POSHANKA

[quartz falcon]

I already found it, but I can't explore it because it's blocked, so I need the wanderflies but I didn't kill them

[timid rock]

Spongebob is bing? I thought bing was next hollow knight? Something to do with pablo??

[vestal lagoon]

so i need a hand right, im making a pelican spider OC in service to the citadel, i need asistance for their name and if they would be feral or sentient

[royal ermine]

POSHANKA

[nimble peak]

use longclaw broo

[still elm]

Does multibinder do anything on this crest?

[royal ermine]

IT'S STILL TOO SHORT

[tulip cedar]

just slap a longclaw on 🥀

[pearl dagger]

no way that part is beatable right 😭 holy shit

[timid haven]

Lets go! First try on last judge on my second hunter only playthorugh

[jolly quail]

Idk

[weary gorge]

What a way to go

[timid haven]

Amazing boss. Wonderful flow.

[tiny ferry]

hollow knight 3(D) battle royale

[nimble peak]

its close to hunters range

[flat remnant]

sentient, call them pelly or gilford

[tulip patio]

it is bruh

[ebon bone]

high halls gauntlet is harder than most bosses fr

[jolly quail]

[little aspen]

who thought it was a good idea to have every single npc and enemy in one singular spritesheet

[coarse leaf]

Bing doesn't exist. It was just a word fed to the AI and the AI decided to treat the word Bing as if it was a person.

[carmine yoke]

LOCK IN

[weary gorge]

Hollow Knight Tactics

[timid rock]

Truly a hero

[nimble peak]

these spritesheets are a mess

[jolly quail]

https://tenor.com/view/limbus-company-true-truth-dagger-ego-project-moon-gif-4751289993706807371

[little aspen]

AND ON ANOTHER NOTE WHAT IS THAT

[ebon bone]

High halls gauntlet is actually insane

[hexed nexus]

I beat it first try in steel soul

[sharp sinew]

rocking hunter's crest because I spent the first half of act 1 learning how to downpogo and im not about to leave that sunk cost of time behind

[coarse leaf]

Who the hell is Bing? The first reaction is always this.

[carmine yoke]

Anyways, I'm outta here, goodbye chat

[vestal lagoon]

thank you for your asistance

[tiny ferry]

purple marker

[royal ermine]

Witch Crest is a better Hk1-like moveset WITH better slots imo

[weary gorge]

I actually would fuck with a Hollow Knight Tactics game lol

[timid rock]

So what does this have to do with pablo

[keen kiln]

@tawdry valley have you heard of this silksongwiki dot com project? It seems cool but

[trail spoke]

brain worm...

[hexed nexus]

Saves lag I guess

[pearl dagger]

how 😭 took me like 3 minutes to simply get there

[jade gale]

got 100% sub 30hrs in steel soul on cam can i get a gg 🥹

[glacial idol]

This is the Hunter’s Journal

[sharp sinew]

just come back later

[ebon bone]

Witch crest would be perfect if the vine attack was a bonus like reaper instead of the way of healing

[hexed nexus]

Because Ive 100% hollow knight and got 1 more achievement for silksong

[royal ermine]

FR
plus its not bad 🤷‍♂️

[tulip cedar]

bro didnt get sub 10 minutes 🥀

[tulip patio]

so i got the ||surface memento||

[keen kiln]

the fuck is it talking about. this doesn't seem like it belongs on a wiki, this feels like an AI generated back of the box synopsis???

[flat remnant]

ggs

[tiny ferry]

No

[coarse leaf]

It actually has nothing to do with Pablo who happens to be Jack Skellington's lost son from Hollow Knight.

[ebon bone]

because god forbid you try to do that against a fast enemy

[nimble peak]

too op man too op

[keen kiln]

not really even worth spoiler tagging the fuck is it talking about????

[little aspen]

dear god

[pearl dagger]

yea i havent played hk, i just jumped straight into silksong, ima play hk after tho

[jade gale]

game sub 10m is hard ig

[ebon bone]

yeah i know but why is the heal so weird

[marsh jacinth]

just getting it outta me:

DUCK DUCK GODS DAMNIT!

wasn't paying attention on my 100% ss run and died to widow after losing safety mask, rip 3.5 hours save cause i zoned out

[sharp sinew]

against the WHAT

[nimble peak]

"a kingdom of silk and song"
🔥 ✍️

[hexed nexus]

Youve commited sins

[long umbra]

ngl, i still dont think it would be

[real pewter]

i got thread storm and beat widow now what blasted steps or bile water

[jade gale]

tyty

[flat remnant]

the way they use em-dashes and semicolons this is straight up ai

[ebon bone]

is it necesary?

[jade gale]

[marsh jacinth]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-hitting-head-on-desk-cat-insane-cat-gif-24842238

[timid rock]

Holy ai slop bro. Radiance mention is peak hallucination

[ebon bone]

save bilewater until you get double jump

[keen kiln]

you don't have to look at that. what does this mean

[coarse leaf]

Pablo Picasso!

[real pewter]

alright so blasted steps

[light dust]

Is anyone here good at speedrunning ?i’m trying the new route with bells/last judge and the crow skip for the greymoore bell is actually rediculous i just cant do it. Any tips?

[royal ermine]

My favourite crests have to be Hunter, Witch and Architect rn

[nimble peak]

if they did that they would have to gut down the damage A LOT cuz if its a passive thing like reapers ur legit dealing more than thread storm dmg for free while healing too

[timid rock]

He has risen.

[real pewter]

its so annoying tho i alr did a bit and the area sucks

[keen kiln]

"believed to be more than a cultural phenomenon"?????

[daring needle]

F bile water

[tulip patio]

fr

[keen kiln]

i'd join the speedrunning discord if i were you

[ebon bone]

sinners road is an alternative

[royal ermine]

I just love that Witch's charge attack is the spin slash

[jolly quail]

So much determination he willed himself into existence

[flat remnant]

they're referencing the mass fandom psychosis from the last six years as if it were a part of the game LMAO

[light dust]

Do you know where i can do that?

[ebon bone]

if you wanna do that, but keep in mind is also quite hard

[hexed nexus]

So true. Not that bad of an area tho once your used to it

[ebon bone]

Bilewater is bearable with wreath of purity

without it though, pure ass

[hexed nexus]

People use wreath?

[sharp sinew]

eh, the em dashes aren't it (authors keep getting caught in the crossfire with those), but rather

This "Silksong" is believed to be more than a cultural phenomenon
that really ticks the "yeah the ai has no idea what it's talking about and is guessing" box

[little aspen]

i have 50 hours on my save file and 66 hours on the game what the fuck was i DOING FOR THOSE 16 HOURS

[timid rock]

Dark souls players have been to a thousand bilewaters in their lifetimes

[light dust]

Hot take i genuinely like bilewater

[ebon bone]

Wreath saved my ass against groal

[tulip patio]

i mean i use acendants grip cause im bad at platforming

[sharp sinew]

oh wait someone else already ss'd that

[hexed nexus]

Same bro. But im good at platforming

[ebon bone]

Bilewater is unironically well designed

[nimble peak]

i have 340 hours in game and around 40 in my save file lmao

[jolly quail]

Guys which silksong characters would have the freedom motif?

[little aspen]

what the actual fuck

[nimble peak]

lost lace

[ebon bone]

it is well designed at being an absolute ass of an area, it is intended

[wind compass]

loading in

[royal ermine]

Ascendants grip i think is mandatory for Bilewater, too much shit you can slide down into

[jolly quail]

Besides that I haven’t reached them

[marsh jacinth]

did learn though that pollup pouch is a DPS LOSS on flintslate though and that early deep dock simple key door is literally just flintslate and a craftmetal as everything else is locked off behind the needle-dash gate

[long umbra]

wait its as strong as thread storm?

