||With a nail build you’ll just have to spam up slashes instead. Always DDark when she spawns on you before going to town||
k, thanks
i interacted with the statue thing and it just said ||void given focus||
||It’s just a trophy||
Yeah so ||after you beat every boss on attuned/ascended/radiant smth appears||
ok cool
||Are there any particular attack combos you struggle with?||
|| it’s those blades that come flying from the side combined with literally anything else, probably just a practice thing tho ||
Ima go be a big back to celebrate ||106% with the Patheon ending|| under 20 hours
||She doesn’t mix attacks until they reach the middle of the arena||
||Dodge them before they do, or DDark right as they do||
||The second set of blades, I mean||
I always forget || ddark || imma try that again tomorrow, maybe I’ll finally beat || p5 ||
@twilit wing do you have to collect every item and defeat every boss for 112%?
i just need to defeat ||white defender, hollow knight and radiance||
||Those bosses do not count towards percent||
||You need every movement ability, nail art, charm, spell(and upgraded spell), nail upgrade, dream nail upgrade, all 3 colosseum trials, the first four pantheons, and a select set of bosses||
|| there’s a website that acts as a checklist for 112% ||
||Oh and every mask shard and vessel fragment||
any tips for the ||TM grimm|| floor spikes?
heal then
||You just need to practice, the only advice is to stand between them but im sure you figured out that that’s what you’re meant to do. Just gotta get used to the speed||
wow the fire above him whenever he releases the projectiles is unfair...
||Which part of the fight are you struggling with? I assure you nothing about the fight is unfair.||
mostly: the part where he turns into a bubble usually undoes the three heals I get in when he turns into bats
||guys im hving trouble with elder baldur? any tips||
did you get ||the spell||?
with any boss that you fight, i just recommend to fight the boss simply so you can understand the moveset and progressively learn how to dodge him, to the point where you can get a few hits in the boss without messing up
wdym, vengul?
alr ty
@heavy isle yes
|| Before the fight with the hollow knight how do you fight the dream sisters? I got past the watcher Knights and then met one of the sisters, used my dream nail and in the black egg one of the parts fell off, is that it?? ||
||there should be more masks similar to the one u beat after the watcher knights around the map, go there||
yes
thats it
do that three times and ||black egg|| opens up
||sisters||?
I see
|| yea there are 3 dream sisters ||
So there's no combat or anything?
thats what ||watcher knights|| was
that was ||lurien, the watcher||.
you still gotta do ||monomon the teacher in fungal wastes||, probably after getting ||shade cloak||.
Is there something like that for the other 2 as well?
and ||herrah the beast|| in ||deepnest||
Alr thx guyss
most people do that with ||tear||, thats way easier to get
also unnecessary spoilers
Oh god || deepest ||
yep! have fun!
I unlocked ||The hollow knight|| what charms should I use
show ur charm inventory
||dont overcharm except in specific scenarios, and never ever use heavy blow lmao
od say ur best bet rn for pure nail would be qslash , mop and smth like longnail, or grubsong and steady body but overall quick slash and shaman for sure, do last two u can run spell twister, longnail, or grubsong and steady body||
||Dont try to attack him, just go to the edge of the arena and jump over bullets||
I know. I don't fall down in time to jump for the next set.
Will these fit into my 8 ||notches||
should do
||You have to kind of move horizontally while you’re jumping.||
K thx
||Once you’re over one set, start moving back to the edge of the arena to give yourself more time||
ok!
other than that, he definitely seems beatable
have you tried using it yet?
its downsides become quickly obvious once you start playing
Uh
I use it a lot
And I haven’t seen a downside yet
So I’m wondering
Like what does it do
OH
I THOUGJT THAT WAS NORMAL
IVE BEEN PLAYING LIKE THAT THE WHOLE TIME
😭
skull
OHHHHHHHHH
||you will love silksong||
||already did p1 all bindings (separated) and im doing p2 now any tips?||
I PLAYED ||KINGDOMS EDGE HORNET AND WATCHER KNIGHTS AND SOUL MASTER AND BROKEN VESSEL AND DUNG DEFENDER AND SOUL MASTERS LIKE THAT||
I ATTEMPTED ||TROOP MASTER GRIMM AND THK LIKE THAT||
||2 is still ez 3 is where problems start cuz of maybe galien and stupid zote||
Like what
Hardmode hk lol
I DIDNT KNOW
its not easy for me
What's wrong bro what did u do
I didn’t know ||overcharmed made you take double damage…||
|| it won't matter that much cuz you're doing them separated ||
oh wow that's insane lol
|| overcharmed% be proud ||
Yeah
I beat a lot of th bosses like that
So
I did good
hollow knight ||charm||less% when
I’m quitting ||overcharmed||
wdym?

