Oh absolutely it’s gonna be like near Shakra’s master and everyone is gonna groan getting to it

[gaunt sigil]

Nyleth is the easiest boss I've ever fought besides Moss Mother.

hornet: I'm going to go into his head and kill him. kehehehe

[tulip spire]

The heroic crust king Khann:

[crisp heron]

i actually agree skifhtly cause ive never died to her in my 3 playtrhoughs one of then which was a be as underleveled as i can playthrough

[gaunt sigil]

Yeah let's try that one

[crisp heron]

garmond and zaza is by far like the easiest fight im surprised people dont compare it to the collosseum zote fight

[hallow panther]

I’m definitely considering this for steel soul

[tulip spire]

I mean it’s a joke boss? It’s in my negative difficulty tier

[atomic lichen]

takes more thanone hit to defeat him, that's why

[crisp heron]

ive seen alot of tierlists pf like boss difficulty and somehow it doesnt even make bottom 5 sometiems

[tulip spire]

This is where I’d put first playthrough assuming normal progression boss difficulty (clapper is the entire hhg)

[atomic lichen]

and besides garmond is actually useful against the moorwing

[sturdy wraith]

Lost garmond or dual garmond?

[untold dune]

yeah i did basically this for steel soul lol

[crisp heron]

dual

[atomic lichen]

all zote does in brag and steal your girl

[zenith lagoon]

btw whats new in steel soul?

[sturdy wraith]

I dont like lost garmond fight it literally gave me depression

[untold dune]

groal would be mostly just annoying imo

[tulip spire]

He’s very exploitable so he escapes that tier

[misty vine]

Groal was at least hard

I can’t think of too many other bosses where holding a point means 99% of their attacks miss

Even widow can still get you with her knife attack

You want to turn the average Silksong player into an Underworker

[atomic lichen]

yes. 😭

[crisp heron]

i hate this cow

[wraith dragon]

How do you even beat the last wave of high hall gauntlet

[cunning coral]

use tacks

[wraith dragon]

I did it by saving all of my red tool and spam it in last wave

[tulip spire]

Wife

[cunning coral]

and camp on the wall

[misty vine]

By letting Shakra do it for you

[crisp heron]

more like... attacks... an i rught lads or am i rught lads

[untold dune]

focus on one at a time, never get inbewteen them both

[cunning coral]

ye but u gotta do trails end

[wraith dragon]

I DIDNT KNOW YOU COULD, i finished it before going to bilewater

[atomic lichen]

he also helps you againt the high hall gauntlt if you haven't finished shakra's quest

[terse forum]

Top 10 boss fights imo prior to act 3
1 widow
2 shakra
3 moorwing
4 trobbio
5 phantom
6 cogwork dancers
7 last judge
8 lace 2
9 gms
10 groll / bell beast

[misty vine]

So? You want to do that anyways

[terse forum]

Ascended grip with cogwork flys and conchcutter

[silver nacelle]

I think that's the rule for fighting any two large enemies.

It's a lot easier to focus on dodging more attacks from one direction than less attacks from two.

[tulip spire]

I literally did trail’s end in steel soul just now lol. I would rather do 95% of bilewater on steel soul than face even one choir clapper

[sturdy wraith]

/pogo

[untold dune]

yeah exactly

[misty vine]

And Garmond is there if you don't get Shakra

[atomic lichen]

i let shakra do 95% of the work in the high halls gauntlet

[crisp heron]

watch out guys if yiu do the hugh halls gauntlet before getring shakras help then you can not do the hugh halls gauntlet with shakras jelp

[tulip spire]

My cowardice knows no limits

[wraith dragon]

I spammed tack and cogfly on last wave which instantly destroy one of them, making it easier to beat up the other one

[misty vine]

For real

[sturdy wraith]

I let my needle and silk do 99% of the work

[wraith dragon]

Thats how i won the gauntlet

[untold dune]

i only did the shakra thing for steel soul, every other playthrough i just rawdog it because i actually rly enjoy hhg

[sour scarab]

heyy loves!

[atomic lichen]

if you duel garmond and zaza before getting shkra's help they will help you instead

[crisp heron]

in my last playthrough i used garmond for high halls gauntlet his dialogue after it mskes me sad

[terse forum]

Hot take: groll isn't as bad as everyone says he is

[tulip spire]

It’s weird that I don’t really like hhg but I love coral tower

[silver nacelle]

I should really set up a shaman only steel soul run.

But not having my silk hearts would suck.

[atomic lichen]

i tossed voltvessels in his mouth

[wraith dragon]

Its mostly the runback and how dodgy the enemy was during the gauntlet for me

[misty vine]

I was hoping that you could get both Shakra and Garmomd to help you with the fight ngl

[crisp heron]

70% of rhe run is shamanless😔

[tulip spire]

I think it might just be that I kinda hate the golden head guys

[silver nacelle]

;-; I wanna start with my boi.

[gloomy hill]

hit them /j

here is a good strat, if you are allowing yourself to use tools, this is the time you bring them out. Always have both of the big guys on the same side of hornet, hit and run works very well, if you get cornered use the wall to get above and around them and then repeat on the other side

[terse forum]

Run back? What run back theirs a bench 2 feet away from hhg

[untold dune]

garmond isnt that helpful anyway tbh

[wraith dragon]

I was talking about groal

[cunning coral]

i guess but i couldnt bother before that lol

[sturdy wraith]

Who agrees with me -
Garmond carried in moorwing fight

[misty vine]

Yeah but still. It'd feel way nicer

[wraith dragon]

Oh wrong reply LMAO

[untold dune]

true

[atomic lichen]

i had also shut off the clawmaidens so those annoying robot spider's didn't show up in the HHG

[tulip spire]

I did remember to turn the fucking clawmaidens off this time

[split cape]

Hes trying

[cosmic steeple]

shakra absolutely carries HHG

[untold dune]

yeah and i do fully respect him for that

[wraith dragon]

I was replying to this one

[misty vine]

OH, they show up there if you hadn't done that??? Woah, I didn't know, bomb completely avoided

[wraith dragon]

I got the hidden bench but its dtill annoying

[untold dune]

yeah theyre in like 4 of the waves

[terse forum]

His run backs only like a minute or somthing

[split cape]

Fought till the end like a hero

[cosmic steeple]

same, i only found out that they appear there AFTER i deactivated them

[tulip spire]

Yes they do and they pretty much stop any momentum you can build they suck so fucking bad

[wraith dragon]

Water

[cunning coral]

https://tenor.com/view/sherma-hollow-knight-hollow-knight-silksong-my-beloved-my-beloved-meme-gif-25724064

[untold dune]

i didnt know i could deactivate them until i finished my first playthrough

[wraith dragon]

Without wreath of purity the runback sucks so much

[terse forum]

Die to him once then just insta bind n stay on the platforms

[silver nacelle]

Hey, chat, I wanna do a shaman only steel soul run but I don't wanna start without silk hearts.

What are some concessions do y'all think I should make for silk hearts?

[atomic lichen]

if it had been zote he would have been flattened

[tulip spire]

You can avoid touching the water entirely you know

[cosmic steeple]

thats why you completely avoid bilewater until you get wreath, and speedrun the ducts to get wreath

[misty vine]

Yeah wow that makes that room way more helpful than I thought, honestly it felt kinda weird how anti-climactic it was, didn't feel like it affected much but that's a HUGE help for that gauntlet then

[atomic lichen]

his neck keeps getting longer

[untold dune]

honestly its really not that bad, once you're used to the layout its not that hard to avoid the maggots on the runback, and theres a hidden silk stash right before the groal arena just in case

[tulip spire]

Zote solos hhg have you see his coliseum trophy

[silver topaz]

Green peen

[terse forum]

https://tenor.com/view/hornet-git-gud-hollow-knight-gif-487380231553167495

[misty vine]

Agreed, yeah, you can absolutely master the runback and never touch maggots. I still used Wreath for the first half of the actual fight though lol

[cunning coral]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-gif-18287800

[sturdy wraith]

[atomic lichen]

why in the world did they make brumm so buff

[untold dune]

plus the new multibinder buff makes it a wreath substitute anyway

[silver nacelle]

Should I give myself 5 silk hearts and do spell only (with weavelight and the three in the game that would mean I'd be able to bind only after Lace 2)

[silver topaz]

Buff accordion player

[cosmic steeple]

brumm has to be one of/if not the COOLEST NPC in the game

[tulip spire]

Bumm

[finite swift]

I got all of them... finally...

