I mean if you wanna be bored the whole fight sure
having to time your red tools instead of bullshit go
You could beat the boss by standing still and waiting 3 minutes or you could just play the game
i think some damage numbers could be tweeked, aka volt vessel bola and curvesickle
Increase bola damage but make them even harder to control
a cooldown would probably make quick sling insane but also the game needs more good tools anyway imo so
I think that would make them a lot less fun to use. Besides it would just delay the inevitable
by that logic, shaman pale nails weavelight
The primary use would be to discourage tool spam, which is most of the issue
Guys dont say that im bad but look at this clutch
yea currently good tools are clear as day
Thanks for swearing and for the link.
On my wiki search, it showed nothing besides a link to something called CC-BY-SA
an image of them all on the map is literally impossible
if you use weavelight you are lowk boring af
Tool spam and boss dies in 20 seconds is most of people's issues with tools, not that tools are just good
Well you can either view the tools themselves as the issue in toolspam or the spam as the issue
And camping with tools isn't?
if you want around for the cooldown of red tools you are lowk boring af
The spam. Definitely the spam
Not literally impossible, just almost unreadable
you can use the overall map if you like https://mapgenie.io/hollow-knight-silksong/maps/pharloom
Has anybody used cogwork wheel outside of architect spam?
Tools need to be good enough to offset their capacity and use of another resource
the thing about nerfing red tools is it kind of hinders them more during exploration than against bosses (less capacity is naturally more relevant when spread across multiple enemy encounters, and less damage can be more important if it makes a difference between an extra hit killing a normal enemy earlier), so idk maybe some change to shell shards would make more sense since their real cheesibility comes from unloading all your shards on one big health pool enemy
But currently they're really good and can be thrown out 5 times a second
Grover
Thank you
Wouldn't that be boring tho? What's your take on a cooldown? Like a 15s cooldown when you reach 50% capacity or what?
Oh I got hollow knight faydown
Monarch wings sounds less cool then faydown cloak imo
yho if what they did was something like a bigger cooldown then ig itd be quick slings time to shine 
nah nothing that huge like even a 1 second cooldown
15s is definitely too much lmao nah just like a 1 second cooldown
which is why cooldown is goated
Maybe half a second, would have to feel it out
thoughts on removing the condition from egg chat
iβd say 5-10
15s cooldown would be tragic could you imagine trying to use straight pin
#TeamCherry #HollowKnight #Silksong #HollowKnightSilksong
does anyone have that architect clip
The nyleth one?
i think 5 is a bit long
You are talking about every tool throw, im not
5 seconds would be good
that or the karmalita
wrong gif
also nerf the high dmg red tools like curvesickle, volt vessels and conchcutter stuff
maybe make it variable for each of them
That is NOT architect
bro fucking hell
you need to label your gifs
perfect organization
How did you fuck this up
I'd say it's better for individual throws to have cooldown than to have a random cooldown in the middle of your tools
π
pain
You didn't wait for any of them to load? You just clicked and hoped?
you could also have different cooldowns for different red tools
That's especially bad if you're spreading out tool usage in a gauntlet for example
though thats a more indepth process
Shaman is the farthest thing from Architect you can think of
cross-stitch failure π₯
too strongh imo
btw remember this as reference https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoWM-_WSlNk

you could make it half health
Spell spam becomes the new issue
I think it's fine as it is.
Go my 80 pale nails
Shaman already has... well not an issue... but its really strongh against bosses because you can just burst them
Send avg wanderer and reaper
as an hk spells enjoyer i would like if they were just 3 notches by default
Shaman is pretty strong but balanced
is this a bit or were you slash ass are ass π
It's fine for it to have a condition but for a game like Silksong where you're always nearly gonna die or nearly full I think full hp is a bit too limiting for it tbh
that not being the case is why i don't really use silk skills
That would probably make it better than spell twister made spells in hk
@light swan Send avg wanderer and reaper
i think as it is it's a pretty miserably underwhelming reward for all fleas
0.02 seconds is diabolical
the pale oil isn't
They programmed some bullshit for Hunter damage boost but left egg of flealia crumbs to eat
Fair, but an overall decrease in cost is kinda crazy
flea eg shouldn't only work for max hp imo
It should have a condition regardless, but half health + above is probably fine
altho idr anymore if for red tools the animation is the full cooldown
Where's your Cross stitch
Cross stitch bad
igs hela f ast anyways though
Why did you edit that message I was watching that
unrioncally cross stitch is slower
That is, in fact the current topic of discussion
You said average wanderer I'd say that's what an average wanderer player would run
True
thats why i said it
maybe at full health OR at full silk? 
