sk-discussion

[sinful swift]

Truth nuke

[oblique quarry]

why are we hating on reaper gang, just let ppl use what they want

[foggy tapir]

well the down pogo is an evasive pretty much so theres that

[noble jolt]

Said by wanderer fans and nobody else

[umbral ether]

i have killed every boss since ive gotten it with reaper i don't think it is ass

[strong tendon]

Because reaper sucks ass

[oblique quarry]

this reminds me of people who would dog on others for using sharp shadow

[foggy tapir]

correct!

[tulip tiger]

I wouldent say good but def manageable

[whole crest]

we are just saying, u can use it tho

[bold breach]

Charms are probably more powerful, but tools are a better system IMO since they don't have the problem charms do where endgame builds are locked into using strength, quick slash, and shaman stone because they're too generically good

[hollow galleon]

Low far fields

[mental arch]

do we fw the tragic bug yaoi

[sinful swift]

Here comes Mr Ethics

[smoky bridge]

Like I was making discussion. I wasn't complaining that Architect does reduced damage to Father of the Flame.

[naive geyser]

I'm a fan of wanderer and i also like reaper and i use it time to time.

[elfin totem]

honestly ive used all crests and beaten a few bosses with each they are all good but reaper is just not enjoyable and just ass

[dull cape]

stand on the sides of platforms. make sure you pogo the big flea when it's needed, and be ready to use clawline for stalls

[smoky bridge]

I was noticing something that surprised me.

[noble jolt]

It has a great pogo and great range and great silk economy

[sacred crater]

Reaper is moreso about survivability

[elfin totem]

hunter is literally better in every aspect

[graceful cairn]

well here we are again

[elfin timber]

is || bile water || optional

[umbral ether]

yes

[oblique quarry]

well by saying that a crest is ass ur making an argument that you should switch to another crest, so don't try and ask like ur not making a persuasive argument

[sinful swift]

Wanna do act 3?

[noble jolt]

Hunter has less range and the worst pogo and doesn't give you silk as good

[bold breach]

Not for true ending

[slim thorn]

A bit

[umbral ether]

honestly no crest in silksong seems ass so far

[oblique quarry]

PEAKKKKKK

[tulip tiger]

For main game yes

[elfin totem]

im not i dont care if you use it im just saying its dogshit

[foggy tapir]

NOOOOO YOU NEED TO USE IT FOR DAMAGE 😭 😭 😭
hehe funi lon dah go brrrrr

[naive geyser]

Reaper's silk regeneration is better.

[short hawk]

new playthrough or did you figure out how to die in the dream

[graceful cairn]

for beating act 2 no. for getting to act 3 yes.

[whole crest]

chill boy, reaper is garbage compare to other but feel free to play it

[elfin timber]

sigh…..

[timid plinth]

here is the thing, the reaper generates less still because of its slow dps

[graceful cairn]

doing steel soul 100% (so yes new file)

[smoky bridge]

I don't like Wanderer personally, but I wouldn't call it bad.

[foggy tapir]

wanna get to act 3?

[elfin totem]

dawg you shouldnt run out of silk and also the damage increase on hunters is insane and also wanderers, witches, architect they r all better

[brittle elbow]

if y'all wanna use the "extra crest slots" mod
i made a .json that doesn't add extra slots, just replaces reaper crest's red-down into white-down

[dull cape]

wowie

[smoky bridge]

Oops, accidental ping sorry mintr

[bold breach]

The pogo is pretty good for combat, you get actual attack speed, and focus buildup is very powerful on a lot of lategame bosses

[slim thorn]

Yeah why use it for damage when i need speed traversing the world

[tacit sentinel]

Silk economy 😭

[inland wind]

are the skarrs haunted or are they just assholes by nature

[noble jolt]

It doesn't though

[elfin totem]

yea exactly hunters is way better then reaper

[elfin timber]

welp, || groat or whatever your name was || im coming back

[sterile plank]

Clrscr

[tight palm]

I guess you could say.. its pale-down..

[naive geyser]

They're just assholes

[mental arch]

Maxed out hunter crest is probably the best in the game

[short hawk]

Y e s .

[pure oar]

I don't understand why they made such a late game silk skill so bad. Why is each nail of pale nails equal to 1 nail swing

[noble jolt]

ye

[umbral ether]

no?

[foggy tapir]

can yall just move this hating to dms? i dont want to smell the sweat of a wanderer main

[sacred crater]

To be fair, that's only the case for bosses that stand still and let you nuke them

[dull cape]

like various tribes in HK they are territorial & for good reason

[vagrant python]

I think i should start using wanderers crest icl
I like the range and delay of reaper but wanderers can attack while sprinting

[bold breach]

They're the mantis tribe without any chill

[fringe vigil]

so when I was in this room and completed it I pressed a button to pick up this thing on the floor at the very same moment door opened and now everything stopped, I cant move, I cant pick it up

What do I do? Is reloading the only way?

[noble jolt]

if you don't get hit, yeah.

Then again architect and shaman are also pretty cracked

[elfin totem]

i wouldnt go that far wanderers is better in general and i PERSONALLY like witches more but its still way better then reapers and really good

[sinful swift]

Shamans crest fucking sucks tho

[umbral ether]

reaper does not feel slow at all

[foggy tapir]

and thats your ONLY reason?

[hollow galleon]

When do you ise it to stall? I only use it to get back on platforms

[oblique quarry]

reaper is just honestly a great crest for it's silk regen and range, it may not have good dps but it provides safe GP

[dull cape]

bilewater's residents as well

[pure oar]

Try basic hunter crest once you get used to the dive it's so good

[mental arch]

Shaman is butt cheeks outside of flea juggle

[smoky bridge]

They are haunted, but purely in the way that their intelligence has taken a severe hit.

They are still loyal to their queen

[brittle elbow]

nooo i dont understand the reference

[noble jolt]

you should ask in #sk-lore

[tight palm]

Wanderers also has crit damage

[elfin totem]

i did flea juggle with wanderers bro

[vagrant python]

Architect down slash sucks

[oblique quarry]

and honestly, it has the same red tool slots as hunter so worst comes to worst you could also use tools

[foggy tapir]

shawatary confinement

[whole crest]

if you guys didnt now

[dull cape]

you would stall to recover if you get booped

[tulip tiger]

Shamans great

[vagrant python]

No i hate it lmfao
Its so bad

[sinful swift]

HOT PEOPLE USE ARCHITECT OR HUNTER IDGAF

[oblique quarry]

wanderer's is a goated crest

[fringe vigil]

?

[pure oar]

What's so bad about it

[smoky bridge]

Architect down slash does a lot of damage. People just refuse to charge the down pogo

[naive geyser]

Bruh i dont understand where this hate of reaper crest comes from when literally nobody else is this divided on other crests 😭

[timid plinth]

im not a wanderer main vro, also im just sharing what i do know

[mental arch]

You have to heal on the ground lol

[dull cape]

why are you mixing up "i can't do it" with "it's bad"

[jaunty robin]

Did you beat steel soul yet?

[short hawk]

pretty much, if you wanted to play aggressively then you can always use any other crest I mean Beast

[vagrant python]

Because i can do it
And just dont like it

[mental arch]

Witch wanderer and hunter are imo the 3 best. Architect is good if you just want to cheese the game with tools

[noble jolt]

pfff naw stack that shit with volt and it turns cross stitch and pale nails into absolute nonsense damage wise.

Not to mention, it turns thread storm into a nuclear bomb

[foggy tapir]

solitary confinement
shawatary confinement

[umbral ether]

reaper does not feel slow at all imo

[smoky bridge]

That's preference, not "so bad"

[hollow galleon]

Good idea

[dull cape]

if you can do it, then you don't hate it because you know it is good

[oblique quarry]

people be thinking "less dps" = bad crest

[vagrant python]

Its literally not a difficult thing to use
I just dont like it 😭

[jaunty robin]

💯💯💯

[elfin totem]

yea bro i think u need to get good

[short hawk]

this means that all mask makers have that eye style?

[tulip tiger]

Makes up for it with better spells and longer range

[whole crest]

on my first run rn, the two last achievement i need

[jaunty robin]

How far?

[tacit sentinel]

Hunter crest is only good if you're a hitless runner

[noble jolt]

I didn't say that was untrue

[whole crest]

yessssir, like hk1

[elfin totem]

its not in general it is a good crest even if you get hit

[bold breach]

It really does just come down to how slow it is kneecapping its damage cause every crest deals the same amount of damage (except architect but it's weird and still almost the same)

[naive geyser]

"Eww, you play defensively? Pussy ahh."

[sacred crater]

If Reaper is bad because it's slow then that makes Hunter bad compared to Wanderer

[short hawk]

I was referencing the HK mask maker actually

[dull cape]

only if you feel you need a damage boost.

