Wait r u muslim
It's a cool charm
I am now back from not talking
hai
hi
Ello
U failed me
actully it's in howling cliffs
I'm using that and Lifeblood heart or I can use Soul catcher with it I'm pretty sure
Hola 😭
Bruh
I am quite the impressive Failure
Then how tf do I have it
Don't cry 😿
i wont
that is insane bro
just use shaman stone bro
Shaman stone goated
I haven't gotten it yet bro
My fav charm is hive blood tho
It's like my 3rd day playing
😬 I would get it as soon as possible
bro spent his whole life in white palace
Lol
Wait the charm lady in crossroads sells it right?
yes
Ye-yeah
when i was in my 3rd day playing i did shade skip
220
I'm just gonna farm moss knights in greenpath for geo rn
/shamanstone
nah
What do I do for geo then?
u can farm these big dudes in crossroad
bench get up kill him and then get down and bench again
Wait which ones?
the stag bench get up in the false knight way to his arena
there is a one there
just keep farming him he gives 45 each kill
Oh so I use the charm for more vengeful spirit DMG?
He respawns?
Didn't know
yes and it can also double hit enemies
he does when u bench
i dont deal any damage in p1 and get bounced back a bit when i try and hit the vengefly king how do i fix this
just use steady body
no i genuinely dont deal any damage
wait what
might be because of mods idk
it's obviously bcz of mods
i have none enabled tho

Nine Sols is so peak ngl
I love that game so much, am like 3 hours in, but it's lovely
I think I'm enjoying this more than HK
I just started hk today
Pog
Should I get mods or nah?
I mean, you can play however you want, I wouldn't add mods personally when playing for the first time
But you could add like some cool skin to the Knight if you want a different look or something
Yeah that would be nice
What’s the best mod for macOS
Ummm honestly no clue, you would have to search on the internet probably, I don't really got much knowledge about MacOS or modding in general
Wouldn't go that far
Is English your second language?
Yeah
I would
I would agree with them that HP bars may not be the most aesthetically pleasing, but certainly not cheating
Nah your definitely cheating @tawny spear
Unless it spoils you that a boss has a second phase or something, that would suck
The mod i use doesnt match the bar ticks with phases
hello i'm back once again what did i miss
U gettin slimed tn watch yo back
What did I just... pardon..?
Yall use keyboard/controller or ?
i come back and see this 😭
Controller
controller def
Keyboard
Keyboard
I tried connecting my controller to my thing but 😂
Am masochist or something perhaps
I deadass cant playwithout some form of controller
We are in the same boat
Controllers are literally free btw
Considering I did every boss radiant with keyboard, I couldnt ever use one
I’m using a MacBook and I’m trying to connect the Xbox controller but it ain’t work so
Once when my friend was getting into Hollow Knight, another friend that already played HK told him "I don't understand how anyone could do such a thing to themselves and play this game on keyboard", and there I was quietly in the corner
what 😭
Use a cord then go into yo settings and turn the audio controlling off so it doesnt automatically go through ur controller unless thats what u want
No
Js grab one nd walk out
Yeah, its not that hard, just rearrange your controls and your golden
true though
Well I am playing on base controls lol
Huh? I mean like my controller works in the steam menu and stuff but when I open hollow knight and try to move around in the game menu or in game it don’t work
Go back to your corner...
But I did beat like P5 and PoP so I think playing on keyboard isn't anything too bad
Use a cord
Well played
Connect it straight to ur laptop thats what worked for me atleast
I cant do it without changing mine, though I did it regardless, still
I did bro but it ain’t working
Idrk how to help u cuz i use a windows laptop nd a Playstation controller

Ehhh I think I might've just been used to these controls from Celeste, since it also mostly uses like Arrow keys, Z, X and C
X-Box is a better controller btw
Theres multiplayer mods right
Mid tier ragebait
Well if your coming into the game from Celeste then it makes sense
Idrc about controller quality
I like my Controller from Aliexpress lol, I think it's Xbox style?
Xbox also got better arrangement of buttons I think
Opinion based
And better quality so like
Exactly
It is opinion, but on PS controller your joysticks are too close to each other
As long as the buttons work iccl tbh
Hey guys.
So less range of motion on other stuff
Pov: If P5 counted
Good Job
Those who dough
i get 30 fps on lowest settings and 800x600. am i cooked
Maybe you got frame rate capped or something?
