@plain panther

[vital prism]

I died on 3rd attempt of ||mantis lords||, i got to upgrade my nails and get two offensive charms.

[fading halo]

You need to move around || crossroads in a circle starting from the top then left then bottom then right then up and ending in like the middle.||

[plain panther]

||That's so hard to do for me 🥀 he keeps getting my ass with the slash attack he does|| 💀

[fading halo]

If you are fighting him that early it's normall that he's very hard

[vital prism]

Yea, but it's slow with my rusty nails.

[fading halo]

?

[vital prism]

I hadn't upgraded my nail yet

[fading halo]

I think you replied to the wrong message?

[vital prism]

Maybe.

but feel like it's half by mistake and half by head up

[plain panther]

@fading halo ||oh shit wait I have vengeful spirit, i thought you were talking about the shadowy blast spell thing||

[fading halo]

Dang you might be cooked. Yeah just try to get used to what the other guy said then.

[plain panther]

How many times do I need to hit him?

[fading halo]

And if it's too hard you can always come back overgeared

[fading halo]

What nail?

[plain panther]

||Guess it's long needle mark of pride glowing womb baldur shell time 💀||

[plain panther]

I upgraded it twice

[fading halo]

Ok your cooked...

[plain panther]

Ikr

[fading halo]

||Don't use those charms. If you get used to the range your muscle memory will get cooked for later.||

[plain panther]

Btw I haven't really fought against him that many times because I got ragebaited and quit the game when i died to him

[fading halo]

You need to hit him like 30 times btw

[vital prism]

is flame wizard basically a ||Zote|| at this point?

[plain panther]

Nooo let me ||use glowing womb|| atleast it's so fun

[plain panther]

FU-

[fading halo]

Don't be mean like that man.

[orchid flower]

I didn’t realize people used ||Glowing Womb||

[vital prism]

Oh sorry.

[fading halo]

It's top 3 worst charms in the whole game 💀 you can't heal well when u use it

[plain panther]

||Zote the mighty||**

[orchid flower]

It kinda seems like it’d only be a debuff

[vital prism]

Actually, more like it is

[fading halo]

Yeah

[orchid flower]

Since you can’t heal and it does less damage ||per soul than your spells||

[vague fern]

it is

[plain panther]

Nah I am chill with it don't worry

[plain panther]

||Would you not love your son even if he was shit at everything?||

[fading halo]

I would throw out the talisman that made me hallucinate I have 10 sons. Yk

10 exploding sons to be accurate

[plain panther]

@vital prism ||jokes on you, I 'zote the mighty', defeated mantis trio long ago with my shitty charm combo||

[vital prism]

Ya

[vital prism]

how many attempts....?

[fading halo]

HOW DO YOU BEAT THEM BUT STRUGGLE ON ONE OVERWEIGHT SPIDERR?????

[plain panther]

(Explosive) Cherry on top

[plain panther]

I have no fucking clue man

[plain panther]

Attempt=<5

[bright lake]

What ||overcharms|| should I use for ||radiant abs rad||

[plain panther]

Don't remember

[bright lake]

Any help would be greatly appreciated ^^

[plain panther]

||Overcharm is so funny to me||

[vague fern]

|| strength qslash shaman sbody mop/eater ||

[orchid flower]

||Soul Eater||

[fading halo]

|| shaman, strenght, quickslash, any 1 notch, soul eater ||

[bright lake]

Huh why

[plain panther]

(I mean less than or equal to 5)

[orchid flower]

Definitely ||overcharm soul eater||

You wanna have unlimited ||DDark|| in that fight

[bright lake]

Is ||sbody|| rlly that good :0

[vague fern]

4th best charm in the game (||assuming you run qslash||)

[fading halo]

|| shriek on top||

[plain panther]

||The Lil guy carries so many charms that npcs whoope him harder ||

[fading halo]

Not for her but in general it's op op

[fading halo]

Debatable I would put it higher

[vague fern]

as in top 3?

crazy

[plain panther]

@vital prism how do you feel about that 😂

[vital prism]

Eh, it's just good player

[bright lake]

Damn does the lack of knockback rlly affect performance?
I only use it on bosses like ||white defender and pv||

[vital prism]

WAIT, WHERE TF IS MY SOUL?