[vagrant python]

"You dont like hunter youre bad 🤓"

[elfin totem]

hunter IS bad compared to wanderer wanderer is better then miles but hunter is still good

[lost wind]

How much is the broken mask from the vendor in hunters march

[oblique quarry]

exactly 💀

[foggy tapir]

oh boy! time to go to the hollow knight dc!
I say as i smell the sweat of wanderer mains.

[last plover]

Btw do people use tool on boss fight

[whole crest]

far fields

[smoky bridge]

Jesus fucking Christ people in this chat cannot grasp preferences.

[oblique quarry]

this

[ebon yarrow]

you dont?

[dull cape]

I didn't say you're bad, you're the one named "trash" and calling things bad. You're part of that gamer culture that needs to call everything bad if you don't like it

[tacit sentinel]

The only reason to use hunter is cuz of the damage boost. Otherwise it's useless

[short hawk]

if you arent using tools on boss fights, what ARE you using them on??

[whole crest]

wdym?

[cyan sage]

I just discovered I can charge architect downslash

[bold breach]

I think 240?

[jaunty robin]

Beast has the highest dmg potential but imo is the worst out of the six

[vagrant python]

Wanderer has crits and the Highest dps
It also has normal downslash

[oblique quarry]

the down pogo is not forgiveable 😭

[cyan sage]

My life would've been so much easier if I knew

[lost wind]

I hope your right 😭

[brittle elbow]

i combined jade seeking gold with pale cloak hornet

[amber parcel]

I just had silksongs true ending spoiled by a dum short💔

[naive geyser]

I like all crests and i can see their different uses.

[last plover]

I try it on boss fight but usually just died a lot and the shard are gone

[sacred crater]

"Freedom of speech is only okay if I agree with it"

[elfin totem]

imo its not beast is really underrated and its better then reaper then miles because of the offensive playstyle but its not for everyone

[jaunty robin]

It’s funny because reaper players are the pogo dlc mains

[last plover]

Mostly just arena that stinks

[tacit sentinel]

Looks sick

[short hawk]

do they know (there's seven crests...)

[pure oar]

It's only upside is slightly more silk while every other crest has some sort of damage bonus it can carve as a niche. Like witch crest has long range and the best charge skill when it comes to damage, wanderer has crit, beast actually just has the most dps after it binds, hunter has the focus, architect is chucking money at all your problems but reaper doesn't really have a niche

[tulip tiger]

People act like other peoples playstyles hurt them

[elfin oasis]

It is, unless you're really good at avoiding damage. Wanderer is the crest when you want low effort high yield

[noble jolt]

If reaper is so bad, then reaper players should be commended for their high skill in using it since they're doing the hardest crest supposedly.... Right wanderer players?

[vagrant python]

buy everything else and wait for him to die to get it for free

[timid plinth]

it is NOT bad because the range makes up for its dps
the reason why wanderer is very fast is because you'd have to be facetanking most of the time, which is riskier

[lost wind]

67

[mental arch]

beast is good for cheesing a few bosses but the pogo being so ass makes some bosses just like not possible

[umbral ether]

it is kinda cute

[broken flume]

coral tower is genuinely bullshit

[dull cape]

not every way to express a preference is equal. gamers too often don't understand this

[lost wind]

I don’t wait

[vagrant python]

I LOVE REAPER CREST ITS SO GOOD

[jaunty robin]

Nah the silk restoration single handley out paced it

As well as the inf silk build is just stupid.

Also I’m pretty sure majority of the community is passive pogo players

[dry narwhal]

why are wanderer crest users making fun of others when they're the ones refusing to learn a new moveset and staying with the one from hk

[mental arch]

its statistically the worst crest in the game

[elfin totem]

pogo isnt ass you need to get used to it, but i cant really judge im not used to it ive seen people negate damage of bosses with the pogo you just need to practice a shit ton

[naive geyser]

Thats because it's meant to be more of a defensive crest probably. It has good range and silk regen.

[last plover]

Source?

[vagrant python]

Wrong 🗣🗣
Infinite silk production factory

[sacred crater]

I use wanderer for my True Final Boss speedrun. 1:13

[bold breach]

People just end up getting better at dodging and move away from defensive options in games like this, so Reaper falls off compared to the other options

[umbral ether]

why are people even calling reaper crest bad

[oblique quarry]

worse dps does not equal to bad crest

[elfin totem]

ive tried every single crest and did bosses with them but reaper is just not enjoyable and it just isnt good imo

[dull cape]

lol if you are trying to play all the crests in the same way then there's your first problem

[pure oar]

But majority of the time being aggro is the key for the boss

[ebon yarrow]

are the statistics in the room with us?

[umbral ether]

no crest in this game feels bad

[noble jolt]

fr

[oblique quarry]

its basically "ewww you play defensively? ewwwww skill issue"

[tulip tiger]

The best crest is different for everyone

[glossy wind]

except for shaman crest dash attack

[dull cape]

yeah if you're trying to get through the game fast instead of learning things and feeling the success of deep understanding and self-improvement

[fossil trench]

Uhhhh I found this whiny ass vine

[vagrant python]

I wouldn't even call reaper defensive
Its just slower than other crests

[umbral ether]

i don't have that crest yet so i can't confirm

[elfin totem]

reaper is not terrible but i think its just underwhelming compared to all the other crests with cool abilities

[fossil trench]

Idk what it’s supposed to do

[glossy wind]

it does literally nothing a dash attack should reasonably do

[timid plinth]

the range makes up for its slow dps
it is meant to be a hit and run crest, doesn't necessarily mean it is bad

[dry narwhal]

i stuck with hunter the entire time, but my sister has been using reaper and the extra silk has been super useful for her

[elfin oasis]

Right, but I'm guessing you're doing a good job at avoiding damage then. Speedruns assume you play perfectly at least most of the time, for maybe 85% of players I think Wanderer would come out ahead.

[sacred crater]

I like to switch crests depending on the boss. If wanderer doesn't work out, I sacrifice my DPS to switch to Reaper for more range and that juicy uppercut

[bold breach]

It's slow, and the silk generation passive isn't enough to make up for comparisons to wanderer or hunter dps

[lost wind]

Evolved hunter is underrated and is lowkey nasty

[dry narwhal]

why do people give a damn what other pepole use

[mental arch]

source; it has 41.6 dps with the slowest basic attack and lowest base nail damage

[oblique quarry]

that's exactly what it's meant for

[dull cape]

it also is more likely to hit many enemies at once.

[vagrant python]

THE UPPERCUT IS SO PEAK

[jaunty robin]

Architect has the worst down pogo in my opinion because it’s the only diagonal linear pogo

You can move beast and shaman is just a slam so it’s not bad but beast is terrible because it’s just highlighted in its worst ways

[elfin totem]

i dont but im just saying it was underwhelming and couldve gotten a special bind or something its just not fun to play IMO

[smoky bridge]

Fym lowest base damage

[umbral ether]

does anyone else find the twisted bud cute

[glossy wind]

it locks you in basically a full second of end lag, doesnt follow up into any other combo, and shoots you backwards, feels absolutely awful to do, and it doesnt even have a range increase over the base attack so its literally better 100% of the time to stop your sprint and use your regular attack

[sacred crater]

The dopamine I get when I kill an enemy with the uppercut and it just flies off

[nocturne beacon]

kinda ngl

[lost wind]

I hate that stupid thing

[midnight pier]

is it alright if I send an act 2 spoilers because I would like to know if I am insane for seeing a connection to these 2 things?

[elfin totem]

architects crst is broken which makes up for the pogo so its ok kind of

[last plover]

I mean yeah cause sometimes the attack space only let u deal one attack sometimes, and u can charge attack so its nothing burger

[ebon yarrow]

agree

[vagrant python]

Beast crest?

[glossy wind]

shaman

[vagrant python]

Oh i dont have that one yet

[smoky bridge]

THE POGO IS GOOD!
PEOPLE JUST REFUSE TO CHARGE IT

[glossy wind]

beast crest pogo is absolutely awful but for very different reasons

[mental arch]

no way to augment its damage

[nocturne beacon]

Extremely cursed screenshot (look at my spool bar)

[crystal ledge]

AYO HWAT

[elfin totem]

its not ive seen people negate damage with it you just need practice

[naive geyser]

I think Architect is just boring.

[vagrant python]

Because i shouldn't have to charge a pogo 🥀

[mental arch]

I promise u guys are trolling by finding reaper crest and just using it for the entire game

[fleet glen]

YESSSSSS

[dull cape]

so we don't count "earn way more silk to actually get to use silk skills" to count toward "cool abilities"?

