[split bison]

i dont want to use crest of reaper tell me how do i switch out if it

[naive pollen]

mementos are just proof of doing an optional thing you can display in your house they are essentially like the void idol, weathered mask, etc in hollow knight

[reef mural]

Why am I not getting anymore quests show up now? I have 2 mask shards to get left and need quests for them in act 3

[split bison]

no like my reaper crest thing yk yk

[sharp urchin]

Now do it damageless no crest

[mystic compass]

WTF that's sick, i wanna skip carmelita she sucks

[obtuse pewter]

you need to do all wishboard wishes to get to act 3 so thatd be like not possible

[languid tusk]

sit on the bench and press R

[final mirage]

I think I’ll pass

[umbral pivot]

yes bench and click bottom left button on tool screen

[buoyant pumice]

yeah i think it’s meant to give you options if one particular heart is kicking the snot out of you

[sturdy prism]

Dudee!!!!!

[rocky mirage]

i dont want the game to tell me where everything is though. if i want that i'll just play a ubisoft game with all the quest markers and whatever

[clever granite]

what a great game

[glacial kelp]

hater

[mystic compass]

so no way to kill sherma?

[tall gulch]

I really hope that they add a way to get to act 3 in dlc which bypasses all of the tedious requirements for it, that's my biggest gripe with the game

[haughty lantern]

Buddy I know some people are putting spoilers but if you just beat it please leave and come back later or u Gon get spoiled

[obtuse pewter]

nop

[tight fossil]

I know, she's messing me up rn

[sharp urchin]

She is S tier bossfight but understandabely hard and annoying

[umbral pivot]

title screen background changes are truly something special

[glacial kelp]

hard and annoying are different things man

[prime shuttle]

Would just knowing the name of a area in a game with God knows how many really be that bad

[mystic compass]

decifering her telegraphs is harder than decifring military scyfers

[rocky mirage]

karmelita is a peak boss fight

better than anything in Hollow Knight

[buoyant pumice]

esp since clover dancers are way easier than the rest of the other heart bosses

[next viper]

What a lovely sight

[sharp urchin]

I never found her annoying...

[tight fossil]

I'm still doing her fight for completion, but I'm struggling

[rocky mirage]

yes because exploring is fun lmao

[oak chasm]

Hey where do the caravan go after blasted steps

[mystic compass]

would be s tier if not for useless enemies before

[pure oar]

i did ||karmelita|| before him and in comparison he felt so agonizingly slow

[umbral pivot]

pure vessel…

[haughty lantern]

You can skip her but personally at least best her once don't master her

[violet nexus]

Karmelita haters need to lock tf in so they can experience one of the coolest bosses ever

[glacial kelp]

reading this text is also similarly like a cypher

[naive pollen]

wow i cant believe they had a useless menu item like quit game

[rocky mirage]

yeah she's way more fun than pv

[obtuse pewter]

Mega super truth nuke

[silent fern]

oh yeah fun boss

[prime shuttle]

Except you aren't exploring something new,you are running around like a headless chicken

[oak chasm]

Is it possible to do the caravan twice to skip judge like you skip moorwing

[pallid obsidian]

Idrk what to do next…

[lusty narwhal]

true but it was fun imo kind of like NKG

[final mirage]

I meant the one over lava. It was hell. I’m already about to get to act 3 but was struggling with it. ||It took more attempts to do that than GMS and First Weaver combined||

[sharp urchin]

Real, but those enemies barely last a minute

[obtuse pewter]

pure vessel is so good i love him

[reef mural]

Why am I not getting anymore quests show up now? I have 2 mask shards to get left and need quests for them in act 3

[silent fern]

also i imagine way harder when you dont have like double upgraded nail, max damage tools, and double jump

[haughty lantern]

It's the annoying mobs before it that take 1 min is annoying

[past granite]

in your opinion

[rocky mirage]

might just be a you issue ngl

[haughty lantern]

Yes in his op

[buoyant pumice]

i do really enjoy how you can just go and explore if you’re having trouble bc when i was stuck on widow, i went and found wanderer crest which was what i needed to finally beat her

[umbral pivot]

i’m delusional my favorite hk fight is white defender lol

[lusty narwhal]

yep and musiv makes even them feel fun

[prime shuttle]

Maybe have it be like the fleas except it only says the area and not the exact coordinates

[mystic compass]

nkg WAS learnable - it was obvious where you can squeeze a hit

[haughty lantern]

Yes those fire enemy I cursed at them so many times

[prime shuttle]

So if you are struggling to find then you can just pay a npc to tell you the area

[tight fossil]

Honestly I prefer a run back over an enemy gauntlet, despite that I still like Carmelita, and will probably enjoy her fight a lot more once I get the hang of it

[violet nexus]

I just spam tools and kill them in 10 sec lol. Dreams don't even consume shell shards so there's literally no reason to not do it

[past granite]

NKG is the easiest popular boss there is, i was actually surprised on how easy he was

[gilded zenith]

how long does it take to complete the hunters journal? only thing i have left

[sharp urchin]

Question: Is true final boss no red tools no damage with compass equipped considered a good flex? Should I do it with no damage or tools at all?

[ashen linden]

Groal is infact great

[pure oar]

the one where you just juggle him for 1 min straight?

[rocky mirage]

if you get that stuck just look it up. this is an issue i have literally never had

[glacial kelp]

this is too! you just havent yet

[storm ether]

when you are finding stuff as a byproduct of exploring carefully when going through an area for the first time it is quite rewarding, when you try to find the last pieces left, it's ass

[final mirage]

They were way too annoying. Died to them so many times as they sniped me while dodging

[umbral pivot]

you could say

[rocky mirage]

so is karmelita

[buoyant pumice]

honestly i think people who say the bosses in this game have difficult telegraphs just aren’t that good at reading attack telegraphs bc a lot of bosses in this game telegraph their shit hard

[lusty narwhal]

true in karmeletia in phase 3 its very hard to get a hit in

[timber sand]

i figured out karmalita pretty easily, it took me far longer to figure out the pattern for NKG

[next viper]

Yeah that would have been nice but im satisfied nonetheless, also theres a fuck ton of movie art for reze arc out if you want higher quality matching pfps

[prime shuttle]

Finding the last pieces is my main issue

[alpine crest]

Does Multibinder make witch crest's bind deal more damage?

[haughty lantern]

I only use needle boosting tools like || brew + fire combo|| since I want master hunter moveset

[rocky mirage]

i love how every time a boss in this game is hard it's suddenly the worst game design ever concieved

[prime shuttle]

After you get every area it becomes a pain to find stuff

[south bison]

FREE MY GOAT RED CORAL GORGE

[wild bobcat]

finished the game rn, lost lace is a HORRIBLE boss ngl

[fresh gale]

yoooo

[mystic compass]

NKG would never make me fight 3 waves of minions before

[past granite]

is there any utility behind these places u play the needolin or just lore?

[glacial kelp]

you can only really hit nkg once or twice for anything that isnt pillars though no?

[umbral pivot]

should i drop all my rosaries on bellhome swag or is that stupid

[reef mural]

Why am I not getting anymore quests show up now? I have 2 mask shards to get left and need quests for them in act 3

[naive pollen]

about the same as hollow knight dont worry about enemies in areas that disappear upon defeating the boss that gets rid of the area all entries are retroactively completed

[violet flare]

wtf is the hunter crest & where i get it. All i got is default wanderer beast

[violet nexus]

Karm and Lost Lace at the top is SO VALID

[storm ether]

hunter is default

[buoyant pumice]

unironically really enjoyed shakra’s fight, just sucks that you can miss it if you don’t find it before you go to act 3

[static turtle]

Nice

[mystic compass]

someone gotta make a mod where each enemy is replaced by sherma - they wouldn't attack you they would just vine and cry

[past granite]

i haven't gotten in touch with cms for a while there will be a movie for the bomb arc? 😭

[violet flare]

But why would you master that

[quaint sentinel]

me rn looking for the last craftmetal i need for silkshot😭

[rocky mirage]

if only the enemies you have to fight were really easy to deal with using the tools you have at your disposal...

oh wait! they are!

[violet nexus]

bc its peak

[haughty lantern]

Hunter is you original crest || you can evolve it by talking to Eva ||

[next viper]

YOU DONT KNOW?

[prime shuttle]

I think I'm missing 2 craft metals

[glacial kelp]

upgrading it forces optimal gameplay to be nohitting everything

[final mirage]

Wait you fight ||Shakra and Garmond?||

[mystic compass]

i am saving tools for carmelita

[coarse leaf]

Helloooooo, i wanted to ask something || i thought i did everything to get into act 3, but the quest is not showing up, maybe i missed something??? ||

[past granite]

NO 😭

[pseudo dome]

I think my biggest hot take is that The unraveled is a really underrated boss

[haughty lantern]

Yes apparently though I am still looking how for shakra

[glacial kelp]

all fleas maps and wishes?

