Come back in 2 years

[drifting kelp]

Nah dont put that hope on me… im assuming 7 years

[light swan]

agreed, they dont have to be small but just encouraging and involving movement makes them awesome

here’s my seth hitless btw

[glacial sequoia]

Not silksong but, sly was so underrated

[open narwhal]

hkmain...

[drifting kelp]

huh... I actually think this might be the only boss I'd have an easier time with on witch

[sharp slate]

Cursed crest interacts insanely weird with shellwood enemies

[drifting kelp]

simply because triple explode dash is so abusable

[sharp slate]

it seems to have some type of weird iframe or damage prevention after bind, idk so fricken odd

[light swan]

witch is known for burst damage and bosses like these are the biggest receivers of burst damage

[pure nebula]

Best couple

[light swan]

but you can still definitely have success on other crests too

[drifting kelp]

a ton of my failures are just fucked up spacing on wanderer's lmao

[plucky stag]

all because i misread it once and just never corrected it

[drifting kelp]

not having to space might work out

[orchid locust]

fazbear phial

[drifting kelp]

wait you can whack him out of his hunter pogo wtf

[light swan]

yea if you know hes gonna do it then you just need to jump before he appears

[drifting kelp]

can you interrupt his guaranteed phase 2 start for that O.O

[sharp slate]

This is so weird

a single tick of damage from the flower guy

[light swan]

its not interupting, youre just hitting him while hes doing it

[orchid locust]

wait what since when do they do 1 damage

[drifting kelp]

ah I thought you could interupt it for some reason

[sharp slate]

they dont something weird is interacting with the bind

I can't stop hearing "HEGALE" and "SHAW"

[drifting kelp]

So whos the best NPC other than Sherma?

[astral flare]

Just went through lower deep docks on my second playthrough, it was absolutely hell last time in act 3 but in act 2 I really enjoyed it

Go back to me when I was first exploring it and i wouldve described it as a hellscape

[drifting kelp]

you mean the stuff below the simple key?

[astral flare]

Yupp

I didn't find any of that till act 3 the first time round

[light swan]

second sentinel
caretaker

[mint bison]

shakra

[glacial kelp]

oyyy ahoyyy

[light swan]

does lace count shes my favorite character

[drifting kelp]

Sure, but caretaker? the cowardly snail?

[plucky stag]

they perfectly recreated the feeling of hearing corifer's voice and running towards it in this game

[agile stone]

Flik the fixer

[mint bison]

Sentinel and Lace are also up there

[light swan]

hes cute

[plucky stag]

when you're just running around in circles, hearing shakra singing makes you immediately start dashing in that direction

[candid kayak]

POV: you're trying to talk to sherma

unsolicited friend request...

[plucky stag]

captain of a ship

[drifting kelp]

Ayy Lai Lai is more comforting. Cornifer is goofy

[plucky stag]

i also like how they didn't make shakra the sole source for maps

[drifting kelp]

yeah I really like that too

[candid kayak]

unsolicited friend request from someone who has never spoken in this server

yeah I don't think so

[light swan]

i was kinda disappointed they just made another mapmaker so its nice that maps are different in the citadel and other places

[plucky stag]

it'd be silly to have her map every single area of the game, so they made maps available from other sources

[drifting kelp]

??? I love the mapmakers.

[light swan]

the game kinda started off feeling like "they took every hallownest npc and made them different"

i could map every hk npc to a ss npc at first

of course thats not the case but thats how it felt when i was starting the game

[mint bison]

who would zote be

[drifting kelp]

Shakra and Cornifer feel so different feelingwise though

[candid kayak]

so what are you assigning elderbug to both chapel maid and pilby?

[light swan]

but theyre still the same function and therefore the same npc

[candid kayak]

[light swan]

of course theres gonna be a relic seeker of course thres gonna be a weapon upgrader of course theres gonna be a nail art person

again, this waso nly how i felt AT THE BEGINNING of the game lol

[candid kayak]

I'd say it's much less so the NPCs that are similar

and more so the upgrades

[light swan]

its their functions

their purpsoe for existing

chapel maid kinda never existed anyway i forgot they happened by the time i got to bone bottom

[candid kayak]

which works fine, because I do expect upgrades to come in a logical order, especially as I played and saw ways I couldn't go yet until I obviously obtained a wall grab or a double jump

[plucky stag]

i found the quest system reminiscent of the zelda games

[drifting kelp]

I mean, upgrade dude/dudette and map maker is a working formula I don't think they should change lol

