Spend the money
Can't lose what you don't have

[primal ibex]

Why

[odd tundra]

well you already lost 300 so…

[austere grotto]

I didn’t have enough to spend on anything

[odd tundra]

got nothing to lose

[crude cliff]

Than its not an amount worth worrying over

[austere grotto]

Ik, just annoying

[primal ibex]

Rare instance of ||zote’s precepts being actually good||

[crude cliff]

True
But you will come across plenty

[near forum]

Didn't even realise till you mentioned

[odd tundra]

||in one of the next areas you’ll find a way to get that back very easily||

[odd tundra]

yeah always ||gotta keep your cloak dry||

[near forum]

||I've lost 4000 before||

On my first playthrough

[odd tundra]

||one foe, one blow, am right||

[primal ibex]

Someone lost like 20k once

[crude cliff]

2000 was the most I ever lost

[near forum]

Oof

[primal ibex]

Me too

[crude cliff]

There have to be atleast a select few people who bought ||unbreakables in steel soul|| thats the same thing

[near forum]

||imagine griding for unbreakable charms and you die along the way||

[odd tundra]

i would kill myself again

[primal ibex]

What does that even achieve other than easier ||shade|| recovery

[odd tundra]

peace of mind

[fringe mortar]

I lost 3k but guess to who....

Its the most unfunniest thing ive ever done

To fucking ||massive moss charger||

[near forum]

||one of the big sentries in city||

[crude cliff]

The 2k I lost was to the ||room with 4 winged enemies under storeroom stag||

[near forum]

I lost my ||4k in colo||

[cobalt ingot]

people lose to that?!

[fringe mortar]

I did😭😭😭

At first

Like twice I think

[austere grotto]

Is ||Dashmaster|| good?

[crude cliff]

Easy retrieval moment?

[frigid helm]

Let’s goo

[crude cliff]

Or did you not know about it

[cobalt ingot]

GOATED

[primal ibex]

It is good for fast traversal but otherwise no

[fringe mortar]

If in a fight, no

[frigid helm]

I got ||howling wraiths||

[crude cliff]

Eh
I put it on when I got it
Off when I got other things later

[cobalt ingot]

I lost 15k geo to ||vengefly|| btw 😋

[odd tundra]

it gets outclassed later but good for the time being

[fringe mortar]

Oh god

[austere grotto]

Aight, I won’t use it since I want to be gud in a fight, is ||Thorns of Agony|| gud?

[primal ibex]

No

[odd tundra]

no

[fringe mortar]

I used to like it but ive been educated

[cobalt ingot]

if you don't have anything else than go for it but otherwise no

[ruby folio]

I personally like ||thorns|| but it probably isn’t the best

[wind geyser]

Me too ❤️

[primal ibex]

It makes your invincibility frames useless

[near forum]

||i benched in colo, but couldn't beat it. I went to hornet 2 and shade died there. Randomly thought "i am cool so i can do shadeless colo 2, even though hornet 2 has my shade". Turns out, I was wrong||

[odd tundra]

||it locks you into an animation whenever you take damage which makes it easier to get hit||

[near forum]

That's how i lost my money

[primal ibex]

Very smart

[austere grotto]

I’ll use it for now so I don’t have an unused ||notch||, then I’ll exchange it when I find something better

[odd tundra]

someone got ego checked…

[cobalt ingot]

LOLL

[primal ibex]

You have 4 ||notches||?

[wind geyser]

No more money

[austere grotto]

[odd tundra]

yeah it is

[crude cliff]

High skillfloor noobtrap

Sorta?

[primal ibex]

Apparently it increases your ||nail dps||

[fringe mortar]

Wait why do we hate it tho its good

[odd tundra]

equip ||shamans stone|| RIGHT NOW pretty please

[austere grotto]

Is ||soulcatcher|| actually useful? Cause it does nothing for me

[cobalt ingot]

fr it's good idk what they're on 😭

[near forum]

Get used to the recoil, saying it as an experienced noob

[primal ibex]

It makes me walk into everything

[fringe mortar]

Awwwww

[ruby folio]

It gives you more soul when you hit something

[zinc dove]

can i explore ||howling cliffs|| without ||mantis claws|| or should i get them first

[zinc dove]

yes very

[crude cliff]

I am using it rn

[primal ibex]

It good if you don’t have much else to use and for ||spell builds||

[crude cliff]

Yes

[odd tundra]

you can get to ||cliffs without claw?||

[near forum]

||How'd u even get there without claw||

[ruby folio]

You can do it in whatever order you like. There is a lot you can do without it

[crude cliff]

Dont think so?

