yeah that's just player error, sorry
ur probably holding a key/button down that results in the incorrect output
Yeah, it is
I strongly suggest exiting hunter's march
it's full of relatively strong enemies and there's almost no reason to go there, ESPECIALLY in earlygame
go left until you end up back in the marrow, then go down
Are you playing on a controller by chance
they said keyboard earlier
Okay
oh i get the problem
didn’t see hornet turn at all
youre sitll holding left 😭
mm ok
ok wait can someone answer my question tho instead of arguing abt hunters march pogo sry
btw you can kinda pogo INSIDE of those things btw
Ur just coping. It was your fault
like you can pogo at point blank range
It's like dreamnail
Is this actually hard for anyone. Actually just curious cause I thought this was easy you just gotta control how far you push your joystick and such (on controller at least)
do you have drifter's cloak at least
try using that between each pogo to position yourself better before pressing the attack button
to give yourself time to reposition and turn around
<@&283547423706447872> MORE FREE MONEY
FREE MONEY
hornet doesnt turn around while backflipping until the backflip si over
mm
this is the first time im hearing anyone complain about that so like i feel like its just you whos complaining
yeah
clearer demonstration of what theyre talking about
hunters crest is probably the most used crest
MORE MONEY
I LOVE FREE MONEY 
Bruh
and MORE money
more free money
lmao

you should open a bank with all this free cash
are we in the same community
is that all of the free money
reaper is um
the worst crest in the game btw
reaper is the most hated crest
Didn't even struggle with it
It’s fun
it's extremely slow and has almost nothing working in its favor
anyway you can still pogo the other way it takes 1 extra braincell
I've seen more wanderer hate but reaper is second most
same
I don't hate reaper, i just hate the people who say it's the best crest
wanderer hate only recently started happening and its pretty much only in this chanel
i've been clicking on every single free money link sent in this server and i currently have 181.28 million dollars
what about wanderer
i see wanderer hate ALOT on tiktok
nvm then
the knight is the roaring knight
I don't hate wanderer but i think it's kinda boring to use
agreed
What is the first?
i think its super fun
People say it makes silksong "way too easy"
but we never saw them in the same room also their shade can sing
And basically they say "go back to hk"
it's fast, and it has a very clean pogo
I enjoy witch the most
I don't like the sprint attack or needle strike of wanderer
Same
reminder that wanderer is stupid but i still love wanderer
gl Imma be happier when steel assasins dlc releases than when the actual silksong did
wanderer is just very basic
sea of sorrow tomorrow
wanderer vro
rdac chaining is only barely faster than wanderer spam which is really annoying
steel assasins dlc gonna be PEAK
i enjoy hunter and architect(without spamming)
Oh 
Just use needletect
Chat, my 148 score in flea bounce didn’t saved
lots of people use wanderer and reaper unfortunately
Needletect is very fun
I think reaper is good for exploring
Wanderer is uh, wanderer
i also enjoy beast
also dont need to farm on architect if you don’t mindlessly spam
i’m an architect user but with no red tools and it’s very fun
I personally am a shaman main
Shaman is like very good and fun crest but too bad it's opened in the worst part of the game
i know people who use flintslate flea brew delvers drill architect
lmao
Holy shit, shaman pogo is goated
is this pogo only
i just did crust king khann, getting his heart was cool but it was a little underwhelming. i mean maybe make him do something with his sharp intimidating claws instead of... controlling coral

no i did that on accident
:0
i like reaper crest
Overall my opinion about crests is that i hate them all i hate this game i hate silksong
wanderer and reaper are still playstyles which people enjoy

someone call the knight
you're so real
my overall opinion is that witch is cool
ARCHITECT MENTIONED
minutely reminder than witch pogo is crazy
Hunter and witch are the best crests imo
how about witch heal
lowkenuinely felt like a noob when someone said no one with a functioning brain uses wanderer crest.. i've gotten too used to wanderer crest to switch 🥀
quick question do yall think the dlc will have different things is youre in act 2 or 3 (or 1 even)
My problems with the game is:
Wishes are really boring to do, esp on replays
Act 3 feels more about hype moments and aura, it's the most boring act because there's little to no exploring. Only good part about it is the hearts quests
Also im not a big fan of hk npcs and i liked how much more emotional hk was compared to silksong
also crazy
crest king khann
But silksong combat is pretty good, charm system sucked ass
yeah charm system sucked because there was no charms
Finally someone I can agree with
i haven’t heard “objectively bad game design” in ages
definitely
No charm balancing*
what, those were in hollow knight too
Def not tanky
guys this one enemy in one area sucks so the entire game sucks
they get two shot bro 😭😭
What is your needle brochaco
Early gsme they are
stand below them, then they'll do a dive stab attack where they sit there on the ground for ages and you can land tons of hits
are you fighting with a stick
he’s tickling their armpits
search this channel and you'll find eight cases of such
I BEAT SILKSONG
unupgraded needle does 5 base damage, and deals 1.2x damage against spear skarr (6 damage)
they have 75 health
that's 13 hits
Why is Lost Verdania INFESTED with teleporting enemies 😭
Lost verdania enemies suck
Theres more silk oh god.
