[grizzled vector]

I will consider it

[lyric pawn]

Its awesome.

thats where i did the 106% run.

1 year ago

[unkempt storm]

Hollow knight for the ds?

[lyric pawn]

now i got a pc and bought hollow knoght

[lyric pawn]

mobile

😭

unofficial port

with like 5 buttons

uhh

[grizzled vector]

Emulator?

[lyric pawn]

well

[unkempt storm]

The switch?

[lyric pawn]

no

screen

[lyric pawn]

no

apk

if u search it on yt you will prob find it

[grizzled vector]

Ah

Kay

[lyric pawn]

yeah ok i was joking dont try it

its prob harder

than PC

[unkempt storm]

Joycons have 6 buttons

[grizzled vector]

I guessed it

What are your controls on pc?

I based my controls on Hollow Knight based on Arkham controls

As I played the Arkham games fast

[lyric pawn]

default

i play with keyboard

[grizzled vector]

I use keyboard and mouse 🐁

[lyric pawn]

mouse?? how

i use z x and c

a s and d too

and uh arrow keys

probably used to it now

[young otter]

default

[grizzled vector]

I use wasd for movement

Like in most games

Left click for attack

And right click for dash*

And space for jump

[young otter]

?

[young otter]

wdym

[grizzled vector]

Sorry

I meant dash

[young otter]

ah

[lyric pawn]

for heall??

and spell?

and dash

q and e?

[grizzled vector]

Shift

[grizzled vector]

Same button as heal

[grizzled vector]

Right mouse button

Hold scroll for crystal dash

[lyric pawn]

i see

[lyric pawn]

should i switch

to ur

[grizzled vector]

No

[lyric pawn]

shift for spells will take some time ngl 😭

[grizzled vector]

I mean

[lyric pawn]

oh ok

[grizzled vector]

Your choice

[lyric pawn]

WHY No

[grizzled vector]

But I'm not convincing you

[grizzled vector]

You can if you want to, but I don't think you have to

[lyric pawn]

okay!

[grizzled vector]

Play with the controls you are comfortable with

[lyric pawn]

ahahah

wasd

[young otter]

if the controls work for you then there's nothing wrong with it tbh

I prefer default personally

[brave blaze]

the second its April 30 ill put in as much as i need to

4-3 is good

its 4-1 and 4-4 that need the changes

Dark levels are mid

hi all I wanna ask, will installing a mod disable Steam achievements? I wanna get the Pale Court mod which adds a few bosses, but I still have some stuff to do like ||pantheon 4 and 5, and last charm||

not just steam achievements, will it affect or lock me out of anything else?

[midnight oasis]

They don't disable them

[undone chasm]

?tag achievements

[river dome]

Modding and Achievements

• Mods do not normally prevent you from getting Achievements.
  • If you want to prevent them, you can use the Disable Achievements mod.
  • If a mod changes/removes something that's part of an achievement trigger, then you won't get that achievement.
• In many cases, achievements are still earned, but the pop-ups do not come up when modding.
• In some rare cases, players report not getting achievements when modding. While this is not normal, it should be mentioned that it can happen.
  • This is often tied to them doing something like skipping something with QoL (such as credits), and thus skipping the actual trigger for the Achievement.
  • Some mods that rely on SFCore such as Hallownest Vocalized can sometimes prevent achievements from working.

[limpid chasm]

thnx

Sentinel hornet won't let me breathe. Im in front of my computer for 7 HOURS, and im still stuck

[delicate sigil]

It's mainly a lot of practice mixed with non-aggression.

Hornet 2 rushes at you most of the time.

I wouldn't suggest chasing her around unless you have the reaction time to dodge.

[viscid steppe]

Die over and over oh wait that's just me

[delicate sigil]

Explore!