[tulip spire]

Where’s Pablo

[misty vine]

I don't get the Brumm glazing

[untold dune]

brumm is chill, not my favorite npc but nothing wrong with them

[cosmic steeple]

hes sick wdym?!

[misty vine]

Yeah agreed

[tulip spire]

Zote would have taken GMS out himself tbh

[gloomy fjord]

Who the hell is brumm

[untold dune]

i can understand the hype

[misty vine]

I see nothing to really hype there at all though

[untold dune]

the accordion guy from grimm troupe

[cosmic steeple]

play the game💔

[untold dune]

eh whatever i wouldnt remember his name if i wasnt a hk nerd

[gloomy fjord]

I did play hollow knight but only beat hollow knight and then rage quitted at pantheon and white palace parkour

[misty vine]

Zote vs GMS would be kinda like fighting GMS cursed

[tulip spire]

If they ever make the Zote game the like first act boss should just be vengefly king and it’s actually kind of challenging because your moveset sucks

[atomic lichen]

brumm. he works for grimm.

[cosmic steeple]

sad🥀

[untold dune]

i hope you go back and beat white palace one day, the true ending is so hype

[gloomy fjord]

Yeah I will go back to hollow knight after(if I can ever do it) I beat steel soul first ending with no red tools

[cosmic steeple]

side note*, wdym by true ending bc we ALL agree its dream no more right... (idc what TC says)

[finite swift]

up my ass

dig in to find it

[misty vine]

Zote vs GMS you can't deal any damage with your shellwood blade so instead you have to use it to push her into her own damaging effects

[atomic lichen]

nah the true ending is the godhome ending

[untold dune]

yes i mean dream no more (fuck p5 ending being canon its dumb)

[tulip spire]

Zote would destroy her with life ender dude

[cosmic steeple]

nuh uh

[silver topaz]

Babagundala

[untold dune]

Babagundala

[finite swift]

make all hollow knight characters do six seven

[silver nacelle]

Or, alternatively, the game takes place in Zote's imagination and you have a really powerful moveset, but Vengefly King is the final boss and is more difficult than Absrad.

[silver topaz]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-floppy-hornet-slap-nuu-gif-11086988873395759079

[cosmic steeple]

okay but it IS cannon imo, if we had to have a cannon one its NOT the p5 one, the seeker is so random and irrelevant

[gloomy hill]

uh no he was fucking useless ngl

[tulip spire]

I just want if there’s a game where Zote has to actually get stronger the first major character/plot development is him actually just barely squeaking out a win against vengefly king lol

[finite swift]

He was amazing

[grizzled sierra]

mods crush their bones

[silver topaz]

He didn’t help me

[gloomy fjord]

I like the art that you made though, please don’t ever do it again

[atomic lichen]

nah i prfer the ending where the hollow knight gets to live

[untold dune]

yeah, the idea of embrace the void being canon just means they would want most players to do p5 in order to see the canon ending, which is unreasonable

[atomic lichen]

team cherry said all endings are canon

[cosmic steeple]

i know and its really good but cmon you gotta admit what the HELL does the seeker have to do with anything

[cosmic steeple]

shhhhhhhhh

[silver nacelle]

That's not happening lmao. Zote is not that self conscious.

[silver topaz]

I’m a cannon

[misty vine]

I do want Zoteboat but by the gods do not let it be a game where he actually gets stronger. He needs to be useless the entire time and you have to use the environment to kill things

[tulip spire]

Also like wouldn’t it just mean Hallownest is mega fucked because the void is just loose there lol

[untold dune]

i feel like theyve changed their mind on that because there is a 0% chance sealed siblings is canon

[gloomy hill]

he wouldn't help much even if you got him to

[atomic lichen]

i gave the seeker a delicate flower

[gloomy fjord]

You do not want to see a full strength zote. Of course the game is always nerfing him

[misty vine]

Everyone keeps misinterpreting this though

[atomic lichen]

the delicate flower seeker ending is canon

[untold dune]

exactly, unless you use the everbloom variant, but then the shade lord doesnt exist to show up at the end of skong

[tulip spire]

Zote is already too powerful which is why we’ll never get a Zote game. It’d be too easy if we played as Zote the Mighty

[grizzled sierra]

non dlc endings.

[gaunt sigil]

Broooo he's goddamn easy, the gauntlet is just annoying

[silver topaz]

Coral tower?

[gaunt sigil]

Yea

[atomic lichen]

the dlc was part of the entire game when i bought it on the switch

[silver topaz]

Ofc

[tulip spire]

I better keep my ass in the tower or im FINISHED

[untold dune]

people say dlc to refer to the game updates for some reason, its weird imo

theyre officially called 'content packs'

[tulip spire]

Is it not the textbook definition of “downloadable content”

[gaunt sigil]

Khann one try nyleth one try, karmelita is just perfect

[atomic lichen]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-gif-23741516

[hallow panther]

Skarr, the embodiment of telegraphed attacks

[untold dune]

if you want to take it so literally, everything on the internet is 'downloadable content'

[silver nacelle]

Technically, everything is DLC then which I'm fine with.

[tall rain]

Are the bugs on the surface just normal bugs? Hornets journal suggests that since theyre not in Pharloom, they don't have any sentience

[silver topaz]

And yet i die

[grizzled sierra]

true because it needs to be downloaded and its content

[untold dune]

i mean we have non-sapient bugs in pharloom already

[tall rain]

Also, how big are all these bugs compared to people? Are all these bugs fighting Eldritch level horror while the rest of us are just chillin?

[tulip spire]

I wonder how big the bugs are supposed to be. Like. Are they people sized or is Hornet just like two inches tall

[misty vine]

The game Hollow Knight is downloadable content, all endings are DLC endings

[old island]

i wish skong had options to spare bosses such as moss mother, last judge, phantom, first sinner

[untold dune]

no canon heights, up to your interpretation

[old island]

pharloom fits in ur backyard

[tall rain]

Source?

[untold dune]

the source is that there is no source to link

[misty vine]

What. They're literally saying there are no sources yet

[grizzled sierra]

hollow knight and silksong take place in Australia

[atomic lichen]

the bugs in the hollow knight universe are in a different universe than our own

[torn coral]

Last judge technically committed suicide

[gloomy fjord]

It’s just people wanting hornet to be human sized😭

[grizzled sierra]

yes but in Australia in that universe

[tulip spire]

I mean given their weapon names are just like. Small household objects I feel like the needle is probably actually about as big as a standard sewing needle

[old island]

just dodge until it commits a second sentinel and stops attacking

or it rusts idk

[untold dune]

either way is fine tbh, i dont see an issue with human sized hkverse

[old island]

nail
needle
pin
curvesickle

[tall rain]

So basically humans don't exist in hollow knight verse

[misty vine]

We have no idea so probably not

[old island]

fleas being 2-3 feet wide in diameter

[tulip spire]

I mean yeah there’s no vertebrates at all though some bugs have bones for some reason

[misty vine]

Based if true, can you imagine

[torn coral]

Bring a watering can or a spray bottle to the fight at that point

[atomic lichen]

long dead wyrm maybe?

