Surely

[grim zephyr]

I think this is the main route to Mantis Village?

[young otter]

OH YES

[grim zephyr]

Oh wait is this nearby to a lever

[young otter]

[grim zephyr]

That hole does remind me of something but I cannot remember what

Hollow Guessr really got yall into a pickle now, huh?

Just when I thought Radiant had nun' in store. Need a clue?

[brave blaze]

YOO I BEAT THE SOUL MASTER

[young otter]

[grim zephyr]

I bet it'd be more obvious with a bigger image lmao

[young otter]

feels too structured

[grim zephyr]

Doesn't look like it

[young otter]

yeah the ground is too clean

[tame canyon]

I tried getting pale ore in crystal peak early but couldn't do it

[grim zephyr]

Yeah this is like in the far left of the first room with Mantis enemies

[young otter]

that's what I'm thinking

[wide plume]

Give up?

[young otter]

like the "wanderers seeking death, welcome" thing on the far right

[vernal glacier]

Pretty sure it’s the second…?

[grim zephyr]

Not yet

[tame canyon]

Made some progress

[young otter]

yeah I got nothing personally

[tame canyon]

I couldn't find a enemy to hit off of

[vernal glacier]

The top one

Christ

[young otter]

...

[grim zephyr]

Yeah I have no thoughts either

[young otter]

is it in crystal peak?

[wide plume]

Give up?

[grim zephyr]

That hole is in fact in my head but I forgot where it is

[young otter]

crystal peak, final answer

WDYM NO!?

impossible

[tame canyon]

What are you guessing at?

[vernal glacier]

Fungal core…?

Smth like that?

[young otter]

[young otter]

gruzzer room?

[storm gull]

Grub father?

[vernal glacier]

Bro it ain’t even fun if you just don’t let us know anything lmfao

[crude jacinth]

ima use shaman stone to see if it makes a difference

[young otter]

as in, after infected crossroads

[grim zephyr]

He's surely making radiant difficulty be RADIANT!!

[storm gull]

damn

[young otter]

the room with the two uninfected gruzzers I mean

[vernal glacier]

No?

[young otter]

leading to mawlek

hmm... below cornifer

[grim zephyr]

But is that Crossroads at least

[vernal glacier]

That would mean ascended difficulty but if we get any wrong we lose

[grim zephyr]

There are other areas similar to Crossroads room so

[wide plume]

20 seconds

[grim zephyr]

Is it really not Vengefly King

[young otter]

below cornifer with falling spikes in crossroads

[storm gull]

is it not grub father room

[wide plume]

Deepnest

[young otter]

not deepnest

[wide plume]

10 seconds

[storm gull]

[grim zephyr]

In the room before Distant Village?

[wide plume]

And That's time Up. Look REAL Close to the Image's Bottom Middle

I'm goated of a host like that

[grim zephyr]

Dude I can already think Pharloom guesser will be funny as hell

[young otter]

subtle but enough to make the guess

"what's this room"

fly corpse hanging from ceiling

[wide plume]

Alright so Let's do a recount
Awesome won like, 1 round. all others were tie

[storm gull]

i think the community needs more time to get familiar with it lmao

[wide plume]

iirc

[crude jacinth]

i beat galien and got tram pass

what now

[young otter]

leave deepnest

[grim zephyr]

Let's do another set on ascended

[wide plume]

So I suppose Today @young otter Wins for today

[young otter]

go somewhere else you're done in deepnest

[wide plume]

We alr did 3, I'm done. I got food to eat

[young otter]

at least for now

[grim zephyr]

Alright

[young otter]

yeah I gotta eat my peas lmao

[wide plume]

Awesome is the Number One Holloe Guessr For Today

[grim zephyr]

I might start RadHoG route tomorrow

[young otter]

oh my god you know what I love?

[wide plume]

You like lions or blue?

[young otter]

RAW peas fresh from the garden are so nice

[storm gull]

how many clues do you want

[wide plume]

fr

[young otter]

I don't have any rn but

oh my god they're so good

remove from pod, eat

sometimes mum brings me a bag of peas from the garden

I love it

[compact bolt]

Yay first week of hollow knight

[young otter]

I think radiance being dragged down is a very good sequence

puff of essence at the end, sound, all that

[vernal glacier]

And also the best ending

[compact bolt]

I had 1 hp

[brave flume]

Zote in coliseum is so hard I keep dying

[vernal glacier]

Which is dream no more

[young otter]

ngl, them being dragged down is more satisfying than just bursting out of existence in the godhome ending

[vernal glacier]

And not any other ending.

[wide plume]

It's EtV wym

[storm gull]

yo anyone got tips for p5 its kinda beating my ass

[compact bolt]

Same here I spent 6 days 23 hrs 59 mins on zote and 1 sec on radiance

[young otter]

"poof"

[brave flume]

Same he does so much damage

[young otter]

versus actually being dragged down and swallowed by the darkness

[vernal glacier]

https://tenor.com/view/iron-man-hulk-punching-take-that-gif-20643909

[storm gull]

or just git gud

[vernal glacier]

If you can consistently do each boss Ascended, you will be okay

[young otter]

also shredding the radiance is cool and all but like

[storm gull]

Markoth.......