[primal ibex]

I don’t think so

[ruby folio]

||its dashlocked|| not ||clawlocked||

[primal ibex]

You can’t

[zinc dove]

yeah ofcourse

[ruby folio]

U can

[odd tundra]

how?

[zinc dove]

from ||greenpath||

[cobalt ingot]

||greenpath way doesn't need claw right?||

[odd tundra]

no?

[crude cliff]

There are only shafts up

[austere grotto]

||I don’t like spells, I only use soul for healing||

[near forum]

||but need to climb upwards||

[crude cliff]

That makes it useful for that

[odd tundra]

fair enough

[ruby folio]

You can get there from ||greenpath|| it only requires ||dash||

[crude cliff]

No

[zinc dove]

if youre new i understand but ||spells are SO op||

[primal ibex]

You need ||claw|| too

[odd tundra]

no?

[austere grotto]

I’ll put it on then

[crude cliff]

There is a shaft after the ||baldur arena||

[austere grotto]

And if I need to, I’ll ||use a spell||

[near forum]

||even from greenpath near the baldur shell area, you need to climb up. Need claw||

[ruby folio]

Ok

[austere grotto]

I only have one ||spell||, so maybe my opinion will change

[odd tundra]

my rando knowledge from 3 years ago started going haywire with the ||cliffs|| question

[near forum]

||nail-fireball-nail is faster than nail-nail-fireball, use it||

[near forum]

It's actually true

One animation cancels out the other
I read it somewhere

[austere grotto]

I only have ||Vengful Spirit|| rn!

[spring mesa]

|| Early game spells are a huge source of damage. While your nail at the beginning does 5 damage, a vengeful spirit cast does 15 damage, 20 with shaman stone||

[crude cliff]

Very very lategame spoilers ||anyone know the hp of absrad phase 1, counting 6 phases total||

[odd tundra]

||fireball is the fan name for vs||

[near forum]

||yes that's the fireball||

[austere grotto]

Oh

I’ll use it if I need to

[odd tundra]

it does triple your ||nail damage||

[austere grotto]

Ik, I said what I said

[odd tundra]

wiki?

[primal ibex]

||vengeful spirit without shaman is 3x old nail dmg btw||

[austere grotto]

I’m going to use it if I feel like I need to, I’ve used it a bit before so yeah, imma play HK now

[odd tundra]

|| old nail, white spells, all bindings ||

[near forum]

||I'm curious cuz I've not reached abs rad yet. How hard is she compared to radiance||

[crude cliff]

If I had pc those mods would be on my to do list

Eventually

[primal ibex]

Much harder

[odd tundra]

||absolute||

[near forum]

I see

[crude cliff]

Incredibely hard

[odd tundra]

same

[crude cliff]

Hardest boss across both games easily to me

[primal ibex]

One comparison I have is ||absrad is radiance on steroids and crack at the same time||

[spring mesa]

The attacks are like 2.5 times faster (dont take my word for it i pulled that number outta my ass, but the attacks are a lot faster)

[near forum]

Ok i see

[odd tundra]

so ||any rad?||

[spring mesa]

Every single drug known to mankind

[primal ibex]

That’s ||radiance on every legal drug in California|| probably

[odd tundra]

caffeine

[near forum]

I have one more question
I've been trying to beat ||the pantheons with all bindings and cannot get past pantheon 1 lmao. Should i give in and use everything cuz I'm curious about absrad||

[crude cliff]

I havent done that either
Just for comparison

[spare knot]

Elaborate

[spring mesa]

You should beat them normally first

[primal ibex]

Which ||pantheon|| are you on now?

[near forum]

1

[primal ibex]

||p5||?

[near forum]

Lol

[spare knot]

Oh?