Noice
your needle is dealing 6 damage per hit not 4 
Is hornet okay??
yes
!!??
And the bosses are dissapointing
OH SHE HAS MORE ARMS DEAR GOD SHES BECOMING GOD
that’s just a tuesday
GOOD JOB !!
easily lookable on the wiki
WHAT
Spear skar has 75 health /5 15 hits

fuck wrong image i'm soryyej
A
Oh 20% hm
don’t get me started about wednesday
13 hits then
where'd the 1.2× damage come from
They still are pretty tank imo
Okay so like
- My eye is twitching
- Gms felt weirdly overwhelming and underwhelming at the same time.
oh
nvm
btw you can upgrade your needle
if it's too tough you may come back after you've freed bellhart and sharpened the needle
Don't get me wrong im not saying nerf em im just saying they are tanky
why are you even in hunter's march
I cant use Witch crest anywhere
how else are you meant to beat her without healing
Because the game puts you there, I immediatly went there after bell beast lol
I said nothing about not healing
it doesn't go anywhere, except for being a significantly harder route to swift step than just going through deep docks
to balance out the game
they definitely don't want you to one shot an enemy later on when you upgrade your needle to max
How do I beat the Lost Verdania gauntlet with Witch crest?
but they said they've beaten act 2 
so they should know better
Oh sorry, nevermind then, on mobile its hard to keep up with messages one one gif/meme takes up 3/4s screen
Well now.. act 3 
not really
They don't do anything at all
how exactly??
That definitely isnt ominous at all
just multipliers
Im gonna try steel soul
yeah god just gets sent into the void with her child just no biggie just another wednesday
Gl!
Happy 2026!

Good luck but do try to find act 3 soon 
I keep forgetting i dont have my abilities when i start anew
lol
I will!
Mmm smoothies
roughies when
imma try out beast steel soul again, maybe I don't throw before even getting the damn crest this time
how is that dumb
Is anything different in steel soul?
not really
you still haven't said what's horrible about it
Alr
dead bug's purse is replaced with shell satchel (lets you hold more tool uses at once), and there's an exclusive wish
One of the worst tools is turned into one of the best tools (dead man's purse to shell satchel)
and uhh... styx is replaced with a Creature that TAKES silkeaters and gives you rosaries for them
What
it's literally the opposite
the multipliers make enemies LESS TANKY when you have fewer upgrades
Who was the one guy who always came in here screaming and complaining about everything he saw in the game? Justin is that guy
then everything's very flat
I miss averagedos...
Averagedos yes!
Lost Verdania with Witch crest is like eternal hell
Love that fella
different enemies have different damage multipliers, so every enemy doesn't just feel the same
Ooooh Clamity Inferno!
Wow I'm swooning
Real he was funny 
if every enemy had 15 health and died in 3/2/2/1/1 hits, that'd be fucking boring
Flea bounce down dash is kinda goated
not to mention stupid, and bad game design
calamity infernum zzz
I'm gonna go try and get act 3
good luck
I'm in hell
Terraria in general: 
we love world arena slop
good to know they at least have internet
They might have banned discord in Egypt yall 💔💔
Yikes
what the hell why
please dont design a video game ever
RELEASE MEEEEEE
Because Egypt
Come to Alaska it's nice and warm and we have polar bear drawn sleighs
We can't do anything in this country 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
the late game is the one that sucks
trueeee
for spear skarr it's 13/9/6/5/4 hits to kill
the early and midgame is like actually okay
earlygame is fine now with the relics and the mossberries
You don’t need to buy everything tho
in other words, don't go to hunter's march at the start of the game unless you're very confident
App i mean
Well
I mean even so that's intentional
im assuming i need to beat up the last judge to unlock act 3
didnt do that yet because there was this weird thing where my screen would randomly go back while fighting her and made it WAY less playable
me when I buy "Magnetite Brooch" and equip it
I didn’t buy it until act 3
silksong is partially about economic exploitation so why should you be able to easily get money pre-citadel
Time to play SKYRIM on my Limited Edition MINECRAFT Xbox One
oh dear...
assuming you aren't losing tons of rosaries by dying, you have plenty throughout the game
If you can reach ||hunter’s march||, the enemies there give good money
i beat gms and i still havent gotten magnetite brooch
This is big if true. This sucks for most people but it means I never have to read a medical horror story again.
slay the princess
okay now I know you're just a dumbass
also remember to not buy trash items like most of jubilana's wares until you have nothing else left to spend rosaries on
I'm arguing with an anti-intelluctual I hate this server
The only tool you need is compas
it's not even a hard concept to grasp
justin, your hairline is receding
better than lace age discourse
These silksong fans are so funny
stop complaining and go outside or something
uh... yeah...?
