paper

[tacit sable]

The surprise is that the ||blue lake was behind suraba?||

[frosty island]

It maths

[frosty island]

Not wuite

[kind crypt]

Also any opinions, || panth 5 first or all achievements (except steel soul) ||

[frosty island]

Well actually

Nvm it

[polar flicker]

The latter is easier

[frosty island]

All achieve AND ss

[kind crypt]

Yeah im doing that currently since i dont wanna do || p5 || 😭

[polar flicker]

|| also all achievements wud include p5||

So u have to do it

[frosty island]

I got that after 179 tries yharon

[polar flicker]

[kind crypt]

Yeah i could get || 61/63 without p5 i think ||

[frosty island]

My 700+ hours on terraria doesn’t fail me

[kind crypt]

But anyway ty ill do the other stuff first

[polar flicker]

|| doubt it cuz u need a seperate file for the steel soul ones ||

[frosty island]

I’ve been all calamity, infernum, Fargo souls, and the god one i forgot the name

And I’ve also no hit nameless deity

[polar flicker]

|| and speedrun ones assuming it's ur first go ||

[frosty island]

That actually an easy boss

[kind crypt]

Cant i just || delete after I did speedrun for example and keep achievement? ||

Or wym

[polar flicker]

Idk wat all this means and prob is off topic

[frosty island]

Indeed

[polar flicker]

|| ye u can delete the file ||

[frosty island]

[polar flicker]

|| just meant if u want 61 achievements u prob have to do one steel soul run||

[kind crypt]

Yeah so doesnt that leave only || defeat radiance and defest hallownest panth ||

[kind crypt]

Ohh yeah

[polar flicker]

Assuming u skip ||p5||

[kind crypt]

Ill have to do it just thought it was gonna be worse than || p5 || but apparently not

Which makes me scared

[polar flicker]

|| steel soul is easier just play super safe ||

There's also a cheese people use by || save quitting close to death ||

[kind crypt]

[glass lagoon]

[frosty island]

||col of fool 3||

[lyric plume]

||I now understand what people meant with fragile greed yesterday||

[grizzled kestrel]

Bro with a paladin build

[bold valve]

[frosty island]

hm

[bold valve]

[glass lagoon]

[frosty island]

[bold valve]

who am i missing here

[bold valve]

that's everything, unless ||dream nail bosses like lost kin count||

[frosty island]

yes

😭

[worn widget]

||you're doing PoP ofc you wanna die||

[bold valve]

aurghhhh fine

shoulda made me fight him before ||opening the pantheon||

[frosty island]

lmao

[frosty island]

also ||lost kin doesnt give anything btw im js saying yes as in you might have miss some a dream warior||

shoulda specify

[bold valve]

||ok if it's dream warrior i beat them all||

[frosty island]

ykw ||https://hollowknightchecklist.com/||

[bold valve]

i meant specifically the ||rematch bosses||

[bold valve]

oo intersting

[primal ibex]

it gives ||essence||

[tranquil hinge]

I am looking for a recommended charm load out for ||soul master||, I currently have ||stalward shell, soul catcher, shaman stone, dash master, sprint master, long nail, heavy blow, steady body, spell twister, quick focus, lifeblood heart|| I also have ||Wayward Compass, and gathering swarm|| but those are modded to always be on, I have 6 ||notches||, and 7 ||masks|| as well

[tacit sable]

holy moly chat I think im about to get ||monarch of wings||, I just got to ||ancient basin|| and I just kept going foward without roaming the stuff untill I reached this familiar spot, I think its the part where I fight...

[frosty island]

well yea but im talking abt percentage

[tacit sable]

OH CRAP YES IT IS

[frosty island]

spoile ryour img

lol

but goodluck

[tacit sable]

I spoiled it

[frosty island]

strange

it sint for me

but wtv

[primal ibex]

||shaman stone, spell twister||

[bold valve]

||shoulda just spoilered the whole thing bro, anyw i'd do long nail quick focus and fill in the rest with whatever||

[worn widget]

||charms dont really matter, just focus on getting 1 hit every time you can. dont force the aggression. spells also make you quite vulnerable when casting so keep that in mind. if i had to choose, i'd use long nail shaman stone and grubsong||

