No way

How to fight || white poop guy ||

[acoustic sigil]

||Go to poop guy arena ||

[lucid igloo]

Is there a way to skip the credits

[crude cliff]

You need to have done a certain objective

[ocean gazelle]

whats in here?

and how do i get there?

[indigo axle]

Wow

[ocean gazelle]

what is it?

i thought i had to do all the ||pantheons|| but i alr did 4 and im working on 5 and still wont work

[serene trail]

Its || lifeblood to help with pantheons || you get there by || doing pantheons with bindings ||

[ocean gazelle]

can i just do all the ||bindings on p1?||

i can go do it rn if thats all i gotta do

[serene trail]

you need || eight bindings for the first amount of lifeblood || so you’ll need to do || p1 and p2 ||

[ocean gazelle]

oh alr

[serene trail]

Every big circle || upgrades the amount of lifeblood you get ||

[ocean gazelle]

alr

[brave herald]

||this works like dice from sk?||

[golden flower]

yes, chance is much higher

[brave herald]

is it worth it or nah?

[golden flower]

wouldnt say so
-# its also just boring

[brave herald]

||3 notches is too much imo||

i'd better go with smth else

[quasi lantern]

Guys why when i kill || white defender i can give him another fight again || is it important

[wheat bramble]

[indigo axle]

||Try to kill him by using the first magic, jump and recite the spell|| @smoky frigate

[dusky sleet]

||The one where u got Dream Nail||

[wheat bramble]

okkkk

[indigo axle]

When he is about to release his balls

[gloomy stirrup]

For me ||Elder huu (on fungal wastes) or Xero (on resting grounds)||

[ocean gazelle]

cant even get to you cuz you decided to put ||sly, zote, and failed champ|| almost back to back >:(

[dusky sleet]

Oh right i forgor about ||Elder||

[gloomy stirrup]

Pancake man

[wheat bramble]

is he easier?

[gloomy stirrup]

Yeah

[dusky sleet]

Easiest boss in the entire game no kidding

[ocean gazelle]

what abt ||mossy?||

[gloomy stirrup]

Of the ||dream|| ones

[ocean gazelle]

alr

[dusky sleet]

Imo hes still easier than ||Moss one||

[gloomy stirrup]

Pet the ||mossy!||

[gloomy stirrup]

Nah ||mossy|| 1 move and he is done 😔

At least ||elder has 2 patterns of pancakes||

[dusky sleet]

Only if u have ||sbody|| or || upgraded nail|| otherwise he locks u near the wall and damages u

[dusky sleet]

||mossy|| either rushes or jumps, so he got 2 aswell

[gloomy stirrup]

I dove it without ||sbody neither upgraded nail||

And in ||P1 and 5|| he is beaten in just 5 seconds bruh 😔

[dusky sleet]

No way u kill a boss within 5s

[gloomy stirrup]

The world record on ||p5|| if I'm not correct is like 12 minutes so is possible

[low escarp]

What?!? ||P5|| in 5 minutes?!?

[gloomy stirrup]

||https://youtu.be/vkkQN3cdSBk?si=n0_1-OtBbVhIzFT-||

[gloomy stirrup]

12 minutes sorry

[gloomy stirrup]

Only for 112% players

[low escarp]

Ha all good

[gloomy stirrup]

Still ||mossy|| is possible in 5-10 sec

[low escarp]

Agreed. I forget ||mossy is even in P5|| the fight is over so quick

[austere grotto]

I’ve gotten pretty consistent at first phase

Of the ||Mantis Lords||

[gloomy stirrup]

||Mossy|| is still the easiest but look at ||elder|| is melted by the TAS 😭🙏🏻

[gloomy stirrup]

Nice

[obsidian spoke]

"respect your elders" ain't helping this time

[austere grotto]

Second phase is really hard and fast, I just need to get better

[gloomy stirrup]

Fr

[gloomy stirrup]

On my first try (like 1 month ago(yes I'm also new) I also struggled but don't let you down💪🏻

[austere grotto]

I try every day until I feel like I’m definitely getting worse, then I stop and try again the next day

[obsidian spoke]

Omg ||sisters of battle|| is so peak

[gloomy stirrup]

Yessir

[obsidian spoke]

I js can't seem to beat ||Abs rad at the end of P5||

Everything else I win

[drowsy sleet]

Just practice her then

[low escarp]

Right?!? One of my all time fav bosses

[gloomy stirrup]

Practice on her

[obsidian spoke]

Her ||orbs|| are so annoying!