I mean it won't be || difficult because you're doing bindings separated anyways ||
I’ve been playing since I had ||3 notches and I have 8 now it’s been a month||
I feel dissapointed in myself
guys how can i go throught the || the platfrom next to the entrance to the path of pain|| ofc iam not doing ||path of pain over my dead body || 😭
I’ve been ||overcharmed since before I had dash||
somone help me...
can you send a photo
E
Do you have any advice for ||radiant absolute radiance|| ? Especially for the 2nd and 3rd phases
2phase u can stay on the middle low plat
And just dodge everything and hit when he come to you
Phase 3 pogo him, when u get offscreen orb can't touch you
Someone pls tell me how I equip the dc tag for this server
on computer just click the top left where it says hollow knight and then click tag or click someone else who uses the tag and clikc adopt tag there
Thx
is it possible to open this door?
nope
whats the closest bench to ||markoth||
||Hornet 2 bench I think||
||Should I do the extra challenges (binds thing) for the life blood in P5...||
It's not necessary but if you think it's too hard you can do ||8 bindings in P1 and P2||
tbh i dont find it worth it
||hornet 2 and nailmaster are pretty equal id say||
just beat em, i used the ||nailmaster|| bench
i originally thought he was in ||greenpath||
planning on doing the ||dlcs|| soon, which of them should i start with?
You should start with ||the Grimm troupe||, it's way easier than ||godhome||
tips for ||markoth p5?||
I knew it would eventually happen but why must I be sentenced to fight ||Traitor Lord|| in the ||pantheons||
actually nvm lmao ||Shade Cloak|| and ||Quick slash|| trivialize that boi
what charms should i use for ||normal grim||
nail build. idk whatever works tbh
not sure if i ask here but ||how long until i finish the game to get started on silksong? im at the dream bosses after killing almost all dream warriors except for one, how much more until im done?||
Salutations, dearest HK-Help, I was pondering upon if Sir ||Cornifer|| is inside the vast area of the "||White Palace||". Thank you.
u arent far to beat game
how much is left? could you write out like. how much more stuff ive gotta do?
i mean u bascially just kill the last one and go fight the final boss
What are you going for, just seeing an ending or full completion
||Warriors|| aren’t needed except for ||True Ending.|| If you just wanna complete it, get the ||Dreamers|| and open the ||Black Egg.|| For ||True ending?|| Not long if you have a lot of ||Essence.||
mmmm.. i'd like to do full completion minus ||PoP|| LMFAOOO
yeah long way
||Pop isnt needed for full completuon||
Salutations. He is not. You are most welcome.
youll take a bit to start sk
||pop|| isn't required : D
IVE GOTTA CHECK how much ||essence|| ive got
Since the game is non linear, I have no idea how much you have left
Probably surely like 20 hours
At least
i wanted to see almost everything so im not sure how far i am but i know im stuck on ||traitor lord||
Can you send an image of your charms and inventory
YEAH hold on lemme hop on
i was stuck on ||tl|| once, have you tried the stinky method?
That makes it a bit easier for us to see how far you are
Whats that?
idrk just keep playing and you can find out if
ig
use ||defenders crest|| and hold the button for ||crystal dash|| while on the wall, about how tall ||tl|| is, he will just keep trying to attack u but cant reach meanwhile the stinky cloud damages him, eventually tho he uses attack that hit you, its pretty much to free 70% of his health gone
|| how do i get percentage to pop up on main menu for a save file||
||Get an ending||
Basically
Ew cheese
alr thanks
||I JUST BEAT P4||
Niceeee
OH CRAP i didnt mean to reply ping you thommie im so sorry!
i didnt realize
forgive me dude its a force of habit to keep it on for other servers
what charms for ||White Palace||
Idk bro
WHAT DO I DO
What all do you have
check a playthough
What’s the image it’s not losing
Describe it
Oh it loaded
Jump over it
Where do I use this
There’s a ||tram|| between ||Deepnest, ancient basin and kingdoms edge|| and ||forgotten crossroads and resting grounds||
Do I use the ||tram pass|| to get ||dream nail||?
If you want to you totally can
There are many ways
What is the best way? And how do I get to ||crystal peak||?
||you can get to crystal peak by either buying the lumafly lantern from sly or getting a spell in city of tears, both ways you enter from forgotten crossroads||
Also there is no best way
||grub song and deep focus,you are invincible with those||
||who is bro running from||
Ok do you want feedback or something
yo guys i have 2 ||simple keys|| (none of the areas unlocked) and i just beat ||soul master||, is it worth unlocking the ||cave|| in ||dirtmouth|| or nah?
taxes
You’ll find enough for the whole game dw
Use them when you get them
alr ty
sort of i guess i am not going to change it but i just wanted to know peoples thoughts on it
I just beat ||radiance|| after 4 hours of attempts😭
First 3 are kinda ass ngl
It’s personal preference tho

Happens once you do a specific thing
It’s to show the passage of time
where do i get ||pale ore?||
progress, explore, and you'll find it
so i ll just naturally find it as i progress? i dont have to like actively seek it out, right
You wont find it if you dont know where to look
Realistically, its easier to look it up
sure if u wanna spoiler urself
I dont get it with people and spoilers, its a location on a map
...