[brave blaze]

I spent 2 months fighting hornet sentinel with no upgrades, no nail upgrades, and no healing. It was pretty worth it since I learned to beat her hitless for radiant lmfao

Damn, I sure most definitley hope they get the actual queen Elizabeth the II to play herself in that movie

[odd fractal]

They did, it was her last appearance in a move before her death in 2022

@midnight void

[midnight void]

I messed everything up again

My bad

[novel canyon]

I have 100% hk

[surreal oak]

Hi everyone

[pseudo pilot]

hai

[midnight void]

Howdy

[nova frigate]

hello everyone.

yesterday i finished 2 runs of hollow knight. 1 was 127% pantheon 5 run in like 15h (i played multiple days but ended it yesterday) and the other one was Steel soul 114% with seal siblings ending. now im going to do the HK ending and try to get the hunter achievements. so i finally get 63/63 advancements. my last 3 are the HK ending and the hunter ones.

[raw chasm]

127 and 114..?

[nova frigate]

yea. my pantheon 5 ending was 127% and my steel soul was 114%

[raw chasm]

How

[nova frigate]

or somewhere close like that, gus i dont remember the exact %

wtym how

[raw chasm]

Max percentage in HK is 112

[nova frigate]

idfk then, it showed something like that.

wait, ill go look

[raw chasm]

[nova frigate]

but i got to warn you, i deleted the pantheon 5 run

nwm, the steel soul one says 109%

[raw chasm]

[nova frigate]

yea, im dumb

these are all the saves and things i got rn

[raw chasm]

Almost all achievements in 28 hours is INSANE

[pseudo pilot]

wtf is this

A speedrun?

lmao

[nova frigate]

i dont know, many of them are boss achievements and dream achevements, i did have a tab open with all the advancements so i could speerun them

[nova frigate]

yea, kinda. i got the game like the day before yesterday and ive been grinding it since. (i had played it before on my friends acc)

[raw chasm]

p5 in 28 hours

And a 109 steel soul run on top

My mainsave is at 109 and I have 52 hours on that save alone

[nova frigate]

damn, really!?

i mean, im half way there lol

[raw chasm]

28 hours is like mach 6 bud

You're going at lightning speed

[whole pike]

Peak glitches

[raw chasm]

Some people take over 100 hours

[nova frigate]

i thought this was like normal...

[whole pike]

P5 + pop + 112% was like 250 hours for me

[raw chasm]

Exactly

[nova frigate]

okay so im like doing something wrong?...

[raw chasm]

No you're just cracked

[whole pike]

God gamer

[nova frigate]

no, im not that good, honestly

[raw chasm]

Sir

"not that good"

[nova frigate]

i guess watching fireborn does help lol

[whole pike]

Ahem

[raw chasm]

I watched plenty of HK before playing the game

[whole pike]

cough cough

[raw chasm]

Beating p5 is not for "not that good" gamers, especially that fast

[nova frigate]

me too, i swear i watched like all of fireborns speerdunner vs hunters for like 20 times, 100 hours at least

[whole pike]

I don't understand how tf u got 109% in four hours?
It takes me forever to do everything if I am not speedruning

[nova frigate]

well, i was trying to speedrun the advancements...

[raw chasm]

its possible ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[nova frigate]

the p5 was just an obsticle to overcome, fast

[raw chasm]

"not that good" he says

Bro is the second coming of Magolor5k

[nova frigate]

i swear, im not that good 😓

[whole pike]

P5 was 60 hours of suffering for me 😭
U can't say you are not good

[raw chasm]

Next bro is gonna have done RadHoG in another 3 hours

[whole pike]

Lmao

@nova frigate do rP5ab
Fr fr

[nova frigate]

also, quick note, im not too familiar with the abbreviations...

[raw chasm]

An hour later: did it

[raw chasm]

Pantheon of Hallownest with all bindings enabled

[whole pike]

Hitless pantheon 5 all bindings

[whole pike]

r = hitless

[raw chasm]

Oops

I saw the P and didn't see the r

[nova frigate]

never hitless, im too bad for hitless, im clumsy

[raw chasm]

Usually that would just be r5ab

[whole pike]

Oh my bad

[whole pike]

Then do p5ab
Also u ain't bad
Thats normal

[raw chasm]

p5 all bindings is quite difficult

[nova frigate]

how long would it NORMALLY take??

[whole pike]

P5ab?