[crude cliff]

Just do them normally

[opal jacinth]

.

[spare knot]

Don't do them with bindings now

[opal jacinth]

.

[crude cliff]

I was just today planning to do ||bindings||

[opal jacinth]

.

[odd tundra]

.

[spring mesa]

you can do || bindings later on, firstly focus on actually completing the pantheons ||

[crude cliff]

Know that this wont get you voice channel perms

[near forum]

But I'm bad
If i do them without bindings how will i improve

[primal ibex]

Spam

[opal jacinth]

.

[odd tundra]

!

[spare knot]

Do them normally, get used to them, then eventually do all bindings

[crude cliff]

They are not easy

[near forum]

Ok isee

[spare knot]

Stop

[opal jacinth]

i just wanna unlock vc

[primal ibex]

Stop spamming

[opal jacinth]

!

[primal ibex]

Just talk normally

[crude cliff]

This will permanently lock you out of vc

[opal jacinth]

why

[opal jacinth]

hmm

[crude cliff]

Well, do you think the server moderators want this, no, so its forbidden

[fringe mortar]

Tf do u mean why

[crude cliff]

No spamming to get to the message count

[golden flower]

ab's playstyle is not quite the same as normal ||pantheon|| clears
for that reason id advise against doing it first (good mental though)

[opal jacinth]

yea i mean i dont really care i just want have everyone using vc

[radiant mortar]

Snitch

[polar flicker]

Stop doing it that's it

[primal ibex]

Wdym, we’re just trying to follow rules

[polar flicker]

A mute will fully reset all ur progress back to 0

[crude cliff]

They are annoying us wym?

[opal jacinth]

ik

[spring mesa]

|| bindings are supposed to be something to challange yourself after you've already beat the pantheon. They're something additional ||

[radiant mortar]

Ik im ragebaiting

Also I forgot this was help

[near forum]

Just for info, do i get anything extra if i do first time all bindings? Bcuz that's what i thought

[primal ibex]

It’s 2 vertical bars (||)

[crude cliff]

No

[near forum]

Sad

[primal ibex]

None of the ||pantheons|| give anything except percentage

[opal jacinth]

[primal ibex]

Shift+backslash

On qwerty

You’ll find it pretty soon

Ty, I’ll finish my food and then find it

[austere grotto]

It’s three guys, so I kinda count it as three

any tips for getting through ||colo2||

[primal ibex]

Which enemies are you struggling with?

all the little shits that fly so probably most the ||trial|| 😔

[royal hull]

||is 5 masks, no nail upgrades, even the fix, no nail arts, just vengeful spirit and only mop/shaman and long nail as viable charms a bit too early for Colo 1 to 2?||

[royal hull]

Show inventory and charms

[austere grotto]

Okay, y’all were right, ||Vengful Spirit|| is pretty good

[primal ibex]

If you’re good maybe but normally no

[royal hull]

Pings off
Is it doable at least

[near forum]

||not the worst imo||

[golden flower]

if doable means possible, yes

[primal ibex]

Oh sorry I keep forgetting

[near forum]

Yes

[royal hull]

Pings off

[primal ibex]

Btw Ship ?tag noping might be useful

[austere grotto]

Okay, y’all were right, I was wrong, ||Vengful Spirit|| is pretty good, the only downside is that I have to think about if I want to use my ||Soul|| to heal or attack

[near forum]

||As a beginner, 3 nail hits give you enough soul for 1 heal/spell. The thumb rule i follow is to keep enough for 2 heals and use the last set for spell as soon as i have enough||

[crude cliff]

I just lost a ||p1ab|| run to ||oro & mato|| and reminded myself why I have been procrastinating ||bindings|| mostly tedious

[austere grotto]

Okey

[near forum]

||it's always the same for me. Those two have been trouble.||

[crude cliff]

Were you the one who hadnt done them ||bindingless||

[near forum]

Yep

That's me

[crude cliff]

They are significantly easier

Just to motivate you

[near forum]

Oh i see
Thanks

[austere grotto]

I like ||fireball||, I will use it, I just don’t think I’ll have a ||Spell build||

[crude cliff]

Or in other words
||p1ab|| is tedious and difficult

[crude cliff]

You dont need to

Just put on what you like

[primal ibex]

Just keep ||shaman|| in your build and it’s good

[austere grotto]

I don’t have enough ||notches|| to put it on without taking away other useful things

[primal ibex]

You have 6 right

It should be enough

[wheat bramble]

PING SORRY

[primal ibex]

And you can take it off when outside fights

[austere grotto]

Let’s go!!! I got the ||Mantis Claw||!!!