[drowsy sleet]

You’re telling me

I’m going blind I can’t differentiate them from the background

But if I can do it so can you

You can always also ||descending dark|| to dodge them

[obsidian spoke]

True...

[gloomy stirrup]

Damn ||flukemarm|| is that strong?

[obsidian spoke]

They tried to nerf it but it's js too good

[gloomy stirrup]

OP 🗣️

[obsidian spoke]

I personally don't use it because I'm js not good enough to utilise it like TAS does

[zinc dove]

its so op bro

[supple mountain]

it is only good because the hitboxes of the attack just stay there, so if you have an enemy inside of that hitbox then the take like 100dps or something bullcrap like that
Casually, it's bad

[wet thistle]

Can somone give me a good charm build with this(i need compas)

[supple mountain]

for?

exploring or a boss

||Compass, Quick Slash, Soul Catcher|| for exploration

[wet thistle]

what about for bosses

[supple mountain]

Or you could swap out ||Soul Catcher|| for ||Grubsong, Gathering Swarm|| that's probably better

for bosses:

||Shaman Stone, Quick Slash||

OR
||Quick Slash, Mark of Pride||

[wet thistle]

k thanks

[supple mountain]

yw

[austere grotto]

I beat the first phase with only one damage from the ||Mantis Lords||

[supple mountain]

nice

[quasi lantern]

Guyes

[supple mountain]

are you early game

[austere grotto]

*three

[quasi lantern]

||To get unbreakable strength i should pay 9000 right ??? ||

[supple mountain]

15,000

[quasi lantern]

Why 15000

[supple mountain]

get to grinding 😊

Because Team Cherry hates you

now get to work

(also it's the best charm in the game)

[quasi lantern]

Any grinding places or tips

[austere grotto]

Team cherry has a love/hate relationship with us

[supple mountain]

||Colosseum 2|| gives about 2000 geo every 5-10 minutes if you lock in

easily the best geo/s

[quasi lantern]

Wait

I will sell my things

[supple mountain]

you get tons of geo form that

[quasi lantern]

[supple mountain]

niice

[austere grotto]

I am getting slowly better

[frigid helm]

I’m here rn

Where do I go

[austere grotto]

[frigid helm]

This ain’t the one

[frigid helm]

[supple mountain]

we all started somewhere, i died to ||false knight||, but know i slay gods.

hitles

s

because i feel like it

[austere grotto]

I

Will

Become

A really good HK player

[quasi lantern]

Is it worth it btw , I've still got a ||trial|| and couple|| of bosses ||

[vale dagger]

I died to ||hornet 2|| nearly 25 times and now I have done ||p5|| twice in a row, we infact all start somewhere

[austere grotto]

No matter how long it takes

[supple mountain]

any ||bindings||?

[quasi lantern]

||Hornet 2 was easy||

So guys is it worth it

[vale dagger]

No I got both ||endings|| then went to sk

Couldn't be bothered lol

[quasi lantern]

What's sk and tell me if || unbreakable strength is worth it ||

[spice condor]

It 100% is and sk is Silksong

[vale dagger]

||silksong, and yes||

[quasi lantern]

15 k is a lot

[untold girder]

Guys help the ||whispering root|| in ||infected crossroads|| keeps showing up on the map even after I’ve completed it and rested at several benches

[spice condor]

||I'd say get greed then Strenght||

[spice condor]

||I think thats just be a visual bug||

[untold girder]

How do I fix it

[quasi lantern]

What's greed

The money|| charm||

[spice condor]

||Unbreakable Greed||

[quasi lantern]

How much it will starts giving me?