[nova frigate]

now im scared tbh 😭

[nova frigate]

yea

[whole pike]

Like 100+ hours

[raw chasm]

112: 100+ hours

p5ab on its own: another 100 probably

For some people

If you build up to it with the other pantheons first

[nova frigate]

MAN i dont got 100 hours, i got like 14, is that enough lol

[whole pike]

200 hours sounds more normal

[whole pike]

For what ?

[nova frigate]

not even 200h, i got school tomorrow, if i want to do it i got to do it today.

[raw chasm]

You ain't no normal player you can probably do it in a couple hours

[nova frigate]

also, is that why it shows you the time on p5? gus it takes so long?

[whole pike]

Wait your main save is fucking 14 hours?

[nova frigate]

nah i thing i deleted my main.

[whole pike]

The save you beat p5 on?

[nova frigate]

yea

i think it had 14h yesterday when i started, but i played for like 8h so maybe like 22h total

[junior condor]

Speedrunning HK if anyone wants to watch

[nova frigate]

[junior condor]

so still not got one?

sad story

my advice... i dont got any advice... i got lucky. but good consept

[latent blade]

You should watch 365

[nova frigate]

sure

[latent blade]

I see you play terraria pretty cool

I wish I could play it more

[nova frigate]

ty, yes i do. but i havent played for MONTHS

[junior ocean]

367 was the worst one

[nova frigate]

oh i do remember one thing, while doing the p1ab i stressed out so much gus i was at 1 health and i think i was fighting brothers, so i turned on god mode irl and did it hitless gus i couldnt have time to heal. my best and only time doing a boss hitless

[latent blade]

[latent blade]

Bro turned god mode irl

[nova frigate]

i saw the binding things and didnt know what they did so i just equipped them all and tried it.

imagine i now understood that i did p5ab... including all other pantheons....

also, good stuff on day 365. i enjoied it

but i gtg, family obligations.

[latent blade]

Leave

Peace

[nova frigate]

Now im back, now on my phone

[whole pike]

Do p5ab

[nova frigate]

Anyways, i think i did p5 with ab. As well as all other pantheons. Accidentally

I thought it was supposed to be so hard.

Pls dont start freaking out . I didnt know what i was doing

[raw chasm]

Ah so he came back and said he already did p5ab
I was wrong ig

[nova frigate]

It was the save i did p5. I just didnt know what bindings were

Now im mad that i deleted it. I thought it was cool but not a bid deal doing p5ab

Yk whats funny. I unlocked the godhome mode after doing p5ab. Most likely the only person to ever do that.

[raw chasm]

Wha

You unlock godseeker from p3

[lyric pawn]

is there any other use for arcane egg?

[raw chasm]

No

Same with the other relics

[lyric pawn]

Ok thanks

[nova frigate]

Litterally just for geo

[nova frigate]

Idk, i remember doing pantheons with ab and unlocking godseeker at some point.

Because if there is no confidence there is no learning. I remember doing the pantheon on ab when i got godseeker, what pantheon it was i dont remember. But if you say its p3 i belive you.

[pseudo pilot]

nuh uh

[pseudo pilot]

It's a bit weird

It's unlocked when the game detects you've gotten any pantheon on a save with p3 done

Including p3

[nova frigate]

Well i did all the pantheons with ab and i went through them in order.

[brave blaze]

[midnight void]

Wtf

[brave blaze]

These emojis are very conveying of emotions

[pseudo pilot]

vessel

pretty good

[midnight void]

[pseudo pilot]

lmao

[brave blaze]

Ah yes, the man who lives in the state of America USA, in the great country of the United States of America

[lyric pawn]

@peak violet HEY

[sturdy galleon]

hello hollow knighters

[lyric pawn]

hey

which charms do i use for grimm

[sturdy galleon]

soul catcher

[lyric pawn]

that costs alot

[lyric pawn]

what else with it

[midnight void]

2 notches

[lyric pawn]

oh

oop

[lyric pawn]

what do i replace it with tho

sharp shadow?