[primal ibex]

The ||great slash|| should one shot most of the flying ones

[austere grotto]

@grizzled spear, I got the ||Mantis Claw||!!!!

[near forum]

Is ||sharp shadow|| that good?

Via message search feature

[indigo axle]

Ohhh, yeah! That's right, thanks

[indigo axle]

[grizzled spear]

Meee

[indigo axle]

Ohh, yes!

Were you able to kill him?

[wind cave]

What the worm like boss called? The ||fluke smth?||

[grizzled spear]

I AM STUCK RIGHT THERE FOR THE ||DOUBLE JUMP||

[dusky sleet]

||Flukemarm?||

[grizzled spear]

It's just below the ||mantis village||

Its the one thats bigger version of the annoying enemies in ||waterways||

[austere grotto]

[grizzled spear]

I skipped him

[dusky sleet]

||flukemarm||

[wind cave]

Ah alr, is it in ||waterways||?

[dusky sleet]

Probably

[wind cave]

I mean it would make sense, but i feel like ive been all over down there and havent found it

[dusky sleet]

||its more buttom-left area||

[grizzled spear]

How to beat ||flukemarm||, the flukes dont stop coming

[wind cave]

So its not in ||waterways||?

[grizzled spear]

It is

[wind cave]

Where is it at?

[dusky sleet]

||bottom-left area of waterways*||

[wind cave]

Ah alr ty

[wind cave]

Do you know a specific area in ||waterways|| where it is?

[golden flower]

what is your nail called

[grizzled spear]

Yeah

[wind cave]

Alr ty

[grizzled spear]

Just below the resting place in ||waterways||

Then left

[wind cave]

Ah alr ty, ill see if i can find it yesterday

[grizzled spear]

Don't fall in the pit, there's a pit. It's above the pit you need to ||a
Dash|| through a broken plank

[wind cave]

Ill try to find it tysm

[austere grotto]

Am I ready for the ||Mantis Lords?||

[grizzled spear]

I'll recommend to upg your nail before encountering him

[austere grotto]

[grizzled spear]

Yeah, you don't need anything special to beat him

Chill out

[buoyant owl]

They’re not too hard you should be able to beat em

[austere grotto]

Okay, I’m just making sure, better to be careful than dead

[grizzled spear]

You can respawn 😭

[austere grotto]

I’ll probably die a few times and learn attacks

[crude cliff]

Him?

[indigo axle]

@grizzled spear and @frigid helm ||I found out the easiest method to kill him, you need to dodge a lot and recite only the first magic. Try to be as close as possible when he jumps and releases his balls from the bottom up, when he jumps, jump back and then come back by dashing, standing slightly above his head and falling next to him, hit him and step back, shoot about 3 times the first magic, and continue in the same spirit, but do not stand right from the edge of the arena, he jumps mostly to the edge and it happens very quickly, you may not have time to escape||

[grizzled spear]

It's just that, the resting place is far away from the boss

[austere grotto]

But it’s a bit of a trek from the bench, that’s all

[grizzled spear]

WILL TRY THIS!

[grizzled spear]

Yeah

[austere grotto]

Plus there are a bunch of enemies in the way

[indigo axle]

You can also kill his spirits and shoot at him

[austere grotto]

I’m going to try now, be back once I kill them

[grizzled spear]

You dodge em, if you have good movement

[indigo axle]

But don't try to stay in the air for long, he jumps very fast, you just won't have time to move away

[grizzled spear]

Notedd

[wind cave]

How many ||pale ore|| does the 3rd ||nail upgrade|| cost?