Whats that one multiplayer mod that ppl use called
Last I checked 113% isnt real, so good job all skill, trust
no and not even vsync
i get 70 at first but then 30 then crashes
Are you using your phone to play this or something?
after like 30 minutes
i am an owl
Not a viable owl
guh? says the cat
Weird
Trust trust I did uhhh the land of storms
*Person
Your PC shouldn't be this weak at all
*cat
do u wanna know my specs
steel mode mantis lords no upgrades expect charms
once a cat always a cat boah >:3
Says the fake owl
My laptop doesnt go over 60 fps on hk tap in
Yeah, but like, I think even i5 5th gen with 16GB of RAM would run HK fine, it not a demanding game
says the middle
Erm.. OneShot is peak
i5 sec gen is 10x better than my cpu
So Islimbuscompany
Ohhh aight
Then I think I might see the reason why u lagging
It absolutely is, I love that game
silksong❌ evil song✅
One of the few games on Steam where I got all achievements
Sealed Vessel mixed with Hornet
my specs are. CPU: Intel Celeron N4020
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 600
RAM: 4 GB
Storage: HDD
Cause it was just so good, such a great story smh my head
Hmmm I think you might need an upgrade
Playing on my switch is such a horrid experience without little grimm skin
EXACTLY, also, Niko is adorable
You could probably get a better PC for like 50$
Is there a way to get a different sword or whatever
im brkoe
Is she tho
I got 16gb of ram
Yeah I love Niko, very good protag
broke*
I felt genuinlly sad at the end of my first playthrough
Umm sadly no
Th is oneshot even about
oki
Overhyped game
When I found Solstice I was absolutely pumped
Choice at the end was very hard indeed doe, and emotional
Underhyped, more people need to know about this game
Honestly not overhyped, even underhyped I'd say
Everyone stay talkin bout it but never even rlly talks about y its good
Not even mods?
So true
You can get even guns with mods if you want
Oh yeah
well give me ur pc
Wipes booger on you
Cause, its a mix of a puzzle game and emtional lore of a falling apart world that our little Niko was sent to fix, and knows nothing about
Erm actually in Silksong there is a weapon called the Rosary Cannon
@rose harness do i get hollowpoint mod nd pay the radiance a lil visit
Hehe. HollowPoint go brr
Because it's just an amazing story, and kinda has that Doki Doki-esque creepy feel to it sometimes
And decent puzzles
Omg another person whose obsessed with owls!!
WHATS YOUR FAVORITE OWL
New game name HollowEagle: american edition
It's kinda like Undertale, but without the annoying part (fighting)
So how do y’all get interested in Hk
The blue one
Cause fighting in Undertale is like, mostly boring and way too easy, so kinda detracts from the game
Wdym?
Mid game
Mid ragebait
There are only like 4 good fights in Undertale, only 2 of those being difficult
Undertale so mid tap in
Was randomly bored one day so installed it from game pass on xbox
Steam Sale
Da barn owl, ik it's common but it still cool
Even worse rage bait
Maybe not mid but not as good as ppl hype it up to be
how is undertale sans boss fight not fun or literally every boss fight
Ofc, its the BEST owl
God forbid I have an opinion
That I agree with
Real
He isn't wrong
its like hollow knight. u hate the weaker enemies but like the higher ends
I think Undertale is butt but Deltarune is peak
I only started playing it because I saw someone else playing it, they were in the Hall Of Gods.
Idk, just wanted to get there I guess
As I said, there're like 4-5 good fights, and only 2 of them being like actually difficult (Undyne and Sans)
I never even died in any fights aside from these 2
Undyne is so peak
Same gameplay besides lore nd characters
goo goo ga ga
I forced myself to Finish undertale, basically had "Okay Mega, This game is good, internet Says it's good, so It must be. It'll get good eventually." It never did
Undertale the sequel
but undertale overall has fun gameplay against bosses
You do not know ball, 0/10 ragebait
Have yall played stardew valley
Blah blah
Deltarune is just a more polished undertale, with way more mechanics and better graphics
"Ball" nd its js delatrune 💔✌️
The fighting is a lot better than pooptale. Before I played it I thought it was gonna just be identical but it's not
Have any of yall played outer wilds?
Nope, no offense but it looks boring.
Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy fights such as Omega Flowey, even Asriel, and Mettaton EX, aswell as Sans and Undyne, but the others were kind of a snoozefest imo
I have a bit, cause my brother said it's the best game
well i recommend u getting mods in undertale
itll be amazing
Perhaps I should
Yeah I mean it’s an rpg
yea mods are really good
Though some look kinda bonkers, like that one where it's Sans, Papyrus and Chara fight at the same time and there's like 1 inch of the screen without some projectile spam
@rose harness how long u think a hollowpoint prog would take
Ooo Bad Time Trio, very fun
3-5 business days?
