@bronze minnow

[rugged fox]

||is there a safe spot from nkg's flames after the uppercut attack||

[dense torrent]

sadge

[solemn zealot]

Yes

[orchid flower]

Next to where he jumped from is pretty safe

[vague fern]

Right under him basically

[solemn zealot]

I always go a bit to the right of ||nkg's|| launch position. If it's next to a wall, then go a bit left.

[rugged fox]

alr

[solemn zealot]

No, under him is a ||fireball||

I'm pretty sure

Or is that only for normal ||grimm||

[vague fern]

Its basically under him

[polar flicker]

Going to start || abs rad practice ||

[solemn zealot]

No

[vague fern]

But yeah directly under him skims one

[bronze minnow]

I'll use that

[vague fern]

Gl gl gl

[solemn zealot]

||fragile charms|| don't break in ||dream bosses||

[acoustic sigil]

You still have to spoiler tag your messages when rewording it to not trigger the bot

[unborn wigeon]

I’m just going to go find my ||missing pale ore|| wherever that is

[dense torrent]

[pulsar plume]

[bronze minnow]

[solemn zealot]

[hollow sluice]

[solemn zealot]

Yes

[polar flicker]

Kind of

[solemn zealot]

Ok that's fine.

[acoustic sigil]

Charm names are also spoilers

[hollow sluice]

alr perfect beacuse I HATE the ||deep nest||

is there anything else i need to do in it?

[polar flicker]

Yes

[bronze minnow]

Idk how to do spoilers

[hollow sluice]

dont spoil

[solemn zealot]

There are|| 2 bosses. ||

[hollow sluice]

i just wanted to know that

[polar flicker]

I won't

[unborn wigeon]

I did the ||coliseum the seer the grub reward the one in the basin and the one in the peaks||

[solemn zealot]

Add || on both sides of the message

[acoustic sigil]

You most certainly do as you have used them before but sure
||like this||

[hollow sluice]

||dung defender and the flying spawning guy yes?||

[polar flicker]

No

That's a different area

[rugged fox]

Lmao

[hollow sluice]

ah alr

[solemn zealot]

Yeah, it's not ||deepnest||

[hollow sluice]

||i fought nosk already but i know its not progression||

anyway ima take a break for like 20 mins brb

[polar flicker]

It is if ur going for max completion

[hollow sluice]

im going for max completion that\s why i beat it

[solemn zealot]

It is, it gives you a ||pale ore, needed for nail upgrades||

[rugged fox]

it is tho

[bronze minnow]

They meant story

I think

[hollow sluice]

yeah i got it

[hollow sluice]

yes.

[solemn zealot]

For story progression you basically just need the ||3 dreamers and the necessary movement abilities to reach them||

[bronze minnow]

How many phases are in this guy

[acoustic sigil]

1

||If you mean staggers, 3||

[bronze minnow]

Killed him finally

[plain panther]

How do I defeat ||nosk||?

[bronze minnow]

[bright hamlet]

||soul tyrant is pretty easy||

[bronze minnow]

How do I get to defender

[dense torrent]

breakable ||floor|| by the original fight

[bronze minnow]

Yeah but can't see

[bright hamlet]

THANKS, FINALLY FOUND IT

[bright hamlet]

Under the acid lever ||

[bronze minnow]

[hollow sluice]

i dont have that/

[pulsar plume]

[hollow sluice]

also i was really far and it 1 shot me great.

[hollow sluice]

alr

[silk sorrel]

you can pogo on it if the ceiling is high enough

[pulsar plume]

nice

[unborn wigeon]

Man if ||deepnest|| wouldn’t get any worst ||WHAT DID THEY DO TO THE GRUBS||

[bronze minnow]

Where even am i

[pulsar plume]

perfection

[silk sorrel]

truly

[pulsar plume]

wdym?

[bronze minnow]

||WHITE PALACE?||

[silk sorrel]

good luck

[unborn wigeon]

The ||mimic grubs||

[silk sorrel]

They aren't ||grubs||

[unborn wigeon]

I hope you enjoy platforming

[silk sorrel]

they are creatures that morph into them

[pulsar plume]

oh they didnt do anything to them they are just bugs that take the form of ||Grubs||

[unborn wigeon]

The longer I stay in this place the more I hate it

[hollow sluice]

btw i tried the strategy it was working until i miss clicked and died !

[pulsar plume]

you gotta get more masks bruh

[hollow sluice]

i have 6

[silk sorrel]

||dashmaster or sprintmaster|| makes it easier

[bright hamlet]

Do I need the other half of ||white charm to get salubras blessing?||

[vale spear]

How do I get that??

[unborn wigeon]

Hey at least I’m almost done with the area and never have to return for anything after

[halcyon trench]

||banish the grimm troupe ||

[pulsar plume]

pretty sure yeah

[unborn wigeon]

Wait there’s a charm for that?

[halcyon trench]

||yup, you gotta talk to the npc in distant village after the first grimm fight and go back to where it all started, after that an npc gives it to you near the bench in dirtmouth||

[pulsar plume]

im missing just one ||mask shard|| where do you guys suggest i look

[unborn wigeon]

Annnnnd it’s in ||distant village||

[halcyon trench]

you did ||flower quest|| i hope?