[frigid helm]

I got pass

W

[spice condor]

||Well it costs like 8K iirc and I believe it doubles Geo intake||

Don't fully remember though

[quasi lantern]

And then i should spam t2 to buy the other one

[spice condor]

yeah

[neat karma]

9 not 8, and it doesnt double it

[quasi lantern]

I couldn't beat t3 , so hard

[round mirage]

Ug

[neat karma]

youre talking about?

[quasi lantern]

It's like 50-100% right

[quasi lantern]

|| trial 3 || fools ||

[neat karma]

||oh yeah 3 is too long and too hard to only give 1k more than trial 2, so yeah grind the second one||

[quasi lantern]

I've never won it actually

It's so hard

[neat karma]

well first of all ||greed doesnt affect colo if you were planning to use it there, and the charm works a bit weridly||

[neat karma]

its one of the last challenges people do in the game

[quasi lantern]

||Especially the part when there is spikes at the ground and those things that shoot 4 things show off ||

[neat karma]

basically it increases each ||geo coin dropped by 20% rounded up so it depends on the enemy but its not really that good||

[quasi lantern]

Owwww so i will just get || strength|| i already got like 15,999

And then what should i do 😭 ( bcs u said t3 is one of last challenges||

[neat karma]

well what else havent you done

[untold girder]

Do you know how to fix it, I’ve tried quit menu but it didn’t work

[supple mountain]

what's your situation

[spice condor]

||I've never experienced it, so unless you missed a bit of essence or a root I have no clue||

[supple mountain]

what's his situation?

[untold girder]

That’s weird…

[supple mountain]

what's the problem???

[spice condor]

||They say they have all the Essence Trees but it still shows up on the Crossroads map||

[supple mountain]

they did the one above right?

[frigid helm]

How do I get out

[supple mountain]

above me

[supple mountain]

of

[frigid helm]

||deepnest with pass||

[supple mountain]

go to the ||tram||

now that you can use it

[frigid helm]

Which one

[supple mountain]

the one near you

the one you sent a picture of

[untold girder]

Yes

[supple mountain]

fully?

[quasi lantern]

I didn't|| ( kill grimm I didn't get all the worms and I didn't kill collector and i didn't do the path of pain and pantheons || and maybe something else idk

[neat karma]

so do those

[supple mountain]

save me you coward

also i am NOT a worm

[quasi lantern]

||( i didn't kill the radiance and the hollow knight yet too ) ||

[supple mountain]

uninstall and reinstall

why do you care so much?

[neat karma]

i suggest doing ||hk first, right now if possible (If you care about achievements)||

[quasi lantern]

But if i kill him game finishes right

[supple mountain]

yes

then it resets

[neat karma]

yes, but your save isnt erased

[supple mountain]

no changes

[untold girder]

It makes me feel uncomfortable by the fact that there is just a random spot on the map with an icon

[quasi lantern]

Then i shouldn't

[neat karma]

you go back to playing as if nothing happened

literally right outside ||its arena as if you never killed them||

[quasi lantern]

No way 😭 there is a cutsene when he dissapears

[supple mountain]

like the Zelda games if you've ever played theme

[neat karma]

thing is ||if you do something before killing thk for the first time you will get locekd out of an achievement, so if you care about those, do it now||

[supple mountain]

not a big deal if you care about achievements

[neat karma]

true, but still

[supple mountain]

you have both a ||Steel soul|| and speedrun run to do those

||queens gardens||

save me on the way

[quasi lantern]

I mean || collector ||

[supple mountain]

do you have the key

[quasi lantern]

||I saved the most of u , I've already got the pale ore ||

[quasi lantern]

What key

[supple mountain]

that's also in ||queens gardens||

u need a key to fight him

[austere grotto]

I got so close to beating 2nd phase

[quasi lantern]

Simple ?

[supple mountain]

lover

[austere grotto]

Of ||Mantis Lords||

[quasi lantern]

Where should i find it

[neat karma]

@supple mountainDon't.