[plucky stag]

imagine though if they implemented the needolin similar to link's ocarina

[candid kayak]

yeah it's just logic

[light swan]

omg that was the word i was missing, formula

[plucky stag]

where you had to play the notes yourself to trigger certain events

[candid kayak]

the same formula yes

[light swan]

the early game just had the same exact formula to it

[candid kayak]

honestly that's a good thing in a way, eases familiar players into a new setting

[light swan]

yea i dont really think its a bad thing

it just... felt a bit too similar tbh

[candid kayak]

tried and true early game flow

[drifting kelp]

They took away my pogo 🙁

gave me this weird pythagorean theorem crap

[candid kayak]

me when I turn on nail randomizer

[drifting kelp]

[candid kayak]

speaking of which, where does hk randomizer seed all the extra stuff

[cobalt pilot]

[drifting kelp]

I wonder if there's a mod where every time you leave a room it switches your crest

[obsidian shell]

i'm cursed, i keep on stubbing my toe

my toe is still throbbing

[jolly bridge]

then uhhh

uhhhhh

uhhhhhh

eat it

[drifting kelp]

Would be big funny

[obsidian shell]

that's cannibalism

[jolly bridge]

wjats the problem there

[obsidian shell]

probably the part where theres cannibalism

[jolly bridge]

https://tenor.com/view/frog-frog-laughing-gif-25708743

[drifting kelp]

I refuse to believe eating my own flesh is cannibalism... Considering how often I rip part of my lip skin off

[soft lake]

Skin isn't flesh

[obsidian shell]

it is an organ tho so techinically its cannibalism

[obsidian shell]

yes

[candid kayak]

"BITCH I WAS GONNA EAT THAT"

[light swan]

don’t forget that in addition to the pythagorean theorem, you need to find the wave function of the target in order to accurately predict WHEN it will precisely line up with your triangles

[tidal agate]

How

[agile stone]

so anyway just lost my first steel soul run to bell beast, genuinely hate that thing

[mint bison]

the ass part ig

[candid kayak]

me when I jump

[tidal agate]

I love that part

[obsidian shell]

i love bell beast 🔔 ❤️

[candid kayak]

I thought the jim part was harder tbh

[tidal agate]

When he shoves his ass in your face

[mint bison]

lace's hitbox is smaller and her entire fight is a heal window

[astral dagger]

100% completion should let you change hornets dress to this one

[drifting kelp]

This is what waiting for dlc does to HK players I guess

[mint bison]

itd be cool if there was a newgame+ like sm other games

[agile stone]

if he's gonna attack me after I let him out of the silk he was stuck in he's not allowed to be my dog

[obsidian shell]

fair enough

[astral dagger]

The silk has drugs in it

Was too drugged up to tell hornet was fren

[mint bison]

what if she jus wanted a hug and you beat it with a needle

[tropic compass]

I just got the area damage spell now what do i do

[mint bison]

rune rage?

[tropic compass]

Sinners Road?

[light swan]

its fun i swear

[candid kayak]

explore

[agile stone]

but what if I did?

[candid kayak]

just explore, there's more than one path forwards

[astral dagger]

Silksong is worth $65

[mint bison]

thats lore accurate so yea

you did

[candid kayak]

I'd rather not

[astral dagger]

Not what
Capitalism

[candid kayak]

I like to apperciate nice things instead of wish they weren't nice

[light swan]

what do you guys think so far

[candid kayak]

lowercasism

[astral dagger]

At first I thought Sukuna was gonna wipe hornet

[drifting kelp]

I legitimately would rather learn linear algebra than do this

[candid kayak]

it's easy btw you just react to what you see

[astral dagger]

A^2+B^2=C^2
Then simply C^0.5 and done

[cobalt pilot]

Are there any songs you guys listen to that you associate with Hornet or second sentinel or sentinet the ship??

[light swan]

erm the ship is "sentinel"

combine the sentinel in "hornet sentinel" with the sentinel in "second sentinel"

[hollow yarrow]

does clawline count as "needle only"

[drifting kelp]

I count it

[cobalt pilot]

Duly noted ty

[astral dagger]

Only if the second attack doesn't hit

[obsidian shell]

i just had a stroke 👍

[light swan]

how do i further emphasize the connection between witch crest and sukuna

[astral dagger]

Because its second hit is hornet dropkicking the foe

[hollow yarrow]

oh true

[astral dagger]

You can cancel via using a jump

[hollow yarrow]

wait wdym i tried jumping and it still did 2 hits

[astral dagger]

Witch crest sealed away voiceover with finding lost child
Sukuna breaking a domain via slashes with escaping the chapel roots

[paper topaz]

What did I just read

[astral dagger]

"Sukuna was sealed away, never to see the light of day again... "

[drifting kelp]

these people really trying to expand the cult of witch crest

[obsidian shell]

what did u read?