[pulsar plume]

yep

[halcyon trench]

yup

[halcyon trench]

||my best guesses are sly, the one in deepnest or the one you get after the whole parkour thing in the queens station||

[pulsar plume]

i got all of them

[halcyon trench]

||the cocoon looking house under the dreamers thing||

[halcyon trench]

||enraged crystal guardian||?

[pulsar plume]

yep

i feel like its teh ||waterways ||one

[halcyon trench]

yup, that woulda been my next guess

[bright hamlet]

||bretta?||

[pulsar plume]

got that one aswell

[halcyon trench]

did you get the ||waterways|| one?

[pulsar plume]

im going to that

checking

[bright hamlet]

Wait where in there?

I might be missing that one as well

[pulsar plume]

THAT WAS IT

got teh last one

[bright hamlet]

🔥

[pulsar plume]

right where im

[halcyon trench]

the area under the ||cornifer|| room column

[bright hamlet]

Think I have that one

[pulsar plume]

i gave my ||heart|| cahrm to the npc taht upgrades them do i need to get it back for it to count as a percentage?

[bright hamlet]

Think u need ||salubras blessing||, and to get that, I think you need all ||charms||

[halcyon trench]

i dont think so

[lethal siren]

you need it back

[pulsar plume]

no apparently each charm counts as one percentage

[dense torrent]

yes

[pulsar plume]

dang

[dense torrent]

you lose a % for giving it to ||divine||

gain it back by paying 12k or ||banishing||

[bright hamlet]

Can I fight ||nkg after banishing?||

[halcyon trench]

nope

[dense torrent]

no

[hollow sluice]

does this guy do anything

[lethal siren]

Just lore

[halcyon trench]

he gives lore and stuff

[hollow sluice]

ah i hit him with my ||dream nail||

ALSO UR TELLING ME I DID ALL OF THIS PARKOUR FOR THIS?

[lethal siren]

[rugged fox]

Lol

[lethal siren]

Get the last percent boi

[rugged fox]

||nkg|| is whooping my ahh

but i will...someday

[hollow sluice]

bro and i died there so i gotta go back SUCH A LONG ROUTE

[lethal siren]

THATS YOUR LAST PERCENT?

wow ok

[hollow sluice]

and i still dont have a map

[rugged fox]

Lol yeah

[hollow sluice]

..

[dense torrent]

its just about practice tbh

after about an hour of gitting gud youll probably get close to beating him

[lethal siren]

So bro beat ||p4|| but can't beat ||nkg||

[gritty idol]

||so uve done p4 and cant beat nkg ||

🥀

[lethal siren]

What's ur tier in sword

[dense torrent]

||p4|| is literally easier than it

???

like way easier

only somewhat difficult boss is ||pv||

[lethal siren]

;-;

[wet spire]

[rugged fox]

i trivialized ||pv|| by just ||double jumping over it lol||

[unborn wigeon]

I’m missing a ||pale ore||would anyone have a idea to what it would likely be

[dense torrent]

how could ||p4|| possibly be harder than ||nightmare king||

[lethal siren]

we can't know cuz like we don't know which ones you got so just look up a vid if you need to

[dense torrent]

spent like an hour on ||p4|| only cuz of ||pv|| and spent 3h on ||nkg||

[unborn wigeon]

That

Actually makes a lot of sense

[gritty idol]

lt3 untested skill wise

[lethal siren]

I mean I beat him 2nd try while ||p4|| took me four tries

[hollow sluice]

alr so IVE gotten the lore and the ||dream value|| where do i go now LIKE WHAt do i need to find?

[gritty idol]

😭

[wet spire]

|| pv alone is very much recognised to be harder || LMAO

[unborn wigeon]

I just assumed there’s a common one most ppl miss

[dense torrent]

i mean i guess bro

but imo its way easier

[wet spire]

theres always weird preferences

[dense torrent]

its barely fented up compared to ||thk||

[gritty idol]

oh well odd ig but it is what is

[lethal siren]

yea no ||pv|| kicked my ass harder than ||nkg|| when I first saw it

[wet spire]

|| nkg|| is so easy that it becomes insanely boring once you've learnt a decent response for each move. || pv|| requires mechanical skill on top of that

[dense torrent]

whatever u say

[drifting crag]

on what button press can i heal myself

[lethal siren]

eh they're both easy but the former is hit and run while the latter is more close combat and fun

[wet spire]

the former just gets so boring after you learn him whereas the latter stays fun

[lethal siren]

shi

RAAH

[rugged fox]

the only part about ||nkg|| that screws me over so far is the ||pufferfish attack|| tbh

[halcyon trench]

keyboard or controller?