[timid rock]

Just jump

[hexed nexus]

68 hours on my main save, 22 on my steel soul save. 138 hours or some shit. Makes no sense

[wind compass]

wait how the fuck

[nimble peak]

xbox is a buggy mess i think it counted even if im off game

[tulip patio]

cogwork core ost goes hard

[ebon bone]

Team cherry purposely made bilewater (and groal) pure ass

[nimble peak]

its STRONGER without shaman and that one tool

[jolly quail]

Silksong players when you can’t avoid the endless sea of maggots and ranged enemy’s by jumping

[gray gazelle]

Bilewater was peak

[ebon bone]

because lets be honest, groal being so ass is unironically what makes it memorable

[nimble peak]

i one shotted npcs that i couldnt kill with thread storm

[long umbra]

thread storm does like 600% nail damage how tf

[tulip patio]

beat groal by chilling in the water

[sharp sinew]

the runback with those green guys that toss darts at you

[humble ridge]

looking at the map and inventory probably doesn't count

[long umbra]

wait you do mean extended thread storm right?

[keen kiln]

it's pinned in #speedrunning

[ebon bone]

thread storm is the best silk skill ngl

[marsh jacinth]

Bilewater is just blighttown 0.5, it's really not the bad and feels great for the asetetic

[jolly quail]

This is the guy here who has 340 hours

[royal ermine]

mind looking at the enemies and the spikes above me, i'd like a moment to think thanks

[wind compass]

As the queen of Pharloom, I sentence Groal to public execution

[ebon bone]

most others are either too niche or impractical

[hexed nexus]

I didnt have a map until act 3 in my steel soul save

[keen kiln]

oh god you're right. who the fuck is in charge of this project????

[trail spoke]

go my weaverlings

[ebon bone]

looking at you rune rage

[long umbra]

most damage least versatility, as all things should be

[nimble peak]

nah cuz ur not evne gonna hit extended thread storm most of the time
it probably deals like 7/10 dmg of extended version though

[jolly quail]

What is this? Some sort of project moon?

[tulip patio]

did u get the quill yet

[marsh jacinth]

Rune Rage probably is the WORST silk-skill ever

[hexed nexus]

I got trobbios quill

[timid rock]

Hold the jump button to gain more vertical height

[tulip patio]

alr cool

[nimble peak]

the first silk skill ever is the worst one bruh it deals doodoo damage

[ebon bone]

its cool AF but so fucking impractical

[trail spoke]

????? hello??? when was she here?? I dont think i ever saw her in SS

[wind compass]

Cross Stitch and Thread Storm are on top

[coarse leaf]

Does anyone here like Dying Light The Beast?

[keen kiln]

https://silksongwiki.com/world/ it's silksongwiki dot com. people are gonna be finding this and thinking it's a reliable source, wtf is this ai generated shit

[rustic gulch]

did i unlock the infinite money glitch or something? the courier missions can be repeated indefinitely?

[flat remnant]

can we all agree ||grindle should've died instead of garmond||

[humble ridge]

red memory

[hexed nexus]

Its so nice seeing every secret fill up instantly in the map

[ebon bone]

I don't use cross stich but i def see why its good

[nimble peak]

the flashbacks in the shaman area bro

[keen kiln]

they sure can, but you know you can also farm enemies if you're gonna do the same thing over and over

[tulip patio]

yes

[hexed nexus]

Yes 100%

[timid rock]

Did u not beat the game?

[long umbra]

3 nail hits on a big piercing move is weak?

[sharp sinew]

in ||act 3||

[coarse leaf]

If you're a Dying Light fan, I want to talk

[jolly quail]

Is this the silksong files cause why is the hive there

[tulip patio]

||red memory act 3||

[nimble peak]

weaker than the other ones yeah

[marsh jacinth]

it legit does 3X base needle damage, like it's 3 hits in one near instantly.....it's DPS is stronger than threadstorm even if threadstorm does more overall due to speed of useage

[trail spoke]

i got all achievements but it seems it just slipped out of my mind 😭

[ebon bone]

silkspear isn't weak but there is like 3 other moves which do similar things

[sharp sinew]

I played it back on the xbox growing up, never played the sequel though

[flat remnant]

they can't unfortunately it's just the bonebottom one has like 5

[chrome zenith]

I kinda wondered if there should have been more going for him or if he's just meant to be an unlikeable guy like Zote (except he doesn't have Zote's comic relief energy)

[ebon bone]

Clawline for example

[trail spoke]

ya

[hexed nexus]

Ive got one more left… Im going insane

[rustic gulch]

ahhh okay, so i should save some for later rather then ddo them all now huh

[jolly quail]

Hive dlc in silksong?!?!?

[nimble peak]

the move still isnt that fast either i can fit 3 wanderer slashes in that windup

[long umbra]

do any of them other than thread storm outdamage it though?

[coarse leaf]

I love the first Dying Light, Dying Light The Beast is the best of the series currently.

[hexed nexus]

Nope

[marsh jacinth]

LMFAO get Dyno'ed

[ebon bone]

i didn't use silkspear much because clawline usually did the job

[jolly quail]

https://tenor.com/view/yakuza-gif-18148683

[flat remnant]

he's like zote if zote tried to sexually harrass the knight and scammed it out of geo

[sharp sinew]

hours spent dropkicking zombies ❤️

[hexed nexus]

You used abilities?

[rustic gulch]

excluding jade was a big W

[coarse leaf]

Dying Light The Beast is awesome, incredibly brutal

[chrome zenith]

Ooof

[pearl dagger]

okay so its def easier to get back here but the challange is actually beating them

[timid rock]

Zote is so hot

[nimble peak]

dmg isnt everything.

[ebon bone]

i swear for the people who don't use clawline what are you on

[royal ermine]

yes thank you for this information i learned years ago from playing the first game

I use the tools to make things convenient and easier on myself
bruh

[chrome zenith]

Also I kinda thought freeing him or leaving him in the Marrow prison would make some difference later on

[tulip patio]

use the tacks from benjin and crull for one

[ebon bone]

that shit is so good in combat

[flat remnant]

2 masks and a dream

[chrome zenith]

But it just seems his later encounters stay the same regardless

[nimble peak]

wheres the aiming part wheres the iframes WHERES THE TECHS

[pearl dagger]

dont think i have that

[ebon bone]

such a good approach tool

[coarse leaf]

I love the new beast mode, the gore is even more brutal than ever in this one. Techland really delivered with Dying Light The Beast.

I GOT ASCENDANTS GRIP

[flat remnant]

yeah i really was hoping for that like maybe you'd find him dead in the slab or something

[jolly quail]

https://tenor.com/view/jo-jo-echoes-intense-gif-14180409

[ebon bone]

also ascendants grip is kinda underrated

[tulip patio]

darn
uhh you get it in sinners road after a wish

[marsh jacinth]

you can't get wanderer till after cling-grip though (afaik) which is roughly 40-50% through A1...so till then it's pretty boss and the range is great for annoying flying bugs

[humble ridge]

I beat them on my first try I just stayed in the air and pogo them

[long umbra]

i mean yeah i'd rather use most other silk skills, but you said it deals doodoo damage

[ebon bone]

quite useful

[turbid pasture]

guys i just need to kill groal the great for silk and soul and i’ve gotten no where close to beating it

[sour yew]

we all cracking groal

[coarse leaf]

s-h-i-t!!!

