||PAST 100||

||by alot too :D||

clever furnace
#

cool

unreal hedge
#

hornet 2 in my steel soul run was a peak gaming experince for me becuase I severely underprepared (including keeping fragile greed enabled and having iirc the worst nail) and spent around a third of the fight on one mask, yet managed to eventually persevere

unreal hedge
#

the Widow fight in Silksong was posing to be the same (underprepared and spending a lot of it on one mask) except I just straight up lost in it instead of persevering monkforbidden

clever furnace
#

dangit I almost nohit LL but her projectile got me :(

@drowsy ginkgo hi there invisible

#

how is steel soul going

hardy jolt
#

disciple of john rain world i curse you with dying to ||bilewater||

tawdry osprey
#

why would you do that to someone

hardy jolt
#

im evil

clever furnace
#

remember, if your health drops to zero you die, so be careful

drowsy ginkgo
#

most dont know this

tawdry osprey
#

or only this one

drowsy ginkgo
#

actually wait no, ||putrefied ducts first||

tawdry osprey
#

its fake

drowsy ginkgo
#

im afraid they already got me, i can feel it

hardy jolt
tawdry osprey
#

dont feel it

#

nullify it

clever furnace
#

ugh I keep getting hit by LL's flycatcher move

#

yea she's only getting me with the flycatcher move now 😭

#

am tryna not to leave the ground too much now, but now I'm getting hit by her standard attack monkforbidden

dim harbor
hardy jolt
#

ty monksilly

hardy jolt
clever furnace
#

am trying, but most of her attacks involve getting off the ground as best answer

hardy jolt
#

you dont have to neglect getting off the ground but look at the telegraphs and if she does the jump attack dont jump

#

all the attacks have a different telegraph so you can tell which

clever furnace
#

oh, if you're too close she gets ya too with the flycatcher

hardy jolt
#

then move backwards

clever furnace
#

yea

#

Skong is fire gang -Mary

#

Cant wait to play more -Mary

#

question which bosses would yall count as hard ones || lost garmond, pinstress, bell eater, khann, nyleth, clover dancers, or edgy tribbio|| very late game question

tawdry osprey
dim harbor
tawdry osprey
dim harbor
#

all of them either first try or second, besides ||bell eater||

tawdry osprey
#

thats more annoying than hard

dim harbor
#

idk hes the only one that took a few tries

clever furnace
#

think bosses are too easy?
I got a solution for you
barbed bracelet

#

NOW they hit as hard as they look

dim harbor
#

tbf on a couple of those bosses i could use it yeah

distant holly
#

do you have the fragile heart?

clever furnace
#

remember, it only boosts needle damage monkdevious
gotta get close and personal to make use of it

distant holly
#

||clover dancers are easier than cogwork dancers due to lacking third phase slugtroll||

dim harbor
#

i just heard bosses in that act, were hard, found none of them hard yet

distant holly
#

silksong has so many things that don’t count to 100% monksilly monksilly monksilly

clever furnace
#

Cant wait for silksong downpour dlc /silly -Mary

queen trench
distant holly
#

theoretically, the drifter’s cloak and ||the faydown cloak|| aren’t percents either. idk if it’s actually possible to get 100% without either though

tawdry osprey

clever furnace
#

TOO EASY LES GOO ā€¼ļø (literal end of the game spoiler)

distant holly
#

what even the point of ||spider strings|| tool

#

i wish needolin was more useful in combat

#

it’s pretty not at all slugtroll. it makes enemies freeze for a bit if you play it.