The worker exploitation arc is a long ways away
Yeah thats the fucking point
I never said it was supposed to be fun

If it wasn't fun at all why is Underworks my, uh.. 3rd (?) favorite region
I like environmental storytelling a lot
games should be allowed to not be fun otherwise this medium will forever be held back
Lets goo. Underworks lover
It’s one area, not a big deal
Because narravitive shouldnt hinder gameplay
again, so long as you aren't dying or wasting rosaries on junk like Spool Extender, you'll have more than enough rosaries to buy benches, bellways and the stuff you want
Shouldn't? Says who?
narrative is gameplay in this case
you can still give rosaries and have the same narrative...
I fight every enemy that gets in my way and that gets me enough rosaries to buy just about anything I want
fuck have a rosary chest by the last judge for example
dont bother
I think this is the legendary "i only play games for the gameplay" crowd
Eventually you run out of things to buy anyway
Hey
That isn't the point, you can have both. you dont need to sacrafice replayability for narrative reasons
you're not supposed to have enough rosaries to buy everything you see that can be bought as soon as you see it
I do too play games for the story
no but the rosary amount is fucking horrible in this game
not really
Game fun
I know grynne thats why youre cool
Hi um, how can I defeat ||trobbio||?
the rosary amount is fine rn imo
the amount of rosaries you get from wishes is not even enough to complete the wish donation quests, let that sink in
How many enemies do you fight on average
all the rosaries you earn, dont even pay for progression fully
I think the only time I grinded for rosaries was when I was doing the speed completion achievement
Like do you usually run or do you fight them
literally only problem is the lack of a colosseum in act 3 to get more rosaries faster
you don't HAVE to spend rosaries on every bench you encounter btw
I had to do it both in my first playthrough and in my 100% now i use debug
PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE TC ADD A GOD DAMN COLOSSEUM
making them less noticeable would make getting the upgrades almost very much less rewarding
you have to spend it on the donations though THOSE ARE REQUIRED, thats what i meant by progression for wish wall
yeah that's normal
Wish granted, last round of first challenge is ||two savage beastflies||
You dont need to spoiler that and yeah thats fine
Fuck even if you get ALL the colleibles and geo rocks you dont have enough rosaries to buy everything
Every single rock without losing a single rosary
Not bad with full equipment
2 savage beastflies is fine
you're not supposed to be able to buy all that stuff right away
not to mention 1/2 rosary rocks them money full into spikes
it's a metroidvania, you can backtrack when you DO have money to spend
He said “anything” tho
You guys should go to ||hunter’s march||
okay first thing
The big guys there drop 25 rosaries a pop
Hard area to go through but worth it
I just think team cherry overcorrected from hk, hk had too much money and silksong doesnt have enough
I JUST DIED IN THE MOST EMBARRASING WAY EVER LOL
I LITERALLY DASHED RIGHT INTO LAST JUDGE ON ONE HEART XD
magnetite doesnt even fix the rosary problem
lol 
what about ones that fall towards hazards, hmm?
It’s not really an embarrassing death
you get 90% rosaries anyway 10% manginite would have collected are in spikes or lava
they get destroyed by the spikes broch doesnt even get them
honestly i didn't struggle with rosaries that much
shards are a pain for me
Same
Share grind sucks
Shard*
they were for me in early playthroughs
Shards are easy when you don't use reds 
Shard quests in bone bottum are fucking horrible as well
That’s why I stopped using reds
i hate courier's rash
on replay i just cheat shards for damned quest in bone bottum
...what
rosaries breaking on spikes is stupid. like i want to jump and kill myself to get them but the game doesnt even let me. whats the point
I always have enough shards for bone bottom's donations when those wishes show up...
Since I don't use reds the bone bottom quests are free 
GIR ARE YOU HERE
Rise and shine hornet rise and shine
Hopium
red tools aren't even WORTH using that early in the game anyway
Do you guys know that theory that hornet and grimm are somehow related because they have some very similar attacks?
When I did it I got there with a pixel of bar left
Half life 3 tomorow
yea true, its narrative that quests are dogshit
ah yes lemme just burn through my entire fucking supply of Straight Pin to kill this weak enemy
the magnetite brooch should:
also magnetize shards,
instantly give u the items instead of pulling them.
the pulling is way way better than gathering swarm
you don't use straight pin to be optimal. u use it to style on enemies
I mean sting shard is pretty crazy for arenas and bosses but I think killing something fun is more exciting than killing something fast when it comes to replays
I DEFEATED THE LAST JUDGE
..after defeating gms.
lol
gathering swarm suffers from the angular homing dilemma where the geo ends up orbiting you
you are trolling right?
cruveclaw, sting shard, flintslate
curveclaw my beloved
i cant get curveclaw.
in the fucking marrow...?
if silksong had a crest which let you equip all tools then I think that the game would feature hornet as a protagonist
can i get curveclaw in act 2?