[buoyant pumice]

fleas?

[umbral pivot]

did you do second sentinel stuff? bellhome? it’s the random stuff

[mystic compass]

you have to collect 22 fleas and do all wishboard wishes

[rocky mirage]

i'm not saying use all your tools lmao

basic resource managament man

[quaint sentinel]

i even looked up the interactive map to help find it but bro i still cant figure out which one i havent been at

[sharp urchin]

Thoughts on potential challenge run? No architect crest, or poison cogfly/tacks, no savescumming steel soul?

[next viper]

DUDE

[violet nexus]

chat can we all agree that Khann needs a buff? bro is the most telegraphed boss of all time

[naive pollen]

hunter has its own stuff that gives it benefits the gimmick of hunter is the longer you go without getting hit the more damage you do. wanderers gimmick is fast attacks and crit chance

[final mirage]

I see. There’s a lot I have yet to do it seems

[hasty hollow]

i love beating up my new travelling pet

[coarse leaf]

I did all the 22 fleas and wishes, imma see if i missed any map, thanks btw

[past granite]

oh god this is glorious

[prime shuttle]

This is where having a npc or something to give you a hint would be helpful

[violet flare]

I use wanderer

[storm ether]

Spike ball is so good as it allows you to melt most bosses that are ass

[glacial kelp]

this is called a normal steel soul run to alot of those that have done it

[rocky mirage]

beating the game but you're infested literally the whole game :D

[knotty zenith]

ban polip pouch and wanderer's crest for the challenge run :3

[buoyant pumice]

you have to finish ||shakra’s wish to find her master, then you’ll find a little stick with her ring on it in the moorwing arena. if you’re in act 3 you can’t fight her.||

[prime shuttle]

God knows I ain't finding those craft metals since they seem to be in the most random areas known to man

[next viper]

The animation is absolutely insane

[alpine crest]

How much HP does a grand reed have?

[ornate torrent]

hunter is the best overall and wanderers is good on a lot of bosses; i havent rly used architects or witch and i havent gotten shamans

[naive pollen]

i know but my point is hunter isnt a useless crest not worth usign once you unlock other crests it has its own gimmick other crests do not have

[sharp urchin]

Sir yes sir!

[haughty lantern]

|| grandpa boss fight is a wish in act 3 I think it's in bellhart||

[wild bobcat]

Finished the game rn, lost lace is one of the worst bosses i ever fought in my life ngl.

[knotty zenith]

"||if you're in act 3 you can't fight her||" 😭

[mystic compass]

that's a good idea, but you know what's better - not spend a single tool, complaing about how waves suck, be too inept to beat carmelita even with tools, skip her and tell everyone that boss sucks

[glacial kelp]

what the hell are these i keep on seeing the name pop up

[sharp urchin]

I think I'll pass...

[quaint sentinel]

yea would be nice if yog had an option to help you seek stuff out you might be missing once youve found all fleas

[buoyant pumice]

yeah it really sucks it’s one of the few bits of missable content in act 2

[prime shuttle]

Maybe have it be a tool

[knotty zenith]

nothin like droppin final boss name outta nowhere

[alpine crest]

Y'know those guys with a violin bow on the way to the cogwork dancers?

[violet flare]

Yea im trollin i only got 3 crests for real tho

[glacial kelp]

oh is grandpa like dave

[fresh gale]

BRO WHERE???? 😭

[final mirage]

If only there was a way to know which you did. Sorta like the stuff that the 2 Legend of Zelda switch games had

[rocky mirage]

this is how most of this server acts lmao

[quaint sentinel]

yea thatd go pretty hard

[haughty lantern]

Oh that is why I speedran to act ||3|| so eh

[glacial kelp]

oh the guards forgor

[sharp urchin]

Abyss bottom

[prime shuttle]

The big bell in deep docks

[alpine crest]

ah okay

[mystic compass]

how the devs intended

[fresh gale]

ah bet

[vestal kayak]

any hornet gripper enjoyers

[alpine crest]

because apparently they die in a single witch's crest bind??

Which seems like a lot, since it otherwise takes quite a few hits to get them down

[fiery frigate]

Tbh I really wish that Silksong had a fight against hornet, like with her moveset, having a hornet boss fight would have been so cool, maybe even two boss fights

[obtuse pewter]

second sentinel that low and unraveled that high is crazy

[sharp urchin]

Is Lace a minor? Asking for a friend

[quaint sentinel]

what

[storm ether]

Graol and similar experiences are making me care less and less about Silksong and spoilers like goddamn does it pull the whole game down

[thick steppe]

yes

[native dagger]

I thought ||the craws were annoying|| then I fought ||pintress||

[warm gazelle]

i love ascendant's grip.

[fresh gale]

here?

[glacial kelp]

this is the average crashout text content

[umbral pivot]

pull a quick the hollow knight and start stabbing yourself

[pure oar]

you can check your completed quests

[final mirage]

Where???

[knotty zenith]

bell is bottom right bench

[prime shuttle]

To the right

[past granite]

do yo-u guys have any idea on where i might be missing the last craftmetal

[glacial kelp]

scroll down

[fresh gale]

ahhh

[mystic compass]

to top it off - leave a negative review on steam

[glacial kelp]

blasted steps man idk

[quaint sentinel]

the one you took down the first time the forge boi fixed it

[pure oar]

check your task menu

[buoyant pumice]

nah i fucking hated ||bell eater, only good part of that fight was bell beast pulling up.||

[obtuse pewter]

the bench on the right of that

[violet flare]

talking bout a damn bug

[vestal kayak]

REAL! i love using that tool too but people are calling me crazy for liking ascendants grip

[final mirage]

I just noticed the “show completed” thing. I may be slow

[past granite]

yeah i'm 7/8 apparently i've gotten that one too

[mystic compass]

anyway where's green prince boss fight, i spent a simple key on the fucker i want it back

[obtuse pewter]

slopping the hogs

[sharp urchin]

But how old is the bug?

[glacial kelp]

idk man i got all of them naturally

[buoyant pumice]

it’s in act 3

[alpine crest]

witch's crest bind build is genuinely op

[storm ether]

I'm honestly surprised that git gud is still used in the big 25

[prime shuttle]

I think there's a whole questline before you beat him up

[mystic compass]

i am in act 3

[gloomy pewter]

What do yall think

[knotty zenith]

I don't think any boss so far has felt particularly unfair/bullshit, except maybe savage beastfly, but fuck that guy its not a skill issue I promise

[glacial kelp]

go right of craws

[tight viper]

Craw

[mystic compass]

i already spotted him near broken clockwork dancers

[buoyant pumice]

did you find him next to where you fight the cogwork dancers?

[umbral pivot]

can you still free green prince from his cage in act 3

[prime shuttle]

Minions are stronger that hornet

[mystic compass]

yes

[prime shuttle]

If hornet used those in hk the knight would be dead

[glacial kelp]

bro its a triple crit no

[quaint sentinel]

wanderers supremacy

[buoyant pumice]

what everyone else has said, go to the far right wall of craw lake

[gloomy pewter]

This guy gets it

[mystic compass]

on it

[warm gazelle]

[knotty zenith]

I mean she did use spike traps, but those are nowhere near as strong as cogfly

[prime shuttle]

I saw 4 minions melt one of those enemies

[hazy oxide]

Not a big fan of this “Moss Mother” fellow

[umbral pivot]

we must all unite to slander beast crest cuz like what the fuck is that

[past granite]

the fact that, there are no bad crests, and they're all perfectly balanced suiting for each person's playstyle is REALLY nice

[glacial kelp]

yk they do 8 damage at max no polip

[mellow valley]

Where does ||Nuu go after hunters memento||?

[umbral pivot]

are you a game journalist by chance

[knotty zenith]

journalists on their way to complain about the first boss (they died to it once)

[prime shuttle]

They stay there for a while

[umbral pivot]

we are on the same wavelength it seems

[rocky mirage]

beast crest is really fun the pogo just takes a lot more getting used to

[prime shuttle]

Also there's no way they only do that much

[rough dawn]

I HATE IT WHY DID THEY HAD TO CUT OUT THIS GORGEOUS AREA AND THOSE STEEL SOUL JINN ENEMIES TEAM CHERRY I AM NEVER FORGIVING YOU FOR THIS I AM SO HEARTBROKEN 😭 😭 💔 💔

[quaint sentinel]

that crit noise hits the same as the reload of an m1 garand and the parry from sekiro its just

[knotty zenith]

https://tenor.com/view/clown-clowntoclown-conversation-telepathy-clowns-gif-25167584

[obtuse umbra]

Hating this delivery so much. 💔

[naive pollen]

guys i cant figure out how to do the tutorial in cuphead -2/10

[glacial kelp]

no im not disagreeing but theyre not more dps than wanderer alone

[past granite]

💔

[rocky mirage]

it's ok it'll be dlc surely

[gloomy pewter]

Its satisfying asf

[knotty zenith]

dw they're gonna add it in the plasmium dlc

[prime shuttle]

It's inf range so there's that

[final mirage]

I suck at deliveries. Being on switch does NOT help

[pallid obsidian]

Do I need to explore the secret entrance to bilewater

[prime shuttle]

I think if they lock on smth they will just keep fighting till it's off screen

[north cipher]

Does shaman crest really need 3 silk skills? Feel like it couldve gotten by with just 2 and a yellow or blue slot in that place

[hazy oxide]

I just did it yesterday choral chanbers is the worst part imo

[tight viper]

If you get sick of it, hit each bench on the way and alt f4 if you get hit twice

[pure oar]

cant believe the game reviewer ignored the instructions in the background for like 16 min and just sat there like einsteins definition of insanity

[low warren]

Is there a silk song lfg to play the game with people

[signal pagoda]

whats the best crest for no hitting?