[quasi lantern]

Ahhh hell nah

Tell me

[supple mountain]

Tip for this game:
When you first fight a boss, attack minamally. Learn the patterns. That attempt, you will most likely die
Attack when the boss feels like it, not you

[quasi lantern]

[neat karma]

that is not what i was talking about

[supple mountain]

don't what? 😉

[neat karma]

its on ||queens garden as they said||

[quasi lantern]

The key

[austere grotto]

Ty, understood

[neat karma]

dont say stuff like that again. thanks

[austere grotto]

But I’m getting better

[neat karma]

and get informed possibly

[supple mountain]

i lowk forgot what i said 😭

[neat karma]

just remember not to hop onto every trending word you see 'round

[supple mountain]

i was joking bro

[austere grotto]

And I’m proud of it

[supple mountain]

that's good

progress!

[austere grotto]

And I got close, I beat 2/3

[supple mountain]

nice

don't let the stress get to you

dying late is ok

[austere grotto]

Of them, I was low health when I got to the last one so it makes sense, plus they wouldn’t attack in the way I can heal

[supple mountain]

i'm saying it can be annoying when you die late, but we've all done it

and if you haven't done it you're a liar

also they have an attack you can heal on

[austere grotto]

I think I need a little break

[supple mountain]

then take one

[austere grotto]

Yeah, they wouldn’t do that attack

[quasi lantern]

Btw

The key should be used in the || city of tears||

Right ?

[supple mountain]

inbetween there and right of it

[quasi lantern]

Focus to no get damaged not heal

[quasi lantern]

????

[supple mountain]

why are you confused by your own message?

[grizzled brook]

What should i use ti kill ||hornet sentinel||

[supple mountain]

do you have dementia? i have dementia too

do you have dementia? i have dementia too

do you have dementia? i have dementia too

[quasi lantern]

No I didn't know if u answered

Did u

[supple mountain]

yes

[grizzled brook]

What should i use?

[quasi lantern]

Where did u get that green charm down there ?

[grizzled brook]

Very bottom?

[quasi lantern]

So i should use it there

[supple mountain]

||Shaman Stone, Quick focus, Soul Catcher||

that seems good

[grizzled brook]

If so its in the ||lake of unn you need tear if ismas||

The thorny one?

If so its in a side room with electric things with parkour

[kind whale]

New to hk but curios on modding. What does it do to actually help you? What type of mods?

[supple mountain]

there are multiple mod types:
Memes
Visual updates (like skins)
Challenges for the skilled (Masochism)
Hacks for making things easier (like teleporting, inf damage)
Randomizers (Fun)

[neat karma]

theres really all kind of mods

[supple mountain]

yeah

[neat karma]

theres new bosses theres new platforming challenges theres visual changes as said that let you change your skin or how the game itself looks, multiplayer and several addons for that,a bit of everything

[supple mountain]

yep

[opaque moat]

guys what are ur techniques in playing ||markoth|| ||all bindings||

[neat karma]

eitherway as you say youre new to hk, i wouldnt recommend modding at all until you beat/finish the game

[supple mountain]

pick a god and pray

[opaque moat]

pick?

eh

[opaque moat]

i really need a way around with this war criminal

where are the cheese videos when we need them

[supple mountain]

i hate to say it

there is no cheese

unfortunately

[kind whale]

Gothu

[vale dagger]

Pray

[opaque moat]

that's the issue

[vale dagger]

Tactical save and quit

[opaque moat]

u literally got nothing to cheese with

[supple mountain]

Alt + F4

[vale dagger]

Equip emotional support build and hope

[supple mountain]

Consult the nearest therapist for more advice

[opaque moat]

tbh ||markoth|| design doesn't seem the best

[wheat bramble]

I have 3 ||dreamers|| now I’m scared of getting to the ||black egg temple||

[supple mountain]

u got this

[opaque moat]

he can be harder than the final bosses and there isn't a strategy like them

[frigid helm]

Where does ||tram|| bring me besides ||resting grounds||?