hunter's march is early game. and u can get curvesclaw there
and again, hardly worth using
red tools mentioned
you can just hit enemies with your needle.
hush you
its in the top room of hunter's march
Sting shard is so good imo
<@&283547423706447872> wow a new one
if you're in act 2
<@&283547423706447872>
Reply if you see this
bonus points for originality 
Eat up mods. your slop is here
I think my discord is bugged
where in there
I didn't see it :(
its fine
Shit man I want my parlay

.
like
10 quids?!
where at the top
its strung up in ropes
anything above and including straight pin is fine
i'll go look
sting shards are a bit awkward to use imo
Im sorry but when the fuck do you complete the bone bottum quests before leaving the marrow lmfao
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
can we all agree silksong is unnecessarily frustrating
and very easily wasted
you SEE this top room?
like half the bosses give you a tool or a key item
its at the end of it
I usually throw it and if the enemy doesn't touch it I guide it to the shard
can we all agree silk is unnecessarily song
you're still facing weak enemies around that point of the game
Wdym
and simply hitting them with your needle is more than sufficient
Phantom: parry lace 2: silk heart
-# gut gud
because it deals damage?
curveclaw
it's also faster than grinding shards 
silksong is just frustrating... had so much more fun with regular hollow knight, much better difficulty scaling
mf u don't need to grind shard to make use of red tools
Oh my god yeah whatever here I'll type you a list of every boss and the reward they give
I can't live like this
For me it's only bile water and some bosses that are unnecessarilyfrustrating
if you use them semi on the regular u can very much replenish enough shards naturally to just not worry about shards
the complaint here was not having enough shards for donations
U didnt really explain tbh
OOOH YOU MEAN THAT ONE
that's just a skill issue
yes
i'll head over there as quickly as i can so i can get it
Like what specifically makes it more frustrating
Half the time I feel like people who complain about not having enough cash or shards are just not killing enough things
"shards arent a problem for the bone bottum quests if you choose to ignore a whole ass mechanic of the game" yea sounds like good design to me
if you don't have 200 shards by the time you've defeated the bell beast, that's a skill issue
shards are kind of stupid i think
huh??? lmfao
but like complaning about donations is...
I consistently reach the shard cap earlygame and that’s WITH spending as much as I can on reds per trip
im such a trash player yall right
you know almost every enemy in the game drops shards, right?
except gauntlets. gauntlets should drop shards like its so stupid that they don't
did anyone else feel unimaginable terror when they saw that sherma went to whiteward?
ngl, yes
YES
I feel like there’s enough shards in the game
Yes I was mortified
yea which 1/2 of which fall into hazards, woooooooo 4 shards per enemy amazing
got me like this
like the morticians?
Bell beast, Beastfly 1 & 2, second sentinel, trobbio & emo trobbio, pinstress
im just saying for early game quests at bone bottum
there's enough shards to replenish semi-regular uses of red tools
I can name more
I suppose the argument is that you could farm shards from them
but you're likely SPENDING shards in them
only time I was running low on shards was during moorwing and groal
gaunlets should drop shit like shards imo
i didnt run low on shards in my firstplaythrough, but now i actually use red tools so i do
Who’s using gauntlets of all things to grind shards anyway
because using red tools is fun
btw I swear one time a leaf roller in lost verdania dropped shell shards
except farming rosaries FOR shards would be faster than using gauntlets for shard farms
You could just find enemies to grind rosaries and then spend those on shard bundles
This, it would be faster to farm rosaries
you can't
gauntlets should drop shards and honestly i think that's the only complain i personally have for shards
Just have it drop shards so people don’t have to grind between attempts if they’re low
I just have the complaint for replayability
Not like there’s a narrative reason for them to not drop any
i basically need debug mod on replay
the problem is that gauntlets end up consuming shards without giving you ANY back
And give my shards back when I die😭
more frustrating bosses, unnecessary difficulty like losing 2 masks on every boss, a lot of parkour sections feel like mini paths of pain while hollow knight had only white palace, difficulty scaling much worse with some difficult bosses appearing pretty fast (I hate bell beast might be skill issue) a lot of bosses have much worse and less telegraphed patterns so its hard to get consistent in them and because of lack of any kind of invincibility frames ability you get more unavoidable damage, also shorter invincibility frames often make you take 2x hit from one attack and you can't even breath a little bit. A lot of parts are difficult just for the sake of annoying difficulty instead of being fun like I experienced it in hollow knight
but apparently im " a trash player" because i dont like to farm shards
no i don't agree with this
i think TC made shards less obtainable so people don't just spam red tools
the only people who spam red tools ALOT is architects
not that it worked out anyways
overall I find silksong frustrating, I love how its much better mechanically but the frustration ruins it for me
and that's kind of the POINT of that crest.
