quiet sentinel
#

such an awkward mechanic

opal totem
#

Me sometimes

#

Shaman's strike is great

quiet sentinel
#

you just said you didnt like it

dense wasp
#

||the needle strike is the best part of it does 4.5x needle at base and it jumps to like 7.5x needle with flintslate||

opal totem
#

For shaman dash attack is ass, the rest is great

quiet sentinel
#

why would ANYONE be talking about liking witch

opal totem
#

I like witch

quiet sentinel
#

:(

dense wasp
#

its on par with like ||beast||

opal totem
#

Didn't like it at first but it kinda grew on me

quiet sentinel
#

you exist to oppose me

dense wasp
#

its like 5th in terms of how the crests rank but theyre all not far apart except for the worst and best imo

quiet sentinel
#

with all the other crests why do i see so many people running reaper

#

it felt awkward when i got it so i never used it

dense wasp
#

the range and pogo are comfortable but i dont like it nor do i think its good

opal totem
#

Reaper feels like a noob trap

dense wasp
#

also please :3

quiet sentinel
#

i wanna move to beta but i wonder if mods work on beta

opal totem
#

People get it, see the pogo and refuse to try anything else for the rest of the game

quiet sentinel
#

hunter pogo is so fun i dont get the hate

opal totem
gray horizon
#

i mean i use reaper because it just looks cool and has nice vibes

opal totem
#

Shaman build is obvious, witch is all bind tools

delicate nexus
#

might start playing hornets og crest, just want to get that vibe

dense wasp
opal totem
#

I used egg for a long time but light is better I feel

#

Egg is fine for exploration I think

dense wasp
#

also spoiler tags

opal totem
#

Spoilering on phone is pain

dense wasp
opal totem
#

||I have injector band in vesti on anything||

dense wasp
#

i dont get the appeal of that like everyone is running it

opal totem
#

I think some other blues are worth trying on beast but I didn't get to it

opal totem
quiet sentinel
dense wasp
opal totem
#

Also makes ||multibinder|| useable

quiet sentinel
#

noone uses quick focus

dense wasp
#

its just shaman quickslash strength

quiet sentinel
#

yea multibinder synergy is the main thing

opal totem
#

I don't see shaman use

dense wasp
#

what world do you live in shaman is the charm

opal totem
#

Granted I don't see anyone's builds but mine

#

I just sort of played the whole game with long nail quick focus quick slash

dense wasp
#

waiter! waiter! another shaman d.dark instead of dodging please

quiet sentinel
#

my build was just pride strength quickslash steady body

dense wasp
#

i think when i first beat the game it was quickslash shaman strength sharpshadow

#

i use spelltwister instead now

opal totem
#

When I first beat the game I didn't use spells

gray horizon
#

reject ||"lugoli"||
embrace ||ass jim||

dense wasp
quiet sentinel
dense wasp
quiet sentinel
#

thats kinda the way it is in both games, you only start using spells as an offensive option once youre better

opal totem
#

I know thread storm is stupid but I refuse

dense wasp
#

i also gotta figure out a third blue for ||hunter reaper wanderer (i have longclaw and volt on all of them)||

dense wasp
quiet sentinel
#

does rune even hit ever

opal totem
#

Oh

#

I think I switched depending on what part of the game I'm in

#

Mostly ran ||sharp dart on beast||

hardy jolt

#

can I still get ||plasmium syringe in act 3||

dense wasp

opal totem

#

i think its worse than base unless youre using ||witch or claw mirror stuff since it makes the healing window worse and +1 mask isnt that big of a deal when you get 3 already||

