[graceful oyster]

I too should start claiming singular words as my own

[near mirage]

wrong server mb

[marsh spoke]

There were times where this chat was more mature

[novel pulsar]

Nono send it back

[marsh spoke]

I feel like with the passage of time we're turning less nature rather than more

[worldly valve]

deprivation is mine

[strange comet]

"arong eevee"

[graceful oyster]

There are times for it and now is not one of them

[worldly valve]

returning to nature

[unkempt steeple]

idk maybe they're overcorrecting for the broken charms (grubsong wasn't broken at all imo)

[marsh spoke]

Is this what they call decadence?

[icy crow]

I cannot wait to disappear from this server once I finish Steel Soul 100%

[novel pulsar]

Grubsong is only good in colo 3

[exotic cedar]

I'm done with silksong but im still here

I like chatting here

[unkempt steeple]

i only used grubsong for "well what else do I use" builds that i used for exploration on my first playthrough (mostly made out of one notch charms) and the white palace climb

[novel pulsar]

Grubsong and hiveblood are actually kinda lame in the white palace

[icy crow]

I won't type here anymore until the DLC drops pretty much

[unkempt steeple]

I almost gave up on the nameless town limb cuz I didn't have my grubsong deep focus combo

before I realized you can get silk from the centipedes

[icy crow]

They're useful in White Palace

[novel pulsar]

They can be switched for way better charms like the obe that makes u heal double

[unkempt steeple]

I allways had almost full soul with grubsong in white palace

[exotic cedar]

Idk why i radianted pv and nkg with grubsong

Like no reason

[unkempt steeple]

i used grubsong with deep focus

[novel pulsar]

I actually found them quite the notch waste while playing and switched them for others but everyone has their own opinions and i'm not here to go crazy over them.

[exotic cedar]

Wait i meant grubberflies elegy

I thought we were talking about that charm

I'm so fucking stupid goodbye

[strange comet]

Why are yallt talking about HK in sk discussion

[unkempt steeple]

i couldn't be bothered to have to wait with hiveblood

[novel pulsar]

I never really noticed how much soul gg gives you upon getting hit.

[icy crow]

We do be discussing anything here but Silksong

[novel pulsar]

Honestly yea i can see how it can be good bu as i said already there's better stuff that can be used

[novel pulsar]

Grubsong druid's eye

[marsh spoke]

grubsong is a looooooooooot better than druids eye

[unkempt steeple]

what 1 billion years without sea of sorrow does to a fandom

[marsh spoke]

grubsong gives you 14 soul on damaged directly in the bank with no other gimmicks

[novel pulsar]

ALCHEMIST CREST PHARLoOM BAY GIVE IT TO ME AISHWKSJSJSJASDFGGHJKL

[icy crow]

Once I finish Steel Soul 100% I'll enter an impossible deep slumber and only awaken when the bell tolls

[unkempt steeple]

who the fuck used druid's eye outside when they first got it in their first playthrough and then took it off as soon as they any other tool

[marsh spoke]

needing 2 hits to use the silk is just stupid im sorry tc

[icy crow]

Are we perchance meeting Zyotol's master in Pharloom Bay?

[unkempt steeple]

that corpse looks like it zyotol's... horns? so probably

[marsh spoke]

Zylotol's hair

or lack thereof. He's canonically bald

[icy crow]

I would not be surprised if Team Cherry made Zyotol's master die way before we even reach her

[unkempt steeple]

he was bald

[novel pulsar]

I'm pretty sure zygote confirmed his master is at the edge and the edge of pharloom is like decently sea themed so yea. If he doesn't say anything about his master i'm still pretty sure he does talk about plasmium and the edge of pharloom so yea

[unkempt steeple]

that corpse screams crest for me

I wonder what that crest would do

[icy crow]

Alchemist Crest: Architect but chemicals

[unkempt steeple]

what would that be

[novel pulsar]

Alchemist crest. Probably binding gives you plasmium masks instead of normal ones (prob like 5 of them, seems fair to me)

[icy crow]

Binding makes you get high

[marsh spoke]

5 masks is fucking insane

[icy crow]

(Side-effects from chemicals)

[marsh spoke]

3

[graceful oyster]

Would be stupid op

[novel pulsar]

Yea but u can't heal them back

Cuz it's plasmium

[unkempt steeple]

would you just get plasmified at some point

[novel pulsar]

So 5 just makes sense

[marsh spoke]

NO IT DOESNT

[unkempt steeple]

you can heal them back

otherwise the crest only works once

[marsh spoke]

YOU CAN BIND 10 MASKS WITH SYLPHSONG

[novel pulsar]

No once you lose a plasmium mask it's lost

[marsh spoke]

Js free plasmium overdose bro what are we doing

[novel pulsar]

Aight let's make it 4

[unkempt steeple]

so you have a limit on your binding?

[cloud wind]

sup gamers, is it possible to scale up spike walls with beast pogo?

[novel pulsar]

And silk production is nerfed as shit

[unkempt steeple]

like you can't bind unless you have 0 blue masks?

[graceful oyster]

I don't have words to explain how stupid the "you can't heal them back" is

[marsh spoke]

yeah

[harsh garden]

I fucking hate lost lace

[cloud wind]

I'm still learning beast pogo, so pretty curious if it's "bad cuz it can't do certain shit" or "bad because you need to learn it"

[icy crow]

I would like if Hornet learns the scrapped diving ability from Hollow Knight

[marsh spoke]

Im fried

[verbal steeple]

nah actually

[graceful oyster]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/586931790208434203/1454612468121866300/431xmupz428g1.gif

[verbal steeple]

if an alchemist crest were to happen

[icy crow]

It needs more impact frames

[verbal steeple]

it should give u 2 plasmium masks

[novel pulsar]

Actually yk what the bind giving only 3 masks makes sense cuz yk stacking them is a thing so

[verbal steeple]

because plasmium masks are lowkey better than normal masks

[unkempt steeple]

also atp just make the crest auto-plasmify hornet

[verbal steeple]

so it should give u 2 instead of 3 like normal binding

[unkempt steeple]

since you only need one extra blue mask

[novel pulsar]

Yeah no alchemist crest would def give 2 plasmium masks per heal

[graceful oyster]

Alchemist crest would be insanely boring please TC don't make a plasmium crest it's NOT that cool

We already have the tool

[harsh garden]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-hollow-knight-silksong-silksong-hornet-bell-beast-gif-7811662190976658415

[verbal steeple]

what if the alchemist mask would handle plasmium overdose in the sense that u can't overdose with it

[marsh spoke]

Can we just like get more plasmium tools or something

[verbal steeple]

instead you're able to stack infinite amounts of plasmium masks

[marsh spoke]

I dont want a crest dawg

[unkempt steeple]

tc make a crest that sends a trillion missiles to elderbug's house

[verbal steeple]

you're getting more crests and you're going to like it

[exotic cedar]

New crests for more crest discourse!!!