guys am i trapped at ||crystal peak?|| apparently theres a toll booth to get back into ||crossroads|| except you need ||lantern|| to be able to interact with it which i dont have.... ;-;
Until you get a certain ability there yes
keep exploring
No theres a way out, need ||crsytal dash|| tho
go back the way you came
…i cant
aren’t there two entrances tho
one of them requires ||lantern|| which i dont have
i came through the ||desolate dive|| entrance
there’s a ||crystal dash|| entrance
Above the way you came. Up the vertical shaft then to your next entrance on the left
do any of you guys have charm builds or tips to beat ||hornet sentinel|| bcuz the spikes are so annoying
What charms do you have
Also you can break the spikes
true but I keep dying bcuz she attacks me while I’m breaking them
Screenshot your charms
Yeah was gonna suggest smth but should prolly see the charms first
Ok 1sec
can’t
Why not
on controller
Take a picture of your screen then
takes a while to load
||quickslash, longnail, mark of pride, shaman stone,soul twister, soul catcher, defenders crest, deep focus, quick focus, thorns of agony, grubsong, dashmaster||
there
How many ||notches||
7
||Quick slash shaman stone and grubsong||
Just spoiler the whole message
atp I should
||my spells are d dark and shade soul so i didn’t know if I should spam those or use nail||
Yeah spam those when you can
They are goated
||ddark|| gives i frames btw
HOW MUCH GEO DOES THE|| CRYSTAL HARDER BOSS|| GIVE?
like 6 or 7 hundred
dang it i died right as i killed him :(
What’s the name of the boss you’re talking about?
idk he is the|| bench crystal harder boss guy||
Harder? As in the harder version of that guy?
yes
550 geo and something else
i know but still 550 geo me with my 16876 geo is saden
Ooh do you need recommendations on where to spend it?
sure yn
Screenshot your charms
Ok there’s a secret in ||howling cliffs|| you’ll need to find it
Or I can tell you where it is
you mean where ||hornet ||is?
No
Other side
how ||do|| i break this wall in left side?
oh ||grimm|| yeah i was planning to upgrade my charms but the problem is i don't know whats gonna happen
Other side
Show inventory
Nothing bad don’t worry
||grimm|| is pretty self contained so you’ll be fine
||tram from ancient basin||
What do I do after getting ||dream nail|| it’s my first play through
Just keep exploring
I suppose
nevermind
how 2 get ||voidheart||?
||dream nail||
||It||
||elder baldur ||
should i use 2700 geo to this?
if ur broke rn do it later when ur rich
should i do it? and what does it give?
Need 3k for the reward
||it needs 3k geo, so do it when u can spare that, its better to spend it elsewhere||
Get 300 more then do it
imo no, thats why im telling u to do it when ur rich
The reward is a ||vessel fragment|| and it costs ||3000 geo|| so honestly save your geo for smth else
once you've bought everything else or if you have a lot of spare geo you can come back and buy it
How do I beat the ||soul warrior|| that spawns ||follys||?
wack wack wack ||shade soul shade soul|| wack wackity wack ||desolate dive|| ggs
I suck at aiming with the ||des dive||
Upgrade it
makes it was bigger and do tons more damage and give you a lot of i frames
anyway for actual tips, ||when he tps above you to dive down, just walk sideways and turn around to get a few smacks. When he dashes at you either jump and pogo or dash through with shade cloak if you have it||
i recommend having ||quick slash and shamans stone|| for this fight as it lets you get in a lot of extra damage
any strategies for ||the radience||
Y'all how did I not know there was just a free ||charm notch|| sitting at the top of ||fungal wastes||
||Struggling with coloseeum of fools 1.
So far, I have been able to beat every boss in the game in under five tries. But I have no idea what to do in colo fools 1. The problem is there doesn't feel like any counterplay to the enemies - for example, primal aspids fly up high in the corner and you cant really dodge their shots without getting hit yourself. Also, I don't know the best way to beat the ant guys and the guys that throw spinny discs. Any tips?||
||you can hit the spinny discs back at them||
||Nail arts and nailmasters glory carry in the colos and use spell twister to save soul||
im struggling with ||the second Hornet fight|| advice please?
Me too gang
||do you prefer spells, nails, or both?||
How'd you get ||black fireball and d-dark||
|| Yeah I have alll 3 nail arts I was using soul cantcher and shaman stone||
Just keep trying ig?
Take it really slow if you need
nail
||soul sanctum elegent door and crystal peak bottom right||
Oh no way I've been missing out
||quickslash, and mop for sure and then spell twister or swap mop for longnail and use shaman stone imo||
i dont wanna ||overcharm||
Oh mb I didnt see that
i guess i can grind and buy a ||charm notch|| if needed
||quickslash for sure and then mop or smth for spells||
Ok so. I'm lost at ||crystal peak|| at this location. It's dark af and I don't have a map. What do I do??
||grubsong|| good?