dense wasp

need to find a ||craft metal...||

||but bell beast is already cute, so would this make it cuter bell beast||

||pollip is kind of sad though its only two 3 damage ticks and it doesnt stack||

trail pagoda

he has had better days

quiet sentinel
#

are you just making silly builds

opal totem
#

For some reason

dense wasp
#

no im trying to optimize

dense wasp
quiet sentinel
#

why is mirror there

dense wasp
#

wait that was wrong

#

was meant to be light

#

mirror is really strong though its like uh

#

30 + 12 x 3 iirc

quiet sentinel
#

what is this

hollow laurel
dense wasp

#

I need mod that makes hornet pablo

quiet sentinel
#

uhh where does he go

hardy jolt
quiet sentinel
#

ooh

#

that wont mess with 100%

#

or will it

hardy jolt
#

sorry you have to talk to sherma every single encounter or else you wont get 100% /silly

quiet sentinel

#

I was hoping for ||passive bench silk artiyoy ||

glad stratus
opal totem
#

Next time

#

Maybe

hollow laurel
#

oh my god lmao

trail pagoda
#

55% done with the steam achievements for silksong on steam

#

So far my top 3 crests are ||witch, wanderer and shaman||

#

What your guys top 3

opal totem
#

Probably ||architect shaman and wanderer|| in no specific order

trail pagoda
#

I like ||architect||

#

The gimmick is cool

#

You just get poor in the process

opal totem
#

The moveset is cooler

#

And it doesn't make you poor

trail pagoda
#

Shards

opal totem
#

Needle

trail pagoda
#

Well thats a thing

#

Main gimmick is still ||crafting on the go||

opal totem
#

Well people should use it

#

Instead of assuming ||architect with cogflies turns you into terraria summoner||

#

I rarely use the gimmick

trail pagoda
#

I am trying to use it for ||beast heart||

#

Another cool one is ||overdose||

#

But my favorite is ||witch crest||

trail pagoda
queen trench
#

I've still only played around with hunter, and that won't change as long as I don't have my controller fixed, luckily I ordered the repair parts so now it's mostly just waiting

opal totem
#

Why can't you just play on keyboard

queen trench
# opal totem Why can't you just play on keyboard

because I'm pretty bad on keyboard and because controller is more fun for me. I'm now playing hk on keyboard and gradually getting better, but that won't change the fact that I like controller more

hardy jolt
opal totem
#

Idk I think playing silksong on keyboard is more fun than not playing it

quiet sentinel
#

wruff

hardy jolt
#

arf

quiet sentinel
#

some people prefer watching :3

trail pagoda
#

Maybe cuz I never had played with the controller before

foggy grotto
#

keyboard is perfectly fine

opal totem
#

Not a fan of how on controller you have one finger to press 4 buttons

queen trench
opal totem
#

Aren't you ruining it by being in a spoiler channel

queen trench
#

well I am in late act 2 so most non-spoilered spoilers don't spoil me

#

like, my controller broke just as I got the ||silk and soul wish||

opal totem
#

Too bad, silksong dies in the end

#

Now you're spoiled and can't enjoy the game anymore

wooden sun
#

Don't spoil act 10 like that man!

queen trench

#

Depression

#

I fought the two ||moth mothers in act 3||

#

My life would have been easier if I did that before

opal totem
#

Were they ||voided||

trail pagoda
#

They indeed were

opal totem
#

Fun

trail pagoda
#

I just sneezed with ||witch crest|| near them and eventually they exploded

#

I need to defeat ||emo trobbio an upgrade my Druid's eye|| so I can have the full crest potential

#

Ref please do something rivflabbergasted

prisma linden
quiet sentinel
#

how did it even GET there

prisma linden
#

it followed me into the corner of the room transition and just... stayed there

#

||happened to come out the moment it was a few hits from death||

mental shuttle
#

Im evil

opal totem
#

Evil would never say that

trail pagoda
#

Can I go back ||to the abyss?||

#

Thank god

#

Missed the ||farsight||

#

It happens monkwail

#

I just wanted to get out of there cuz I felt like I was gonna be swallowed by that place