#

dreamnail (arguably the equivalent "lore" tool in hollow knight) gave soul, which is actually quite useful

#

though, ||grapple (which is kinda like crystal heart) is really good in combat||

hardy jolt
clever furnace
#

||clawline? whenever I try to use it I run into an attack lol||
||either from being forced into the air or an enemy that telegraphed an attack while my finger's already heading for the button||
||clawline got too much end lag for me ig||

#

||nah, I'm using it at the wrong time and never bothered to learn as I find it better to dash in instead monksilly ||

clever furnace
hardy jolt
#

absolutely owned :3

clever furnace
#

does ||clawline|| do needle damage?
maybe it does more which in that case it's worth more than dashing in

hardy jolt
#

yes

#

i think so

clever furnace
#

hm wiki says it's 1x needle damage split in 2 half parts

hardy jolt
#

throwing the needle and then pulling to it

#

both deal damage

slim fjord
#

chat, im stuck on a boos
should I either fight using parries, fight using an ungodly amount of tools/silk skills. or go unga bunga monke spam x?

hardy jolt
#

silk skills have insane dps if you can land them (especially thread storm) so maybe go with that :3

clever furnace
#

mandatory get hit less advice
bind takes a lot of silk which could be used for more silk skills

slim fjord
hardy jolt
#

yesssss

slim fjord

i tried to use ||Beast|| & ||Witch|| crests but [boss name spoiler monkwail] ||Karmelita|| is far too fast for that hunterrip

||im starting to like bilewater for just how comedically evil the area is||

its called ||stockholm's syndrome||

||all part of big bilewaters plan||

opal totem

I like bilewater

Went through it again somewhat underprepared and had fun

I get why people think bilewater is awful, but the pain is the best part!

i swear ||bilewater||'s supposed to be an ||act 3|| area whilst being accessible to act 1 😭

velvet trench
#

Feels like it

icy basin
#

same for how ||hunter's march|| is great when you explore it way later

opal totem

The most fun parts of it are locked behind act 2 anyway

Someone send a full map of bilewater idk where the bellway is

Ok fine I'll google it/pos/neg/srs/i hate u/silly/notsilly

I heard there's two ways to get into bilewater from sinners road

#

Or is there a way into bilewater from sinners road and a way into sinners road from bilewater

foggy grotto
#

well that ||final boss|| was rather ||anticlimactic||

#

a good bit ||easier than I was expecting considering how much people have been talking about difficulty||

is there a ||secret final final boss or something||

#

Is ||voltnest|| a region? -Mary

opal totem
#

More like a subregion

distant holly
#

also you can use any tools since ||they don’t get used for real in memories, they get back to the original amount after dying or leaving memories||

opal totem
#

Didn't they change that

distant holly
#

||it’s not a real place, why would they get used? monksilly||

opal totem
#

Because I keep hearing that they do now

distant holly
#

||shell shards with architect crest also get back, but you need to have them before entering it||

distant holly
#

you still limited to the max uses though (unless with ||architect crest, then current uses + whatever amount can 800 shell shards be crafted into, they also get reverted||).

#

||same with breakable blue tools, they get reverted.||

#

||memories are meant to be like dreams in hollow knight, so nothing is used for real and you can’t die even in steel soul. it should be intended monksilly||

opal totem
#

Guess I'll check if I happen to lose to one of these

clever furnace
#

you can bring shard bundles for more shards lizblueblep
though I don't think you could run through your supply unless you make heavy misuse of tools lol

distant holly
#

weirdly enough, ||you can’t die to first sinner too||

opal totem
#

||I think first sinner is just testing us and not having the intent to kill||

#

||Sort of like a duel||

distant holly
#

that may be it

#

although i think it plays usual death animation

opal totem
#

Doesn't leave the cocoon

distant holly
#

||but it isn’t memory, tools don’t get reverted||

#

||other duels have a special animation replacing death||

#

so it’s some weird middle thing

split sluice
#

OMW to fight last judge on a mid-act 2 save monkdevious

opal totem

||In my current save I took the courier's rasher, went my usual route and realized I haven't beaten last judge yet||

split sluice
clever furnace
#

easy, speedrun a nohit last judge

opal totem
#

||I went exhaust organ route instead, turns out it's quite a bit faster||

||Had 3 pips left at the end after getting hit twice||

Can we all take a moment and admire ||baby hornet|| (Soilers)

||also the blasted steps route is faster because it’s closer to the destination room in the citadel||