[young otter]

idk it feels a bit too repetitive and flat, I do sincerely hate to say it

[brave flume]

I wish there was hk discord decorations

[storm gull]

that bastard

[vernal glacier]

Yeah EtV is so much worse

[young otter]

whereas slapping the everloving fuck out of them in dream no more

while they're being pried open

[vernal glacier]

God EtV fucking sucks god damn

[young otter]

that's satisfying as fuck

I think it would help to have more variation in the slashing

in EtV

[wide plume]

But we become god

[young otter]

as it stands it just feels too repetitive by the time you're done

[candid harbor]

I want food

[young otter]

slashes in the same way every time

[vernal glacier]

And just so narratively unsatisfying

[candid harbor]

Can someone feed me?

[young otter]

I mean, it makes sense I guess

you destroy the radiance, utterly

[pulsar dune]

i just beat nkg

[vernal glacier]

This sounds freaky I don’t want any part in this

[young otter]

only if it's like

throwing cookies at you or something

[pulsar dune]

rancid eggs

[young otter]

hmmmyes

[vernal glacier]

Throwing cookies into someone’s mouth sounds mad fun ngl

[wide plume]

What if we sacrifice @vernal glacier And throw it at them

[young otter]

hmm...

[vernal glacier]

Oh that would be cool

[wide plume]

We already sacrificed Mossbag for Silksong, What's one more corpse to the list

[young otter]

LMAO

[pulsar dune]

[vague ether]

Like I ain't even search nothing

[candid harbor]

Can I eat HK?

[shell pine]

[shell pine]

Silkysong or hollowly knight

[candid harbor]

I can literally spit lasers

Don't test me

[shell pine]

And i have a mouth
That i can use
To eat you

[young otter]

breaking news, entirety of hong kong eaten

[hasty garden]

Guys is there a mod that can time you on path of pain

[young otter]

idk

[hasty garden]

I would like that

Because i play once a day

[candid harbor]

You mean you start the game once a day, then play it for 9 hours until you collapse from exhaust, right?

[hasty garden]

I play the game regularly most days, but I also complete the path of pain daily

[candid harbor]

Are you even human?

[hasty garden]

Yes

[oak finch]

Path of pain isn’t even hard

I do it daily too

[hasty garden]

Its really not

My best time is sub six minutes

[oak finch]

That’s great man

[candid harbor]

Give me your secrets

[hasty garden]

I should get an actual speedrun timer

[candid harbor]

I want to finally beat the Path of Pain

[hasty garden]

Im doing it for a YouTube thing

You know those Day blank of blank until blank

[oak finch]

My best time is 3 minutes 28 seconds

It’s decent

[hasty garden]

Im only on the 4th day so im expecting to get much better

After I get real good I might do path of pure vessel

[oak finch]

Noooo don’t kill meeeee

[hasty garden]

Lol

[orchid wasp]

Path of pure vessel actually feels very lore-y

[shell pine]

https://tenor.com/view/sheev-palpatine-emperor-chancellor-kill-him-now-gif-14424446

[hasty garden]

Today I got a worse time then yesterday but I also killed the kingsmoulds hitless so

[oak finch]

But I don’t want to die

[orchid wasp]

The knight protecting the most important memory of its king
Yet never knowing what it is

[hasty garden]

Easiest boss runback in silksong:

[oak finch]

Pure vessel is a great boss fight tho ngl

[hasty garden]

I beat it second try (with practice)

Just a harder hollow knight

[hallow mountain]

brooo hornet ver.2 is so hard

[candid harbor]

Imagine mentioning || silksong || in HK general

[hallow mountain]

😭

[hasty garden]

Dude you can mention ss

[shell pine]

You just cant spoil it

[candid harbor]

Not when some of the unqualified mods are online

[shell pine]

spoils silksong

[oak finch]

I havnt been grinding much

[hasty garden]

How do you get radiance there?
It doesn't let me fight her

[modern scaffold]

Oro mato when

[hasty garden]

Its not a spoiler dude

[candid harbor]

I know that

[oak finch]

You can fight her until you get pantheon 5

[young otter]

you're allowed to acknowledge silksong's existence

[oak finch]

Pantheons

[hasty garden]

I have p5 unlocked but not beaten

[young otter]

you're just not supposed to talk about anything that happens IN the game

[hasty garden]

What im saying

[oak finch]

You gotta beat it bro

[candid harbor]

What happens if I do?

[young otter]

explosions

[hasty garden]

Or do I just gotta make it to her so I can practice

[candid harbor]

I want explosions

[oak finch]

I don’t like silksong ngl

[candid harbor]

I love explosions

[young otter]

lmfao

[oak finch]

I think just make it to her

[candid harbor]

I own explosives
-# (for legal reasons I have to say this is a joke)

[young otter]

encounter boss to unlock in hall of gods

don't have to beat boss, just have to see it

[sullen leaf]

guys guess what

[candid harbor]

What?