[supple mountain]

tf u mean "can be"

[supple mountain]

places

[frigid helm]

..

[opaque moat]

they are definitely harder at first, but u can get them to he too easy just by learning the patterns

[supple mountain]

that applies to literally every boss in the game

[opaque moat]

except ||markoth|| :>

he has no patterns

[supple mountain]

yes he does

kills you kills you kills you kills you kills you kills you

pattern

[opaque moat]

and the ||spikes can literally be out of the screen which is totally unfair||

[opaque moat]

true true

[round mirage]

If I beat ||markoth, galien, no eyes, marmu, elder hu, gorb and xero|| are there any ||dream warriors left?||

[supple mountain]

no

[round mirage]

Then how do I get the remaining ||403 essence?||

[supple mountain]

bosses

you have to revisit some

[round mirage]

Oh not them

😭

[supple mountain]

oh yep them

[round mirage]

||you're saying I have to get my ass clapped by failed champion, lost kin and white defender||😭

[supple mountain]

1

only 1

or 2

[round mirage]

Oh

Ok then

[supple mountain]

they give tons of it

[round mirage]

What 2 should I do

[supple mountain]

whichever original bosses you liked the ebst

best

[round mirage]

Hmm

[supple mountain]

they're all similar in difficulty

[round mirage]

||so I'll do soul tyrant and failed champion||

[supple mountain]

||failed champion|| has TONNES of cheese

MOUNTAINS

[round mirage]

How so

[supple mountain]

you can practically kill him after the first stagger

timer abuse

[round mirage]

Really?

Wdym

[supple mountain]

if you stagger him, them smack his butt, ||dreamnail|| him, smack his butt, heal, repeat you can end up with full ||soul|| and hp after every single stagger

[round mirage]

Hmm

[supple mountain]

then you can shred him with ||spells||

and repeat

[round mirage]

I see

[supple mountain]

he has more cheese than italy

[round mirage]

LMAO

[austere grotto]

I beat first phase while only taking one damage at the end of the phase

Of ||Mantis Lords||

[round mirage]

Oh yeah

I just beat ||failed champion||

[austere grotto]

Still need to beat ||Mantis Lords||, but I’ll take it as a small W

[round mirage]

Nice

The ||mantis lords fight is one of my favorites||

[austere grotto]

Mine too, it’s fun, so far ||Hornet 1|| is my favorite

[round mirage]

Do you want any spoilers

[austere grotto]

No, I know a few spoilers, but not a lot, depending on what the spoiler is

[round mirage]

darn

[austere grotto]

Screw it, I’m fine with it

[round mirage]

Ok then

You get to fight her again lol

[austere grotto]

Oh I knew that

[round mirage]

Ok I just had to tell

It's a bit harder

[austere grotto]

But me happy, she’s probably my favorite character, so I’m only playing the og game first to get a hang of it, but HK is the best game ever

Gonna try the ||Mantis Lords|| for the tenth time

🔹 An unnecessary spoiler is a spoiler (even a tagged one!) that was not directly requested by the user being helped, such as help referencing in-game content that the player has not necessarily reached - Charms build containing Charms they haven’t found, for example. These spoilers, though generally good-intentioned, can harm a player’s experience as any other spoiler would. Remember the game is non-linear; Always make sure to know what a player has and where they’ve reached. A simple screenshot of their map and inventory would tell you all you need to know.

[spring mesa]

It was absolutely not required whatsoever

[austere grotto]

First phase of ||Mantis Lords|| without damage, wish me luck on second phase!

@supple mountain?