quiet sentinel
#

when i first got it i thought it would be like some spectator type thing

#

where you can just spectate anywhere you want in the world and stuff

opal totem
#

I thought it'll just let me zoom out

quiet sentinel
#

it cannot be that good

mental shuttle
#

It might be that good

#

Voltvessels 🤑

opal totem
#

You are giving it up for one of the best movesets

quiet sentinel
#

the pogo sucks

#

its so short

opal totem
#

Charge it

#

I thought it sucks until I found out it's chargeable

mental shuttle
#

Slight pause before pogo messes me up

#

The hitboxes are awful on archi tho 💔

quiet sentinel
#

its just not the crest for me i suppose

opal totem
#

Awfully large

mental shuttle
#

I cant hit fucking anything

opal totem
#

Skill

hardy jolt
#

fun vid

mental shuttle
#

I can somehow hit more with ||wanderer||

trail pagoda
quiet sentinel
#

id watch it but im too busy watching someone play through osrs with 1 hp

hardy jolt
trail pagoda
#

He doesn't staple any best crest tho

#

Cuz in the end there isnt really

#

All crests are good ||besides beast||

opal totem
#

He forgot that sprint attack exists on most crests

#

Beast is ok

#

People just don't want to get used to it

trail pagoda
#

The lack of blue slots makes it more difficult to build around

#

The 3 early are the best cuz they are balanced between all tools

dense wasp
opal totem
#

It doesn't need blue slots

#

It's not||witch|| that needs all its slots to make use of the gimmick, it works on its own

dense wasp
trail pagoda
opal totem
#

And wanderer is not balanced

#

It's just stupidly good

#

It's like beast gameplay but without the gimmick

dense wasp
trail pagoda
#

||reaper carried me through act 1 ngl||

dense wasp

low floor low ceiling

queen trench

#

Reaper is "I don't want to learn hunter's pogo" crest

#

And I feel like wanderer is "I just want to play hollow knight" crest

dense wasp
#

just because theyre annoying to do doesnt mean you should do them

queen trench
dense wasp
#

and also consolidate your messages into one message

trail pagoda
#

I just want to beat ||emo trobbio|| monkdesperation

hollow laurel
#

its litterally just adding || to the start and the end of your messages its not that hard

queen trench

anyway I'm being a bit too negative here so I'm gonna leave now

opal totem

hollow laurel
opal totem
#

Yes

hollow laurel
#

its so easy...

opal totem
#

You're just more skilled at typing

dense wasp
#

how annoying it is is an opinion but it is explicitly stated to spoiler everything

#

so please do that

wooden sun
#

I mean, if typing the spoiler bars is annoying, you can just highlight the text, and select the option to format it for spoilers. (This even works on mobile I'm pretty sure)

opal totem
#

Maybe on newer mobile version it does

#

On pc it's no problem yeah

Damn

That's fire

#

And with the taunt multiplier that's 19.5 dmg for 6 seconds

#

Wow

dense wasp
#

the taunt is only for the first hit

glad stratus
#

Oh really?

#

Does it stack?

dense wasp
#

no idea but i doubt it

#

ik the animation does damage but i dont know how much and im too tired to install damage numbers again

||I saw her at conchfly and sister splinter but she left home for some other one I never found, skull tyrant maybe?||

quiet sentinel
#

ive seen them at ||tyrant, the conchflies, and then there was one more which i forgot but different than sister splinter||

opal totem
#

||Second moss mother maybe?||

quiet sentinel
#

maybe? im really not sure on this, but i did see them again when exploring around for 100% down there so most likely

dense wasp
#

ok it seems like the taunt itself does ~0.5x needle of damage and seems like it only works if the enemy hasnt noticed you yet

quiet sentinel
#

i didnt even know it did damage

glad stratus
#

||HELL YEAH NEEDLE STRIKE||

dense wasp
#

its called challenge in keybinds

#

you can always do it

#

the game just never mentions it

queen trench

ohhhh, that's cool then, that it ||does damage||

glad stratus

i think it also has a hitbox itself :3

Is ledge grab deactivated for ||flea dodge|| specifically????