[hexed marsh]

So um, I've been palying Silksong for the past 15 days (everyday since it came out), what everyones favorite playstayles so far? ||(Hunter, Repear, Beast, Wanderer, etc.) ||Been on ||Reaper|| so far.

[tight viper]

Probably shamans or architect

[signal pagoda]

hunter

[north cipher]

The Steel assassins will probably come back for dlc (I hope)

[prime shuttle]

Wanderer

[past granite]

where can i get the craft metal i didn't buy from bone bottom merchant in act 3?

[tight viper]

Depends on the boss as well imo

[signal pagoda]

im not gonna use red tools, nail only

[knotty zenith]

probably hunter or architect, I don't have shaman's though so I can't tell

[quaint sentinel]

fr i feel like 3 truly is way too much i wish i could throw flintslate on it bruh

[past granite]

hunter, or witch

[trail pier]

Flea doddge🙂

[hazy oxide]

I like the hunters a lot. The pogo really grew on me. Combos well with harpoon

[tight viper]

Oh then wanderer would work best most times

[prime shuttle]

Quick nail my beloved

[knotty zenith]

reaper flea juice flintslate my beloved

[gilded zenith]

gotta be the hunter, specially for no hitting for the bonus

[copper fox]

flea jugggle my goat

[pallid wagon]

The genuine rage i feel when attempting ||Conductor’s Melody’s gauntlet||

[trail pier]

Sorry i meant flea dodge

[past granite]

hunter, cuz of the focus bar

[copper fox]

almost my goat

[trail pier]

Flea dodgr fucking sucks its so ass and rng actually fucknit

[lyric minnow]

im a god at dodge. went from 52 hightscore to 118 in one run

[final mirage]

I hated doing that

[signal pagoda]

whats the best build

[knotty zenith]

my friend asking how many waves there are (he was on wave 5)

[quaint sentinel]

we all suffered on that shit on our first go lmao

[gilded zenith]

ive gotten 52 in juggle

[ocean perch]

boobs?

[tight viper]

I’d say wanderer has better parry gameplay, which is important for no-hit

[pale oak]

Currently it’s reaper for me

[shut osprey]

bro this stupid fucking sentinel ruined my money farm

[pallid wagon]

Bro how many waves are there? I beat the boss and started sobbing when more came

[pure oar]

i need to watch speed runs of the gauntlet cause i dont wanna be stuck for another 1-2 hours like my last time

[north cipher]

No I dont think it needs a red slot as the whole point is that its a reverse of architect. But with architect theres so many red tools that 3 slots make sense. While theres only 6 silk skills and you really only need 2 at most

[past granite]

i used this for LL

[hexed marsh]

and how deep into the game? ||by percentage only. me: 87%||

[pure widget]

hey so why do silksong speedrunners play the game in japanese

[knotty zenith]

uhhhhhhhhh (its ||8|| I think)

[trail pier]

Remove flee dodge

[south vigil]

text goes faster

[pure widget]

incredible

[hallow lotus]

it's Chinese, and the answer to amost every question like that is "it's faster"

[opal tinsel]

||You still got a long way to go ||

[obtuse umbra]

There's no way that works.

[knotty zenith]

flea dodge aint that bad, reaper's crest is goated for it cuz it has a longer pogo animation and easier to aim than something like architect

[gaunt saddle]

is ||pale nails|| and good

[rustic eagle]

I just need to know what the design choice was to make 90% of bosses do 2 masks of damage. Big guys, sure. Use it to show how deadly they are. WHY in the name of RADIANCE does a little ||circus performer|| do so much damage???

[tight viper]

Doesn’t work for couriers but it does work for lacquer if it doesn’t fully break, unless it got patched out

[pure oar]

it does decent damage i just would never use it outside of bosses

[knotty zenith]

||TROBBIOOOOOOO||!!!

[final mirage]

||Trobbio is peak tho||

[gilded zenith]

i didnt even think the laquer was that bad to not get hit, just a long walk

[scarlet laurel]

gamers I’m about to face the infamous Groal The Great, wish me luck 🍀

[gaunt saddle]

what about ||rune rage||

[hallow lotus]

Trobbio is a higher being confirmed

[trail pier]

I cant change from wanderers crest after playing the whole game with it

[gaunt saddle]

personally i cheesed him with ||overdosing||

[rustic eagle]

I love his design and he's fun, but god if I didn't want to uninstall the game every time one of his stupid ||tornadoes|| hit and killed me

[naive pollen]

great already one of 3 seth records beaten before even getting seth into felatopia

[pure oar]

good on enemies that dont run and are slow kinda rough if they zoom around

[gaunt saddle]

and that entire damn area

[final mirage]

Yeah. I’m scared to fight his ||second form||

[gaunt saddle]

fuck that attack man it's the only thing that's hard to dodge

[rustic eagle]

his WHAT

[knotty zenith]

go to bench, press q (or your device equivalent) and then d (or your device equivalent)

[final mirage]

||Act 3 fight.||

[mellow lily]

took me like 5 tries no jk

[knotty zenith]

trobbio has a ||sequel||

[gilded zenith]

gameplay answer: prolly cuz we're so much faster in this game and have so many more options. kinda realized the game would probably be super easy if most of these guys hit for 1

[gaunt saddle]

do you have ||archi|| crest yet

[hexed marsh]

i found ||flying above him helps, sometimes||

[mellow lily]

i hadnt done shakra's quest yet either

[naive pollen]

the big reason is healing in silksong is completely different everything doing 1 mask with the silksong heal even if it takes longer to charge would be too easy imho

[pure widget]

trobbio is actually zote thank you for listening

[solid token]

Why can't I access the mechanical notate?

[rustic eagle]

Doesn't matter if we're faster, if I'm not faster 🫠

[gaunt saddle]

except he jumps

[past granite]

how can i get the first craftmetal after the merchant is dead in bone bottom?

[fierce apex]

Did they reduced the amount of shardillard necessary for journal? I'm pretty sure i got it way faster this time

[scarlet laurel]

yeah but how do I overdose on ketamine

[quaint sentinel]

itd honestly be the perfect crest for me if it was at 2 skills and had either a 3rd blue or a single yellow i love shamans combat style but the build type aint for me

[gaunt saddle]

brother use your memory lockets i'm begging you 😭

[copper fox]

because its so much easier to heal than in the original game that if they only did 1 damage, youd practically be invincible
i heard somewhere that team cherry made it like that so you spend more time bouncing between low hp and full hp, to give it a bit more thrill

[pure oar]

check your map there should be some new markers

[gaunt saddle]

do you wanna know or nah

[fresh gale]

okay wtf is this boss bro

[fierce apex]

peak

[rustic eagle]

I think it's a very interesting dynamic, I just wish it weren't every bossfight and all the little minions they have in the rest of the area

[mellow lily]

pogo

[gaunt saddle]

ah shit i gotta stop clicking on these

[fresh gale]

the boss doesnt seem to be that hard

[trail pier]

You cant just spoiler the final boss of act 3 eithout a spoiler

[gaunt saddle]

curiosity killed the cat

[final mirage]

I’m just beat it’s second fight. I do NOT need more of this

[trail pier]

Flea dodge is such bs

[alpine crest]

istg if it wasn't for the spears, the boss would be groal-levels of bad

[quaint sentinel]

teleportation bugaloo

[trail pier]

How am i supposed to get 96

[native dagger]

I feel like ||cross stitch could use a damage buff||, or a silk cost reduction. It just doesnt feel worth it too use compared to ||thread storm||. Am I wrong?

[cobalt widget]

no im only 32

[alpine crest]

Are there any tools that boost the power of charged nail arts?

[pure oar]

lock the fuck in

[fresh gale]

i do like a challenge

[night dagger]

Ah dang

[solid token]

Yes, but I'm stuck.

[tough ivy]

nah cross stitch is really op in second playthroughs

[knotty zenith]

parry funni

[tight viper]

The iframes are incredible tho

[final mirage]

Is there a guide for each act to know what you’re missing?