[marsh jacinth]

plus it pierces

[ebon bone]

classic Groal

[nimble peak]

it deals doodoo damage for me cuz i can legit fit 2-3 wanderer slashes in that windup anyways so its literally useless

[hexed nexus]

My bf agrees with your username, well display name

[chrome zenith]

Yeah in my first playthrough, the last time I saw him was in the Marrow and I thought leaving him behind resulted in him being in the Slab as well

[jolly quail]

It kinda is I saw some dude js beat a boss with beast crease and just tanking the shit out of everything

[trail spoke]

its kinda funny that in the files they call it "Whip" Instead of Witch. Hornet just whips people

[nimble peak]

im not losing any dmg whatsoever if i dont use the move at all and just keep slashing

[split jetty]

Question, I beat Last Judge yesterday and found it incredibly easy, did everyone else think it was kind of underwhelming for the final boss of act 1?

[turbid pasture]

i need tips with it

[flat remnant]

the trick ironically is staying in the muck in the middle, half his attacks don't hit and it becomes much easier to hit his ass

[coarse leaf]

Kyle grows a lot as a person in Dying Light: The Beast, he's still an emotional man, but now he's fixated on revenge, it's a completely different Kyle from what we saw in Dying Light 1. His reason for wanting vengeance is completely justified. He was tortured for 13 years.

[ebon bone]

There is a secret bench that makes the runback 10 times better

[turbid pasture]

on really?

[hexed nexus]

I think it was nerfed. But in my opinion. Every boss in this game is easy (I have experience)

[flat remnant]

i thought it was a tough but fair challenge so you just got gud

[marsh jacinth]

sigh anyways i'ma go play the objectivly better game, Megabonk (this is satire)

[jolly quail]

Hornet should whip me 🤤

[timid rock]

What are you talking about? I genuinely have no idea what you are talking about? We were talking about jumping and how that helps you platform in the game and then I gave you the really good tip on how you can hold thr jump button to extend your jump so you can more effectively use the jump button

[turbid pasture]

no i have that bench

[trail spoke]

okay dude

[flat remnant]

on everyone's soul yeah

[rich pagoda]

I got to Silksong only yesterday and first impressions: Very fun. The movement feels a lot like Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment.

[long umbra]

on one hand, true. but also, wanderer diff + lot more range + pierce

[sour yew]

you know whats up

[serene arrow]

The last judge is the scariest boss I’ve ever fought on steel soul oh my god leave me ALONE PLEASE I DONT WANNA DIE 😭

[rustic gulch]

yeah ive played about an hour of it so far, i just hated jade so much in dyling light 1 im glad i havent seen her yet

[ebon bone]

i struggled with last judge but mainly its because i forgot about magma bell

[jolly quail]

Exactly

[turbid pasture]

what about the annoying ass enemies

[rich pagoda]

I have identical keybinds between Shovel Knight and HK and Silksong so... Uh? Yeah, feels similar.

[ebon bone]

usually hug a corner

[marsh jacinth]

save and quit after safety mask breaks is BAE

[nimble peak]

ok but wanderer + longclaw + palenails

[timid rock]

What about the annoying ass enemies

[hexed nexus]

It was scary my first time. Just get fractured mask. If it breaks use that as your warning to benchwarp

[ebon bone]

the dart guys can't hit you there

[coarse leaf]

Did you know Kyle was tortured for 13 years after the events of DL1 and The Following expansion? The guy has went through the absolute worst and he's still alive. He became an awesome protagonist based on that alone.

[nimble peak]

@long umbra

[flat remnant]

you can taunt the closest fly, pogo him and climb the left wall to skip a section of the runback

[nimble peak]

no range issue + more passive dmg

[tiny ferry]

thats so.. menacing

[long umbra]

why even do steel soul then

[split jetty]

I only got it in the first place because one of my friends said that I'd need it

[ebon bone]

with mask and magma bell its not too hard, also, the fight pacing is a bit different from most

[timid rock]

Achievement

[nimble peak]

achievement 😔

[hexed nexus]

Because we want too. We arent risking hours

[trail spoke]

she looks really goofy in this sprite

[jolly quail]

Watch jojo gng its peak

[coarse leaf]

The characters in The Beast are far more interesting. The story is an upgrade over the first two games, Techland cooked with this one

[ebon bone]

Last judge makes you play more defensively

[clear wing]

A

[turbid pasture]

what if i stay in the bottom corner and just used weave light and wispfire lantern

[timid rock]

Read jojolands gang its peak

[tiny ferry]

i have im waiting for part 7

[rustic gulch]

other than benches, maps, and elevators, what should i spend my beads on, they are burning a hole in my pocket

[long umbra]

then dont do it?

[split jetty]

I felt like it was slower and easier to predict the attacks than it was with other bosses

[ebon bone]

also if you don't have it maybe you can get wreath of purity

[hexed nexus]

But Ive done it? Lmao

[timid rock]

Save and invest

[tiny ferry]

omg i forgot jojolands existed i stopped reading it after chapter 11 or something😭

[nimble peak]

wanderer crest legit has autoparries in almost all of the bossfights best example being widow lmaoo

[jolly quail]

Idk where to read it dude💔

[timid rock]

Its peak

[marsh jacinth]

because it's fun and keeps you on your toes, resetting the fight is punishing enough and it forces me to play smart instead of just throwing myself into the enemies and using the i-frames to try to bully them before they bully me dead

[long umbra]

but whats the point of doing it

[turbid pasture]

if i’m gonna be staying in waters, than that’s a no no

[ebon bone]

the thing is that last judge is slow, but it hits hard and from a pretty big area

[turbid pasture]

and i have it

[timid rock]

Mangadex

[nimble peak]

https://medal.tv/tr/games/hollow-knight-silksong/clips/lbmThDUh0zTVDyCa7?invite=cr-MSxvVUwsMTQ2NDM4OTYy&v=30

they need to change the parry timings a little

[ebon bone]

but it lacks a true ranged attack, so just play it slow and keep your ground

[long umbra]

i feel like you could get this from speedruns too though

[jolly quail]

Manga def doesn’t have it it only went up to jojolion for me

[nimble peak]

i shouldnt be able to just mash square and negate every damage

[turbid pasture]

i easily beat lace with wanderers crest btw

[ebon bone]

also last judge punishes you heavly for trying to rush it, its meant to be played as an endurance test

[hexed nexus]

Its fun. Stressful.

[marsh jacinth]

you can take intentional deaths though in speedruns to save time in some places

[turbid pasture]

like my fourth attempt

[royal ermine]

I was talking before about the tools' in question utility in Bilewater
cause otherwise it is a much more challenging experience
ascendants grip makes that climb with all the spitting dragon mfs a helluva lot more bearable

as the wreath of purity gives you some free mistakes if you fall into the poop water

I already know about holding jump to get more height at this point in the game,,,

[nimble peak]

which one

[turbid pasture]

second fight

[rich pagoda]

I feel like a funny person because my entire fighting style through HK was a defensive one and that's helping me clown all over Silksong because the game very much supports this.

[ebon bone]

not really

[long umbra]

okay my b, didnt phrase well, whats the point of doing it *if youre allowing quit outs

[ebon bone]

Fight like widow and first sinner def punish you for playing defense

[turbid pasture]

and honestly i beat ||grandmother silk|| easily too

[marsh jacinth]

because it's fun what do you not get about that?

[long umbra]

huh

[timid rock]

Well it got removed cus of copyright but when i checked the other day it was back on there so idk lol. If not just search up which sites are worth using right now on reddit

[pearl obsidian]

How long is act 3 compared to the other two?