Each one costs more then the other

[indigo axle]

Often stand near the edge, they will roll towards you and hit the wall, and so they will stop circling

[buoyant owl]

Where r u

[indigo axle]

Hit them near the wall and jump up if there's another ball coming at you from behind

[grizzled spear]

[buoyant owl]

Who’s ||mask guy||

[wind cave]

Where do i find the ||king mark ||thingy? Is it smth to do with ||hornet v2||?

[supple mountain]

yes

exactly

it's the reward

[wind cave]

Ah alr well that nice to know

[indigo axle]

Artefact?

[prime current]

||The three masks on the map. IT's been a while so I can't remember the names tbh, I defeated the Spider I think but thats it||

[supple mountain]

yw np

[indigo axle]

If it is, then it must be near the arena

[wind cave]

Where might she be?

[prime current]

There's a part of the map I can't get to because I'm missing a type of movement. I remember that, but everytime I pick up the game, I get discouraged because I haven't been able to progress

[supple mountain]

far right of the map

i won't spoil it

[buoyant owl]

Oh! Well they’re core parts in the progression. Every YouTube or online guide will get you there. Follow literally anything you find and I bet it’ll work.

[supple mountain]

but if you want to go there go down and right in ||king's station||

under a wall

[wind cave]

Alr ty

[prime current]

Yeah I mean I guess I'll just watch a video or something. I genuinely have been running around for probably the last couple hours of gameplay and haven't been able to get further...

[buoyant owl]

GL

[austere grotto]

Got to 2nd phase

[dusky sleet]

Of who

[austere grotto]

||Mantis Lords|| it was my second try as well

[dusky sleet]

Oh, great job then

[austere grotto]

Second phase is actually really hard

It’s so fast and I can’t find a good spot to heal

[wind cave]

When they send out the rings if ur almost perfectly in the middle u can heal on both variations of it

[austere grotto]

Ah, I see

This is my load out as well

[wind cave]

Thats when i healed atleast

[karmic glade]

i was going to say "you could also try jumping over them and healing" but i forgot we arent talking silksong lmao

not using ||shaman stone||

rookie mistake

you'll grow out of it

[wind cave]

||I mean if u have anything else and can find ur way without compass maybe switch gathering swarm and compass for some attack charm or sum||

[austere grotto]

I think I want to swap out a few things.

[crude cliff]

With your problem I would put on ||stallwart instead of compass and swarm||

[austere grotto]

Probably ||Quick Focus|| so I don’t have to be as perfect

[wind cave]

If ur not confident in healing ||quick focus is good||

[wind cave]

Exactly

[crude cliff]

||quickfocus shaman|| is a good combo

[blazing spoke]

Any tips for ||watcher knights||

[gloomy stirrup]

Play difensive

For me

[gloomy stirrup]

||Compass op||

[wind cave]

Lwk true

[gloomy stirrup]

🔥

[austere grotto]

Should this be good? Or should I exchange something for ||Longnail||

[prime current]

Okay, I think I finally remembered. Where do I find ||ground smash?|| unsure what it's called just know that I'm missing that function

[gloomy stirrup]

Yeah for What you have is good

[gloomy stirrup]

I love your cat 🐈

I also had one in past

[patent mauve]

Just wondering, im looking to get into speedrunning 1221 but ive noticed that the mouse keybinds are kinda buggy, is there a way to fix this?

[gloomy stirrup]

||Desolate dive you can find it in City of Tears||

[prime current]

Thank you, I must be missing somewhere there. I'll try and look around again

[gloomy stirrup]

No problem

[sly sparrow]

Who is this???

[gloomy stirrup]

||Look around the right zone of city, where you find lemm||

[indigo axle]

Boss

[gloomy stirrup]

||A dream boss||

[indigo axle]

That can be found in green biome

[hoary depot]

||Marmuuuu||

[sly sparrow]

Thanks

[indigo axle]

I found it yesterday

[sly sparrow]

!!

[crude cliff]

Also
When you find it
Explore a little further
Makes the runback easier

[wind cave]

Where is that?

[random swallow]

quenns garden

[wind cave]

Ah, how do i get there?

[indigo axle]

Ohh, that's right!