[plain panther]

What do you mean by that?

[vital prism]

i mean player with good skill

[fading halo]

|| it's a game changer for most bosses radiance is not one of them tho ||

[plain panther]

||https://tenor.com/view/baby-laugh-ai-baby-babyfryingme-baby-sob-folk-gif-18221933230434867320||
He ate it all and turned white (it's a gif btw)

[vital prism]

i died on starting point, i returned and there's no ||shade||. where tf is this

[plain panther]

Who

[vital prism]

Including you.

[plain panther]

Top 10 hollow knight pains

[bright lake]

The thing about ||abs rad|| tho is that she appears on top of you most of the time which would require you to slash upwards

[vital prism]

Found it anyway

[vague fern]

facedance

[orchid flower]

I haven’t worn a charm in 37 years

[bright lake]

whats that?

[plain panther]

No way you calling me skilled, @fading halo look💀

[orchid flower]

You can get on her face and do like 5 consecutive hits quickly

[fading halo]

|| zote special NR. 1 bragging ||

[vague fern]

long explanation but basically by alternating sideslashes with pogos/upslashes (and ideally nail turns) you deal alot more damage than just upslashing

[plain panther]

||Zote the goat, the mighty the messiah 🗣️ 🔥||

[fading halo]

The 🔥wizard 🔥

[plain panther]

[bright lake]

I can imagine this being especially useful during her ||first phase|| what about the other phases tho

[vague fern]

super useful in || plats||, pretty pointless for last 2

[fading halo]

It's not rlly usefull unless going for speed imo.

[vague fern]

in || plats|| its useful for everyone, in grounded it requires skill but still helps

you could argue || grubsong || > in grounded if ur new but its pointless in || rad|| anyways

[plain panther]

@fading halo ||can I please use the shitty charm combo again to defeat overweight spider?||

[orchid flower]

Unfortunately it’s not super effective in ||AB||, unless I’ve just not adjusted properly to the lack of ||qslash||

[fading halo]

|| It's just harder than waiting for her to come above || especially in || radiant it's way too risky || unless your rlly good at it ofc.

[fading halo]

Denied

[vague fern]

wdym? you do it when shes on you but after her attack ends

[plain panther]

Nooooo

[vague fern]

you can just willy nilly sideslash and upslash and the dps will always be higher, even if you cant facedance properly

[vague fern]

its not realistically possible without || sbody || so yeah

[vital prism]

how i am supposed to reach there?

[shut sparrow]

from below

[orchid flower]

Do you have recommendations for how to deal damage? The attempts I’ve done have never left phase 2 cause it just takes forever

[vague fern]

2 as in || plats|| ?

[plain panther]

Find another path that leads there

[orchid flower]

As in spikes

[fading halo]

Id rather || shriek ||

[bright lake]

Is it better than upward slashing her on a platform tho? The way I see it it's only useful when you're out of range from a platform

[vital prism]

ik, i tired but i failed to get there by last bit (fell into thorn)

[vital prism]

ik, i tired but i failed to get there by last bit (fell into thorn)

[vague fern]

its mostly from || shrieks||, you can do so on || sword burst, 2x (in ab, its more with more soul) on sword burst, and once after any default attack if you dodge early ||

[fading halo]

No it gives like 5% extra damage realistically

[vague fern]

less dmg

but fair

[fading halo]

No?

[vague fern]

yes..

also riskier, costs || soul|| and other things

you do it as she ends the attack and then facedance

[fading halo]

|| shriek does more damage than nail spam||

[vague fern]

it doesnt do more than face dancing

you can do the math

but like i said there are other cons

[fading halo]

Ok gimme a sec

[shut sparrow]

||radiance|| discussion

[bright lake]

Ou damn but do you think it's worth learning facedance for her first phase?