[young otter]

when

[sullen leaf]

i beat p4

[hasty garden]

I beat nkg on ascended for practice on p5 but I used a special charm build that I dont know if could use for that entire length from white defender to nkg

[young otter]

nice

[sullen leaf]

i now have 112%

[oak finch]

Imagine if enferno king Grimm was a real boss

[storm gull]

is that minos prime...

[sullen leaf]

which ending should i get to get the achievement

[candid harbor]

It will be once I learn how to mod

[hasty garden]

I have 112% but not the achievement because I wanna get it with embrace the void

[sullen leaf]

im thinking either

[candid harbor]

I will steal the idea

[sullen leaf]

wayward compass only dream no more

[hasty garden]

P5 ending

[sullen leaf]

or p5

[hasty garden]

Dont forget gathering swarm

[oak finch]

Omg it’s my twin brother

[sullen leaf]

bro that literally trivializes the fight why would i use it

🙄

[young otter]

basically cheating

[sullen leaf]

exactly

[young otter]

why would you even suggest that smh

now imagine a gathering swarm fly appears, grabs the boss and flies away

alternatively, carries it towards you

[hasty garden]

Best charm build for P5:
Dreamsheild
Nothing else

[shell pine]

What avout grimmchild

[young otter]

dreamshield is cool, it honestly is

[candid harbor]

Emotional support grimmchild

[hasty garden]

Actually carefree melody

[sullen leaf]

consider:
fragile greed

[shell pine]

Fuck no

[young otter]

but it suffers from the same dilemma that many other charms do: HIGH COST

[shell pine]

Grimchild is better

[oak finch]

I only use 4 charms permanently

[shell pine]

I present to you
Jonis blessing for p5

[young otter]

three notches just for THAT is not worth it

[sullen leaf]

joni's blessing, quick focus, and deep focus
youll thank me later

[young otter]

if dreamshield was two notches it would see some amount of actual use

[hasty garden]

I saw someone say that when combined with fury of the fallen it gives you a second shield at half health like markoth

[shell pine]

4 for jonis blessing is worse😭

[young otter]

even if just by newer players

[hasty garden]

Yeah

[young otter]

did you know it spins faster when you focus

[shell pine]

what?

You cant even heal with jonis blessing😭

[oak finch]

I just use 4 charms for anything and that’s it

[sullen leaf]

lifeblood charms should be reduced by one notch

[hasty garden]

Most people agree no charms should be 4 notches

[young otter]

then why does the game give you exactly enough charm notches for that

[shell pine]

Kingsoul rn

[shell pine]

Wdym

[hasty garden]

Yeah I mean if you've ever taken damage with it you would know

[young otter]

soul eater is the only charm that feels justified as 4 notches

[shell pine]

Fair

[young otter]

11 notches

[shell pine]

Yeah

[young otter]

like lets look at deep focus and quick focus

[oak finch]

Guys I’m gonna go now have a nice day

[sullen leaf]

team cherry is allergic to making viable health charms (trust)

[young otter]

quick focus is an upgrade, for 3 notches (3 is really steep)

[hasty garden]

Void heart is way too op for pantheons

[young otter]

deep focus is a SIDEGRADE for FOUR NOTCHES

like they made it have a good effect, so they balanced it by making you heal slower with it

THEN they made it 4 notches too, as if it didn't make you heal slower

[hasty garden]

Its actually an upgrade, you heal ever so slightly faster then healing twice

[sullen leaf]

lets make lifeblood heart 1 notch whos with me

[young otter]

if you heal continuously

honestly, lifeblood heart feels okay at 2, but hmm

[hasty garden]

It should be 3 or 4 hearts for 1 notch because its completely useless if you have unbreakable health or even fragile

[young otter]

joni's should... honestly it's just a bad effect

I don't know how you could fix that

[sullen leaf]

all the lifeblood charms just dont feel worth it with their current notch costs

[young otter]

besides like, idk, converting SOME of your regular masks into lifeblood

not ALL OF THEM

[sullen leaf]

lifeblood heart is just a really early game version of fragile heart

[young otter]

heart is viable in super early game especially for a new player

[sullen leaf]

i used lifeblood heart early in my steel soul run

but as soon as i found leg eater i swapped out for fragile heart

[young otter]

yeahhh

[hasty garden]

Jonis should instead be 3 notches and let you gain a lifeblood heart by focusing your full base soul meter

[young otter]

letting you overheal would be cool yeah

capped, obviously, can't go too crazy with it

[hasty garden]

It would be good for players who dont take damage a lot and dont use spells

[young otter]

yeah

[hasty garden]

Yeah like 4

[young otter]

only issue I see is getting into the lifeblood core area

but like, eh whatever

solutions can be made, also cocoons exist lmao

[hasty garden]

I dont like how that works anyways

[young otter]

honestly that'd make it much more interesting

having to chain a couple of cocoons for it

honestly... a key problem with that is just how

forgettable it is, and also there's almost nothing hinting at what to do

[hasty garden]

It should just be like a tablet saying "only those bestowed the blue child's blessing may enter" or something

[young otter]

YEAH

doesn't the thing say like

a deep blue stone atop a dais

that tells me NOTHING man

[hasty garden]

Also i was thinking about the lifeblood in the abyss earlier

[hasty garden]