[sturdy galleon]

this is controversial but dashmaster

[lyric pawn]

I see

[sturdy galleon]

NO! grimmchild

[lyric pawn]

buut i need grimmchild to triger the fight

[sturdy galleon]

good

[lyric pawn]

is this good

i have sharp shadow now aswell

[sturdy galleon]

great

[lyric pawn]

ok bet

ill try my best

[sturdy galleon]

you're ready to go

[lyric pawn]

thank u izze averagelegs

[lyric pawn]

i died

[sturdy galleon]

sad, is that normal grimm>

[lyric pawn]

yeah

im NEW

i always get hit at the part where he becomes a ball and shoots alot of uh fireballs

[sturdy galleon]

just jump

[lyric pawn]

how do i avoid that

.

awesome

[brave blaze]

Just do small jumps instead of full ones

[lyric pawn]

alright

[sturdy galleon]

who does full jumps?(in the grimm fight)

[lyric pawn]

me

OK RETR

[brave blaze]

also once the fireballs start striking in the middle, head slightly towards grimm so you don’t get trapped by the walls

[sturdy galleon]

for me, i always go to the left or right corner

so i wont have to deal with many at the same time

[brave blaze]

Yeah same

Wanna know how I beat nkg?

[sturdy galleon]

i beat nkg

its the same thing

[brave blaze]

Nice

[sturdy galleon]

i have adapted to nkg and pv

[brave blaze]

So uh to beat nkg, I used ||G U N||

[sturdy galleon]

vengeful spirit

[lyric pawn]

how many phases does it have

4?

[brave blaze]

No actually, I used the AK-47

[brave blaze]

3

[lyric pawn]

tthanks

[sturdy galleon]

every fireball = 25%

[lyric pawn]

should be easy once i get the ahng of it

hang

[lyric pawn]

ah

so

[brave blaze]

Just deal as much spell damage in the first 2 stages so 3 will be a cakewalk

[lyric pawn]

3

okay

[sturdy galleon]

i dont consider them phases as nothing changes

[brave blaze]

Well yeah its sort of more like a healing opportunity

[nova frigate]

NKG is rather easy, no? Its pretty repetitive so just autopilot it. Honestly i think the dream version is annoying as hell.

[sturdy galleon]

nkg is easy

its has no rng, meaning if you beat it one time, you will never struggle again

unlike gpz

[brave blaze]

Nkg is gim on steroids

[nova frigate]

Fr. I hate Gray zote the most, so annoying.

[sturdy galleon]

opposite

[brave blaze]

Oop mb I got it incorrectly, I mean’t nkg is grimmchild but nerfed for fair game balancing purposes

[nova frigate]

Okay quick question, does grim troupe actually do anything except completion?

[brave blaze]

Well you get to upgrade the fragile charms, and its pretty much just dlc content

[sturdy galleon]

grimmchild, unbreakable strength, greed and etc

[nova frigate]

So just charms?

[sturdy galleon]

and also carefree melody

and new npc

[brave blaze]

Yeah charms and completion

[sturdy galleon]

some charm notches aswell

[brave blaze]

Plus you also get kool bossfight with it

[brave blaze]

Oh yeah I forgot grimm gives a charm notch on defeat

[nova frigate]

Honestly feels like a big side quest...

[brave blaze]

It pretty much is…its pretty important for completionists, the grimm troupe is optional if your just a regular player looking to play the game

[sturdy galleon]

cant play the game without one of the best bosses in the game

[midnight void]

Lmao nickname update

[brave blaze]

You kinda have to do the troupe if you want to fully experience the epicness of hollow knight

[nova frigate]

I think grimm troupe is a cool thing to do, makes you visit the whole map, but it isnt important for the story/lore.

[brave blaze]

Yeah, the only thing I’m missing for 112% is pantheon 4

[nova frigate]

Nice. So grinding that today?