[tulip cedar]

prolly just to get the achievement without the stress

[ebon bone]

it forces you into playing aggresive, otherwise you get overwhelmed

[hexed nexus]

Achievement? Fun? And its benchwarping not whatever the hell you called it

[timid rock]

45 hours

[sick lynx]

Spoilers for SS, but I swear this game is actually rage bait

[jolly quail]

Have you ever read jojolands… with your life on the line!?!

[turbid pasture]

hear me out: putrified ducts is worse

[pearl obsidian]

Uh what?

[royal ermine]

Silksong is definitely the bloodborne here
enemies are a lot more aggressive and some bosses won't let you turtle methinks

[ebon bone]

putrified ducts is too short to be worse

[marsh jacinth]

ALSOOOOOO, there is actually more content in SS than normal mode, not a LOT more but still there is more

[timid rock]

Dark mango psychology

[split jetty]

Silkspear oneshots enemies and it also helps to destroy the vines

[ebon bone]

HOWEVER

[rich pagoda]

I dunno if defensive is the right term. It's more evasive? I play a game of call and response.

[hexed nexus]

Is that an actual thing that I missed?

[rich pagoda]

I am very floaty.

[ebon bone]

that mosquito enemy can rot in hell, its genuinely the most insuferrable thing i've experienced

[nimble peak]

using threadstorm for this fight makes it 90395x times easier

[hexed nexus]

And an easy as fuck boss lmao

[tulip cedar]

playing like groal 💔

[timid rock]

Dont inhale so much helium and youll be fine

[marsh jacinth]

don't be hating on moss mother like that!

[turbid pasture]

so if i stay in the bottom corner with weavelight and wispfire lantern, would that be good?

[sick lynx]

Does that take the whole spool of silk?

[ebon bone]

that shit makes primal aspid look like kids play

[timid rock]

45 hours

[nimble peak]

yes

[turbid pasture]

no

[clear wing]

Yes

[split jetty]

Half

[sick lynx]

Don’t know what that is lol- I’m barely into the game

[marsh jacinth]

she just wants to help er mossling grow up to be big floofy fleas, with spikes!

[hexed nexus]

Im not talking about moss mother. I think you are hating on moss mother here. Im talking about the steel soul exlcusive boss. I never said she was easy. (Even though she is)

[molten iron]

No hit ||phantom|| i am shaking so much rn (also only the end of the fight cuz swich only tales 30 second clips)

[jolly quail]

So glad groal is such a agreed upon ass boss dude I don’t think I’ve seen a single groal fan ♥️

[split jetty]

It's in greymoor, to the right

[marsh jacinth]

to be fair i've only heard about it i've not fought it yet

[nimble peak]

u might get spoiled in this channel so yea
also its a silk skill

[rich pagoda]

My strategies will kill the boss... eventually. They might die of old age first. But I won't be dying because I'm a persistence hunter.

[sick lynx]

Also is anyone willing to help me out with understanding this game in dms so I don’t get spoiled

[timid rock]

Use silkspear DO NOT GET THREADSTORM ITS A TRICK

[turbid pasture]

silkskills only cost 4 silk (without the egg)

[sick lynx]

I know I’m trying my best not to read anything but reply’s 💔💔

[broken oracle]

|| Should I get the witches crest or does that have consequences ||

[hexed nexus]

Oh it has all the void moves and a singular dash. It floats. Really boring and easy fight

[trail spoke]

why does she do this

[turbid pasture]

get it

[tulip cedar]

hornet gets kidnapped and sent to pharloom btw

[turbid pasture]

hornet drill

[humble ridge]

it's a red tool

[nimble peak]

yea na theres nothing stopping ppl from flashing the true ending cutscene right on ur face for no reason

[ebon bone]

witch crest is really good but it also makes you play in a specific way

[jolly quail]

Copying Grimm ahh

[hexed nexus]

No consequences besides ifk

[nimble peak]

yes but u can remove the consequences

[broken oracle]

U can switch out right and it doesn’t stop u from using era right

[sick lynx]

LMAO YOU SCARED ME ACTUALLY SO BAD MY HEART DROPPED A LITTLE BEFORE I REALIZED

[marsh jacinth]

hmmmm, i'm sure there's a reason behind it, idk, tired and stressed, gonna go for now

[timid rock]

You need to beat gms while corrupted otherwise u miss an ending if u get it turned into witch crest before that then u miss out

[clear wing]

I mean, she DOES say Grimn when she's healing sooooo

[ebon bone]

witch crest has a sort of convoluted questline so buckle up

[sick lynx]

Happened on TikTok to me lol

[hexed nexus]

If it was a hard boss in steel soul. Completely new. I wouldve died inside

[sterile nexus]

focus on killing the adds

[rich pagoda]

Yknow the HK speedrun strats for most bosses where you chase and aggressively hound your target with pokes and spells? I do basically the opposite. Dancing and floating. But I'm horribly consistent and if I've figured out how to not get hit, I'll basically never get hit.

[timid rock]

So dont get witch crest until u do that

[serene arrow]

I need to get the danger mask I have the magma bell and she’s still dribbling me like she’s LeBron bro 😭

[turbid pasture]

wanderers crest on gms made it pretty easy tbh…

[broken oracle]

U need to ? I’m trying to get to act 3 … I’ve done every single boss so far in act 2…

[nimble peak]

gms is pretty easy

[tulip cedar]

gms is a baddie but thats another story

[serene arrow]

I think I’m just gonna go through the mist instead i’d rather all those dumb wraiths than that menace 😭

[turbid pasture]

like the hollow knight

[broken oracle]

Except gms

[sick lynx]

No help in dms 💔💔 that’s okay that’s okay I’ll survive the fight no trouble

[nimble peak]

its not forced but its one of the endings

[slim thorn]

wish me luck

[ebon bone]

last judge punishes you heavly for playing aggro, you're supposed to play defensively

[clear wing]

Wish you luck

[ebon bone]

me when

[trail spoke]

the glowing womb things are in the files.. Has anyone seen them before??

[marsh jacinth]

tbcfh Seth is gonna be a huge biatch on SS to fight, I had a lot of trouble with them on normal and I was allowed to die on that mode lmfao

[hexed nexus]

Nah. Wasnt that hard of a fight

[jolly quail]

Js got ambushed by gurr on 1 hp 💔

[nimble peak]

mini knights wow

[ebon bone]

Cilantro my beloved

[turbid pasture]

can’t believe gms, the literal FINAL BOSS of the game, is easier than some random ass fly

[hexed nexus]

I think they were reusing them

[sly garden]

Act 3 spoilers

[timid rock]

No its so u get an ending. If u get the curse and turn it into witch crest before u beat the final act 2 boss while cursed u miss the opportunity to get that ending

[tulip cedar]

that one charm

[nimble peak]

primal aspid vs hollow knight ass comparison

[solid swift]

Guys help! Should I buy everything in shops before Act 3? Im missing the house upgrade and thief shop

[timid rock]

Not the final boss but ok

[humble ridge]

yes because the thief raises his price in act 3

[split jetty]

I did not follow that rule lmao

[knotty shell]

dog how the fuck do I do the liquid laquer quest 😭

[timid rock]

Fr?

[sly garden]

Run

[deep moon]

It doesn’t matter they’ll still be there

[nimble peak]

HE MAKES U PAY 800 FOR LIKE 4 ITEMS

[timid rock]

Walk and jump

[tulip cedar]

use magnentic dice and just be lucky 🥀

[clear wing]

Highly recommend you to

[neon dome]

Does anyone else get FOMO for this game?

[turbid pasture]

primal aspid sucks 😭 😭 😭

[timid rock]

Suffering from success

[solid swift]

Why?