Yeah it should be
Unless youre gonna no hit it then it will be
Go to where ||quirrel|| is on this map
Get a ||lumafly lantern||
From the small guy for 1.9k?
Alr I'll try
1.8k
Oh
Can't find it as an item? I found the ||rancid egg|| so I thought I'd get it somewhere as well
You gotta buy it but it’s not necessary for this area
Oh
What charms am I missing and how do I obtain them w
How do I get out of this area???
I fell from where ||myla|| is
Can't get up again
||grubberflies elegy, unbreakable heart, quick slash, lifeblood core, jonis blessing, baulder shell, glowing womb, hiveblood, sharp shadow, weaver song, dream catcher, kingsoul|| which one do you want first
You have to get the item here first
What's the most useful?
Or trudge thru the dark room
I’m trying to 100% hollow knight, where should I start?
||quick slash|| probably
Just play the game until you feel like you can’t progress then ask for help
Ok, I’m at like 70% so I will start with charms.
Each is like 1%
Ok thanks
Crown?
How do I get that?
Welp I'll go explore
||crystal heart||
||breakable floor near oros house||
which one is ||oro||
where does this lead in the ||hall of gods?||
This?
yes, that is the ||crystal heart.||
It's a ||charm||?
Oh
ull find out once u ||beat the bosses up||
oh god
||absolute radiance||
does this count as an uncspoiler
u coulda js said ||final boss of p5||
^^
She*
meh its wtv
||Alright I’ve completed as much as I can by myself how in the world are you supposed to radiant these guys||
Wait there are 5 parts??
||practicing them and getting gud. for some of them there are particular strats||
5 ||pantheons|| yes
Oh
😭 🫡 Roger that
do i have to ||radiant|| all of them or can i just ||attuned|| them
if you need help with one of em in particular, i can help u out. i reccommend u dm me about it cuz im not abt to do a full bossguide here though lmao
||u can attune them||
thx
||the reward gets better if its radiant though||
How beat ||radiance||
I need help w/ that too
No
||My advice is let her come to you instead of chasing her across the platforms||
||ok so her attacks are
orbs: the most complex of all attacks, this is solved by dashing under the orbs, or double jumping above em when theyre abt to come at u, this makes them overshoot and hit the ground when they fall.
laser beam: this attack is very slow in normal radiance, so i recommend u js sidestep both, step to the side for the first, then back to where the first one was for the second, and so on for the third.
sword circle: ts one is easy as it has only one sword circle in normal rad too, js jump over it. (ddark when in platforms)
light wall: shade dash thru it. do as early as possible so her attacks dont mesh.
sword wall: jump and dash thru the holes in the wall. shade dash thru any part if desperate.
sword rain: get between the holes, in emergency cases u can get between the smaller holes.
for platforms, ure gonna want to stay on the bottom 3 and attack only when she comes there, otherwise stay there, dodge and hoard soul to heal if needed.
climb ure gonna wanna double jump when the ray actually hits and be patient + careful.
anddd youre done!! (the last phase seen on my video where u have to pogo on her is absrad only, normal radiance dies in 1 hit once u arrived at the top||
this is the full ||radiance|| guide
It took me forever to complete(?) ||city of tears|| and figure out how to get into ||Crystal peak|| wonder how long that's gonna take me
ages
It took me a week to get here...
||Whats the best charm setup for NKG? (All charms)||
||I figured out I can just keep pogoing markoth while he’s floating around the arena and just dodging his spears like he’s the last phase of the radiance, is this viable or am I deranged?||
ure not only deranged ure also stupid (this is a joke before you report me to the authorities)
seriously though thats a horrible strat
i can pass u the actual one in dms if u want
||I can consistently get him to second phase by doing it somehow||
Btw is there a boss in crys?
what if i told you you dont have to worry abt second phase at all
with the right strat
||i just died to attuned zote because i legit pixel perfectly touched his toe/leg nub||
yall got builds for ||radiance?(all charms btw)||
Highly recommend ||shape of unn||
||ure gonna wanna use nailmasters glory, shaman stone, soul eater, soul twister, soul catcher. great slash him until phase 2, then survive his first phase 2 attack and wait for him to do the spinning shield attack. unload ALL your shade souls on him and hes dead||
this is considered the optimal strat for base ||radmarkoth||
it is called the phase 2 skip because you literally dont have to play phase 2 nearly at all
ofc! good luck! ❤️ ❤️
||how many notches||
||all notches, charms, nail 4, max masks, max soul vessels, and all arts||, im just trash at bosses and the freaking projectiles ||radiance|| shoves in the screen
||strength, shaman stone, qslash, then spell twister / nail masters glory / grubsong / steady body
||
I struggled so hard with ||enraged guardian|| last night and I come back today and beat him first try???