[lethal siren]

I'm not doing ts

[drifting crag]

keyboard

[halcyon trench]

its a im pretty sure

[drifting crag]

ok thx

[lethal siren]

oh makes sense

[gritty idol]

my eyes bug for aome reason off seeing it

[lean maple]

This, ||nkg|| is top 3 hardest bosses on that first playthrough but once you practice him enough he’s straight up easier than most midgame bosses

[lethal siren]

best way to check is to go into options and check control bindings

[lethal siren]

Fr

[vagrant path]

wait fr??

[wet spire]

went from s tier boss to d tier for me. just way too boring and not dynamic at all

[rugged fox]

The evil and intimidating ||watcher knights||

[lethal siren]

Uh no the music still slaps and the effects are amazing

[lean maple]

He’s still fun just comedically easy

[lethal siren]

it's def not d tier

[wet spire]

after enough time he isnt fun anymore imo but yeah true

[lean maple]

Not that hard tbh

[lethal siren]

On the more difficult side though

[vagrant path]

|| watcher knights || are kinda mid

[lethal siren]

I still haven't hitlessed em

[rugged fox]

i hate their guts

[vagrant path]

real

[dense torrent]

fr

i thought they were easy until i tried to fight them in a speedrun

[vagrant path]

|| mantis lords || are way more fun than the || watcher knights || for me

[dense torrent]

i like them too

the 2nd part is so satisfying to play for some reason

[halcyon trench]

||if you do wanna, try abusing the fuck outa ddive, hit hit pogo and ddive untill they die||

[vagrant path]

it feels like memorizing a dance

[lethal siren]

Makes sense

||soul eater soul catcher spell twiste|| here we come

[halcyon trench]

but like ||sisters of battle|| anyone? I was creaming my pants the entire fight

[dense torrent]

sorry what

[lethal siren]

it's good but uh idt you should be doing that

[gentle prawn]

Wha

[dense torrent]

did i read that rightr

prolly wasnt the wind

but its alright

accidents happen

[lethal siren]

[vagrant path]

i wish it was the wind

[orchid flower]

Goodness me

[unborn wigeon]

Wow ||nosk|| was easy

[hollow sluice]

i have an question where is the guy that u have to fight and he throws an axe at u ||he is a dream boss like u have to either hit him with ur dream nail or talk to him he is in deep nest||

[orchid flower]

Uh he’s by the ||lifeblood cocoon|| if u have those marked on ur map

[hollow sluice]

brother i dont even have a map/

[orchid flower]

Oh you should probably get that first haha

[dusk path]

[dense torrent]

||cornifer|| is so scared that he hides in ||deepnest||

[hollow sluice]

im in the wrong place arent i.

[vagrant path]

uh oh

[hollow sluice]

is th at bad?

[orchid flower]

The fact that you made it all the way to the end of ||Deepnest|| without ever running into map man is very impressive

[dense torrent]

no

its good

kinda bad

[dense torrent]

but good

[hollow sluice]

HELP

[dense torrent]

[dusk path]

[hollow sluice]

[vagrant path]

[hollow sluice]

im cooked ig 😭

[dense torrent]

lowkirkenuinely wondering how u got all the way over there without a map

[hollow sluice]

idk memory bro.

[orchid flower]

In fairness you do just have to generally move west

Eventually you’ll make it to the end

[dense torrent]

true

[vagrant path]

you need to walk to the entire other side of ||deepnest|| to get the map

[orchid flower]

But it’s also the biggest area in the game so not having a map is unfortunate

[dusk path]

ts not grow a garden bro

[dense torrent]

i need geo tho

[vagrant path]

i need to get the ||weaver|| mutation on my knight

[dense torrent]

[orchid flower]

Give her a poke with your regular sword

[vagrant path]

[dense torrent]

[orchid flower]

This was explained earlier in the game but it seems like u forgor

[halcyon trench]

no like just hit with the intent to kill

[orchid flower]

U gotta kill these people

[rugged fox]

Beat her to death

[hollow sluice]

alr ty

[halcyon trench]

good job

[vagrant path]

you need to do the same thing for the other 2 ||dreamers||

[hollow sluice]

||btw i hit her 25 times with my dream nail cuz i tought that's what yall meant||

[halcyon trench]

we assumed the bloodthirst was mutual

[hollow sluice]

is this all from this area?

[vagrant path]

yeah

[halcyon trench]

unless you didnt get the ||grub||

[hollow sluice]

[vagrant path]

[unborn wigeon]

Wow ||the radiance|| is hard

[hollow sluice]

[halcyon trench]

[rugged fox]

Bro got the authentic ||deepnest|| experience

[unborn wigeon]

Alright

[halcyon trench]

[unborn wigeon]

At least ||the hollow knight|| isn’t hard

[hollow sluice]

is that good lol?