[novel pulsar]

But it makes sense and it's cool

[verbal steeple]

we need more crest discourse

[unkempt steeple]

the void crest is the best crest

[verbal steeple]

more crest for the crest discourse

[novel pulsar]

I like the concept of an alchemist crest

[marsh spoke]

But what do you even do with a lifeblood crest

[unkempt steeple]

what else can you do with plasmium tho

[verbal steeple]

make it give 2 normal plasmium hearts

[marsh spoke]

Man I just want lifeblood core back

[novel pulsar]

You bind plasmium masks and the attacks uhh idk sbt them

[verbal steeple]

and since it's a lifeblood crest. it should be able to theoritically HANDLE lifeblood

which means no OVERDOSE. and instead u can stack multiple blue health

[icy crow]

We need tools that can apply ice damage

[verbal steeple]

imagine being able to continously bind more blue masks

[marsh spoke]

Oh my god that's horrible

[novel pulsar]

Idk man overdose makes sense

[verbal steeple]

i know

[marsh spoke]

I can and I don't want to

[verbal steeple]

that's why it'd be good

[graceful oyster]

You guys are awful at this

[cursive pagoda]

GUYS SEA OF SORROW WILL INTRODUCE HYDRATION MECHANICS

[novel pulsar]

The HUD would just flood that's literally why overdosing is a thing

[strange comet]

DRINK WATER BITCH

[verbal steeple]

you all heard of hungry knight. now get ready for thirsty silk

[icy crow]

We should get tools that can apply frost damage. Memory Crystal does jackshit

[unkempt steeple]

the water is bile... and the sea? well... the sea is sorrow

[novel pulsar]

Like hungry knight but you need to drink?

[verbal steeple]

thirsty silk

[novel pulsar]

Thirsty knight?

[unkempt steeple]

they should add a muckmaggot crest

[strange comet]

Hungry knight?

[verbal steeple]

thirsty song or thirsty silk

[novel pulsar]

Bound the crest of the stilkin

I think that's their name

[exotic cedar]

We should be able to bind lugoli so we can use pans as a weapon

[verbal steeple]

we need an eva crest

[exotic cedar]

Team cherry you are free to hire me

[verbal steeple]

why does binding eva give an ability instead of a crest

[novel pulsar]

We need everything crest

[verbal steeple]

she's literally meant to be an artifical higher being

you'd think she'd be a crest atleast

not just some ability in the back of hornet's mind

[novel pulsar]

I feel like all we need is the alchemist crest and the chef/stilkin crest that's it

[verbal steeple]

anyways time to enter sinners road with..... cursed crest....

[novel pulsar]

And the fisherman crest ofc

[verbal steeple]

can the parasite enter kratt instead please?

[novel pulsar]

Leave my boy alone

[cloud wind]

so, just entered Widow without Drifter's cloak... uh... I might need to go back for the cloak, I'm not that masochistic lmao

[unkempt steeple]

why

[verbal steeple]

really hope i can glitch my way into chef lugoli with cursed bind

[novel pulsar]

You can do that?

[verbal steeple]

wormways

[cloud wind]

act 1 is more open than you'd think, ngl

[verbal steeple]

it's always wormways

[novel pulsar]

Btw u can just pogo the bells on the ground no need for drifter

[unkempt steeple]

you don't need the cloak for this fight I think

just pogo the ground bells

[verbal steeple]

if u think: "how'd they do that?" 99% of the time? the answer is wormways

[cloud wind]

I did like, Marrow -> March -> Dash and dip from Docks -> Wormways -> Shellwood -> Widow's a bad idea so I might go bully lace first

[verbal steeple]

it's always wormways

[cloud wind]

Wormways my beloved

[novel pulsar]

You got a key?

[cloud wind]

ye

without buying maps, it's oddly easy to get 500 by the time you get dash

[brave geyser]

Steel soul barbed bracelet is lowk fun

60 hit gms

[manic knoll]

im back did sea of sorrow get out

[novel pulsar]

So u jus skipped 2 main areas like randomly

[cloud wind]

and unless you're a god gamer, you probably want dash anyways

[novel pulsar]

I would suggest getting atleast the closk

Cloak*

[cloud wind]

eh, skipped is a bit of an "off" word, but yeah, different routing

[verbal steeple]

real games always get dash through hunter's march instead of deep docks

[cloud wind]

I def want the cloak before widow lmao

[verbal steeple]

i always fight the skarr guard WITHOUT dash

[cloud wind]

ngl, it's way comfier, way less bs to deal with

[novel pulsar]

Greymoor doesn't have anything cool ngl it's just the average uk experience

[verbal steeple]

real

[cloud wind]

learning beast crest run (modded to start with it), it's hella fun

[icy crow]

Thread Storm

[cloud wind]

dueling these sword-wielding ants in beast mode is sick

[verbal steeple]

i'm using that mod too

[cloud wind]

yeeee

[verbal steeple]

except i'm doing it to do a cursed crest run

[cloud wind]

ohhhhh

[verbal steeple]

because i'm a maschoist

[cloud wind]

I wanna get better at every crest before "The" Randomizer comes out 👀

[novel pulsar]

Yea but like i'm pretty sure tc wanted the player to do fields and greymoor before shellwood

Uhhh idk

[cloud wind]

I mean, maybe... though I imagine the "intended" path fights Moorwing and Judge too, and my blind playthrough deadass just didn't

like, you can find weird shit even without knowing about it 👀

[novel pulsar]

I also didn't do judge

[cloud wind]

Moorwing skipped through caravan (though I think entering greymoor through bellhart also skips it?)

[novel pulsar]

I went with the phantom way (by accident cuz i didn't even know she took you to act 2)

[cloud wind]

and Phantom Route is the best route, finding that was like "wait there's another area?* x3

[novel pulsar]

Yea

I ended up beating the last judge later ofc but still

[cloud wind]

Sinner Road -> first pog
Hidden Mist -> what the hell
Phantom (technically Bilewater? or is that Underworks?) -> siiiiiick, one of best fights too
and then wat act 2

[verbal steeple]

i found phantom through bilewater in my first playthrough

[novel pulsar]

The mist is actually so good

[cloud wind]

oh holy, that must've been awful/awesome

[novel pulsar]

You can get there from bile?

[cloud wind]

ye, you'd need to enter bile through sinner's road and walk like, allllll the way around

[novel pulsar]

I thought it was bilewater but like connected to the underworks

[cloud wind]

it's hell

[verbal steeple]

well i only found that from way after act 1

[cloud wind]

oh, interesting

[verbal steeple]

only figured out phantom was there after act 2

[verbal steeple]

LMAO i keep getting more spool fragments but since i'm cursed

literally gaining nothing from that

wonder what happens when i interact with grey root tho...

actually wonder what happens if i curse myself

this mod usually replaces the crest u select at the beginning with hunter

so do i literally gain hunter crest from cursing myself with greyroot?