[tight viper]

Think it has like 31 or something?

[leaden delta]

no, but there's an nmg like

[alpine crest]

The main use of cross stitch is that it's a defensive option; you can negate an attack, counterattack, and then get 31 frames (don't quote me on this) , aka half a second of iframes during which you can attack & reposition

[solid token]

How do I work with mechanical cores, please?

[trail pier]

The other ones were childs play and i feel like im gonna be stuck on this for an hour

[alpine crest]

What's nmg?

[ornate torrent]

i really wish cross stich regenerated a bit of silk when successfully used, even at the cost of some damage

[tight viper]

Anyways you are invincible for a damn long time after the skill finishes

[gilded zenith]

cross stitch was my go to in steel heart, honestly feel like it might be the best

[naive pollen]

act 4 Bilewater
act 5 oops all muckmaggots

[wet yoke]

Geez, of course the boss of Far Fields activates as soon as I'm about to leave

[alpine crest]

Any attack that's hard to dodge? Trivialized
Wanna attack mid-boss attack? Sure!
Wanna feel like you're playing Skongiro: Hornets shaw twice? Go ahead

[native dagger]

I agree that its fun too use

[leaden delta]

||like, i agree it's a bit weaker, but it's still like the 2nd best bc it's just better ddark we added a no startup ddark to the game so im ok with it not getting buffed||

[gaunt saddle]

fym you're stuck

[pure oar]

you eventually get that 1 magical run where the fleas start looking slow and suddenly you're over 100

[naive pollen]

thats the point he activates as soon as you get the dress

[knotty zenith]

quest, learn them songs

[ornate torrent]

its more of a sidegrade to ddark because you cant always use it and it takes a lot more skill to use

[solid token]

I don't know how to get unstuck.

[night dagger]

I think its perfect

[fresh gale]

bro is lost lace possible with only 7 masks 😭

[brave timber]

MAKE A SILKSONG RANDOMIZeR ASAP I NEEED CONTENT I NEED CONTEN I NEDED COMNETNETJBNT

[alpine crest]

Does clashing give silk?

[ornate torrent]

i still really love it but yeah

[glacial kelp]

you get cool iv frames compared to it + it has aura

[solid token]

Which ones, please?

[knotty zenith]

the game has been out for two weeks and we actin like its been 7 years already

[naive pollen]

no it didnt give soul in hollow knight either

[brave timber]

i need skurry vids on randomizers...

[sly scaffold]

GARMOND NOOOO

[trail pier]

77 a new highscore

[glacial kelp]

parry? no

[alpine crest]

damnit, would be really neat if that was the case

[brave timber]

I NEED SKURRY VIDEOS ON RANDOMIZERS

[knotty zenith]

the main quest, learn the three songs (please don't be a journalist)

[mental isle]

im here suffering cuz i dont know what i have left to do for 100% can someone help me and tell me how can i see whats left for 100%?

[alpine crest]

Like imagine clashing 4 attacks and then going right into a cross stitch

[naive pollen]

you have to zaza cant stand to see him like that

[trail pier]

Seth

[brave timber]

If skurry is not in ur top 3 hk cc dont talk to me

[fresh furnace]

ACT 3 SPOILER ||Why was I able to bind Eva with only 15 memory lockets?||

[copper fox]

think of this
every time you get a undodgable attack, youd probably have enough silk for at least ONE ability
in that scenario, silk storm wont save u but with cross stitch if you time your parry you take 0 damage, regardless of if u do any u still didnt get hit

[lusty narwhal]

what other reason is needed anyway

[mental isle]

what

[trail pier]

Fuck seth fucking seth

[glacial kelp]

if you hit the enemy during a parry it should

[candid crown]

Crust King Khann is SO fun etf its actually balanced for the difficulty its at

[sly scaffold]

Garmond :(

[solid token]

I've already done that 🤣

[quaint sentinel]

i pulled this off on lace 2 shi was insane

[final mirage]

He genuinely infuriates me. I can’t tell if he’s that slow or if its ragebait

[pure oar]

did you get all tools? did you get all nail upgrades, all silk skills, ||bind eva||, all mask shards all spool shards?

[glacial kelp]

idk better damage

[worldly umbra]

i just realized i cant get hunters memento because i already completed verdania and didnt complete all the guys 😭

[leaden delta]

its literally just a ddark and i would argue it's a better ddark

[copper fox]

especially in the gauntlets that can make a HUUUGE difference

[alpine crest]

Do you have a clip of that? Sounds wild

[sturdy prism]

this build is SO FUN holy crap!!!!

[ornate torrent]

eva is based on total unlocked slots, not just lockets

[fresh gale]

y'all is lost lace possible with only 7 masks 😭

[night dagger]

You know the story behind him? Treat him with respect

[sage egret]

How do I get to this bench in ||mount fay||?

[fresh furnace]

ah, thanks!

[trail pier]

He ruined my day by making the last percentage so fucking hard

[lusty narwhal]

if only same could be said for the path to reach him

[glacial kelp]

down and around i think

[mental isle]

i got everything except mask and spool i didnt know they counter for 100% tyvm for letting me know but also how do i know where are the rest of the spool and mask shards

[alpine crest]

Apparently the bind can oneshot the Grand Reeds which is pretty goofy

[fresh furnace]

go left and down, there will be a wall you can break

[dusky sundial]

Hacker!

[quaint sentinel]

i was a bit too distracted with not dying so sadly i didnt clip it😭

[sand delta]

I need help with ||last judge||

[light plover]

is ||Moorwing|| missable? im in act 2 and i still have not found it

[sage egret]

Ok Ty

[sturdy prism]

im not sure what grand reeds are but im excited to try!!

[fresh furnace]

o.O xD

[night dagger]

Yeah ok

[alpine crest]

Are you in act 2?
Because this build gets a lot stronger in act 3

[sand delta]

Yes he is

[knotty zenith]

the guy has a straight up slur in french in his bio

[candid crown]

Its actually fun with the beast crest

[glacial kelp]

yes

[rustic eagle]

I'm going to obliterate this ||circus twink||

[pure oar]

uhh look up the locations online and just check every one

[lusty narwhal]

to me aura is more than enough reason

[final mirage]

So the former

[sturdy prism]

yes im just about to turn in the 4 items, idk how this build can get stronger, i stumbled upon this myself

[glacial kelp]

you can find him somewhere else though iirc

[sand delta]

I wanna get to act 2 but Im stuck and god damn FUCKING ||LAST JUDGE||

[light plover]

well where is he in act 1

[lusty narwhal]

maybe but i cant say as i was using hunter

[dusky sundial]

The earlier you can get sylph the better, TBH

[alpine crest]

Grand Reeds are those guys with violin bows that can use silk that you fight on the way to the cogwork dancers. Apparently they have like 130 HP, which means that a single bind (that also heals you btw) deals the damage of like 6 max-upgraded nail strikes because of course it should??

[glacial kelp]

graymoor flea

[wet yoke]

This might be rough

[final mirage]

You can skip it by going thru a different route

[fresh furnace]

real

[knotty zenith]

latter, former is the one said first, he's def not slow and 100% ragebaiting

[sturdy prism]

usually in greymoor, if you move the flea caravan before you fight him he wont be in his area until you move the flea caravan a second time

[sand delta]

Tell me how please

[solid token]

I'm stuck, I don't have the lever, please help.

[fresh furnace]

beating steel soul on 100% rn

[tight viper]

||No little Garmond, don’t go into the void cave!

Oh mein gott zees is ein cave full of böser abgrund!||

[fresh furnace]

92% done

[hallow egret]

just finished act 2

[glacial kelp]

wdym youre stuck

[sturdy prism]

i mean kind of makes sense, this crest is hard to get AND has no yellow slots

[night dagger]

Did you go to the places marked on your map?

[naive pollen]

all 4 nail upgrades, all 20 mask shards, all 18 spool extensions, all 3 silk hearts, all 7 crests, all 6 silk skills, all 6 silk abilities, all 51 tools, all tool damage/capacity upgrades, all eva upgrades (15/20 memory lockets obtained), and the ||everbloom|| obtained (act 3 main quest item)
thats the full breakdown of what the completion tracker tracks

[alpine crest]

Once you reach act 3, here's how to get the upgrade to your build:
||Take the quest "Pain, Anguish and Misery", and then defeat the boss it asks you to defeat||

[frail merlin]

Sometimes he will still show up instead of the flea caravan in this case but I'm not sure if that's a bug. Happened to me on a low percent run

[final mirage]

I mean if it gets clicks

[alpine crest]

Does anyone know how much damage the claw mirror & its upgrade deals?

[solid token]

I don't have the lever even though I defeated the boss and recovered a melody.