thhankss
u were prob js tired twin
gang
skill vs skill
(bro my friend decided to hijack my laptop and my discord, I should lock my laptop first 😭)
||Shaman Stone, Frag/Unbreak Strength, Spell Twister, Mark of Pride/Quick slash||
he doesn't know
also unrelated there is no way to fight ||infected HK in godhome right just pure vessel?||
Is it good
At least when I'm running away from those tall things in ||Royal waterways|| they don't seem to work
busted even (to the point of i think capable of one shotting certain bosses) but only in very specific scenarios
It is very op but extremely difficult to use
yeah that
no way without mods sadly
ah yeah unfortunate i do wish it was like ||THK with the lever for PV||
I am at 70% in hk (first time playing) with 17 hrs
I see that there is a rare speed run achievement to get 100% in 30 hours
Is it possible with the 12 hour time frame I have left?
is ||grey Prince zote|| not in ||p5|| if I didn't fight him in ||p3|| but fought him after beating ||p3||?
And if so is there anyone who can help me?
I think so
Nvm he is 🙁
A shame
he ended my run bru
Pretty sure it's 20 hrs
And u can yes
ah shieks, I thought it was the same as ss
so I went to || city of tears but|| I've decided I wanna fight the || mantis lords|| but there's a barrier on the entrance
can anyone tell me how to get back to ||mantis village||
I think you need to get out ||By stag / Storage Room Elevator||
Or by an ||Ability in City Of Tears||
How to get ||carefree melody||
||did u start grim troupe||
yes
im on ||nkg||
i have to beat him dont i
||if ur fighting nkg its too late to get carefree||
||u gotta banish the troupe before u collect the flame s in that phase||
Holy shit
You can just equip || defenders crest || and afk damage the ||crystal guardian || and kill him
that is the easiest boss in the game
Nah easiest one is ||flukeworm||
not if you cant one shot the things it shoots
Tru
the first time i fought it i could only two shot them so there was like 6 or 7 of them on me at once so i died
I'm trying to || fight the white dung defender and found the cave under the waterways but can't find him, how do I get him to appear ||
Right here
the cave under his arena?
|| u need to kill all the dreamers first ||
guys help me i've finished the game ||110%|| and there's nothing left to do what is the ||last 2%||
|| nkg / banish, ascending the seer, colo 1-3, p1-4, all charms. theres more but is it any of those ||
what is the first one and i've done the rest of the others
that u mentioned
|| the grimm troupe, you complete the dlc by either beating nightmare king grimm or banishing the troupe entirely ||
i've defeated the ||nightmare grimm||
now what to do
|| all upgraded versions of spells, all nail arts, 3 vessels, 9 masks, max nail ? ||
done all of 'em
are u pc?
yes
id try this then || https://reznormichael.github.io/hollow-knight-completion-check ||
afaik this is all for 112 || all masks, all soul fragments, all nail upgrades, all charms, pantheon 1-4, all colloseums, all dreamers, 2400 essence, all story abilities/items, all nail arts, all spells (including the upgraded versions), nkg/banish || so
||Any tips on nightmare king?||
i literally did all of them
check the tracker but if you've used mods thats likely it
try not to heal and focus on dodging bcz he is faster tham before
??
|| you can heal on every single attack if you learn the proper punish, but hes just one of those bosses you gotta learn each move and how to dodge / attack on each move. if you wanna know how to i can say for any particular attack(s) ||
mods can often mess up %, hence why some people have like 114
i tried modding for the skin once
maybe bcz of that??
okay👍
So no healing?
you can on every single attack technically, pretty easily infact except for one
people who say you cant just dont know the fight
Ok
the attacks you can heal on are
||when he raises the pillars of fire after the fourth pillar||
||when he raises spikes||
||in his bat phase||
other ones are better if you dodge or attack
is ||hunter's journal completion important for 112%||
no
and it says that i don't have ||kingsoul|| but i got ||void heart||
it converts to that
so ithink it's done 112%
||trying to get to cornifer in fog canyon, theres black thingy in my way, how do i get to him?||
|| you cant until you get later abilities ||
so i cant get the map until later?
if u send ur inventory i can lyk if you can or not
i can
yeah u cant for a while
If this is your first time in the area then you can't get it until much later
ty
how to i get to fight with the ||second mantis lord version and nosk in the hall of gods||
fight them in || p5 ||
||pantheon of hollownest after you beat all 4 pantheons||
so i can't fight them in the ||hall of gods||
What is the best charms for ||rad||
i'd say use ||shaman stone, quick slash, spell twister, strength||
what do i do in here bro
Thanks
where do you get that

🔹 An unnecessary spoiler is a spoiler (even a tagged one!) that was not directly requested by the user being helped, such as help referencing in-game content that the player has not necessarily reached - Charms build containing Charms they haven’t found, for example. These spoilers, though generally good-intentioned, can harm a player’s experience as any other spoiler would. Remember the game is non-linear; Always make sure to know what a player has and where they’ve reached. A simple screenshot of their map and inventory would tell you all you need to know.
|| crystal peak ||
?
read the tag 
you need a special ability, that area is for later in the game
But he was asking what he have to get
dw abt it for now
come back to it once u get the ability (you will know once u get it)
he was asking what to do there, to which you say its an ability he doesnt have
instead of just saying the ability
Ok
You shouldn't be in ||fog canyon|| by now, this ||ability is locked behind two major bosses which you don't have access to yet||
ur fine! so sorry for ping replying you earlier! also yes i do!