[astral dagger]

"But an evil that great could not be contained, not forever"

[leaden delta]

this is fucked up silksong has real clip comps

[light swan]

only from me

[leaden delta]

you can make one of those now and it works because silksong has visual sauce and hype moments and aura

[paper topaz]

What

[leaden delta]

you could never do this in hk

[light swan]

only with witch crest :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[astral dagger]

Silksong needs the ultrakill parry flash for super (frame perfect) parries

[light swan]

does he break a domain with slashes in the anime so far? i only remember that being in the gojo fight

[astral dagger]

The one dude that's made of humanities fear of each other and warps souls when he accidentally touches Yuji

[supple acorn]

Im raging so hard right now on the fleatopia supplies bruh

[light swan]

i also dont know/remember what witch crest sealed away & finding lost child is

[astral dagger]

First encounter fight

[light swan]

OH i forgot about that

[astral dagger]

Lost child is sealed away in bilewater behind a ton of roots

You then bring em to Greyroot, get infected and sent to chapel of the witch

[light swan]

oh yea 😭 i never considered those sealed away & lost child

[paper topaz]

I call Grayroot gayroot

[astral dagger]

They're more commonly referred to as the twisted child but I use lost to avoid conflict with the ending name, though it may conflict with lace 3 encounter names

[light swan]

i call them my baby or twisted bud personally

[astral dagger]

"The demon that comes when you call its name"

=)

[mint bison]

ig cuz greay root shoves it into you. So you are basically pregnant

[paper topaz]

Call it a bad baby

[astral dagger]

Well
That immediately makes silksong mature rated due to sexual assault

[mint bison]

ig so

[light swan]

whats the challenge run

[obsidian shell]

nice job

[paper topaz]

You know that it happens in the game you get it done to you

[astral dagger]

You should be allowed to wear lace like a backpack after beating them the second time

[light swan]

ah, gl :D

[mint bison]

upgrade your crest 😭

why...

[astral dagger]

More storage
Deployable plushie

[mint bison]

jus strap the fat flea in your cloak

[astral dagger]

Too big
Lace weighs basically nothing

[atomic edge]

Ah ok

[astral dagger]

Lace while less fluffy is light enough to not interfere with platforming if carried

[candid nimbus]

is reaper creast objectively the worst creast in silk song? Now that i look back from my playthrough, i just realize how ass this creast actually is , it is actively hindering my game play and progression .

[astral dagger]

Reaper crest is one of the best crests for learning things

It isn't very good at specialized tasks, but learning to do them at all? Its amazing

[mint bison]

i tried it once and set it aside

[astral dagger]

Struggling with parkour? Reaper crest.

[mint bison]

its pogo carries imo

[candid nimbus]

amazing at what sluggish dps, moveset, alright passive actively useless in late game, and ok platforming

[mint bison]

i agree w everyything but the platforming part, what crest do you prefer

[astral dagger]

Struggling for enough silk? It generates more with heals
You won't win fights with it, but you'll stay alive long enough to learn em

[solemn goblet]

crestslop

mush mush

[candid nimbus]

wanderer is faster and more reliable like with reaper sure the chance of hitting the pogo object is better but it is so slow might miss and hit the spike instead

[astral dagger]

It is one of the first crests you get and its not meant to be amazing, its meant to be slow and teach you. If you have enough skill already you'll likely just keep running hunter

[solemn goblet]

i mean legit being that are not higher being but strong as fuckk earn my respect

[clear delta]

HOW would hornet and karmelita work bro logistically

[solemn goblet]

kiss

[astral dagger]

Same way pale king x white lady worked

[solemn goblet]

gay kissing

[astral dagger]

In terms of size difference

[candid nimbus]

and karmalita look way better than lace if you are a yuri atleast choose the better option

[solemn goblet]

how do you think great danes and chiluauas work

they just do

[clear delta]

Actially the memory shit was confusing me it can definitely work in the present day

I'm not even a shipper mane I just like to observe these things

[astral dagger]

I'm going for Skarrsinger Karmelita myself

[solemn goblet]

ive never slept on that its my fav one

[candid nimbus]

i forgot map mommy

[clear delta]

Hornet x shakra is close to being pretty perfect but shakra.would js. Die

[solemn goblet]

unfortunately shakra will die
lace wont because hornet would sustain her

[astral dagger]

Hornet x shakra but shakra is forced to undergo the whiteward surgeries

[void moat]

fuuuuhhhh embed fail

[clear delta]

The butler is an old guy this says nothing

[cursive torrent]

not to me

[vivid belfry]

Mergwin, there's a million old guys in silksong

[cursive torrent]

his master

[clear delta]

I think he's talking about Oldguy

[void moat]

long distance relationship, we know mask maker was able to request pale lacquer from all the way in mt fay so he can send letters via carrier mite