[rugged fox]

if you enjoyed it yes

[halcyon trench]

||im pretty sure you can now buy the map from shop||

[hollow sluice]

i hated every part of it also did i forgot to mention i have arachnophobia

[rugged fox]

Well then you got the even more authentic experience 😭

[orchid flower]

Most authentic experience is no ||lantern|| too

[gusty dawn]

||No lantern is crazy||

[hollow sluice]

[orchid flower]

Wherever you want

[faint oyster]

[hollow sluice]

here you go

[orchid flower]

Your full map silly

Or I suppose if you want you can head up to town and buy this map

[rugged fox]

Dont the ||spikes|| reset you to the beginning of the room if you dont have ||lantern||, sounds like hell 🤣

[orchid flower]

Use ||abyss shriek|| liberally. Grind in ||HoG|| for a few days till you get used to her timing

[halcyon trench]

it really was

[faint oyster]

Thank you

[vagrant path]

||deepnest|| was my least favorite area in the game (even with the map) and you somehow beat it without it 😭

[hollow sluice]

i call it (please speed i need this my mom is kinda mapless)

[vagrant path]

you should put that on your resume

[hollow sluice]

anyway do i have to use the ||tram in resting grounds||

or do i have to do smht else

[vagrant path]

the ||tram|| in ||resting grounds|| only goes to||crossroads||

[hollow sluice]

ah

[serene sentinel]

Use the ||elevator in resting grounds||

[vagrant path]

did you buy a map 😭

[hollow sluice]

it leads to 2 new areas

[hollow sluice]

idk how to use it

also idk where it is

[native tinsel]

||All the way down to the right||

[halcyon trench]

do you remember the hotspring in ||deepnest||?

[halcyon trench]

go to the right from there

[dusk path]

i call that || zotes man-cave||

[old condor]

wrong channel budd , #sk-help

[vestal lark]

Oh thx

Sorry

[stray furnace]

Any tips for beating ||lost kin|| his ||slam with the orb shotgun|| is so fookin hard to dodge

no charms that summon stuff

[misty cipher]

do you have

do you have || jonis blessing ||

in the fight you dont get much healing oportunities

so maybe just going all in MIGHT be worth it

[stray furnace]

yes

[misty cipher]

maybe try it once

[stray furnace]

i only have 6 hearts so the buff isnt very significant

[orchid flower]

That sounds terrifying

[stray furnace]

i literally cant dodge the stupid slam ||compared to regular version||

[misty cipher]

HOW IS || INFECTION || SPOILER bro

[lethal siren]

lmao the only peaceful place in that area and you give it a name like that

[lethal siren]

cuz lore ig

[misty cipher]

Im just gonna spoiler mark my entire msges bro

[lethal siren]

makes sense

[misty cipher]

|| I will watch that attack rn lowkey forgot it wait a sec ||

[stray furnace]

this is the hardest boss ive fought so far

his attacks are faster than ||the regular version||

theyre better and stronger

[lethal siren]

yea most ||dream versions|| are

[stray furnace]

the arena is small and hes so fast

[opal temple]

slam? against the floor?

[misty cipher]

so u can do 2 things

either run to the side fully

[stray furnace]

the slam of ||lost kin|| which also ||spawns 6 projectiles in a shotgun motion||

[lethal siren]

oh that

[opal temple]

the best advice i can give is ||use spells often||

[misty cipher]

|| by dashing and runniing ||

[lethal siren]

||descending dive is your best friend||

[stray furnace]

is it rlly that good

[opal temple]

it is

[stray furnace]

ive never used it in an actual combat situation

[lethal siren]

It gives you I-frames

[empty wharf]

||ddark|| is the best ||spell||

[stray furnace]

oh no way...

[lethal siren]

Eh they're all equally good and used in different situations I think

[empty wharf]

only ||descending dark||, ||desplate dive|| doesn't

[stray furnace]

Charm loadout what do i change

[opal temple]

if you see ||it's doing the slam, you desolate dive and comletely avoid it||

[misty cipher]

|| try to locate yourself in the like @stray furnace so yk how in his dive after he dives the bulbs come a bit later? what you wanna do is dodge him then dodge the bulbs by attacking him and well going to him while doing so||

[lethal siren]

It does

Not as long but it does

[empty wharf]

for fighring or exploring?

[misty cipher]

|| steady body || is good for this fight

allows you to keep the pressure

[stray furnace]

this was just my all purpose loadout built for longevity when exploring lol

[stray furnace]

for fighting ||lost kin||

dont spoil me on new charm locations plz

[lethal siren]

maybe change ||quick focus|| to ||shaman||

[empty wharf]

then why the hell do you have ||compass and swarm||?!

[misty cipher]

change || grub song or whatever that was with steady body ||

[lethal siren]

LMAO yea I just saw that

[stray furnace]

cuz theres no area to change it here and this is my first time at the boss

[empty wharf]

swap them out for ||fragile hearts||, ||dream fights don't break fragiles||

[opal temple]

also, ||if you catch it near a wall (but not on the wall) you can shoot a vengeful spirit at it and it'll hit twice||

[stray furnace]

i CBA to go ALL THE WAY back to the bench

[lethal siren]

It's not far..

