rip pale king

you would have loved chainsaws

[alpine marsh]

your first hit against an enemy must not deal damage if possible (with exceptions) (Precept Twenty-Three), and every subsequent hit must deal damage if possible (with exceptions) (Precept Twenty-Four)

wtf is "eating"

[brave blaze]

that makes sense, great husk sentries will become way more annoying

also bees pvp

pfp

[alpine marsh]

checks out

[brave blaze]

lmao

[brave blaze]

consumption of food

:D

[alpine marsh]

PIT THEM AGAINST EACH OTHER IN ARENA-STYLE COMBAT

[alpine marsh]

in HK tho

[brave blaze]

THEY PROBABLY DO

[brave blaze]

CONSUMPTION OF FOOD

BUGS GOTTA EAT

[alpine marsh]

at least 3 precepts mention it

[brave blaze]

nah he seemed to be more retro

[alpine marsh]

but the Knight doesn't eat :(

[brave blaze]

the precepts were made for zote!!!!

and others but not knight cuz knight stinky

[delicate tartan]

... how?

[alpine marsh]

and now they're being adapted to be possible gameplay-wise!

[brave blaze]

example: hit shield one time hit body rest time

[delicate tartan]

maybe lifeblood?

[brave blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/tesla-albert-einstein-madwolfofōkami-gif-13692030474614117380

[alpine marsh]

it's completely possible, just difficult and very annoying

[alpine marsh]

hm. I could see it

that could actually work tbh

[brave blaze]

i mean, are you trying to get as accurate to the precepts, or playability wise? like do you hope for this to actually be beat or beatable or just silly memes

[alpine marsh]

"eat quickly and drink slowly"
"eat as much as you can"
"don't eat immediately before sleeping"

[alpine marsh]

mixture of both? I want it to be as accurate as possible while not removing any completion goals

replacing completion goals/changing how they are achieved is fine tho

like you can't sharpen your nail at the nailsmith, so I'm gonna make a way to sharpen it yourself

[brave blaze]

if you consume lifeblood and sit at a bench within ten seconds ded, get all lifeblood when you see it, and get lifeblood fast when the cocoon opens and you can only gain soul from hotsprings slowly

once its completed skurry review fr

[alpine marsh]

exactly

[brave blaze]

woah thats interesting

[alpine marsh]

"drinking" is gaining soul from any source except hitting enemies

[brave blaze]

dreamnail

its like the nectar tube

the

the things butterflies have

[alpine marsh]

hot springs are way faster than dreamnail tbh

[frail rock]

any tips to beat nkg?

[brave blaze]

if you use dream wielder and hit and enemy DEAD

[alpine marsh]

with dream wielder that's not the case, but charms aside

[brave blaze]

h

ok guys

h

[alpine marsh]

the max soul per second adjusts depending on how much you can gain per second

[brave blaze]

i found out

the randomizer is possible 😼

[brave blaze]

maybe it wont kill you if you get soul too fast but it limits the speed you can get soul from hotsprings or dream nail in general

[brave blaze]

hooray!

[alpine marsh]

bc like, soul catcher + soul eater and also bc quick slash and also bc dream wielder

[brave blaze]

yeah

this is tough with so many rules

[brave blaze]

i already have 40 deaths or sk

so

[alpine marsh]

yeah

[brave blaze]

trying to do skips

💀💀💀

[brave blaze]

hooray question mark?

[alpine marsh]

question mark question mark.

[brave blaze]

i took stag to queens station and it took me to the abyss bro

😭😭

bro… brobro bro bro bro…. bro!!!!

[alpine marsh]

damn

how's abyss going

[brave blaze]

uh

[brave blaze]

back to the pit

both ways i can go are dead ends

one of them is an acid pool

[alpine marsh]

damn

[brave blaze]

other is just a dead end

imagine how the knight felt seeing the abyss and like oh shoot yeah those sre the corpses of my dead siblings alright

[brave blaze]

no mind to think

no voice to cry suffering

https://tenor.com/view/noelle-noelle-sad-noelle-crying-deltarune-spunch-bob-gif-23355053

[brave blaze]

you can disable skips or alter skip difficulty level

[brave blaze]

but how does the knight say yes or no to decisions

[alpine marsh]

Precept Four: 'Forget Your Past'.