[cloud wind]

if I ever become brave enough to beat Beastfly with Beast Crest

I'll tell ya 😂

[novel pulsar]

I think i beat it with wanderer idk

It's a pretty easy boss when you rlly think about it

[verbal steeple]

i once did a beast crest beginning file

[cloud wind]

btw, funny thing I just realized... with beast crest, you don't need dash to challenge lace 😂

that beast pogo is Dash 2.0

[novel pulsar]

3 attacks and that's it

[verbal steeple]

and when i binded that beast crest i got hunter

[verbal steeple]

same thing with cursed

[novel pulsar]

Beast pogo is good sharp shadow

[verbal steeple]

if u precisely time your cursed crest bind u can get up there

also there's a way u can use ur cocoon to get there aswell

[novel pulsar]

Like idk it doesn't make sense nvm

[verbal steeple]

there's a explodable u can kill yourself with in that place

[cloud wind]

nice

also, man... replaying this game, all the bosses turn way easier

like, duh, but... I just melted lace

kinda wondering also, will beast crest make Chorus Skip easier 👀

what's the exact bonus from the bind, if y'all know? like, is it just attack speed + up to 3 heals?

[stable pilot]

I got hit by a spine while doing the fetch quest, 2h into steel soul, and I fell in lava and died

Last 2 deaths were in skarr shakra arena

And first death to bell beast

[novel pulsar]

Considering how there's already an architect crest, wouldn't it be cool if there was also a vaultkeeper crest and a conductor crest?

[stable pilot]

How would the conductors crest work?

[novel pulsar]

Idk

[stable pilot]

Would you just say: commit suicide, haunted bug! And they would?

[novel pulsar]

Most crests are based on silk

So prob this one would be song related

Idk

[stable pilot]

Vaulkeepers?

[novel pulsar]

I gotta sleep fr

[novel pulsar]

Idk maybe you use plasm cylinders instead of tools

[stable pilot]

You need sleep asap

You're not cooking at all

[bitter briar]

Skong

[verbal flame]

Finally
I beat siksog

[orchid locust]

silson

[verbal steeple]

now beat it in steel soul

and then beat it with cursed crest. and then beat steel soul cursed crest

and then beat the game with only taunt damage

and then beat the game hitless

[verbal flame]

Nooooooooooooooo😭

Am kinda busy with college

[verbal steeple]

y'know has anyone beat the game while starting with cursed crest?

i doubt i was the only one who had that idea

[verbal flame]

I heard I could get that achievement
But I was like "nah" and cured myself

[verbal steeple]

the achievement was beating GMS with cursed crest

but what i'm talking about is starting the game WITH cursed crest

[verbal flame]

Tourism

[verbal steeple]

and reaching 100% with cursed

[verbal flame]

Impossible(without mods)

[verbal steeple]

yeah obviously with mods

in order to start with cursed crest

[verbal flame]

Won't it be that hard
It won't be hard if you know how to dodge everything

[verbal steeple]

i could really use some tips from them if someone has done that

[verbal flame]

https://tenor.com/view/matrix-neo-keanu-reeves-power-windy-gif-15235043

[verbal steeple]

i mean yeah. but dodging is uh

easier said than done

also not only that. u don't get silk skills either. nor tools.

[verbal flame]

Oh yeah, that too

[verbal steeple]

currently i reached sinners road in my run

[verbal flame]

That was the reason why I immediately went to cure myself

[verbal steeple]

planning on doing phantom then returning to last judge

[verbal flame]

Last judge wasn't that tough
Took me 3 attempts to beat
But somehow, some "simple" bosses were harder😭

[dawn needle]

Two thing I find cool
-Phantom plays the Organ in an Exhaust Organ
-Karmelita signs her theme

[cloud wind]

boss report: beast crest is nuts, couldn't be bothered to skip him when beating him was deadass faster 😂

chorus more like deadrus

[exotic cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/ss-silksong-hollow-knight-hk-beast-gif-7167947808925894620

[cloud wind]

oh holy shit the skirt will be sick

anyhow, time to see if widow will actually be hard with beast crest (she might be?)

[verbal steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/reaper-crest-silkpost-silksong-average-average-reaper-crest-user-gif-11428658938507077422

[verbal flame]

As a reaper user
I lwk disagree
Git gud !!

[novel pulsar]

I am the globglogabgalab the shwabbledabblewabblegabbleflibbablabbablab

[verbal steeple]

haven't heard that shit in

so long

[novel pulsar]

Old shit

We uncs

[verbal steeple]

i just realized

[novel pulsar]

?

[verbal steeple]

the muck water won't be an issue with cursed crest

literally can't heal anyways

[novel pulsar]

I guess it wouldn't do much of a difference yea

[steady blaze]

THE LACQUER HAS BEEN DELIVERED AFTER LIKE 3H

[raven tinsel]

Is it possible for someone to mod the game to be able to play with Cursed Crest the entire game?

[steady blaze]

For sure

[verbal steeple]

there literally is

[verbal flame]

Super pain

[verbal steeple]

currently using it

[timber beacon]

question

shaman crest's binding grounds you during it to heal correct?

[raven tinsel]

Nice! cries in Switch Lite player

[verbal steeple]

it's a mod that lets u select whatever crest u want actually

[raven tinsel]

Yep

[verbal steeple]

lmao.

[steady blaze]

Why do you hate yourself

[timber beacon]

and focus sorta needs you to be grounded to heal right?

what if

[raven tinsel]

I want this so badly to do different type of full play throughs.

[verbal steeple]

also even if you're on the ground it still does a little jump and overrall makes binding slower

[steady blaze]

Actually i should shut up on that im trying to do 112% hitless steel soul

[verbal steeple]

i'm not only planning on doing an 100% playthrough with cursed

i am also planning on possibly doing a STEEL SOUL cursed run

i mean steel soul 100% wasn't that bad so surely cursed crest steel soul won't be that bad

-# even tho i almost died a bunch of times if it wasn't for plasmium

[cloud wind]

aight, widow is pretty tough on beast crest; very fun though, good shit

[verbal flame]

I died in steel soul in the most absurd way

I left steam deck for a minute without pausing it...

[raven tinsel]

Shaman is fun. I wish I got it sooner. I’ve only used once, and it was a test against Lost Lace to see if it was good against her. The heal didn’t feel too debilitating. Maybe it would be worse if I used it against a boss like Nyleth.

[verbal steeple]

i never use shaman because u just get it sooo late

[raven tinsel]

How does this work? If you get hit, do you save-quit, or do you delete the save and start over?