@light swan Send avg wanderer and reaper
that would still be bad
I was excited to use sawtooth on my first playthrough until I went to memorium with it and realized this shit can screw me over
new ype of player varying only between 15 and 18 silk 
It's raining heavily outside, 23:22 right now, and im here sitting by my window in complete darkness listening to the city of tears OST
Moments like these makes me feel that life is truly magical
Bro its the same for me except for the cot ost
iidk why i dont find first sinner so hard i beatt her in my 10thh attempt
okay i kinda like conditional on silk tbh
like above half silk gives egg of flea bonus
that would be good
rewards knowning when you have x amount of silk
I'm fine with egg of flealia only being at full health. A somewhat high skill cap tool rewarding you with roughly 10% more silk skill dps is not for everyone, but a fine tool.
egg not being compatible with plasmium phial on shaman is
I'm fine with egg where its at, but im actually vibing with more than half silk more
wanderer reference?????
Why can't it just be soul twister
because only 3 silksong tools are allowed to be good
slowly spreading into the tools
everything else has to have a downside or be a mid gimmick
sawtooth, filament and pollip pouch right
xD
sawtooth iband filament
because tc can't balance anything
(reserve bind and fractured mask and longclaw are ok too)
longclaw
Spell twister was really broken tho
injector band is if you're nostalgic for 2019 silksong
Cough cough reaper
i love quick focus
Mbinder too
Not really,blue slots are more valuable than 2 slot charms so when I equip a blue it better not be conditional
You should put on cot, it makes it much much more amazing
because spells were really strongh in hk i assume, trauma from hk balancing
mbinder has a sizable downside
Soul Twister: possibly the best charm that I donβt think can be considered broken
TEAM CHERRY MAKE POLLIP POUCH INTERACT WITH SAWTOOTH CIRCLET AND VOLT FILAMENT FOR NO ACTUAL REASON AT ALL
half the tools are usable but most of the other half is nerfed with some gimmick for no reason
there is a reason we dont have money in silksong and thats because trauma from hk
Waht
You can clearly tell with some silksong tools that some are like hk charms but given a limitation
Other than volt vilament that's just shaman stone again
they were like fuck too much money in hk nerf silksong
How would volt filament even work
literally the time extension
Just don't use it if you don't use a lot of skills.
Shaman Stone: Broken
Quick Slash: Broken
Strength: Broken to the point of Meta Centralization
Soul Twister: Great but pretty reasonable
injector band also gains synergy with pollip and so you take poison damage at the end of the bind
You see...I use a lot of silk skill but I'm not always at full health
disagree
It's slightly nerfed but yes
Do we see the problem
to a degree yea, also reverse direction like memory crystal and wisp lantern which are just buffs
strength is meta only in godhome
This is diabolical, implement it
a lot of similarities between tools and charms
but halfed
mostly due to how the game are so similar though which makes sense
strength is mid outside of godhome and colosseum
apply poison to filament = more purple damage over time
strength is meta for all dream content
Shaman is basically used for everything till godhome lol
its crazy
even without unbreakable
shaman is kinda broken for hitless
techincailly not dream warriors
Most of the time you have 3 blue slots,max slots in HK are 11, if you devide that by 3, that's 3,5 charm slots per blue tool
I used memory crystal a couple months back and I act found it to be dope, cogfly is p much a better glowing womb too
yea, they run it overcharm in hitless well technically MOP is the overcharm
Quick Slash is good on both Spell Builds and Nail Builds because it gives better soul generation due to more attacks per second
reds and yellows:
i'll probably won't use shaman for silksong godhome
Same but I don't usually take damage, and even when I do I just heal once and it's back in effect. I don't want to be the guy to say "skill issue" but playing around it is interesting for me now that I have been using it for a bit. Not really for everyone
unless they balance it
Yellows are....
and reds ..we don't talk about red
is beast bind faster or witch 
we do we have belt so thats steady body + stallwart shell
my build for godhome is probably going to be two different ones, intial build is going to be iband, mask, multi, wanderer crests, sharpdart, plasmium file i think, weighted belt, dice
tbf wispfire TECHNICALLY costs more white resource than glowing womb did
1 silk x 4 = uh 4. 8 soul x 4 = 32. 33>32 π
Don't forget the dice as well
True
beast
If we placed yellows into HK they'd all be one notch charms
hitless godhome will be wanderer, sawtooth, volt filament, longclaw, flintslate, sharpdart, weighted belt, dice, barbed bracelet
thats still +3 on all but witch and shaman
hitless difficulty is just gonna be hunter all the way for me
pantheons i'll probably do wanderer
cross stitch* and hunter and shell satchel
hunters pogo is just too inconsistent for me tbh
Pollip pouch is ass anyway tho
yk I should try a beast only run with debug mod
11-3=8:3=2,6 charm slots ber blue tool
Beast + Injector Bands can probably plow through most of the pantheon
cross stitch i just dont enjoy, like sharpdart more
I've done like 20 bosses hitless so far and the only time I didn't user hunter was against fotf
This is funnier than not even parrying and just facetanking everything
hunters crest i honestly think is a trade off for hitless tbh
you are trading consistency for damage
also like
tc just decided to nerf all blues overall
cough best blue being 50% of shaman stone
Fair, agree with you on that one
what about the pogo is inconsistent?
whats slash ass are ass, no that wasnt ab it
Wdym,shaman is 33%
the only thing I don't like about beast is that you need enemies near you to be able to heal
Smaller hitbox, interactions in odd ways with bosses on occassion
Wdym 50% of shaman stone
confirmed >1 boss/tool in sos btw 
shaman stone increases spell dmg by 50%
volt does by 25%
hunters pogo dragging you towards the enemies makes it more inconsistent imo as well
Actually real
Lowk I got tired of waiting for my enemies with cross-stitch, with sharpdart I can just get up close (enough for the delay to not screw me over) and click it
it also says more than 1 area
Wrong
Lomm and Lemm duo boss
Shaman increased spell damage by 33%, no?