[fresh furnace]

tool upgrades are not needed for 100%

[final mirage]

Uhh I didn’t take it. You’d have to ask others

[sturdy prism]

using my insane powers of inference i think this quest may be reffering to emo trobbio

[alpine crest]

Tbf you only really need like 1 yellow slot, and the Venticrests provide that aplenty

[undone spruce]

this thing made me think there is something wrong with my ears it keeps making wierd noises when i open inventory

[sly scaffold]

I feel bad for laughing 💀

[alpine crest]

Your insane powers of inference are correct!

[naive pollen]

i meant crafting kits + damage upgrades not clear i did not mean like twin mirrors

[knotty zenith]

the same guy with a slur in his bio asking for money 🗿

[final mirage]

Have fun

[solid token]

I did the first one on the right, but I can't reach the top to get the other melody.

[quaint sentinel]

https://tenor.com/view/hamster-tussiniiduk32-gif-27701794

[dawn ginkgo]

Yall is there a working cheese strat for ||lost lace|| im gonna kms

[frail merlin]

You should nurture it

[hallow egret]

welcome to annoyance the questline

[split cape]

KILL IT

[sly scaffold]

I hated this thing being in my inventory

[alpine crest]

Defeat Tormented Trobbio (really fun fight dw) and voila, suddenly you'll be dealing god-forsaken amounts of damage with each bind in no time

[fresh gale]

is || lost lace || possible with only 7 masks?

[tight viper]

Congratulations, it’s a nightmare!

[trail pier]

81

[knotty zenith]

very possible, wanderer's crest is just that good

[split cape]

You are not the father!

[quaint sentinel]

painfully possible

[tight viper]

It’s possible hitless but you might wanna get more

[prime shuttle]

So like what does the second sentinel do?

[final mirage]

Dude I didn’t know there was an ending with it and now I gotta redo the entire game for it

[undone spruce]

how

[maiden zinc]

why does every boss gotta deal 2x damage

[prime shuttle]

I just randomly found him fighting some enemies and he left again

[split cape]

get cured!

[alpine crest]

You can stop the noise by bringing it to that weird guy in Shellwood who gave you the Pollip Pouch earlier

[tight viper]

Have fun!

[final mirage]

||Kills enemies and then there’s a boss fight||

[fresh gale]

fair lmao

[frail merlin]

Silly question of course it is. It's doable hitless too

[maiden zinc]

its so annoying, even the easy bosses

[prime shuttle]

How do I fight him?

[mellow lily]

not the entire game, just till act 2 ending

[kindred willow]

Holy cow why is it that I can’t play a single part of Silksong without wanting to praise it to death

[naive pollen]

if only there was a weird root like being npc that would enjoy a weird root like child

[alpine crest]

This will also lead you to eventually unlocking a really strong and fun crest :D

[frosty rune]

is super cool and hot and I want more Second Sentinel content

[mellow lily]

bilewater?

[knotty zenith]

cuz its peak 🔥

[undone spruce]

i dont read the lore i dont know anything

[prime shuttle]

Fair enough

[final mirage]

I say entire game as I’m not yet in act 3

[storm ether]

I'd like to have an experience like that too...

[ornate torrent]

guys i cannot for the life of me get the skull tyrant to show up to bone bottom, is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

[mellow lily]

you just need to get cursed then fight the boss

[night dagger]

I think you have to go left from this room till you reach a bench. Then just go up

[frosty rune]

Team Cherry felt michevious making this game, a lot more trolling in SS compared to HK

[tight viper]

Unlocks after a few random encounters throughout the choral chambers

[alpine crest]

Alr so:

Bring the lil screaming wood guy to the guy in Shellwood who gave you the pollip pouch (the thing that makes your tools poison)
Do his quest, and you'll unlock a new Crest.

[final mirage]

Uhh there’s a wish at the first bell place

[prime shuttle]

Bruh

[mellow lily]

i loved the trolling but absolutely despised groal

[knotty zenith]

did you do all the quests and progress enough into the story?

[undone spruce]

ok ty

[solid token]

Okay, thank you.

[kindred willow]

The ||Fourth Chorus|| was so much fun. great way to design an early game boss. They’re actually quite simple with only a few attacks, but they seem intimidating at first because of their size and animations. And they feel fun to beat and require a lot of endurance

[tight viper]

Doesn’t take as long as it sounds

[hallow egret]

i just finished it u need 160 rosaries if u dont have any

[final mirage]

Fair. I’m gonna struggle hardcore tho

[kindred willow]

Also, is it bad that I laugh whenever i hear Hornet’s death screams?

[tiny hare]

can I still fight ||karmelita|| if I choose the ||green prince|| for my ||third heart||?

[coarse leaf]

I died to this

[dawn ginkgo]

Is there a working cheese strat for ||lost|| lace yall im going insane

[ornate torrent]

i've done all the bone bottom wishboard quests and beaten gms so id assume so, also for some reason theres just nobosy in my bone bottom

[alpine crest]

@undone spruce Apparently you also need 160 rosaries for the quest

[chilly nexus]

can anyone hint to me how to get to ||coral forest||

[final mirage]

I loved that boss. I can’t wait for a rematch in the godhome equivalent they add

[mellow lily]

no, it just means you're a weirdo

[naive pollen]

you just drop a rock on his head which is cool though

[alpine crest]

on everyones souls we all died to this guy

[hallow egret]

yep

[knotty zenith]

well I have no clue then, maybe just wait there for a minute and maybe he'll show up

[tight viper]

How far into the game are you

[polar falcon]

say, why is the fight with the krusty crab far easier than its arenas

[mellow lily]

i love this enemy

[chilly nexus]

at ||lost lace||

[ornate torrent]

i swear i've waited long enough but i guess it cant hurt to try

[kindred willow]

I feel like the Ascended arena would make the fight much harder for some reason

[carmine bough]

Are all maps available in act 2 of silk song? Or are some in act 3? (No spoilers)

[final mirage]

Of course

[frail merlin]

Coral Forest didn't make the cut. They added something adjacent to it

[earnest cliff]

cause it can

[storm ether]

idk man, doing the high jump and getting in one upwards swing while it stood there and did nothing was kinda boring, the surprise of having to fight a mech was good tho

[mellow lily]

remind me of intro megaman x bosses

[frosty rune]

there are act 3 exclusive areas. But maps should be available for all the areas you can access

[ornate torrent]

im not excited for ascended savage beastfly 2

[polar falcon]

but the fight is stupidly easy

[carmine bough]

Alright cool

[mellow lily]

ikr, its downright laughable

[tight viper]

Oh, you already saw all of it, a lot of it was cut

[alpine crest]

wait

[polar falcon]

like it is a fun fight but it needs something more

[silver knoll]

Damn second sentinel went down like a bitch

[shut marlin]

I just finished || shellwood || and beat || widow ||, should I go thru || blasted steps or sinners road ||? They’re both extremely punishing but it feels like || sinners road || is where I’m meant to go

[alpine crest]

is Pantheon of Pharloom really worth it?
On one hand, we'll get Ascended Phantom, Karmelita, First Sinner, etc
But on the other hand, we'll also get...

Ascended Savage Beastfly

[tight viper]

It’ll be fine

[frosty rune]

at least CKK is cool af, rad soundtrack and the vibes were great. He also makes cool poses. Shame the fight was too easy but it was fun regardless

[final mirage]

Blasted steps

[naive pollen]

im actually curious how many people beat fourth chorus though pure endurance and how many people actually dropped the rock on his head to instantly defeat him.

[shut marlin]

😭

[ornate torrent]

i'd say its still worth it, how bad can one fight be (famous last words )

[knotty zenith]

glorified radiant difficulty

[alpine crest]

You can drop a rock on his head to instantly kill him?????

[hallow egret]

oh hell nah go to ||blasted steps || its way easier

[frail merlin]

Savage beastfly will be easy for anyone that gets to this point

[shut marlin]

I didn’t notice the rock until after the fight

[silver knoll]

Rock was probably a patch

[sly timber]

im confused i thought there was 3 acts is there only 2?

[fleet pulsar]

POOR BABY AHHH

[final mirage]

YOU CAN INSTANTLY KILL HIM???

[frosty rune]

Ascended Beastfly is the 2nd Beastfly fight but with the spawned enemies being ||void|| buffed

[alpine crest]

Are you telling me that I didn't have to whack away at his head with nothing but my base nail for multiple minutes?