It doesn't say anything

I never noticed there's a creature in the background of the lifeblood core room

Also I don't like how it locks you out

[young otter]

if there was like a cocoon nearby or something

[hasty garden]

I missed the arcane egg and im pissed off

[young otter]

to make it so you approach it with lifeblood masks and see how a few things lit up

then you would immediately clue in on how to open the door

[hasty garden]

I heard a theory that the radiance hijacked lifeblood to make the infection

[young otter]

y'know, it's not out of the question

twisting its mind into hers

[hasty garden]

Also it would make perfect sense if the reason lifeblood was deemed taboo was because of the pale king had some beef with the abyss creature

Or maybe because there was risk of infection

[young otter]

that thing is weird

if you've played silksong you may uh

know why it's taboo...

[hasty garden]

Ive seen

[young otter]

[tame canyon]

I just found something you can exploit in brooding mawlek fight.

When it does the half area attack its arms stop attacking

[young otter]

yes

then you hit it a ton while it's standing there like an idiot

[tame canyon]

Just leaned that when fighting it on ascended

[hasty garden]

Yeah the easiest way to do it is when it spits the big shot pogo thrice and ddark

[young otter]

only swipes during the regular spit attack

[hasty garden]

https://tenor.com/view/diana-bishop-our-power-is-the-lifeblook-of-all-witches-magic-magic-witches-power-gif-5288370223264534464

[tame canyon]

I also got two more bosses on radiant mode

[hasty garden]

Lifeblood

[tame canyon]

Soul warrior and flukemarm

[hasty garden]

Both easy

[tame canyon]

So far I only radiant the easy ones

[hasty garden]

Radiant mantis lords

[tame canyon]

All 4 radiant are those two and both crystal guardian versions

[hasty garden]

Normal not p5 version

[tame canyon]

I was actually trying to radiant sisters of battles first lol

[hasty garden]

Bad idea

[young otter]

tempting but just do the easier one first

[hasty garden]

I tried and dashed straight into one because my shade dash was early

[young otter]

btw joni's description is disturbing

[tame canyon]

Sisters is just more fun

[young otter]

transfigures vital fluids into blue lifeblood

[hasty garden]

Transfigures vital fluids into lifeblood?

I knew it

[young otter]

yeah..

like uh, I need those lmao

[hasty garden]

Not that disturbing

That implies lifeblood is a viable source of blood

[young otter]

ah yes just swap out all of my blood and digestive fluids with lifeblood, sure, it's "healthy"! :D

life...

oh my god I get it now

[hasty garden]

Wait doesn't that mean you get lifeblood saliva

[young otter]

mmmm

constant lifeblood taste

[hasty garden]

Oxygen is a fluid

[young otter]

...hm

[hasty garden]

And its pretty vital

[young otter]

oh dear

[hasty garden]

Bugs breath through skin did you know that

[young otter]

no

would you say void is a vital fluid for vessels

the knight is no longer void they are now BLUE

[hasty garden]

Thats why bugs used to be bigger because there was more oxygen in the air so they became bigger to breath more

[young otter]

hopefully not

ahh fair

more surface area

[tame canyon]

The existence of the hollow knight implies the existence of a filled knight

[frigid bridge]

the vessels ARE void their skulls is just a shell

[young otter]

the hollow knight isn't even hollow

filled with infection

[hasty garden]

Maybe same reason why we see big bugs in game

Because oxygen also decreased

[young otter]

I don't think the black body is made of void

because like

have you seen [almost any bug in the game]

[tame canyon]

Wouldn't it be the opposite? More oxygen means bigger

[frigid bridge]

the vessels are atleast

[tame canyon]

Black body of what? The knight and hollow Knight? If so they aren't normal bugs at all.

[hasty garden]

Yeah but i mean oxygen got fewer over time so bugs also got smaller

[young otter]

more bugs

[hasty garden]

Btw filled knight is broken vessel

Its filled with plague

[young otter]

filled knight is "The Hollow Knight"

[frigid bridge]

both are filled with the infection

[young otter]

the hollow knight is the source of being filled with infection lmao

they are DIRECTLY filled with it lmao

[hasty garden]

Broken vessel moreso because its fully animated by infection

[young otter]

me when I fill my cup and it stops being hollow

the formerly hollow knight

[frigid bridge]

yeah THK just posses the radiance broken vessel is a dead vessel possesed by the infection

[hasty garden]

Me when I order an endless bucket of popcorn and I run out

How did they even like put the radiance in there

[young otter]

um

carefully

[hasty garden]

Also btw only yesterday did I realize why the god of light is a moth

[young otter]

lol

[frigid bridge]

isnt the radiance just a bug the plagues dreams

through that it controls bugs

[half granite]

Broken vessel is more infection than the hollow knight because the hollow knight has conscience and will stab himself to help you but the broken vessel simply is filled with the small infection things.

[hasty garden]

You think to some capacity jellyfish were bug-made as a prototype hollow knight

[frigid bridge]

no

[hasty garden]

It seems weird that jellyfish exist in hallownest and they dont have brains so

Just a neat ball of infection

[frigid bridge]

no not really

monomon the teacher

[orchid wasp]

And Monomon was kinda jelly and she’s a
Teacher..?