[supple mountain]

gl

[austere grotto]

I got to final phase but jumper on her

And died

I used ||dd for the spikes||

And for extra damage

[torpid reef]

Is silk song on ps+

[finite sparrow]

As someone who had ps+ premium I haven't seen it so idk

[torpid reef]

Bro

[wintry monolith]

||When he is jumping forward, he is doing a normal mace attack, when he stands still or jumps backwards, he is doing a shockwave attack||

||Being up in his face allows his hitbox to block any rocks that come down.||

||You can dash under the forward jumps to keep being in his face, and you just need to step away when he's doing a shockwave.||

||Hitting rocks from the side towards him is a way to deal damage for free from afar.||

[stable osprey]

thx i beat him

[wintry monolith]

[frigid helm]

Any tips for ||hornet 2||

[round canopy]

omg

iis this good for ||coloseum of fools||

[crystal cedar]

balright

||is a nail or spell build better||

[gentle shuttle]

no. this after the sword rain u fght him in the platforms

[frigid helm]

What’s an easy way to kill ||hornet 2||

[sage smelt]

mix is best, depends on what youre used to/prefer thoo

[crystal cedar]

prob nail then its a lot easier to play

[sage smelt]

ahk then use that

[crystal cedar]

alr ty

[royal hull]

sure

[vital trail]

what am i supposed to do against ||absrad's|| balls in phase 2 😭

[crystal cedar]

when are you meant to fight ||brooding mawleck||

i really feel like he aint possible without ||shade cloak||

[vital trail]

just jump above him when he spit alot of it

[crystal cedar]

tried got hit both times

[vital trail]

try again its very big window

[old radish]

huge window

[vital trail]

when the spit goes in air u jump above it and go to other side

[crystal cedar]

its whatever ill keep trying

need the item after him anyways

he just did the spit back to back on one side so i couldnt dodge it

[round canopy]

jump and ||dash|| over him

[crystal cedar]

alr

[stable osprey]

any idea on how to get any more ||essence?||

[sterile pawn]

You can often avoid the spit by staying really close to ||Mawlek aswell|| it doesn't work all the time but about 50% of the time

[sterile pawn]

What have you done?

[stable osprey]

i have done ||lostkin ||||failed champion and the soul tryant guy || also did the ||dream guy in queens garden ||

[sterile pawn]

there are a lot of those dream guys scattered about that you can go fight. There is one close to ||mantis village as well as one right next to seer||

[frigid helm]

How do I easily avoid ||hornet 2’s spikes?||

[stable osprey]

ok thanks

[stable osprey]

pretty sure you can just break them

[frigid helm]

While hitting her is impossible

Bc I’ve gotten final phase last few hits

While one mask

And die to the spikes

I’ve been stuck for 45 mins

[stable osprey]

what i did was just instabreak when she sets them cus she like waits a bit before attacking

[sterile pawn]

abuse ||spells to take down a bunch of them at a time. often you can even clear them with spells while hitting hornet.||

[frigid helm]

||dd and shade soul?||

[sterile pawn]

Both works it's just situational.

[frigid helm]

I use I frames

To help

[sterile pawn]

Keep in mind that you don't have ||iframes from dd before you stop moving up||

[frigid helm]

Yh

Ik

[frigid helm]

Would ||grimchild|| help?

[sterile pawn]

No, ||grimchild often hits hornet mid stagger taking away your healing opritunities.||

[stable osprey]

how do i ||dreamnail the guy in ancient basin ||

[next terrace]

||u need awoken dream nail||

[stable osprey]

does ||seer give u tat||

[next terrace]

yes

[crystal cedar]

ah alright thanks

[vagrant cradle]

||Anyone have tips for zote and sly||

||p3 is so hard BC of zote and sly, cant even get past zote||

[silent flame]

how hard are the ||watcher nights||

[royal hull]

depends on your kit

[silent flame]

that too early?

im like freaking out, i feel like it was easy to me

its simple but worked

[royal hull]

the yaren't the hardest but they can be overwhelming

[silent flame]

the first time i tried it it was very overwheliming,

[sterile pawn]

Not showing inv smh

[silent flame]

idk why it didnt

im sending a ss

[sterile pawn]

I find this kinda funny

[silent flame]

inv and kit

[sterile pawn]

Task failed succesfully imo

[sterile pawn]

||Strong nail|| but still a hard fight props

[silent flame]

||thanks, i feel the spells carried tho honestly||

[sterile pawn]

any ||triple hits||?