[vague fern]

also you lose soul || for ddark|| which is the main thing

[vital prism]

secondly, i need return once i got ability to "fall and smash"?

[bright lake]

Cuz that's where I die the most

[vague fern]

but check a top ||anyrad|| player and do the math @fading halo

the dmg is disgusting

[shut sparrow]

I'm a top ||anyrad|| player imo

[vague fern]

agree

and hii ||n||onsenf

havent seen you in a minute

[shut sparrow]

hello!

[fading halo]

What I do is || like 3 slashes then dark when she does nails then slashes again into shriek when she's finished ||

[shut sparrow]

exams

[vague fern]

yeah no thats great

but constant || shriek|| is worse than facedancing

|| shriek|| is best at the very start or very end because of how the stun works

[vague fern]

eek

[plain panther]

Yes

[fading halo]

Let's see

[plain panther]

You haven't got it yet?

[bright lake]

I kinda get it cuz it locks you in the animation

[vital prism]

dude i'm on early game

[shut sparrow]

3 to go

[vague fern]

still 3???

[vague fern]

look at like taly doing it

[gray aurora]

||why doesnt zote appear in the first trial of collo of fools||

[vital prism]

Still fighting ||Mantis lords||.

[bright lake]

||you didn't save him in crossroads or deepnest||

[plain panther]

||Did you save him in deepnest? 💀 ||

[vital prism]

Because ||Zote brag about being heroic so much that they consider Zote can fight in third trial of collo of fools.||

[shut sparrow]

yep

[plain panther]

Really?

[vague fern]

wow thats crazy

[plain panther]

@fading halo ||btw was that teleporting bomber boss fight harder than brooding mawlek?||

[vital prism]

Finally got first health fragment!

[gray aurora]

of course hes in ||deepnest||

where in ||deepnest||

[fading halo]

Who? || Soul master || ?

[thick wing]

Near || failed tramway ||

[plain panther]

Yup

[candid yarrow]

yo

whats the best way to earn geo

[ashen tiger]

wow this game is nostalgic i used to play ts like a month ago

[plain panther]

It's a shame that I don't remember the character's names

[thick wing]

|| Colo trial 2 ||

[vital prism]

Murder every infected in sight.

[candid yarrow]

how do i do the click to show thing

i dont want to spoil other ppl

[vital prism]

use ||

[candid yarrow]

|hello|

[vital prism]

no, double

[candid yarrow]

||hello||

[bright lake]

I'll try experimenting this thanks

[thick wing]

|| your text ||

[candid yarrow]

aight

[vital prism]

Good.

[candid yarrow]

|| how do i use flukenest in a broken way ||

i cant figure out how to

[vital prism]

what is point of this?

[vague fern]

#speedrunning or speedrunning discord, theres lots of resources on it.
really frank answer: its like a shotgun

[plain panther]

||Get the charm that attracts geo and then mercilessly killing every moving organism in sight.||

[fading halo]

|| @vague fern you need 1 second of perfect nail turnaround slashes to deal 1 shriek of damage, but you can shriek slot more often than once per second. So it does way more damage as long as you have the soul. ||

[vague fern]

more dps

[thick wing]

It keeps you in place while attacking super useful

[bright lake]

||Basically helps you keep still while hitting an enemy||

[vital prism]

Can i use it on ||Mantis Lords?||

[vague fern]

you can hit multiple times per second in facedancing wdym

[thick wing]

Yeah any boss

If you hate being pushed back when u strike,this charm is for you

[fading halo]

||4 times a second, wich is 1 shriek of damage. ||

[vital prism]

Yeah, especially in spikes or acidic area?

[vague fern]

and one has stun, the other doesnt

but its clear if you look at any run and you'll see them not spam || shriek||

excluding || fury|| runs for obvious reasons lol

[thick wing]

if you strike a spike normally,you wont be bounced bzck,if you pogo then you will bounce up the same though.