[timid plinth]

the beast crest has extremely high skill ceiling

[ebon yarrow]

sounds a bit hard to do on a boss fight

[vagrant python]

How am I meant to charge a pogo between each jump 🥀🥀🥀🥀

[short hawk]

wdym "AYO HWAT"

[fleet glen]

LOST LACE IN 7 TRIES

[elfin oasis]

Hornet likes big and fluffy creatures

[glossy wind]

oh yeah thats the only thing its good for

[crystal ledge]

just imagine how much that would hurt doe

[jaunty robin]

Reaper players are just pogo enthusiasts. Also I like blitzing and being aggressive and that’s the best crest for that playstyle

I mean really what else are we contending with? The “RANDOM BULLSHIT GO” build that’s insane broken or “POGO POGO SILK POGO”

Hornet base build is good, but I like running and dashing a lot so 🤷🏾‍♂️

[sacred crater]

Not enough talk about Witch crest. It's also a pretty fun crest

[elfin totem]

yea almost all crests have silk skills its not a cool ability i wish it had a cool bind or something to make it stand out

[lost wind]

Evolved hunter crest is the best crest

[glossy wind]

except you could also do that with the hunter crest which is just magnitudes better

[bold breach]

You only get it after using silk to heal, and wanderer spam makes a ton of silk without losing damage

[mental arch]

Its incredibly strong idk why people aren't using it

[fleet glen]

Wanna know how I beat Lost Lace?

WITH REAPER

[smoky bridge]

Yeah, you gotta find a right move to capitalise on, and it doesn't work on all bosses.

[jaunty robin]

It’s peak, enough said

[vagrant python]

You can fill your silk bar in like 8 hits off a boss its genuinely amazing

[naive geyser]

I've heard plenty talk about witch, i like it too

[jaunty robin]

I bet you loved that silk with spool or reserve bind

[smoky bridge]

For example, Lugoli and Enraged Conchfly are not architect pogo-able

[mental arch]

Witch crest is the only one to my knowledge that gets i frames on certain attacks

[elfin totem]

beast crest and shamans crest are really underrated crests that only a few people like but they are good in their own ways, i dont use either a lot so i cant really judge

[wet pollen]

reaper has carried me all the way until i got witch

[fleet glen]

Didn’t use Reserve Bind

[glossy wind]

i use the shaman crest its actually really good if you know how to use it

[sacred crater]

It took me a while but I did ||Lost Lace|| using only the nail and the damage from the tendrils while healing

[short hawk]

...I'm confused, ||are you going nuts over the term "breeding" or smth||

[dull cape]

i can't tell if you're supporting the point that wanderer is cheap and boring and the easiest crest

[jaunty robin]

Beast crest is just running and basically binding and hoping for the best

[elfin totem]

beast crest is super underrated people dont take the time to learn the pogo tho

[naive geyser]

Shaman crest with cross stich........

[dry narwhal]

cool. have fun with wanderer. i don't care what you use
not a reason to shit on other people for using other crests (not necessarily you specifically, just something i observed when i opened this discussion)

[weak mauve]

guys i ve tried everything to find this flea. i dont wanna straight up look it up. could u guys tell me if i missed a wall? (red line i searched already)

[last plover]

Majority of the time i lost my shard and use nail anyway

[jaunty robin]

What about spool?

[elfin oasis]

Crest meta only really matters if you're like top 10%, for the average player preference is just fine.

[elfin totem]

isnt that witches crest too 😭 ??? its just playing offensively

[fleet glen]

I originally was using Wanderer just to rail on Lace

But I switched to Reaper since it’s more Passive and has hella range

Lace doesn’t have that much HP so I just did one or two hits at a time

[wet pollen]

i love witch crest im currently using it. the only downside to me isnt the fact that you have to be near the enemy to heal, but the fact that i always forget lmao

[glossy wind]

its not even worth it to learn the pogo because the hunter's crest is like objectively better but the beast crest is really fun

[dull cape]

one of your red spots down below needs to be searched more.

[hollow galleon]

Doesn’t architect have highst dps with the needle art combined with flintslate?

[elfin oasis]

I beat LL with just hunter and I didn't even do a good job at avoiding attacks so it was arguably the worst crest for me in that moment

[left seal]

yo where do you get the flea map

[fleet glen]

I am one fragment away from Max Spool I believe

[short hawk]

fun fact: the first time I beat LL I did it exclusively by dealing damage with Cross Stitch (Shaman/Volt Fila/Weavelight) and it was PEAK

[crystal ledge]

js like breeding with spikes how painful and inefficient that would be

[elfin totem]

beast crest is fun but not viable for some things

[inner zephyr]

Is multibind good on witch? I don't know fully what it does

[weak mauve]

damn alright ty

[mental arch]

me too

[sacred crater]

There's a route through Greymoor you need to find

[smoky bridge]

But you can Lobotomize Beastfly, for example.

[elfin totem]

its preferance i like injectors band more

[oblique quarry]

heals u faster for 2 times each with 2 health

[jaunty robin]

Yea no it’s all jokes, ima defend my crest all day

Someone said that im just being an HK bandwagon when the second best aggro build is beast and beast is the least effective on imo

[mental arch]

Multibind+injector band

[dull cape]

that is, leave the underworks, it will not get you to the flea, but one of your OTHER red spots will

[vagrant python]

Where did you get flea map?

[mental arch]

You get a 4 mask heal nuke

[naive geyser]

Cross stitch is the most fun silk skill in the game imo

[jaunty robin]

I don’t think so anymore, the patch nerfed it

Still the most broken crest in the game tho

[inner zephyr]

Okay that's what I was wondering gotcha, got the mirrors too

[left seal]

i love cross stitch

[brittle elbow]

ts so silly

[midnight pier]

||am I insane for seeing a connection between grandmother's silk's weapons and her legs I think they look really similar with her legs being a less detailed and connected into 2 leg so am I insane for seeing this or not?||

[cyan sage]

If witch long ranges count them

[vagrant python]

Is it actually good for battle

[serene marsh]

cross stich is just diffiicult to use

[raven tinsel]

I didn’t know it was called that 🤷‍♀️

[mental arch]

what could u possibly be talking about

[crystal ledge]

izzat a big ass flea

[smoky bridge]

It's now in-line with Wanderer. It got nerfed a lot

[naive geyser]

Thats debatable, but it is very fun tho

[inner zephyr]

Is that unlockable or mod

[umbral ether]

i guess that is where that tentacle sprite is used

[fleet glen]

Sister of the Void

Shoutout to Reaper Crest and Cogflys

Couldn’t have done it without you

[bold breach]

My point is that silk generation as a passive is hurt by lower attack speed, so other crests can have similar levels of silk without giving up dps. No crest is unusable, but reaper just doesn't do much to stand out imo.

[midnight pier]

Act 2 spoilers

[mental arch]

I know

[jaunty robin]

No you have Inv frames so you’re kinda balanced between passive and aggro builds, again, peak build

[serene marsh]

i lowk dont find myself using any silk skills i need to save for binding

[weak mauve]

u need to find a certain flea npc who sells it

[elfin oasis]

Do you want the wall shown?

[brittle elbow]

drifter's cloak? it's in the game

[crystal ledge]

dude he gave up after like 3 seconds

[elfin totem]

thats true beasts crest is one of the most riskiest crest

[dull cape]

it's balanced against the attack speed. 1 hit to an enemy can give you 1.5 bonus silk (2.5 total), and many of the reaper hits can hit a bunch of enemies at once.

[inner zephyr]

No the white outfit

[jaunty robin]

Get the parry, it’s good for crit incoming dmg

[crystal ledge]

weak ass giant flea

[weak mauve]

nah knwoing its somehwere in greymore is enough ty

[naive geyser]

When i have some extra silk i can use some skills

[vagrant python]

My problem with the silk skills is their overall lack of proper damage
Theyre generally lacking
It seems 2 hits from a nail does more damage than all the silk skills I have

[elfin totem]

REAPER AND COGFLY 🥀

[umbral ether]

yeah ain'y no way im beating the final boss with this

[left seal]

does shaman beams have reduced damage like grubberly elegy did cuz it feels lile it does

[brittle elbow]

oh nah, pale cloak hornet mod

[short hawk]

selective breeding is the process of pairing specific individuals together in order to emphasise or eliminate a genetic trait - Hornet is talking about that the Citadel bred Mossgrubs together, emphasising size and fluffiness, but weren't able to get rid of the spines via that method before everyone lost their minds to the Haunting

[mental arch]

shes kinda cake

[elfin totem]

it does im pretty sure but it has increased spell damage im not sure tho

[crystal ledge]

ah thats fine then

[inner zephyr]

Aww man that'd be cool to have outfits for different achievements or something like that

[left seal]

cool

[quasi aspen]

huh, looks like someone needs to uhhhh GIT GUD

[vagrant python]

Where would one find him

[mental arch]

Silksong only has maybe 3 or 4 really like "hard" bosses

[short hawk]

M1 is the same damage as normal but the attack speed is a bit slower

[last plover]

Tool is just feel underwhelming most of the time to me, i either defeat the boss without tool or loss all the shard . Unless im playing wrong

[elfin oasis]

From what I heard you lose the cursed if go to LL with curse on

[fleet glen]

Hey man it worked

Beat Lost Lace 7th try

I started using Reaper crest on the 6th try mainly because I wanted to be more cautious

Cogfly goes crazy on Phase 2 part 2 where she starts spamming

[umbral ether]

i mean the act 2 boss

[elfin totem]

moorwing is complained about for no reason imo its pretty fun

[short hawk]

you thought she was talking about something else huh 😭

[elfin oasis]

ah

[ebon yarrow]

how do you take 2 hours to learn pogo

[vagrant python]

Me when I dont want to play the game using the mechanic the game is built around

[naive geyser]

I think it depends on what playstyle you have, how you choose to interact with the game's mechanics. If you really want to make use out of silk skills you could use shaman.