[silent flame]

||a couple of them, i was able to line them up quite often||

[sterile pawn]

I assume no ||quadruple hits|| I don't think those are possible on newer patches anyways

[silent flame]

||i mightve hit one but im not entirely sure, i only have like 15 hours on this save, im a curios person so i always explore anything i can||

[hoary anvil]

huh ... now you've added floating, i wonder how you pulled that part off

[round canopy]

any tips on my setup for ||lost kin||

[hoary anvil]

||defenders crest is good in this fight in particular because it one shots the balloons allowing you to heal in peace||

[uncut iris]

you should really find more ||charm notches and charms||

[uncut iris]

use ||shaman stone over grubsong and longnail|| perhaps

one important thing is that ||shaman stone increases the size of your vengeful spirit||

that means it can ||double hit more consistently||

[hoary anvil]

other than that, seems like you're using just among the classic good stuff, other good ones in your collection include ||shaman stone (if you use spells offensively like twister implies) and quick focus. soul catcher is decent as an alternative to twister if you find yourself only really healing and also not maxing out on soul, but twister is the better one on offense (if you fire ~4+ spells for every heal, or hit max soul frequently where catchers effects are completely lost). i've also heard stalwart shell is pretty good in some cases but i haven't used it||

[uncut iris]

not a big fan of ||stalwart||

better charms exist for the same cost

[hoary anvil]

iirc it was abusing ||stalwart with quick focus||, although i personally prefer a different one they don't have

[round canopy]

is it just me or most times i try to heal i accidentaly shoot a spirit

[uncut iris]

||bind muscle memory? you're meant to hold down focus lol||

[round canopy]

yeah lol

[hoary anvil]

-# also time to bring up that ||quick cast|| exists in controls, and it ||fires spells faster due to not needing to check if you're healing||

[uncut iris]

you're meant to hold down the heal button

[lucid igloo]

||how do you know what grubbies youre missing?||

[uncut iris]

what do you have in your inventory

[lucid igloo]

Okay

Ty

[lucid igloo]

||are there 10 mask shards or 9?||

[polar flicker]

|| there are 9 masks total without any charms or lifeblood ||

[lucid igloo]

Ok

[polar flicker]

|| since u start with 5 masks u can get 4 more
So around 16 mask shards in the game ||

[lucid igloo]

is it normal to ||be afraid of deepnest even after beating the true final boss?…||

i feel ashamed of myself i swear

[polar flicker]

Depends on the person tbh

After my first run through only annoying thing abt it was not knowing the way

[languid ravine]

Easy as hell

5/10 at max

[lucid igloo]

[drowsy sleet]

[dense panther]

BUT

I remember the path

[feral mulch]

[fringe mortar]

Seee what im saying? Just last time I was in the game. Right after getting out of ||godhome|| to do something else. I wanted to go back to save again but yeah I forgot the way

[feral mulch]

not that relatable

[dense panther]

to ||hera||

that took long

[fringe mortar]

I was stuck for a couple of days in the hell honestly so I get it

[dense panther]

what I honestly do is

I remember all the rooms and how they look

Am i supposed to have ||shriek|| for this area? Some of the orange goo shooters are on the roof

[sterile pawn]

No main menu storage, I'm a glitched runner

[dense panther]

||How can I open (or activate) the circled icon so I can fight the Mantises at a harder difficulty level?||

[dense panther]

[dense panther]

||replace the dash button to where the dream nail button||

[daring seal]

[daring seal]

I’ve been doing it like this from the start

[dense panther]

||do you know what pantheon 5 is?||

[daring seal]

[alpine cipher]

Yo

[alpine cipher]

||What am I even supposed to do in soul tyrant's second phase||

[daring seal]

[alpine cipher]

[dense panther]

[alpine cipher]

He ||teleports||

[wind cave]

Is there a ||stag station|| in ||deepnest||?