[brave blaze]

like buying charms

[brave blaze]

uh

or accepting quests

wait

[brave blaze]

YOU CANT VISIT THE ABYSS LMAO

[alpine marsh]

nod/shake

[brave blaze]

when you really think about it

[alpine marsh]

smth like that

[brave blaze]

its still making a conscious decision

that means its thinking

how does the knight even live

or vessels

in general

[alpine marsh]

UMMM UHHH NUH-UH

[brave blaze]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN NUH UH

how can void separately control itself without sharing a mind

THIS GOES AGAINST ALL OF HOLLOW KNIGHT LORE

[alpine marsh]

does getting eight bindings give me lifeblood at every bench or only some?

[brave blaze]

HOW DOESNITBHAVE JO MIND TO THINK IF ITS MAKING DECISIONS ON THE FLY DAILY

[brave blaze]

every :D

bro lowkey

[alpine marsh]

oh nice

[brave blaze]

i was plsying jtem randomizer

[alpine marsh]

what do the other big circles mean then?

[brave blaze]

starts at 3, then 4 for 12 bundings, then 5 for all bindings on first 4

[alpine marsh]

is it more lifeblood?

[brave blaze]

and the fucking shade cloak cutscene bro

[brave blaze]

theyre like landmark points

[delicate tartan]

uh...

[brave blaze]

yes

[alpine marsh]

oh nice

[brave blaze]

allat for 34 geo

😭🙏

[brave blaze]

worth it

pale king tryna scam everyone

even his own kids

34 geo

LMAOOO

🤑🤑🤑🤪🤪

[delicate tartan]

so maybe, don't get too much items fast? that could unallow you from buying all from the store instantly?

[alpine marsh]

someone else gave me an idea

[brave blaze]

BUT

BUT

YOUVHAVE TO SOEND GEO

SO

YOU HAVE YOU BUY THINGS FAST

WHAT AM I SAYINF ANYMROE

[alpine marsh]

[brave blaze]

stonks

this comment is fire

The

[delicate tartan]

The

[brave blaze]

wait im confused

what does the skip festure do

on randomizer

[alpine marsh]

hot springs give 50 soul per second. 'drink slowly' says you must limit this to 40 (number may be adjusted for balance)

[brave blaze]

the skips?

ye

it will lock certain items or have a chance of doing it behind certain skips

like qga

[delicate tartan]

what do you guys think "glorifying charms" would have done?

[brave blaze]

and it ramps in difficulty of pulling off the skips

ohh

so certain items can be really tough to get if youre not locked in

[alpine marsh]

oh god is that the acid skip to get to QG?

[brave blaze]

yea

i think

[alpine marsh]

I tried it and it was so hard

[brave blaze]

im locked in

[brave blaze]

are you locked into speedrun skips

ive done the frame perfect spike hallway skip

on steel soul

🤑🤑🤑

[brave blaze]

great now heres a 10x harder skip that when you complete it you get 23 geo

should i do anyrad

[ionic moth]

I dont have mods 😭

[brave blaze]

no

fuck no

[delicate tartan]

p6 when?

[brave blaze]

bro tbh

randomizers make me think i might be able to do p5ab 🤔

there are some diehard advocates for anyrad but its just not fun in my opinion but who knows you may like it

because ive gone 2 hours itemless finding fucking 30 geo every single check

😭🙏

[brave blaze]

that sounds like a skill issue ngl

and 4 grubs

i dont have mods and i probably never will

[brave blaze]

oh trust me if you can do that fuckery youll be fine for hog

bro i could do p5 with all bindings but charm

im nothing without mop

did you do ab for the other 4 pantheons too?

[brave blaze]

soil warrior 😔

after. nearly beating radabsrad

[brave blaze]

This is real

[brave blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/the-radiance-hollow-knight-pale-king-watch-your-tone-watch-your-tone-mf-gif-25105189

if the hollow knight was the pure vessel hollow knight wouldnt have happened

because thk could have been able to contain the radiance

🙏

[alpine marsh]

@brave blaze Precept Fifty-One: 'Nothing is Harmless'.