[astral locust]

I might be the only person that's finding ||nyleth|| harder than ||karmelita||

[inner zephyr]

Really? That's odd, though I'm shocked people would ever do that lol

[mental arch]

it was bad when I had just returned to hollow knight after 6 years

[serene marsh]

beastfly 1 and 2, bell beast and pinstress

[oblique quarry]

yes, yes you are

[dull cape]

"DPS" is first and foremost highly contextual, it refers to a time interval, this is not a game where you hold a button and do uniform DPS for a solid minute

[elfin totem]

💀 💀 💀

[mental arch]

bell beast 😭😭😭😭😭

[last plover]

Tbh as a hk player it definitely suprise me its 2 damage this early

[ebon vector]

Bilewater or choral chambers
Which has the better theme

[crystal ledge]

i thought i read breed WITH the spines 😭

[inner zephyr]

I mean, Colo 3 type fight, it isn't conventional so it can trip you up hard.

[vagrant python]

Bellbeast on this list is fucking criminal

[timid plinth]

i thought hornet would not make herself dive

[ebon yarrow]

maybe

[hollow galleon]

Oh damn

[jaunty robin]

Yea it’s not a bad crest, I wanted to main it at one point, but it’s just highlighted in the worst points. It has range but not good attack speed when the bind is encouraging you to rush

The pogo is just so bad and the if the startup was faster then it wouldn’t be really risky

Like if the reduced the recovery time beast could easily be one of the best

Also it’s locked on binds, no blue tools is really bad because yellow is arguably the worst color

[smoky bridge]

People get so focused on trying to use tools they forget to Yk. Keep doing nail damage and dodging.
You gotta think of tools as something to throw in whenever you're in downtime. They drastically speed up the fight that way

[dull cape]

change up your loadout

[bold breach]

I'm pretty sure the extra silk isn't 1.5 extra per from when I did use reaper, and the amount of times you're hitting more than 2 enemies at once is pretty rare even with reaper's range. All of that also only happens after you heal and only for ~10 seconds or until you get hit.

[mental arch]

the first beast fly fight was easy the second one was just a little annoying w the terrain

[short hawk]

100% you are on your own (remember to change your setups if they aren't working)

[serene marsh]

bell beast took me 10x more times that karmelita

[tropic apex]

bruh

[jaunty robin]

I think wanderer charge has the highest dps now

[nocturne beacon]

why did ||some random boss in whiteward|| have a ||silk heart|| lmao

[dull cape]

every orb is 0.5 silk, you often will get 3 orbs from 1 hit depending on the enemy.
if you are playing reaper like you play wanderer's crest then I would not expect you to be hitting multiple enemies

[astral locust]

She keeps taking my floor from me bro what do I even do

[mental arch]

I think hes pretty lore important

[elfin totem]

i mained witches crest and wanderers instead of beast since its too risky and no blue slots

[serene marsh]

i did the coral tower boss first try, bell beast in 50 tries

[shrewd gate]

Just got to the First Sinner fight. Tried spamming all my tools but it didn’t work on the account of me getting hit over and over

[elfin oasis]

Might've been it, my memory is muddy on it, I just know you can't fight LL with it

[inner zephyr]

You have to make her face the floor

[hollow galleon]

Rlly? I thiught second best was witch if you mash

[fleet glen]

93% and exactly 49 hours for True Ending

[smoky bridge]

With Flintslate? Both were 100 last time I checked?

[last plover]

I mean my down time i either healing or using skill or just nailing it.

[elfin totem]

use cogflies in second phase so you dont have to sneak in hits while shes spamming and you can just let them do the work for u

[vagrant python]

Oh thats the last silk heart im missing
I guess I missed something in white ward

[timid plinth]

this is why i dont use tools

[crystal ledge]

is voltvessel good

[bold breach]

It's inconsistent, and sometimes the orbs end up in some random place out of the way that you can't get to easily or quickly

[shrewd gate]

I spammed all my cogflies as soon as the fight started cause I panicked

[smoky bridge]

By "downtime" I mean during an attack you cannot punish with nail, or when you're dodging projectiles.

[elfin totem]

u need a secret key then use the key in whiteward, key is found in whiteward aswell

[short hawk]

their lore is that they're a bunch of silk-infested corpses so at least it makes sense in THAT way

[patent shuttle]

they experimented on him with silk A LOT, if we wanna question the silk heart placements then tell me why does BELL BEAST have one, what does she know, what has she seen

[jaunty robin]

You’re right I forgot. I don’t use the charge attacks really

A lot of people say that witches charge attack is inconsistent though because if you don’t have tool belt you don’t do all your dmg

[vagrant python]

Hollow purple ahhh tool

[inner zephyr]

Conchcutter my beloved

[brittle elbow]

this is the fix i decided on until i obtain hunter crest coz otherwise i wouldn't be able to open the chapel it's in

[serene marsh]

i feel like silk skills arent very good in general

[smoky bridge]

Whenever I'm not swinging I'm either throwing traps or pins, or...

[brittle elbow]

lifeblood forever

[mental arch]

witch ca is the only one I know of that let's you spam the button for a longer CA

[shrewd gate]

How did you get your hearts all blue

[crystal ledge]

cuz uhh this

[weak mauve]

honestly i forgot where exactly but i belive it was either bilewater or sinnersroad

[dull cape]

i understand that for you, spamming clicks on a target is more fun than managing the orbs and getting to use silk more often. I don't like clicker games and I don't like path of exile

[jaunty robin]

Myb I forgot what to factor in

Hypothetically wouldn’t it be if you got the crit during the charge attack

Is that even possible

[hollow galleon]

Oh interesting

[brittle elbow]

"lifeblood forever" mod

[short hawk]

the Volt Fila/Shaman Silk Storm in question dealing upwards of 226 damage (max nail does 21 per hit):

[tropic apex]

it happened again

[smoky bridge]

Yeah it is possible.

[crystal ledge]

voltvessel isnt a silk skill buffer thats volt filament volt vessel is the tool

[jaunty robin]

Really? I might try that out

[fringe vigil]

I HATE THIS ROOM WHATS WRONG WITH IT

Its such a hell to complete while cursed and when I did it for the first time my game freezed, I couldnt move and I couldnt even exit normally so I had to shut game forcefully. And guess what? I did it again and it froze AGAIN

WHY?!

[vagrant python]

Alright ill explore whiteward again

I do love how much stuff this game has to find after "finishing" hk gave you basically everything before you beat thk
Where as act 2 is completable without double jump

[crystal ledge]

skill issue?

[serene marsh]

oh oops

[dull cape]

game has bugs, get refund

[timid plinth]

i only got one wanderer crit throughout my entire playthrough

[serene marsh]

volt vessel is good

[jaunty robin]

Lmao

[crystal ledge]

k

[fringe vigil]

I hate you even more than this room, its not funny

[strong tendon]

HAHAHAHA

[rigid yarrow]

I usually get one or two minimum per fight? lol

[crystal ledge]

sorry

[brittle elbow]

where's crest of the reaper again

[smoky bridge]

I'm kind of annoyed that they nerfed Aechitect nail art. It was OP, don't get me wrong, but like. Bweh

[jaunty robin]

I think you gotta have a bind ready to activate the passive

[glossy wind]

why the fuck does shaman crest take longer to heal

[mortal lichen]

silksong is so fucking full of bugs, you might as well be playing as just one big walking bug

[timid plinth]

maybe im just that unlucky

[ebon yarrow]

you will get good, dw i beleive in you

[crystal ledge]

u can only crit when u have the silk to bind and the ability is active

[oblique quarry]

uhhhhh guys

[wraith rapids]

who am I missing

[knotty zenith]

is there any way to get back to the ||cradle|| after it collapses in act 3?

[timid plinth]

i do most of the time

[oblique quarry]

whats going on????????????

[ashen drift]

that took way too long

[jaunty robin]

I feel like it definitely stained the tool rep because why did the cost go down too

[fringe vigil]

GET GUD AT WHAT AT GAME NOT GETTING CRASHED???

[wraith rapids]

yes

[serene marsh]

i really wish focuses weren't tied to crests

[knotty zenith]

mind sharing?