[clear delta]

Oldguy probably one of my favourite npcs

[vivid belfry]

Mergwin's master is called the grand gourmand

[clear delta]

I liked how old he was

[void moat]

great gourmand*

[cursive torrent]

ok yeah, mergwin x the great gourmand

[vivid belfry]

[clear delta]

Is the great gourmand even sentient

[void moat]

i ship moss druid x drugs

They look like it but the needolin dialogue is js MUCH EAT GOOD

someone needs to cave in and make a lost plasmified mucked beastfly fight

Ascended lugoli with no floor over muckmaggot water and all attacks and contact mucks

[subtle rain]

All this talk about pale stag
Watch pale stag not even make it into the pantheons

[void moat]

tc shouldve added a boss where you need to silk soar to do any damage

[candid nimbus]

oh tools exist

Also they make muckmaggots hp drain in the dlc

Finally finished my architect only run and very excited to start the witch only run

[clear delta]

Should huge flea make it into the pantheons

[reef scarab]

The dialogue is different if you beat widow before going into bellhart

[candid nimbus]

the pogo aint that bad but not supper practical

[orchid locust]

does hornet even have the option to drink anything other than alcohol it’s just flea brew and nectar right

[rich herald]

beast pogo rocks

[cursive torrent]

i think it's like sake to her, like that guy in sf6

[mint bison]

i tried it and i personally think it sucks, and then i see shit like this and it reminds me how ass i am

[clear delta]

Does hornet need to eat and drink

[fathom rapids]

Not really

[rich herald]

im having a lot of fun playing around with beast lately i might do a beast crest run tbh

[candid nimbus]

yeah try to get over small platforming space with it lol

[mint bison]

what is the pogo angle?

has anyone gotten to the surface w beast, i did it w hunter

[void moat]

am i evil for not getting the hype behind bell beast

[cursive torrent]

not me but yes

[subtle rain]

I did it with architects

[fathom rapids]

Its a very fun expirience, i would definitly recommend it, doing the beast crest only run made me choose beast as my second favorite in the game

[candid nimbus]

the vent thing in the citadel without turning on the air for the flee in the citadel try to get over that

[mint bison]

oh....wow

[orchid locust]

not really

[cursive torrent]

nah, at the end of the day, she is just an animal

[light swan]

adjustable based on how you di/ hold

[clear delta]

Ah

[light swan]

going well so far

[fathom rapids]

I so far have done it with hunter, beast, shaman and architects

[mint bison]

it wud be cool if hornet hd options to reply to people

[light swan]

i’ve done it hitless with beast and sawtooth circlet as well as with architect, very fun

[void moat]

she's just weird, she has no real story behind her, we dont know why she's there unlike the last stag, i feel like itd fit more if she were a huge splinter or something

[rich herald]

ngl wanna do it for every crest in the game besides shaman for. obvious reasons
unless i debug and get shaman crest in act 1 or something

[clear delta]

Still fun to have a dog I guess

[light swan]

y’all should try witch

[clear delta]

Also bell beast gets hype moments and aura in act 3

[rich herald]

i have never heard of witch crest before can you inform me more about this mysterious crest...

[void moat]

true yeah

[fathom rapids]

Do you olay on consoles? Bc if you play for PC i could lend ya a mod that allows ya to choose your dtarted crest

[orchid locust]

hornet’s meal plan:

breakfast (every 4 months)
lunch (every 8 months)
dinner (if she feels like it)

[rich herald]

no i play on pc

[clear delta]

Yeah makes sense

[cursive torrent]

there's something special to grab in bilewater if you drop in from vaults

[rich herald]

thatd be cool to have i still dont know how to install silksong mods really
it was a whole ordeal just to change hornets cloak color lmao

[fathom rapids]

That my next only run challenge, tho i dont really like the blue tool that makes ya attack when ya double jump, any other recomendations?

[light swan]

it’s really bad, your attacks are delayed and you have slow attack speed and your pogo pulls you into enemies and the bind fucking sucks

[rich herald]

aw man...

[obsidian shell]

nice job 👍

[orchid locust]

witch crest is the worst crest in the game, it has the worst moveset and 0 combo potential and the bind is completely useless

[rich herald]

guess ill just have to use wanderer then...

[light swan]

go for personal preference imo, whichever you’re comfortable with

[cursive torrent]

well done on the misinformation

[cursive torrent]

at least try it out, it has an extremelty high skill ceiling

[light swan]

like volt filament or snitch pick or maybe fractured mask or warding bell

[candid nimbus]

nah fuck reaper

[mint bison]

switch up is crzy

[candid nimbus]

all my homie hate reaper creast

[rich herald]

witch herald is a heretic?!