opal totem
#

I think not

mental shuttle
#

I can never grab the ledge of the platforms

quiet sentinel
#

sometimes when you float it doesnt grab

#

and just bounces you away

#

otherwise idk whats happening to you

mental shuttle
#

Can they maybe fix that shit 😭

quiet sentinel
#

its really inconsistent

mental shuttle
#

Thats fucked me up in other places too

quiet sentinel
#

better to let go right as youre about to grab instead of keep holding is the best counter, it feels like a bug just because sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt

#

maybe the hitbox just gets weird

mental shuttle
#

The float bounces you against the wall when you wanna land on it
And literally glues you to the wall when you don't

hardy jolt
#

i thinnk it only happens if ur too high trying to grab the ledge? like if near the bottom of ur cloak is hitting the ledge

mental shuttle

Sometimes the cloak just
Doesnt activate????

(getting 30 isn't sufficient, you need 31)

unreal hedge
#

||damn, I suppose I need to finish getting all the Bellhome upgrades||
If I could have rosaries hunterangy

#

it feels like Silksong has the opposite money problem from HK: in HK I bought everything early on and had a bajillion geo for the rest of the game, in Silksong I got to 99% and still had to buy a tool from a shop afterwards to reach 100%, even without losing anything to deaths

quiet sentinel
#

at least it makes sense thematically and lore wise

#

wouldnt make sense for a random squib to drop 20 rosaries

mental shuttle
quiet sentinel
#

tbh though i dont see the complaint like it maybe took me 10m to get all the stuff i needed at the end

Its already hard enough to get the ||oil||

opal totem

Remember how much hk's nailmaster charged you

"Mask are needed, sadly not everyone gets one at birth. My task is to make sure that they can have a replacement"

opal totem
#

Which one said that

#

Hk?

digital robin
#

Not exactly that, but the idea behind their main dialogue is that

quiet sentinel
#

masks are a reoccurring theme of identity but some are used for stranger purposes like the troupe masks

digital robin
quiet sentinel
#

mossbag has an entire video analysing masks in hk and their meanings, its a really good watch i recommend

opal totem
#

Will do

digital robin
#

the 5h one is a lot harder (like in HK)

#

100% is just having a map and do 1 or 2 sweeps at the end of act 2 ||and 3||

opal totem
#

I got both speedruns on one save in hk

quiet sentinel
#

same

digital robin
#

this is also a double speedrun save

quiet sentinel
#

pretty sure i got the speedrun 1 on my blind playthrough as well lol

opal totem
#

I'm less confident about ss 5h one

quiet sentinel
#

its actually very lenient

mental shuttle
#

So called "mossbag" when I kill him

quiet sentinel
#

i got it sub 2 hours

#

if you care about efficient routing just follow a any% route and theyre like 1 hour if super optimized and doing skips

#

3 hours if youre doing it casually

digital robin
#

I got ending 1 in 4h, ||curse ending + silk and soul (almost act 2 100%) in arround 13h and then all of act 3 and a few extra stuff like infinite lifeblood and the crow house in 21h||

quiet sentinel
#

thankfully summons arent required

digital robin

||Craw summon?||

imagine if they were and not getting them in those last 9 hours

Also this file had the 2 optional bosses ||(G and Zaza + POSHANKA!)||

digital robin
#

The 30h mark is not too bad if you first try most bosses and don't get ultra stuck (also if you just have a map to not go on circles all the time)

digital robin
#

I also did it

opal totem
#

I did in fact not have a map for half of my 100% speedrun file

doing this route without clearing phantom and mist is basically impossible sadly, you'd have to brute force mist rng room layouts, no-hit speed kill phantom and book it to the dining hall. this is much more likely but if you get a run like this where you kill trobbio but don't have enough time or lose it to a pilgrim like this, you have to rever...

||BB is super easy when you catch the telegraph. If it jumps it will scream (be a bit far away and do a upslash + jump). No scream is the dash (be next to it but not too close to get one hit and then do a poggo) and when in the middle of the screen is the bell attack, where you can get 1 slash in if you want||

i mean its easier to just look at the particles