Anybody play ETG?
I like this niche little game called Hollow Knight a lot but doubt you guys would have heard of it 😼
im pretty sure there are ones that makes the game more fun like harder and more complex fights on all of monsters
Oo that sounds cool
nah seems fun tho
@mossy lintel yo I got to god tamer a lil after u hopped off js to find out its not the last boss I needed for pantheon 3
Killed it first try
Cant say ive ever heard of it
and there custom monsters from another mods u can get
Never heard of it, sounds awesome tho
Ah. Well, did you make it to grimm?
I killed him like 2 weeks ago
Poggers
its not 100% but its probably out there
O h .
I just started hollow knight any tips?
Hmm.. sounds trash and boring and not fun at all, def not playing rn
Still haven't gotten to nkg yet tho im lwk procrastinating the flames
I do have to say though, I think Deltarune gameplay is infinitely better than Undertale (though there has yet to be a peak that has reached the height of Sans)
if i still had undertale ill get a mod where i can fight goku orr sm
Roaring Knight was very cool doe
Not playing whatsoever
Umm remember to utilize abilities you get?
Funny cuz iirc for some reason you don't actually need to beat that one even tho it's in the pantheon
Yeah I think you don't
The icon looked similar till I checked again
Yo im deadass finna js do a bossrush with hollowpoint
What do you think if I kill Hollow Knight and lock the disease inside me?
Which ones are you missing?
Watchu expect to happen
Only 1 but idk what it is
Imma check a video rq
What does the icon look like?
I mean is this a good ending?
Yo gang
I dont have my switch on me rn cuz im on the toilet
Every ending ends with either u getting sealed or dying lmao
N o
Umm not really?
Oneshot mentioned rah
I mean, for the city, but not really... The only really "good" ending is the p5 ending with the delicate flower...
OneShot is so very peak
Dream no more knight dies nd only the void part of his survives
Base ending ur sealed
what if there was a silksong dlc where like in an alt universe the infection of hallownest infected pharloom and stuffs
Sealed siblings ur sealed but with hornet
Well, only the shell is destroyed, but still lives on as the God of the Void
just beat the game for a second time 🥹
Iirc
Wodzionka wodzionka the best of śląsk region soups.
U right but in the game u play as knight not the shade
U dont play as the shade till the last part of the radiance fight
Wodzionka when my wifey makes it
What about the 4th and 5th endings?
Spoiler
<@&283547423706447872> ERRADICATE THIS USER
😭
What are they
I didnt rlly look into alot of the endings lol
Well they'd be spoilers for you probably since they after pantheons
Idrc about spoilers atp
P5 is where you become the lord of shades and destroy godhome, and the 5th ending is the mushroom ending where you beat the game and get a sub cutscene
@mossy lintel the boss i need is galien btw
No no, 5th ending is P5 with delicate flower I think, no?
No, that's not what I meant... That "5th ending" was the secret one, I was talking about the delicate flower + defeating pantheon 5.
Doesn't knights shell still break in the 4th ending and ending 5 is just a subcutscene I think
The Herald is just like addition to ending I think?
Oh THAT ending, that makes more sense, I was going after achievments wise
He's in deepnest, I can try and pinpoint his location if you need me too (if you don't have the pins)
Yea, its shell still breaks but now its a super big shade and such
You deadass?
But the Shell is just a container anyways, the character doesn't really change whether in that Shell or not
you don’t destroy godhome
Deepnest of all places????
Yup... It sucks.
But you DO kill the godseeker, and without their dream godhome is G O N E
joker
Say on dead cheeks its in deepnest
that’s still not true
But its not wrong either
dreams persist after death
thats demonstratably not the case, godseeker mode follows p5
It very much is
I forgot about that part, well played
am i goated lads or am i goated lads
Tf was they feeding hk/pv
... Uhh, on dead cheeks he's in deepnest...?
Yo what?
cocaine
yea
Dawg...
Im not trynna go back
God Has Abandoned Us
Well since I already beat the game twice and i needa reprogress on my laptop cuz I js got steam Im lwk finna js get a infinite soul mod and hollowpoint @mossy lintel
Whatever happens happens
Should I practice nkg until I can do him radiant for p5
Well, if you gotta, then do it.
does skong have a physical on switch 1?