[hasty garden]

Then again they all think of monomon

[frigid bridge]

yea

[hasty garden]

She's the only non enemy jelly

[frigid bridge]

monomon prob made them

[hasty garden]

Jellyfish are my second favorite animal but it hollow knight its so fucking weird

[half granite]

Monomon has a mask and a different composition than the jellyfish as she doesn’t explode

[wide plume]

Teacher of one singular student

[orchid wasp]

Man
Since she made uumuu she should have been named mononom

For that sweet symmetry

[wide plume]

I like to think Monomon is called a teacher due to just simply being smarter than almost everyone in the kingdom

[hasty garden]

Or she could've been uwu

[half granite]

I often think that Lurien would be more of a teacher than monomon

[orchid wasp]

He lowkey stalks people

That’s not a teacher role model

[young otter]

what was his purpose

[orchid wasp]

Stalking people-

[young otter]

looking at rooftops the bugs of the kingdom seems like a useless role

[hasty garden]

Monomon the Teacher
Lurien the Watcher
Herrah the Beast(?)

[wide plume]

Pale King's Glazer Number One!

[hasty garden]

So oddly degrading

[young otter]

HE REALLY IS LMAO

[orchid wasp]

Tbf if anyone know the first sign of the infection it would probably be Lurien

[young otter]

and what the hell is up with watcher knights

[orchid wasp]

They watch

[young otter]

they seem to be for defending lurien

[hasty garden]

Knights to stop lurien from being killed

[young otter]

but fucking why

[wide plume]

Prob calls herself that, Queen of the beasts and such

[young otter]

and the quantity of them in the room

[orchid wasp]

I mean
The seals are a big deal

[young otter]

is really weird too

[frigid bridge]

lurien could be like the prince of city of tears or just a really really rich dude

[orchid wasp]

You can’t just
Leave the dreamers vulnerable

[wide plume]

Prince of what

[frigid bridge]

no idea

[hasty garden]

Because pk hates herrah so he gave lurien knights instead

[young otter]

well then they should've uh, y'know, made knights who would LAST

[wide plume]

The Watcher Knights died holding duty, I respect it

[frigid bridge]

prince of stalking rich bugs

[young otter]

the knights are fucking dead husks

and again, why are there so many of them

surely they would've once spread out

[orchid wasp]

King’s #1 glazer deserves that much cmon

[young otter]

there is no world where it makes sense for them to all be standing guard in that one room

[wide plume]

Why were the Great Five Knights? Cuz More is better

[frigid bridge]

their only job was to protect lurien probably

[young otter]

that is completely impractical

[wide plume]

Pale King's Glazer Number One!

[hasty garden]

Friendly reminder that an early game enemy does the same damage as the radiance

I was first message of the day

[young otter]

ah yes lemme just put an entire fucking army inside of a god damn single room

[wide plume]

It's 10PM

[orchid wasp]

Ok but would you rather fight 10 watcher knights at once or fight them one by one

[young otter]

no it's 5 pm

[wide plume]

Who the fuck would make it past, To be fair

[hasty garden]

For me its 12

[young otter]

see I have proof

[orchid wasp]

Why would they spread out for you to cook lmao

[young otter]

could you imagine all of the knights active at once

[frigid bridge]

its 7am here

[hasty garden]

100 knights vs one vessel

[wide plume]

Everwatchers.

[young otter]

the room would be fucking drowned in them

[frigid bridge]

pretty sure theres a mod for it

[wide plume]

Yeah, someone made a mod for it alr

[young otter]

the knights themselves would have no room to swing their weapons

[orchid wasp]

Good fucking luck unless you install invincibility mods lmao

[wide plume]

They all just begin rolling around and boosting off each other

[young otter]

and btw I'm talking about the bodies in the BACKGROUND as well

[frigid bridge]

FIREBALL

[hasty garden]

They could make the room bigger

[young otter]

NOT just the 6 you right

[wide plume]

We fight all of them

[frigid bridge]

honestly doesnt seem to bad u get basically infinite spells

spam ddark and fireball and pogo

[orchid wasp]

https://youtube.com/shorts/fPwpAHh98dQ?si=x2erkzxSmggI0Afl

[young otter]

LMAO

[hasty garden]

I forgot there weren't only 6 knights

[young otter]

every swing would max out your soul because you're hitting so many at once

yeah there's dozens of them

[frigid bridge]

yea

[young otter]

could you imagine all of the knights visible in the room active at once in a practical scenario

[frigid bridge]

shaman stone would basically solo

[young otter]

it's like having an army fight someone in a closet

clown car battle

[hasty garden]

+Dreamweilder

[young otter]

good luck standing on the ground

when it's coated in watcher knights

[frigid bridge]

would be hard to dreamnail while theres 20 watcner knights

onky useful on the start

[young otter]

exactly

[frigid bridge]

holy my spelling

[young otter]

alternatively, hear me out

stalwart shell, quick focus

[hasty garden]

Im no ears

[young otter]

D:

[young otter]

swing nail once and you've gotten more than enough soul for a heal

[frigid bridge]

just use lifeblood or unbreakable heart at that point

[hasty garden]

What even are watcher knights

[young otter]

same strategy as eternal ordeal

weird guards to protect lurien for some reason

[hasty garden]

They look like no other bug in the game

[wild ingot]

Is there a chance they'll update Hollow Knight for more things or just Silksong? I speak portuguese please tag me

[young otter]

they're clearly empty husks

but it's not clear if that's... intentional or not

[hasty garden]

Of what

[frigid bridge]

hollow knight is an already complete game doubt they will add anything

[young otter]

of Watcher Knights

[opal narwhal]

Zote would easily clear all the watcher knights

[frigid bridge]

grey prince zote solos

[main python]

my eyes

[frigid bridge]

hate that boss worst boss hardest boss pmo

[young otter]

the bosses when I'm the one with contact damage instead of them

[main python]

too many ledger lines

[young otter]

holy shit imagine that

just walk into all your enemies

[wild ingot]

Okay, thanks, but isn't Silksong complete like Hollow Knight? It really is complete (I'm just afraid of finishing it, hahaha)

[opal narwhal]

Guys if u just use flukenest they melt

[frigid bridge]

theres gonna be a dlc

[young otter]

silksong just came out

[hasty garden]

Thorns plus hiveblood but only every 12 seconds

[frigid bridge]

in the near future

[young otter]

thorns is also stupid because like

[wide inlet]

Guys guess what

[main python]

anyways is it normal to feel like you wanna rip your soul apart in trial of the fool

[young otter]

knockback

[hasty garden]

Chicken butt

[young otter]

do not do the motherboard again I swear to god

[wide inlet]

Why the fuck is people saying chicken butt?

[wild ingot]

oh yes, thanks a lot

[hasty garden]

We're guessing what

[wide inlet]

I'm genuinely trying to get people to guess...

[young otter]

they wouldn't just not make any content expansions

[wide inlet]

Oh fair I guess

[young otter]

lmao

[hasty garden]

Doesn't he look short and stubby up close

[opal narwhal]

If they dont give us the abyss expansion in silksong im rioting

[frigid bridge]

honestly hope they add godhome to ss would be fun

[wide inlet]

If godhome had both HK bosses and SS bosses then yes it'll be peak

[hasty garden]

Someone said that instead of pantheons there's symphonies

[frigid bridge]

yea that would be good

then add lost savage beastfly

[hasty garden]

The games play completely different it wouldn't work

[young otter]

big shoulders

[hasty garden]

Dont spoil me

[wide inlet]

Fair point...

[frigid bridge]

it isnt spoilers just a joke lol

[young otter]

OI NO SILKSONG SPOILERS IN THIS CHANNEL

[hasty garden]

I keep hearing about this beastfly guy

[young otter]

boss names are a no-no

[wide plume]

?tag ontopic

[river dome]

keep sequel topics to the sequel channels #sk-help #sk-lore #sk-discussion

[frigid bridge]

oh i see my bad

[young otter]

yeah you'll die to it basically

[wide inlet]

YKNOW WHAT FOR DOING SPOILERS, I CAST SURPRISE MOTHERBOARD

[main python]

and there would be 9 of them and make godseeker's equivalent die after the ninth one bc that's what composers do

[wide plume]

Be afraid

[young otter]

be very afraid

[frigid bridge]

WHAT

[hasty garden]

Dude why are you yelling at me and not the guy who mentioned him

[young otter]

OH MY GOD

[wide plume]

For this exact reaction

[young otter]

not yelling at you

[hasty garden]

OH MY GOD

YOURE RIGHT

[young otter]

maybe, just maybe, they were agreeing with you

[hasty garden]

Yk what i meant

[young otter]

yes and my point stands

[hasty garden]

Then why would he put the command

[young otter]

reminding on the matter

it doesn't have to mean it was directed at you

[hasty garden]

But I already knew

[young otter]

just hand on shoulder

[hasty garden]

But he replied with it

[main python]

I cast manual breathing until I beat trial of the fool

[young otter]

could've been resonating what you said

[hasty garden]

I dont do that

[young otter]

lmao

then I forget about it and it becomes automatic again

[hasty garden]

I dont know figurative language please explain

[main python]

you don't breathe??

[young otter]

idk, not accusing you directly

[frigid bridge]

trial of fool is honestly pretty easy especially when u already ddi godhome god tamer

[young otter]

oxygen addicts istg

[hasty garden]

No even if i tried to i couldn't breathe manually

[main python]

I wish god tamer was the hardest part honestly

[frigid bridge]

primal aspids lmao

[young otter]

ever gasped?

[hasty garden]

Dudeski im a plant i dont take that stuff

[young otter]

or sighed?

[main python]

yeah and the spiky floor

[hasty garden]

Thats automatic

[young otter]

that's manual breathing right there

[hasty garden]

Also automatic

[young otter]

no that's a yawn

speaking of which I just did one

[hasty garden]

Ive never sighed on purpose

[young otter]

what literally how

[frigid bridge]

what

[hasty garden]

Also automatic

[main python]

ok um

[frigid bridge]

yawn and sigh is different

[young otter]

that's like the only time you ever sigh is on purpose dude

[hasty garden]

Is this not normal?