In terms of abilities you are pretty set, its mostly boss fights left (and finding charms). So if you dont struggle too much with boss fights I'd say about 15 - 20 hours. Obv all depends on how smoothly exploring for remaining charms etc goed
Does ||strength|| increase the power of ||Elegy's beams?||
is there anyway to do ||delicateflower|| without suffering
|| start from the end, pick a route and kill all enemies on way to zemer WITHOUT BENCHING, then follow that route and just be careful with the parkour ||
alright thx
I’d recommend go to || forgotten crossroads from blue lake, then go to fog canyon via the secret lake thing (you need ismas tear), then go to the dreamers place and go straight past it to the queens garden ||
this pathing has the least mobs
i have been trying to do that
clear ur road ahead and DO NOT sit on a bench because that respawns them
The ones that respawn are || the small jellyfish, the aspids in crossroad and the flying bush dude from garden ||
alright
and ur good
|| is godhome really as hard as people say ||??
yes
damn, well is it worth it to try and do it?
the games difficulty is exponential
it starts chill, slowly ramps up and the end is an insane climb
i alr beat ||the radiance||
so i think i can do it
the bosses get progressively harder but they aren’t small jumps
..you can ||cheese failed champ||???
will sitting in hotsprings destroy it?
not the bench
but inside the hotspring
nvm it won't
||how to unlock godhome||
stunlock
guys how to unlock ||godhome||
get a ||simplekey|| and use it on ||godseekerstatue|| in ||junkpit||
just finished the first ||speedrun in 4h55|| with a 25% completion now I wanna get the ||100% under 20h|| achievement is it possible in the same save file?
Yeah I think
20h is really chill
Most people get it while they do ||steel soul||
I am actually considering that although I am not very confident lol
||Steel soul||… is not that bad, if you focus on avoiding boss fights and getting as much stuff as possible before going to them, it turns out not too hard
You can also skip a few % since you need ||100 and not 112
So you can forgo colo 3 and like flower quest for the pantheons (you won’t loose in pantheons and other dream fights)||
sounds good then I'll just start a new playthrough on ||steel soul||
||
should i save zote. hes still crying in deepnest||
||I let him die this playthrough xD||
Ah..I forgot ||normal radiance isn't a pushover||
Do you need to beat ||radiance to get 100%?||
if it's your first playthrough then yes
How do i get this ?
you can come back to it later. if you don't know how to reach something, chances are you don't have the necessary abilities yet
|| i have dash ability unlocked is it enough ||
No
Just mark it on your map, once you get an ability that can get you there you'll know. Hint: ||there are about 3 abilities that'll work there||
||But two of those abilities are locked behind the third||
Is this accesable from top or bottom?
guys
Bottom
what build should i use to beat ||traitor lord||
What charms do you have
Where?
|| cdash||
I already got it, but it should be clear
Where is the place where ||grubs|| are collected at? I need the money
Thanks
topleft of cross
Where do I put ||love key||?
||Sharp shadow, shaman stone, soul catcher and grubsong||
In a similarly named tower
|| go right after the Kings station, then up (before you reach kingdoms edge)||
Thanks
||if you haven't unlocked that shortcut yet you'll have to go through kingdoms edge first though||
Yes, but you have to do a skip
Thanks
||charms for soul master pls||
been struggling
||shaman spell twister or shaman soul catcher, use your spell a lot, also thorns of agony hurts you more than it helps you so i wouldnt recommend using it again||
yeah i dont use it, just put it on bc empty slot with my exploration charms
You should keep in mind not to ||follow soul master around much, he teleports quite frequently and thats likely to put you near him after an attack so use those opportunities to strike||
which would be better in the long run? ||also, when does that stupid boss let you heal, if at all||
-# yeah well i wouldnt recommend it at all even for exploration
||use grubsong instead for that, an empty slot is usually better than thorns of agony||
||spell twister is helpful because it lets you use more spell while making them cost less which makes it so you still have reserves for a heal after shooting which is a great offensive method, soul catcher just increases your soul gain which is good if you cannot reliably get soul or arent using as many spells, both are good but id prefer spell twister for the potential firepower if youre willing to use spells||
||you can find a pretty easy heal spot when he glides across the screen with energy orbs circling around, you can do it either behind him if youre close to the wall he started the attack on, or in the center of the arena when the orbs are coming back since they can not hit you there||
is there any way i can get 2 ||notches || rn
Which 2 did u get
||you can explore around and see if you can get and buy enough charms for the next notch but otherwise no, specially not 2||
uhh not sure
||fungal and salubras first||
Makes sense
Yeah the only way I can think of is to buy them
probably yeah
🔹 An unnecessary spoiler is a spoiler (even a tagged one!) that was not directly requested by the user being helped, such as help referencing in-game content that the player has not necessarily reached - Charms build containing Charms they haven’t found, for example. These spoilers, though generally good-intentioned, can harm a player’s experience as any other spoiler would. Remember the game is non-linear; Always make sure to know what a player has and where they’ve reached. A simple screenshot of their map and inventory would tell you all you need to know.
yeah havent really gotten that
Any tips on what to spend 9000 geo?