/srs
if you miss a hunters pogo you just get hit, if you miss a wanderers pogo you can bail yourself out of it
Shaman is inconsistent
it does 33% for shade soul, but also gives more size
basically minimizing risk
True
volt is more balanced
tbf volt also has extra tick damage so its not quite half. (but then again, sstone also made fireball gigantic... double hits for days)
HOLY SHIT
cough xero triple hits cough 120 damage cough
It buffs Shade Soul by 33%, Abyss Shriek by 50%, Desolate Dive by 51%, and Descending Dark by 47%.
Volt fillament is better than shaman stone not by strenght but by balance
the 51 / 47 is due to rounding
I don't know how much shaman does but they both add to 60-65% with volt filament
Aw you just beat me!
shaman is 1.4
volt is 1.25
Descending Dark damage increased by 47% ye Team Cherry should have gone to hell already
wait i swear to god shamans was 50% across the board wtf
left vs right ddark
It used to be 1,5 for shaman sadge
it makes shade soul bigger
abyss shriek by 50% is crazy what were they thinking
fireball is 33% but bigger (cant remember if others technically get bigger as well), abyss shriek is 50%, ddark is 46.66% on one side and 35.38% on the other
Volt adds extra ticks
they nerfed shaman buff to silk skills?
shade soul gets less damage but easier double hits
Extra ticks barely do anything. Yea they are nice but the main focus is clearly the flat damage percentage buff
good call
yea ik that, but i thought it was a flat damage buff crazy
They nerfed it a couple of months ago iirc, increase was 50% and is now 40%
Depends on which skill it is
yeah ik
i have over 1k hours in hk how the hell did i not know tha
silk issue smh
for some reason descending dark (not desolate dive) deals 5 more damage on one side if you dont have shaman stone equipped
The ticks are 5-10 extra damage
big number go brrr i guess lmao
wait if theyre updating hk again they could still fix that, or maybe they even did (dont think so)
Still extra damage
read nerfed shaman and almost had a heart attack thinking they'd changed HK's charm balance
thread storm gets to have 15 if you mash tho π
it would be funny if they started trying to balance hk now that they are doing updates xD
They already made r5 easier by nerfing absrad and sly PFFFFFFT /s kinda
My point still stands tho, that's merely a bonus
How abt re*per tho
Is thread storm volt filamented the best skill?
AbsRad health reduction π
a bit late for that
Shaman
they didn't nerf absrad they patched a really shitass bug
its a nerf, im sorry if anyone does r5 now im better than them /s
Maybe?
nerfing sly? more like fixing it
im glad they fixed it though
what did they do to sly?
they fixed hits greatslash hitbox
remember when they accidentally nerfed nail arts but made them affected by strength in the beta for 1.5 but only most of the time somewhat at random, because for some reason the game started using previously unused values still left in the game from back when they used to have those numbers before the game released
fixed his shitty great slash hitbox
Hitbox
what was wrong with it before
HUGE
no wtf
technically rune rage has the most damage potential but youll never get it
5-10 extra damage is good enough for me 
what the fuck
yea its probably the most crazy hitbox in hk
hk players will look at you and tell this is a good boss battle
only took 7 years π₯Ή
sly is a good boss!
Normal hit box
If I modded my game to get max damage rune rage all the time and started doing speedkills no one would know surely
Too small. Make it bigger.
its a pretty good boss battle tbh
hmmm idk
that hitbox is
like
indefensible though
how did it make it through testing
sly is a good boss battle
It is though
i fell asleep in phase 2
...yeah, because they did that, and people didnt know what was going on for a bit, because it completely fucked all bindings collector, but like, not all of the time, since sometimes youd still deal the normal 1.4 damage 
fixed it
it's ass and i will die on this hill
just say you died brocheeto sauce, we wont judge π π
Wtf is wrong with me I beat silksong in under 5 h on normal mode and barely died at all, meanwhile in still soul I die to every single thing imaginable
when are they fixing GPZ's hitbox

i have radhog
I feel that so much:(
This has happened twice to me in my playtime but its a major bummer mid p5 run
AI
i like the sly fight because its a change of pace
gambling π€
phase two is like a bob and weave as well
Is his hitbox a fucking squars
fuck i should probably like bug report the 50 fuckin things still in hk ive been puttin it off but like maybe theyll actually fix it still with some more
Genuinely what were they cooking
sly is quite a fun fight to me
Sly's phase 2 is kinda lame but Phase 1 is so unbelievably peak and Phase 2 is so short that its still S tier
meth
Sly is a solid A tier boss imo
ok the clip isnt actually loading for me but i assume you staggered him mid downslashslamthing, right
did sly use to have hitboxes bigger than his slashes or something π
tbh they might have intially designed his greatslash to be that big but then they toned it down and never adjusted the hitbox
phase 1 is always unfun to fight for me and (was) broken and phase 2 is not even a boss fight
yeah
since the hitbox is seperate from the visual
Thank you. Release the patch
boss tierlist go
yeah thats when his shitass invisible hitbox shows up and i think you needed to stagger him again to get rid of it...?