Im js doing it cuz itd be way faster lol
my game glitched and i couldnt max out my nail so i got debug and accidentaly gave myself every charm
bes fren
Uhhhh I would say doing Ascended consistently is good enough but if you wanna, yeah
guys
Hi
That really isn't needed, but it works.
At most practice him ascended, attuned works too.
I just wanna beat the game and go to godhome
blessing and a curse
no rushing
assuming this is 1st play
Get a mod to fight 5 of him at once and do it on radiant then ur ready
What's the best enemy in hollow knight?
Though it’s more important to be able to do PV ascended very consistently, as it leads into absrad whereas NKG leads into bench
Ive beaten it 2 times on my switch
Dawg that's too much 💀
Main I’m stuck on tha first boss it my first play tho
Is it tho
i can beat pv with like a few hits
False champion?
have you done radiant absrad
don't rush, you need to kill just about every boss in the game before being able to do godhome anyways
Yop false knight
false knight*
He annoyin
U can skip it lol
So like, 3-5? Should suffice, what health do you usually have by the end?
5, 5 NKG's?
Nahhhh, yeah I think that's... That's kinda a lot...
Hello!
i dont even know how to
failed champion or false knight
Oh wait what
Thats the point of hollowpoint nd infinite soul
Ive killed almost every boss on my switch already
have you done abs rad
No
Im lwk finna js light up radiance
Silksong hollowpoint mod when
Id deadass rebuy it on steam if someone makes one
On the toilet rn but hollowpoint is on lumafly right @mossy lintel
Man, I wish The Radiance and THK were in godhome, just add them where Abs Rad and Pure Vessel are, and make them flip a lever to fight their stronger counterparts.
No one needed to know that your in the restroom...
Right.
Anyway its in lumafly right
I honestly don't know this one... You might have to go in modding discussion and ask them, sorry.
Mane fuh
U good
Welp, I'ma head out now. see y'all!
Cya
Hello chat
Hello
Hi
Thank you
Got my first HK ending! Yippee (don’t mind the bug in the corner)
Nooo you skipped the first ending 😔
I didn’t realize I couldn’t get them after getting void hart and I didn’t know that it would only put me before HK after beating it
YOU DIDNT DO IT INTENTIONALLY?!?!?!
It’s alr, you’ll just have to get it on your inevitable second playthrough
No
You'll get it alongside the Speedrun Achievments then 
I wonder what ending I'll end up getting (i literally have no idea)
My charms are really good imo
Quick focus, quick slash, grubberfly elegy, and spore shroom
Very fast
S-speed running achievement?
There's two, yeah
Excuse me- but what the? I can barely beat the game in 2 days
I'm glad for platinum hk on playstation I don't have to do speedrunning achievements
I would literally die if I had to do that
Do I have to do pantheons for achievements for 100% game completion on Xbox?
And Grimm+NKG
No idea i play on ps
Anyone have any charm build suggestions? I wanna try someone’s charm build
I’m currently fighting NKG wish me luck please
I’m praying
I gotchu
Kk
For the Pure Completion achievment yes
I'd know, I play excuslie on Xbox
… I’m gonna cry
Yes, xbox shares achievements with all other systems aside from PS
Just kill me already
Fuck PlayStation's "Heart of Hallownest" achievment, it looks so fucking cool and I can't have it 🥀
I forgot what boss i used this on prob traitor lord
Why can't Xbox Rip off Platinum Trophies, that'd be so cool
💩
anyone know a server that has the SLUT tag?

I like using Strength, Quick Slash, Heart, NMG, Steady Body
i can't believe this
What’s that first charm?
What is that again?
the society bruh
Sharp Shadow
The Platinum for HK in Playstation
its necessary
|| ||
It's sharp shadow
So what’s cool about that exactly
The Image
I guess lol
it helps with PV
No not that
Where can I acquire?
Deepnest I think?
Also Sharp Shadow kinda overrated
In deepnest
… yeah I’d rather die then go back
Bottom 5 charms in the game tbh
It's easy tho
We ball tho
But has some uses
I’m gonna go get it
Ok so my build was for a specific boss
We ball
Okay it is nowhere NEAR that bad
What boss?
Ion get why we hating on a charm
Traitor lord, that's what my build was for
What even is worse? Maybe like Kingsoul and Glowing Womb
Is grubberflys elegy a good charm?