Im looking to upgrade myself before fightig few bosses
grab 9k more :^)
otherwise ||sly||
||nail since the last upgrades are expensive
And buy things from sly or leg eater||
I dont think i have unlocked ||leg eater but ive heard about a bank account scammer somwhere that you can insert geo and kill her then get more geo and with fragile greed you get even more geo||
I don't think ||greed|| works on her but ||leg eater is where you get fragile greed from||
Any tips to beat || the hive knight||?
Oh then nvm i know where he is
How much geo can i insert to that scammer lady
treat it like ||hornet||, you can dodge most attacks by jumping over them and ||pogoing it while it dashes||
4500 I think
K thx
When I can use ||ddark on abrad everytime I try ddark I get hit so I got used to not using it during the fight||
shes 10x harder without it
Yea I know but when should I use it
How tf do i ||leave crystal peak without the lantern||
I use it on ||the spikes on the floor||
Just for that?
there's two exits, one requires ||cdash and the other a small trek in the dark||
that frees up half the arena
What exit requires cdas
|| on ground stage you use it mostly to destroy spikes. so for example on horizontal swords you can ddark to take out spikes and simultaneously iframe them, or if you're less confident with orbs its good to ddark them but 9/10 times its to destroy spikes.
In plats its so important, use it if you arent confident in dodging an orb again, but the main way is when you are standing inside absrad and she uses a burst attack (where she glows and does spiral lights or swords) you can just ddark and upslash with the iframes to 2 cycle her (1 cycle in fury / lucky). the other thing in plats to ddark is the big wall of light, if you are halfway or further then she can overlap attacks so shade dash is risky and as such is better to ddark it. then lastly if she uses sword burst (spiral swords) while in an adjacent platform: ddark, its so hard to dodge.
in climb and final stage its literally just if you know you're gonna get hit, you wont use it in an ideal run unlike the previous examples ||
top left where you ||get the map||
Oh ok ty

||Did you try crystal dashing||
Where was the lady that ||was selling charms? I mean the slots||
||bottom right of crossroads||
Not again this place 😭
||peak||
Has anyone got advice for ||radiant pure vessel||
aint really any general advice for him, just gotta learn how to punish all of his moves and how to react to them
if theres an attack in particular i can help
The dagger throw one
|| shade dash through it (you shouldnt be using shade dash enough to where it can be off cd) and then hit him only once or twice depending on how quick you dashed / how close you were. The reason for that is if he does triple swipe it can be really hard to pogo from that distance and obv u cant shade dash it so after 1/2 hits get a lil distance and also watch for it. The other reason is if he counters then you cant shade dash and pogoing the counter is unnecessarily hard and not worth it in that scenario ||
Tldr || shade dash through, hit 1-2 times ||
Ty
Big help lol
Just @ me if you got any questions on him
||okay so when doing the grimm troupe dlc if you give the npc all breakable charms then banish the troupe, what happens||
Drops on the ground afaik
einer deutsch und kann mir ghelfeb

yep got it thanks!
how to easily kill ||soul master||
|| howling wraiths || is goated in this fight as he stays in the air most of the time
How do I get a lot of geo
Show your map
Oh then
Then ||colo 2||
I hae activated the || grimm troupe and grimm gave me the charm but now what do i have to do to fight him?||?
Go collect ||the flames||
||colo trial 2||
I already completed that
They ain visible on my map
They're on the map when you ||equip grimchild||
Do it over and over
|| find the 3 flames they will be marked on your map when equipping grimmchild charm ||
You can do them again
How much does it give
2000
Oh i need to equip it
||what happens when I give the lady at the Troupe a charm and now she demands 12k||
||it will make the charm unbreakable||
|| it becomes unbreakable ||
It'll become ||unbreakable||
I think he got the memo chat
Ajgdisk
Okie
I'm so slow
No really?