[random swallow]

a couple of paths mine was used ||with ismas tears||

[wind cave]

Alr ty

[gloomy stirrup]

I remember From ||Fog canyon||

[wind cave]

Okayyy ill go around there then ty

[gloomy stirrup]

Np

[random swallow]

also go to|| fog canyon|| and fin tha|| area witha giant spike mass and|| swim under and boom but you need i||smas tears||

[indigo axle]

Good luck

[prime current]

rip I did have it, and now I'm back to being lost again

[random swallow]

anyways i almost beat the ||watcher knights||

[indigo axle]

Where are you?

[indigo axle]

Yeee, go on, don't give up

You can use your first spell to knock them all

[prime current]

this is what my map looks like

[gloomy stirrup]

If you want I can send you the location on the map

[prime current]

im honestly not sure "where I am" in the story

[indigo axle]

What are you looking for?

[random swallow]

gotcha

[prime current]

trying to get to the next point of progression

[gloomy stirrup]

||city of tears for dive||

[prime current]

no I did find it

I was mistaken

[gloomy stirrup]

You find it?

[indigo axle]

Congratulations then

[prime current]

I'm trying to figure out how to get to here

I thought I needed the ||dive|| to progress still but I already had it

[gloomy stirrup]

For the one on the right you need ||ismas tear|| for the left one you need ||royal waterways entrance so a simple key||

[ripe dagger]

rip

so annoying

[gloomy stirrup]

Yeah a lot of things

[prime current]

I was in the ||waterways|| but I felt like I kept running in circles or dead ends

[crude cliff]

For the left one there are other paths

[prime current]

that's what I explored down there already

[gloomy stirrup]

Oh nice go where you defeated ||dung defender||

[prime current]

Yeah all three paths that I can see on the map are all inaccessible

[indigo axle]

Well

[crude cliff]

Not all are

[indigo axle]

||You can get to the dreamer from the left side of the city of tears, if i am not mistaken, There's a long hallway and you can get to the dreamer by passing it||

[crude cliff]

Bottom right being an example

Top right of that shaft too

[indigo axle]

There should also be a bench nearby

[crude cliff]

No

You open that from the other side

[indigo axle]

Ohhh, my bad

[gloomy stirrup]

Nope, ||lurien is protected by the watcher knights and they are on the right of city, where is kings station||
(Don't read if you didn't finish the game)

[prime current]

yeah I think I figured that out at least

[indigo axle]

I did finish it:)

[gloomy stirrup]

Was a warning for others

[indigo axle]

I also killed the vampire yesterday

[indigo axle]

By the way, is this a reference to one of the series?

[gloomy stirrup]

I open that area from ||royal waterways after dung defender||

[gloomy stirrup]

Helluva boss?

Yeah

[indigo axle]

I remember there was a cartoon series and there was a similar vampire

[gloomy stirrup]

Maybe

[indigo axle]

Ohhh, yeaah!

[gloomy stirrup]

Maybe just a little to a character yeah

[indigo axle]

Undestood

[prime current]

is that here? i dont remember it's been too long since I last played

[gloomy stirrup]

Now you are planning on 112%?

[gloomy stirrup]

Yes

[austere grotto]

I swapped ||Quick Focus|| for ||Longnail||

[indigo axle]

||I want to find the path of pain, but I do not know where it is, and I also want to meet the hollow knight who is in white armor, the prime version||

[crude cliff]

Know that those arent in the same place

[indigo axle]

||Now I'm stuck in a green biome, where a kid with a bag on his head and a praying mantis is waiting for me||

[gloomy stirrup]

||path of pain don't give % at all but is fun and it's in white palace, the hollow knight prime is only for pantheon 4 and 5||

[crude cliff]

Very very lategame question
||radiant sly phase 2||
Tips?

[gloomy stirrup]

I stayed on defense

[crude cliff]

As in?

[indigo axle]

||may i know what you mean by pantheon? ||

[gloomy stirrup]

And attack on the right time

[gloomy stirrup]

Nah, only at 100%

Now focus on do that

[indigo axle]

[prime current]

omg thank you

I'm somewhere I havent been yet

[indigo axle]

Nice!