[alpine marsh]

ohno

oof ouch my bones

[brave blaze]

well the hollow knight was the pure vessel for a short time before it began to develop probably some form of a fatherly connection to pk as seen at the end of path of pain

[brave blaze]

me playing with pale king skin fighting absrad

[brave blaze]

is this foreshadowing

[alpine marsh]

no

[brave blaze]

true

[alpine marsh]

;)

[brave blaze]

theres a radiance skin that turns radiance into pk and you play as radiance its cool

just cosmetic tho

[brave blaze]

i have it

[brave blaze]

lord please

its silly

i cant handle gattling gun primal aspid

i like it bc the attacks are sprite resized to actual hitbox

[brave blaze]

whats the skins name ive actually wanted to try it on my modded save file

i have 3 vanilla save files and then one for absolute game breaking bullshit

very organized

[brave blaze]

little radiance i think

[brave blaze]

honestly uh

merci beaucoup monsieur

i forgot to backup my save files

https://tenor.com/view/noelle-noelle-sad-noelle-crying-deltarune-spunch-bob-gif-23355053

you can back up save files

wait nvm

[brave blaze]

ye

u dont rlly need to backup tbh

a

harmless mods like customknight wont do anything bad

that could leave changes

[grave trench]

AYO WHAT THE FUCK-

[brave blaze]

or hallownest vocalized

in all honesty even if i do lose my cracked steel soul save i wont be too upset, because i can take it as a challenge to redo it again but faster if possible (althouh i probably wont play hk for a ehile)

i only use those 2 mlds

[alpine marsh]

you should always back up your saves before modding

[brave blaze]

i have 112 on steel soul

[brave blaze]

i havent and thats scary i probably will

ive only used mods or enabled mods when i enter one save file

thats for messing

[brave blaze]

true

the others i leave essentially untouchd

[alpine marsh]

regardless of what mod you use; it's hard to know what can corrupt your saves

[brave blaze]

also @brave blaze to backuo save files

go to locallow

team cheery

copy hollow knoght folder

and put it somewhere safe

[brave blaze]

thats why its a good idea to stick to a few mods at a time

[brave blaze]

yea true

i only use 2

[brave blaze]

THABK

THANK

[alpine marsh]

I didn't backup my files and now voidheart costs 5 notches (I increased my max notches to 16 to compensate)

[brave blaze]

i only have hallownest vocalized and customknight

[brave blaze]

you can change the notch amount too

that same thing happened to me

i modified the notch cost for voidheart back to zero

[alpine marsh]

I did and that caused my save to revert to MoreSave's backup (before I beat P4)

[brave blaze]

but that was before i deleted all my saves to start fresh with the steel soul

[brave blaze]

o h

what the freak :(

giys

guys

is steel soul the most canon

🤔

[alpine marsh]

(I backed it up manually before trying to fix it so I didn't actually lose any progress but the original issue still exists)

[alpine marsh]

who knows

[brave blaze]

also the main reason i cleared my achievements on computer steam hk is because i had just used a modded save which gave me a bunch of achievements i didnt earn, so i took it into my own hands to do it all myself, and i ended uo getting 61/63 in two days

[brave blaze]

thank god, modern problems require modern solutikns

[alpine marsh]

I tried using Custom Knight but it didn't work and I didn't care enough to get help

[brave blaze]

i still need speedrun achiwvwments

[brave blaze]

didnt work?

[brave blaze]

ibhave a prontip

uh

u gotta

go fast

take the folder out of the skin folder

[brave blaze]

i got to city of tears and first dreamer in 15 mins then soent an hour sillying around in ancient basin for no reason

[brave blaze]

because usually those folders have 2 folders

for some reason

[brave blaze]

i died like five times to the stalker devouts in beasts den and still got sub 2 hours and 30 mins you can do it pluh

[brave blaze]

okay pluh

especially following the any% route is good

🤑

[alpine marsh]

I have specifically avoided using mods to do tasks I haven't done in vanilla (like, I used the debug mod to practice phases of AbsRad w/o her switching phases by giving both of us infinite health, but I didn't try to kill her that fight bc I hadn't beat her normally yet)