[bright lake]

4 times a second is crazy

[plain panther]

||No knockback on hitting enemies, very cool||

[vague fern]

yh its busted

but hard to pull off

[vital prism]

Wow, I love ||Dashmaster|| soooo much

[fading halo]

||Bro shriek can be done more than once a second and it's not close. Why are you so reluctant to agree?||

[plain panther]

It's dookey, I hate it 😭

[vital prism]

Why?

[thick wing]

Its good,you go super fast

[vague fern]

'why are you so reluctant to agree' because every single run, whether its hitless, speedkills, casual etc dont do it

and they dont do it for no reason

its logical

[plain panther]

@fading halo ||bro is soul master a harder enemy compared to mawlek?||

[vague fern]

its called animation cancels

and if you are spamming it blindly you're losing damage

spell animation cancels to be clear

[plain panther]

But the down ||dash|| is so annoying 😭

[thick wing]

Don't || down dash || ?

And its useful alot of times

[fading halo]

||Prob soul or another reason but raw damage wise assuming inf soul and invincibility shriek does more damage||

[vague fern]

|| soul || is a huge reason but its not the only reason. also you dont play with invc

but like i said, you can animation cancel ||spells||

i cant explain it any more than this really

[vital prism]

Have anyone got tired with bosses scream at 10000db?

[bright lake]

You can?

[fading halo]

|| @vague fern I'm not saying it's better bro it just does more damage than only nail. Ofc nail plus fireball does the most damage||

[vague fern]

yup, its mainly used with || shade soul||

[bright lake]

Laughs in ||pv||

[vague fern]

alright

it wont go anywhere regardless

not worth the time for a hypothetical

[vital prism]

how does ||stalwart shell|| works?

[vague fern]

|| increases the iframes when you take dmg ||

[plain panther]

Have you played undertale?

[bright lake]

I forgot that exists lmao

[vital prism]

Yes

[plain panther]

It's basically torn notebook and cloudy glasses

[vital prism]

Oh Yeaaaaaa!

also ||Dashmaster|| look like Sans.

[plain panther]

Lmao funny how you actually understood what I was trying to say

[bright lake]

I like how there are like ||4 charms|| in the game which is just ||more lief||

[bright lake]

This gives pickle Rick lol

[plain panther]

Agreed

[candid yarrow]

|| where do i get essence? ||

|| trying to get to POP ||

|| currently got 900 ||

[strange gust]

have u got all ||dream warriors||

[modest kestrel]

|| are there any benches in path of pain or if you leave the game the progress is gone ??||

[vital prism]

i want to ask dev for why does ||dashmaster|| look like Sans.

[vital prism]

None at all.

[vital prism]

try to not die in end

[modest kestrel]

So if we leave , progress gone

[vital prism]

ye

bye bye hours of painful struggle

so keep in game for entire section

bro why canoe emoji?

[modest kestrel]

Ok but damn that is hard cuz of the progress gone

[plain panther]

Either a coincidence or a reference, probably just a coincidence though

[vital prism]

do you want to see what is on end or see it for yourself and potetinally ending all of hours of suffering?

[modest kestrel]

I got spoiled so I know about the 2

[vital prism]

oh alright

[candid yarrow]

pretty sure

[vital prism]

by someone before me?

[candid yarrow]

why?

[modest kestrel]

I am doing || pop cuz I suck at p4 so I want to do something else ||

[vital prism]

becasue there's very new guy in server.

[candid yarrow]

|| are they called warrior's dream? ||

|| or dream warriors? ||

[vital prism]

one question, is bridge where i saw ||hornet|| went leads to ||city of tears||?

it's in ||fungal waste||

[candid yarrow]

idk

[orchid flower]

Yes

[sterile pawn]

||Dream warriors||

[vital prism]

Thanks so much, i need ||nail forge guy.||

[sterile pawn]

I need ||spell forge guy||

[vital prism]

Ah

i am wondering how long is ||Hollow Knight|| game development?

[scenic zealot]

Can someone give me tips for ||nkg||

[broken onyx]

anyone knows the link to modding API ??