[verbal steeple]

that's why they should really implement a way to select a crest to start with like some sort of NG+ or somethin

[umbral ether]

i used shaman to beat lost lace and i did it without healing

[verbal flame]

I used shaman, but I hate that I must be on ground to heal myself

[steady blaze]

What is seekers soul for

[steady blaze]

The 2nd one

[umbral ether]

act 3 access

[verbal steeple]

that's a suprise tool that will help you later

[foggy fossil]

shut up team cherry

[timber beacon]

could shamans be technically bound to void or focused themselves on soul more than others?

[verbal steeple]

anyways now that i'm in sinners road

[raven tinsel]

I really am hoping for like a NG mode or something where you can choose whatever crest you want to start off with.

[verbal steeple]

i wonder if i'll be able to reach ass jim without double jump

u can reach the vent without double jump if u pogo on the alligators

but then there's a double jump section like in order to enter the arena of ass jim

[verbal flame]

Bilewater is worst place to be in
Any swamp locations in tough games are the worst

[verbal steeple]

after going through bile water multiple times

[raven tinsel]

Nah, Putrifued Ducts is worse imo.

[verbal steeple]

lowkey it starts to grow on you

[raven tinsel]

But the enemies in both areas are insufferable

[verbal flame]

That too
It counts as swamp

[verbal steeple]

sinners road is just trash. and putrified ducts is torture

[verbal flame]

But bilewater is bigger

[raven tinsel]

The music is beautiful lol

[timber beacon]

bilewater is pretty well,just annoying at times with stilkins
purified ducts suck because of fleatopia not being easy to access

[steady blaze]

Siners road isn't that bad

[raven tinsel]

Sinner’s Road is so disgusting for me

[verbal steeple]

theoritically speaking it's suppose to be less worse than bile water

but. there's just something about it. that makes it worse than bilewater for me

[raven tinsel]

Those roaches are disgusting

[timber beacon]

Sinner's road is tolerable for me ngl

[verbal steeple]

bile water is kinda fun but sinners road is just depressing

[timber beacon]

i just don't like the maggot water in general

[steady blaze]

The best area for me is blasted steps how about you guys

[verbal steeple]

I CAN ALMOST REACH THAT LEDGE

[rocky jolt]

chalamet

[verbal steeple]

cursed crest bind almost lets me reach that ledge... if only it allowed me to react much faster

[verbal steeple]

bilewater lowkey

[raven tinsel]

I like Bellhart and Songclave

#basic

[raven tinsel]

I genuinely despise the ones in Sinner’s Roads

[steady blaze]

Honestly

Bone bottom best village

[bitter briar]

Jevil

Wow it’s the freedom motif guy

[raven tinsel]

I was genuinely disturbed by ||Pilby’s death/the second Skull Tyrant|| in my first play through lol.

[steady blaze]

I was like "wait didn't i kill that guy?"

[steady blaze]

Why is songclave suplies harder than liquid lacquer

[gusty igloo]

strive 0:55 is the best thing ive heard in my life

[gusty crest]

im stuck on freaking moorwing bruh

[steady blaze]

Post nerf or realease patch

[gusty crest]

idk

[steady blaze]

So post nerf

[gusty crest]

probably

[steady blaze]

The 1.0 took me like 5h

After nerf 3 tries

[gusty crest]

im trying for 2-3 days

[steady blaze]

The strat is just stay away from the boss most of the time

[gusty crest]

how do i deal damage then?

[brave geyser]

I died in skull cave again bro

[steady blaze]

Pogo chain on him when he dashes

[brave geyser]

Ok so you can cheese him or skip him legally

Or deal with the attack giving you the most trouble which would be?

[gusty crest]

all of them

[brave geyser]

Yea just skip it

[gusty crest]

how?

[brave geyser]

Save 5 fleas

[cloud wind]

so, beast crest widow took like 15-ish tries; honestly wild, given with hunter I one-tried her 👀

[cloud wind]

or wormways? 👀

[gusty crest]

im missing 2 fleas

[brave geyser]

Far fields the marrow deep docks (2. 1 after dash. 1 next to the bell station) and hunters march

[coarse leaf]

yo

[brave geyser]

Purple

[cloud wind]

man, idk why, but I really like entering bellhart without ever seeing haunted bellhart

[gusty crest]

how do i get to hunters march?

[orchid locust]

is there a different cutscene for that?

[cloud wind]

cutscene no, but Pavo doesn't recognize her when you do it this way

I'm pretty sure he did when I did it the normal way on first playthrough (like 99% sure)

[verbal steeple]

dude

everytime i enter the mist i either have the best time of my life

or the worst

[cloud wind]

man, I just got reminded that beast has no blue slots, holy suffering 😂

[untold dune]

its funny how hornet just decides to beat up widow with absolutely no context

[cloud wind]

fr

even better for me, I don't talk to widow, I just garama her

[untold dune]

same lol

[cloud wind]

context? never heard of 'er

[orchid locust]

you can garama to start activation-required boss fights??

wrong reply

[untold dune]

only specific ones, like widow

[cloud wind]

you can't do that to all bosses, but like, you can do it to Seth as well

[untold dune]

i think karm too?

[wise thicket]

How do you do that

[strange knot]

What’s the topic rn?

[orchid locust]

can you garama gms directly instead of pressing challenge?

[cloud wind]

wormways

[cloud wind]

99% sure you can

[wise thicket]

Oh yah thanks

[cloud wind]

blessed be the wormways

[verbal steeple]

i think even GMS

[cloud wind]

best location in the game just because of how much it opens early on

early wanderer? wormways
early shellwood? wormways
early widow? wormways
blessed be the holy wormways

[verbal steeple]

I HATE I HATE THE MIST I AHTE IT IA HIETAEHITao nv8y3ti75287ovy925\

[orchid locust]

all hail zylotol 🙏

[untold dune]

hate bell beast with a passion? wormways

[strange knot]

Same

[strange knot]

All roads lead to wormways

[verbal steeple]

wormways is like the good version of rome

[untold dune]

early faydown cloak? wormways

[verbal steeple]

while bilewater is like the bad version

[orchid locust]

chat is this a solid resume??

[wise thicket]

Early act 3? Wormways

[strange knot]

It’s not bad

Bilewater is good

[verbal steeple]

i know

[naive jasper]

chat what silksong character should i make into a warrior cat next? so far ive made hornet, lace, crust king khann, sherma, and trobbio

[untold dune]

can you explain this gap in your resume from august to november 2024?

[naive jasper]

im outta ideas

[wise thicket]

The amount of times the silksong community overrated something in the game and made me incredibly anxious to fight/enter it and procrastinate so much only to find out this boss/area/couriers rasher isn't even that bad

[verbal steeple]

I HATE THE IMST SO MAUCOhg5voqp5yb8209

[cloud wind]

lmao, I had that with HK tbh, that game just wasn't as hard for me as people hyped it up to be... until p4 or so, at least

[orchid locust]

pharloom kinda collapsed i went on a personal and self-reflective journey to expand my skill set and i learned a lot about finance and b2b sales

[verbal steeple]

it's because people have different experiences

[strange knot]

That’s so true. same with hk. Like I thought pv was nearly impossible to beat

[wise thicket]

For me it kinda was but I enjoyed it, same with silksong

[untold dune]

unfortunately, after careful consideration, we decided to go with a more experienced candidate.