[cobalt cradle]

[alpine cipher]

Alright then

[regal pivot]

[wind cave]

[dense panther]

I can't explain it's against the rules

[dense panther]

||did you get the dreamer in deepnest?||

[regal pivot]

[wind cave]

[dense panther]

dm me if you want

[cobalt cradle]

Uh left of the map

[daring seal]

while you are jumping you can hit him in the air

[cobalt cradle]

U need ||lantern|| for this one

[dense panther]

yep but do you really think it will seem easy to a New player?

I was trying to simplify the method for him

[wind cave]

Thats alr

[daring seal]

oh alr

[dense panther]

||oh mb I didn't see this you get the stag after beating her||

[wind cave]

Fair enough, ig ill find her

[dense panther]

[wind cave]

Ty

[vital trail]

[low escarp]

||you can get the stag station before fighting her||

[wind cave]

I do

[low escarp]

I play on controller

[vital trail]

can u do 2 hits in one jump on ||radiance||

[wind cave]

Idk im not that far

[low escarp]

Haven't tried. Normally ||just 1 hit each jump||

[low escarp]

||which phase are you on?||

[crude cliff]

Yes

Atleast at the start I always try to do that twice

Just jump and 2 upslashes with ||quickslash|| no range charms needed

I dont get it everytime tho

But I only do this at the very start of the fight

[weary moon]

sorry for answering so late. If you do it correct you can hit 4 slashes per jump

you have to hit it with side slashes and not up slashes with ||quickslash||

[quasi lantern]

I finally did the t3

Should i try to get all the charms

[dense panther]

yep

[quasi lantern]

I didn't kill bosses yet but i will go for it

[kind whale]

is there a good 100% completion guide for hk that i should follow. I have been trying to explore and complete on my own but its been hard. I wanted to see how it feels like to follow a guide or use it as a base to help me. So looking for a good guide in youtube that you would reccommend

[umbral pecan]

I would just search an interactive map

with objects and stuff

[dusky sleet]

U can search up on google or opera or anything site called ||Hollow Knight Checklist||

[kind whale]

thx for help yall

[quasi lantern]

Guys

||When i go to the abyss that ground doesn't break for me|| i mean the thing doesn't show

????

[wind cave]

Is there anything in the spider nest?

[grizzled spear]

I need help

[alpine cipher]

I dont think u should follow a guide, having to explore most of it yourself is where u have fun (atleast that's what I think)

[neat karma]

||do you have it equipped||

[neat karma]

Were always here to help whenrver theyre lost aswell

[daring seal]

how can i beat this guy

[alpine cipher]

Yeah

[grizzled spear]

When I completed the first||collesseum challenge|| and killed ||zote|| at the end I got a extra space for ||charm notch|| but after collecting it and going back to the place where I begun the challenge the second||collesseum trial|| was still locked and I'm again playing the first ||trial|| help

[grizzled spear]

How to play in phone?

[daring seal]

[grizzled spear]

Cool

[neat karma]

You need to talk to them after completing it if thats what you mean

Iirc

[grizzled spear]

Oh talk to them again after completing once

[neat karma]

Yeah, and if you ||complete trial 2, talk to them again to unlock the third||

[grizzled spear]

Okk thank youu

Btw is it important for the story?

Or it's just like a side quest?

[neat karma]

||the colosseum? Not at all, but it does give a good amount of money, and completing all the trials once is required for some game completion percentage||

[grizzled spear]

It gives nice amount of geo though

[neat karma]

||4% total, one for each trial and one for the pale ore||

[proper lantern]

This was my favorite fight so far in the game

[grizzled spear]

Ohhh damn

[grizzled spear]

Lol

[wind cave]

Whats in the spider nest then?

[neat karma]

Yup as i said
In fact ||trial 2 is one of if not the best geo grinding methods in the game||

[grizzled spear]

Ooookkk

[proper lantern]

Beat him in around 20 tries

[neat karma]

Where specifically sorry i was distracted

[jagged tide]

||What charms are y'all using to kill the hollow knight, I AM STRUGGLING||