[rich pagoda]

Yeah I had to wait until yesterday to get my hands on it

[humble ridge]

ye I had one tool left from him and it costed 700 rather than 500, he says something like "desperate times desperate customers"

[sick lynx]

Before I bought it yeah

[slim thorn]

also i forgot to clip this but if you taunt widow and dont move she wont start attacking

[long umbra]

it just doesnt rlly sound fun to me ig? like, playing through the game normally is fun, and challenge runs are fun, but if you take out the challenge, idk what you'd get out of a steel soul run that wouldn't be better in another casual playthrough or speedrun

[ebon bone]

GMS is kinda dissapointing but its understandable since its not the true final boss

[timid rock]

Supply must meet demand

[neon dome]

like there is so many things to do and its kinda overwhelming

[broken oracle]

Do I still unlock act 3?

[rich pagoda]

Oh that too is very true

[turbid pasture]

also any other tips for groal

[nimble peak]

watch gms godhome variant destroy everyone like pure vessel

[marsh jacinth]

well that's why everyone is unique, cause my idea of fun isn't the same as yours

[deep moon]

This isn’t really fomo

[broken oracle]

And do I still get to get the witches crest in act 3 or no

[slim thorn]

wdym it didnt recieve damage???

[ebon bone]

im actually waiting for a godhome dlc

[neon dome]

act 3 locks some things away

[ebon bone]

please, the bosses in this game are too good to be fought once

[long umbra]

fair enough ig

[slim thorn]

i threw a bumerang to it and still didnt take damage

[nimble peak]

everyone is
first sinner is gonna be fire

[deep moon]

Not anything needed for completion or hunters journal, just minor stuff

[ebon bone]

first sinner my beloved

[serene marsh]

everything locked away in act 3 will come back in godhome one day so its fine

[split jetty]

Guys should I use my silk Eater? My cocoon is in with the clockwork dancers or whatever they're called and I have hundreds of rosaries (but even more in the forms of rosary strings and necklaces)

[slim thorn]

lets go

[ebon bone]

I thought widow was good, but i wasn't ready for widow 2

[turbid pasture]

first sinner phase 2 was easier than phase 1 tbh…

[nimble peak]

shakra fight..

[timid rock]

Yes u can refight the boss, beat it cursed once, bind it the second time then trap it the third time for act 3. As long as u beat it cursed and get the ending ur fine. Its just missable content

[deep moon]

Not required

[neon dome]

now do it again.

[nimble peak]

you HAVE to do it bro.. its the law

[slim thorn]

4 crests should suffice for vesticrest1 right?

[timid rock]

Doesnt go towards either

[marsh jacinth]

like, you might like playing Loader in RoR2, I like playing huntress, either way were both having OUR type of fun (and in RoR2's case were both still gonna die to overloading magma worm) xD

[neon dome]

i think its 5

[rich pagoda]

Pure Vessel was easy though
I genuinely beat em Radiant 10 times in a row on a bet. Slow (minute and a half fight) but consistent.

[timid rock]

I LOVE HUNTRESS

[nimble peak]

missing the shakra fight is like walking past elderbug

[long umbra]

that is true loader is sick asf

[slim thorn]

wait i have to go back right

[nimble peak]

and not coming back even if he keeps waving his hand towards u.

[neon dome]

oh 1st one mb yea 4 is good

[brittle elbow]

that was fun

[hexed nexus]

I think its all memory lockets on hunters? Or thats something else idk i forgot

[turbid pasture]

is that act one

[tacit sentinel]

Lowest possible completion % currently known is 5% completion nmg 😭

[nimble peak]

2

[split jetty]

Haven't fought pure vessel but he lowk looks kinda easy

[ebon bone]

Also First Sinner is literaly just Pure Vessel as an midgame fight WTF

[hexed nexus]

I hate the gauntlet tbh

[timid rock]

Why would i go back to moorwing bro, i have bellways why would i go there

[turbid pasture]

wait how

[broken oracle]

So where do I find it

[hexed nexus]

Lmao. Not really but sure

[nimble peak]

pure vessel temu version

[serene arrow]

I FUCKING DIED IN SINNERS ROAD BEFORE I COULD EVEN GET TO THE MIST I LOST 6 HOURS IM GONNA KILL MYSELF 💔💔💔

[ebon bone]

midgame

[marsh jacinth]

I don't think it's possible to get below 5% tbch

[neon dome]

you do her quest after getting all her maps

[brittle elbow]

lmao real that was way too long
30 waves total?

[nimble peak]

when u do her quest and meet her master u go to greymoor and hit her chakram things then she offers a friendly duel

[hexed nexus]

31 actually

[turbid pasture]

i got the rings

[serene arrow]

I DIDNT CLOSE OUT IN TIME

[timid rock]

Ask someone else im going to sleep soz

[hidden hearth]

is verdania map a %?

[broken oracle]

Nws

[neon dome]

she's where moorwing is i think

[serene marsh]

no

[ebon bone]

For real the similarities with Pure vesel and first sinner is actually uncanny

[slim thorn]

and lowest bosses can be 4 while switching trobs with 1sin right?

[carmine yoke]

It's all 100%

[serene marsh]

no

[hexed nexus]

But yeah I hate that place

[turbid pasture]

i got the rings so it’s too late?

[lilac karma]

On act 3 where do i get the last mask shard?

[neon dome]

no

[rich pagoda]

He kinda is unless you really want to play aggressively against him which, I don't do. There's a reason I can't do Collector AB and it's that that boss is completely antithetical to my playstyle and I'm hoping Silksong doesn't have anything similar to that guy.

[timid rock]

Act 3 is the cutoff

[nimble peak]

if ur in act 3 its too late but if ur at act 2 u can do it

[outer sonnet]

what crest gives more silk per second?

[serene marsh]

wanderer

[carmine yoke]

The mask shard store

[nimble peak]

wanderer

[timid rock]

Goomaster's

[turbid pasture]

wanderer 100%

[serene marsh]

cuz u attack faster

[hexed nexus]

Hidden hunter wish. If not. Then uhh. Your screwed

[heavy magnet]

aigh, the biggest crane fly in the world just crashed into my room

[lilac karma]

What you mean?

[split jetty]

Collector was weird, but fun
I didn't really enjoy the boss fight but I liked him as a character

[timid rock]

Was it 9ft tall

[carmine yoke]

Silkster's Crest

[visual thorn]

hello how to defeat the kabob boss ?

[turbid pasture]

so where do i go for the shakra battle?

[heavy magnet]

bigger

[nimble peak]

moorwing arena

[timid rock]

Moorwing

[carmine yoke]

Nuke

[turbid pasture]

i’ve been there after getting the rings

[timid rock]

Hit the ring

[nimble peak]

and ur supposed to hit her rings

[turbid pasture]

oh ok

[brittle elbow]

it was highkey backfiring on me that i had my silk gain multiplier set to 50%

[carmine yoke]

Collect my rings

[nimble peak]

how does shakra just tp mapwide bruh she got that dawg in her

[timid rock]

Like on bellhart to summon her

[left hedge]

baby

[turbid pasture]

?

[timid rock]

Shakraman

[velvet temple]

you need to get ending 1 to get the quest to get ending 2 right

[rich pagoda]

Yeah. I'm just saying that in HK, he's the wall keeping me away from P3 AB and also further Pantheons under AB. And he's a wall to me because he forces me to entirely relearn my fighting style.

[tacit sentinel]

Trobbio isn't a %.

||The % are (in order)
Cling Grip, Needolin, Phantom (parry), Clawline, Lace2||

[timid rock]

Like how you summon her back to bellhart by hitting her rings

[turbid pasture]

yeah

[slim thorn]

i said lowest bosses

[turbid pasture]

so i hit them in the arena?