[brave blaze]

I mean they have some cool side lore for sure too

But yeah its not too important for the main story

[sturdy galleon]

yeah if it wasnt for the grimm troupe i would've never gone to the hive

[nova frigate]

I think if grimm troupe was important for the lore/main objective then i would enjoy it even more

[sturdy galleon]

if you have the dream nail then youre good enough to fight grimm without charms

[brave blaze]

I would but I’m trying to beat all bosses on radiant first (excluding the ones unlocked in pantheon 5) also my laptop broke so I can’t grind :<

[tiny wraith]

grimm just get me pregnant

[brave blaze]

Real real

[tiny wraith]

lsdklkdlakdlakdalkdalkdaçwlkd

[nova frigate]

Honestly grim reminds me of helluva boss/hazbin hottel

[tiny wraith]

this game is realy fuckin my mind

[sturdy galleon]

grimm is way older than both

[nova frigate]

Really similar to alastor imo

[tiny wraith]

[tiny wraith]

yea....

[sturdy galleon]

And Grimm has better writing than Hazbin/Helluva

[tiny wraith]

[nova frigate]

And since i like both of those things i really like grim and the art of it

[tiny wraith]

fuck yea

[nova frigate]

Hell yes.

[tiny wraith]

mano daqui a pouco eu vou dar para o grimm, ele é uma delicia

[brave blaze]

Hell yeah

[sturdy galleon]

i never understood the appeal of hazbin/helluva

[nova frigate]

I think they are cool and funny, i watch them with my gf

[brave blaze]

It has great animation but not so great writing, I’d watch em’ both on mute ngl

[nova frigate]

Lmao

[brave blaze]

[sturdy galleon]

The funny in question is just dicks

[nova frigate]

Yea, i think the sexual jokes do get repetitive wich is why i dont like the writing

[brave blaze]

We of course can’t forget the totally very extremely funny “humor”

[brave blaze]

I mean a few would be fine but every second of the shows contain them

[sturdy galleon]

separatist movement

[nova frigate]

Honestly i just watch it when im with my gf, once a month kind of stuff

[brave blaze]

Nice

[nova frigate]

I should study the speerun tactics and start speedrunning

Might get a good time even 🤷‍♂️

[lyric pawn]

ping? 🥲

[hidden dragon]

"zot" in Albanian means god

[sturdy galleon]

go bick to your cant

[chilly siren]

Bosses on pantheon 1 after beating it ranked by difficulty

First two places are the only one that i died too

1. Brooding Mawlek (idk why he caused me so much problem, he Has so much hp There, he was way easier in main game )

2. Brothers Oro and Mato

3. Soul Warrior

4. Hornet Protector

5. Gorb

6. Dung Defender

7. False Knight

8. Gruz Mother

9. Massive Moss Charger

10. Vengefly King

[manic rock]

Same for brooding mawlek

[dry monolith]

thanks bro

[nova frigate]

Brooding mawlek is dodge, hit, hit, dodge until he starts jumping then you just dash under him. Pretty repetitive imo, but i understand, the first time i played i nearly died to it aswell, p1ab was also difficult but i got the pattern down and then its was easy.

[dry monolith]

how is soul warrior on thi list bro 💀

he is EZ radient

(took me 1 hour and 20 mins tho)

[wary vale]

how is false knight on the list surely its not because hes in p1

i just realized i clicked on hk offtopic instead of hk discussion

[nova frigate]

I agree, the attacks are somewhat annoying but its doable, i would put it lower down on ranking tbh

[wary vale]

if id rate them all uhh

oro & mato > gorb > soul warrior > brooding mawlek > hornet > dung defender > gruz mother > massive moss charger > vengefly king > false knight

it probably appears weird just because i havent played the game in a long time so i kind of forgot the difficulties

[nova frigate]

I would but them as so.
Brothers
Dung defender
Soul warrior
Gorb
Mawlek
Hornet
False knight
Gruz
Massive moss
Vengfly king

But i would note, everything from mawlek and down is very easy

[wary vale]

yeah soul warrior and gorb are about same difficulty

[nova frigate]

I would say they are annoying not difficult

[wary vale]

speaking from my experience beating htem in radiant

even tho gorb has a more difficult arena in ascended and radiant hes still slightly annoying

[nova frigate]

Fr. Gorb and soul warrior are annoying in all versions, but not doable

[wary vale]

yeah there really isnt anything to say about p1 except a few bosses

speaking about p3

gpz should burn

[nova frigate]

Gpz? Still not good with the abbreviations

[wary vale]

grey prince zote

[nova frigate]

Gray prince zote?