I just tanked that shii
Heavy Blow, Dream Shield
Don't listen, use whatever charms your heart desires
Spore Shroom
Deep Focus
Good for doing bosses on Radiant, generally not the greatest tho
I liked grubberfly bc it gave more damage and range when I couldn’t get in reach with nail
I'd rather spend slots on Deep Focus over Sharp Shadow
Hell no
Atleast Deep Focus has a use
That's fair, I haven't used it cause I'm never at full health
Always taking hits
Heavy Blow and Dreamshield I guess are worse, Grimmchild as well, but nothing else is worse than Sharp Shadow
SHAW
Me neither, that’s my only caveat
Lol
I could see it helping on some fights such as Absrad where you got some spaces to heal, and pretty limited soul
I tank every hit, that’s why I have quick slash, and quick focus easy soul, easy heal
While Sharp Shadow basically never gives you any worth
Yeahh i never put on heal charms I mostly go for spell builds and maybe a nail one if I feel like I'm actually good at gaming only to be humbled
Grubsong has a permanent spot in my heart though
It’s an… okay charm at a giant cost
Pfft, you use spells?
A 2 notch at best imo
Same here bro, same here
Same as Sharp Shadow
I mean, the cost isn't so giant, but it's not an okay charm, so like

Sharp Shadow would be better if it reduced recharge for shade dash
Oh hi twin
Or just did more damage, that works too
Hi twin
Or just like gave you opportunities to maybe like use Spells/Nail slashes during your shade dash
Would be cool
Ehhhh
I used them like once or twice against hornet and failed champ
I think just making it like, 2.5x nail damage or smth would significantly improve the charm
Perhaps, but still pretty bad for a 2 notch charm
They shred health tho if you time it
Eh, not really
I mean 2.5x nail damage every… 1.5 seconds?
Even Soul Catcher
Descending dark my beloved
I still need to get it 😭
Not the Victim Victim 😭
Then get it
While sacrificing a decent bit of soul/damage dealt you could've gotten while keeping on hitting the boss (unless you gotta dash through it regardless)
The crystal hunters won't let me
You do know how much 2.5x nail damage is
They shoot the spinning platforms
2 and a half hits
Shush why do you enjoy arguing gameplay stuff so much. It sounds so boring
So it's crystal on both sides
It’s fun!!!
You know what hornet would say
anyone ever had a problem with HK that after like 5 mins of playing your computer just freezes? Ive completed silksong and have never had a problem with performance

...don't twin
52 damage, which is more than Shade Soul with Shaman Stone
Too late
..
2.5x damage is like miniscule compared to what you'd deal in that time with like Strength+Quick slash which you probably have on anyways (I assume strength wouldn't boost the Sharp Shadow damage)
For no soul
Two can play this game
Hmm that does sound good
Okay but those charms are incredibly overpowered anyways
...
Like sharp shadow isn’t the issue there, strength is
But Shade Soul with Shaman's usually double hits, so like
It's honestly tiring let ppl use what they wanna use 😔
I defeated NKG
Good job ^^
I think the “no soul” thing here still matters tho
I'd not say that, because it's not really affecting anyone
We just enjoy arguing about these things, we not saying someone can't use these
I mean I don’t personally take issue with anyone using Sharp Shadow
That is true
I’d rather kms then do that lol
But I can also admit that it’s an underwhelming charm that deserves a buff
True
I don't like grubsong, I have to take damage to get soul, I don't wanna risk my life for heals just to risk more of my life...but in the words of hornet...I just need to 
I like it, only cause it’s kinda just filler
Unless you’re using nail arts, if you have a slot left over you might as well
I love Grubsong
It's so good
One of the better 1 notch charms tbh
One word "compass"
Grubsong helps me sm because I'm lowk dumb asf and get hit by things that shouldn't hit me
Can make absolutely bonker tank builds if paired with like Deep Focus (though kinda loses viability on double damage bosses)
Best 1 notch charm
Easy heals
The only good ones (for combat) are that, NMG, and like sometimes Dream Wielder
Oh and Steady Body I guess
Steady Body
Top5 best charm in the game btw
Eh
hi guys
I mean I get it but it kinda relies on the other two OP charms
Hi
Mostly when used with Quick Slash does it shine, but it does shine so much
Any1 here play on NS?