[cloud wind]

oh enjoy for sure

[wise thicket]

I think i didn't struggle as much with them cause I fought thk out of boredom a lot

[cloud wind]

it's a sick-ass game, and silksong is overall even better

[strange knot]

Yeah, sk is better imo

[verbal steeple]

SK is way more fun than HK imo

[cloud wind]

though one thing I kinda miss from HK, which may be induced by me spending hundreds of hours on randomizers, is that I can literally melt any boss from before godhome without thinking 😂

[verbal steeple]

like the shmovement in silksong is just so fun

[strange knot]

And combat

[fleet oriole]

I completed mr. Mushrooms quest but I didn't get the achievement , why is that ?

[orchid locust]

even a sweeper job at underworks be needing a masters degree and 18 years of experience these days 🥀

[cloud wind]

like, HK is easy as hell, which may be either skong skill talkin', or those hundreds of randomizer hours where I had to beat basically every boss base nail 😂

[wise thicket]

The movement is one of things I prefer in hollow knight tbh

[strange knot]

Did groal skip 4th try in my steel soul run!

[hybrid flare]

That is what i did in my steel soul speedruns yeah

getting OVERPOWERED shit is easy as hell

[untold dune]

kinda insane take icl

[cloud wind]

ngl, one thing I feel is really noticeable as lacking in HK

float... holy shit hornet's float is goated and underrated

[wise thicket]

Silksongs movement isn't bad but I feel like i have less control over Hornet than I did the knight which let to a lot of mistakes

[hybrid flare]

like fragile strength, fungal wastes, no downside since steel soul

[gusty crest]

all fleas saved

[strange knot]

Yeah, I’ve never seen a person who prefers hk’s movement more before

[verbal steeple]

i kinda get it

[strange knot]

Yeah, it’s more consistent

[untold dune]

i see their point yeah, tho i dont agree

[strange knot]

Dash is always the same distance

[gusty crest]

yeah

[verbal steeple]

i returned to hk after a while and the HK movement still feels good

[cloud wind]

HK movement... yeah, the amount of times I run with hornet into enemies is unreal 😂

[worldly umbra]

auauguguagghhghgfmhgmmhmhmmhmmmhhhmmmmmmmmmm

[verbal steeple]

i still can't fucking beat pantheon 5 sly jesus christ he sucks

[cloud wind]

it is annoying to spam click dash, but consistency is neat

[untold dune]

fun fact: on my first playthrough i didnt realise it was a sprint and i kept pressing the button as if it was only a dash 😭

[cloud wind]

lmao, ngl, once I learned sly, he became one of my favourite bosses; I still hate fighting PV tho 😭

[verbal steeple]

PV is easier than sly for me

sly is juts so small u literally can't see him starting an account

[wise thicket]

Me too and then I accidentally sprinted into lava

[cloud wind]

I think the only boss harder than PV for me is absrad herself... and absrad is also consequently harder than anything in skong

[untold dune]

i eventually figured it out but yea

[verbal steeple]

i changed my controls so i actually saw a button called "sprint"

[verbal steeple]

so i knew there had to be a sprint

[untold dune]

so did i, i just cant read

[cloud wind]

so like, weirdly enough... silksong, despite popular opinions, seems to be to be an "easier" game far as difficulty ceiling goes

[worldly umbra]

silksong fans cant read confirmed

[strange knot]

Watcher knights are harder than pv for me

[untold dune]

i cant read im an undertale fan

[paper knoll]

is ts alr for ||phantom|| (no red tools cuh no shell shards)

[wise thicket]

Meh, act 3 felt harder but that didn't mean i had trouble with it

[verbal steeple]

i remember your cant reads

[untold dune]

its you're cant reads dummy

[worldly umbra]

break the statue break the statue break the statue break the statue break the statue break the statue

[cloud wind]

I mean at least for bosses, anyhow

[wise thicket]

Hardest parts of silksong for me was hunters march my first time going through it and the underworks with 5 masks, afterwards I finally kinda understood the game

[paper knoll]

wdym

[verbal steeple]

memory crystal...

[worldly umbra]

the one from flick

[cloud wind]

like, yeah, regular enemies in skong are harder than some HK bosses (looking at you, Mossy and flukemarm)

[orchid locust]

well yeah but you gotta remember you're comparing base silksong vs hk with 4 dlcs, one of them literally being dedicated to hard boss fights

[paper knoll]

whats so bad about it

[gusty crest]

fluffy fleas

[verbal steeple]

not the best blue tool..

[strange knot]

Coral tower prolly was the hardest part for me

[orchid locust]

base silksong vs base hk? silksong is definitely harder

[graceful oyster]

Hey macarena

[paper knoll]

then what do i use

[cloud wind]

true, far as base HK goes... idk tbh, I guess base radiance would be the hardest, and that's way easier than Lace 3

[verbal steeple]

altho u don't really have much options

[wise thicket]

I found it more annoying than hard

[verbal steeple]

is not upgraded claw mirror better or worse than memory crystal?

[tepid mist]

It gives you a mid reward that can miss for getting hit you’re supposed to NOT get hit

[untold dune]

im tired of people comparing silksong difficulty to godhome anyway like its not fair

[strange knot]

I liked coral tower even tho it’s annoying at times

[paper knoll]

all i have is ts

[tepid mist]

Ikr

[graceful oyster]

It's outrageous, it's unfair!

[wise thicket]

Yeah absolutely, it was beautiful and had some interesting enemies

[verbal steeple]

hmmmmm maybe claw mirror instead of memory crystal tbf

[tepid mist]

I found it very fun, i was fully maxed out so it wasnt too hard nor annoying for me

[paper knoll]

ok

[cloud wind]

though ngl, I'll need like a good few playthroughs of skong before I truly get the feel for which bosses are the hardest to me to master

[orchid locust]

dale, a tu cuerpo alegria, macarena

[cloud wind]

first playthrough, I took more tries to beat bell beast than karmelita so... 😂

[verbal steeple]

i think i beat gms first try

lowkey gms is as easy as moss mother

[strange knot]

Only boss I beat first try is raging conch flies

[open narwhal]

@orchid locust

[strange knot]

And phantom I think

[orchid locust]

@open narwhal good night

[wise thicket]

As much as I love karmelita, the only thing I would change is that her block didn't just negate all damage and acted more like a parry followed by an attack, that led to me getting zero silk so much

[cloud wind]

I think past lace 3, in top 5 hardest bosses would definitely have trobbio 2 for me 😂

[tepid mist]

Ever since i finished silksong, ive been craving more metroidvanias to play so i started playing Blasphemous 2 days ago. Its pretty good and fun! Its not as fast paced as hk or ss and it doesnt have any major movement upgrades but the combat is tight and fluid, i’d recommend it!