[brave blaze]

i cant do frame perfects when im speedrunning for some reason

😞

i get noob

but when im on steel soul being silly i can

[alpine marsh]

I got wings, shade dash, all three spell upgrades, two nail upgrades, and still got speedrun 1 lmao

[brave blaze]

althougu personally the hardest challenge i still havent completed was beating normal p5 on ps5 because the tv its connected to has input delay that when compared to the computer is game changing

its like my overall performance upped tenfold without input delay

[alpine marsh]

in 4 hours and 48 minutes

[brave blaze]

THATS impressive

[alpine marsh]

pro tip: the timer doesn't increment if the game is paused

[alpine marsh]

I ended up having like, an hour to beat THK

[brave blaze]

the hard part is how long some bosses take with non upgraded weapons

like a route i had included fighting soul tyrant really early with no nail upgrades and it took forever

[alpine marsh]

I also died like, 10 times to Watcher Knights. Also that was my first attempt at speedrun 1/2 which is the impressive part imo

[brave blaze]

watcher knights are silly ball guys

[alpine marsh]

wait actually idk if I got all spell upgrades

[brave blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-hornet-gif-5708028392904615756

[alpine marsh]

wait, how? I did extra stuff

[paper vapor]

yes

canonically tk doesnt die until the endings

[brave blaze]

magbe if we didnt grsb the same charms

[pure osprey]

That’s not possible

[paper vapor]

the shade mechanic is simply a mechanic

[alpine marsh]

wdym

what

[brave blaze]

i had a sub 5 run that ended with 23%

[alpine marsh]

oh maybe

[pure osprey]

Low % TE requires 23% that would mean you didn’t get upgrades

[brave blaze]

thats true ending

we talking normal ending

[pure osprey]

Oh

[alpine marsh]

oh I got a mask too

I can't remember if I got a vessel or not

[brave blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/clone-drone-in-the-danger-zone-yroue-gif-22600859

[alpine marsh]

I used the same file for speedrun 2 for speed completion so I can't remember what was done when

[brave blaze]

well chat im gonna hit the hay because im exhausted ultra sleepy and its really late for me

[alpine marsh]

I did not get wraiths actually

[brave blaze]

surprisingly unnecessary for especially speedrun situations

anyways, goodnight fellas

[alpine marsh]

ok so I think I did get wings, didn't get extra spells, did get two nail upgrades, did get a mask, did not get a vessel

[alpine marsh]

gn

[alpine marsh]

I kinda want to show my mom my attempt at P5 just to see her reaction (she does not play video games)

[cosmic cave]

look what i found a very rare rainbow rose

[solemn drum]

Update on my earlier statement,I have been awake for 3 days now and I hate radiance and marmu each and I am somehow getting worse

[cosmic cave]

NOM

delicious

[solemn drum]

Also the wall have started to whisper to me

[hot dune]

Respect.

[alpine marsh]

wtf

ofc you’re getting worse!

Sleep!

Burnout is a thing!

[solemn drum]

But

[alpine marsh]

You need breaks to get better!

S L E E P

sleep

sleep

[solemn drum]

Well... hear me out it worked for the other pantheons

[alpine marsh]

The other pantheons are easier

Go to bed

The giant echoing letters demand it

[solemn drum]

It's 2 am ....

[alpine marsh]

ECHO

ECHO

ECHO

Coincidentally your name lol

[solemn drum]

I'll pass out at some point

[alpine marsh]

Anyways srsly go to bed. You’ll be better if you’re well-rested

[solemn drum]

Alright, goodNight I'll probably get back at 4

[alpine marsh]

Okay I’ve gotten to PV in P5 for the second time, this time having practiced AbsRad

[alpine marsh]

AM or PM?

[solemn drum]

Am

[alpine marsh]

Oh damn PV is easy

[solemn drum]

Because the grind is the only thing that's real.
. And the adrenaline

[alpine marsh]

Uh

You’re getting 2 hours of sleep after 3 days without it?