[nimble peak]

yeeees

[timid rock]

Just go do it

[turbid pasture]

also collector is an easy boss wdym???

[carmine yoke]

Which bosses are high?

[nimble peak]

??? rings in bellhart? what

[rich pagoda]

Not in Godhome, under All Bindings conditions.

[turbid pasture]

ohhhh

[timid rock]

If u need to talk to shakra you can hit her rings in bellhart to summon her to buy stuff whenever u want

[nimble peak]

collector top 2 hardest boss in the game when ur all bindings

[fallen saddle]

only have 1 save file left to 100%

[rich pagoda]

I'd rather kill Markoth All Bindings without spells, on Radiant, than do Collector AB.

[slim thorn]

i should check where im getting my info from

[tacit sentinel]

Oh I'm sorry, I haven't checked the lowest boss category. I'm guessing it's just Phantom, Trobbio, Lace2, gms, since you can skip Sister Splinter

[carmine yoke]

No Charms is easily the worst binding, not because it's hard but because it's boring

[nimble peak]

i thought that was only in the starter town forgot its name

[velvet temple]

guys do you need to kill gms and get ending 1 to get the silk soul quest and get the real ending

[carmine yoke]

Bone Bottom

[rich pagoda]

I actually have done that though and I have footage.

[timid rock]

She doesnt come back there i dont think

[neon dome]

she moves into bellhart once it's restored

[timid rock]

Fake fan

[nimble peak]

im bad at remembering names bro

[timid rock]

You dont remember shakra?? For shame

[nimble peak]

i called greymoor city of tears from temu way too many times

[slim thorn]

wait there is mossmom and maybe bellbeast? only thing i know its that you can replace trobio with 1sin doing a groal skip i helped with, seems like groal is completely skippable in 100% even

[carmine yoke]

Town of Tears 💔

[slim thorn]

and you have 2 options, from below or from above, each one using a different voltvessel tool

[timid rock]

I wanna crack moss mother

[turbid pasture]

then how do you get the soul for silk and soul

[carmine yoke]

Bro

[slim thorn]

you skip groal

[turbid pasture]

i just… go the other way?

[split crystal]

Guys why is the run back on |summoned savior| so crazy

[slim thorn]

using voltvessels one way or the other, depending on the style you want

[visual thorn]

Any barefeet boss on Hollow Knight pls ?

[serene arrow]

I hate you so much

[hexed nexus]

One more steel soul

[spiral pasture]

[empty flume]

||Hornet snapping the dude’s neck in the slab was soooo cool||

[rich pagoda]

I first tried moss mother hitless. I'm kinda clowning on the game so far. I'm not too far. But I expected to be walled by at least Lace but nope.

[brittle elbow]

damn act 3 bosses actually been hard for a while now

so much harder than granny

[carmine yoke]

This person is NOT ready for Nightmares Kings Grimms

[empty flume]

You’ll get to a point where the difficulty hits hard and fast trust me

[split crystal]

Do steel soul exclusive boss it's super fun and the run back is also fun

[turbid pasture]

since when was my grandma a boss

[turbid pasture]

what run back? replaying the whole game?

[carmine yoke]

Steel Soul Runback? 🤨

[warm saffron]

is the restoration of bellhart quest bugged rn? i have all the requirements but its not showing up on the bellhart board

[rich pagoda]

NKG? Killed on Radiant in Hollow Knight Godhome. Unless there's a different one in SS.

[tacit sentinel]

You don't have to do bell beast at any point. You can go straight to cling grip and never free bell beast

[split crystal]

Yes

[brittle elbow]

"runback" lmao

[split crystal]

Yeah if you die you have to redo the entire game supper fun run back

[leaden delta]

cool

[haughty owl]

Is Summoned Savior required for 100%?

[jolly quail]

I guess gurr the FRAUD was rlly that confident

[turbid pasture]

still better than the groal run back without the secret bench?

[carmine yoke]

It takes a tremendous amount of self-control to not shout get good

[haughty owl]

Or does Summoned Savior replace a 1% you can interchange with

[split crystal]

Good point

[turbid pasture]

ok how do i skip groal

[haughty owl]

You can’t

[cinder fox]

You don't

[brittle elbow]

the implementation for alucard afterimage seems uhhhh dubious

[serene arrow]

Widow who?

[carmine yoke]

Get the anti-Groal extermination beam summon

[real pewter]

wait can you repair your steel soul save somehow

[turbid pasture]

it cost 5 dollars (trust!)

[brittle elbow]

btw "lifeblood themed house" bugs out in act 3, don't use it
all the bells will disappear

[split crystal]

But the worst run back is most definitely bosses you've beat and are your favorite but can't fight again yet cause they haven't added a god home yet

[slim thorn]

#1421807705961795626 message wich can be done before opening shortcut and enabling it like that #1421807705961795626 message
im not beign able to find the upward skip using voltvessels in spear form to break the floor from above

[real pewter]

wait when godhome comes out how do u find your save file so you import it in i have the GOG version

[leaden delta]

I just watched summoned savior. lame ass fight

[rich pagoda]

This game is no match for the powers of just simply being a patience elemental. In HK, my Pantheon 5 run takes a whole hour to complete but I can win every time.

it should be the best crest for no hitters since it increases damage each hit and doesn't reset until you get hit but i haven't seen them use it

[sacred horizon]

I’m stuck on clover dance fight rn

is that a hard mode version of cogwork dancers?

It's the best crest for me because I like it a lot

I randomly found this item called craw summons, literally just popped next to my bench when I reloaded into the game. Tf? Is it special?

[carmine yoke]

Yeah I'd say so

[finite lava]

where do I find them in act 3?

[weary gorge]

Unpopular opinion: 2 mask contact damage is fine because contact damage is part of the attack pattern

[turbid pasture]

no… i hate craws…

is it cause of the snare

[slim thorn]

so i can just eat it because yes? cool

[sacred horizon]

Uh relatively the same

[jolly quail]

So is second sentinel somehow related to the pinstress cause they both know nail arts

[supple river]

agreed tbh

most enemies that have 2 mask contact damage are ones that actively are shoving themselves into you or communicate that well

[carmine yoke]

Elder Pilgrim spawner in a dungeon, go to like Y=12 and start mining

[split crystal]

It gives free cocoon. After death

[bitter grail]

If the enemy is charging yes but stationary and they aren't even a hot/spiked surface it looks annoying

[slim thorn]

thats the thing
thats useless so it doesnt even say it

[sacred horizon]

Second sentinel prob just knows nail arts just cause it’s a programmed warrior (if I remember correctly)

Almost without exception thats like always the case. Also, the tree boss, cant remember her name atm, the sister whatever. She telegraphs her fall so hard its crazy, so contact damage there is also not an issue

[sacred horizon]

I wouldn’t say that’s useless

(who can hear the voice)

[full halo]

What’s the last silk skill?