[tepid mist]

Pharloom dark world

[strange knot]

And remove back steps, and fix hit boxes

[wise thicket]

Tv.. time?

[verbal steeple]

no deltarune brainrot

[untold dune]

cyber city is just one location within the library dark world smh

[cloud wind]

think one of the metroidvanias that actually stuck with me aside from the two HKs would be Axiom Verges (2nd one especially)

[wise thicket]

Hitboxes weren't bad for me tbh, and the backsteps I can get around but if I can't hit her before she does it then yeah

[open narwhal]

gn

[strange knot]

This happened 3 times

[tepid mist]

Ive only played a few metroidvanias which is
Dead Cells
Hk/ss
Blasphemous
Super Metroid

[strange knot]

Dead cells is a metroidvania?

[wise thicket]

???????

[tepid mist]

Its a hybrid of a metroidvania and a roguelike

[strange knot]

Idk what happened either

[untold dune]

is karm using flukenest?

[strange knot]

Prolly

[verbal steeple]

I HATE THE MIST

[cloud wind]

til you don't need to take the quest to fight skull tyrant 👀

[tepid mist]

Honestly i dont remember how many times it took me to beat karmelita. I was in a noisy room and half my brain was on the fight and half of it was on the conversation i was listening to

[cloud wind]

beast crest melts him, too

[verbal steeple]

the mist is lowkirkenuinly fryin my brain

[strange knot]

That’s why you don’t go early mist

[verbal steeple]

dude

in my steel soul i did this shit first try how am i messing up this badly

[strange knot]

Mist is ok with faydown

[verbal steeple]

cursed crest lowkey cant be this ass

[cloud wind]

interesting; even if you bring enough fleas before claiming the quest, he still asks you to bring them 👀

[gray ginkgo]

You forgot the field of pink and gold i can't believe you missed that best area

[verbal steeple]

it will fill up automatically

[tepid mist]

Needing faydown in the mist is pretty insane

[strange knot]

Same with every quest, pollip pouch, Druids eye

[untold dune]

you can also get special dialogue if you bring all 30 fleas before talking to him

[wise thicket]

American mcgees alice games are similar to metroidvanias at least in the exploration and upgrades sense, and they're just fun platformers which i enjoyed a ton

[strange knot]

I js suck

[gray ginkgo]

I just beat seth with the shaman crest

[verbal steeple]

really? what is it

[cloud wind]

ngl, I hoped for unique dialogue like when claming the quest from the wish board and getting 5; he's like "oh, I didn't even ask you and you already got them" or sth like that

[strange knot]

Figure it out

[cloud wind]

that's fun 👀

[verbal steeple]

fuck no

[untold dune]

something like "what a miracle! all our buddies have returned home!"

[tepid mist]

I’ll see, rn i have my eyes set on Nine Sols and Blasphemous 2 after i beat Blasphemous 1

[verbal steeple]

he doesn't know

[verbal steeple]

DO THESE PHANTOMS IGNORE MY I FRAMES?

[cloud wind]

aight, enough skonging for today, take care y'all

[verbal steeple]

I AM POGO'ING ON THEM WITH CURSED CREST I SHOULD HAVE IFRAMES

i am going insane

[untold dune]

found it

[verbal steeple]

cool

[gray ginkgo]

I'm going for the flower lady as my first heart boss

[verbal steeple]

i wonder tho. do they travel to putrified ducts immediatly?

[untold dune]

i dont think so

[verbal steeple]

or do they still go through greymoor then blasted steps then putrid

[tepid mist]

I think they travel to the spot that is currently available

[verbal steeple]

AAAAAAAAAAA

i have fallen over 10 times in this mist

what the fuck man

i did this first try 2 TIMES how am i messing up this badly

[tepid mist]

beginners luck

[strange knot]

Just go bell route

[verbal steeple]

when i get to phantom i am not leaving anything left of her

[gray ginkgo]

I am at 98 %

[untold dune]

theyre in act 2 already

[verbal steeple]

no i'm not

[untold dune]

oh lol

[strange knot]

I’ve never went by mist route and never be going mist route

[untold dune]

ah i mixed you up with the other guy

[verbal steeple]

i beat phantom and then immediatly go beat last judge

that's what i do after my first playthrough

[strange knot]

I should try cursed crest only after steel soul maybe

Sounds fun

[verbal steeple]

yeah... "fun"

[untold dune]

yeah i might try that out soon

[verbal steeple]

YES FINALLY THE EXHAUST ORGAN

[strange knot]

Gg!

[verbal steeple]

after this cursed crest run

i might genuienly try out steel soul cursed

[gray ginkgo]

After I beat nyleth who should I go after

[gray ginkgo]

Awesome

[strange knot]

Coral tower/karmelita/Green prince

[lusty grove]

which hearts do you have?

[stark lichen]

can I have the sea of sorrow tomorrow meme

[gray ginkgo]

Nylith which one do you think would be most fun to do next

[stark lichen]

khan

[verbal steeple]

ALRIGHT time to beat phantom

[stark lichen]

i like khan

[verbal steeple]

with cursed crest

[lusty grove]

personally, I think Khann would be a good one

[gray ginkgo]

Ok

[verbal steeple]

khann is so fun

[lusty grove]

he's easy, and his gaunglets are fun

[stark lichen]

😭

[verbal steeple]

khann's boss fight is like cogwork dancers

but solo and with more move sets

[stark lichen]

are you sad you can’t fight ||lace 3|| with cursed crest

[verbal steeple]

oh i'm gonna find a way

[stark lichen]

lol

[lusty grove]

Clover Dancers if both dancers were ghosts and Green Prince was just standing there

[verbal steeple]

either by forcing myself to use tooless skilless witch crest bindless

[strange knot]

Just switch to cursed crest once you enter the arena

[lusty grove]

you probably can with some glitch bs

[stark lichen]

oh crest storage

[verbal steeple]

idk how to dthat

[stark lichen]

but you can’t store cursedcrest

[strange knot]

Aren’t you playing with mods?

[lusty grove]

is there a glitch that allows that?

[strange knot]

There is, but I was speaking about mods

[lusty grove]

wait, I have an idea
using bench storage to quit right before getting the Witch Crest, so the game thinks you're not cursed anymore but you still have Cursed Crest

idk if that would work

but it is a possibility

[verbal steeple]

i just used cross stitch with cursed crest

[verbal steeple]

well. yeah but it's a mod that lets u select which crest u start with.

[lusty grove]

h... how?