[solemn drum]

2 hours is enough

[alpine marsh]

No, it’s rly not

[solemn drum]

But... I'll just drink some tea

Like 4 cups of matcha tea

[alpine marsh]

Nooo I died

The platform phase got me

[alpine marsh]

How’s that supposed to help

You need sleep

Oh shit I need sleep too

Not as much as you tho bc I actually sleep every day

[solemn drum]

I would sleep everyday but, I could be perfecting my skills in hollow knight, or working on my game, note on that... I forgot I need art work to game a game

I can't draw

[alpine marsh]

I have artist friends so if I need sprites for games I’ll just ask them :3

Also it’s common to work on functionality first and making good graphics laters

Like, just work with crudely drawn placeholder sprites that you can replace later

[solemn drum]

I'mjj⁸

[gaunt geyser]

Its vastly recommended to first work out the story and then continue around that concept

If your game has a story that is

[fading gazelle]

Yes

Because you are going to change most of the game at least 2 times

[outer ember]

[brave herald]

Idk how but I kept dying to Hornet Sentinal. Am I getting worse at the game?

[fallow sable]

day 2 of randomly pinging @willow scroll

[alpine marsh]

1. 115% isn’t possible in HK??
2. Hornet 2 literally took me longer than any other boss to date, including AbsRad, PV, and NKG

[steel wyvern]

skill scales with time

[brave herald]

Tbf, I haven't properly played in months but like... Damn, I'm doing God awful towards Hornet Sentinal

She's fast but that's it

Not much to it

[ionic moth]

I couldn’t sleep so I did this instead🫡

Just gonna drop this here,
My main build for the pantheons is quick nail, quick focus, strength, steady body and nailmasters (last one can vary because i just needed to fill it in)

With quick focus you can get 2 heals when he is staggered

But only two

Dont push it

[wind garden]

im using quick slash strengh mark of pride and soul catcher

[wispy panther]

Solid

Also if you hit him while he is in parry stance dash through him when he moves, i tried to dash away, didnt go well

[wind garden]

i think ur build is better

[hot dune]

WOÒOOOO

[wispy panther]

Epik

[hot dune]

One whole day later

[wispy panther]

Never try to to heal when he isnt staggered

He is a literal speed demon

Thanks!

[silk solstice]

guys i need help

[novel tendon]

I beat radiant pure vessel and radiant nkg today

[merry dove]

when is the server icon gonna stop being gay

[junior ocean]

never

[merry dove]

thats pretty gay

[silk solstice]

hate lgtbq

[novel tendon]

Or when silksong releases

[junior ocean]

u should refrain from making jokes like that

[merry dove]

do we know if there's gonna be another server dedicated to silksong or if this server will feature both

[novel tendon]

Probably this there's a silksong channel don't quote me tho

[junior ocean]

same server

[midnight oasis]

The plan is to add #sk-discussion (already here), #ss-lore, and ss-help to this server

[junior ocean]

silksong lore..

[merry dove]

cant wait to go crazy in ss-lore when I complete the game

[midnight oasis]

hope benji makes the first message of ss-lore "Lace is void"

[merry dove]

hopefully silksong lore will be easier to decipher, and tc doesnt stick with the corpses method

[merry dove]

holy crap this will be the best theory

[drifting cliff]

And then pins it 😌

[midnight oasis]

well HK doesn't really have a lot of very important lore hidden within corpse DND

[merry dove]

if tc makes a third hk game, just make its hornet/lace equivalent actually void 😄

[midnight oasis]

its mostly NPC dialogue

[merry dove]

thats true

but the NPCs still mostly dont know much, dont tell you much, or make it really hard to understand

[outer wind]

I did sly now i only need to do pure vessel nkg and moth

Im so close

[silk solstice]

And this thing

[slate spire]

oh wow!!!

I loved all of these!