[wraith jasper]

Is it possible to get multiple if not all || endings on 1 save||

[uncut bane]

Release my dawg @lunar meadow

Release my dawg @lunar meadow

[bright lake]

It is, ||you just have to avoid doing certain things to lock yourself out from getting certain endings||

[wraith jasper]

|| I got told I get the first ending without void heart then I can do the rest is that true and if not how do I do it I don’t mind spoilers||

[bright lake]

You'll probably get more response in #1057825333841240104

[sterile pawn]

Why can you not just install lumafly?

[broken onyx]

it's giving me errors i don't know why i just want to play it split screen

i can't send image here but says invalid hollow knight version

[sterile pawn]

I have no clue then ask #1057825333841240104 and give them your mod log if possible

[vital prism]

you need to spoiler mark picture

[raven glade]

hello

i need help

[broken onyx]

huh why ?

[vital prism]

oh i have no idea then

[scenic zealot]

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME TIPS FOR ||NKG||

[bright lake]

||the void heart thing is true|| but there's also the ||delicate flower|| where if you give it to ||godseeker|| you'll lock yourself out from another ending

[sterile pawn]

Yes there are ||2 "endings" that are locked behind a sidequest but they aren't really real endings||

[vital prism]

hey, Where is ||stagway|| in ||fungal waste?||

[shell yoke]

||queen's station||

[scenic zealot]

||queens station||

[sterile pawn]

I think you just need to tell it where your hollow knight exe is located

[vital prism]

oh, ||Queen's Station is technically part of fungal waste..?||

[wraith jasper]

||How do I do it I’m so confused do I just do all main 3 first 2 without void heart then do what ever the other one I lock my self out of if I give delicate flower then do the god home one ? Which one is the one I get locked out of If I give god seeker delicate flower ||

[broken onyx]

Yes I did that already

[sterile pawn]

No it is it's own area afaik

[broken onyx]

it says version error

[vital prism]

Oh

[broken onyx]

I have the xbox pass version of the game

[bright lake]

||there isn't a direct station to fungal wastes but QS is the closest||

[sterile pawn]

Idk if you can mod that version tbh

[shell yoke]

i mean it connects to it

with 1 room

[vital prism]

oh right yea

[broken onyx]

it's not moddable ?

[shell yoke]

you cant mod consoles

it doesnt

[vital prism]

Oh

[sterile pawn]

It might be moddable but most mods are made for the steam version as it is the most popular.

[broken onyx]

I didn't knew windows was a console

[broken onyx]

that isn't the point tho lumafly just doesn't install

[bright lake]

||which ending have you done||

[vital prism]

sorry for deleting post, i was supposed to reply you :P.

[wraith jasper]

None yet

[shell yoke]

just to let you know

[sterile pawn]

Yeah idk if lumafly supports that version at all

[broken onyx]

thank you for letting me know windows is now owned by sony

[sterile pawn]

What version is gamepass again?

[broken onyx]

how to check the version ?

[sterile pawn]

Just launch the game and look in the bottom left

[broken onyx]

i see wait a second

[sterile pawn]

I am a glitched runner so I have speedran on like 12 different patches xD

The ||deepnest toll is so funny ngl||

[vital prism]

i can't help but to say, it's insane that it took Cherry team 2 to 2.5 years to make ||Hollow knight|| game, and it took Cherry team 7 years to make ||hollow Knight Silksong|| game.

7 years is just insane, mainly because of cherry team is small developer team.

[sterile pawn]

The fact that they could keep going for another 7 years with no financial issues is funny.

[bright lake]

||1st ending, you beat the game without void heart
2nd ending, you beat the game w void heart
3rd ending, similar to 2nd ending but you have to do something else in a specific moment (there will be an indicator)
4th ending, you beat all the pantheon in godhome
5th ending, same with 4th ending, but you must give a delicate flower to the godseeker first
6 ending, this is more of an Easter egg but complete a certain character's sidequest and beat the game (any ending will do) and you'll get an extra cutscene||

[vital prism]

Yea, Budget of Silksong is so tiny

[old condor]

could someone explain?