[rich herald]

i was doing a thing called a little bit of trolling unfortunately and i like witch crest

[fathom rapids]

This time ya just gonna drop the mod in the plugins folder, so it wont be much complicated, would ya like me to send a link for the mod?

[cursive torrent]

am i stupid chat

[rich herald]

yes pls

[mint bison]

why do you ahve these on speed dial

[rich herald]

its ok i understand the tism struggles as a fellow audhd haver

[candid nimbus]

anything but the reaper and maybe the beast creast

[orchid locust]

cs they’re his gameplay 💀

[slim fiber]

how moorwing felt on my first playthrough somehow tanking the 200 hits i landed on it over the course of a 7 minute fight before finally killing me

[mint bison]

well damn hes good

[light swan]

they’re all in my camera roll

[light swan]

that’s not my gameplay lol

[orchid locust]

oh is it not 💀 💀 i thought you js got goated at reaper

[candid nimbus]

yeah or you can just use other creast for it or just use architect creast

[light swan]

you can’t do that on other crests lol

[candid nimbus]

500 hundred cogfly

[light swan]

you really don’t know do you

[candid nimbus]

haha pary that you filty casual

[orchid locust]

nah hear him out architect spogo is the next big thing

[fathom rapids]

Be careful, if you select beast crest and get the hunters crest by eva, the beast chappel will be closed, locking ya from act 3 (unless ya install a room loader) to prevent it, just get the hunters crest by the going to the beast chappel and beating the beastfly so it dosent get bugged
https://www.nexusmods.com/hollowknightsilksong/mods/167

Have fun, i certanly had

[light swan]

i’ve tried LOL architect would have stuff going for it but it’s not spammable so its worser than reaper

[bold brook]

Beast pogo is the next big thing guys

[rich herald]

cursed crest is an option lmao
thatll be interesting

[slim fiber]

bro imagine if shaman crest and wanderer crest locations were swapped

[light swan]

i thought those were those buzzfeed quizzes “which crest are YOU??”

[candid nimbus]

sharman creast still asss

[light swan]

you can if you want

[mint bison]

what other crests can do this

[light swan]

here’s a comparison

[elfin grove]

I like reaper tho

[orchid locust]

nothing else

[light swan]

none, only architect can and it gets double damage if it charges

[fathom rapids]

Never mind lets fucking go

[opal grail]

Time to drop shaman

[slim fiber]

i think if none of your answers on the book one are dont read it has a way higher chance of giving you witch crest

This description is ah

only things i can get are witch crest or beast/architect if i really try

[jolly frost]

steel???? STEEL CITY

[glacial kelp]

[fathom rapids]

Maybe youre meant for witch after all

[opal grail]

Yeah what is this 😭

[orchid locust]

team cherry should make the steel city dlc but they should make it steel soul exclusive 🔥

[slim fiber]

oh my god finally

[gray talon]

soo do any other questions other than the one about your prefferred crest even matter?

[slim fiber]

so many answers add to witch crest its insane

[slim fiber]

i dont think preferred crest matters at all i picked wanderer every single time and it took so many tries to not get witch 😭

[glacial kelp]

this is why you put every crest as your preferred

china just likes building things so theres a station in the middle of nowhere

[clear delta]

Mount fay should have had. Enemies! Real ones!

[cobalt pilot]

Is it like connecting two cities or

[clear delta]

Other than servitor boran

[cobalt pilot]

I like the vibes it already has tbh

[errant lynx]

Good build?

[orchid locust]

no they just build stuff outside the city anticipating future development; in fact i think wherever that photo was taken already has city that expanded out to it

[cobalt pilot]

It feels like a very harsh climate. I like that that's reinforced with only really two types of bugs living there. If you can even call the menmenoids or whatevers bugs

[light swan]

yea, longclaw could be swapped out for something more useful but if you like it go ahead

[cobalt pilot]

Fascinating

[clear delta]

I get it's platforming focused but so is Karak, more snow bugs would be nice

[errant lynx]

Oh he's here

[cobalt pilot]

It's tranquil

[light swan]

yea !!