[weary gorge]

No, ||sister splinter ||

[supple river]

The only thing I think is BS about combat so far is that my binds are interrupted by boss intros and sometimes i lose out on a full spool of silk

[sacred horizon]

I’ve been summoned

[hybrid parrot]

shit i wanted to aura farm and get 100 heavy rosary strings

[turbid pasture]

TROBBIOOO

[alpine bronze]

Me

[supple river]

-<

[carmine yoke]

I choose to believe that the Sentinels were made by the Pinstresses alongside a lot of the other automoatons like Fourth Chorus (literally outside a former Pinstress' home like a guard dog)

[full halo]

Who has all red tools? What’s the tool next to straight pin called

[old gorge]

climb back up to the cradle

[supple river]

Also any good guides on the best tools at act 3? (not necessarily in act 3)

[sacred horizon]

Yo that’s actually a good point that I didn’t think of, kinda forgot about seamstress

[full halo]

Oh right I forgot

[weary gorge]

Agreed. Nerfing environment dmg was a fine in the area they did it because the platforming there was pretty tough already lol

[turbid pasture]

uh

[supple river]

I am still strugging to figure out what tools are good and bad

[bitter grail]

Pale Nails, get it from ||the severed arm of GMS by returning to her arena in Act 3||

[turbid pasture]

have you tried cogflys

[supple river]

Kind of a nail and silk skill enjoyer 'ere

[wraith rapids]

30 minutes of my life is gone, fuck this game

[split crystal]

Ana tonea rina ray bana gona funch na bow nay la

[turbid pasture]

is it for free?

[weary gorge]

I feel like one my first play through i didnt use tools all that much but on my second im spamming em at everything

[supple river]

Cogflies are good, but usually in fights where the enemy is very evasive or has weird positioning and makes it hard to chuck tools out

[full halo]

Ty I forgot to go back

[bitter grail]

Yeah you just bind it

[turbid pasture]

damn

[supple river]

Can other tools do more damage?

[carmine yoke]

The hole in my theory is the fact that there are a bunch of the Chorus automatons near Twelfth Architect which implies that the Architects made them 💔
(maybe they were just researching them to make more?)

[full halo]

What’s the red tool next to straight pin guys 😭 someone look

[split crystal]

https://tenor.com/view/hornet-hollow-knight-silksong-hornet-hollow-knight-flea-gif-5740879968467871304

[carmine yoke]

Trifold Pin I think

[supple river]

like Trobbio, what tools do I use against that lad

[turbid pasture]

flea brew

[sacred horizon]

I could see how pinstress moves were used as influence when architects made them, that’s atleast how thing are made in modern day

[carmine yoke]

Use the Cross Stitch Silk Skill, it goes through his tornado attack

[turbid pasture]

idk i don’t really use tools anymore

[supple river]

really?
he doesnt have many good attack windows so I dont run it

[empty trail]

zaza still staying there..

[supple river]

I KNOW!

What about tools though, im always sturggling to figure out what tools to use when

[dapper bay]

I wish I thought of that sooner 😭

[supple river]

Should I jsut convert to ||shaman ||crest?

[tidal ruin]

Cogflies is love, cogflies is life

[carmine yoke]

Yeah that's outside of my area of expertise, I never used red tools in boss fights

[supple river]

my thought is like "cogflies good but can I do more damage with a direc tool"

[split crystal]

https://tenor.com/view/hornet-playing-hornet-silksong-hornet-silksong-hollow-knight-silksong-gif-6193659343023373678

[sacred horizon]

I’ll be honest, in some fights like trobbios it’s better to just do without tools. I found it much easier actually parrying his attacks and pogoing off of him then worrying about the crazy damage output with tools cause he hides a lot

[tawdry sierra]

Cogflies are goated

This is why clankas are goated

[turbid pasture]

cogfly mid imo

[tidal ruin]

You could also to atom bomb build (I think its voltvassals + pollip pouch + the tool duplicator thing with architect crest)

[dapper bay]

I prefer the saws

[sacred horizon]

Cogflys are good situationally

[supple river]

i just have tools so im like "should i just use them
ur right tho

[carmine yoke]

Maybe the Sentinels were made by the Pinstress' and Fourth Chorus was given by the Architects to keep a former Pinstress safe when she was retiring as a form of repayment?

[verbal quartz]

I like them with poison

[supple river]

the thing with bossess like trobbio and seth are that they just hide like bastards and are really hard to get with tools

[tawny palm]

im watching someone play hollow knight for the first time after playing silksong

he called lifeblood plasmium

[marsh jacinth]

cogflies are goated when paired with polup pouch and used slowly (one at a time), then all you as the player have to do is avoid attacks as the poison homing grenades ruin bosses lives

[supple river]

most tools usually do well against bosses that are on screen and have slightly predictable movement patterns

[sacred horizon]

I was like that in act 2, really don’t worry about tools are crazy amount, you don’t need to use them if they don’t fit your playstyle

[supple river]

my build does not afford pollip pouches i am a nuclear bind withc crest enjoyer

[sacred horizon]

I could possibly see that cause why else would fourth chorus be there, honestly wish more lore was given about it

[supple river]

i dont need to but silk mom gave them to me, I may as well use them

[livid rain]

I have a question. Is ||Wingmould Entry missable for the 100% Hunter’s Memento?||

[marsh jacinth]

then use orange juice/flintslate

[supple river]

its a lot of damage im not utilizing

[carmine yoke]

it's either a gesture of goodwill or the Citadel was hunting the Seamstress for whatever reason

[supple river]

normally I would say "ok" but I run into a lot of problems with bosess that have super small attack windows

[sacred horizon]

Yeah that makes sense, so whatever is best. I’d say focus more on nail and silk stuff but you can use tools for chip damage

[supple river]

most likely the latter

[marsh jacinth]

like whom?

[supple river]

seth, trobbio

[carmine yoke]

actually, Seamstress' dialogue suggests she has been pursued by the Citadel, but why

[coarse leaf]

Guys help me... I can't let go 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙬! Addiction

[tight viper]

Her former occupation made her an enemy

[jolly quail]

Guys ngl I think Seth was such an amazing boss fight it evolved the way I play cause now I’ve beaten like 3 bosses in less than 4 tries

[sacred horizon]

Trobbio is really just pogo off of tornado attack and then just wait till he keeps doing that, then get small hits here and there when available

[sacred horizon]

This but with tormented Trobbio

[dapper bay]

Oh shaw! good luck with that 🫡

[carmine yoke]

But if Pinstress' are an enemy of the Citadel then why do the Sentinels use Pinstress techniques?

[turbid pasture]

trobbio!

[marsh jacinth]

idk how trobbio has small attack windows, he has large ones ime. Seth makes sense and I also had a very difficult time figuring out good times to take a swipe safely at him (after shield-slam explosion is one, but otherwith idk)

[jolly quail]

I just picked up trovbio 40 seconds ago ngl 😭 ✌️

[feral bramble]

where is the best place for ros in act 3?

[supple river]

hes under the floorboards for quie a bit of he fight

[brittle elbow]

if anyone installed the "qol" mod by vitax
i don't recommend turning ANYTHING on except for InstantText

[jolly quail]

He’s not a magician just some worthless clown

[manic perch]

Would Hornet beat the shit out of modern day US politicians?

[tight viper]

The Pinstress’ were tasked with training the Sentinels, and then were betrayed by the Citadel

[supple river]

he backdashes a ton
he has a lot of zoning

[turbid pasture]

yes

[jolly quail]

https://tenor.com/view/humiliation-gif-15286700201477220686

[carmine yoke]

Gasp
The bastards

[coarse leaf]

I need 𝙂𝙞𝙩 𝙂𝙪𝙙 oh my gwod

[supple river]

the atack windows arent small so much as I dont have enough time to squeeze a lot out of flint juice

[woeful gale]

google traslates ||gms|| as ||grandmother silk|| 😭

[marsh jacinth]

like idk maybe i innately figured something out but I tend to watch the spotlights a lot in the trobbio fights and I get tuns of hits in on emergance and with diagonals on tornados

[supple river]

more like you can, extended hits

[dapper bay]

Right outside whiteward. I believe it’s the same room as the elevator down and there’s a bench passed it. Just keep running left then go back.