this, and they could have fixed it by removing architect tool bind
The only part of this i take issue with is the telegraphing part
Moss Mother - Doesnt need one
Bell Beast - Fucking bellway travel, 1 silk heart
Lace (Deep Docks) - Progression to Far Fields, meant to be a skill check
Fourth Chorus - Meant to be a drifter cloak tutorial for combat
Moorwing - Sure, this one could be fine with a reward, whatever
Sister Splinter - Cling Grip
Widow - The fucking needolin
Double Moss Mother - Weavelight
Great Conchflies - Needle Strike
Savage Beastfly - Beast Crest
Skull Tyrant - Heavy Rosary Necklace
Skull Tyrant again - Sure give him a reward whatever
Last Judge - Meant to be the final boss of the act, doesnt need one
Phantom - Cross Stitch
this is just the act 1 bosses btw I could go on and on
I use red tools a lot
uh no. removing architect's tool bind is stupid. it is an important part of the crest
even when I use architect I don't even use red tools that much
A lot of flying enemies are made much easier through thrown tools
Most bosses are pretty well telegraphed
craft bind is a novelty feature lmao
i honestly dont think it is, just give it more tool capacity boom
maybe make it so architect's tool bind gives less tools instead of fixing all of it
...perhaps
perhaps make it only able to repair half capacity for each tool
what if
can we all agree beast fly was created just to be a frustrating piece of shit?
that could be a solution as well, my point is there are many things that could be used instead of shell shard system
i don't even think the Skull tyrant rematch needs a reward tbh
We remove the tool bind because it fucking sucks
though that makes me think of when you equip and unequip shell satchel
shell shard system just exists so players can feel good about killing enemies and getting something
lets just remove binding tbh
ehhh no I disagree I think architect’s tool bind
I think the issue comes with everything else about tools
Nobody is going to agree with you here
since they didnt want to give money they give shell shards
interacting with architect
make architect give less tools from a binding
spend shards on more tools
unequip, additional tools get deleted, shards spent on them are wasted
glazing beast fly is crazy
if you fought it early it could be rough, but overall its fair
Everyone in this channel is pretty sweaty
it would suck ass
infact what if u just replace the architect healing with the tool binding
I aint glazing
nerf tools
Im just saying ppl here dont hate bf
most people just use overdose on architect anyways
- i count 6 2. they probably dont need one anyway
Not saying its a good boss
i got curveclaw
didn't say its unfair, its just frustrating as hell and a minion spawner which is the worst type of boss, like let me fight the frickin boss not the minions
my favourite boss
i guess if you compare it to hk, you usually get and item and money
Why is progression not a reward anyway
abilities aren't rewards???
im crine
Beastfly
what if architects got like only 1 tool refill for each time they sit in a bench
Like why are we even sayign thats not a reward
say, is there any way to upgrade the silkshot?
It quite fuckign literally is
progression is a tangible object i get ingame (in my inventory)
clawline double jump
What’s the argument rn
i have no clue
Did u think silksong lived up to expectations or no
I just got here
Simply curious
That’s the worst logic
moorwing's reward is access to bellhart
or if you skip it, the reward is a beast shard instead
bell eater was such a pain in ass, one of the reasons why I don't want to replay act 3
Okie
Hi
false knight, key and money
hornet, core ability
mantis lords, progression money mark of pride
soul master ability, money, grub
watcher knights, money, huge story
But abilities aren’t rewards
even the bosses only drop money drop alot in hk
wait what, by that metric barely any bosses have rewards
Agreed😭
needleoin allows u to access more areas and gain masks and shit
its a great game, took everything from hollow knight and expanded it but all of these sweats doing "haha beating the entire game hitless because no silksong" made team cherry think we all love when game makes us want to throw a controller across the room
If I get the ability to parry literally anything in real life after murdering someone I would consider it a big reward for my efforts
i just think giving more money/shards in skong doesnt hurt the narrative
y'know i have no arguement
Why tf do you need parry in real life
even if they aren't rewards
bosses allowing giving you progression abilities should be more than enough
it is
to parry a car driving towards me just because I felt like doing it that day
progress is a reward
Jump out a plane and parry the ground duh
Lmao
True
ngl you're just greedy
FUCK WTF
10 billion rosaries to bilewater
shaman crest would be my fav if not removing ability to heal in air, like why... its not that strong even with it
Pogo on the spikes boi
I GOT KIDNAPPED BY THE ELEVATOR WHILE DOING COURIER'S RASH AND NOW THIS WASP IS DAMAGING ME
Well unfortunately for you they wont do anything to change it
look out it can damage you in there
at least you're not that far

AAAAAAAA
Not trying to be mean ot anything
Because crests are meant to be balanced. And then there is architect
that fucking elevator has claimed so many courier's rasher attempts
can't believe i got kidnapped by an elevator
Can't use gifs anymore!!!! I'm officially WASHED
it's far more common than you'd think
and wanderer
im honestly gonna be brutal here, most crests are balanced enough
Hello
why
Wanderer is lowkey balanced
n
reaper needs a fucking rework
empowered silk skills:
THEY GOT RID OF THE 10 SECOND SLOWMODE
Who's that guy that does hitless on mobile
wanderer can face tank every boss
old news...