[digital oriole]

now what

[old island]

me after doing nothing but playing skong and watching yt all day (i feel hollow)

[silver salmon]

I have a question about Hunter’s March

[tulip spire]

Now you play a different game lol

[grizzled sierra]

at night?

[gloomy fjord]

I still am not actually sure, is the nail the knight uses a metal nail or is it literally a human nail 🤔

[tall rain]

And essentially, if there's no higher being (radiance, pale king, GMS) in the vicinity of where the bugs are at, then they don't have any sentience at all... They just exist like regular bugs.

[digital oriole]

like what

[tulip spire]

I assume a metal nail

[untold dune]

explain this npc then

[tulip spire]

Hop on Signalis

[tall rain]

Syfau

[old island]

devs deleted terry sadly

[grizzled sierra]

damn I didn’t know they added terry the human and deleted them 1 patch later

[umbral hearth]

can you kill him

[untold dune]

yeah

[grizzled sierra]

he is already dead

[stuck bone]

actually

[umbral hearth]

i don't like him i hate terry

[atomic lichen]

if the bugs in pharloon were already sentient does this mean a wyrm gave them sentience in the days long past, before even the GMS was around?

[tulip spire]

Oh yeah speaking of patches is the Chinese shit finally fixed

[old island]

apparently terrys needolin dialogue had deltarune spoilers in it

[misty vine]

No

[old island]

greyroot

[misty vine]

Some bugs are just sentient already without needing a higher being

[grizzled sierra]

chapter 7 or 8?

Sherma is a little shit btw

cite yalls sources

[tulip spire]

I was curious about if we had a clue as to who was talking in the phantom memory so i switched to Japanese trying to see if we got an お姉さん, which would indicate lace is speaking

[gloomy fjord]

So true, I hate his bitchass, annoying singing

[tulip spire]

They just omit the word “sister” in Japanese lol

[old island]

act 2 when ||kris noelle and berdly make it to the twilight reverie but it crashes into the undertales where they pay 15G per save point||

[gloomy fjord]

I want a mod where sherma can be killed

[old island]

what is that

[gloomy fjord]

I hate him so much

[tulip spire]

The memory in the exhaust organ

[umbral hearth]

can we all throw this guy in the junk yard please

[old island]

no the japanese

[lean peak]

it means older sister

[misty vine]

Yep agreed absolutely

[untold dune]

i want a mod where sherma can be elevated to higher being

[old island]

ah ok

grandsherma silk

[stuck bone]

we deadass chatting bout deltarune in a hk server

[old island]

lil buggy vs rory nite

[untold dune]

there is so much fandom overlap tbh

[gloomy fjord]

I genuinely dislike sherma, annoying singing, he is evil, HE IS A GROWNASS MAN WHEN I THOUGHT HE WAS A LITTLE KID

[young sable]

you hear of that mod that lets you play as the knight in silksong?

[tulip spire]

“Big sister”. If that was the tl it’d clarify who was speaking (lace). But the word is missing in Japanese entirely so it’s still extremely ambiguous as to whether Lace is speaking and addressing Phantom as sister, or the opposite

[untold dune]

ok beyond sherma being cute or whatever, they actually have the best and most interesting character arc in the game imo

[finite swift]

Imagine dying naked LMAAAOOOO

[old island]

shermas bitchass whining about medical supplies half of act 2 bc he has NO dialogue

[gloomy fjord]

SHERMA THE TRASH, I WISH HIM A SLOW AND PAINFUL DEATH FOR ALL THE PAIN HE CAUSED ME WITH HIS SINGING

[misty vine]

do you think Sherma is helping bugs in Songclave transition with those Whiteward supplies

[untold dune]

gms doesnt possess this one because shes based

[old island]

transition to what, an amalgamate

[finite swift]

I wouldn't want a naked bug flying at me lowkey

[misty vine]

based though

[old island]

also ooh im at 83% completion

[torn coral]

Bell beast > Last stag
Reason:

[gloomy fjord]

Remove sherma from the game

[humble zephyr]

just beat my grandmother to death 🥰 🥰

[tulip spire]

I wonder why Sherma isn’t susceptible to the haunting like the other pilgrims

[gloomy fjord]

NOW BEAT SHERMA TO DEATH

[humble zephyr]

bet

[old island]

bell eater deadass took me twice as many tries as first sinner

[tulip spire]

Same with the pilgrims at songclave and the residents of Bellhart

[young sable]

you hear of that mod that lets you play as the knight in silksong?

[umbral hearth]

yes

[untold dune]

yea its hype

[old island]

myla sacrificed herself so sherma would get the "this wouldnt happen again too predictable" plot armor

[misty vine]

Yeah cause you just said this exact same thing earlier

[tulip spire]

How would clawline work

[gloomy fjord]

@untold dune I love verdania, it’s my favourite area, but fuck palegstag. Bitchass boss with one damaging move

[finite swift]

Isn't the knight technically in Silksong

[young sable]

and?

[untold dune]

it doesnt lol

[old island]

lil buggy = void
void = shapeshifty
lil buggy become clawline

[finite swift]

He throws himself and hooks onto the circle

[upbeat dirge]

Yeah

[torn coral]

@young sable Atomic heart pfp

[tulip spire]

So like does the knight get additional movement upgrades or

[wraith dragon]

Lowkey but my favorite fight is lace 2

Bench nearby
Fast reaction test
Every hit is actually my fault instead of annoying ads in my dash

[untold dune]

no its just their classic moveset, and you can switch back to hornet for the impossible parts

[tulip spire]

Because you kinda need the ledge grab, sprint, drift and clawline to do anything lol

[misty vine]

wow that's pretty lame ngl

[untold dune]

only 2 months since release btw, its only a beta

[tulip spire]

Like the knight would not be able to beat fourth chorus lol

[finite swift]

this in silksong

[gloomy fjord]

Bell eater

[finite swift]

Fair

[old island]

HATE.

[tulip spire]

Scrounge my beloved

[light swan]

not too shabby, sawtooth circlet vid :D

[upbeat dirge]

Has one of the best boss endings

[misty vine]

SCROUNGE!!!

[old island]

LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE Bell Eater IN THE Eight TRIES IT TOOK ME TO BEAT IT.

[light swan]

i uploaded my second sentinel video earlier today and i already got called a tas bro

[tulip spire]

It took you four tries to beat first sinner?

[old island]

BUTT TROBBIO BOMB LAUNCHER.

[old island]

yes

[young sable]

whats tas?

[tulip spire]

Not to be rude but um how

[finite swift]

GODDAM

[old island]

rush it and heal whatever it lands on u
since ur a witch crest user ur basically just wailing on it

[untold dune]

tool assisted speedrun

[old island]

first sinner: fun, it was the last thing i was gonna do before finishing act 3 quest, i locked in
bell eater: i was traumatized from fighting the voided citadel dudes after being nuked by the portal 2 contraption snail guy made and needed some time to adjust

[finite swift]

Sometimes when I'm bored I dip Kratt in boiling hot water and he screams for his life 😂😂😂

[tulip spire]

Does anyone else just go into scrounge’s house just to hear her funny groan of annoyance at you on the way up to the bellhome or is it just me

[old island]

also butt trobbio

[misty vine]

Yes I also do that

[old island]

like dawg i 100% expected first sinner to have a second fakeout bc i knew i didnt beat ts fourth try

[light swan]

for reference it was a hitless video if you haven’t seen it before

[untold dune]

i beat first sinner first try tbh

[tulip spire]

First sinner has never come close to killing me 💔

[light swan]

i assume this is a good response :D second time editing something (first time was also today)

[light swan]

i’m low-key really happy with this the loop is kinda good

[old island]

also shaman crest is fire, free elegy

[cosmic steeple]

throw him into the father of the flame

[tulip spire]