rank tools, but on how useful they are in steel soul only
Anyways off to the coal mines with me, happy hollowing the knight
satchel S+
Yeah
I don't have an hk only boss tier list so here it is with the silksong ones too π₯
Not gonna lie people here like to judge everything lmao
valid
i'd put nkg on s tier and sly on e tier
ok ye then good im not making shit up 
plasmium phial and fractured mask def in S
is this good or nah
CHAT
its better that i only do that when its on purpose π
imo phantom is overrated, shes more A tier than S tier
I need to learn to take fractured mask off 
Soul warrior below Groal is crazy work
the true gif nation has WON today
I know it's insane damage but getting hit during gifs like this is -1000 aura
palestag should be lower
a new true has?!
Phantom has a ton of aura but the fight is kinda lacking something yeah
The M
it takes like 30 minutes to get early control bc debug is stupid
wdym the fight is very fun
phantom is lacking a phase in which hornet sets them on fire
P-ranking desintegration loop literally murdered me this shit is so tiring
isnt the artemis ii peak
Like holy fuck i love the level but its so easy to fuck up
phantom thief
I just think Phantom is a very fun fight
This list is pretty good id say but whats with ppl obsessing over seth
soul warrior is considerably better imo
yeah yeah I mean its lacking something to be S tier its still a great fight
I wish they were a little harder but it's ok they're fun
oh no nvm
She's lacking to be S tier, but has it to be A tier
I just think Seth is an extremely fun fight
soul master is better than groal not warrior
Level is too long I'm sorry
It's a Phantom mod. A big one.
...
look idk ive been making this since like september i don't wanna talk about it anymore. new moves. new sprites. new phase. new bugs.
The mod should be available on Thunderstore and GitHub. (Dependencies are BepInEx, FsmUtil, AssetHelper) If anything is set up incorrectly, let me know when I'm 60% more medicate...
warrior is basically not a boss
Am I the only one who dislikes the Seth fight
deadass
no
8-3 is so cool and easily top 10 levels but I think the amount of filler encounters and length kinda drags it down from being the best level which it easily could be
I wanted to puke after that level
honestly I would I include the craggler as a boss because it does that freeze screen after you defeat bosses when you kill it
Also I don't really like the aesthetic of it being a mishmash of other levels compared to the unique and fleshed out aesthetic of other fraud levels but I think I'm kinda alone on that
i mean i love seth but i've seen people hate on his fight before
but... no, please... π
i get people who dislike it. it's b tier for me
It may be a contender for my favourite level because it's one hell of a trip
if it must be so, do NOT make a godhome team cherryβΌοΈβΌοΈ
but then again 8-2 has literally nothing bad about it sooo
watch the craggler be in godhome 
Secret 4 
maybe we'll get winged craggler tho 
I am yet to find someone who cares for those
8-2 is amazing though
Please don't cook
Optional encounters are always great
floor craggler 
If there's a boss I think is extremely overrated, it's Karmelita. Her speed, especially in the last phase, is way too fast for any normal player to keep up. It's extremely player-unfriendly and unfun. Not to mention how she just randomly blocks attacks for no reason with no telegraph. I really don't know what Team Cherry was thinking when designing her
oh man, i cant disagree more as i see karmelita as the pinnacle of hk bossfights
(LOUD SOUND) secret 4 actually hurt my ears though and its ugly asf
is this one of those ragebait messages
Also eats like a minute off your timer
oh my fucking god warning please
that reads like a copypasta
I said it hurt my ears π
this is a copypasta now
not to that point
I like ragebaiting it's funny
they're gonna make double beastfly
because they hate us
Dogshit slop fights? Seems like something team cherry always makes...
Beastfly but the lava is now flaming muckmaggots
hk godhome didnt have any bad fight right?
This looks like a copypasta but I lowkey really really hate how she seemingly randomly zips forwards or backwards half the arena.