[shut marlin]

No it’s been in since day 1

[ornate torrent]

i thought rock was supposed to do a bunch of dmg but not kill

[polar falcon]

honestly I was happy to have a fight where I can just hit it till it dies. just give it 10 whammies before its next attack

[silver knoll]

There are 3

[naive pollen]

it was there day 1 i beat him that way

[storm ether]

Bro, you don't wanna see what Sinner's road leads to, especially pre act 2

[chilly nexus]

wait what literally where were the clovers where is this ||green prince|| ppl refer to

[tight viper]

I noticed the rock right at the end and only hit one side of it, was wondering what was up there for the rest of the game until my second run

[hallow egret]

fact i did and my petty ass went till i beat it

[severe stirrup]

you can kill him without the rock? I assumed it'd just go on forever lol

[ornate torrent]

i think given the questline blasted steps is the "intended" route

[sly timber]

I just beat Gramma silk and its saying I beat the game so idk how to get act 3

[silver knoll]

Forth chorus isn't even that hard, can't believe there's a way to cheese him

[frosty rune]

yeah same

[mellow lily]

shaman+silk thread+volt filament: exists

[tight viper]

That’s a different area, how many times have you encountered the ||green prince|| so far?

[alpine crest]

Yall, are there any tools which boost the charged nail attacks each crest has?

[chilly nexus]

i think kt's intended

[frail merlin]

Go do some stuff you missed

[severe stirrup]

flintslate Ig

[night dagger]

Sinners road is optional, but you can do it. Though it will be a pain. Blasted steps is the next step on progressing…

[shut marlin]

I thought fourth chorus was really fun, not sure why ppl even want to cheese it

[alpine crest]

darn, so no blue tool or anything?

[sly timber]

ohhh okay ty

[chilly nexus]

||freed him and saw him once at the dead dance machines||

[leaden delta]

i thought you were intended to do that???? like ik now it can just die but i felt like it pointed to you dropping the rock

[mellow lily]

its not cheesing if its an intended feature

[polar falcon]

I also love the mommy song we get in act 3

[silver knoll]

You need to get the flea caravan to its final destination, do all the signboard quests including shakra's, then talk to the caretaker in songclave after defeating lace

[sly scaffold]

Is there anything for destroying all of the ||Void Masses||?

[storm ether]

I am pre grandma silk and I am going to Kurt Cobain myself soon because of a specific flying fat bitch

[naive pollen]

@alpine crest @final mirage after you stun him 3 times 2 updrafts form on the left and right side of the arena if you ride them theres 2 exploding things you can hit if you hit them botha rock drops on fourth chorus's head and he instantly dies

[ornate torrent]

i think fourth chorus is a really good fight, its not very difficult but it makes you feel cool when you do it

[sturdy prism]

yoo just did soul snare

[severe stirrup]

there's the Pin Badge for faster charge. but not more dmg :/

[alpine crest]

wtf?

[final mirage]

I know it’s not meant for me, but I’ve met him twice. Once to free him and the second with the mechanical version of him. ||I have no clue how to fight him||

[tight viper]

Pay a visit to ||Craw Lake||

[chilly nexus]

lol realized i typed coral and not clover

[frail merlin]

Also ||he is entirely skippable||

[sly timber]

tysm

[wind compass]

easily one of the best bosses in act 1

[alpine crest]

Hey, faster charge is all I need.

Flintslate + Pin Badge (how do I get pin badge btw?) on Shaman crest seems nasty

[night dagger]

Its true

[tight viper]

Have you met him in the citadel at all

[ornate torrent]

this is unintended but a really cool strat

[chilly nexus]

i loved splinter sister ngl, I love having to micromanage an arena

[alpine crest]

Skong speedrunning in general is sick

[final mirage]

Ahhh so THATS what those were for. I thought he was gonna break the entire floor

[severe stirrup]

do the pinstress's quest in act 3

[tight viper]

Was thinking you meant ||coral tower|| and the cut things from the trailer at first lol

[alpine crest]

Ight!

[shut marlin]

Kinda boring imo

[frail merlin]

Definitely not unintended just not obvious

[mellow lily]

get pinstress quest on bellhart after visiting her home

[fresh gale]

FUCK THIS GAUNTLET

[livid oracle]

https://x.com/pingi_pro_max/status/1968558780280377746

Bro

Pingi🐧 (@pingi_pro_max)

Hello Team Cherry
I would like to apply for the position of designing boss fights for the pantheon in silksong

X · Sep 18, 2025, 6:12 AM

[final mirage]

Yeah. With his mechanical version where he tells us it’s based on him and his partner

[wind compass]

Sister Spinter was also good, but my favourite act 1 boss is Lace and Last Judge

[alpine crest]

Shaman crest charge attack build seems like it could be really strong, since it's basically a projectile

[knotty sedge]

welp i js searched up stuff abt a3 js to be safe and i now have to complete the WHOLE LOURNAL because i need my first save to be completely complete so now im never gonna play a3, and this really should be changed imo or at least have some way to return, otherwise theres def gonna be mods that auto fill jour al and add back ||pill/tipp quests|| in a3 so uh, yeah

[silver knoll]

No problem. Shakra's quest only appears after you get all her maps btw so I hope you did some exploring.

[chilly nexus]

I'll do this! I heard something about you never being able to visit an area again once you die in it, is that the case?

[leaden delta]

i can make this

[quaint sentinel]

peak

[storm ether]

buy the yellow charm that in songclave that allows you to stick to walls

[tight viper]

Visit ||Craw Lake||

[severe stirrup]

lowkey looks fun

[mellow lily]

would need to do some math to see if it's worth it

[leaden delta]

like obviously that arena is a joke but. double beastfly is actually fun

[mellow lily]

im pretty sure shaman silk thread build is better

[tight viper]

Not exactly

[trail pier]

I dont like flee dodge

[livid oracle]

Pantheon of the Beastflys when?

[alpine crest]

Doesn't need to be mathematically strong; as long as its viable (aka not that much worse than standard builds) and fun, I'd gladly use it

[leaden delta]

its the closest the game gets to a dynamic boss

[final mirage]

Absolutely not. If that’s what they do, I’m not touching the pantheons

[quaint sentinel]

beastflys arnt even bad its the fucking armies they summon

[frail merlin]

Beastfly is made much easier with harpoon

[severe stirrup]

I mean the Nyleth arena is basically that lol

[final mirage]

Yes

[mellow lily]

never had problems with beastfly

[ornate torrent]

i mean i see it as the equivalent of fireball skip in hk (although much easier)

[chilly nexus]

sisters of battle but it's sisters of beastfly

[ornate torrent]

kindly defenestrate yourself

[hallow egret]

is this beast build good?

[leaden delta]

https://youtu.be/-FCms37avHY

[ivory lantern]

why cant i fight Garmond and Zaza?

theyre just standing at Songhome doing nothing

[wind compass]

if anyone actually struggles with the beastfly's attacks itself after like 10 minutes that might be a skill issue ngl

[quaint sentinel]

LL Phantom duo >

[knotty sedge]

i think a3 mechanicw are stupid js bc of this, js saying

[frail merlin]

Nah more like false knight

[night dagger]

Three charging at you at the same time…💀

[leaden delta]

cuz double beastfly is actually fun

[tight viper]

The fight is in a different part of songclave

[wind compass]

2x the spawn😭

[quaint sentinel]

pure silk issue fr

[blazing heath]

Anything but this

[chilly nexus]

ascended clockwork dancers adds a savage beastfly as a third enemy

[leaden delta]

AND IT'S AWESOME it's fun

[hallow egret]

lol

[pearl saddle]

What event triggers act 2? Because I got the the stag on the citadel through phantom and I am still on Act 1 (i won't explore the citadel, i want to for for the last judge route first)

[wind compass]

https://tenor.com/view/hollowknight-hornet-loser-lsign-gitgut-gif-17374298658151818283

[ornate torrent]

i mean not really as you need to airstall with bind to be able to do it

[ivory lantern]

theyre just sleeping at the edge of songclave tho talking about how it needs a protector

[kindred willow]

Oh I’ll absolutely concede it’s a boring boss in theory, however the small things like ||him destroying platforms|| and not knowing initially where to strike him make you feel like you’re “figuring out” the boss, which I find fun

[final mirage]

Is there a checklist for each act to make sure I miss nothing?

[elder canyon]

Ok I have checked every single spool fragment spot but Im still missing one. What the hell.

[ivory lantern]

i dont think id find them somewhere else

[naive pollen]

he has 500 health which is double what lace has in deep docks so you can kill him with enough endurance but the rock is way faster

[ornate torrent]

have you actually stepped out of the bellway and into the citadel

[frail merlin]

They would have blocked the arena off if they didn't intend for players to try this

[drowsy skiff]

People that hate on silksong for no reason reminds me of that one image saying "people when a game doesn't have guns or a ball in it"

[fiery burrow]

50 bucks says its the one above bonebottom

[smoky marlin]

how to get upthere

[final mirage]

A shop maybe?

[chilly nexus]

wait so how does it work should i be wary 👀

[ivory lantern]

did you buy the one in singclave?