reaper is fine, oh no it doesnt have as high of an impact, it has survivability
What's his username
ok maybe not every
Area access is good enough
I know but it's been a while since I've gone on this server
also the idea is that you're supposed to be spending silk on skills, NOT on binding
not everything needs to do 100% damage
Discord is banned in my country now i think 💔 (I'm rn using the website which seems to work normally)
Well. "A while"
Reaper is balanced because it has bad performance but easy to use
Every crest is balanced in my opinion. Architect is broken, sure, but you also need like 100000 shards to use it. Beast crest is usually trash but insane when you learn to use it properly
reaper isn't great but it's usable
Virtual Private Network
oh shit
maybe try a vpn?
idk
Yes it is
reaper is good imo, great pogo and range, the only real disadvantage is attacking upward and attack speed
I actually never tried vpns tbh
What's that guy username that does hitless on mobile I need to ping him
Horrid sentence holy
Attack upwards isn’t even bad. How are yall missing it
somebody pls buy him a mobile controller
I need to know If he bought skong or not
weird hitbox compared to other, takes a while to get used
Lurienian
i honestly really like reapers design, maybe im the only one though because its a low skill floor crest thats avaible early to assist the player
The reason there’s so much debate about what crest is the best is because tc did an amazing job balancing them
Am I the only beast crest hater here? Pain in ass to get, trash pogo and can't even heal without enemies risking getting killed
-# architect
and the game hasnt been on that long, most people dont know how the game works xD
so no consistent healing
Yeah the one with the cat pfp ty
Beast is quite divisive
maybe its my skill issue with beast crest idk
Yeah but also shards lol
Its not bad its just hard
Chat, can we rate crests on how fun they are to use?
why make your life harder if it can be easier
Witch tops 100%
hunter crest top 1
silksong is hard enough lmfao
beast is fine, i dont enjoy it because its annoying for hitless
@compact robin sorry for ping but have you bought skong or did you just pirate it on mobile? Pure curiosity, I'm not against piracy
Beast is a perfectly useable and powerful crest if used properly
Its easy if you can learn the pogo
The parasite hates EVERYONE bro even silkeaters
Agreed
Beast is amazing on bosses
its easy if you learn, welcome to silksong xD
Just started my beast crest only playthrough. It’s actually pretty fun to learn by using in game progression to teach you how to use its specific playstyle. Trying to learn on a 100% save is much harder
you literally heal by hitting enemies
how are you risking to get killed
also the pogo is subjective
it's just difficult
But struggles in platforming sections
crest discourse again?
It’s almost like different crests fit different playstyles and different people play the game differently
It never ended
while face tanking enemies you still get hit so you lose health (skill issue ik) and healing depends on the amount of enemies and stuff so its really inconsistent, you can heal 1 mask or 3 or 0
its not bad atm
everything comes to an end
I'd eat
Not crest discourse
Crests and shipping locked to dedicated threads when
It has poisonous berries in it
Idc
And also a whole maggot
Okay
crest discussion is fine as lone as no one is being and ass, which atm it is chiil
Shipping channel would be fire so i could block it
beast crest pogo had the most i frames btw
from all the pogos
What does “atm” means btw
at the moment
Im gonna post something mossed up
The most popular ship is banned
Thx
icl silksong's Trek of Torture will be so annoying
What's that
path of pain
how much do you need to optimize to get the speedrun achievement
Nice name for it
first time i freed this guy i thought he ruined my grand reed farm
not that much, just have a route in mind (you can even get additional nail upgrade from whispering vault pale oil)
I think shipping in general is better off locked to a thread because it leads to a lot of annoying discourse and convos
thx
Very very little. I got it accidentally on my second playthrough 💀
only 2 crest's pogos start immediately
wanderer and witch iirc
i'm trying to work out the logistics of getting speedrunner and twisted child in a single run
yeah because it’s also the worst ship
speedrun and steelsoul achievements left, I really don't want to...
defintely possible only need clawline to get the child
First thing I see, w
y'know its weird that the parasite is afraid of the void
The main roadblock for anything is just hhg
Bro got 1 right
they do NOT start immediately
hardest part will probably be the fight with gms
speed completion can be easily done in under 15 hours, out of the 30 hours you're given
not even 1
Hunter doesn’t start immediately?
(this means both achievements, which means i haven't ever practiced a cursed gms fight)
There’s like a slight windup
I see where they are coming from, but come on, she literally calls her a child
ig it's not your play style then
but that doesn't mean it sucks
<@&283547423706447872>
The two are shaman and witch
So trues
they never learn...