Like I don’t see a world where Steady Body is THAT good without QS and Strength being so overtuned
Ehh using multiple charm combos pretty cool
Maybe not THAT good, but would still be worth having on some more precise fights imo where it allows you to squeeze a couple hits in when you would've taken damage if you took the KB
That is true
Long nail, fury of the fallen, and compass peak charm combo, one shots everything
@light tartan I have sharp shadow, boutta fight HK to see about this build
I Started skill song today 🗿
(PV usually, so good on that one sword from the ground attack)
Ok 😭
Again it's not my main build so
...bro is gonna die
What is your main then?
So fast
I'm not home and don't remember
I think it would be so easy to set Strength to 25% damage increase and extend it to working with Nail Arts
Lemme try and remember
Ok
Lowk I dont like using nail arts. Is that just me?
I am in soul sanctum rn (have other bosses lined up but doing the soul master). I have mantis and mothwing, how far into the game am I? Blind play
Not at all
What’s that
Gruberflys elegy is a tloz reference prove me wrong
Not far. I recommend staying out of the channel cause of spoilers tho :3
I mean, I think it'd be better if the scaling was a lot different, cause currently it feels kinda useless with the first couple nail upgrades, and way too OP on the final ones
Try and fight Grimm/nkg
It really does, but that feels like such a hard thing to fix
alr last thing are rancid eggs only used by jiji?
Like 10% maybe?
alr tyall
Probably a third of the way through if you know what you’re doing but I assume you don’t
Yes
So yeah probably 15% or so
Wait you have cdash?
yh
I love these little guys
I got cdash before soul master
Get them to evolve as soon as possible
Did you get ||grubberglys elegy||?
I have all them
Oh god...don't traumatize the man
I don't either
Yeah
Go out > Bench > Come back
Go bench and then come back
Why?
uhhh
Help them evolve
No DONT DO IT
Evolve?
yes do it
Yes
Okay
What you think "Grubberfly" mean
They grow
Go get them to evolve
Fair. Going there now
How many have you collected?
He said all of them
Ah.
...he's so traumatized
Who?
This is an estimate
He will be, if he doesn't know what's gonna happen
….. FAT BASTARD ATE THEM
They literally just begin evolving, why yall this scared
WAIT
That's how grub evolves, yes
I don’t have unbreakable versions yet
If I don't use stalwart I use longnail
Oh
Broke as shit
Then you can substitute for quick slash
he's sacrificing himself to let the others evolve
That's what'd I'd do
He still ate them
They're still alive
That's how they evolve, what else he gun do
So they can evolve
Do I ever get to see them evolve?
Nope
No
Damn
No
But gruberflys elegy is what they look like after evolving
living cocoon
alrightttt whos sliding me silksong
I need to make a rebalance mod for this fucking game istg
I need a health bar mod
I cannot STAND the balance this game has it’s so ass
Would
The game’s balance is ass it hurts me so much 💔
it's very skill-based
wym
Agreed
the only ''hard'' thing bout hk is uh the pantheons
I think Silksong made the Glowing Womb counterpart much better than HK
That’s not what balance means
Depends
what are u even struggling on
I mean that we live in a world where Quick Slash and Dream Shield are the same notch cost
Again, not what balance means
She means how some charms are busted and some are useless
the only thing that I can think to "balance" in the game is charms yeah
She, but yes thanks
I think spells have a really weird progression compared to nail but yeah
oh yea
That is also true, Spells absolutely butcher everything in the base game
Sort of
They’re OP early game, just eh right before you get their upgrades, OP again when you do, then like… solid options in the late game
Yes
They really fluctuate
Sorry, I assumed someone who has the same drive as me to argue about funny bug game balance has to be a dude lol, didn't mean to offend you by misgendering
Hello chat
Considering how early you get the upgrades? Absolutely busted
What am I gonna do guys? Fight the sun?
ah yes lemme just spend FOUR charm notches to close most healing windows
You can just keep spamming DDark and kill half the bosses in base game
You don’t get the upgrades that early…?
Yes... Jk
Well okay yeah you can get Shade Soul and DDark early but Abyss Shriek is solidly in the midgame
You can
I mean, I guess maybe not in first playthrough, but if you know what you're doing? Walking out of peaks you basically got 2 upgraded spells
deep focus making you heal slower is a huge cripple by itself, but you also have to allocate charm notches to even have that effect
Yeah, considering you have to go get brand and then go to abyss
I mean you’d have to wait to go back to City for the other but yeah
I dunno, it may be a skill issue, but I found Shriek mostly viable on Lategame bosses anyways, so doesn't matter that much
a sidegrade with an additional high cost is a downgrade
- double healing
- slower healing, thus can no longer heal against some bosses and such
- FOUR NOTCHES
Well, but that's like 5 minutes in City since you just go to Sly, Stag, and you're basically there
Yeah true
Guys I wanna make a game inspired by hollow knight, do you think team cherry would let me do references to hollow knight?
they should make sum like charm synergy
Still, I think Spells are poorly done in terms of balance, though that may just be because of Shaman Stone lmao
silksong's equivalent to deep focus is really fucking good
References and homages are legal. Look up what is defined as a transformative work.