Winged Nosk
winged nosk is pretty bad
Aside from winged nosk
Anything to get the Beast crest
Yeah the rest are great
ascended craggler leak
i hate sly but this is a very unpopular opinion so
I don't like oro and mato
some of the godhome warrior dream arenas are pretty stinky
But sheo is amazing
I dislike him too you aren't alone
you monster
If you pick a fight with sly you pick a fight with all of us π£οΈ who's with me π£οΈ π£οΈ π£οΈ
i think that all of the nailmasters are pretty damn good
sheo is close to be an s tier for me
karmelita is...... like a dance
they all have their own stuff to like

Sly ain't letting you hit
Ngl I could see that
sly is goated like that
Or maybe beastfly where it drops lava down occasionally
seth's bossfight deserves more slander
Sly is good
the craggler will be in godhome
gron riding a savage a beastfly a throwing spears at you
I thought Seth was pretty fun
Groal the potato but his breath has muckmaggots
team cherry's chatgpt chats
sly phase 2
silksong act 3 lore
Also longpin feels good to use I like an excuse to use it
Seth feels like second sentinel but they extracted some elements that make second senti good
acting like second sentinel isn't good
???? 2nd senti is peak
longpin couldve just a dealt a lil bit more dmg and π
Second sentinel launching those little repair dudes at you
silksong if it had good boss design
second sentinel is awesome
2 moss mothers: 4 moss mothers
New silksong update will bring drunk bell beast racing
The air spinner thingy that seth has is barely telegraphed and he just flies backwards with no reason nor followup
also tc add tool fusion and let me combine rosary cannon with straight pin itll only add 8 years to development
craggler is not a boss
F????? The flixer butter be able to make more hornet statuettes
i wish second sentinel was harder it could've been top 3
i dont consider boss difficulty very important as long as its not the final boss and the boss itself is fun
Pimpillos abused him
ChatGPT write me dialogue for a boss in my dark gritty fantasy kingdom
Processing... π€ π
"Never... have I been defeated in combat.
I can... see myself there, still sleeping. How long have I been hidden here?
Here at the edge of the world, no-one could find me... except you.
Warriors, knights, kings, even time itself... they have no power over me. Only you.
You are the darkness... come to consume me. "
Like first sinner is easy and yet she still lands on the top 10
I'd argue not important to the story instead
As in karmelitta
Good design making her hard
Easy final bosses can be good
But she's harder than the final boss
lost lace is much harder than karmie imo
Karmelita could be S tier if she wasn't such a deal
is this fucking markoth
I mean, karmelita might be not important by herself but she represents a portion of old pharloom which is relevant (old pharloom expansion when)
I can see that, the fight is longer i think
Karmie took 19 tries for me
agreed
karm took me like 45 minutes ll took me like 3 hours
π
The hardest boss is margit the fell omen he whooped my ass the first time i was like rune level 14 i think
LL took me like 30 minutes
shit wrong game
Not even joking
i blame that partly on me playing reaper and also being dead tired for the latter but still
ll took me two hours and karmelita took me 40 mintues
Once I made it to the 4th stun I locked in
I was reeking of dissapointment when i first saw ll so i didnt want to beat her very badly
my evidence is that i beat lace 2 second try with 7 masks
but either way i still think she's a lot harder than karm
more llace slander!
because of the void shit
gabriel is gonna mog lace so hard for the triple encounter formula
karm doesn't really have overlapping attacks
100%
Guess the tier list
she genuinely grew on me and i really do love her now
nvm blocked
And we already had what i consider the PEAK of gabriel-likes in act 2 so it better be luci
gabe 1 is mid fight me on it
dude how tf would lucifer be the final boss
gabe 2 is worse than gabe 1 π
Why wouldnt luci be
bro ain't even relevant to the story
Oh ye, I forgot this is sk discussion and I can talk about silksong anywhere but here
Gabe should be dead by now 
Maybe the real Hollow Knight was the friends we made along the way
main arc ends in 9-1 and the final boss of 9-2 is just a completely new guy
9-2 is a completely new game
I'm like 90% sure its gonna be Lucifer in 9-1 and Gabriel in 9-2
Luci yk, groomed by hell after god threw him into the slammer, game's about hell right
hakita said lucifer wouldnt be in the game
Lucifer is namedropped twice wym
I dont give a fuck
i heard a cool theory that lucifer is gonna be the flesh prison for p3
Bro is obviously in the game
even still he would make no sense as the final boss π
Guysssss
well yeah def
Usually the prime souls are imprisoned by angels, god didnt even bother he just dropped luci in
I wanna talk about silksong
not even as a side boss
so i think its odysseus
you cant here sorry
He would
I think its plausible as a side boss
I would be satisfied to have him as a final boss
Odysseus Prime seems likely for p-3
Hakita literally said that in no point of ultrakill will you fight lucifer
OK but when
will hakita make another X tier boss like flesh prison and panopticon for the flesh cage thingy in P-3
hk bosses tierlist π
Ultrakill fandom is pretty notorious for making up random hakita quotes
Seems respectable
If the Hollow Knight is hollow, does that include his head?