[vague fern]

At 3k total you get a reward

[wraith jasper]

What charcter’s side quest for the final one

[fiery path]

||u need to drop 3000 geo for a vessel fragment||

[old condor]

and after?

[wraith jasper]

Character

[fiery path]

||mr mushroom i think||

[vague fern]

Wdym? Thats it

[bright lake]

||Mr mushroom||

[old condor]

oh ok

[vital prism]

Budget to make silksong is about $40,000.

[bright lake]

Ain't no way

[wraith jasper]

40k is crazy

[old condor]

[native tinsel]

If you only have ||shaman stone|| for the ||spell build|| it will still work haha

[native tinsel]

That’s fine, it’s a very good combo

[old condor]

im still getting cooked but oh well

[fiery path]

[humble marsh]

[bright lake]

Nop, the area closes up after you beat it

[hexed marsh]

is there any mod that changes that?

[strange gust]

i dont know i play without

[bright lake]

Do you have mods on

[strange gust]

You can only do it once per playthrough

[strange gust]

i didnt get the ||journal entry|| i think

[hexed marsh]

even with mods?

[strange gust]

i have lots of bugs

look

[bright lake]

Depends on what mods you're talking about

[hexed marsh]

[hexed marsh]

[bright lake]

||getting monarch wings also triggers the infection||

[old condor]

||does anyone know each geo cost of each upgrade of the nail ?||

[hexed marsh]

[vague fern]

[old condor]

[hexed marsh]

ye

[old condor]

||isnt there 6 pale ores tho , does it just cap at 4k or do you need more than 1 ore for later upgrades||

[orchid flower]

||It increases by one each time||

[old condor]

[orchid flower]

||One ore, then it costs two ore, then it costs 3 ore||

[old condor]

oh

yea that makes sense now

[orchid flower]

Ye

[vital prism]

[orchid flower]

You might not end up finding out what they do in your playthrough

It’s a commonly missed thing

If you want spoilers I can tell you

[vital prism]

Go on, i'm immune to spoiler anyway

[fiery path]

||u can give it to an npc, if u do while your shade is somewhere she will bring it to you and u wont need to risk losing ur geo||

[orchid flower]

||Theres an NPC in Dirtmouth that’ll retrieve your shade for you||

[vital prism]

Ah yeah I remember it now

or i may missed when talking said NPC

[fervent violet]

Goog night chat

[vital prism]

Hollow knight is easily 10/10 game

[vital prism]

Goodnight.

is there's only one bench that is paid to be used?

[orchid flower]

There’s a few scattered about

[old condor]

||the description aint cuttint it what does defender's crest do?||

[crystal wave]

||makes a could around you that does a damage every 0.75 seconds and lasts for 2 seconds or smth like that||

[old condor]

is it good

[crystal wave]

no

only for 2 specific bosses

[mental loom]

Two?

I thought it was just one

[crystal wave]

||broken vessel and lost kin||

[mental loom]

I forgot abt the ||dream bosses||

[jolly wagon]

Yall im at the bench in ||pantheon|| 3 should i change my ||charms||? ||(they are quick slash, unbreakable strength, shaman stone and longnail)||

[orchid flower]

||Longnail isn’t that good, there are other two notch charms I’d recommend more. Spell twister is one of them, Unbreakable heart is another||

[gentle oak]

alright guys, took a 2 hour nap REVITALIZED!

[orchid flower]

Good job lol

[modest kestrel]

|| guys I did it pop , it was fun ,got super intense and frustrated in the end but completed it , I hope silksong also get pop , I completed under 2 hours something ||

[gentle oak]

noice

[orchid flower]

Good work!

I also just did ||PoP|| for the second time today

[modest kestrel]

One a new playthrough??