[wary vale]

yup

[nova frigate]

Yea i agree

He sucks

[wary vale]

i still think hes literally the worst radiant

[nova frigate]

Too many different moves to predict what he will do

[wary vale]

hes the only one i fluked and never bothered with him ever again after doing radhall of gods :zotetroll:

[nova frigate]

I did radiant mantis lords and never bothered to do others, i also deleted the save where i did p5ab so now i got to make a new save

[wary vale]

sure i fluked it but its better than saying i beat 43 bosses radiant rather than 44

[nova frigate]

I mean 43 rad bosses is still good.

[wary vale]

if you completed p3 you unlock the godseeker mode which is a fresh save with literally every equipment and it locks you in godhome with a fancy hud

[nova frigate]

Oh, well i got it, so ill just start with that

[wary vale]

you also unlock everything too except p4 and p5 which you have to unlock by beating the pantheons

i think

nor do you get the lifeblood cocoon unlock immediately you have to work for that too

[nova frigate]

I mean thats not hard, my first time ever doing pantheons i did them all in order with ab.

[wary vale]

nice

i did like p1ab then p2eb and p4eb i think

[nova frigate]

Including p5

[wary vale]

daym i never did p5

its just too boring for me 😭

[nova frigate]

Truat me, you dont want to, its pain

[wary vale]

i genuinely dont enjoy going through the first 20 bosses over and over again wasting 25 minutes just to get to the hard part

combat is slightly fun but the bosses are just too shrimple

[nova frigate]

P5ab is torture, but i did it, in like 14h i 112%-ed the game and finished the p5ab

Sorry, not 14h like 18-19h

[wary vale]

i also got the speedrun achievements and steel soul 100 percent

oh i remembered ive always considered making a harder mod but i was in a pretty long coding burnout

[nova frigate]

Same, im 60/63 Achievement

I wish i knew how to make mods, i know how to code but not how to mod

[wary vale]

which languages do you know

maybe its not that hard if you know like javascript good enough to the level of being able to learn another language just as easily

[nova frigate]

C+, python, arduino, java. You name it i most likely know it

[wary vale]

c++ god damn

yeah csharp will be piss easy i think especially since its similar to java

[nova frigate]

Yea c++ as well

[wary vale]

as for unity modding and hmm hollow knight's very good and totally not broken for me visual scripting plugin modding i think its not too hard

[nova frigate]

Oh, alright. I might look into it if i have free time lol

[wary vale]

sure

im actually in the mood of making more mods for this horrible game again after 2 years of inactivity in the modding scene but i also have another pretty big project im working on and real life pressure at the same time so maybe not soon

[chilly siren]

Yeah

All 3-10 places could be on the same place

They are all easy

[nova frigate]

Yk what, if you could make it so grimm troupe is essential for finishing a game i would love to play that, i feel as if grimm troupe is a big side quest for completionists and not actually needed for the main game, but if you could change that then it would make a good experience.

Yk what i mean?

[whole pike]

WHAT IN THE WORLD?
U did p5ab in 15 hours?

[nova frigate]

Nah nah, more like 19

[whole pike]

Grim is essential to the game
He gives a notcv and alot a percentage

[whole pike]

That's fucking crazy just p5 alone took me 60 hours 😭

[nova frigate]

Yea but if its just a side quest, not really PART of the main game

[nova frigate]

Idk what to say, i did it while i was hunting achievements and acccidentally did it with all bindings

And sadly i deleted it which im mad at

I guess i got to do it again.

I'll report it here when i do it again, see you in 2 days

[final jolt]

i thought gpz was super easy and didt understand why people hated him

i mean, sure, he is easy

but like

hes easy on the other 2 difficulties

not on radiant of all things

i wasl ike oh why are people so upset about this guy hes reallyeasy and then i looked at hall of gods and my face dropped

[green swift]

why does ori will of the wisps feel like a bigger map than HK or is it just me

[light grove]

Question can I post link's here?