But do I have to do that with all 3?
yes
If you want
It's not required but you can
its all optional but def worth it
I have || unbreakable heart and unbreakable strength and I don’t really need unbreakable greed so it’s fragile rn. Should i make it unbreakable? Is it needed for 112%?||
No but why not it's cheap
|| not needed, just helpful ||
It does not need to be ||unbreakable to count for 112%||
As long as it's in your inventory
I am poor
it's not needed but if you're gonna be playing on that save, as someone who only ||has unbreakable strength|| and kinda regrets it, I say do all
there's ways to get the money quickly
Then how did u make || strength unbreakable and heart too ||
||best charms for colo 2?||
Who is using ||fragile greed|| enough to regret not making it ||unbreakable||
do you use ||spells||
it just looks off when you've done everything but you can't do that anymore
It looks nicer in the inventory
||which charms should I use for Colo 2?||
Sold the || kings idol|| and all to the buyer and grinded || colo 2||. But i am lazy to do it now
there is a way that's slightly slower than ||colo 2|| but a lot more mindless
|| shaman stone nailmasters glory soul catcher and mark of pride ||
||guys i just got 112% im so happy||
Which?
|| you only have to do it 4 times to get unbreakable greed that's nothing lol ||
for ||colo ||your main objective should be to one shot everything
So using ||nail arts and spells is a must, so you put on shaman stone and nail master glory, as for the remaining notches it depends, grubsong is amazing in colo, dreamwielder while it may seem niche can let you get back up to full soul by farming the last enemy of any given wave, mark of pride can be good, as is every other soul gathering charm (spell twister, soul catcher…) ||
I just did it 4 times for || unbreakable heart|| 🙂
go to the bottom of ||kings pass||, enter the area to the right, kill the jumping guys, go back left, and re-enter the area to the right since they respawn without ||benching||
||I use soul eater, m.o.p and shaman stone||
Not the right area
Is that good too?
|| how to kill soul master ||
|| soul eater is way too much notches ||
by beating him up
Yea i have seen that one
is there any easier way
it's fairly mindless
cause i have been hard stuck
Anyone got a charm build for late game exploring?
||Hopper|| farming here is fastest
Boring though
This geo collection loop I devised should be faster than any other method you find on YouTube, except that OOB one I posted the other day (but this one's much easier). Soul is self sustaining. Rate of gain will be in the neighbourhood of 715 geo per minute give or take a nickel. Charm loadout is shown at the end of the clip but it's NMG Twister ...
Be more patient || use more spells and try to do an attempt where you only dodge his moves then try putting in some attacks ||
|| dream gate|| is the best thing in hk
But this is the fastest geo grind possible
Indeed only good for || a few bosses tho ||
(Well glitchless
)
I mean yea but still helpful
Whats the way with glitches
the dreaded ||flower quest||
Delicate
||dream gate|| is useful tho, it's a quick way to travel
Best build for late game exploration?
|| dashmaster sprint master quick slash gathering swarm and compass maybe shaman or strength if you want some more power ||
This speedrun was really fun to plan and even more fun to execute! Huge thanks again to @Blair514 for discovering this silly trick, literally couldn't have done this without it. Also, decided to try a new editing format (a video thats substantially less than 10 min is hard for me lol), let me know what you think!
Socials:
I tweet here! https://...
That’s kindof a weird question
Good late game charms are ||strength, shaman, mop, soul related charms…
You can remove one of those for compass if you want, but what else would you want to use ?
Sprintmaster, carefree and shit just don’t provide anything of value||
exploration or platforming?
god DAMN
Not ||path of pain level||
skong coming out so late really did something to the hk community
someone german and can help me
Server language is English
is ||shade soul|| after the ||elegant key|| door enemy?

thats good to know
gotta do that then
whats the general damage increase of this?
endgame spoiler: ||is my charm build good for the radiance? and i need tips for stage 3 and 4 pls i always beat stage 1,2 but then it gets messy||
Doubled
||i barely survive stage 1,2 with 3 hearts||
insane
I’d suggest having ||quick slash instead of heart/spell twister + grubsong||
But it is good
should I accept ||grey mourners gift||
Though charms alone won’t do everything, this is still just a hard fight
||quick slash is never useful for radiance as i always have to jump for every nail attack- right?||
It doesn’t matter you can get lots of ‘em
It’s really useful for the platform phase
nothing gets gated if i accept or deny?
where do i go to enter ||deepnest||
||ohh thanks ill try qslash||
||Shaman Stone
Spell Twister
Soul Eater or Soul Catcher
Quick Focus|| use this
You can get there from ||fog canyon or fungal wastes||
thanks, no ||unbreakl strength?||
is it locked behind anything like ||shade cloak|| or anything like that
No you just gotta beat ||Mantis Village boss (so Mantis Claw ig)||
oh i didnt kill ||mantis lords|| yet
gotta do that ig
ass build for ||radiance||
Do that
The reward's good
can someone show me how to get more life
You just gotta find it
does it increase nail speed/dmg?
I would do ||strenght, mop, shaman and catcher||
||charm for range||
You can collect ||masks in the game. When you have four you gain an extra life||
|| how many hits does traitorlord take from channeling nail? also can I get the next upgrade before beating him? ||
||you can get every nail upgrade before beating him I believe||