[ebon yarrow]

yes

[inland wind]

Insane amount of content

[astral locust]

I've heard ||the room right of the cogwork core, you can fly up?||

[wraith rapids]

the way you came at the start

[jaunty robin]

To answer your question yes

I don’t know how

[smoky bridge]

Cost?

[mortal lichen]

wanderer's attacks with reaper's bind would be op

[knotty zenith]

I'm a little lost where do I go (to reach the cradle again)

[bold breach]

That seems like a lot of work for slightly more silk under specific circumstances, but i'll have to see how it compares

[astral locust]

The people in the channel at the time might've been waffling though

[wraith rapids]

up

[jaunty robin]

Yea like the amount of items went down I think

There’s some shadow nerfs in the game too

Someone said in a video that ||silk-shot|| used to be twenty shots but I when I play it’s under

[tawny palm]

the unravelled is so ass

[knotty zenith]

I can't find a spot 🗿

[timid plinth]

silk soar

[wraith rapids]

[wet pollen]

where do i get the red fly thingies i see so many people with them but i dont have them yet and im in mid game

[nocturne beacon]

HUH WHAT THE HELL (A3)

[hollow galleon]

Poisen tacks to crazy dmg to it

[wraith rapids]

haha

[timid plinth]

high halls

[ashen drift]

just beat it

[wet pollen]

ok ty

[ebon yarrow]

rip bell beast

[jaunty robin]

It’s funny watch you react in real time

[nocturne beacon]

?!?!?!

[ashen drift]

yeah hes dead

[timid plinth]

kill it

[ebon yarrow]

yea she is dead

[knotty zenith]

dw nothing bad happens

[tawny palm]

not much contribution, tried em

[serene marsh]

yes

[jaunty robin]

Avenge bell beast

[fleet glen]

Now that I’ve gotten True Ending, I’m taking a break

May play for a little bit to get 100% and Mementos

[mental arch]

She dies you have to run across pharloom after you beat the boss

[nocturne beacon]

lies

[bold breach]

Yes, and it's worth doing

[nocturne beacon]

OH EW ITS A WORM

[knotty zenith]

centipede, not worm

[timid plinth]

pet it

[strong tendon]

Even if you restart your playthrough, bellbeast is still dead

[crystal ledge]

i cant put it off anymore, its time to do bilewater... SIKE I CAN DO THE SCREAMING MOTHER QUEST OR WHATEVER AND I CAN FIGHT PHANTOM AND I CAN DO PUTRIFIED DUCTS

[nocturne beacon]

yeah typo

[ashen drift]

warning, theres a single memento, that you will want to sell your soul before you end up getting.

[jaunty robin]

It’s in cogworks, you have to get the arch key I think and unlock the room and have the materials to build it

[nocturne beacon]

🔥

[mental arch]

its not even that bad

[fleet glen]

Is it the Seth one

[tawny palm]

i love how silksong allows you to keep track of everything optional

[grim bluff]

its face looks kinda like hornet

[crystal ledge]

sinners road was bad enough dude...

[ebon yarrow]

...

[mental arch]

wait until you do the pale flower quest that makes u run thru there

[knotty zenith]

bilewater is required for act 3 :3

[hollow galleon]

Damn
I didnt find unravellee until recently just cus only now am i trying to 100% the game so
I had most upgrades
Maybe the tools that stay mid air will do good?

[quiet kettle]

Guys, does anyone have any tips on how to defeat Skar singer Karmelita? Any tips are greatly appreciated

[ashen drift]

ive done everything, and i mean EVERYTHING, in the game, except the seth memento

[tawny palm]

yeah let me avoid hell by going to giga hell

ducts suck

[unkempt pine]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1004168682064322670/1418673832734097409/20250919_133305.gif

[jaunty robin]

Can you fill me in without spoiling, like set me on the path? I like discovering stuff

[knotty zenith]

baller parry

[crystal ledge]

im putting it off for as long as possible ok

[crystal ledge]

really i havent heard anything abt them

[timid plinth]

nicee

[knotty zenith]

fair enough, get that nail upgraded and your toolpouch expanded

[wraith rapids]

stay in the air except when she does the thing where she throws the things up

[tawny palm]

the problem is that his huge hitbox makes it hard to hit without taking damage
and he does 2 masks

[fleet glen]

Yeah I’m gonna dread that

So far I have Grey, Surface, Craw, Hero’s Mementos, and Conjoined Hearts

What are the other two besides Seth

[ashen drift]

have you beaten act 3 yet? (dont wanna spoil anything)

[bold breach]

You have to play around her giant anti-air attack, keep the middle of the arena for yourself and don't stay above her too long. Hit and srun strats work very well for her too

[mental arch]

its hard to explain you really just need to find the tempo of the fight. when she charges for a melee attack spam sprint backwards and when she does her ranged attack dash backward and jump. You want to stick to her for most of the fight

[crystal ledge]

i have the hive nail, 2 tool pouches, and 3 crafting kits

[smoky bridge]

Oh, the "ammo" I mean that is fine, trying to reduce Tool spam is reasonable. Nerfing the Flintsteel nailart interaction on Architect is reasonable too, but I feel like it was a bit overdone in this case, considering wanderer's got the same treatment, and will now always outperform it, as long as it gets even a single crit

[ashen drift]

you need the sprintmaster, (go back to him theres another race when you beat act 3) and the hunters, you get it from filling out the journal.

[jaunty robin]

I got the true ending, I just like discovering stuff on my own but ever since being unaware wisp thicket exists I became painfully aware that I need help finding stuff

[bold breach]

Sprintmaster is one, IDK the other

[regal stone]

How many tools do I need to get to buy the architects key and get the architects crest?

[knotty zenith]

I'm not actually sure how much more you can get before bilewater but fleas give you one I think (don't remember which, I think it was pouch cap)

[brittle elbow]

aight now i can get whatever eva's selling

[fleet glen]

Ah Icic

I’m not getting Hunters rn

May get Sprintmaster

[jaunty robin]

Wdym? Will architect always outperform wanderer?

[unkempt pine]

i freed big dude

[timid plinth]

FLUFFY

[fallow solar]

Bilewater music is so angelic for a place that’s literally hell

[quiet kettle]

Large

[fleet glen]

I didn’t even know Conjoined Hearts was a memento

Free stuff I guess

[timid plinth]

real

[tawny palm]

whiteward is cool asf wish the boss wasn't ass

[knotty zenith]

chunky flea

[pine frost]

Yeah

[ashen drift]

yeah, the race is just the last one, except 6 laps instead of 3

[tight palm]

Fat flea, big fluffy fat flea

[tawny palm]

the heart memento is whatever heart u dont use to get everbloom

[knotty zenith]

found the way alr

[smoky bridge]

Architect and Wanderer had a bugged interaction with Flintslate, where their nail arts were getting buffed too much.

After nerf, they are both "fixed" but Wanderer's Needle Art will effectively do better damage, as long as it gets even one crit.

[verbal trench]

balala

[nocturne beacon]

AND IT'S ||BELL BEAST|| WITH THE STEEL CHAIR THIS TIME!!!

[crystal ledge]

yeah i heard bout that one the only reason i dont got 3 tool pouches rn is cuz i refuse to do that damn target practice

[unkempt pine]

omgg my little dude

[ashen drift]

you find ||shrine guardian seth|| in a few areas, and go to fleatopia where you beat him in the 3 mini games. (its like really REALLY hard)

[knotty zenith]

spoiler for act 3 but ||the guy fucking dies and you get it for free||

[nocturne beacon]

HELL YEAH LIARS ITS ALIVE

[hollow galleon]

But thats intended
Cus crits are wanderers big selling point anyway right?

[tropic apex]

i´m in greymoor rn

[tawny palm]

i will go get architect crest and spam spikes on unravelled

[fleet glen]

Oh, I’d assumed it would only be Conjoined since it’s the hidden one of the 4

Makes sense that in case you got conjoined and didn’t get another then that would be the memento

[crystal ledge]

i know i looked up how to get around that so im waiting for that

[vernal arch]

@pure surge You said I couldn’t do it

[nocturne beacon]

woah!!!!! thing!!!

[wet pollen]

im at the point of the game where i realize i missed a ton of stuff so now i need to backtrack through the entire game to get upgrades :C

[radiant haven]

Silksong map without compass is...
interesting.

[fleet glen]

I’d guess that Conjoined Heart is usually the “intended” Memento though

[jaunty robin]

He’s ALIVE??

[ashen drift]

you shouldnt be able to revive her till act 21 idk how you did it

[mossy sage]

bro holy shit this unreavelled boss is annoying

[tawny palm]

exactly

if you get all 4 and then talk to the shamans, conjoined heart is the memento

[smoky bridge]

Yeah, I know. I'm just mildly miffed.

(The interaction of getting to have this insane needle art Flintslate was really fun)

[nocturne beacon]

i used wanderers

[ashen drift]

yep, first place to find him is where shakra was in greymoor

[ebon yarrow]

nice

[radiant haven]

ikr...
like wtf.