[strange knot]

Cheater

[verbal steeple]

cutscene

[strange knot]

Oh

[verbal steeple]

so the mod might actually make it possible to fight lost lace 3?

i mean the mod took into account the fact u wouldn't be able to free bell beast without silk skills

so it removed the silk around it

[calm cargo]

After much procrastination I’ve started my speedrun attempt

[verbal steeple]

so maybe i would be able to fight lost lace

[lusty grove]

this is my plan
it has almost as much of a chance to work as Caretaker's plan, but it's worth the shot

[verbal steeple]

i keep saying lost lace 3 lmao

[calm cargo]

-15 minutes in I got dash

[lusty grove]

it could also lock you into Cursed Crest forever without changing how the game sees it, making it impossible to beat the game

[strange knot]

Btw, steel soul is so much more fun if you aren’t trying to speedrun

[lusty grove]

but there's a slim chance that it allows you to fight Lost Lace while Cursed

[verbal steeple]

i accidentally speed ran 100% steel soul lmao

[hollow ingot]

I just first try gms

[verbal steeple]

i got 2 boss hearts and realized: "wait. i'm under the 30 hour mark."

[hollow linden]

what is cursed crest?

[strange knot]

I prolly will do the same, cuz I’m only 5 hours in and already got faydown(ye I know it’s not that good time)

[hollow linden]

never heard of it

[verbal steeple]

how far did u reach into the game

probro

[strange knot]

It’s basically the best crest in the game but nerfed

[hollow linden]

dang

?where to get it

[verbal steeple]

have u met greyroot

[hollow linden]

who?

i just killed fourth chorus and got reaper's crest

[verbal steeple]

how far are u into the game?

OH. yeah i think it's better if u just play the game without us telling you

[hollow linden]

kk

[lusty grove]

leave this channel before you get spoiled

[verbal steeple]

u shouldn't be in this channel tbh. since it will have alot of spoilers

[rancid stag]

lowk farming for better ores to sell and use in the forge
ngl it's actually fun

[hollow linden]

kk

i did 112% hk tho 👍

[upper lark]

So I was fighting grand mother silk right. I got halfway through phase three on my first try

[lusty grove]

that's really good

[brave geyser]

Typical. Nice tho

[strange knot]

What game hi vessel btw

[verbal steeple]

what's the highest amount of mask shards u can get in act 1 in total?

[brave geyser]

6

[verbal steeple]

i seem to only at most get 5 but idk if that's really it

oh? how

[brave geyser]

Pebb
weavenest atla
wormways entrance
above seam stress hut
marrow/deep docks enemy gauntlet
shellwood

[verbal steeple]

OH

wait that techniaclly means u can get 7 then!

[brave geyser]

i did hear that before yea

[strange knot]

The one from pibb
The one in wormways
Weavenest atla
2 in far fields
Shellwood
Deep docks

[verbal steeple]

see there's another mask shard in far fields which normally requires u to get clawline

[brave geyser]

Why do you think that tho

[verbal steeple]

but if u use sharp dart u can get there

[brave geyser]

Ah

[plain bloom]

i love watching playthrus of people at the beginning of the game. I remember it being hard, but now I'm like, "man those enemies are easy, why are they struggling lol" I love the skill climb I've done over the course of the game play

[verbal steeple]

actually maybe u can even do it without sharp dart not sure

[brave geyser]

Speaking of that i just died there in my barbed soul run

[verbal steeple]

i'm gonna see if i can do it with cursed crest

dang

[brave geyser]

Right after gms too ;)

[compact elm]

where do I go

[verbal steeple]

wouldn't let that shit happen to me

[brave geyser]

I'd say get the one on the right first

[verbal steeple]

hm.....

something wrong with this image..... i can feel it...

[upper lark]

You go to the fourth and play needolin. Fourth chorus

[brave geyser]

Mother

[compact elm]

why is she still there while ur cursed

[upper lark]

They aren't turned into wood after your cursed that's what it is

[lusty grove]

that's not Greyroot, that's Greenroot

[upper lark]

Greenroot 😭

[plain bloom]

my question too

[crystal geyser]

important lore question for a fic im writing
was there some time between the end of hollow knight and hornet leaving for silso

[fiery hamlet]

its implied that at least some time passed but its never really specified

[upper lark]

We don't know. We don't even know if the game is before or after hollow knight

[fiery hamlet]

its definitely after

[compact elm]

after because of lost lace ending

[mighty mango]

what crest build do yall rec for surface climb

[crystal geyser]

okay thanks
also why did hornet leave for pharloom again

[compact elm]

the knight appears as the shade lord so obviously after

[rocky jolt]

blud still on this

[fiery hamlet]

im not sure but I think she probably got word of the haunting or something

[compact elm]

so we could play silksong

[mighty mango]

its after, hornet refrences hallownest and the shade lord appears which only happens after hk

[mighty mango]

she got captured

[compact elm]

doesnt mr mushroom also mention it

🤔

[crystal geyser]

but like she had to be at least near pharloom to be captured

i assume she went seeking answers or something idk

[rocky jolt]

bro there is literally a relic that says hornet was captured by citadedl bugs in the kingdom of the white wyrm (pale king)

[crystal geyser]

oh nvm lol

[glad oxide]

Meow

[harsh yarrow]

@proud jay Give me a few seconds, I'll do a quick showcase of the WIP Wyrmcrest
I gotta remove a failed attempt at the new passive behavior though

[crystal geyser]

well ig i can rework the plot slightly to make that work

[proud jay]

okay

[eternal berry]

do yall find lace 2 difficult

[wise thicket]

Nah, kinda like Hornet 2 in difficulty

[devout oracle]

even tho i made it that far, i can definitely say, this guy is worse than the primal aspids

that fucking bird that i hate

[eternal berry]

ok bc i just beat her on my second try but i could have sworn i saw some people complaining a ton about her

maybe im mixing her up with ll

[graceful oyster]

Opposite most things in Silksong I have actually grown to hate Squatcraws MORE since my 1st playthrough. I didn't mind them at first.

Now I think they're awful.

[wise thicket]

I personally didn't have trouble with most of the bosses in silksong, aside from broodmother the unraveled and last judge

I played hollow knight for a while before silksong tho so it could just stem from that

[steady blaze]

WHY TF IS SONGCLAVE SUPLIES HARDER THAN LIQUID LACQUER

[eternal berry]

relatable

[harsh yarrow]

Very basic look at it
Moveset is just ""lifted"" (It was a MASSIVE pain) from the Shamans Crest minus the Dash Slash (I plan on giving it the same slash travel effect soon)
Crest offers 4 slots at the moment, 1 white, 1 pink (supports both tools and spells) and 2 blue
The Bind is old, and I seem to have removed the patch to make it actually update the UI properly, but its currently a 4 notch of silk for 2 masks, same time as standard

[eternal berry]

mount fay has no enemies

[steady blaze]

Yeah but just why not make songclave have 3hp and lacquer like 1

It would be funny

[eternal berry]

radiant mount fay

[steady blaze]

I litaraly did that in my winning lacquer run

[tiny geyser]

Where do you get that pincushion - red tool or smth, I forgot it's name?