[gloomy stirrup]

Trust me, if you don't have all you will fill pain

[indigo axle]

The bench will update the map for you

[gloomy stirrup]

[gloomy stirrup]

Nice you are on the right side

[prime current]

yeah I don't have a key though 🙁

[indigo axle]

Huh?

[gloomy stirrup]

You don't need keys

[indigo axle]

Was there a need for a key?

[prime current]

oh there was a room that said it had a simple lock on it

and then I died

so I have to get back there now

[gloomy stirrup]

Maybe the ||hot spring||

[gloomy stirrup]

You don't need a key for the ||dreamer section||

[indigo axle]

Ohh, i see

@random swallow yoo bro, how you doing?

Managed to kill them all?

[random swallow]

no almost i got them down to two but then i died

its very hard to heal

[gloomy stirrup]

||hi can someone help me im stuck here and i dont have double jump and the train pls||

[random swallow]

||watcher knights||

[gloomy stirrup]

Oh yeah they are hard

At the start

[indigo axle]

||Try not to waste your soul on the first knight, waste it when there are two of them and start shooting like crazy||

[fierce fulcrum]

How do i make image spoilers ?

[gloomy stirrup]

But if you adapt to their patterns are easy

[random swallow]

[fierce fulcrum]

Ok ok ty bro

[indigo axle]

You're supposed to be born on a bench

[fierce fulcrum]

[dusky whale]

?tag gitgud

[languid radish]

Please Do Not Give Unhelpful Advice In general, try to be as encouraging and constructive while providing tips to new players struggling throughout the game. Snarky remarks like "git gud" or "skill issue" or "just kill it" provide players with zero constructive feedback on how to progress throughout the game. If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all

[indigo axle]

Then turn to the left side

[gloomy stirrup]

GITGUD

[hoary depot]

Donc tu peut grimper, c’est un peut dificile mais c’est definement possible (Je mexcuse pour mon grammaire terrible)

[indigo axle]

And then leave this area by re-logging into the game

[fierce fulcrum]

Yes I see a lot of spike

Ok ok ty

[fierce fulcrum]

[dusky whale]

He has the ||trampass||

[indigo axle]

Wow, is that Italian?

[gloomy stirrup]

Where did you lost the ||shade?||

[indigo axle]

Damn, you have only 2 geo

[dusky whale]

Can I send a spoiler image

[fierce fulcrum]

Yes

[fierce fulcrum]

Im cooked right ?

[austere grotto]

I feel like I’m close to defeating ||The Mantis Lords||, got to second phase a lot and take little damage, I just mess up a bit and tada: DEATH.

[round mirage]

Where am I supposed to go for ||the Grey mourner||

[gloomy stirrup]

Maybe😅

[austere grotto]

[dusky whale]

Hetr

[indigo axle]

Nooo

[dusky whale]

Go toward the purple thing

[fierce fulcrum]

I cant go the the right part

I tried

[dusky whale]

Why

What is not letting you

[fierce fulcrum]

Skill issue i guess

[indigo axle]

The kid with the bag on his head helped me kill the boss today

[dusky whale]

You just go down and right

[livid shoal]

||You can't get to stag without wings||

[dusky whale]

So you killed him

[gloomy stirrup]

||Heal when they do the disc attack|| and play speedy, you need to follow their movements

[dusky whale]

Oh

So he is stuck

[gloomy stirrup]

Yea

[indigo axle]

I'm not that cruel, we died together😂 😂 😂

[dusky whale]

You ||cant get wings without cdash||

[austere grotto]

I’m doing that, I just mess up with healing and avoiding in phase 2

[fierce fulcrum]

I cant go up

[dusky whale]

Ok

[austere grotto]

But I’m getting better

[indigo axle]

Ohh...

[dusky whale]

Do you have a long purple ||crystal dash||

[gloomy stirrup]

Keep it up buddy

[dusky whale]

Like the s button

[round sorrel]

east side of ||resting grounds, there’s a breakable wall above a chest somewhere there ||

[round mirage]

No like her quest

[gloomy stirrup]

||I think he have to do a boss time😅||

[austere grotto]

You need ||the Mantis Claw|| I would think

[round mirage]

I found her

Do I go to ||queens gardens?||

[round sorrel]

ahh lmao

[gloomy stirrup]

Nope, ||monarch wings||

[dusky whale]

But he doesnt have ||cdash||

[fierce fulcrum]

No

[indigo axle]

||This is the first time I got lost, even with a compass.||

[gloomy stirrup]

But before he said he have it

[austere grotto]

Oh, I haven’t gotten those, so my thought is valid

[dusky whale]

Can you press the s button

How did you get here

[indigo axle]

@fierce fulcrum can you re-log into?