[tight viper]

You missed something in whispering vaults, it seems. Check the top right corners in some of the big rooms

[elder canyon]

already checked and its not there

[quaint sentinel]

iconic asf i need this to be the hornet challenge voiceline instead of garama

[pearl saddle]

Great, then I will wait till last judge

[wind compass]

it should've been at least a variant

[quaint sentinel]

real

[gray quail]

Just finished the game.. and O M G the ending waaaaa

[elder canyon]

yes I dont have anywhere to spend my money anymore

[smoky marlin]

btw i got architect crest before act 3

[ornate torrent]

by the way transitioning into act 2 doesnt really do anything the way act 3 does, so theres not much harm in doing it

[ivory lantern]

i know the location youre talking about but how do i find them there if theyre just sitting here

[naive pollen]

question the one abvove bone bottom when you checked the area did you assume you found it because the room was empty nd didnt open the hidden room behind a breakable wall that the spool fragment is actually in

[mint swan]

the way they butchered karmelita with that gauntlet

[ivory lantern]

yeah ur supposed to?

[pearl saddle]

Good to know, thanks!

[smoky marlin]

oh

[final mirage]

What do I need to do before I go to act 3

[tight viper]

You can revisit it if you die, but eventually you won’t be able to revisit it. You can’t miss anything important, tho. Have fun exploring one of the best areas in the game

[snow iris]

I think I found some secret puzzles, but I need help solving. I found a lore stone that says the following

"Anguished Aura
Eight masks hard, swirled soul engaged
Twelve aknids flat, all juices strained.
Six Pilgrims living, hung long to drain"

I remember finding a room with the pilgrims hanging and playing a song makes their silhouette show up. In fact, there are a bunch of places where playing a song makes silhouette appear.

So far what I think is that these things have to be completed.
Eight masks hard - have 8 masks in steel soul mode
Swirled soul engaged - ???
Twelve alnids flat - use the needle phial on 12 aknids. Idk if that even works.

Then head to the place where they are hanging and play the song.

[quaint sentinel]

do not use clanker crest its the worst one ingame ong

[wind compass]

wait quick question: can I get all the endings in Silksong in 1 save file at any time or is it like Hollow Knight where if I get a certain item it locks me out of an ending?

[chilly nexus]

omg tbat makes me sad

[hallow egret]

is the beast build good|| polip pouch cog flies scuttle brace dice and flint slate||

[elder canyon]

That wall just doesnt break probably cuz Im in act 3. But from my memory I recalled breaking that wall.

[upbeat ruin]

lost sinner may actually be impossible, i can barely make it to p2

[chilly nexus]

how do i make sure i don't miss anything

[ornate torrent]

curing urself of the curse locks u out of an ending

[lyric minnow]

anybody know what these three are

[trail pier]

Im gonna do something to my swithch bro i just go 94 on this fucking flee dodge

[smoky marlin]

I just use reaper or witch

[wind compass]

k thx

[frail merlin]

Nah people should play how they want and what fits their playstyle don't listen to this advice

[ornate torrent]

also progressing to act 3 locks urself out of the act 2 endings

[quaint sentinel]

[ivory lantern]

0/10 ragebait

[wraith rapids]

the bilewater boss was easy ngl

[final mirage]

I see

[wind compass]

wait what
I'm in act 2 rn, I can end the game right here right now??

[tight viper]

The only thing you can miss out on is ||some lore||, nothing that counts towards completion or stuff like that

[quaint palm]

We cant fight bosses again?

[smoky marlin]

He made me rage until i found a way to cheese him he was easy

[ivory lantern]

how do i fight these guys

[ornate torrent]

the endings are like the hk endings, u see a cutscene, and then go back to ur save

[delicate monolith]

anyone got any tips for the ||high halls ||arena thingy?

[wraith rapids]

love the bombs

[naive pollen]

no? i got thgat frgamnent in act 3 theres a normal breakable wall it isnt auto opened in act 3

[dark tree]

This looks very silly, what mod did you use to add more?

[ivory lantern]

git gud
isnt that hard tbh

[wraith rapids]

true

[ornate torrent]

use fractured mask and injector band

[hallow egret]

the one for the song?

[delicate monolith]

yea

[wind compass]

well I thought so, but it's still a lil jarring that I can get an ending without even exploring like half of Pharloom

[gilded zenith]

you can get shakra or garmond to help

[severe stirrup]

I love injector band

[delicate monolith]

alr thanks!

[quaint sentinel]

bro has never heard of a joke

[lyric minnow]

i was suprised at how easy the demented trobio fight was especially after how the first one treated me

[leaden delta]

there’s a mod on nexus that’s just called smth along the lines of “double beastfly”

[wraith rapids]

if you cant beat the highhalls thing you are cooked

[dark tree]

Ooo icic

[mellow lily]

volt vessel has high damage and area of effect, helped me a lot to get through the waves of enemies and the big ass mini bosses

[delicate monolith]

yea probably

[elder canyon]

ok bro wtf I literally went to that exact place a few minutes ago and checked all the walls and there was NOTHING WHY DID THAT WALL JUST SPAWN AND WHY DO I REMEMBER BREAKING IT

[slender ledge]

is the ||queen egg|| delivery timed, or only the ||couriers rashen|| is timed?

[tight viper]

Thought they just popped up in that big open area right of songclave during act 2, might have to do all songclave quests or something if you haven’t

[hallow egret]

id use || polip pouch wandererand flint slate if u got ||

[final mirage]

Only couriers

[polar falcon]

peak hollow knight moment right here ||although I love beast mommy just as much, but my elevators :(||

[ornate torrent]

red memory is so fricking good

[ivory lantern]

i already completed silk and soul if thats related
tho i havent gone back to GMS since

[final mirage]

What is this?

[pastel folio]

does anyone have the wanderers crest copy pasta

[mellow lily]

i miss old stag

[dark tree]

I did another silly

[polar falcon]

it is hollow knight, modded

[quaint sentinel]

i was devastated when it didnt go up

[mellow lily]

wish we saw baby stags on the exterior instead of skrill

[dark tree]

https://youtu.be/z82SgTu1KrE @leaden delta

[normal token]

Same

[quiet latch]

Hollow Kngiht: Silksong

[polar falcon]

girl, absolutely same

[leaden delta]

Oh damn

[naive pollen]

this is why we suspected that spot its easy to asume when checking that you must of found it in that room and didnt know there was a breakable wall here and it was beyond that

[final mirage]

Ah

[polar falcon]

not even a tas?

[dark tree]

Nah it could be a lot faster

[mellow lily]

HELL YEAH, WANDERER DOES IT AGAIN

[leaden delta]

but I’m late for work I get this reference…..

[pine crow]

Guys on an unrelated note can everyone agree on that Fortnite sucks ass

[raven lagoon]

does anyone know why trails end isnt starting even though i have all shakras maps?

[hallow egret]

yes

[trail pier]

Fuck

[tight viper]

Don’t think the quest alone stops it but I know following up on it does

[normal token]

I swear this becomes a lot of people's last spool fragment lol

[mellow lily]

tas would do it thrice as fast

[leaden delta]

wanderer is so funny they just added QS again

[dark tree]

TAS usage of sawtooth would be very fun to see

[trail pier]

It was

[quaint sentinel]

wanderer is so nostalgic

[normal token]

Beast bind + flea brew is also v much QS

[frail merlin]

GMS can be ended very quickly with good rng in phase 2

[pine crow]

Cus some guys in my class deadass think hollow knight is ass and Fortnite is good (they havent even played it 🥀💔)

[fiery burrow]

Bonebottom spool fragment claims another victim

[elder canyon]

but the thing is I remember that breakable wall
I knew it was a thing

[hallow egret]

yep my fav charm is pretty much in ss and crits lol

[fiery burrow]

Where's my 50 bucks

[remote onyx]

here again to complain about this game being tedious

[leaden delta]

ohhh sawtooth

[elder canyon]

so when I went there now I just assumed it crumbled because of act 3

[noble jolt]

Does anybody here know how to rip sprites

[tender flame]

Im scared of spoilers but i really felt the need to share this with the community

[leaden delta]

is it just easy to pull out?

[normal token]

Honestly I'm glad I'm seeing varying builds compared to HK's mark of pride + unbreakable strength + shaman stone always

[tight viper]

Print em out and tear the paper in half so that the sprite is ripped, hope this helps!