Pointy tacks are nice against it though

[chrome fable]

Who else kept their hornet statue?

[umbral pivot]

WE ALL hate bell eater

[grim bluff]

ignore the blocking sounds, dont get tilted, just treat it like a big health pool. When she does spin jump, try to dash over the spikes into a spot where you can instantly pogo. Just attack once or twice per cycle. Attack her projectiles to deflect them rather than only relying on dodging. Use tools a lot especially in the last phase since shell shards are free. Use needle strike to one shot most of the mobs.

[umbral pivot]

Of course

[jaunty robin]

You’re a menace if you broke it

[ebon yarrow]

i like the boss fight, hate the creature

[tawny palm]

bell eater is just trynna survive 😔 its nature

[nocturne beacon]

based actually it sucks

[north cipher]

My game is bugged I lost the the skull tyrant in bone bottom but then he just didnt respawn. But the game is still acting like hes there

[ashen drift]

i broke it in tough times, i hope people understand the ||lost lace|| grind...

[knotty zenith]

oh THATS where you get the last silk skill okay

[umbral ether]

that looks painful

[radiant haven]

from the secret brench?

[fresh dagger]

Precept 49, statues are meaningless

[chrome fable]

I was so mad when that tyrant destroyed that one bug's statue in the first area

[fleet glen]

I am not gonna lie

Going into Act 3 and seeing the Bridge in Bone Bottom destroyed made me happy

I had accidentally destroyed the Statue but now I know it was inevitable

Still have the Mini Statue though

[ashen drift]

did you beat ||gms|| while cursed

[nocturne beacon]

guys i dont think they're okay (A3)

[jaunty robin]

Did you try to beat the game before you did this fam

[tawny palm]

hornet got an abortion

[umbral ether]

i haven't even done the melodys

[chrome fable]

Absolutely not. Nothing excuses you and you are forever to be a shame to this community.

[mental arch]

gg man i accidently fell from the top and broke the bridge in act 1

[umbral ether]

im not gonnado that

[ebon yarrow]

nah theyre just sleeping

[umbral pivot]

perhaps yea

[timid plinth]

they moved elsewhere

[ashen drift]

oh mb LMAO

[chrome fable]

Zote low-key had great lines ngl

[knotty zenith]

its silksong obviously smh its in the title

[jaunty robin]

It’s not a major spoil but ||you missed a ending||

[tight palm]

Fraudnet

[mental arch]

do you guys know about any pretty hidden bosses i might be missing

[sonic wagon]

jane silksong

[fresh dagger]

Precept 36, eggshells are brittle

[unkempt pine]

this is silksong from hollow knight

[north cipher]

does someone know how to fix this?

[smoky bridge]

If you buy stuff out they just leave.

[astral locust]

Do I have to 100% the game before ||I give the 3 hearts in||?

[nocturne beacon]

uhmm i might've saved them by buying out their stock in act 1?

[chrome fable]

She's called shaw hollow knight

[mental arch]

No

[light swan]

might grind out lost lace witch crest barbed bracelet ngl

[umbral pivot]

no that’s required for 100% too

[chrome fable]

Huh

[astral locust]

Happened to me, just go away and come back and he should reappear at some point

[jaunty robin]

Wait wait wait

[smoky bridge]

No Idea. I don't look at corpses that closely

[wild latch]

Silksong

[glossy wind]

shaman crest having end lag for their bind has to be the worst thing ever conceived

[ashen drift]

guys guys i just started act 15 and the starting cutscene left me back where you start in act 1, but the needle fell 2 inches to the right 🥶 what do i do

[umbral ether]

this is every crest pre act 3 right

[umbral pivot]

yall sleeping on crust king bro actually very well designed

[jaunty robin]

you can buy out shop keeper? I thought the necklaces were infinite

[hollow galleon]

Haha

[glossy wind]

why is the shaman crest so unimaginably bad

[timid plinth]

he cool

[graceful cairn]

real

[slate jetty]

yall think i beat seth in flea bounce?

[umbral pivot]

yup

[sonic wagon]

the entirety of coral tower:

[serene arrow]

Fuck this guy right here he sucks ass I hate him I hope the soul sanctum finds you

[ashen drift]

i think so yeah

[ebon yarrow]

the Silk Emperor crest is missing

[umbral pivot]

the rest is mid besides the design

[wild latch]

Bald

[ashen drift]

why????? i love him

[graceful cairn]

real

[tawny palm]

ooooiiiiii ooooiiiiiii ooooooooiiiiiiii

[umbral pivot]

OY

[jaunty robin]

Generally all the shamans are jerks but with their dialogue they kinda are vindicated

[graceful cairn]

yes

[knotty zenith]

he's a chill guy man

[unkempt pine]

his comeback will be unreal

[smoky bridge]

shakes cane

Back in my day You could one shot grand reeds with the architect Flintslate Needle Art!

[noble nacelle]

if i were to theoretically upgrade my nail whilst cursed, would it increase my damage?

[chrome fable]

Everybody be running their own personal stuff in pharloom

[slate jetty]

fr i needa get this memento before he beats me 😔

[umbral ether]

being cursed lowers nail damage?

[serene arrow]

I know what he did I hated him even before ||he tricked me into killing like half the NPC’s ||

[unkempt pine]

it would basically send 3 nukes to hollownest

[noble nacelle]

idk thats what im asking

[tawny palm]

yeah
only things that make being cursed less painful are nail and health upgrades
and skill-

[mossy sage]

YES we have double damage on contact
YES we have minions occassionally
YES we have overstimulating passive attacks ur brain cant keep track of
YES we have 2 attacks
YES one of them is 3 projectiles that u cant dodge unless ur in the ceiling pretty much
YES his hitbox takes up 1/4 of the room
YES u get 1 silk heart for this

[chrome fable]

Like the npc's will get so rude when you're parasited

[fresh dagger]

Yes

[umbral pivot]

hollup, if you don’t get the pale oil before seth does that mean you have to beat all of his scores to get the pale oil

[ashen drift]

guys if you make it to act 7 sherma falls out of heaven and onto the surface, but can't get down so sherma gets eaten by mr mushroom

[noble nacelle]

thx guys

[nocturne beacon]

🔥

[jaunty robin]

Like 80% die anyway I don’t think there’s a way to save any of them honestly

[fathom rapids]

Idk why they rememoved this ending, it seemed really cool

dude fighting beastfly

[jaunty robin]

Perfect timing

[serene arrow]

||GARMOND DIED BECAUSE OF HIM IDC WHAT HE DOES AFTER THAT ||

[hollow galleon]

Back in my day you had to actually get good to beat moorwing

[mossy sage]

unravelled

[ashen drift]

awww theyre hugging

[grim bluff]

In the hit new game, Hungry Knight: Silksong, the player must help local silkeater John Silksong perform a magical song to save Pharloom's silk crops from a mysterious blight, and its people from starvation.

[chrome fable]

Honestly, I love this.

[foggy tapir]

i first tried beastfly 1

[chrome fable]

I love bosses that feel impossible

Hollow knight was too easy

[tawny palm]

i fucking hate the unraveled

he is so huge and barely stays on screen

[elfin oasis]

Oh, this guy dies if you don't get to him in time?

[umbral pivot]

hollow knight: pablo

[ashen drift]

ooh i played that, top 5 game imo

[umbral pivot]

such a terrible design

[fleet glen]

Ngl this game has crazy good Wallpaper material

[chrome fable]

WHAT???

[wild latch]

Can we replace every enemy with beastfly?

[slate jetty]

steel osul

[foggy tapir]

zote flash backs

[fiery burrow]

Unraveled spends like half the fight in the ground 😭

[half valve]

Act 4 The Loom Beyond
after being carried back to the surface hornet begins to sense threads tugging at her threads not of silk but of memory and fate a hidden realm the Loom Beyond reveals itself a space where all silks spun and severed throughout Pharloom gather It’s half dreamscape half machine woven from every struggle hornet has endured
The balance restored in act 3 is fragile Though lace is freed the voids whisper persists leaking into the Loom Beyond This realm holds Pharloom’s secret origin it was never just a kingdom but a loomprison meant to contain something older than the Radiance or Void

[elfin oasis]

oh, right

[unkempt pine]

whats that?

[smoky bridge]

Woag...

[ashen drift]

sybau 💔🥀

[tawny palm]

im not exactly saying its a bad design
i just find him frustrating

[chrome fable]

The lace one 🫦

[half valve]

I FINALLY DID ITTTT

[serene arrow]

• Pilrgrims Rest
• The butterfly guy
• All those void masses which weren’t really NPCS but they’re annoying
• GARMOND….
• Bone bottom probably (not everyone cuz survivors camp but still)

[manic latch]

how the hell do i have 47 hours on my save file but my steam playtime is 65.5 hours

[slate jetty]

hes dead cuz silkworms are useless and there is a secret room to the right where u can give up ur silksorms

[umbral pivot]

this one’s goated

[half valve]

after all the writing u said sybau u so grateful man

[fresh dagger]

Pausing?