.1 second but it's annoying
no
Free money
im cooked
there's like a very small windup
No more free money
wait can you get clawline before cogwork dancers
Mods

Like every other hornet ship is at least somewhat better than lacenet REGARDLESS of the child stuff
and beast does too
I started this whole discussion with "am I the only one who doesn't like beast" so just explaining why I don't like it, not saying its bad because I suck at it
Ok anyways
I don’t like hornet shipping
Just go to songclave then whiteward
What about horce?
100% one is very forgiving imo
Any% much harder but not too strict still imo
Except if you cant do high halls on 5hp and nail 2, that was what pained me the most (so I just got a dose of pale oil and solved this)
Shipping isn't really my thing in general, tbh
horce IS lacenet
She doesn’t seem like the type of person to really like things
oh my bad then
it's totally okay if you don't like it
careful
Horce is a tuff name but doesn't change the ship itself
team cherry really said "fuck it, turn half of the map into a citadel" lmao
I prefer horse
I ain’t even shipping them
I prefer boating 
Damn I keep saying nail I forget hornet uses a needle I just call everything nails
Because every problem can be solved with a hammer and nails
i think shipping can work in hollow knight but most every ship the community makes is horseshit
just started act three and i’m on bell eater
where the fuck is bell beast?
That’s what they were gonna do to coral gorge
yay
But they changed it to asscheeks citadel
can we stop sexualizing bugs in the first place pls
Shipping is pretty justfied in any universe with canon couples yeah
shawkra? garbage, any other popular ship that i cant name? dookie
defeat bell eater first, then your question will be answered
Groal x khann is fire
Just not my thing
What is this random ass shi
i want funny nuanced ships, like eva x mask maker
key isn't all that useful anyway
Shawkra is conceptually ok to me but it wouldn't work because shakra Dies
Wanderer's!!
hunter, architect, reaper launch you downward
its time for me to show this sentinel who's the best
I only do it to piss ppl off
mmm
What about khann x karmelita
Hive knight and hornet
There's no ships in this game I haven't seen a single boat yet
There's a raft technically in fleatopia 
Sprintmaster swift x garmond
is it normal to turn feral whenever i have circlet equipped
not really
they're like really noticeable
just wait for sea of sorrows
spiders eat bees, not fuck them
S.S. karak is ready to be set out to sea
This is hollow knight
you can get into shellwood with just swift step and a key via wormways
Not as noticeable but still noticeable as fuck
Yeahhhhhhhh
I can't believe team cherry is adding Ships to silksong it sooo overs.
i always do it

i cant wait till sea of sorrows then i have one more boss to fight in the pantheon 😭
okay
just because you don't like it doesn't mean it has to have a rework tho
OMG TWO SHIPS
zote x knight romance scene when
i ship zylotol and pavo
Also hornet lived in the hive
ship them


W ship
I'm guessing 4 bosses
dumb ahh bees
zoteboat x zoteboat ❤️
Battleship minigame
just to spite the speedrunners
Fine pins x silver bells (The Items) still undefeated btw
Zoteoteboatoat
battleship as in the tabletop? Hell yeah
I ship cornifier and izelda
when zote dlc to silksong
Based
Yeyeye exactly
Yoooo this ships sucks ass bro 😂
Let’s ship 2 conchflies and clover dancers
Better than shawnet
I ship green prince and green prince
these ships are fire ngl
What are we doing anymores maaan 😂
pollip pouch x tacks
And conchfly and conchfly
by time all dlc is released pantheons gonna be over an hour long
Pollip pouch x architect
Pollip pouch x dogshit
its already 43 minutes ish
There's gonna be 6 pantheons watch
Is POF fun?
ain't no way anyone will force me to do pantheons in silksong
Why do you ship dog shit with dogshit
non-optional items i think i'll need to get to optimize boss fights
-volt filament
-EVERY pale oil i can get my hands on
-wanderer crest
-pollip pouch
You clearly never stepped on Legos in your life and that will change in 3 hours
Actually very possible
Because they relate to eachother
It is yeah
if you like the mechanics of silksong you will like pantheon of pharloom imo
With dlc bosses, 6 pantheons is very likely
Peak discussion
I will strap you down in a chair and make you do it
Pof = pantheon of fiarlongo because pop = path of pain
does any of this seem unnecessary
especially since i need to do the great taste of pharloom
No way to abbreviate easily
I am a bit sociopathic but theres a limit pal
Is the boss order and bench placements fair?
I think I will try to do rof(radiant pantheon of pharloom) when dlc releases. I really like silksong combat
Btw fiarlongo is the Portuguese translation to pharloom
For speedruns? I mean if you're doing 100% you have to go for it anyway, the earlier the better
can't wait to fight beastfly v2 radiant with extra health, ts will be so fun
this was actually fun
I dont have the mental energy to do absrad radiant
I would say so
Second sentinel be like: "oh you're not haunted mb"
Its just not worth it
i love his fight
nah i want to get the twisted child and speedrun achievement in a single run
what if we put void in a glass and made it a tool
What is the most unfair part?