[primal ibex]

||spell twister not soul catcher||

[bold valve]

||nail build all the way, all the soul i use goes back to my health||

[worn widget]

||ah you're right, didnt see they had spell twister||

[primal ibex]

remove that mod bc there will be a lot of times when you won't need those ||charms|| and need the ||notches||

[tranquil hinge]

Those mods make them free to use, unequipped, just always passively there

[quartz seal]

Is that fatass in ||soul sanctum-city of tears|| just a "uh we dont know how to block to this part of the map from the player so just put a strong enemy that they can beat when they get strong enough"

[primal ibex]

ok

[tacit sable]

oh got him on my 4th try, kinda easy

[frosty island]

charmless hitless all bind ||p5|| run

[tacit sable]

yessirr

[limber wren]

||It's been a while since I played and I'm helping my bf complete HK is there anything that happens if you beat THK without voidheart but do have awakened dream nail, or is the nail only so you can get into the kingsmould||

[prisma igloo]

||the awakened nail is for a few things. The only important one is the kingsmold||

[tacit sable]

||LOST KIN? WTH||

[prisma igloo]

Also to answer your question. ||it's a different ending if you have void heart or not going into the fight||

[prisma igloo]

Yup

[frosty island]

LMAO

[primal ibex]

endgame boss

[tacit sable]

frl?

meaning I cant beat him now?

[prisma igloo]

God gamers can kill them right after ||broken vessel||

[primal ibex]

technically you can

[tacit sable]

bettt

[prisma igloo]

But

[tacit sable]

dw chat I got this

[primal ibex]

good luck, you don't got this

[prisma igloo]

If you struggled with bv you should really wait on lk

[crude ravine]

||Anyone know how to beat Traitor Lord?||

[limber wren]

||Yah, I got that, that's just the regular ending in which the vessel absorbs the radiance and hornet becoms the dreamer, my main concern was is there and ending with only awakened dreamnail and not voidheart, that was different from no dream nail (and ofc no voidheart) which you answered, ty||

[prisma igloo]

Stay close to them and pogo

[prisma igloo]

||Shade dash through their white wall||

[quartz seal]

again bc original message got burried: Is that fatass in ||soul sanctum-city of tears|| just a "uh we dont know how to block to this part of the map from the player so just put a strong enemy that they can beat when they get strong enough"

[crude ravine]

Thank you

[worn widget]

jump away during the pogo as well ||in case he does the jumping attack||

[primal ibex]

stay close and ||shade cloak|| through almost every attack

[limber wren]

You mean ||soul master?|| Because no, he's fairly easy to beat

[prisma igloo]

Nah. ||void heart. 1 ending is hornet sealed. 1 ending radiance dies. No void heart is when the vessel absorbs the infection||

[crude ravine]

Thank you everyone, I’ll definitely be able to beat him now. Thank you

[prisma igloo]

Ye

[worn widget]

good luck

[crude ravine]

Thank you

[prisma igloo]

But no you need ||awakened dream nail to get void heart. The nail itself won't change anything||

[limber wren]

||ah wait, what's the requirement for hornet sealed (sealed siblinggs ending?) Is that having voidheart but not going Into the dream to kill radiance||

[limber wren]

Sweet ty

[prisma igloo]

Mhm

[limber wren]

Alr awesome ||so the only ending that gets locked off out of those is the pre voidheart one once you get voidheart||

[quartz seal]

no way he is easy according to you i had been trying to kill him for longer than even ||hornet||

[prisma igloo]

Yes. It takes like 4h to beat the game quickly tho

Dw

[primal ibex]

which attack specifically do you need help with

[limber wren]

||He can be very confusing main thing is standing under him when he tries to shoot you and then pogoing on him when he runs across the arena, when he does the 4 orbs spinning attack you can heal in the middle of the arena, be careful of the fakeout death and you got it!!||

[worn widget]

||focus on dodging and stay on the ground, only jump when necessary(you can just walk for the homing projectiles) ||

[quartz seal]

i can barely ||pogo static elements so no way that i could pogo on him||

[worn widget]

||its a long boss fight with a really horrendous run back, be patient and dont be greedy with hits||

[prisma igloo]

It's really easy to pogo on the attack where he just ||hovers over the ground, going forward||