[fiery burrow]

🗣️ 🔥 💯

[mellow lily]

3d shooter battle royale skills dont transfer to 2d difficult metroidvania game, who'd guess

[final mirage]

I’m so done. I was so close to finishing Couriers but then bonked into the door to the area that you gotta return it to

[dark tree]

Since it procs on float and double jump, I imagine TAS usage of it would be insane

[leaden delta]

Or do you do that for the stabilization while doing a lil bit of dmg

[mellow lily]

they probably just suck ass at the game

[ornate torrent]

mark of pride was not optimal in hk, the real stock build was qs ustrength shaman

[leaden delta]

oh wait it procs on double jump??? I was unaware of this technology

[polar falcon]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-shakra-clanging-chakrams-hollow-knight-hunter-lady-gif-7295276669949152077

[tight viper]

That one singular fan was what got me most times

[pine crow]

No its the fact that they havent even tried it that pisses me off

[leaden delta]

good face dancing btw

[naive pollen]

fortnite is the new Call of Duty for "gamers" who dont actually play games

[outer cargo]

MUSHANKA

[hallow egret]

yep everyone who wont play it say it is bad cuz they cant git gud

[final mirage]

Yeah that too. But I was right there and ran into the door

[trail pier]

Nah im actually gonna brrak something i just got 94 and now 93 on this fuckinh flea dodge thing its so stupidly fucking ridicuoulsou

[ivory lantern]

so then wtf do i do to get them down here

[mellow lily]

fury of the fallen has joined the chat

[frail merlin]

Mark of pride did not add dps so it only functioned as a crutch to keep you out of harms way

[elder canyon]

I have a full healing build
sometimes it makes me feel invincible

[fiery burrow]

This is agreeable

[dark tree]

Are talking about the same tool?

[mellow lily]

yup

[ivory lantern]

use witch crest for it

[ornate torrent]

more of a speedrun thing im ngl but yeah u can throw that one for the last 2 notches

[placid zealot]

bro i cant find ||strengthen songclave wish||

[outer cargo]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-silk-song-hk-poshanka-pushanka-gif-1126523680611628740

[naive pollen]

barbed bracelet or no balls

[remote onyx]

is there anything after ||lost lace||

[elder canyon]

why

[storm ether]

or... hear me out... some people just don't like some games

but yeah, there are people who won't touch games that are not 3d shooters with realistic graphics for some reason

[fiery burrow]

no

[thick steppe]

hornet is hot

[leaden delta]

no we are I guess I just never experimented with it bc I got sawtooth before wings

[ivory lantern]

has an AOE on using bind

[hallow egret]

how many masks should i get for ||lace 2|| i have 7 rn

[elder canyon]

maybe next run

[dark tree]

Ohh, yeah that makes sense

[outer cargo]

[final mirage]

Do you get your own bell home after the 400 rosary wish?

[fiery burrow]

7 will do

[elder canyon]

yeah but I simply prefer hunters moveset

[normal token]

I've been running this on my coral tower attempts and it's fun af to use
Makes me feel like Raiden in reaper mode

[pine crow]

Ig maybe it was a year or 2 since they said it but still

[ornate torrent]

doesnt witch crest precent normal healing tho

[hallow egret]

alr time to evicerate lace bye

[remote onyx]

there is no way to make coral tower fun

[ornate torrent]

i think u need to do all of the bellhart wishes

[trail pier]

Someone book a flight and carry this fucking flee dodge

[naive pollen]

7 is plenty the most you can have prior to act 3 is 9 youd need to get that to have another hit without dying anyways

[final mirage]

Alr

[dark tree]

It does pretty good damage, I think it's somewhere around half nail damage. I haven't tested if it contributes to stagger count, but I know the third hit of snitch pick clawline does

[fiery burrow]

There is no way to make coral tower unfun*

[leaden delta]

oh damn

[trail pier]

Im actually getting pissed by this minigame

[normal token]

I've certainly found it fun lol

[kindred iris]

is there a mod that lets you re fight bosses?

[fiery burrow]

What minigame?

[dark tree]

Yupp

[normal token]

The feeling of stacking beast bind and flintslate goes nutty

[remote onyx]

i dont understand, its just kinda chaotic

[random folio]

where he at now?

[untold elk]

I still haven't updated my copy of the game
Should I update it?

[polar falcon]

ptsd buzzsaws intensifies

[warm gazelle]

do i fight groal in this state?

[kindred iris]

send the mod please, i need to fight my ||karmelita|| again 🙏

[fiery burrow]

Yeah seems good

[naive pollen]

add fleabrew

[remote onyx]

in general i feel like this game has less fun bosses than hk, and the enemy gauntlets just feel chaotic and annoying

[leaden delta]

I’ll probably go through double beastfly with all crests, I’m just playing around with silksong architect first since that just released

[shut marlin]

Does lace have platinum gooch

[warm gazelle]

the cemetery in shellwood

[livid tree]

how much longer is the longclaw even on hunter

[trail pier]

PoP was enjoyable flee dodge isnt

[dark tree]

I just used the thunderstore mod manager, it's called Godhome on there

[pine crow]

You might be cooked but sure

[polar falcon]

you absolutely can, but could you win?

[hallow egret]

19% i think

[random folio]

thanks bro

[normal token]

Part of why I find it fun, I feel like I can flex the combat the most here and mixing tools and skills is overall what I love

[trail pier]

Id rather fight pure vessel and absrad at the same time

[naive pollen]

wait im dumb beast only has 1 red doesnt it

[tight viper]

Looking it up again and I’m not sure why it’s not triggering, saw something about psalm cylinders so maybe that if you haven’t got em all?

[normal token]

It has 2 red

[hallow egret]

no

[mortal bluff]

How does one get here?

[fiery burrow]

If we get a Godhome in this game we need a way to refight coral tower fr

[warm gazelle]

nope, just grinding out my lack of beast crest experience
i did get to phase 2 though

[naive pollen]

then add flea brew

[flint rover]

Man, coral tower is a doozy.
What's the best way to deal with the flying ninjas?

[leaden delta]

well actually nah ill run it again

[warm gazelle]

through the top i can assume

[frail merlin]

If you can't flea dodge no way in hell you could do this

[remote onyx]

im glad to see people are enjoying this game at least, but i just find it annoying and tedious 90% of the time 🙁

[naive pollen]

in act 3 its impossible

[polar falcon]

honest advice, getting eaten is not the worst thing. You get some free hits on him

[trail pier]

Sure

[fiery burrow]

Use the harpoon/clawline for flying enemies if you aren't already, its a super valuable part of your kit

[tight viper]

I’m hoping it isn’t too late and that there’s some second point of no return I don’t know about

[normal token]

You can try to spawn-camp em with thread storm or use clawline to swoosh to them

[trail pier]

Flea dodge just sucks its only rng

[thin horizon]

Don't I get sent to act 3 if a I travel with the fleas a second time

[naive pollen]

in act 2 breakable wall

[tight viper]

Nah

[quiet latch]

steel soul area

[frail merlin]

Me when flying enemies

[warm gazelle]

not sure how that works, i've only ever avoided the attack

[remote onyx]

wait can you lock yourself out of 100% by progressing

[storm ether]

The exploration and most enemies are genuienly amazing, but there are some ancounters or areas that make you want to uninstall... too much for my liking

[naive pollen]

no you onyl activate act 3 after ||doing the alternate kill on GMS with the soul snare you cant do that quest line until you have moved the fleas to their final location||

[lyric minnow]

what is this for in bilewater

[mortal bluff]

So my map is forever incomplete?
what was in there?

[quiet latch]

there are auto saves for a reason.. no 😒

[slender lily]

how do i get seared organ and shredded organ?

[flint rover]

I can't hit them with claw line, they're too fast

[quiet latch]

its steel soul only area

[normal token]

pimpillo and drill or beast crest

[thin horizon]

So third time then

[jade compass]

||testing spoilers on mobile||

[mortal bluff]

I’m getting conflicting info here

[tight viper]

You can’t lock yourself out of 100%, but you can make it a lot harder to get 100% and you can lock yourself out of a few extra things, just some Easter eggs and whatnot

[kindred iris]

could you help me install it? i can't find the install for thunderstore mod manager, is it called r2 mod manager

[frail merlin]

Harpoon is really fast. I don't understand this

[leaden delta]

btw benji if u wanna do the beastfly thing, i do suggest no nail upgrades and no health upgrades, but take everything else

[remote onyx]

ok, thank u

[tight viper]

The fleas never take you to act 3, but they are required to trigger act 3

[jade compass]

Getting to ||act 3|| is def one of the low points of silksong for me so far

[leaden delta]

i have a save for it if u need

[quiet latch]

its what i've heard

[warm gazelle]

wait you get shredded organs from claw swipes but not from the actual drill that is the architect crest?

[ocean vessel]

||lace v2 is probs so far my fav boss
like omg the attacks and the speed are just perfect for me, i love it||

[odd oriole]

Slow people

[brave marten]

act 3 has fucked my grinding spot i was getting like 110 rosaries a run, wheres the best spot now?

[delicate monolith]

wait how do i get shakras and/or garmonds help?

[dark tree]

https://thunderstore.io/c/hollow-knight-silksong/

[split cape]

Beware that your save file may get corrupted so make a backup

[naive pollen]

honestly i forget its not somethign important i think its only a visual lore thing not even a lroe tablet like the seal of binding in the weavers den in hollow knight

[odd oriole]

Still the hallway with the grand reeds

[storm ether]

I didn't like the random parry followups

[normal token]

I've heard it does but never did it myself

[rough quiver]

I’m still in act 2 what’s this spot?