Bet
since rather than healing 3 masks, you heal TWO, THEN TWO MORE
meaning even if you get interrupted half way through
you still got partially healed
How do you even fix Strength, man
deep focus puts all your eggs in one basket
That is true, though most people don't even notice the strength of spells on first playthrough since they stockpile on soul to heal
the basket has a large hole in it
Make it scale differently based on Nail level?
I sure didn't lol
Fragile charms are such a huge issue in terms of balance like what do you even do there
technically it does since it's a % increase
And I hear most people don't
strength deters you from using it by being fragile
It’s hard to make them worth it when fragile but not OP when unbreakable
Honestly guys. I don’t see why people hate primal aspids. They’re not bad
but if you don't think you're gonna die, then it's just a great upgrade
Yeah that what I mean, feels useless early-game but OP late-game
yeah
anyway I gotta have a shower
Honestly doing 50% at base nail down to 25% for pure would be neat
mmmm true, like instead it could be an additive upgrade
though, additive would probably make it
But then it'd feel really weak on max nail or really strong on weak nail
I think this works
it'd need to scale somehow
50% increase is already not that good on Nail 0 so I think it works
I hate coliseum of fools
I mean, it rounds up to 8 doesn't it?
I’m on the last trial
Yeah, that'd probs be best
Okay it’s good and worth it to equip, but it’s not nuts
that brings it to a one hit kill, but like
Utilize spells and Nail arts and it's fine
oh no, a tiktik!!!!! I'm so scared lemme just equip my fucking 3-notch charm
Honestly with spells I think making all of them 25% increase for Shaman would work
But you die you gotta repair it, so high risk high reward
in a way it's kinda good that it's not very useful super early on
Yeah it can’t be too good early on cause early charms mostly aren’t super good
because that's when a new player would likely use it, break it, and maybe even burn money repairing it over and over
I would like it to be, since Heart is absolutely busted early-game, and is less charms
heart is nice early on
Unless they nerfed heart, but I think it's fine as-is even late-game
+2 masks for 2 notches
Guys I didn't know I was supposed to use the wayward compass Im 10 hours in I haven't used it at all
Imo one of the best charms for Steel Soul atleast
Like I think 25% increase for all spells with Shaman Stone just straight up fixes the charm
I like going for strength at that point but yeah I guess
as previously stated, with old nail it doesn't change that much
but heart brings you up to 7 masks right away
so guess you could use heart, then switch to strength once you've got a nail upgrade or two
anyhoo, I gotta go have a shower lol
later
Cya
Buy
Oh also I kinda think Focus needs a buff
Like I kinda wish that got a later game upgrade
Void Heart giving a Focus buff would have been neat 
yo wsp yall
Howdy howdy
Would be cool if it was kinda like some of the Silksong heals where you get a short-time ability/buff after using it
Yeah, and to be fair idk how else you would buff Focus
Making it 2 masks instead of one is an… awful idea
You could make it take less time but I think that would be bad
i actually slept last night
Yup
You get used to the timings already, so yeah, and some heal windows could be weird with a faster focus
but only for 5 hours
Not bad
it's something atleast
A start.
ref i don’t wanna play anymore
Set a consistent wake time and then consistent bedtimes, and things will just happen eventually.
well i'm kind of in a rough state right now so i never really could sleep.
Why everyone suddenly playing this game on mobile?
What happened?
I'm trying to learn how to fall asleep on command, I will get back to you if I get a breakthrough. Promising results with blindfolding myself and focusing on wherever the most comfortable part of my body is.
i do NOT have a console or pc
uh alright
thats why
F
Not even like, a laptop?
no
That’s rough, buddy
i respect mobile gamers though
But still, now I see everyone playing on mobile
i did allat without shadow dash or smth
They either got insane willpower or are masochists tbh
i can send a vid of me fighting the hollow knight
I mean I think buffing focus would be really hard, I guess just buffing its charms (except Quick Focus, that one is pretty chill) would be best
i still respect them cuz it's really fucking hard to play on mobile in general
Nice
idk if wanna sleep i got remined of my thing and some other stuffs been comeing up
That is true
yeah ik
Bro I kinda forgot how fucking dogshit Spore Shroom is ngl
that shit is ass
But also less enjoyable overall (atleast for me), playing a game on mobile kinda ruins my enjoyment of the game since everything tends to be so clanky
say
do you have a
Isn't it pretty aight?