[orchid flower]

Yea

I bought the game on Steam because there was mods I needed to make the ||P5AB|| grind less unbearable

So I just did a whole playthrough again

[modest kestrel]

Ohh || I am also going to do steel soul run after 3 or 4 days , I guess I will also do second time then ||

[orchid flower]

There’s not rly a reason to do it in ||Steel Soul||, it’s unnecessary risk

[modest kestrel]

What is || P5AB grind less unbearable ??||

[orchid flower]

||Steel Soul is really fun though||

[modest kestrel]

Ohh ok

[orchid flower]

||P5AB is beating the Pantheon of Hallownest with all four bindings active||

[modest kestrel]

||I did steel soul in ss and I died many times , so I will try to do it in hk first ||

[orchid flower]

I’ve beaten both

It’s a lot easier in this game

[modest kestrel]

You don't need mod to do that right ??

[orchid flower]

||You need mods to practice specific AB bosses||

[modest kestrel]

Yeah almost no double damage at beginning is really good

[modest kestrel]

Ohhh I see

Gl with it then || I still need to do p4||

[orchid flower]

||Primarily Collector, Markoth, Zote, and Absolute Radiance||

[modest kestrel]

Ohhhh || is collector hard ??||

[orchid flower]

He’s ridiculously hard in this challenge yeah

[modest kestrel]

Ohh , good luck ,may we both beat our || respective pantheon we aim for || 🫂

[thick wing]

Is || grey prince zote || harder in || p5 ||

[orchid flower]

||No, every Godhome Zote fight uses Zote 3||

[shut sparrow]

||than in dirtmouth? Yes. Harder than the first fight. It's as difficult as the third, the same as in the hall of gods||

[orchid flower]

||P5 using Zote 10 would be so cruel||

[thick wing]

What's || zote 3 || i only fought it 2 times || the weak ass version || and the || brettas basement ||

[orchid flower]

||You can fight the one in Bretta’s basement multiple times, he gets harder each time||

||Godhome uses the third variation||

[thick wing]

oh

[hexed marsh]

||there's zote in p5? i dont remember fighting zote even once in the game where do i fight him?||

[orchid flower]

||If you didn’t fight him then he won’t appear. He’s a bit of a secret boss||

[proud lantern]

pebb disapeared even tho i didnt buy everything

[hexed marsh]

||thats why i didnt have him in p5||

[orchid flower]

Ask in #sk-help

[proud lantern]

ah

[hexed marsh]

soo where do i fight him? (and how hard is he?)

[orchid flower]

||You need to save Zote 3 times throughout the game, then he’ll appear in Dirtmouth. At that point, go into Bretta’s basement||

[thick wing]

does it get harder over and over?

[orchid flower]

Yes

||There are 10 versions of Zote||

[thick wing]

Is there a limit

[scenic egret]

yes

[thick wing]

|| zote || is so easy

[orchid flower]

||After Zote 3, the only change is he does more damage. Zote 10 does 8 masks||

[thick wing]

ima do all 10

[thick wing]

WTF

8 MASKS?

[orchid flower]

Yes

You have to get really good at fighting him

[thick wing]

ah hell naw

[sterile pawn]

This followed by hell naw is funny xD

[thick wing]

XD

nah bro im not doing more

i did it 4 times

[orchid flower]

As long as you can beat the third one you’re fine

[thick wing]

does || zote || keep saying precept "1,2,3 etc" ocer and kver?

[thick wing]

took 1 hit

[orchid flower]

He has 57

[thick wing]

Does || bretta || not get tired

[dense finch]

how to kill ||the hollow knight|| to get all ||endings||

????

[native tinsel]

Wdym?

[orchid flower]

I’m not sure what your question exactly is

[thick wing]

wdym

[dense finch]

like how to kill it for the first time

[orchid flower]

Again, not sure what you mean

Are you asking for help on the battle or how to access it?

[dense finch]

nah im on it

[orchid flower]

Okay, just be patient

[native tinsel]

R u struggling on some attacks?

[orchid flower]

The fight is much easier than most of the late game bosses

[thick wing]

Judt kill it,when you do it,you can play on ur save from the bench

[orchid flower]

But only if you play patiently

[dense finch]

if i kill him without dream nailing him can i fight ||radniace|| ?