NKG and SoB at the top I don't even care
Lost lace below cogwork "i can't land a single attack ever" dancers and traitor lord above C tier is wild
green prince in S probably gets you jumped
i lowk had him in A before
cogwork clears llace
Yeah jumped by me
TRUTHNUKE
orphan of kos mogs every boss like ever
I guess
i mean if I had to choose I'd probably boot up the game to fight dancers over llace its just a more memorable fight
i'll do a hk franchise tier list too never done that
Both are memorable but llace has more hype and aura
true eigong mogs all these bosses anyway
i used to hate ll too, for a few hours, you seem to be too stubborn
Savage beast fly better karmelita π
look idc I just want p-3 to have good arenas and the best boss
when are we going to give in?
TRUE
my thoughts on lost lace have actually gone down ngl
give into what she's entirely reused attacks and her story is mid
Letβs take from sisyphus and not minos please
but i still think shes peak
P-3 will have another boss thats comparable to the minecraft bosses just watch
doesn't even look cool
is bro the no1 lace hater
she's not entirely reused attacks
Fighting the void is neat n all, her visual design is lacking
pretty much is
cogwork dances is overrated
He just like me fr fr
I didn't find it very neat
The story carries the entire boss design
easy doesn't always mean bad
I hated it the first time but ended up loving it through the conclusion n all
if it did first sinner would be d tier
the story doesn't make sense when you first play it
wish she wasn't lace in black paint though
I'll take an easy but unique boss over a hard but bland boss
what, am I supposed to feel bad for killing a robot that tried to kill me first?
You later find it out don't you
mechanically cogwork dancers are pretty mid
their gimmick is unique but if they tracked you it would be so much better
the fight needs to be twice as fast for it to work
second fentanyl
π₯Ά
I'll take the overall more solid boss than a slightly unique mechanically boring boss
hmm hes lowk onto something
Sharpdart is the best skill and I'm tired of pretending it's not
Highest DPS + invincibility frames? Why the hell do people rank it so low? Just because you have to wait a bit? You have to wait for flinspark to activate too, but so what?
hornet 1 mogs lace 1
that's why I'm designing sea of sorrow and you aren't
lace 2 mogs hornet 2
spitting facts
Son π
my dad works at microsoft
extreme trukes
hornet 1 feels a bit stiff in comparison to lace 1
Lace 1 moves every 5 seconds
you also have a more limited moveset
lace 2 is better than hornet 2 but i wouldn't say mogs
Even though hornet 1 has some weird walking like almost every hk boss she has a more varied moveset
i really like hornet 2
No, lace 2 absolutely mogs hornet 2 imo
i think she dies a little too fast normally but that's it
I'd go as far as to say i'd take lace 2 over pure vessel
not even close
Pv is not allat im sorry
they are indeed allat
I do like pv but just replay the fight man
Yknow
Why is there a weaver spire in the cauldron anyway
They built over it
Why is that there
Pure Vessels focus attack is the tuffest attack in the franchise btw
The underworks likely werent during weaver rule
Ll moulinet mogs
best metroidvania boss i have ever seen
its also fanservice because descending dark
what is a moulinet
I guess that makes sense
Circle damage thingy
Also LL is slop don't care
anyway fuck unravelled
Pv is thk but 2 enhanced moves
sorry that's mean I mean I'm not interested
Yeah and showing some refined soul spells is way cooler than void nostalgiabait
buddy π
Refined spells stolen from weavers
It might be ragebait
allat just for the attack to be descendingdarkeable
most insufferable response of all time goes to:
idk what the toughest attack actually is
The best metroidvania boss imo is eislop
PV is a solid contender
I'd take some bosses from sk over pv
Its Rad though 100% if you don't think its Rad you just haven't played her enough
the lost lace circle attacks are tough looking but they actually never hit you
Ive done absrad on rad and no she's not allat
speaking of that if they do make a city of steel game i hope they include an abyss in that as well
but like
its different
rad has some ass mechanics
Eye candy
not that impressive play her some more
cuz its been implied the steel beings have some kinda relation to void
wym
I mean toughest attack not character
If you play Minecraft bedrock dm me
so what if the city of steel had infastructure in the abyss
Please
it's also the music and sound effects though
eigong and its really not close for any other boss except karmelita and ll maybe
Yeah that makes it good
but radience is probably the toughest character in hk
her entrance is the toughest thing in all hk for sure
Yeah i do agree
i've done radiant twice, lasers in phase 1 is the most dogshit attack in the entire franchise and i absolutely hate the orbs during plats
orbs I think are one of the more interesting attacks especially since you can bait them into platforms or drop down to move quickly
Lady maria is so good every game posterior to bloodborne had to have some boss that resembles her but ultimately doesnt come close
I hate how sometimes when lost lace does the black pillars attack she sometimes hides inside of them and I can't see what attack she is about to do
Don't really know what the issue with lasers is but I think they're kinda just ok
Sometimes they're pretty frustrating to deal with in the 2nd phase
first set comes out far too fast for being completely rng
black pillars?