You’ll have all upgrades
trust me
is second sentinel a dude or a woman
ain't doing that even with these
it's a clanka
Why did second sentinel flash us
Robot, wiki says ungendered
non binary
Based on the voice, I think they are woman
wouldn't it be binary?
im biased, i fucking hate shakra and zango, ik they arent the most bs, people will probably be annoyed by having to do one mandatory arena before khann, (arenas are included in pantheon due to limations i assume)
no because it has no coding
Unconfirmed iirc
oh man
wsg
but its a robot
no, has every number besides 0 and 1
it's powered by soul
darn
can't even make a robot joke
welp its 1 am that's enough silksong
bye chat
it's a non-binary robot cause it's powered by soul
as opposed to code
Bye
too much of silking the song
i assume it's gonna be best if i get cursed right before the gms battle
Emotional support sherma
but from there i gotta do some planning
why are we saying non binary instead of genderless
10 hp bro really is ralsei
because we were making robot jokes
i'm playing cotl rn
I'm not doing those two in tandem tbh I just know I couldn't
But if you're running volt filament and cursed you can't actually cast spells right? Since they cost 4
Or am I just dumb
3v1, is that a gangsong
first we silk, then we song
The robots do seem to have some programming and directive of some kind even if they are soul powered, they are all clockwork though so it's obviously not like binary code
hi sherma
I would rather beat abs rad radiant twice in a row than do ts
Not related to filament you just can't like do anything with your silk other than clawline
but it isn't coded with 0s and 1s
I really wanted to like shakra Seth and pinstress as bosses
why tf is there an area called silk cradle?
Bounce is fun tho
Yeah
yeah i know
but i think i'm gonna have to spam the crap out of spells before i fight gms
Pure vessel as the roaring knight
because Silk is in it
Nkg as jevil
Zango is really bs tho
we have a different definition of fun then
anyways
Difficulty or what
Juggle and bounce are fun as fuck
If they were deltarune characters
watcher at the edge*
Design similarities?
Pure vessel is definitely roaring knight material
Lore similarities?
wanderer's is probably the best for finishing off bosses as quickly as possible
then there are servitors that use runes
Pretty much
I mean it probably does help a lot, so I'd say worth the time sink
oh wait bounce, yeah bounce is easy, juggle is trash, would rather do dodge
Architect:
Like if they had a place in deltarune
i lowk thought this one guy was called shawarma
beast:
i don't have time to grind shell shards
Dodge is trash more than juggle
i bow or refuse?
sherma if he was awesome
Za shawarma and za bepsi
dodge is rng so with enough attempts I can finish it, juggle is skill so must get good = bad
i bow to the bepsi
shanga
anyways wanderer's is prolly the best for a speedrun
This logic is perfect.
why is altars of apostasy lowkey peak
not for any%/true ending% because its out of the way
Hunter
easiest gauntlet, quick attack speed, and an easy pogo
why is silk of song lowkey sea of sorrow
wanderer is the best overall imo if you aren't a tool spammer (aka grinding shards after every fight)
i'm shit at platforming with hunter
Ultra
i prefer the world looks red but i also love altars of apostasy
Kill?
in 100% speedrun they use shamans i think at endgame
Your takes are lowkey crazy
the next dlc is probably going to be called steel suburbs honestly
Wanderer is easy to pick up tbh so I went for it in my run for the achievement
It does cost time but I'm better at wanderer than at hunter so that's why I went for it in the first place
to keep the s
yeah
i like reaper but it is TERRIBLE for speedrunning
Btw, the only crest you should get for sub 5 is evo hunter imo
Steel supercalifrigilisticexpealidocious
can't wait to fight lost groal in sea of sorrow
How many open tool slots does it need tho
First evo. You don’t need anything except for needolin for that
what if i used caravan skip
I actually never visited eva but maybe it's a good strat to go for hunter evo
can we balance out yellow tools so most of them aren't useless compared to other colors
and got clawline before getting drifters cloak
what if instead of silk song it was called song silk and instead of sea of sorrow it's called sorrow of sea
OK that's a great point lmao
it's gonna be hell but is it possible
we would song the silk
What if instead of Japanese food u were food Japanese
You meant needolin?
Maybe in dlc
nope
clawline
bro does anyone actually use the focus from hunter crest
I would be a japanese made from food
except like speedrunners i guess
Sushi man
You can’t tho
He’s made of sushi
Everyone who knows how to play the game
i can't think of any instances past greymoor that requires the drifters cloak
I don't because I play like a drunk driver
i may be wrong and also stupid
even experienced players get hit
A lot of them
between greymoor and clawline?
cradle climb
Chat when silksong
You can get hit 1-6 times. You can reload(or how is its called) the focus
for example
i mean technically you are always using the focus since its built into hunter crest but like youre never really gonna get its full potential cause youre bound to get hit unless ur cracked at the game or something
love them both
you wouldn't know because of your limited mind
ifyou get hit it resets the focus full doesnt it?
Freedoms just a penubra phantasm for big shots about the world revolving