I gave her a handicap last time where I let her bind on purpose and only bound myself when she did

[finite swift]

if its you playing you are SKILLED

[tulip spire]

I think she never managed to get me below 4hp

[light swan]

yes thats me in the video

i’m not the #1 witch crest user for no reason

[tulip spire]

First sinner is a fraud 💔

[marsh spoke]

on fs i beat her on attempt three after my cells unlocked genetic memory from beating pv

[finite swift]

you HAVE to br the #1 😭

[old island]

how many hours u have in game

[marsh spoke]

i always first try her now it's awesome

[tulip spire]

It’s a very fun fight but I really feel like she could be a little harder

[young sable]

#1 and only one

[light swan]

uh 90 in both save files not accounting for menus or afk

[marsh spoke]

needs a third phase imo and more attacks

[tulip spire]

Honestly it’s just her x attack sucks ass and never lands ever so it’s just free hits on her when she rolls it

[light swan]

i feel like since she was my very first witch crest bossfight, if she was any harder i woulda crashed out

[old island]

i have 46 😭

[light swan]

she’s personally super fun to nohit aggressively too

[old island]

and im struggling with the voided hunters march arena

[marsh spoke]

i just generally enjoy the attacks so id like to see more of them. the x attack is kinda ass though

[light swan]

wait why did i cook so hard with this im so happy

[tulip spire]

Honestly I think projectile spam bosses like this I’m mostly alright with. I did the deltarune shadow ch3 crystal boss pre nerf this shit is nothing to me

[mint lantern]

i just realized something, why cant hornet use crests cloakless even when crests themselves are fighting style from memory and could probably be independent without the help of hornets cloak?

[silver nacelle]

That's actually really cool.

[tulip spire]

She’s shy

[silver nacelle]

Because she doesn't have her weapon.

[light swan]

she doesn’t have her needle

[pure nebula]

Gonna do a new save file so I can better judge the game.

[mint lantern]

oh right

[light swan]

thanks !!

i honestly feel like i could’ve done so much more productive things instead of making that video but it’s honestly fine

[silver nacelle]

As a wise person once said: time wasted on something you enjoy is not wasted time.

[light swan]

also made an animation cancelling one earlier today

[tulip spire]

I wish you could always hit Kratt like Millibelle instead of just the one time

[light swan]

the hornet voicelines over the text is actually my most favorite part

[pure nebula]

Its very cute

[silver nacelle]

Why's trobbio at the end???

[old island]

ok this next screen recording i made of me attempting that hunters march arena genuinely sucks

let it compress rq

[light swan]

did you notice he does a lip smack / kiss at the end of the voicelines

[static valve]

What’s your highs core in ||flee bounce||

[silver nacelle]

I thought that was just an audio glitch lol.

[light swan]

i just really wanted to put trobbio in the videos

[tulip spire]

I think like 68 or something

[silver nacelle]

Just enough to get the Pale oil.

[light swan]

i put him in the other one too !!

[old island]

this gameplay will make u cringe

[static valve]

Nice my first try was 57 but I lost Becuase I just barely over estimated the speed of one of the ||flees||

Well first try with my normal crest wanderers

I had one more try with witch I was using that one for ||juggle||

Pogoing is the best part of this game

[restive ibex]

I love this sprite

[light swan]

i lost all hope after seeing you mess up climbing that wall and almost dying to the flying guy, but you did better in the arena than i expected

[light swan]

shape of unn?

[old island]

nah normally i get past those spear skarrs, i completely sold this time 😭

the first spear skarr always messes me up tho, havent double died yet

[restive ibex]

vibes. naw its from lost lace sprite sheet

[old island]

imma actually try locking in and recording one

yoooo this time i actually did it

gonna be quite compressed tho

[pseudo wagon]

why did they give the hornfly pilgrim the most beautiful singing ever

[jade copper]

why tf its so hard

why does every boss 2x damage

like they have one move fr that does 2 heart damage

like why early bosses have som like that

[arctic epoch]

Git gud..?

[jade copper]

nah its som flying ahh bug

[pseudo wagon]

because everyone is insane at hollow knight. you are too.

[arctic epoch]

Git gud

[jade copper]

what is git gud?

[arctic epoch]

Get good 😭

[pallid spade]

I keep thinking ive done everything then i realise that I still have steam achievements…

[jade copper]

ohhh

[jade copper]

never help som body just saying

[pallid spade]

Doing any of the steel soul and speedrun things sound so unbelievably not fun

[normal token]

Once you get past the stress feeling it's fun

[arctic epoch]

Its just some flying bugs gng, if its literally the craws. You're in early game so just get good 😭

[pallid spade]

I can 100% understand that

[arctic epoch]

What even is the stress feeling? Isn't the stress part of the fun?

[mental topaz]

Speedrun is still okay at least you can die

[pallid spade]

However im in the awkward range of good enough at the game to try but not good enough at the game to be confident

The payout is crazy

[untold dune]

speedrun is actually rly fun if you plan ahead a bit

[arctic epoch]

Then you practice, i mean, i was a hardstuck and delusional Wanderer main 1 week ago

[untold dune]

steel soul is eh

[pallid spade]

I fear that I would lose all willingness after messing up a 100% speedrun attempt

[normal token]

The 100% speedrun is honestly v forgiving

[jade copper]

its moorwing

[pallid spade]

For the achievements do you have to beat all of act 3 or just gms

[untold dune]

they give you like twice as much time as you need for both achievements tbh, you can easily get a sub 20h on a 2nd playthrough wtihout even trying

[jade copper]

why tf its hard

[untold dune]

theres a diff achievement for both of those

[normal token]

For the under 5 hours one it's just gms
100% is act 3

[silver nacelle]

Tip for the future, clawline is a really good combat tool that gets boosted by Hunter's focus damage boost.

[pallid spade]

Because I spent so long doing exploration and funny things I have like ending at 60-something hours

[untold dune]

yeah thats normal for a first playthrough, on 2nd you will remember stuff and not need to dilly dally for so long

[pallid spade]

Here

[silver nacelle]

It also combos really well into the hunter pogo.

[arctic epoch]

Clawline combos well into anything

[untold dune]

i love clawline

[mental topaz]

I did a 2nd playthrough to fight Garmond because i missed it the first time, ended up doing the speed completion when i realized i had like 10 more hours when i was into act 3

[silver nacelle]

True. True. Clawline is great.

[ocean bridge]

clawline into anything goes hard

[arctic epoch]

Clawline is hard

[mental topaz]

Clawline is love, clawline is life

[normal token]

Clawline is

[untold dune]

yeah basically same but for twisted ending

[pallid spade]

When I get back from holiday I’m doing a cursed child run and a sub 5hr run

[silver nacelle]

This is the universal opinion on clawline. It's good.

[arctic epoch]

Clawline

[ocean bridge]

dash with damage basically

[pallid spade]

Darpshart

[arctic epoch]

Clawline superior to Rune Rage is peak game design

[silver nacelle]

Shame it does one less damage than max needle bcos I'd be able to kill a grand reed with clawline + silkspear.

[silver nacelle]

That's...not a high bar.

[jade copper]

help me nayone i wanna defeat moorwing

[silver nacelle]

Beast crest counters it hard.

[arctic epoch]

Erm.. Clawline being superior to kratt?

[jade copper]

whats that

[silver nacelle]

Somehow a lower bar.

[untold dune]

you want them to do savage beastfly instead? 😭

[silver nacelle]

Have you not gotten a single other crest? They're like different movesets.

[arctic epoch]

Clawline superior to Sherma:)

[silver nacelle]

Hey, they're gonna have to do it somehow.

[silver nacelle]

... Acceptable.

[jade copper]

i got hunter and reaper

[untold dune]

what tools do you have?