Well the vertical tentacles
I think its like uhh half a second + the glowing face telegraph isn't it
they're slower in plats so it's fine there
I mean, i guess, but the telegraphs are long enough
It doesn't happen oftenly but when it does I actually cannot see it at all
yknow whats something really annoying
When you get hit and then try to parry but you cant cause of the iframes
and then your iframes run out midway thru ur parry and you get hit again
i haven't played nine sols yet, the praise for that final boss has jacked my expectations up so high that i doubt they could possibly be met at this point
You know what my real problem is with cross stitch? You get it so late that by the time I do, I get too used to dodging to get out of my comfort zone, let alone in a way that requires stricter timing and costs silk
Seth b tier?
To a bell
Seth is overrated imo
yea
I put it A tier because of the song
but it's like nothing special
it's just your average duel type fight
No eyes and galien aren't bad
galien is probably the best dream warrior but he isn't great
galien is the most untelegraphed boss ever
Galien is abysmal dogshit
he is by far the best and he is a good fight
if you don't like him, you have insane skill issue
i have radhog
i dislike every dream warrior
Most of the hits i get from him in all bindings is the contact damage from himself
not in this case, because there is nothing wrong with his fight
His fatass blocks the way
exactly
you can also be critical of a boss while being bad at it 
Feels too kind ngl
i dislike god tamer because of the same reason, they just run into you for no reason
it's not hard to prevent it but it's not a good design
whatever you say
i like gpz but i can see why people dislike it
half of the hk bosses suffer from similar issues
Did you try him in all bindings?
no
but no boss was designed to be beaten hitless, so taking that into consideration makes no sense
yeah youll be fine
Thanks
i think plenty of bosses were designed to be beaten hitless?
All except zango
you think they didn't expect people to use the healing mechanic they purposefully put in?
No
you think they didn't expect people to try the hitless difficulty they put in?
or they were planning 2 years ahead for when they released a random missable dlc?
Yeah i understand why you don't get from his hitbox
You just go under him and spam nail/spells
yes, because that came 2 years later in a hidden dlc with no actual reward so...
if it wasn't something they had the forethought for at all then why is it possible
evolution of the 7 billion people π₯Ή
i'm not saying they expected anyone to do that without ever trying but obviously at some point there was a consideration of like "ok we should make it possible to do these without taking damage"
fight radiant markoth or get a job, what would you choose?
tf
Fight the job
jesus i almost had a heart attack seeing this.
Sorry, I forgot the spoiler tag.
hornet has already applied to 400 jobs in 6 months
what would you change
i was too kind to dream warriors tbh
300 of those involved killing a mother.
Damn, more tierslop.
waiter waiter more tierlistslop please
oh god more slopslop
Why is the chat kinda dead today though, I expected there to be some more discussion.
we need sea of sorrow
good thing its releasing tomorrow
it died about 20 minutes ago
what are you talking about? it released yesterday.
but.,. thats not the phrase
the plasmified beastfly was hard as hell, i almot rage quit
@thick crystal how are you always watching the chat to react that emoji
enviromental storytelling
seriously tho what was he doing here
lowering like half of B and C by one
We must kill Sherma
ok whiteward
Was likely looking for bugs to cage, and got caught by that, and died from lack of 02.
yeah but why the ducts specifically
Spit Squits are a MAJOR threat and NEED to be caged
dont these wardenflies know that spit squits solo?
I mean, these flys fly over over pharloom, it's possbile they would check the ducts.
Couldβve been after the Ductstress
True
he was probably really hungry idk
spit squits need to be erased from the ecosystem
first person to go to the ducts willingly
also how tf did that thing manage to hold that fatass with its tongue
Both died. One to acid (stomach stuff) and one to "plus-sized".
idk personally i wouldve just not gone there
?
The slab obtains their prisoners in two ways; being given a target to capture or being brought the penitents over the bridge leading from the citadel. This fly was on the lookout for Hornet when it got its head in the wrong hole.
skill issue
#nukeputrifiedducts
#unputrifyducts
Youβll kill the fleas
that's his friend
Only Seth matters though, fuck them Fleas and their nasty games.
Citadel orders
Dodge is fun
I adore Quirrel
Also Mooshka is a cool dude
He might actually rival Shakra for my favorite HK character
My favorite characters are Eternal Emilitia and Conductor Ballador
we are conductor ballador
Theyβre rich and if I am nice to them they might buy me fancy things
I like bounce and dodge
Juggle is uh. A game that exists
Personally favourites of mine are The Pale King, Grimm/NKG, Eternal Emilitia, Nosk, Xero, Reed, Grand Reed, Seth and prolly some I forgot.
EDITED LATER:
Willow, Styx, Groal the Great, Crawfather
Any tips for lost lace?
Emilitia I talked to once
don't mindlessly run around the arena, she can appear in front of you and deal contact damage
I also like Groal the Great
What did he do to be called the great I wonder
the stilkin lost their leader π
-Druids Eyes
-Multibinder
-Injector Band
-Wanderers
-Flea Brew (use during staggers for maximum silk gain)
-no silk skills
-dice (you'll get hit a lot)
-silkspeed anklets (dodge parries)
-Heavy Belt (i-frames)
ty
LETS GO I GOT THE ||WEAVER QUEEN|| ENDING!!