[midnight oasis]

If they link to something within the rules yeah

[calm bridge]

Chat i cleared the Spirit's Glade, How evil am i ? There is no one left, even the guard.
how evil am i?

[native panther]

Hk sucks because there's no fishing minigame

[native panther]

You're not evil because they're fictional characters and your actions have no consequences
Also you asked the question twice

[calm bridge]

ik, i meant in-game

[native panther]

The player character is not evil because they have no mind to think

[calm bridge]

does the game count that as an unecessary action?

[drifting cliff]

The game doesn't give a shit

[obsidian copper]

Guys who should I draw

Imma draw grimm

[graceful bramble]

peak thing to draw

draw gruz mother

[obsidian copper]

I just did grimm

I'll do gruz mother later

[graceful bramble]

[obsidian copper]

Hornet protector or hornet sentinel

[small pewter]

Sentinel

[obsidian copper]

You'll hate pantheon 3

You have to fight (in the second half) galien, zote, uumuu, and then hornet sentinel. I hate zote istg

[small pewter]

[obsidian copper]

I haven't beaten it yet

[small pewter]

Im going to do it for quirrel

[obsidian copper]

YES

[small pewter]

YAYY!!!

Congrats!!

[obsidian copper]

Fr

[nova frigate]

well i just got home, its past my bedtime but ill make the godseeker saves and the challange saves.

so if i remember correctly the first thing on the challange list was getting the wraiths, thats in greenpath which means i need to kill baldur without VS... maybe longnail and then precise damaging?

[dense vault]

it's very possible to do without longnail

all you need to do is ping eloki and pray she tells you how

[raw chasm]

Do you have access to Queen's Station or like only Crossroads?

[nova frigate]

well i cant get any skill/charm before wraiths so i might go and get longnail. or, is it possible to go some other route to greenpath.. idk go to city and then through everything else to greenpath

i cant use any other spells/skils before wraiths so i need to get to greenpath without any other upgrade.

[raw chasm]

Oh

[drifting cliff]

I'm pretty sure the route was made to force no spell baldur

[raw chasm]

Yeah then you either have to do Longnail or itemless baldur

[nova frigate]

this was the challange.

All Skills, but you are forced to get the skills in this order:
Howling Wraiths
Mothwing Cloak
Shade Cloak
Cyclone Slash
Vengeful Spirit
Monarch Wings
Shade Soul
Desolate Dive
Isma's Tear
Crystal Heart
Descending Dark
Great Slash
Dash Slash
Abyss Shriek
Mantis Claw

so i dont see why i cant just go to city and then to greenpath, unless i need claw for city

[drifting cliff]

How do you plan to get to City?

[raw chasm]

You can get Dreamshield itemless iirc but not City

[nova frigate]

oh wait, right, no skip into fungal, yea i need to do baldur without vs

[drifting cliff]

Ig you could itemless blue lake

[raw chasm]

Yeah

Either itemless baldur or itemless blue lake for dreamshield

[nova frigate]

which is easier?

[raw chasm]

Idk

[nova frigate]

or 1800 geo for lantern

[drifting cliff]

Picking up longnail

[raw chasm]

Does longnail baldur even work anymore

[drifting cliff]

Good question

[nova frigate]

i can try it rq on another save.

gimme a sec

[raw chasm]

Also it's frame perfect if it even still works be warned

[nova frigate]

by long nail you mean JUSt longnail or sum else as well gus JUST longnail not working

[raw chasm]

Moch is pretty trustworthy on this, right?

So yeah you need dreamshield

[nova frigate]

yea i think so gus i tried with longnail and its not long enough

[raw chasm]

You spent less than a minute trying a frame perfect before saying it's not working

[nova frigate]

no i can SEE its not long enough

[raw chasm]

It never looked like it was long enough but it barely was

Frame perfect for a reason

[nova frigate]

fine, ill go try it more then.