[errant lynx]

It's too normal

[clear delta]

You could have the enemies not really get in the way of the platforming, just have them on the ground for flair

[orchid locust]

it’s a much better solution than where i am where they wait for the city to expand and like 5 million new people to move in and THEN start digging everything up to build infrastructure 🥀 🥀

[slim fiber]

pinstress and moorwing are way to high put them in super f

tedious ah fights

[errant lynx]

Pinstress os fun
Moorwing is too

[fathom rapids]

for my taste i would replace mutilbinder, for me it was never worth waiting longer to just heal 1 one more mask, tho very good overall

[glacial kelp]

at least they build SOMETHING thats decent

[clear delta]

Get the skarrgard out of here bro

[slim fiber]

at least zango is a pretty cool gimmick fight and it feels nice to hit him like 50 times in a row

[errant lynx]

Idk man he's in the lis5

[glacial kelp]

you are the only one with this take

[slim fiber]

pinstress is peak because i hate when bosses exist in the arena and i dont have to wait to be able to attack them

[elfin grove]

I like reaper

[thin jewel]

whats a good build for trobio

[orchid locust]

worse, india 🥀

[clear delta]

Pakistan is actually putrified ducts irl

[clear delta]

No way brah im pakistani

[glacial kelp]

is india not chill in like a bigger city

[slim fiber]

i have a personal deep hatred for moorwing after my fifth attempt on him after the boss already being a bit annoying from how tanky it was it like locked in on durability even more and somehow lasted 7 minutes of me being as aggressive as i could before it killed me and i just skipped it with caravan, literally how did an early game boss take longer in an attempt than absolute radiance

[orchid locust]

it depends really; the inner city is chill, the burbs are developing so they have constant construction and some truly horrendous infrastructure, then the countryside is nice

[clear delta]

I mean the big cities here (Right next to India) aren't allat

[slim fiber]

like there had to be an actual glitch there or smth, some real perfectly placed photon beam kinda thing, to make the boss still not die after over 200 hits

[glacial kelp]

i think you maybe just… miss a lot? if youre being super aggro and its 7 mins? like idk man

[orchid locust]

🔥

[clear delta]

Let's have a duel

[glacial kelp]

burbs are hell in every country just look different

[slim fiber]

the hit effect isnt exactly subtle

[glacial kelp]

ive done moorwing a lot for speedruns and hes chill idk

like 2 mins maybe tops

[slim fiber]

the boss staggered over 10 times so at a point i have to think something actually got messed up

[orchid locust]

other burbs are not digging up every main road in like a 20km radius to build metros 🥀 (i’m glad they’re building a metro it’s js holy shit is it annoying to go anywhere rn)

[slim fiber]

-1k phantom ah

[glacial kelp]

do you need a car in india i imagine its fairly walkable generally

[light swan]

Unlike other Run-slashes, this Crest does not have a startup animation, making gauging the initial dash of Swift Step crucial to avoid contact damage.

does this mean the witch dash attack is faster than other dash attacks (except maybe wanderer)

[woven rover]

what is 28+39

[glacial kelp]

21

[slim fiber]

4

[orchid locust]

it’s walkable on the local scale as in most stores and stuff you need are very close by, and it’s walkable for inter-city travel because of trains; but actually moving inside the city is insanely car dependent you need a vehicle

[glacial kelp]

oh as in to your job or school or whatever? fair enough

[orchid locust]

like delhi and mumbai are the only cities currently that i would say have extensive enough metros/local rail to be walkable inside the city

[glacial kelp]

do people here read books

[blissful cliff]

Here is my weaver crest idea, which im going to call the Crest of the Ensnarer

The idea for this crest is based upon hornets naked/crestless moveset, the weaver bosses melee movements, and the idea of using silk for martial arts. So this concept distinguishes the playstyle of crestless moveset, from the hunter crest, by emphasizing the use of silk in combat to stagger enemies, via spell spamming.
This is a playstyle I feel is not currently covered by any existing crest.

Crest of the Ensnarer "Weave silk into your attacks, gaining silk rapidly" (Obtained from a weaver in Bilewater/pharloom bay or from the remnants of GMS Cocoon in The Cradle in act 3.)

Gameplay changes: Silk generation is doubled for when you land a hit, but every melee attack drains either 1/2 a silk. (Gain 2 per hit but uses 1/2 of one for the attack) (when out of silk you use the naked/crestless move-set) Missed attacks will always use silk, but parried attacks (and spike object/hazard bouncing) have there used silk refunded.

Spells and Bind: The casting or recovery speed of Silk skills is speed up 20-33%, but they also deal 20% less damage. Bind heals 2 masks at the same speed as beast crest. (1 second) Multibind would change bind to both be slower and sloppy but heal 3 masks. (1 then 2 masks over ~3 seconds)

Melee Attacks: Hornets moveset uses her limbs which incorporate silk to reinforce her attacks. (martial arts) She uses her legs for down attacks and her arms for horizontal and upward attacks. (its attack speed is on par with base beast crest)

Horizontal Attack: Hornet will use her arms to create a whip made if silk. She will then swipe it upwards at an angle inverse to the beast crest. This attack would alter the trajectory of flying enemies to make them move above her.