[empty wharf]

there's a bench RIGHT NEXT TO HIM

1 room with 1 enemy

[opal temple]

but honestly if you're having too much trouble, come back later

[empty wharf]

js change ||compass and swarm for hearts||

[opal temple]

that's what i did

[stray furnace]

oh i did not see that breakable

woopsy

[misty cipher]

actually just swap || waywards compass with steady body,trust me might change alot||

[stray furnace]

its aight luckily i bought|| fragile hearts|| to use on a rainy day

[empty wharf]

yeah get ||quick slash ||the fight makes it 10 times easier, if you don't have it, don't fight him

[stray furnace]

today is that rainy day

[stray furnace]

dont tell me where to get that lol ill find that myself eventually

thx for the help guys

Quick question (don't spoil me if it's lore-related plz) but i put ||like 2k money down the pale shrine|| does it actually have use later on yes / no

it seems like i kind of just wasted

[misty cipher]

yes

[vague fern]

it does

[misty cipher]

might wanna donate more though @stray furnace

[empty wharf]

has later use, ||hut you need 3k or 3.5k total||

[opal temple]

it does yeah

[vague fern]

Former yeah

[stray furnace]

thats what i suspected

because it kept asking me for more

hopefully i get to gank this ||god|| greedy as shit

[misty cipher]

also knowing I got your attention || PLEASE TELL ME YOU WILL USE STEADY BODY CHARM ||

[empty wharf]

js ||1k|| more you got this

[stray furnace]

ill try that

[misty cipher]

ty

[stray furnace]

bro no way his j||ump predicts your movement||

thats so bs

[vague fern]

Who?

[stray furnace]

||lost kin||

no wonder i cant dodge that

[vague fern]

It doesnt predict you

Its just rng afaik

[stray furnace]

it does 100%; it predicts where your going

[vague fern]

Arguably worse but you just have to || hold dash || for the last moment

[orchid flower]

The jump distance is entirely random

[vague fern]

I can either go to you, or randomly. Neither option leads to predicting movement

[orchid flower]

What I don’t know is how much they input read

[stray furnace]

like if i am facing a direction + walk there he always|| lands right on that spot||

its definitely input read

theres no way

[vague fern]

It doesnt, its rng

Which is arguably worse

[hollow sluice]

where do i go to get|| double jump from here||

[orchid flower]

It just feels like it predicts you cause u get hit by it a lot

[vague fern]

You just have to hold || dash|| for the last second

or atleast thats what i do because i cant gauge distance

[hollow sluice]

do i just explore until i get lost?

[misty cipher]

yes

thats the enterence to || ancient basin || right?

[hollow sluice]

i got a ||pale ore||

[stray furnace]

this fucking boss man

i could fight two ||soul masters|| at the same time and it would be 100% easier

looks like a miniboss but he is the hardest one so far

[orchid flower]

I do tell people they’re the hardest non-DLC boss but people make fun of me for it💔

[stray furnace]

the hitbox on his projectiles is super generous

as in nearly impossible to dodge without paying close attention

[idle shard]

||
is this a good build for pantheon 4?||

[orchid flower]

||Heavy Blow|| isn’t really doing anything here

[idle shard]

oh it doesnt stack?

[orchid flower]

No it’s just a lot of em don’t take knock back in this one

[idle shard]

okei, what would be better?

||long nail?||

[wanton narwhal]

||heavy blow|| is also bad, bc it decreases ur dps, reduces the amount of soul, and causes bosses to be harder

[misty cipher]

@stray furnace Im Gonna Be Honest To You Now,Just Play The Game That Boss Fight Took Me A Few Hours But The More You Play The Better You Get

[wanton narwhal]

why did u right that all caps...

*write

[orchid flower]

||Heart|| is probably the best 2-charm

[misty cipher]

?

[idle shard]

||lifeblood heart right||

[orchid flower]

||Fragile Heart||

[wanton narwhal]

also, ||hiveblood|| is mid, bc if ur good at dodging its good, but normally people just stack damage and lose the effect

[misty cipher]

Im Used To Writing All In Caps(the first letter)If You Are Asking About Me that is,I sometimes do sometimes dont idk

[wanton narwhal]

k, u do u

[idle shard]

i have the upgraded one

but ig that should be better

right

[idle shard]

ooh

[idle shard]

is this better then?

[wanton narwhal]

ye thats a good build

[idle shard]

alr

[wanton narwhal]

remember that if it doesn'tt work, then just try different builds

the ||charm|| system is extremely customizable

[hollow sluice]

||
guys from here do i need to go to the city of tears by doing the parkour and then unlock something or do i need to unlock someting in the ancient basin wich im in rn||

[misty cipher]

|| ancient basin,if you didnt get smth from there yet ||

not saying what it is

[hollow sluice]

i know what it is ||its double jump||

[alpine girder]

Also don't drop ||your geos in the fountain yet||

[sinful saddle]

||you can get a simple key and pale ore if you do the left puzzle||

[hollow sluice]

first i need to get it

[stray furnace]

ngl the reason i cant beat ||lost kin|| is due to no mouse aim

[orchid flower]

Could u show ur charms?

[stray furnace]

using direction keys to aim attacks is a very archaic system

ill put it at that

[orchid flower]

I prefer controller

[plain panther]

You played on ur keyboard!??