[limber wren]

||That's alright, just try to go over with one pogo then get your hits in with his other openings, he's super susceptible to howling wraith so use that a lot||

[worn widget]

||i mean as a new player without monarch wings, i can see why that can be an issue||

[prisma igloo]

Also keep in mind there's no cheat code to beating him. Just skill and maybe a little luck

[quartz seal]

how am i supposed to get enough verticality

[prisma igloo]

Holding jump should be high enough

Down slash as soon as a part of him is below you

[worn widget]

||hold jump and pogo, if you cant pogo or not confident enough to pogo, just dash away the opposite direction he's going||

[prisma igloo]

Or jump over him and ||dash|| too

That works

[zenith carbon]

How do I get through this 😭

[prisma igloo]

Good timing

That's it tbh

[errant prairie]

what charm build do i use for ||hornet 2||?

[tacit sable]

what yall think the odds of me beating lk?

[distant sentinel]

guys can i play silksong before hollow knight

[prisma igloo]

If you struggled with bv you won't kill them i promise

[prisma igloo]

You seriously shouldn't

It's an option

But I don't recommend it

[distant sentinel]

||soul master says otherwise||

😭

[errant prairie]

if you struggle in hk, ss would be worse

[prisma igloo]

||shaman mark of pride spill twister grub song works||

[errant prairie]

👍

[distant sentinel]

|| is soul master that hard or am i bad||

[prisma igloo]

Dude everything in silksong is harder then hk

I don't think you should play it first

[prisma igloo]

He's relatively easy when you get good at the game

Difficult for newer ppl

[worn widget]

||he's hard especially with low upgrades and new players||

[frosty island]

What now

[distant sentinel]

i have upgraded || my nail|| || found 1 mask shard accidentally|| ||is there aynthing else i can do||

[frosty island]

There ALOT

[prisma igloo]

Um. Not really.

You unlock more stuff after him somewhat

[distant sentinel]

should i get the || shaman stone||

[frosty island]

Yes

[prisma igloo]

Yes

Op

[distant sentinel]

i only have ||4 notches||

[prisma igloo]

That's fine

[prisma igloo]

||Compass and shaman||

[distant sentinel]

||i found this thorn kind of charm that hits enemies while ure being attacked||

[spice minnow]

[prisma igloo]

It's decent

[distant sentinel]

[prisma igloo]

Rarely useful though

[distant sentinel]

[spice minnow]

yes

[prisma igloo]

Good charm

[distant sentinel]

||imma sell my journal||

[errant prairie]

[prisma igloo]

They're useless yeah

||Just sell||

[distant sentinel]

[prisma igloo]

Sick

[spice minnow]

[distant sentinel]

[prisma igloo]

Get your money

[distant sentinel]

[prisma igloo]

Bruh

[distant sentinel]

not even twice 5 times in a row

[spice minnow]

[distant sentinel]

o7

[errant prairie]

i think once u get ||mantis lord|| and ||soul master|| down, you should be decent at the basics of the game

[distant sentinel]

i should really get the ||bank||

[distant sentinel]

[spice minnow]

[distant sentinel]

[prisma igloo]

Oh

[spice minnow]

isnt that a statue thing

[prisma igloo]

Open it up

[thick wing]

I can't yet but what even is that

[prisma igloo]

||You use it access godhome as you said||

[errant prairie]

||basically allows u to rechallenge bosses, purely combat||

[spice minnow]

and the last % 😭

[thick wing]

Late game probably right?

[spice minnow]

yeah

[thick wing]

Does it get marked on the map?

[primal ibex]

post game

[spice minnow]

as much late game as u can get basically

[thick wing]

After all ||3 endings or just one?||

[errant prairie]

unless u just wanna chill w ||mantis lords|| again

[primal ibex]

[prisma igloo]

[prisma igloo]

Pretty good pace.

Better then most I've seen on here

[errant prairie]

[spice minnow]

i spent time exploring so i got 1st ending in like 40h

[distant sentinel]

i saw someone on || greenpath|| for over 17 hours

[prisma igloo]

That's just..

[errant prairie]

16 hours in, || done monarch wings atm||

[prisma igloo]

You can beat the game without it tho

[distant sentinel]

||i die while going to soul master||