[young otter]

^^^^^^^^

[frigid bridge]

do u like not sigh

[young otter]

YAWNING is automatic, sighing is like ONLY manual

[frigid bridge]

ive never heard of this

[hasty garden]

I do but not on purpose

[young otter]

you don't fucking sigh automatically wtf are you saying

[main python]

was the manual breathing thing not the best choice of threat

[young otter]

LMAO

[hasty garden]

Yawning is when you open your mouth to release compact air

[main python]

it seems not

[frigid bridge]

yawning is like breathing in air when ur sleepy sighing is letting OUT ur air when ur frustrated or smth

[young otter]

"what have I started?"

[main python]

now everyone is discussing what manual breathing actually is

[hasty garden]

Nvm its just a deep breath

[young otter]

in what world is sighing automatic

[frigid bridge]

ong

[main python]

I WAS JUST COMPLAINING ABOUT TRIAL OF THE FOOL DON'T TAKE IT TOO SERIOUSLY 😭

[hasty garden]

Litteraly if I wanted to i could not sigh

[frigid bridge]

yawning is something u cant force

[young otter]

if it's automatic it's not a sigh that's just BREATHING

[main python]

and also pls breathe

[young otter]

I can though

[hasty garden]

Then ive never sighed

[young otter]

I just yawned again.

[main python]

not breathing is bad for your health

[dreamy bone]

I got my homecoming dress

[young otter]

TRUE

[wide plume]

Your blinking manually now

[dreamy bone]

Booooyah

[frigid bridge]

dude i have gills

im a fish

[young otter]

ten out of ten doctors recommend breathing

[hasty garden]

I dont do that either

[main python]

did I stutter?

[young otter]

that's still breathing bro

fish BREATHE through their gills

[dreamy bone]

I am gills and I manually ram ventilate because I am a shark

[wide plume]

You do realize that gills literally just allow fish to breathe under water right? They just filter the water and get the oxygen

[frigid bridge]

they process the oxygen

[wide plume]

Have you never been to a biology class on your life

[main python]

oh got it just got worse

ykw I'm out

[young otter]

same way you breathe with your mouth/nose

[wide plume]

Have you never been scrolling youtube so far you end up on a Fish Biology video your too lazy to scroll past

[hasty garden]

Actually no I haven't but im knowledgeable on the subject

[wide plume]

You don't count

[frigid bridge]

is it BREATHING tho

[young otter]

yes

[hasty garden]

Awh

[frigid bridge]

breathing is like air isnt it

[young otter]

no

it is not

[main python]

plants breathe

[wide plume]

random google ass image go

[young otter]

that's only the case for us because we do not live underwater

[hasty garden]

Sideshow bob has gills and he doesn't live underwater

[young otter]

what-

[cosmic minnow]

Banger name

[young otter]

does he?

[cosmic minnow]

Ran outta space for letters :(

[frigid bridge]

u playing mods

[hasty garden]

Australian deity ahh name

[young otter]

when I think of sideshow bob I think of his ENORMOUS feet

[hasty garden]

I think of his hair

[young otter]

because that's like his defining character trait besides wanting to kill bart simpson

yeah that too I guess

[cosmic minnow]

Oh yea also I beat path of pain a second time earlier today

[young otter]

his hair is fairly distinct

but like, holy feet batman!

[main python]

good, but next time you have to add 70 more letters

[frigid bridge]

pop is fairly easy if youve done it before

[wide plume]

Yes

[dreamy bone]

fish do use their gills for breathing. They inhale water and oxygen through her mouths and run the water through their gills with their buccal muscle when they exhale. The gills intake dissolved oxygen and put it into their blood stream, similar to respiration that occurs in animals with lungs

Ok srry

[cosmic minnow]

I can’t I hit the character limit

[stable shore]

i thought they just didnt breathe wth

[wide plume]

Do not be sorry child, I'm proud of you

[dreamy bone]

Good fish

[main python]

can we stop talking about breathing

[wide plume]

Why

[hasty garden]

I won't breath until Ari Gibson personally responds to this message

[dreamy bone]

No fish were brought up it’s my speciality

[hasty garden]

(Joke)

[main python]

just because

[cosmic minnow]

Can we stop breathing

[velvet cypress]

Such a perfect day to play hollow knight ngl

[stable shore]

is there an issue with breathing

[wide plume]

Go out and live

[main python]

that seems like a better idea, lemme just

[frigid bridge]

its overrated honestly

[wide plume]

Whoever lasts longer is The No.1 Breath Holder!

[hasty garden]

What do you call a football game with fat dads?
||City of beers! ||

[velvet cypress]

..