[silver nacelle]

Moorwing doesn't know how to fight something at the same level as it. Only above or below.

Beast crest's pogo is the only one that lets you attack at the same height.

[silver nacelle]

Beast crest is in hunter's marsh.

[jade copper]

me? ehe a throw knife and the knife ball u cat put in air or any where

[arctic epoch]

I mean a reaper crest can do the same, but slower

[tidal osprey]

do people typically dislike fighting bosses? because i find them extremely enjoyable in silksong but not as much in hollow knight i think its because we have waaaay more options and way better move style than HK what do yall think

[jade copper]

idk where is that

[silver nacelle]

No. Reaper's crest requires you be above the enemy. Beast is straight up horizontal sometimes.

[crisp thicket]

but you have to fight a really annoying boss to get it

[silver nacelle]

Right of marrow, I believe.

[arctic epoch]

Im pretty sure the hitbox can be pogoed off Moorwing sideway

[untold dune]

a good way to deal damage to moorwing is to jump then slash, you can often get 2 slashes in before touching the ground

[old island]

must use clawline

[rigid anvil]

I've read enough. Now fight broodmother and groal at the same time

[silver nacelle]

Perhaps with significantly more effort.

[untold dune]

silksong bosses are way more enjoyable on average than hollow knight bosses imo

[silver nacelle]

It also lets you hit those flying dudes from afar and get close to them in one move.

[arctic epoch]

I enjoy POP, that should explain it

[tidal osprey]

ikr

[silver nacelle]

😔

[mental topaz]

You got assistance from Garmond?

[jade copper]

assistance?

[crisp thicket]

Try finding a guy with a mustache, he can help you in battle

[silver nacelle]

It's below greymoore and above deep docks.

[keen mason]

who else silking their songs rn?

[silver nacelle]

It somehow does.

[old island]

beat ant dude

[jade copper]

the person who wanted to sleep?

[mental topaz]

An NPC in greymoor can help you in the fight

[keen mason]

yes

[crisp thicket]

If he has a mustache then it's probably him

[jade copper]

the sleeping dude silksongs zolt

[jade copper]

i did talk to him he did nothing he wanted to sleep

[keen mason]

sensiemooo

[untold dune]

talk to him again

[crisp thicket]

Try talking to him again

[keen mason]

TROBIOOOO

[jade copper]

dang he is far ok ig

[crisp thicket]

one could say he's... pharloom

[jade copper]

its just i am so close to defeating that thing but it somehow kills me

[placid sequoia]

Where do I get silksoar?

[silver nacelle]

You could also avoid fighting Moorwing by just doing the fleas quest and moving with them.

[untold dune]

moorwing is just a very tough early game boss

they had to nerf his ass

[keen mason]

agreed

[silver nacelle]

Le void.

[placid sequoia]

Le Void?

[silver nacelle]

Le abyss.

[placid sequoia]

Bleh, o guess I'll let the knight guide me again

[crisp thicket]

That works but then when the fleas leave you'll have to fight it either way (if you want quick access to bellheart from grey moor which is useless)

[keen mason]

you know that thing gets voided in act 3 if you dont beat it

[untold dune]

yeah lol

[jade copper]

do i get anything for defeating that?

[crisp thicket]

it does?

[crisp thicket]

Access to Bellhart

[jade copper]

he is not there tf

[keen mason]

the satisfaction of coming over one of the hardest boss in act 1

[crisp thicket]

Try talking to him at the room before the boss

[silver nacelle]

No. Moorwing moves to an area where you can walk past him.

[crisp thicket]

oh

[jade copper]

that mf is not hard his move set is easy asf it just somhow kills me in the end my move set is shi lwk

[silver nacelle]

Beast shard, maybe. He just opens the door to bellhart if you don't do the flea quest.

[jade copper]

there is no room?

[crisp thicket]

?????

[keen mason]

i mean this is the nerfed version it was harder pre patch

[untold dune]

like game room, not interior

[jade copper]

what room

wait

[crisp thicket]

I don't mean an interior, I meant room as in scenario

[silver nacelle]

I know that because that's what happened to me.

I didn't even know he existed for a while because I did the flea quest before meeting him.

[keen mason]

what nerf did they give moorwing again? i cant seem to remember

[crisp thicket]

Took off his wings

[silver nacelle]

Saw blades do only one dmg.

[jade copper]

yeah idk what that means sorry i just started playing it yesterday

[untold dune]

half health and sawblades one dmg

[keen mason]

HALF HEALTH?

damn they nerfed him hard

[placid sequoia]

Huge

[jade copper]

wait is it nerfed?

[untold dune]

that bitch needed like 5 staggers before its more than fair

[crisp thicket]

Explosive nerf

[jade copper]

guys pls tel me do i need to find that guy for help?

[untold dune]

the damage modifiers now lmao

[keen mason]

ahh

[placid sequoia]

Is silksong mobile (Chinese port) a taboo to talk about in here?

[jade copper]

is there no bench close to moorwing? i have to travel alot to get back to him

[keen mason]

yes early days of release that thing legit took 20 minutes to kill because of how tanky it was

[untold dune]

he should just be here

[crisp thicket]

What is that supposed to be?

[silver nacelle]

I feel like some people are desensitized to unbalanced stuff so much that they just complain for no reason sometimes.

I've been seeing ppl complain about the threadstorm nerf when the spell (with volt shaman) could 4 shot second sentinel.

3 shot with 2 needle hits.

[keen mason]

not seen how much effect the nerf had i will see when i do a second playthrough

[normal token]

No one really cares if you bring up the unofficial mobile port

[keen mason]

needle damage per upgrade

[crisp thicket]

Ok

[untold dune]

the multiplicate damage per needle upgrade, every enemy in the game has this

[keen mason]

multiplier i mean

[placid sequoia]

Oh okay 🙂

[grand adder]

They done nerfed him. But GOD DAMN. Groal the asshole is damn hard

[keen mason]

do these apply to spells?

[crisp thicket]

So you're telling me if I max out my nail (which is supposed to be 21 damage) it's actually not 21 damage?

[untold dune]

probably

[silver nacelle]

Is that why some of my needle upgrades didn't let me one shot some smaller enemies???

[untold dune]

yeah lol

[silver nacelle]

No. Some enemies have it. Some don't. It's weird.

[grand adder]

Thank god i didnt go to bone bottom🙏 . Hes safe now

[keen mason]

instead of buffing bosses hp with nail upgrade (like in previous game) they add these modifiers

[silver topaz]

Dies anyways

[keen mason]

bapanada

[silver topaz]

Babagundala

[proper lily]

I think they get voided in act 3

[grand adder]

Atleast uh. I dont uh i uh i umm i err i saved him

[pliant sedge]

If he dies offscreen then he never dies. Like quirrel

[proper lily]

TROBBIOOO

[keen mason]

TROBBIOOOO

[crisp thicket]

I think they get mugged in act 3

[grand adder]

That the green neck

[grand adder]

Now thats a mushroom green neck

[proper lily]

The greeeeeeeen prince

[grand adder]

No. Thats the green neck

[silver topaz]

GREEN PEEN

[keen mason]

TROBBIOOOOOO

[placid sequoia]

The green prince?

Wasn't He Homo?