[stray furnace]

unfortunately i can only play with a keyboard

[plain panther]

Mad respect

[stray furnace]

and it is so irritating

that theres no mouse aim

[plain panther]

:(

[orchid flower]

I don’t think I could make it that far in the game on keyboard haha

Ur rly good

[plain panther]

Same

[stray furnace]

the one thing holding me back

is the stupid

direction mechanics

its so difficult to have to move in a direction

to attack

[orchid flower]

U can try ordering an Xbox or PlayStation controller to use

[stray furnace]

especially during|| lost kin||

i hjave my switch controller does that work

[orchid flower]

As long as it has USB

[stray furnace]

if you could use your mouse to control attack direction

it would be

super easy

[orchid flower]

I’m not sure how wireless controllers work on Steam

[stray furnace]

because you could clear the minions no problem

[runic island]

try using summons and sticking to the top right of the arena, just out of range of its attacks

[stray furnace]

i am severely under powered for this fight

[runic island]

ah

[stray furnace]

no ||iframes cloak||

no ||quick slash whatever that is||

[orchid flower]

That’s not underpowered

[stray furnace]

no ||summons||

[orchid flower]

That’s relatively normal

[stray furnace]

dont tell me how to get those

no spoilers

[orchid flower]

You’re at a normal equipment level

[stray furnace]

i dont need your help on that end

[orchid flower]

It’s just the hardest fight in the base game

(In my humble opinion)

[stray furnace]

the 2nd hardest boss took me 5 tries at most (so far)

im on like my 20th try with this boss

[orchid flower]

Yeah it’s really tough

[stray furnace]

i have only gotten it to two knockdowns

iirc he has 3

[orchid flower]

You’re probably starting to reach the difficulty spike

[idle shard]

i instantly died to ||pure vessel|| LMAO

[orchid flower]

Difficulty spikes hard towards late game

[runic island]

i would def suggest getting more gear before ||lost kin||

[stray furnace]

if i had mouse to aim mechanics

this boss fight would be so much easier

[orchid flower]

If you want to make it easy this is probably the best decision

[orchid flower]

That’s not how the game was designed so ofc it would be

The game is designed around you using your directions, whether that be a joystick or keys

[stray furnace]

on controller do you aim with the 2nd joystick

[orchid flower]

No

[runic island]

no

[idle shard]

no

[twilit wing]

hes just practice tbh, once you learn all the moves hes one of the easiest || radiants || in the game

[stray furnace]

i am transitioning from computer games which all use mouse aim mechanics

[idle shard]

😔

[stray furnace]

like terraria for example

[orchid flower]

Ohh

Yeah that’ll be a big transition

[stray furnace]

its not an easy transition

[orchid flower]

You’ll get there!

Just takes practice

[runic island]

terraria goated

[orchid flower]

Terraria is very fun

[orchid flower]

Ironically double mask bosses end up being easier to ||radiant|| cause beating them normally already requires doing it near hitles

[idle shard]

if i still need 3 ||mask shards|| and to complete the last ||pantheon||, and i have 108% is it still possible to get 112% or nah 😿

[orchid flower]

That’ll only put you at 110

[idle shard]

what did i possibly miss then 😭

[twilit wing]

and having to be that good at a boss makes it easier to || radiant || + you can || overcharm ||

[runic island]

oh yeah ||overcharming|| would be good for ||radiant|| bosses

[orchid flower]

I ironically only really used it twice

[idle shard]

i still need 2400 of the thingies and the ||masks||

and ofc what im doing rn

dont tell me thatll put me at 111

[orchid flower]

||Abs Rad|| was the only one that took a significant amount of time, I also did it for ||Markoth|| cause I knew it would be tough

[twilit wing]

ok we get it ur cracked at the game

[orchid flower]

I’m just saying I think it’s a little overrated😅

Sorry if it seems like I’m showing off

[orchid flower]

That’ll be 111

[idle shard]

NOOO 😭

[twilit wing]

its fun tho, you can run stuff like || quick slash, mark of pride, shaman stone, steady body and soul eater for abs rad ||

[midnight pelican]

Drop

Ch xj2.aad

Pr xj2.aad

w

[orchid flower]

If you’re currently at 108;

||Last mask is 1, 2400 Essence is 1, Pantheon 4 is 1||

[idle shard]

maybe 1 more ||charm notch|| 😭

[orchid flower]

Those don’t contribute

[orchid flower]

Yeah that’s exactly what I did haha

[idle shard]

wait whats the max masks?

[orchid flower]

9

[idle shard]

oh okay okay

wth am i missing then 😭

i want 112

watahelly

[orchid flower]

Could u show ur inventory?

I could tell you

[idle shard]

OH THE JOURNAL?

maybe that

[orchid flower]

No it’s not that

[idle shard]

??

a

alr wait

[orchid flower]

U need to upgrade ||Howling Wraiths||

[idle shard]

thats possible?

😭

[orchid flower]

Mhm

[idle shard]

ahaaaa

thank you so much kind person

[orchid flower]

No problem!

[idle shard]

okay then im all good normally

if i ever get through this friggin ||pantheon||

[gilded fern]

hi where is ||quirrel|| for the fight?