[slate spire]

I like how pichu being so big in this foto lmaooo

[delicate tartan]

FINALLYYYYYYYYYYYYYyy

after all this time... i have the three of them

[brave blaze]

tiem for four

its written in the bees

[outer wind]

2 more bosses to go

[west mantle]

Markoth and absrad right

[outer wind]

Nah

Only absrad

Markoth i did a long time ago

And i just did nkg

I do the bosses in order

[hushed anchor]

My tierlist of all bosses

[junior ocean]

pretty big L

[hushed anchor]

why

[frigid island]

Now this is peak

[hushed anchor]

idk why people hate THK so much it's a good boss just a bad final boss

[torn kelp]

I think it makes sense that he’s easy lore wise

He’s been slowly broken down by the radiance over years of containment

So it makes sense that he’s weak

[junior ocean]

that is not really why, no.
its just a meta thing- TC knows people will spend many attempts for radiance, so THK cant be super hard

[torn kelp]

But we’re shown that when the radiance was first contained in the hollow knight he was incredibly strong

So it kinda fits

[junior ocean]

and THK is still strong

[torn kelp]

I have never once died to him

[junior ocean]

canonical power doesnt translate to gameplay

[torn kelp]

I mean all the other bosses felt like they had lore accurate strength

[junior ocean]

none of them rly do

[torn kelp]

I felt they did

[junior ocean]

the damage and health mechanics make no sense and have no correlation with lore

[torn kelp]

Soul has a direct correlation

Damage also has a correlation

[junior ocean]

hornet is one of the strongest beings in hallownest, and even when she claims to not hold back, the fight is still fairly easy

[rustic crescent]

I BEAT THE MOTH

[torn kelp]

I struggled with Hornet

[junior ocean]

i never mentioned soul, and no damage doesnt. you dont hit something and do X damage

[torn kelp]

The nail is reforged to be a pure nail

[torn kelp]

Presumably what it originally was

[junior ocean]

that means nothing and it seems youre missing the point entirely

[torn kelp]

I am unwavering in my opinion

For example troupe master Grimm

He’s limited to the bounds of the physical world

Nightmare king does not have these binds

Troupe master stays in the arena during the spike move

[junior ocean]

none of that is relevant

[torn kelp]

Nightmare king does not

[torn kelp]

Yes it is?

It proves my point that the bosses are accurate to their lore

[junior ocean]

it isnt an opinion; its objectively incorrect

[junior ocean]

that doesnt demonstrate that

[torn kelp]

Yes it does

The fact that nightmare king is stronger than troupe master directly proves that the bosses are accurate

Because it shows that the nightmare king has more power in the nightmare realm

[junior ocean]

its supposed to be a harder fight, but none of what youre saying demonstrates the fight is exact to their canonical power

[torn kelp]

I’m not saying it’s exact

[junior ocean]

hence this

[torn kelp]

I’m saying that they are for the most part accurate

[junior ocean]

that is still very wrong

[brisk oracle]

w-why me in A

[torn kelp]

The pure vessel is objectively far harder than the hollow knight and that’s not only for gameplay but is accurate to the lore

[junior ocean]

a fight being harder doesnt mean its related to its canonical strength

[junior ocean]

again this

[torn kelp]

The hollow knight was far stronger when he was first taking on the radiance than when he has had the radiance for years

[brisk oracle]

well, in all scenarios it has happened in, it does relate to canonical strenght

like nkg and tmg

thk and pv

[junior ocean]

and youre missing the point too

[torn kelp]

Thank you

[junior ocean]

a fight can be harder, but that doesnt mean its to any degree near its actual canonical strength

showing that a fight is harder is meaningless

[brave blaze]

NOOOOOO I WAS SO CLOSE TO FIRST TRYING RADIANT MARKOTH

[torn kelp]

Fuck markoth tbh

[junior ocean]

next time

[brave blaze]

im doing it againi

ae;ruigkjnjkhn

[paper vapor]

I think difficulty is a cool thing to back up with if it has merit in other ways

[brisk oracle]

yeah but where does it say this in game?

in most examples we have seen it to be true

[paper vapor]

Like pv is at its prime so it makes sense it’s more difficult

[junior ocean]

the burden of proof is on you

[brisk oracle]

and white defender compared to dung defender

[junior ocean]

you need to demonstrate that the fight is of its canonical strength, and accurate to it

[brave herald]

If I could give my mind on the matter. The Hollow Knight is meant to be, canonically, still extremely powerful yet what is shown to us doesn't really prove that. Yes, being encased for god knows how long made it weaker and slower but it is lore that infection makes one stronger (traitor Lord). Plus the fact that THK was trained to be an incredible fighter, it should mean that THK should be powerful.