[dusky whale]

He tried

[round sorrel]

yeah u need to deliver uhh I think the ||delicate flower to a specific grave in queens gardens||

pretty sure it’s ||upper left side of queens gardens ||

[gloomy stirrup]

If he didn't have it he needs ||back tracking, rip||

[round mirage]

Do I have to fight ||traitor lord?||

[fierce fulcrum]

You mean the ||go down dash|| ?

[gloomy stirrup]

For ||true ending yes||

[round mirage]

Oh my god

[gloomy stirrup]

Nope

[round sorrel]

I mean technically no, but the room u need to enter is ||below that boss fight||

[fierce fulcrum]

Thé what

[round mirage]

So I do or don't?

[dusky whale]

Ok

Your stuck

[round sorrel]

I think u can ||enter that room without fighting traitor lord if u go via fog canyon||

[gloomy stirrup]

He needs for ||true ending||

[dusky whale]

Comment from random reddit ||Pogoing across all of the spikes that you would super dash across normally and dying at the very end. Then doing it again and trying to pogo off your shade to get up over the ledge at the end. then get monarch wings and open stag station as if you had super dash. It is very advanced and I have only seen insane speed runners do it and not necessarily first try. I only mentioned it for completeness and don’t consider it a real option in your situation. Keeping on trying to go up the broken elevator shaft will be your best bet. It is tricky, but I am sure you can get there! Best of luck.||

[indigo axle]

||I'm sorry if you lost your money, I didn't know you'd need wings there...||

[round mirage]

K thank goodness

[indigo axle]

Just to buy this station

[dusky whale]

Best option is to get up

[blazing spoke]

Where is ||the white lady|| on the map

[dusky whale]

From where you fell

[dusky whale]

||Queen garden||

[fierce fulcrum]

Ok ok i will try

[dusky whale]

It is possible but hard

[blazing spoke]

I mean where in ||queen garden||

[gloomy stirrup]

I think you don't have it

[dusky whale]

Next to || traitor lord|| if I remember

Go up and to left

[blazing spoke]

Is ||traditor lord|| perhaps after a ton of platforming?

[gloomy stirrup]

Yes, so he is needed for ||white lady||

[dusky whale]

Yes

[blazing spoke]

..

[gloomy stirrup]

Yes

[gloomy stirrup]

Good luck

[blazing spoke]

i suck at platforming

[dusky whale]

It is left of alot of platforming

Show me map

[sage smelt]

[gloomy stirrup]

||Traitor lord is no there 😔🙏🏻||

I remember he is up

[blazing spoke]

okay

[dusky whale]

Go left and up

Dont go down

[gloomy stirrup]

Oh I remembered right

[dusky whale]

Go to ||void||, and search for a secrer area while having the charm

[gloomy stirrup]

Ralsei fluffy boy you need to ||Return into the Abyss||

[round mirage]

I have 6k and nothing to spend it on

In hollow knight

Not irl 😭

[dusky whale]

You will get something to spend it on

Dont worry

It would be sonething too good also

But it costs like double that

[round mirage]

But I have everything from ||sly leg eater salubra cornifer and bapanada woman||

[dusky whale]

What is bapanada woman

The one that sells charms?

[round mirage]

||iselda||

[dusky whale]

Once you get to end game

You will find something really good

[round mirage]

I am endgame 😭

[dusky whale]

I'm back on the save

[dusky whale]

That is mid game

[round mirage]

[indigo axle]

The way he came

Tell him where he fell

He should be able to jump on the walls

[round mirage]

Is it ||divine||

[dusky whale]

It is hard

She stole my strength charm

[dusky whale]

He did that

[dusky whale]

So he should just climb up