[proper lily]

Yes

[misty vine]

I think you mean the Grince Prince

[silver topaz]

Gay hearts

[placid sequoia]

Lol

[cobalt jungle]

Uhh

[proper lily]

That's one way to say Kingdom hearts

[grand adder]

We got the gay hearts. The genghis khan heart. An ant heart. And a flower petal

[gloomy fjord]

Why does it sound like someone is walking through 1 meter of snow

[placid sequoia]

Trobbio is a bad boss

[proper lily]

Liar LIAR LIARRRRR

[grand adder]

Just say you suck

[placid sequoia]

Ragebait success 🙂

Jk only Khan rlly sucks

[untold dune]

have you considered palestag

[placid sequoia]

Khan so ez ngl

[grand adder]

Khan is easier than raging

[placid sequoia]

Das why he sucks

[proper lily]

Broodmother:

[untold dune]

khan is a gimmick boss but its a fun gimmick

[gloomy fjord]

Palestag truly the worst boss

[grand adder]

Always these guys thats called a really strong ruler thats easier than a random ass fly that spawns minions at the hunter march

[placid sequoia]

Palestag? I refuse to even mention that terrible horror

[proper lily]

I like it. It looks regal and feels relaxing fighting it

[untold dune]

team cherry knew they fucked up with palestag so they made it optional for verdania

[gloomy fjord]

Still an absolutely dogshit boss if it can be called that

[placid sequoia]

I rage quit 5 times before I beat that thing

[grand adder]

I havent fought palestag but i shallnt fight it. But damn. Groal needs some massive nerf fr fr

[plucky onyx]

[untold dune]

nah groal is sufficiently hard

[grand adder]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-dance-dancing-hornet-vessel-gif-26044531

[placid sequoia]

Groal The Sucker?

[grand adder]

Groal the asshole

[proper lily]

Goal the gay

[placid sequoia]

Heheh

[untold dune]

moorwing needed the nerf because its an area fluff boss and was unbalanaced, groal is intentionally difficult in an intentionally difficult area

[grand adder]

Now that i have architect crest. Im gonna use it on him and him only

[placid sequoia]

Weavers are idiots change my mind 🙂

[grand adder]

Nah. Thats just facts

[dense kite]

No need, ur right

[proper lily]

Lost sinner is one of my fav fights in the whole franchise

[marsh spoke]

groal only has 650 health he's easily meltable

[grand adder]

Dumber than a fuckin rock

[placid sequoia]

Mmm

[proper lily]

First sinner*

[misty vine]

Just sit in the corner and Wispflame Lantern his ass

[grand adder]

The humble muckmaggots infested waters and minions and his stupid ass attacks and runbacks

[placid sequoia]

I wonder What Ava Looks Like Without Her Shell, Is She Just Silk Given Form Or??

[grand adder]

Ig so

[untold dune]

bell beast is like an armadillo right?

[marsh spoke]

curveclaw and voltvessels melt him

[proper lily]

No lol it's an isopod

[grand adder]

When i first fought widow i was like "damn hope i aint gonna fight another widow.) I was wrong

[untold dune]

ah i see

[wary nymph]

I just defeated Bell beast

[placid sequoia]

Wanderer Or Reaper? Pick One

[grand adder]

But eh. First sinner is basically widow just the spam of tps

[proper lily]

Wanderer

[hallow panther]

Beast

[grand adder]

Ill stay with reaper forever and ever

[placid sequoia]

Ew

[grand adder]

Im only using architect for groal the asshole

[misty vine]

Reaper easily

[proper lily]

Beast, hunter, wanderer best crests imo

[hallow panther]

fr

[misty vine]

Wanderer sucks and Reaper is tied for best crest

[placid sequoia]

Why beast

Beast sucks

[grand adder]

For me. Its witch,architect and my beloved reaper crest

[hallow panther]

Probably skill issue /j

[placid sequoia]

It's been 7 years

[misty vine]

Yeah Reaper and Architect are the two best crests for sure

[untold dune]

crest discourse again 🥀

[placid sequoia]

But I still can't find a pure vessel reskin for the og hk

[arctic epoch]

Not a fucking crest discourse again 😭 i was gone for 10 minuted

[proper lily]

It can do some insane dps because you get a huge damage boost when binding.
If you combine it with animation canceling with your clawline you can melt most bosses in the game

[grand adder]

Funny how im in act 3 but im not even close to the true ending for hk

I saw silksong and said fuck it. We ball and downloaded silksong

[untold dune]

beating silksong will make hk way easier tbh, def go back to that once ur done

[proper lily]

Witch is fun I just never really got the hang of it

[placid sequoia]

I'm still lost in the forgotten crossroads

[formal trench]

Can someone help me to access more areas in silksong in vc?

[grand adder]

It happens to the best of us

[summer ridge]

best beast crest build..😭?

[gloomy fjord]

Oh my god. Yes! Reaper the goat!

[untold dune]

ive been playing on crest shuffler mod to force myself to get good with all crests

[placid sequoia]

True

[whole moon]

I think I know why gms resisted the void so hard (other than because she wanted to save lace), shes in the physical realm and she can make silk and solid strings to like build stuff and just resist the void, the radiance didn’t have that advantage as she never had a physical body to begin with, and she couldn’t create silk to resist anything

[arctic epoch]

Sawtooth circlet
Barbed bracelets + Dice
Flint slate
Cross Stitch

[hallow panther]

But I must confess, there are times where beast crest just can’t find a good opening to mash keys unless you know the insane techs very well

[summer ridge]

why cross stitch if im just gonna be a facetank

[grand adder]

Radiance is a fuckin coward

[proper lily]

I run Flint slate, flea brew for red slots
Silk speed anklets and clinger for yellow
Trobbio mirror or Quick bind for vesticrest

[whole moon]

She just gave up

[grand adder]

How about architect crest?

[placid sequoia]

Or Shaman Crest?

[summer ridge]

bro has 3 blue slots on beast😭

[grand adder]

No like. When she tped to like how high idk

[untold dune]

gets criticized once
dies

[whole moon]

Yea ik

[grand adder]

Shes a total coward

Look at gms. She didnt run like a GOD DAMN coward

[whole moon]

Gms was like “run that shit back”

[proper lily]

Silk speed anklets is a yellow tool and clingers grip is also yellow. You can also get an extra blue slot for all crests in weavenest atla

[summer ridge]

why did you list me 3 blue toolls

[grand adder]

Silkspeed anklets is just not for me ngl

[untold dune]

i only use it for rasher, otherwise it messes with my flow and timing

[proper lily]

I didn't I listed 2 yellow 2 red and 1 blue tool

[placid sequoia]

Pale King Or GMS?

[graceful pumice]

silkspeed anklets 🤤

[grand adder]

Bro. My fyp is anything but silksong

[coarse leaf]

I want to kill myself bro

[grand adder]

We need to forgive him for judging him too soon.

[placid sequoia]

Don't

[hallow panther]

[A] Bind

[placid sequoia]

Just attempt p5 on HK with every binding and hitless

[coarse leaf]

I don’t have enough silk

[proper lily]

Best yellow tool imo

[grand adder]

Best architect crest build?

[placid sequoia]

Just ask hornet for help

[coarse leaf]

I made it to lms in forsaken and died cause i couldn’t land any backstabs

[grand adder]

The humble magnetite dice

[proper lily]

Too inconsistent, but it's def a close 2nd for me

[oak dragon]

Guys I know this isn't HK but this was in my schools weekly slides

[untold dune]

true instead of being random, dice should just shield you from all attacks

[grand adder]

We all have our own opinion. Exceot for beast crest. Theyre blasphemous

[rocky mirage]

cogflies, voltvessels, tacks.

[grand adder]

Thats just too op

[hallow panther]

They’re beastly

[grand adder]

Blue tools and yellow tools? I aint doing vesti crest

[compact robin]

ngl beast crest is just very fun

[placid sequoia]

Would you be better if you come back to silksong (or hk) after playing blasphemous for a few weeks?