[mossy sage]

i want to give this game a bad review so badly for wasting my time with fake paths and shit bosses like this but its so good in every other aspect and that just pisses me off more

[noble nacelle]

[unkempt pine]

Oh does he die if i already talked to him

[jaunty robin]

You got a parasite

[umbral pivot]

[smoky bridge]

They be slurping that shiz up long distance.

[foggy tapir]

[wild latch]

Has anyone gotten to Act 4: Bileloom?

[elfin oasis]

No, I was just stupid, another guy mentioned he is dead because I'm in steel soul, obviously can't really use silkeaters.

[mossy sage]

[umbral ether]

[wild latch]

My joke was funnier

[placid zealot]

bro coral tower is impossible omds

[prisma cargo]

shakespeare has nothing on this tragedy

[unkempt pine]

[manic latch]

[jaunty robin]

Why did this give me “oh no gohan just sleeping in the puddle guys” vibes when this happened to me

[chrome fable]

Guys

I'm too tired to type...
@manic latch read my mind

[umbral ether]

[noble nacelle]

[umbral pivot]

[graceful cairn]

[smoky bridge]

Path of bile

[unkempt pine]

bilewater time!!

[chrome fable]

Bile wasn't even that hard

[umbral pivot]

[fleet glen]

I’m in Act 17

The Radiance actually revives Garmond

You team up with Zaza and fight the Solar System

[manic latch]

[wild latch]

I gotta made a mod to replace all the water with the the one in Bilewater

[ashen drift]

guys didnt you hear about act 104,628,292? my favorite part is the putrified bileducts

[umbral ether]

putrificed ducts times

[fresh dagger]

Mount Fay but there’s 20 acid spitters in every room

[unkempt pine]

doesnt zote makes an epic comeback

[foggy tapir]

does the radiance really exist anymore

[chrome fable]

Like nothing ever comes close to deepnest in terms of psychological horror

[prime tundra]

oh god

[tawny palm]

HE HAS MORE HEALTH THAN CRADLE LACE
at least lace stays on screen all the time??

[serene marsh]

are there full silksong patch notes anywhere?

[astral locust]

Bruh did the ||snail shamans|| just die

[umbral pivot]

at least lace is cool lol

[glossy wind]

FUCK SETH

[jaunty robin]

No she was actively traveling, shakra dialogue implies it

What about dice guy lumble

[fleet glen]

The Radiance becomes Garmond

[foggy tapir]

w h a t

[umbral pivot]

seth FIGHT is great

[glossy wind]

WHY DOES HE LITERALLY LEARN RANDOM BULLSHIT IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS SECOND PHASE

[near tulip]

am i cooked chat?

[fleet glen]

Garmond is The Hollow Knight now

[tawny palm]

they did an oopsie and just kill themselves

[ashen drift]

you piece of groal how dare you

[unkempt pine]

just 20?? you’re not serious we need at least 600 with crazy ai and like 7 of that one bird in blasted steps

[prime tundra]

I got over 105 hours, I'm dissapointed I don't have more

[glossy wind]

HE DID NOT KNOW HOW TO DO THAT 10 SECONDS AGO

[tawny palm]

enemies already have aimbot we don't need better ai

[near tulip]

dayum

[foggy tapir]

GUYS I COME TO SPEAK TRUTH.
if you ship lace and hornet, your shipping the monarch with a spider 👍

[crisp nimbus]

Is anyone else having major glitches with the sprint master race?

[serene arrow]

Listen I don’t need reason I just REALLY don’t fw the caretaker specifically 😭

[astral locust]

Can I get 100% whenever or do I have to do it before the final fight

[mossy sage]

me when im in silksong but i lightly touch a centimeter of someones clothing so my fucking arm explodes

[ashen drift]

you do know seth is a tribute to a real person named seth who died of cancer during development right??

[unkempt pine]

its not enough i need it to lock on you and doesnt stop shooting like prime king aspid

[umbral pivot]

i got a crisp 47 hours on my main save, only havent done like 7 bosses

[vagrant python]

Ive seen too many people complaining about the last judge run back and I honestly dont understand why
You can avoid everything
And its simply parkour

[glossy wind]

i would like to retract my statement

[noble nacelle]

guys how do i get better at gms

[fresh dagger]

Rookie time

[eager widget]

royal yuri

[serene marsh]

is he talking about that guy or the boss

[ashen drift]

thank you.

[serene arrow]

Fuck with

[foggy tapir]

caretaker js kinda "fuck you" at the beginning, but he gets nicer

[tawny palm]

enemies in silksong literally have sentience because why is their aim super accurate

and how do they always manage to fall on top of you

[prime tundra]

don't say the g-word here, I'm dreading having to fight him again since I just beat grand mother silk on my steel soul save but still need to do more quests before act 3

[mossy sage]

its like 30 seconds ish not terrible but not ideal

[umbral pivot]

run back shouldn’t involve taking any damage there’s too many accidents to be made

[near tulip]

0.2 hours more than me.. dammit😡

[jaunty robin]

I haven’t

But also the ||alchemist|| and his previous assistant. But the previous assistant doesn’t really count I think

[vagrant python]

Thats
Literally part of the challenge😭

[unkempt pine]

dawg i hate that on npc who calls me a slave in bellhart

[solemn juniper]

Seth was an OC of a kid who died of cancer I believe.

I would be so sad if he got cut though.

[prime tundra]

there's a path where you encounter no enemies

[fresh dagger]

You need to get on the grind

[eager widget]

pathetic

[umbral pivot]

save the damage for the boss fight bro it’s just annoying

[tawny palm]

degrading kink goes hard

[ashen drift]

i actually ended up beating the true final boss without beating groal due to a clipping glitch lmao

[vagrant python]

?????
There isnt one??😭

[fresh dagger]

The bell hermit

[bright agate]

I beat || Last Judge || Third try. YAY

[solemn juniper]

A lot of you struggle because you play silksong like it's hollow Knight.

[vagrant python]

Nicely done!

[tawny palm]

wait i thought he was talking about styx

[eager widget]

styx on the alt

[ashen drift]

gg!

[near tulip]

im not playing ts, an ant does like 2 damage of touching they

[fluid scarab]

Does the final phase of lost lace have alot of health

[astral locust]

no way my goat ||garmond|| got voided 🥀🥀

[wild latch]

Can we get the return white flower quest from Hollow knight but you have to fight a beastfly in every room

[solemn juniper]

No.

[umbral pivot]

top 5 sad

[prime tundra]

I'm going to be a bit dishonorable when I fight groal and use save quits and fractured mask for groal

[eager widget]

pathetic men though>>>>>>>

[foggy tapir]

i have like 110+ hours on my hollow knight save, yet i have not beaten p5

[tawny palm]

i love him shut up

[serene arrow]

No mo you don’t get it fuck SPECIFICALLY the caretaker and no one else he specifically sucks

[hollow galleon]

Are you a masochist 😭

[tawny palm]

styx made sure hornet is an adult before he started simping

[foggy tapir]

yo is styx the huntress?

[unkempt pine]

wait not styx i love that dude

[vagrant python]

Truth nuke actually
Hornet has 10x more movement than the knight
use it and you'll never get hit
People forget you can use harpoon to pull yourself into enemies

[next walrus]

Anyone else hate hate hate the bird enemies with the 3 daggers?

[candid arch]

no

[fleet glen]

Act 26 of Silksong introduces Lost Radiance where you team up with Shakra to fight LR

Making a Cameo is Zote who is riding on Zaza, who then proceeds to tear Radiance to shreds

Radiance then gets reformed into multiple Stars

You, Zote, Zaza, Shakra, and surprise surprise Guests, Sherma and Mila, must team up to defeat the Solar System

[umbral pivot]

meanwhile grindle, nuu and spa guy

[wild latch]

[fluid scarab]

All of the final phases of the bosses in this game are boring in my opinion

[eager widget]

bro hes my boy wife dont talk to me like that

[foggy tapir]

they speak and look similar

[ashen drift]

just go into the parasite soup on the bottom corners and spam tools and/or jump, hit, go back

[near tulip]

styx its just the oppo of him sibling, so cool

[jaunty robin]

Path of pain version of Silksong

Hell no.

[candid arch]

2 complete different people

[vast belfry]

Crazy!

[umbral pivot]

hell yeah

[foggy tapir]

FUCK WIDOW PHASE 2 FUCK WIDOW PHASE 2-

[vagrant python]

It would be beautiful.

[grim bluff]

this is true, styx is less creepy than every single lace shipper

[fleet glen]

I beat Willow first try smh

[unkempt pine]

this game parkour feels like im doing path of pain after double jump

[tawny palm]

grindle wanted to steal he isn't interested in hornet herself

[near tulip]

fym beautiful.