[brisk oracle]

they do show it

[brave blaze]

its like traitor lord and mantis lords, the mantis lords are stronger in the fight because theyre more coordinated, but in actuality traitor lord has more general strength due to the infection, although the fight is, imo easier

or like sisters of battle and traitor lord is better comparison wise

[brisk oracle]

and they show his strength, with the 2 mask dmg (though its a weak argument)

[undone chasm]

What even is canonical strength

Canonically tk beats the shit out of everyone

[brisk oracle]

how strong a character is in the lore

[junior ocean]

power/abilties of a character in the games narrative

[brave herald]

Anyway, I'd probably could add more to this frivolous argument but I am too tired staying up late for a FN Live Event. I'll see ya'll later.

[brisk oracle]

not massive moss charger

[torn kelp]

Best boss in the game

[junior ocean]

this is never once shown

there are situations however that show the opposite

[brisk oracle]

just cause knight wipes the floor with some bosses in game doesnt mean the bosses arent strong in their own respect

[torn kelp]

Like what

[junior ocean]

that is never a point i made

and that point is entirely irrelevant

[brave blaze]

i think we can all agree that fortnite battlepass floors pv and thk

[junior ocean]

the discussion is regarding canonical strength, not if the boss is "strong in their own respect"

[outer eagle]

ello

[brisk oracle]

the bosses do show canonical strength, in all comparisons

THK being weaker then PV

NKG being stronger than TMG

WD being stronger than DD

[brave herald]

Hades > THK & PV

[brave blaze]

realllllllllllllllllllll

[brisk oracle]

yoo I love hades

(the game)

[junior ocean]

again that is not what the discussion was about

Yes it was

[brave blaze]

god of war 3 is such a fun game, my favorite of the original trilogy

[brave blaze]

on his feets 😎

[torn kelp]

That’s explicitly what we were talking about

[undone chasm]

I require a feet pic of him to validate that statement

[brisk oracle]

I gotchu

[junior ocean]

it never was; everytime youve mentioned it as a point ive said that wasnt the topic and ive italicized the topic several times to ensure you knew what it was

the OP wasnt about that either

saying that is "explictly" the topic is dishonest and in bad faith

[torn kelp]

Fun fact topics can transition to different things

[junior ocean]

it never did

[undone chasm]

Why do you get to decide the topic instead of them

[junior ocean]

dont try to justify the poor reasoning as 'the topic is being changed'

[torn kelp]

Exactly

[torn kelp]

Oh shit sorry I didn’t mean to ping reply

My b

[undone chasm]

No worries

[junior ocean]

we should go play HK

[undone chasm]

No hk sucks

[brisk oracle]

but we gotta admit

Massive Moss Charger is the strongest boss

[torn kelp]

Wtflip

[brave blaze]

next to vengeflies

[junior ocean]

hopefully you can see this makes no sense

[torn kelp]

True

[torn kelp]

That’s not at all what I was ok about?

[brave blaze]

seems normal to me

[junior ocean]

if you want to discuss something else sure, but dont bring it up as evidence when the discussion was never about that

[torn kelp]

You are speaking yappanese I don’t understand any of your argument

[junior ocean]

lets play any radiance!!

[brave blaze]

sure

wait nvm i cant

i going somewhere

i have no clue man

[torn kelp]

No clue

[junior ocean]

ya ik u didnt understand everytime you brought up something completely irrelevant

[torn kelp]

At this point I’m prolly just gonna block them and move on

[brisk oracle]

aight

[junior ocean]

then why are u engaging

[brisk oracle]

2.0 or 3.0?

[brave blaze]

pure vessel more like not pure vessel

[brisk oracle]

nuh uh

[torn kelp]

Because I wanted to try and understand your argument instead of getting irrationally upset?

[junior ocean]

you didnt

[brisk oracle]

anyways should I do 2.0 or 3.0?