Up Attack: Hornets up attacks are like an inverse reaper down attack. She will either swipe up with her legs or with a whip of silk to attack overhead. Its a complete arc, possibly with a short delay. (Which some down attacks have)

Down Attack: The down attack would be the same as Hornets naked/crestless down attack. But she will coat her legs with silk allowing her to bounce off spikes. Bouncing objects and spikes refunds the silk but hitting nothing wont. (Reminder when out of silk you cant pogo spikes due to the crestless moveset, but you would have silk hearts)

Run Slash: Hornet will swipe thread around her 3 times in a circular trajectory. (basically witch and wander crest running swipes but very short range and covers behind her.)

Charge Attack: Hornet will lunge forward with both hands, using web to grab enemies. Dealing damage to multiple enemies, and causing double stagger damage. (Aoe frontal attack with some iframes)

Tool Slots: Silk Slots: 2, Red Tool: 1 [Max 1], Blue Tool: 0 [Max 2], Yellow Tool: 0 [Max 2]

Crest design: Its inspired by both spider webs and weaver runes. Due to the in game designs of the latter this crest is symmetrical making it different from other crests. (Also a little bit of hive motifs due to hornets connection with them)

Hud design: Is inspired by 1. hornets own bodies design, specifically her leg which is used in the crestless moveset. 2.silk due to its use in the moveset, creating a pattern where it converges, into a more densly weaved closer to the tip. 3 The helix pattern is inspired by spider webs, weaver runes, weaved cloth and DNA making a double helix. 4. The crook surrounding GMS in the cradle, which seems to heard her silk. Along with the crook historical being used to represent power, guidance and protection.

Crest name: Is a remnant of an older design for the crest but i like the name. Other possible names are seamstress, weaver, or fighter (martial artist) based upon the definitions of using thread.

Anyone have any feedback? sorry about the wall of text...

[obsidian shell]

[boreal berry]

[obsidian shell]

[slim fiber]

[boreal berry]

i've only done widow once and MAN I AM COOKED

I can just tell it's gonna be worse than sister splinter

are you flea #4

dang it

[obsidian shell]

i don't mean i get scared kind of nervous 👀💧

you get me

[blissful cliff]

Try tooless lost lace and karmelita for 50 attempts each, now every other boss is a pushover

I also mean no tools of any kind including silk skills

[boreal berry]

I beat moorwing first try with no cheesing

[blissful cliff]

Moorwing is an easy boss even pre nerf compared to lace 2 and act 3 bosses

[boreal berry]

i'm not making it out alive am I

[blissful cliff]

Act 3 bosses are hard XD.

[trim estuary]

[blissful cliff]

150+ hours and constant listening to feedback slowly refining the design and art.

Wasn't easy...

[boreal berry]

I like the crest design

[blissful cliff]

Ty the drawings together took over 110 hours... (went through over 50 crest designs and over 80 hud designs.)

[light swan]

someone said heretic earlier and now i want to make a crest of the heretic

[blissful cliff]

A lifeblood crest i assume

People have been trying.

[slim fiber]

what if there was a reverse crest of the beast that was crest of the bell and you turned into a stationary bell that heals when it gets hit (real)

[light swan]

meh i dont think lifeblood crest is a good idea

[slim fiber]

just stab yourself repeatedly hollow knight style smh my head

[slim fiber]

what gave it away

[slim fiber]

"clock strikes 12, midnight arrives" ah collector

[blissful cliff]

Honestly im expecting there to possibly be one added in dlc... because a cut area called the lifeblood spire will probably return along with pharloom bay.

[blissful cliff]

My crest on the other hand is meant to be a spell spam crest to compete with shamen.

[boreal berry]

what does beast crest do

[light swan]

the sukuna video should be done i think

[boreal berry]

and follow up question: what's the best crest in your opinion

[blissful cliff]

Some people have gotten way to good at the invonvient beast crest down attack

[light swan]

people act like beast pogo is a drawback

[blissful cliff]

Even as someone who 100% steel soul yes....

[blissful cliff]

It takes time to get used to.

[blissful cliff]

My shock is how well they did that part of the surface climb with it.

[slim fiber]

this one looks pretty cool

[iron bronze]

what happened to the other silksong discussion

[silver nacelle]

It should be based on the slab enemies. It should get a 50% buff when fighting bosses.

[light swan]

but its not inconvenient once mastered

[orchid locust]

what does the bottom of the image say only the top half is loading for me

[iron bronze]

eaten by void it seems

[slim fiber]

pilby treatment

[light swan]

a slowness crest focusing on big heavy attacks like reaper

[iron bronze]

Haunted!

[blissful cliff]

True.

[silver nacelle]

And a boss killer because bosses are "gods" according to Godseeker.