He is just great, nobody has to say why. He's so great that nobody even knows him before they know he is great.
First time beating the final boss!
Spoilers are aloud here. Also, cool!
ggs
even stuff like shermas act 2 death
You mean allowed?
I should say this, did you get the ||twisted bud|| or have you yet to find it?
Never heard of it
i made it up
I mean Iβve never heard of this
Oh boy, If you get that, don't speed along stuff, there's a ending with that.
So it if I get that, I should beat GMS again?
yes
Yeah, but, It is not easy. took me 6 hours, without sleep at night to beat it.
How so?
it's like a challenge
Does it nerf you or somwthing?
YEP.
May I know how bad it is?
no healing no tools no nothing and only 3 silk
._.
and diff moveset
Doesnβt that mean no spells too?
no crest too
only clawline stuff like that
I would consider using clawline, it works as a attack.
This mod sounds cool but I rarely use architect
Same, I had mainly used hunter, wanderer and reaper crests.
Holy pogos bro
Is it possible to get faydown cloath with no clawline?
it is
you can get it with sharpdart
oh yea
it's pretty tricky tho
Mio is questionable, WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN I CANT HEAL WITH CRYSTALLISED NACRE?
How to get much much aura in sk: first, aura
yes
you gotta use sharpdart and some cocoon skips tho
is it possible to get faydown cloak
with no other abilities
so its act 1 possible then
no dash and sprint
cling
grapple
silksoar
nothin
Is it just me or is sylphsong way easier to get than fucking salubra's blessing
Especially when you avoid using memory lockets on hunters crest
That and it's not annoying like salubra's is.
True
I mean, I have always grabbed the lockets for all crests, because of 100&'ing it, ofc, Hunter is good, when upgraded.
Kinda weird how thereβs so many mothers in Silksong, Moss mother, Grand Mother Silk, Brood motherβ and I bet Herrah is mentioned somewhere
It is a bit odd, with mother being used a lot in SS.
as if motherhood isnt a big theme of the game
It is?
there arent any themes

Yeah..? i mean parenting in general
themes and such...
Cool
Bug Fables
theres literally a character called βGRAND MOTHER SILKβ ffs π
anyone know if silksong is on sale anywhere
idk
i got 20 bucks but not enough for tax
It goes on sale during the big steam ones
i know but i dont know when the next sale is
june 25
first i had to wait 5 monthes for tomodachi life and now this. its over for me
π
brood mother
father of the flame
craw father
does that really count
grand father plasmium
its a tree.. π
daughter of hallownest
he birthed the fire guys maybe im not too informed in cult lore
daughter of three queens
How long will it take for me to beat Nog hitless
lace, phantom, hornet under gms
did they??
6 hours or 2 hours
i dunno
(imprecise parries not counted)
Who
Nog
illusion2 do you think you can beat this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Hoscjy4ilk (bad quality is a glitch)
Who the hell is Nog bro
π¨
Boss from Nine Sols
Oh ok
i wonder if PK could fly like radiance and GMS
probably, wyrms are cousins of dragons i think
but can he fly in bug form
so thats how he gets past the buzzsaws
or he just makes himself a pale nail and pogos
i dont think iβd want to, probabky with a lot of time tho
sonn
holy shit
the understimulation of the void combined with the overstimulation of a completely rainbow background
did this actually happen in Davenport, Iowa
im trying to nerf whatever the fuck this is
no it happened in OHIO BOIIII βοΈ π
(please euthanize me)
decrease the frequency of the void shots
just delete it
epic embed fail
ikr
i didn't know that ended up happening

wait a second
what
when the holy light lowk calling to you
the radiance escaped the void and migrated to pharloom
hornet dont fucking touch it
nothin
what am i gonna do, lick the sun?
hornet isnt made of void and is actively shown to be aversely affected by it
therefore she can be infected by the radiance
shes too locked in for that
Pale being but not with the ying and yang void and soul stuff
she probably only resisted it for so long in HK because her influence was concentrated over so vast a kingdom along with her pale heritage making her built different
kind of like the mantises
but i reckon if she directly fought the radiance she could be infected if she failed
what happens when you spam 20 spool frags btw
wait does that mean that void infected soul master is the strongest
who
well im pretty sure normal bug soul and pale being soul is different
oh
the spells used by soul sanctum bugs is kinda a different color
orange because of infection, right?
the soul of TK, PV, and probably PK are all pure white
hmm but also the snail shamans have pure white soul
i think its more their spells are very unrefined
who even are the snail shamans
shaw man
my personal theory is that theyre some type of void beings or atleast closely tied
old rich family 
snails
void projectile attack should be spit out from 4 diagonal sides
the collector is a failed kingsmould
i dont think i can do that, im nerfing it tho
I donβt think they are exactly void or smt like that, but their species are definitely related to void
i think they could be closer related to the ancient void civilization like primal aspids stopped evolving in kingdoms edge
but it also has a voice and a mind
like an offshoot that didn't evolve of void people
soul?