[rocky mirage]

beast crest is goated

[grand adder]

Blasphemy

[desert grotto]

My favourite Silksong character

[placid sequoia]

Nope

[compact robin]

Who cares about optimal when fury mode go brrrrrrrr

[indigo eagle]

If y’all chose a potential DLC concept to be added which one would you choose

[grand adder]

Everyone here who likes beast crest are blasphemoud

[grand adder]

Steel city has a high chance

[hallow panther]

K

[compact robin]

can we have coral tower finished

[graceful pumice]

shakra dating simulator

[placid sequoia]

Pantheon Of Pharloom

[untold dune]

city of steel (please just tie up all your loose ends tc i beg you)

[proper lily]

For red slots I run cogflies, tacs, sting shard
For blue I run Polyp pouch and the extra heal crest
For yellow I run dice and anklets
And for vesticrest you can run whatever really, but I like to use the pinstress crest because heavy attacks on architect are busted

[grand adder]

Thats just obvious

[placid sequoia]

Sherma DLC

[graceful pumice]

GIVE ME MY YURI

[desert grotto]

I don't really mind as long as we get a boss rush dlc at the end

[grand adder]

Multibinder?

[proper lily]

Yeah the item you get from 2nd Sentinel

[desert grotto]

Woe, doomed bug yoai be upon ye

[grand adder]

Pinsterss crest?

[placid sequoia]

Is the white lady and greyroot the same species? (￣ヘ￣）ᴴᴹᴹ

[gaunt sigil]

How many phase lost lace have?

[grand adder]

Aint multibinder from that bellhart merchant

[placid sequoia]

3-4 I think

[oak dragon]

Guys Seth is exploding me to smithereens

[gaunt sigil]

Dawg, when the void water rises and gms lying down , what phase is it?

[compact robin]

1- just normal with a touch of emo
2- more emo
3- adrenaline
4- why is there 5?-

[proper lily]

No I meant the other crest it's called Reserve Bind

[compact robin]

3

[placid sequoia]

How short would act 1 be if we have access to silk soar from the get go? Cuz ik u guys will have skips

[gaunt sigil]

Aight

[desert grotto]

😭

[compact robin]

4 is when she does the 5 circles at the same time
Do NOT stand close to her when she slams after

[gaunt sigil]

Ohh yea i already there

[oak dragon]

I saw a video of a guy speedrunning where he gets all abilities from the start just try and find it

[lunar notch]

Savage beastfly

[gaunt sigil]

so close I almost won and then my electricity went out

[compact robin]

Savage beastfly 1 is harder than 2 based on when you fight them tbh

[proper lily]

Can both savage beast flies be voided?

[compact robin]

That's
A very good question

[placid sequoia]

Nope

Idts

[hallow panther]

I know the second one can

[silent mural]

so the knight in silksong mod dropped already?

[grand adder]

Oh

[storm basin]

i think you need beast crest for act 3

[compact robin]

If the first one can be voided it might
Somehow
Be easier and harder at the same time

[storm basin]

oh ok

[silver topaz]

Froggit

[compact robin]

Easier because you can get an easy attack where the beastfly stalls in place
Harder because the enemies can get voided too and they take too long to kill

[storm basin]

3 voided flying enemies x voided beastfly

[grand adder]

Hm. Is reserve bind an important thing for the build or i could just change it with shit like uh whispfire lantern

[gaunt sigil]

What happened after i finished act 3? Did everything back to normal?

[hallow panther]

The only thing they didn’t do is placing it in bilewater

[oak dragon]

Idk

[silver topaz]

Reserve bind has a slight delay before use

[north ore]

btw yall

what are the thresholds for Eva to give you new shit

[storm basin]

mucked voided primal beastfly ❤️‍🩹

[grand adder]

Cuz uh. Im too lazy to fight the 2nd sentinel

[proper lily]

whispfire is also good, but it drains your silk so fast. The reason you wanna run reserve bind is so you could always have a free repair ready if you're out of tools

[grand adder]

Hunter crest upgrade or vesticrest?

[silver topaz]

Pluh

[grand adder]

Hm i see. Im too lazy to fight 2nd sentinel but ill think abt it

[north ore]

Hunter upgrade, and both vesticrests

I wanna know how I get each of em

[silver topaz]

https://tenor.com/view/pluh-cat-cat-eating-cat-spitting-gif-455338884089848706

[proper lily]

Maybe you could do weave light then?

[silver topaz]

I’m famished

[compact robin]

Oh yea how do you even get vesticrest

[north ore]

eat pickled muckmaggot

[grand adder]

For vesticrest you need 22 of tools slot on crest if im correct

[compact robin]

Fuck

[cedar sinew]

Me and hornet need to get nerfed ✌️😂

[hallow panther]

Depends on the number of tool slots unlocked, including ones unlocked by default on each crest

[grand adder]

Its alright. Locations tutorial exist

[vagrant ingot]

can i skip elegy of the deep animation, the runback to carmelita is insane

[north ore]

damn

ty Trobbobobbo

[grand adder]

Btw you only need 18 fkr the yellow vesticreet slot if you want both you need 22

[north ore]

damn

what abt hunter upgrade?

[vagrant ingot]

it's not a lot

[grand adder]

That one. I habe no idea.

[proper lily]

WAIT I REMEMBER YOU CAN RUN QUICK SLING

[vagrant ingot]

you can find all memory locket easily anyway

[placid sequoia]

Guys, I haven't finished the game yet but I want to ask y'all, is silksong worth it?

[grand adder]

I dont use hunter at all the second i got reaper

[north ore]

wait so its not even directly tied to number of crests unlocked, its number of tool slots unlocked

[vagrant ingot]

no i spent too much time

[grand adder]

How did i not know that shit exist

[hallow panther]

Yes

[proper lily]

I forgot about it too lol. I don't really use tools

[north ore]

Trobbio if you wanna stop being Tormented maybe stop using reaper

[hallow panther]

You just indirectly “unlock” more tool slots by finding crests

[grand adder]

20 dollars for contents worth morr than 20 dollars? Hell yeah

[proper lily]

Reaper hate in the big late '25

[sharp egret]

guys what am i missing

[north ore]

all the downsides of witch with none of the benefits

[grand adder]

Nah bro. Reaper pogo is just too good

[placid sequoia]

Mmhmm

[proper lily]

Witch is a late game crest while reaper is an early game crest that is great against most act 1 bosses

[grand adder]

If i use hunter crest. I wouldve gone crazy in hunter march

[gusty basin]

both are my mains

[proper lily]

Hunter's crest carried me through Hunter's March without dash ngl

[north ore]

giving up the atk speed and pogo range of hunter, for a bind ability, which youre unlikely to even care about

[hallow panther]

If they make the on-hit silk blebs from the reaper crest bind gravitate even slowly toward you it’d be much better

[grand adder]

Up up. Pogo. Dknt forget abt the pogo. And lets be fr we all get hit too much to even get the benefit of hunters crest

[north ore]

thatd boost my opinion of it all the way to hunter level

[proper lily]

Hunter takes a while to get the hang of so reaper is more like backup option for players

[buoyant meteor]

whenever id use reaper crest id not really get any of the silk blobs so i didnt really get the benefit of that

[north ore]

could just be me but by the time I got reaper on ma first play I was already used to hunter, so the change just threw me off even more

like wdym my pogo range is gone

[proper lily]

You get a wider but shorter pogo. So I think it's a fair trade off

[grand adder]

Im gonna try architect. And if its good. It might be my new main crest. I have like hunter reaper and architect crest only lol. Im too lazy to get the other crest. Imma get witch crest after

[karmic trail]

obviously the savage beastfly will be a cakewalk for act 2. you have 8 masks, for starter. Then you have broken tools like longclaw, and a 2nd tier needle. But also I guess rng worked well for me, no vicious caranid both(or 3?) times.

[hallow panther]

That’s the uniqueness of the crest they try to achieve, to get more silk with less hits

But they miss the spot just by that much

[sharp egret]

uhhh what am i missing

[proper lily]

Architect takes a ton of farming for shards cause you burn through them faster than Nicocado Avocado burns through takis

[karmic trail]

Which doesn't sound impressive. But the stock unter crest is 200px (at 1080p), and the longclaw reaper is 290. Which sound not too crazy, but do the math and that is extra 50%. which is indeed very large.