[wide plume]

Does this make sense, I'm Not American

[cosmic minnow]

How dare you

[stable shore]

what do u do instead

[main python]

idk but as far as I know I just casted manual breathing on everyone, not spoken breathing

[dreamy bone]

The reason many sharks have to keep moving is because of the lack of a buccal muscle, which means they lack gill covers and keep their gills constantly open so they can keep breathing. Sharks like nurse sharks have buccal muscles and can survive without constantly having to swim

[stable shore]

do u just not

[hasty garden]

Ok alien

[wide plume]

What about Manual Blinking

[stable shore]

im gonna find u

[velvet cypress]

Im still like months away from beating u ngl

[main python]

no I didn't mention that y'all brought that up all by yourself

[frigid bridge]

u just dont

[wide plume]

It's easy

[frigid bridge]

pretty simple if u ask me

[hasty garden]

I can intentionally blink but I cant not blink

[cosmic minnow]

How bro ;-;

[stable shore]

gotchu

ill try this

[wide plume]

Can you Manually Your Fingers

[velvet cypress]

Im still in the rain place

[wide plume]

City

[cosmic minnow]

Bro.

[velvet cypress]

Ya

[hasty garden]

Do what to my fingers

[main python]

what if we stop breathing until I beat trial of the fool

[wide plume]

Perchance

is that too extreme

[cosmic minnow]

You can’t just say perchance?

[wide plume]

You can't just say perchance

[stable shore]

so u want us all dead…..

[frigid bridge]

so like never?

fair enough

[cosmic minnow]

Trial of the fool was easy af took me like 3 tries

[hasty garden]

How far did you get

[main python]

exactlyyyy

[wide plume]

@main python You've repeated the same joke like 4 times already 🎋

[frigid bridge]

took me 5

[wide plume]

It took me 6 😭

[frigid bridge]

i blame primal aspids wouldve first tried it

[hasty garden]

Took me 2 on my 5th attempt or smth

[hasty garden]

@wide plume You've repeated the same joke like 4 times already 🎋

[wide plume]

You've Repeated The Joke about me repeating the Joke 2 Times Already 🎋

[frigid bridge]

wtf is that bamboo emoji

[wide plume]

Only I get the funny points of calling it out

[orchid wasp]

They took the Aspids sweethearts irl and turn them into the spawn of hell

[frigid bridge]

why are we using ts

[hasty garden]

You've Repeated The Joke about me repeating the Joke 2 Times Already 🎋

[wide plume]

Potato 🎋

[hasty garden]

Idk i use the lesbian heartbreak

[wide plume]

Why

[frigid bridge]

oh thats tuff

[hasty garden]

Because im lesbian and heartbreak is the most known heartbreak emoji

[main python]

I once barely got through the mantis part but other than that I die either there or in the floorless primal aspid part before that

I'm not that good okay

[wide plume]

💔

[frigid bridge]

just use spells

[wide plume]

I'd figure this one would be the most known heartbreak emoji

[hasty garden]

💌

[hasty garden]

It is

[stable shore]

what nail do u have

[main python]

pure

[frigid bridge]

im not in any servers with different heart break emojis

[stable shore]

wth 😭

use more nail arts id say

everyone gives this tip but it really does make it easier

[frigid bridge]

NO NAIL ARTS DISTRACTS U HARRDD

[stable shore]

just climb up the walls and dash slash the aspids

[frigid bridge]

I HATE NAIL ARTS

[hasty garden]

Im only in one and it has two members one is a bot

[main python]

that's what I'm trying but apparently mr. skill issue is stronger 😭

[hasty garden]

Nail arts are hard to use

[frigid bridge]

u make ur own emojis basically

[hasty garden]

Yeah

[young otter]

nail arts are situational

[stable shore]

once u manage to make it a normal thing its really strong tho

[stable shore]

yea thats fair

[young otter]

e.g. they can one shot primal aspids

[hasty garden]

And I cant use them

[young otter]

that's a great use of them

[wide plume]

Rad Markoth

[frigid bridge]

i know i just never learned it beat p5 before learning how to use it

[young otter]

[main python]

maybe I should actually change to the spell strategy

shaman stone don't fail me pls

[frigid bridge]

shaman stone my goat

[stable shore]

yea fs 😭

[hasty garden]

There's no situation in collo where spells are better then nail

Except god tamer

[stable shore]

i mean idk the main hard part for me was just the one where u cling to the walls but its just a matter of passing that

[main python]

well um

[hasty garden]

And oblobles

[main python]

any suggestions then

[young otter]

oblobbles are so annoying

[hasty garden]

Quick focus

[frigid bridge]

dodging whioe holding attack is hard

[hasty garden]

They have a blind spot

[stable shore]

i mean yea

[young otter]

yet once again, upon returning to the game after so long

[frigid bridge]

trial of fool is just half air tho

[young otter]

oblobbles has not put up as much resistance as I recall

[stable shore]

it just needs to become muscle memory

[hasty garden]

Dont take damage in that part

[young otter]

I still think I'd be banging my head against a brick wall trying to do it radiant, but I definitely COULD

[frigid bridge]

thats basically jusr saying git gud

[young otter]

it'd just take many tries...

[frigid bridge]

😭

[hasty garden]

Thats actually the best advice for hk though

[frigid bridge]

yup

[hasty garden]

Anyways gn I have school tmrw

[young otter]

skill is king

[main python]

ok so apparently, great slash or be cooked but I'm so cooked I became kingdom's edge's ashes