[steady blaze]

I only got hit once for 2 masks in siners road

[harsh yarrow]

Current plan is to return the bind to the normal cost, and have it speed up the regeneration of silk hearts, with an after bind effect that dramatically speeds up silk heart regeneration, and uncaps the amount of silk you can regenerate for 5-10 seconds, canceled if you get hit
It seems like a nice middleground between full Kingsoul soul regen, and not making players stand about forever

[tiny geyser]

Driftlin

[eternal berry]

can you really call that an enemy

[tiny geyser]

Mnemonid

[tiny geyser]

[tropic tide]

Would anyone be willing to gift me Hollow Knight: Silksong on Steam?

please :3

[heady iron]

Sure I need your bank login info

[lusty grove]

sure, just give me your credit card number

[proud jay]

that's an interesting concept you have here, but are you sure about 0 yellow slots?

[graceful oyster]

Monther

[proud jay]

also I really like that binding animation

wait is it vanilla?

[lusty grove]

4 enemies

[proud jay]

I've never seen vanilla ground binding

[harsh yarrow]

And because I mentioned in Hecubas stream, I also considered a passive effect of giving the Needolin the abilty to extract silk from enemies/bosses that sing to it when the Wyrm Crest is equiped, but that doesnt make complete sense

[hollow linden]

that sounds like a silk issue

[lusty grove]

5, actually

[elder ruin]

Why isn't skull tyrant part 2 spawning 😞

[harsh yarrow]

Its just the Shamans crest bind anims, just it doesnt force you onto the ground

oh ok

[hollow linden]

https://tenor.com/view/csl-chad-sinj-leeds-undernet4-sinj-gif-11357555933827400993

[proud jay]

other than that I think it's a really good design

[tiny geyser]

Where can I get the Pinpillow, Tacks, and Curvesickle?

[harsh yarrow]

Then it became an idea for an "overcharged" slot crest that'd have 2 slots that could accept anything while amplifying their power, and it'd be the effect for the Spider Strings
but then I decided that it'd just be something to give the Needolin, and upgrade with the Spider String

[last dew]

i've never bothered with shaman
does it force you to be on the floor to heal (if you're not on it) or does it just not work midair?

[tight viper]

You're in A3, yeah?

Team Cherry was very polite to leave the sprite leftover in the game files as "Hunters Crest Old"

[night ruin]

F

[lusty grove]

that's enough to freeze water

[harsh yarrow]

the glow and select screen sprites are custom made though

[tight viper]

Second is in Sinner's Road, right of the Green Prince room in the top right corner, where the Australian duo lives

[tiny geyser]

Tbf I’m pretty sure Fahrenheit came first

[tropic tide]

Wait, you’d really gift it to me?

...or just forcing Hecuba to play an extended portion of the game with the Reaper or Architects Crest

[graceful oyster]

Birds ruin festivals and lift sieges

[proud jay]

Hecuba already did a architect run

[night ruin]

Machiavellian type shi

[west holly]

Yall wat do i do after ||phantom||

[harsh yarrow]

ah, so the Reapers Crest

[proud jay]

yep

[harsh yarrow]

I'd say Shamans, but that'd just supercharge silkspear spam, no?

[dusky pumice]

That's my favorite

[proud jay]

yep

[harsh yarrow]

plus it'd need a mod to be usable pre act 3

[tiny geyser]

Does anyone know where missable craftmetal is?

[proud jay]

well, every crest run requires such mod

[harsh yarrow]

true

[west holly]

U get the one in ||bone bottom||

[night ruin]

I always miss the one above wisp thicket

[tiny geyser]

Nvm the nuke guy in deep docks helps me get the 1 I need

[west holly]

[graceful oyster]

I'm not a runner in a professional capacity but my any% hk is 1:49 so I might be able to help

[fervent cave]

Thank you :)

Genuinely it's so good cuz of how fast it's unleashed and how fast you can just do it again

[timid valve]

Btw, do you understand Snare Setter as a tool?

[rocky jolt]

beast crest users will use the craziest and riskiest setup ever only to be the 3rd highest dps crest

[fervent cave]

You can use pale nails and sharp dart at the same time Wich is op af

[fervent cave]

Not quite , never really used it. I only get it when I plan to do act 3

It does deal lotta damage and can be used has a pogo on enemy's tho

[lusty grove]

Khann's so easy

[fervent cave]

Shamefully so

[graceful oyster]

King of the Coral Kin is fun

[lusty grove]

imma beat him with unevolved Shaman Crest now

[copper hedge]

silkpost moment

[burnt helm]

Khann is as easy as his IRL counterpart, that's why he had so many wives

[low wasp]

Lol

[lusty grove]

hold on let me try again the gaunglet killed me

[north falcon]

Got stuck at Karmelita several weeks ago, finally played again today for the first time since then and beat her first try 💪

[fervent cave]

That might be the max

[near mirage]

[fervent cave]

Hidden in memurium

[near mirage]

[earnest drift]

(dlc bosses need more than 3000 hp I swear)

[fervent cave]

:D

Ngl yeah it is

[near mirage]

i got confused it with whiteward

[fervent cave]

Fastest skill to use and you can use both pale nails and it at the same time

[near mirage]

anyway does vog show the large fleas location with the pins

[fervent cave]

Ye

People have said architech is the bets crest , my fucking fluff it is

Shaman Crest for the win 🔥

[hollow linden]

i can not talk but if anyone wanna watch my steel soul run, they can

[strange comet]

How tall is the average pale being

[burnt helm]

She slubber on my lug until I shaw

[worthy lintel]

Is that revived gorge lol

[fervent cave]

Neat

[eternal berry]

what the fuck

[burnt helm]

Revived George!

[earnest drift]

i wonder what the fastest lost lace speedkill time is for architect crest

[rocky jolt]

crust george

[worthy lintel]

Ok but where are those steel guys from the trailer

[red depot]

been so long since I played ss it took a second to see whats wrong

[fervent cave]

I've seen 14 secs

[burnt helm]

Crust king George

[fervent cave]

On first phase

[red depot]

they have part-time jobs

[rocky jolt]

killed them

[strange comet]

They're on lunch break

[fervent cave]

Teehee:3

[eternal berry]

is city of steel a confirmed dlc

[earnest drift]

just for phase 1 or for the whole fight

[near mirage]

is the large fleas pin from vog any different from the other fleas

[red depot]

its been so long since I played ss I'm not sure if this is a mod or an update I missed out on😭

[worthy lintel]

Oh nvm here's one

[earnest drift]

even if architect is slower than shaman it needs a nerf because of how lazy it is
eg. all-hit build

[worthy lintel]

It's a custom map

[near mirage]

wasnt this guy scrapped

[fervent cave]

Phase one , 45/50 for the whole thing

[red depot]

no?