[orchid flower]

You need to do more work for that

[dense finch]

nah not like that

[thick wing]

can I access || absolute radiance in hall of gods after finishing p5? ||

[dense finch]

idk how to tell u this

[thick wing]

did u get || void heart ||

[dense finch]

yes

[thick wing]

what was ur question again(

[orchid flower]

Then you just ||dream nail|| to fight ||radiance||

[sly tendon]

Did u do it before u beat ||Hollow knight before getting Void heart||

[orchid flower]

If you don’t you get a different ending

[dense finch]

i didnt

[orchid flower]

You just need to face her once for her to appear there

[thick wing]

ok ty

[orchid flower]

Then you’re locked out of the base ending

[dense finch]

like if i kill ||the radiance|| can i face ||hollow knight ||again ??

[orchid flower]

Yes

[native tinsel]

Yes

[thick wing]

Yes

[orchid flower]

You can do it infinitely you just can’t get the base ending after obtaining ||void heart||

[dense finch]

in the ||hall of gods|| ?

[orchid flower]

They don’t exist there

[native tinsel]

Ending ❌ cutscene ✅

[sly tendon]

That one is ||pure vessel||

[dense finch]

can i still get 112% ??

[orchid flower]

You always can

[native tinsel]

Ofc

[thick wing]

huh guys if you spam Nail strike after doing || cyclone slash || you can float a bit in air and do more damage

[orchid flower]

You just can’t do every achievement on one save

Which is impossible anyway

[thick wing]

I didnt know that

[orchid flower]

But yknow

[orchid flower]

Yea it’s nice

[dense finch]

alr thanks

[thick wing]

its pretty cool

[dense finch]

and what charms am i missing??

[sly tendon]

||nailsmith||

[harsh crane]

guys ever since I downloaded discord on my PC, hn audio went gone even tho all other games audio are fine
Anyone familiar?

[thick wing]

Pretty sure its just hollow knight and the discord overly tuff

Did you ever stream hk to your friends

[harsh crane]

Yea it was gone right after streaming

[thick wing]

Check audio settings in hk

[harsh crane]

And I was using headphones, audio comes back only when headphones are plugged

[harsh crane]

I did and reseted nothing changed

[thick wing]

then use your headphones?

[orchid flower]

||Spell Twister, at the top of the soul sanctum. Lifeblood Core, in the Abyss behind the blue door(you need 15 lifeblood masks to access it). Joni’s Blessing, in a platforming challenge in the Howling Cliffs. Glowing Womb, behind a breakable wall in the center of Forgotten Crossroads. Weaversong, in a hidden area called Weavers Den in Eastern Deepnest. Shape of Unn, in the Lake of Unn||

[harsh crane]

Is it a permanent issue or js temporarily

[dense finch]

thanks

[thick wing]

probably temporary

I've streamed hk a bunch of times but never got that issue

[harsh crane]

But silksong is fine that's weird I streamed it too

[thick wing]

hm

[edgy sun]

How do you download mods??

[thick wing]

let me think

[harsh crane]

Ikr I don't get it

[thick wing]

I think i might know

[harsh crane]

Btw I'm a big fan of Vinland saga

[thick wing]

me too

i think that discord changed ur audio output

maybe to your pc but your pc doesnt have speakers

idk how to change them in hk tho...

[bronze minnow]

How do I get to ||god home|| I'm at breakable wall

[thick wing]

cuz alot of times when im streaming my audio output randomly changes to my pc but I dont have a output fir audio

[harsh crane]

I started to think there might not be any correlation to begin with and I'm js oblivious..

[harsh crane]

Break the wall

[thick wing]

if you dont mind what does oblivious mean

[bronze minnow]

With?

Tried multiple things

None worked

[thick wing]

What wall are you talking avour

[bronze minnow]

One straight below bench

[orchid flower]

If you can’t just break it with your sword it’s not breakable

[bronze minnow]

Is it a 1 sided

[orchid flower]

Most likely

[hollow bramble]

The knight just looks down

If you want to just look down

[vital prism]

Just to respect to someone extremely important or lords later =)