[indigo eagle]

TC if you add Prime Phantom boss and buffed GMS i’ll donate my wallet

[proper lily]

Pure Phantom

[grand adder]

Its alr. Imma just use thiefs mark and just grind and grind and grind and grind rosaries and pile my shard bundles like ive never seen the light

[indigo eagle]

oh also please add a battle royale this game is way too boring without it

[sharp egret]

[raven mountain]

[buoyant meteor]

hk battle royale

[north ore]

I can tell youre joking but this icked me

[untold coral]

Shut up, Hornet. Stop being a kuudere.

[proper lily]

What the fuck is a kundara

[steep wadi]

a what

[buoyant meteor]

it’s a Japanese character type with no emotion

[grand adder]

Ngl. If anyone breaks the hornet statue or the friendship bracelet i call it. They will be shamed

[proper lily]

No mind to think?

[sharp egret]

what am i missing

[mental topaz]

There's a friendship bracelet?

[normal token]

After 4 playthroughs I must say this is the worst game I ever played

[grand adder]

https://tenor.com/view/pure-vessel-hollow-knight-gif-8691405304708562462

[grand adder]

Aka hornet statue

[untold coral]

cold outside, warm inside

at least that's what I think

[proper lily]

I had the urge to use it right in front of the builder just to see if he has any extra dialogue for doing that, but I changed my mind

[north ore]

is it just me or are the peenar snipper guys in Greymoor actually rly fun to fight

[grand adder]

Thats just you bro

[grand adder]

We owe pale king some apologizing

[mental topaz]

Weavelight and memory crystal

[untold coral]

It's not worth it, trust me, I've played over 10 different save files. I have experience.

[proper lily]

Peener snipper dudes and the skarr warriors or whatever they're called are one of my fav act 1 enemies

[ancient cradle]

ofc ya'll do

[grand adder]

WHY IS THE QUICK SLING IN "VILE"WATER

[proper lily]

You were hammering those benches good

[ancient cradle]

https://tenor.com/view/pale-king-hollow-knight-gun-gif-27385612

[untold coral]

I never blamed him, I love him, he's handsome

Like a short twink

[proper lily]

Cause
It's funny

[grand adder]

WHY IS EVERYTHING GOOD IN VILEWATER

[buoyant meteor]

they pulled a deepnest move with the fake bench in bilewater

[ancient cradle]

i loved all my children

[proper lily]

Cause

It's funny

[ancient cradle]

i had no choice

[untold coral]

Deepnest fake bench is still technically real, you just get teleported

[hoary bronze]

How do you possibly kill this creature

[sharp egret]

where are they

[grand adder]

When i saw the fake bench i was like."This shit definitely gonna fall cuz that shit looks 10000 yrs old"

[ancient cradle]

https://tenor.com/view/pale-king-hollow-knight-pale-king-picmix-hollow-knight-picmix-conditionercat-gif-4864131921420945817

[mental topaz]

Weavenest atla and mount fay

[proper lily]

I think you can parry the bombs if I'm not mistaken

[indigo eagle]

Silkmaster DLC will be crazy

[untold coral]

They're the actual final bosses of this game.

[hoary bronze]

Well yea but how to kill them

[grand adder]

You got every tools and you dont know those two exist?

[north ore]

the temporary debuff in exchange for the tool slots for Eva

here we go again chat

[sharp egret]

idk probably got passed

[grand adder]

WHY ARE YOU PLAYING ON MOBILE IS A BETTER QUESTION

[hoary bronze]

Nuh uh

[proper lily]

Parry bomb, wait for it to explode, get close and get 2 or 3 hits in, back up, repeat

[sharp egret]

btw i been mount fay for like 2000 times

is it in that secret room

[north ore]

ngl another way to improve reaper would be remove the bind effect and just give it 2x silk from attacks

[grand adder]

How do you not see the breakable wall next to the bench that cost rosaries

[cunning coral]

EVEN BETTER QUESTION HOW IS HE PLAYING ON MOBILE

[mental topaz]

Which secret room
Memory crystal is somewhere near the far left bench, there's a hidden spot nearby

[cunning coral]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-grimm-grimm-hollow-knight-chicken-sandwich-gif-12915868752568379252

[hoary bronze]

Well that would be good if they didn't go background everytime they get hit by bombs

[patent kestrel]

Thats the thing. you don't

[proper lily]

Or have your damage scale up the more silk you have

[hallow panther]

That’d have a bit too much parallel with beast

[mental topaz]

Hey thanks new alarm

[cunning coral]

Absolute peak🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

:kn

[delicate matrix]

How Hornet heard it

[grand adder]

https://tenor.com/view/godzilla-singular-point-godzilla-prowler-meme-godzilla-ultima-gif-1731548497299137065

[proper lily]

They get stunned for a second before they start attacking if I remember correctly

[delicate matrix]

which mobile port

[cunning coral]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-hornet-hollow-knight-silk-song-gif-3602449200779206131

[patent kestrel]

Reapers bind is alright but tgey should make it that the silk orbs sink down so tgey are easier to get

[delicate matrix]

*lesbian

[grand adder]

I aint no roblox expert. But pretty sure none of these are related to tormented

[proper lily]

There's a HK and silk song mobile port you can download off of a certain discord I forgot the name of

[cunning coral]

Lol

[delicate matrix]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-floppy-hornet-slap-nuu-gif-11086988873395759079

[grand adder]

Why do people even ship hornet with lace ngl

[cunning coral]

Never knew

[hoary bronze]

I wish they get stunned but they literally go into background for a second so you can't hit them

[north ore]

back in my comfort zone

[delicate matrix]

did you miss the 12 hour sesbian lex scene

[patent kestrel]

They're sisters not lovers

[proper lily]

Yeah they should be shipping Grimm and Trobbio smh

[north ore]

dont mind druid's eye its my only blue tool atm

[hoary bronze]

No idea

[cunning coral]

https://tenor.com/view/sherma-silksong-absolute-cinema-gif-774649724514166125

[grand adder]

Alright wtf

[delicate matrix]

https://tenor.com/view/bread-calling-gif-5658603089573858074

[grand adder]

The thing is. Lace is made of silk

[north ore]

https://tenor.com/view/shakra-hornet-silksong-hollow-knight-gif-6788199416628803555

[proper lily]

Lace is GMS's "daughter" And Hornet is pale King's daughter. Neither of them are related

[cunning coral]

Lace's mother is GMS and i forgot Hornet's mothers nane but she is one of the dreamers

[hallow panther]

Pharloom sorority

[patent kestrel]

I said relationship wise not lorewise I know the lore dawg

[grand adder]

Hornet is a spider who "can" manipulate silk in healing attacking and transportation

[proper lily]

Oh mb

[north ore]

ngl what even is GMS

I feel like Im allowed to know since Ive beat her now

[delicate matrix]

https://tenor.com/view/bread-cat-gif-23507304

[patent kestrel]

I meant they have a sisterly bond

[grand adder]

Relationship wise is friends

[warped cobalt]

Lowk just waiting on that mossbag video

[proper lily]

I think she's pale being I'm not sure tho

[clever radish]

A pale being that has spider like qualities

[patent kestrel]

Fair enough

[grand adder]

Dawg. Just say they have a bond

[clever radish]

and rules pharloom

[delicate matrix]

we killed him he is dead

[warped cobalt]

ohhhh ok awesome

[patent kestrel]

Pale being that can convert soul into silk ig

[north ore]

I gather that she's a higher being made of silk

what I dont gather is how or why she came to exist

[graceful pumice]

because its not good at all