[torn kelp]

Like a civil person instead of just calling you a dickwad and moving on

[brave blaze]

boom roasted

It isn’t anything serious

I don’t know why the other person is getting so worked up about this

It’s just a game

i think im slightly too obsessed with hollow knight

[torn kelp]

Me too

[brave blaze]

welcome to the gang

I’ve had the game for a week and a half and have put in 110 hours

this is for hk and off topic

Shovel knight prolly

[crude fiber]

hey guys, question for the achievement "leave zote to die" do i need to leave him in the greenpath fly area or the spider area

[valid escarp]

endure is more honest

[undone chasm]

Pretty cool

[brave blaze]

oh i thought it was for strictly hk

[crude fiber]

i've tried it before

none have worked

[torn kelp]

The green path area

[crude fiber]

so im confused

[covert current]

dracula from symphony of the night

[crude fiber]

huh,

[valid escarp]

[crude fiber]

ok

[torn kelp]

You just have to leave him there for like a long ass time

[junior ocean]

good job zal

[torn kelp]

And come back a long time later

[brave blaze]

i knew it was castlevania raaaaa

thats so real

[torn kelp]

Still haven’t played castlevania

That’s actually a really good thing to know

I didn’t know the specifics

[brave blaze]

unrelated but windwaker is a super underrated zelda game

[junior ocean]

this is a very unprecedented PFP change 😨

[torn kelp]

THATS SO REAL

[brave blaze]

people hated ww at first because they wanted realisric zelda

but holy shit

i grew up on that game

[torn kelp]

It’s one of the best open worlds nintendos ever made

[brave blaze]

playing botw and totk and hearing hints of the dragon roost island theme made me so happy

[junior ocean]

OSU mentioned?!

[brave blaze]

also molgera’s theme is a fucking bop

i know this is a popular sentiment but alttp is definitely the best 2d zelda

i know too bad nintendo is a greedy ass company who will sue a 2 year old for using mario at a birthday party

[torn kelp]

I didn’t like botw or totk because they were just clunky to me

They were just so different to control than any other game I’d played before

[torn kelp]

I could never get used to the controls

[brave blaze]

honestly i loved totk but its not a game i’d replay, sometimes it felt a bit of a drag, but colgera being the first boss i fought in totk really got me hyped for the others

[brisk oracle]

Minecraft

[brave blaze]

it sucks the master sword is so underpowered in totk and botw

[torn kelp]

I just couldn’t get through how much of a drag the start of them are

[torn kelp]

Like it was so slowww

[brisk oracle]

@brave blaze I'm thinking of getting GoW 2018 soon on my steam deck, is it worth it?

[brave blaze]

i may get attacked for this but majoras mask MAY be a little overrated, albeit a fucking phenomenal game but i feel like for what its worth the game wasnt.. revolutionary compared to oot

[torn kelp]

This is real

Once again couldn’t enjoy it

[brave blaze]

yes, i am probably so biased but gow 2018 is so fun, throwing a giant fuckijg axe and controlling this beast of a man compared to the originals with the blades of chaos its so cool

[torn kelp]

The Zelda games I enjoy are windwaker, the og one and link to the past

[brave blaze]

to me its definitely worthwhile

[torn kelp]

The game boy link to the past remake specifically

[brisk oracle]

I also play Immortals Fenyx Rising

if y#all have ever heard of that

[brave blaze]

i think im just not big into extensive side quests

[torn kelp]

I am

I love that shit

i prefer linear esque games

[misty pike]

AWW YEAH
I unlocked the lifeblood room!
Legit, this is a big achievement for me as a HK player
Last year, I could never beat ANY Pantheon with ANY binding at all!
But this time, I actually beat Lvl 10 GPZ, and that gave me enough confidence in my skills to attempt the bindings (each individually, not all at once)
And I actually unlocked the lifeblood room!
I'm super proud of myself, but I'm not stopping here
I'm doing the other two Pantheons with the bindings!

[brave blaze]

LETS GOOOOO

NICE JOB MAN

[misty pike]

Thx :D

[brave blaze]

i have faith you can do the other two pantheons

:Dds

:DD

[misty pike]

One question, Ik the amount of LB masks you get from the bench rooms in GH increases when you complete 12 and 16 bindings, but if I activate the LB now, will it stay at the normal about of LB masks even when I beat P3 and P4's bindings?

Or will it still increase?

[brave blaze]

you can activate it at any time, it will increase anyways once you do 3 and 4

[misty pike]

Ok good