@hexed kayak
I don’t… think so…?
26 damage total if all hit
the video is sending
It is some free damage atleast, and only 1 notch, so probs better than a lot of charms
i eas one hit away from beating radiant abs rad vro
41 with Dcrest
I’m really not sure about that
"Does anyone have a mobile version?
anyone play on a htbox/leverless controller? recently got one for fighting games, and curious if anyone has good key bind suggestions
damn though luck but keep trying
You just can’t have multiple clouds at a time and honestly it should have been a charm that scaled to Nail damage
hello
do you have e sign?
at least im more consistent than before
that's something good atleast
man why do the days pass so fast fr
I could perhaps try Quick Focus + Spore Shroom + DCrest with uh… I dunno I guess Quick Slash and Strength at some point, maybe it isn’t that bad
"What do you mean?" ✅
what is with the check mark is still a mistery today
is this a reasonable amount of rosaries to have
I'm broker
That is true
But still better than something like Glowing Womb, Dreamshield, Grimmchild or Sharp Shadow (imo)
Though again, main issue is that it should just scale to Nail damage
how is that even possible
Orrr hear me out, what if it scaled off the amount of spells you have?
i have -2131094489238529299904829085092
I might need to change my tier list
So each spell/upgrade would upgrade it a little
im gonna tweak
i whould like to buy a map with dust
humming intensifies
so how much for a map
I should make a document for how I would change certain charms
Defender's Crest: Delete
Or something
i made something like that but it got lost in my hell spot of files
the hollow knight is going to make me tweak tf out (video is there btw)
Unless Defender's Crest also did the stinky cloud at your nail/spell locations, that could make it a bit better
wow sherlock homes i still can't see it can you send dora the explora too help us find the video
yeah
😭
am i good for mobile tho
Defender’s Crest is the funniest thing ever
pretty good for a mobile player since i do respect yall
It’s an okay charm by itself, kinda
attempt number 2 is about to be recorded
Synergizes well with Spore Shroom
Never worth putting on, since if you forget to take it off and go to Lemm, you gotta go back there again ;c
And its other synergies suck ASS
mobile player in the wild cought in 4k
Actively makes Glowing Womb and Flukenest awful
(I have severe dementia)
FINALLY
nice
Not that GW wasn’t alr but it’s even worse
Probs not in 4k, I doubt any phone has a 4k screen resolution
meh that prob will change soon 💔
Silksong spoiler ;c
Yeah even if you put a spoiler over it, that’s not allowed
The end
Doubt it, phones do not need 4k, unless some huge foldables
my screen recording is too large
PPI is good enough on phones as is, you don't really see the difference on such small screens
but long story short
CHECK OUT OUR NEW AND IMPROVED 4k RESULOTION 5 SCREEN PHONE IT ONLY COSTS A SMALL PRICE OF 100000 dollars BUY NOW UNDER THIS LINK type shit 😭
i got to the stabbing himself part
And also, even 4k monitors are insanely expensive, imagine if they had to shrink that technology to phone size, that'd cost a lot of money
I’ll have to get started on my rebalance doc later
Kinda
i mean it's eh for me
Hollow Knight: American edition
Well let's not talk Silksong here since spoilers not allowed
i didn't really spoiler anything
i just said i find the final boss meh
Yeah yeah, I am not saying you spoiled anything, it's just if we kept the conversation going for longer it'd probs turn into spoilers
yeah
dude my game crashed before i could beat ||grandmother silk||
<@&283547423706447872>
Who called the po lice?
i forgot to spoiler it 
Still not allowed lmfao
whargft
Be careful, snitches be everywhere
Oh damn I’ll die I guess
meh
well fuck looks like the mantis did it already
we all know the mantis got left behind 😔
Oh wow this server has a cloth emoji
goes hard, even if she looks weird with a mouth
atleast it gives cloth some sort of life
tbh W cloth in the chat for saveing our ass from that mantis
and type Ls for the mantis for killing cloth
What was it
Silksong spoilers
uhm mam this shit aint a dateing sever
Because spoilers… spoil people?
Still