[naive geyser]

My area ranking

[turbid pasture]

?

[manic perch]

Thank you Shakra, we knew you would know Hornet better than anyone else

[jolly quail]

Bilewaters too high

[supple river]

sorry I spoke weirdly,
there are a lot of atack windows i dont have much time to put out extended flurries

[naive geyser]

real

[coarse leaf]

Image that can be hear...

(Also me put it on the alarm)

[supple river]

I might be goofing atm

[turbid pasture]

yeah

[feral bramble]

between bench and ventrica route?

[supple river]

since juice and flint want bossess that stand still, dont leave the screen, and dont force you at a distance

[wind compass]

Phantom finisher is so good

[marsh jacinth]

so take quick hits, 2 hits safely and consistantly is better than 14 hits maybe and most likely your gonna get hit/canceled

[supple river]

i agree its more "how do I use juice/flint on trobbio"

[turbid pasture]

trobbio!

[supple river]

since I struggle to use tools by memory
also what ttools wokr on this guy

[turbid pasture]

uh tacks might work

[supple river]

hmmm

[dapper bay]

Yes but not all the way. You should only need to go through 2 transitions before going back to the bench

[turbid pasture]

idk, he is airborn for some time

cogflys work well

[vivid belfry]

Do not do this

[coarse leaf]

No Rosaries?

[marsh jacinth]

juice is to close distance when he's under-stage, flint is just to make those 2 hits more effective and it's not like there's a burn-decay so like if you get 3 hits in on the first slate and then get a chance to pop another slate, that 4th hit will burn

[vivid belfry]

Trobbio eats tacks for breakfast

Without any milk

[marsh jacinth]

even if it's been 45 seconds

troobio just tornado's tacks away

[turbid pasture]

cogflys will probably be good

[woeful gale]

huh

[light swan]

can someone send the average reaper crest user gif

[vivid belfry]

Pimpillo, straight pin, anything you can control the timing of can really fuck him up

[marsh jacinth]

bombs work well on trobbio ime

[woeful gale]

how long do you think will the low%TE be?

[ruby ermine]

double bell eaters for godhome 🙏

[turbid pasture]

pimpillo sucks

[woeful gale]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-silksong-reaper-crest-the-mist-greymoor-gif-13464358243469655364

[slim thorn]

love when you can turn shards into rosaries

[light swan]

ty

[leaden mist]

fari dula

[rocky cosmos]

[vivid belfry]

Idk they're not too expensive for how damaging they are

[woeful gale]

since you're a witch crest fan do you think i should ge the secret ending or skip it get the witch crest and do the ending in another save file?

[vivid belfry]

It's not as strong as flintslate but what is

[rocky cosmos]

witch crest

[coarse leaf]

this is me...

[turbid pasture]

witch crest fan, friend me and teach me your ways

[feral bramble]

117 ros in 1.20 min THIS IS SUCK MAN

[alpine mica]

https://tenor.com/view/gfhmj-gif-12237615378683590679

[supple river]

Wait a minute....

• I dont use tools
• I dont really need blue tools
• I love parry
• I love zoning
  SHOULD I JUST USE SHAMAN CREST???

[feral bramble]

in act 2 i was getting 520 ros in around 2 min

[light swan]

you might as well get the secret ending now, its super difficult but if youre good enough then go ahead

[edgy cove]

guys whats your least favorite flea game

[supple river]

I know it's act 3 in general when will I get it/will I run into it

[pine canyon]

Y'all my friend keeps saying "hornet is void" what do I respond with

[light swan]

starting a new file sounds like a lot of work

[tight viper]

True!!1!!!111

[supple river]

||act 3 tho?||

[light swan]

when you destroy her cocoon black void balls come out

[weary gorge]

btw I love that you're a witch crest enjoyer. I also say shaman crest is prob the hardest flex in the game imo

[alpine mica]

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-try-not-to-laugh-gif-7682731162751353849

[rocky cosmos]

no

[ripe bison]

flea 21

[pliant radish]

anyone know where a mask shard is

[tight viper]

Left

[turbid pasture]

can we have a crest that gives you 2 silkskills and one tookslot so we can be hornet sentinel

[supple river]

reaper but I am forced to learn the game/have good attack speed

[woeful gale]

up

[rocky cosmos]

which

[full halo]

What’s this tool

[haughty owl]

down

[burnt patrol]

bounce

[weary gorge]

@supple river get all the fleas first I say, you get a charm that lowers the cost of silk skills when at full health

[light swan]

guys i love witch crest too :D

[torn spear]

Wait so hitboxes are a tiny bit less than both your weaponry and the enemy model ? No wonder we are skill issued

[rocky cosmos]

cant remember

[supple river]

eh
i run multibind quickbind longclaw like a coward on every build
maybe I should stop though
Full health is a very hard thing to maintain tho

[tight viper]

Think that’s in High Halls

[brittle elbow]

tsk stupid vitax qol mod making me have to download a save editor coz it permanently sets the "ConstructedFarsight" flag and now i have a Farsight stuck in my inventory

[woeful gale]

What does the witch crest do idk how to get it but it's the only one that i don't have rn

[tight viper]

Did you use a simple key in high halls

[edgy cove]

good god

[full halo]

yes

[rocky cosmos]

is flea bounce wr above 2000 already?

[woeful gale]

quickbind?? where do you get that i need it

[tight viper]

Did you get a tool from that room

[turbid pasture]

whiteward

[supple river]

Citadel, I wont tell you where though (unless you ask)

[full halo]

Idk cogfly?

[supple river]

yeah its whiteward but not super hard to miss

[woeful gale]

i ask you

[noble jolt]

healing does dmg

[weary gorge]

You should really consider it because with Shaman Crest you're going to need to heal as little as possible, but with that charm you get to heal a little bit more since your silk skills are cheaper

[tight viper]

Head back there and take another look around

[supple river]

whiteward

[woeful gale]

WHAT

[brittle elbow]

how much faster does it make bind go again? -40%?

[supple river]

I mean yeah its just... full health is hard to maintain,
Ill probably drop quickbind though

[noble jolt]

:3

[formal sail]

lol poor girl

[woeful gale]

I got the silk heart from it but can't find that 😭

[brittle elbow]

it's like you bind for 1s and ts shaves off like 400ms off of that

[supple river]

fr???

[noble jolt]

naw she loves it

[woeful gale]

she likes that

[supple river]

its like really obviously placed in one of the halls, the room might be mildly hidden

[bold breach]

She's having a great time with all that floof

[weary gorge]

fair. Just something to explore imo

[woeful gale]

I have all the rooms discovered (I think) but haven't seen it

[weary estuary]

Its near where that one sherma quest is

[supple river]

also shaman crest, any general hitns on when it comes up in act 3 but not obvious spoilers i need it so badly please god

[turbid pasture]

it really depends if you get hit a lot or not

[weary gorge]

I'll report back soon with my own shaman experience rn

[woeful gale]

there's a sherma quest??

[weary estuary]

No…

[formal sail]

probably, if not she wouldnt have done this 3 times already

[candid gyro]

does missing the Garmond act 2 fight mean i will now have a permanent empty spot in the materium?

[weary gorge]

is this in the game?

[brittle elbow]

rip i think ||shakra wants to fight me now?||

[supple river]

NOOOOOO YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO KNOW YET

[feral bramble]

first

[weary gorge]

ah

[woeful gale]

now i'm confused 😭

[bold breach]

It's in a Chapel that only opens in Act 3, and you need a new movement ability you only get in Act 3

[weary estuary]

I thought you were much later in the game 💔