[orchid flower]

He’ll be there even if he’s not here, I’m not sure what events would lead to him not being here if this is the first time you’ve been in this room tho

[gilded fern]

i went in and hes not there?

i went to fight the jelly alone

not knowing what to do

[orchid flower]

He doesn’t fight with you until a cycle or two in

Just wait

[gilded fern]

ah so i need to dodge the annoying electricity? i die in the first cycle

||i have ismas tear||

[orchid flower]

Yeah if you died instantly then you didn’t get to see everything haha

[gilded fern]

what can i do

[orchid flower]

Not die instantly

You just have to dodge

[gilded fern]

this fight and ||no eyes|| i cant dodge even tho the boss doesnt attack directly

[gusty siren]

Hey guys, so how do u advance in the || garden place|| it seems like every platform, I just can't reach it, I just saw || hornet I think || do I need some ability from ||the crossroads||

[hollow sluice]

this guy is really hard am i under geared to fight him?

[orchid flower]

Well it takes practice! When the electricity trails after you just keep running away and when all the little circles spawn get out of the way

[orchid flower]

It’s the hardest non-DLC boss, you’re just gonna struggle on it

If u want to show ur inventory and charms I can tell you if you should come back later

[hollow sluice]

so just fight till win?

[orchid flower]

are u talking about ||Greenpath||?

[orchid flower]

Come back later

[hollow sluice]

damn bro instant

[orchid flower]

Yeah come back later

[hollow sluice]

ight

so the ||city of tears dreamer 2 right?||

i need to go there

?

[orchid flower]

If you want to progress the main quest yes

[hollow sluice]

also how do i upgrade my nail

do i go to the ||blacksmith?||

also how much does it cost

[exotic wharf]

||go right after the elevator in the city of tears||

[orchid flower]

The same way you did it the first time

You can return to him with your ||pale ore||

[hollow sluice]

i have 2 now do i ugprade twice?

[exotic wharf]

||from the hollow knight statue go full on right and you'll find an artist||

[gilded fern]

nvm that was easy, i just wall jumped and dodged everything

[orchid flower]

It costs more each time

You’ll have enough for one upgrade

[exotic wharf]

congratulations

[gilded fern]

how to ppl clear this without ||ismas tear||

[orchid flower]

Very well placed ||crystal dash||

That’s how I did it on my first playthrough actually

Cause I didn’t realize ||Isma’s Tear|| was a thing

[exotic wharf]

||just a crystal dash from the left wall ||

[exotic wharf]

that's strange

I high key get impressed by people who played hk without getting spoilers

hollow knight

[gilded fern]

idk if im ready to fight ||dreamer|| now

[orchid flower]

Yeah my blind playthrough had a few ||acid|| skips

[exotic wharf]

well it's nice knowing this isn't spoilers

[exotic wharf]

it is a difficult fight

especially this one

[acoustic sigil]

Cause it's the game name

[gusty siren]

Yh yh

[stray furnace]

how many staggers does it take for|| lost kin ||to die

[exotic wharf]

so be ready for it

[orchid flower]

You just have to keep moving forward

No other abilities necessary

[exotic wharf]

pretty sure they're over 5

[drifting crag]

how

[acoustic sigil]

||Staggers are based on hits not damage, so it depends on your nail damage||

[stray furnace]

dude i cant even get him to 4 staggers

[orchid flower]

It depends on how much damage you’re doing

[stray furnace]

2 upgrades on nail?

[acoustic sigil]

In metroidvanias such as Hollow Knight, you collect upgrades as you play, allowing you to reach new areas. If you don't think you can reach somewhere, you probably can't. Come back later when you have an upgrade that allows you to reach it.

[orchid flower]

There are other ways to go

[drifting crag]

and where

[exotic wharf]

well if you want tips for him I'll give you

[orchid flower]

I’m not gonna do the calculation for you sorry😅

The idea is it’s impossible to tell how many staggers the boss has. Just go until you win

[drifting crag]

i js wanna get the desh move

[gusty siren]

I keep trying to jump to where I saw ||hornet|| but I can't get there or to other platforms near there

[exotic wharf]

yea but some stuff are spoilers but really really early stuff

[orchid flower]

She’s sometimes in spots you can’t reach directly. Just go where you can go

Don’t fixate on following her if you can’t

[stray furnace]

sure i have ||no summons no iframes and no quick slash ||

[gilded fern]

[exotic wharf]

[gilded fern]

why didnt i get anything from the ||temple||

[exotic wharf]

you don't

[gilded fern]

thats dumb why did i bother doingit

[stray furnace]

shouldnt that be spoilered

lol

[exotic wharf]

no iframes?

[drifting crag]

||How do i get the dash abil||

[stray furnace]

||shade cloak||

[exotic wharf]

go right

[drifting crag]

how long

[exotic wharf]

show me your inventory so I don't spoil something for you

[exotic wharf]

very long

[drifting crag]

is the forest kngiht guy very long?

if i get to him

[exotic wharf]

||until grass meets the eye more than stone breaks the heart ||

[drifting crag]

what

[stray furnace]

charm or regular

[exotic wharf]

both

[hollow sluice]

i can sell these right?