[raw chasm]

No it's fine

[raw chasm]

Moch is pretty knowledgeable on this stuff so he would know

[fresh solar]

Wait what is shade soul

I missed it

[raw chasm]

You gotta do itemless blue lak

[raw chasm]

Upgraded VS

[fresh solar]

VS?

[raw chasm]

Vengeful Spirit

[fresh solar]

What the hell is vengeful spirit

[raw chasm]

The literal FIRST ABILITY YOU PICK UP

[fresh solar]

Oh the dash?

Or the projectile?

What is shade cloak

How did I miss so many abilities O_O

[nova frigate]

so i got to do the itemless blue lake, ill try it then, but dreamshield works right, 100%

[dense vault]

yes

[nova frigate]

how does that even work, the dreamshield is too short to just stand there, i got to make it so baldur opens up and i run at it perfectly?

[dense vault]

it's awesome!! i recomend not going to any of the hk channels while on your first playthrough they WILL spoil you

[fresh solar]

I think so far I have Projectile->Dash->Crystal heart->Double jump

[dense vault]

@warm shard ibaldur

[fresh solar]

Gotcha

[nova frigate]

and what is that, i dont know the abbreviations

[dense vault]

killing the greenpath baldur without items

eloki is like the person who invented it

[hidden dragon]

Holy frick, 18.5k results for "git gud"

[young nimbus]

did you just maybe consider he hasnt picked it up

[raw chasm]

Oh

[young nimbus]

dw about it but stay out of this channel go to #hk-help theres spoielrs

[nova frigate]

i cant see how dreamshield helps in this situation, its too short to reach baldur

[drifting cliff]

If you swing your nail it move a little bit

The way to hit the baldur is to get good spit RNG, damage tank the spit and use the knockback move left fast enough to hit the baldur before it closes

It's a lot more intricate than that, but that's the general idea

[nova frigate]

i noticed that yea, so i just got to tank the hits, damn

i see i see. well, ill try it

i got it once, now just a couple tines nore

got it twice and thrice

[raw chasm]

You need 12

[nova frigate]

well 3 times is good in like 6 mins, that means ill only be here for... 24 mins

[raw chasm]

Yep

Oh man that's how long it took you to like beat the game on your normal save

[nova frigate]

is it reasonable to go to CP and go from there

[raw chasm]

How does itemless crystal peak help you

[nova frigate]

nah it took me longer, i try to always 112% it but i havent tried to just beat it, i should try it ig

[raw chasm]

You can't really get anywhere

[nova frigate]

idk just asking if its reasonable to even try

[raw chasm]

You could go there but there's maybe 2 or 3 checks you can get which is only useful for rando

[nova frigate]

so not really, just itemless blue lake, get dreamshield and try baldur...

this already feels like pain

[raw chasm]

Well it's a challenge run for a reason

[dawn pilot]

Hi

[raw chasm]

I bet doing Hornet 2 with only Wraiths and Dash is also gonna be fun

[drifting cliff]

You could have probably grinded 1800 geo to go to resting grounds to get DShield

[dawn pilot]

Hi

[raw chasm]

Dreamshield doesn't need lantern iirc

[drifting cliff]

Going to Peaks does though

[nova frigate]

i mean grinding 1800 geo is easy, but doing baldur without VS is hardd

[dawn pilot]

What do u guys think about Broken Vessel?

[drifting cliff]

Grinding geo is certainly still a lot easier than iblss

[nova frigate]

solid guy, quite easy

[nova frigate]

definately

anyways, i will try and do the last 3 advancements i have. so hollow knight and hunter, here we go, brb got to take 30 mins for the hk ending

[warm shard]

hi there

i did not invent ibaldur :3

[dense vault]

ibalding

[drifting cliff]

You balding

[warm shard]

i was just the first to get a kill for a while

i think rose made the shade strat? idk

[nova frigate]

damn so... ibaldur is quite hard

[dawn pilot]

Is Nioutt still banned?

[native panther]

Probably

[paper vapor]

ibaldur is bad

[drifting cliff]

who

I think I took longer for Markoth, but Oblobbles was the most infuriating

[hidden dragon]

Yes, I hated Oblobbles too.

I hate Random Garbage Go enemies.