[solemn juniper]

Also you can heal three masks, and can heal in the air.

I think a lot of people relied on spells too.

[prime tundra]

I would but it takes too much time I would rather toss my honor aside for one fight, he's playing dirty with the water so I will too. also I've been hit in the corners before

[candid arch]

perhaps a distant cousin or brother/sister??

[solemn juniper]

Hornet slap speedrun

[nocturne beacon]

Going down. (A3)

[ashen drift]

its not that bad just get gud

[hollow galleon]

Type of guy to do path of pain withiut the honey charm

[foggy tapir]

did i beat nkg before the radiance? yes
do i struggle with sister splinter? also yes!

[umbral pivot]

what’s yalls top 3
i got first sinner, karmelita and either trobbio 2 or cogwork dancers i cant decide

[jaunty robin]

I hope they make a pale hornet character customization mod

[near tulip]

git gud!

[fluid scarab]

Nail is to small in this game

[vagrant python]

IT WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL
PATH OF PAIN SILKSONG WOULD BE OUTRIGHT BEAUTIFUL
IT WOULD PARLEL CELESTE C SIDE LEVELS

[umbral pivot]

it’s funny if anything

[prime tundra]

for a second in that cutscene a mouse cursor appears btw

[half valve]

7tomatos on yo head is crazy ngl

[restive rivet]

Just act 3 exclusive content and I'm done

[ashen drift]

"nail is to small"

[fleet glen]

Only fight I really used Grapple as an Attack was Lost Lace

[unkempt pine]

7 tomatos bruh they hate u

[solemn juniper]

Widow, first sinner, and karmelita or Trobbio 2

[umbral pivot]

wowzers

[tawny palm]

do we agree that this shit is terrifying

[ashen drift]

7?? goddamn

[foggy tapir]

trobbio 1 and cogwork dancers, one of the best bosses in my opinion

[jaunty robin]

Steel soul mode tho with no dream sequence currently

[unkempt pine]

it looks cute

[umbral pivot]

we think alike

[half valve]

U FORGOT ABOUT MY ACT 4 I MADE TODAY Act 4 The Loom Beyond
after being carried back to the surface hornet begins to sense threads tugging at her threads not of silk but of memory and fate a hidden realm the Loom Beyond reveals itself a space where all silks spun and severed throughout Pharloom gather It’s half dreamscape half machine woven from every struggle hornet has endured
The balance restored in act 3 is fragile Though lace is freed the voids whisper persists leaking into the Loom Beyond This realm holds Pharloom’s secret origin it was never just a kingdom but a loomprison meant to contain something older than the Radiance or Void

[nocturne beacon]

huh what what what what (A3)

[astral locust]

||HE DOESNT DIE LETS GOOOO||

[eager widget]

these and the ones on ||the abyss||

[last plover]

Farfield fire spitter 🥀

[wild latch]

[umbral pivot]

tuff

[ashen drift]

what i dont get it

[candid arch]

yes he does

[restive rivet]

Idk what blud is on about but I am NOT doing anymore acts 😭

[near tulip]

THE UGLIST THING IN THIS GAME

[unkempt pine]

thats cupcake he dont bite

[fleet glen]

Fair enough, we don’t have 9 Masks and U.Strength by the time we fight SS and Willow

[vagrant python]

Yeah idrc about steel soul
Its a challenge and its meant to be i get that
But it doesnt benefit me to do it
I did it in hk after 80 hours

[half valve]

I made 4 5 6 and 7

[astral locust]

Yeah I spoke too early...

[nocturne beacon]

it's literally the one from HK

[tawny palm]

he doesn't bite he sends you to hell (despite already being in hell that is the ducts)

[near tulip]

uh

[umbral pivot]

³

[ashen drift]

oh thats what you meant, yeah it is lol

[foggy tapir]

i think i beat the monarch before i had like 2 or 3 extra mask lol

[last plover]

U guys on act 18728329

[solemn juniper]

The worst enemies are those ugly, fat, lame, dumb dr*lls

[foggy tapir]

i wouldnt say cutest but it does look like it just needs a dog treat

[ashen drift]

beat it with 1 nail upgrade, no extra masks

[unkempt pine]

nah he would never hurt a fly

[chrome fable]

Who else never uses charged attacks

[umbral pivot]

the geometric ones?

[near tulip]

the fat one are the worst

[real pewter]

bro fuck the chapel of the reaper

[ashen drift]

me i dont really use tools either

[foggy tapir]

sigh and let me guess barbed bracelet?

[vagrant python]

I didnt even use nail arts in hk
Theyre good but theyre like
Very niche uses

[solemn juniper]

If they were a real species I would advocate to make them go extinct.

[unkempt pine]

Ok how about u beat it without needle and get the worst available tool

[real pewter]

bro fuck the chapel of the reaper the fricking tall dude is impossible to kill

[oblique quarry]

FINALLY

[ashen drift]

why its pretty easy and the crest is amazing

[tawny palm]

i hate these guys not because theyre hard or because they throw double damage explosives

i hate them because they're immune to their explosions so its useless to bounce them off

[chrome fable]

Real
All I use is the little flying robots

[solemn juniper]

Comchflies.

[mossy sage]

yeah ts pmo

[unkempt pine]

dang i forgot what they looked like

[ashen drift]

beat it first try with 10000bpm at the end

[umbral pivot]

oh

[restive rivet]

If poison cogflies weren't so damn OP I wouldn't use tools, they just make it harder to read the screen

[real pewter]

the trials the tall dude alwys kills me idk how to kill them

[oblique quarry]

same here, i spammed cogflies just to get rid of enemies

[near tulip]

you cannot even dodge these fatass enemies like ts

[foggy tapir]

i meant that as in i just progressed too fast, mr slavery supporter

[chrome fable]

Me neither

Plus I fail them very often

[wild latch]

My man got that tunnel vision

[fast geode]

the jump button:

[near tulip]

it depends

[unkempt pine]

slavery? dude this is the back bone of this economy

[chrome fable]

Pogo → ass slap → 🔁

[umbral pivot]

then a quick 30 second unstoppable ad break 3 fucking times full of stupid annoying enemies

[restive rivet]

How are so many people forgetting that jumping can avoid enemies???

[solemn juniper]

This guy was one of the few bosses I used tools on.

[foggy tapir]

sir please stop staring at me while holding a very small sun

[tropic apex]

that was the hardest boss from my bc challenge rn

[void canopy]

heathen on speedrunning.com said autosplitter and yet, no autosplits

[ashen drift]

mb wrong message lmao

[vagrant python]

How do I get them?

[near tulip]

lol

[near tulip]

br, tmj

[foggy tapir]

are they paid fairly? no.
are they supported fairly? no.
do they deserve this? no.

[vagrant python]

WHERE ARE PEOPLE FINDING THIS BOSS

[unkempt pine]

the workers just rested and confessed their sins they’re ready for 2 shifts without supper

[foggy tapir]

ANNNNNNNNNTUUBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chrome fable]

Erm it's up in the citadel
You will need craft metal

You will know where it is.

[near tulip]

greymoor

[unkempt pine]

Do they complain? Also no

[vagrant python]

Oh i think ive found it then tbh
I just need to find more craft metal

[foggy tapir]

at the bottom of greymoor i think

[ashen drift]

ah lai lai lai, ushkado

[mossy sage]

every time one of these spawns directly under me down to the exact atom i get 1 nickel

[wild latch]

Bro turned emo

[fast geode]

*points gun at head "see? they dont even complain!"

[chrome fable]

Bro is playing HK thread music 🥀

[void canopy]

I don't even mean to be that guy, but have you played the game? Moorwing is literally one of the quintessential bosses in the game and fairly early game too. Just play and explore around man, it's a metroidvania don't spoil the exploration

[near tulip]

not emo, corpse i guess

[grim bluff]

so what you're saying is, Pharloom is an allegory for 'murrica

[chrome fable]

You didn't have to do it
That's just vilainy

[fast geode]

hornet and her desert eagle

[near tulip]

LOL

[vagrant python]

Ive finished the act 2 boss
I literally have not seen that boss 😭

[unkempt pine]

Sir our hard working workers wouldn’t need to be threatened they already know they’re the back bone of this economy and they’re here to support us

[fast geode]

"say hello to my little friend"

[foggy tapir]

we need a version of this but with silkshot

[cyan sage]

My pogo tier list (wanderer more personal)

[void canopy]

[tropic apex]

what about the rosary cannon

[worn canyon]

Have you… not found greymoor?

[vagrant python]

[fast geode]

[restive rivet]

Disgusting (imo)

[oblique quarry]

wanderer pogo is S

[worn canyon]

Or bellhart?

[vagrant python]

No dude ive literally finished everything in grey more 😭

[nocturne beacon]

||Hmm yess this void looks like void|| -Hornet probably (A3)