[exotic wharf]

yep

but only sell them if you're about to spend them

yk how to spoiler mark?

[exotic wharf]

I'm assuming you are using your ||spells?||

||just make sure you are actually using the spells if not you should change the build ||

[stray furnace]

im not atm i actually do worse

hollow knight controls are um

shit

[exotic wharf]

okay this is gonna be long

[stray furnace]

ill put it at that

[pliant furnace]

you can change them

[stray furnace]

dude im not a rockhead

[pliant furnace]

mb

[stray furnace]

for example all of the ||spell|| keys are the same

[exotic wharf]

||go to leg eater and buy the strength charm||

[stray furnace]

you cant change that

theres no mouse to aim

[stray furnace]

that would be useful yeah

[exotic wharf]

then use this charm set up

||steady body breakable strength mark of pride and grub song||

[stray furnace]

thats actually a smart loadout since ||mark of pride|| buffs vertical hitbox too

that is super useful for computer

[pliant furnace]

have you tried just spamming ||d dark|| on him?

[stray furnace]

since computer controls suck as i said

[stray furnace]

if only it were that easy lol

[exotic wharf]

||and for the balloons||

[pliant furnace]

i did that and it worked

so idk

[exotic wharf]

although there is something if you get it will change the fight a lot but it's a big spoiler

[orchid flower]

Well I don’t really like giving this advice to someone struggling to defeat a boss. If they’re getting their shit rocked they’re gonna need that soul for healing instead

[stray furnace]

there is no healing window for this boss

you need really good intuition to sneak in 1-2

even

[exotic wharf]

he doesn't have that

[orchid flower]

||Dive|| is the same

Effectively

[gilded fern]

bro i dont get anything and ||everyone in crossroads explodes now||? i regret doing the ||temple||, huge scam

[stray furnace]

||dive|| has a shit hitbox

in terms of vertical

and you dont get iframes for the entire duration

Aka death sentence

[orchid flower]

If you’re really getting frustrated you can just come back later

[exotic wharf]

||less iframes+ wouldn't be as effective because of the second hit of d dark||

[exotic wharf]

you'll get used to it 🙂

||but there is nothing to do in crossroads pretty sure so no reason to stress||

[gilded fern]

i still havent fought that|| jumpy spider||, i faced it early on and gave up

[exotic wharf]

jumpy spider?

🧍🏻

I think I know what you mean

||the thing that has it's arena unleveled right?||

[buoyant quarry]

i think i just softlocked myself in ||beast den after killing herrah the beast||

[orchid flower]

You can find an exit

[exotic wharf]

no you can get back just keep looking

[orchid flower]

Just look around

[buoyant quarry]

i have killed everything and cant find an exit ||i got trapped by these guys ||and didnt get the ||cutscene ||with ||hornet||

[orchid flower]

The cutscene with ||Hornet|| isn’t needed to leave

You have to find a breakable floor next to a bench

If you haven’t seen that you haven’t explored everything

[buoyant quarry]

wdym bench 😭

[orchid flower]

You haven’t looked around enough if you don’t know what I mean

[exotic wharf]

||just look up a yt video on where to go after hera ||

that should explain it for you better

[gilded fern]

uhh the one that shoots blobs i forgo

[exotic wharf]

yea

you can fight it

[gilded fern]

well idk what to do rn, go for the other 2 ||dreamers||?

[exotic wharf]

I'd recommend exploring areas you still haven't seen and upgrade everything

||the dreamers should be the last thing you think about when playing||

||get all masks upgrade abilities get charms and charm notches||

[sly sigil]

Guys how I can download silksong in my phone?

[exotic wharf]

||I shouldn't help you but just search hollow knight silksong port apk||

[sly sigil]

Bro can you give me link

[buoyant quarry]

thx i missed an entry

[exotic wharf]

no 🧍🏻

[sly sigil]

.

[exotic wharf]

you can't expect you'll get everything in a silver plate

[orchid flower]

These chats are more for help with ingame struggles, not many people here are particularly qualified to help with that sorta thing. Sorry

[strange moss]

||does defenders crest hurts bosses||

[orchid flower]

Mhm!

[hollow sluice]

hi i upgraded my nail

how do i get the next ||pale ore|| to upgrade

also how to find the artist?

[orchid flower]

They’re just sorta scattered about

I could give you all the locations if you’d like

[orchid flower]

He’s in ||Greenpath||

[hollow sluice]

yeah no im not going there

[hollow sluice]

hm later

[orchid flower]

Oki doki!

[hollow sluice]

ima start doing the second ||dreamer in the city of tears||

[spare wedge]

I got to ||pure vessel||

[orchid flower]

Great work!!

[spare wedge]

Ima prob die this is My third time

[orchid flower]

Have u practiced them in the ||Hall of Gods||?

[spare wedge]

Yeah but i always die

[orchid flower]

Well u should practice until u don’t die

That way u won’t have to restart the ||pantheon|| as much

[spare wedge]

Charms setup

Oh shoot..