[boreal berry]

so does that mean whatsitcalled

[slim fiber]

no it vanished (or died to skull tyrant/cupcake the beetle)

[iron bronze]

pilby didnt vanish

[blissful cliff]

Just janky for tight pardcore... honeslty flea bounce isnt that impressive compared to that part of the surface climb...

[light swan]

hear me out... a crest with long attack animations but it halts you midair

[iron bronze]

my pilby is safe and sound...

[slim fiber]

wait when does pilby show up again after pilgrims rest i need to know

[light swan]

well ive done the surface climb hitless with beast and i can confirm its easier than flea bounce

[slim fiber]

i must find him ong

[silver nacelle]

What about a crest that turns your needle into a bow?

[light swan]

meh not for the heretic

[iron bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/out-disappear-bye-vanished-gif-4932063

[silver nacelle]

Oh, I meant in general.

[slim fiber]

NO DONT VANISH LIKE PILBY

[light swan]

i dont really think the bow is a good idea, the shaman crest is already a good ranged crest anyway

[blissful cliff]

Really... is it harder than 15 fleas in or aare you refering to like 30+ in

[light swan]

ive beaten seths score with flea bounce beast crest, thats what im talking about

[blissful cliff]

Yeah that would be hell

[slim fiber]

why would someone be specifically talking about the 15-30 segment of it

[light swan]

cuz my gif was in the 15-30 segment

[blissful cliff]

Thats what the gif showed

[silver nacelle]

Imagine it like the hades 2 bow and it gets a damage multiplier buff for needle strike.

Pale King: Hornet, my daughter... I saw you kissing Lace. I am very 𝓗𝓸𝓶𝓸𝓹𝓱𝓸𝓫𝓲𝓬.
(Original joke by Gir the el jibbity

[blissful cliff]

Honestly hunter is worse for minigame than archetect due to the archetects delay.

Hunter if you miss once you loose

[light swan]

tbh i would agree based on my own experience, but i cant tell if thats cuz i lost my muscle memory but i do agree personally

[blissful cliff]

I tried all 7 on flea minigame... hunters and beast were the hardest.

Shamen is best followed by reaper.

[blissful cliff]

Makes sense

[opaque ridge]

What have i done

[opaque ridge]

...

[silver nacelle]

It's worse when your hands are sweaty.

[blissful cliff]

Every down attack is unique right?

[light swan]

nah id say cold makes it harder to move

[silver nacelle]

Is that why I got hit on LL today?

[light swan]

i dont need to worry about finger slipping with sweaty hands

[silver nacelle]

Lucky bastard.

[light swan]

its because im a keyboard player

[silver nacelle]

[light swan]

it doesnt matter if my fingers slip if i just press down

anyways its done, https://youtube.com/shorts/dgGsMJqrwWg?si=8CZQEmhHax5x5uVX this is definitely my best editing so far

[blissful cliff]

Lace 10% silk 90% sassy.

[opaque ridge]

[slim fiber]

idea instilled

[blissful cliff]

My advice is to take it slow
play defensivly at all times...
I didnt save quit scum like most people but certain hard bosses i practiced in a parrallel non steel soul save to warm up for. (If you feel thats cheeting just watch a video to refresh your memory)

I suggest avoiding hunters march slowly and take safer paths and not to rush. I suggest memorizing all the boss patterns. Focus on mask shards and run when low on health and use heals conservitivly. Ie only heal when you can recover all your masks. (Unless its the early game with 5 masks)

[opaque ridge]

[orchid locust]

inaccurate the knight would be in the background sitting on a mountain of geo

[bronze spruce]

Skarrsinger Karmalita: Hello Saint Nicholas
Saint Nicholas: hello Skarrsinger Karmalita

[blissful cliff]

Use fractured mask and multibind as well and use red tools as needed fractured mask blocks all but 2 instances of double mask damage... its an extra hit.

[opaque ridge]

[blissful cliff]

I recomend overpreparing for high halls and getting shakra or garmond to decrise your risks.

Steel soul you try and maximize your gear and not rush the endgame. Ie get 8 masks minimum for act 3.

[light swan]

use plasmium overdose

its especially good on beast and witch since you can still heal back 3/4

[blissful cliff]

Not an option until shellwood

[light swan]

but it is an option after shellwood

[blissful cliff]

Yup

[blissful cliff]

I avoided it outside of bilewater...

But that was pride

[light swan]

wait isnt it not an option until act 3

[blissful cliff]

Generally try and maxamize your gear and play safely

[blissful cliff]

Archetect is avalible in act 2.

But not until post clawline.

[light swan]

but you cant overdose on other crests until act 3

[blissful cliff]

Meaning overdose is late act 2 exclusive

[blissful cliff]

Correct Outside of an exploit.