#

i mean it’s good otherwise, just not for the quest

#

||the mist is weird monksilly||

split sluice
#

||bilewater is still peam I think||

opal totem
opal totem
#

I think it's still slower

quiet sentinel
#

||mist is faster|| yes

distant holly
#

well, the room needed ||is on the left of the citadel. monksilly. shellwood is pretty straightforward and then few rooms in blasted steps and that’s all||

#

there is more enemies on the other route

#

and environmental hazards

opal totem
#

Hazards yes, enemies no

distant holly
#

||there is basically no enemies on the path monksilly. like 1 in shellwood, few in blasted steps, none in the grand gate. monksilly||

||there is a lot of roaches, and few flying enemies directly on the path in the sinner’s road. there is few more rooms in the citadel but there aren’t a lot of difficult enemies anyway||

split sluice
#

||I’m in the right side of sinner’s road
Oh yeah. It’s bilewater time hunterglee ||

opal totem
#

||There's one room in choral chambers with 6 choir enemies, there's a similar room in the organ route but less enemies and easier to avoid||

#

||Roaches aren't a problem, there are two roachfeeders but they aren't that bad to deal with either||

distant holly
#

i’m thinking about two flying enemies near the bench in sinner’s road monksilly

opal totem
#

||Idk both the hits I took were in choral chambers, nothing until then was an issue||

split sluice
#

I’ve arrived in bilewater, and I’m genuinely tearing up with happiness to be back 🄹

someone here said they hoped i lost there

but not today

@hardy jolt your curse failed

#

but it almost worked

split sluice

#

thank you bilewater šŸ™

opal totem
drowsy ginkgo
#

not yet

opal totem
#

The only part of bilewater I was afraid of

#

The rest is fine

drowsy ginkgo
#

yeah ill be honest i forgot about that room so i am a little worried about that

#

their curse might still work

#

as long as im patient though i dont think there are many more places ill struggle with

split sluice
#

||Bilewater IMO is like a more in your face deepnest in terms of the suffering it inflicts||

#

||for me the reason I hate deepnest is arachnophobia for so bilewater is heaven to me||

drowsy ginkgo
#

im actually a pretty big fan of it too, although i still have complaints

distant holly
#

craws have so "we really wanted to add crows but it’s a bug game" design

clever furnace
#

true, it should've been a bird game monksilly

distant holly
#

and hollow knight just straight up has jellyfish for some reason

drowsy ginkgo
#

have we gotten crustaceans in the game yet? ik there's the ||coral tower|| enemies but idk if they count

#

cuz they're the bugs of the sea

distant holly
#

worms and snails aren’t arthropods either but i guess that’s fine

distant holly
drowsy ginkgo
#

yeah sorta

#

i just want like a full on lobster

#

make it the main antagonist of the next game

opal totem
#

I took the lost fleas wish after getting all of them and seems now I'm stuck with it forever

distant holly
#

multibinder actually doesn’t heal 4 masks at slower rate, but (as the name suggests) it makes hornet bind twice for 2 masks each; so if you’re interrupted during the second bind you actually retain first 2 healed masks monksilly (works better with warding bell). ||so with injector band you heal twice in a row at a faster speed, resulting in the time of a normal bind||.

Isn't it funny that ||it's more cost efficient to replenish silk by drinking at halfway home than by purchasing silk spool from the dispenser||

||I don't think there'd be a lot of fun gameplay to do after that, at best they could make a comic about it||

But hey

You heal for 1.5

mental shuttle

In HK double damage was a heavy blow to your health

#

Since you can only heal one at a time

#

Like

#

Silksong heals make it a fun thing to learn when, and when to not heal

serene oxide
mental shuttle
#

When you are at full hp
And you take 2 dmg you can play it safe and lose 1 heal
Or gamble and hopefully get hit by a 1 dmg attack next

So you can heal 3

moss mothers actually fly quite low to the ground which I'm not expecting, causing me to jump into them for a mask of contact damage

imagine ascended difficulty moss mother was 3 moss mothers monksilly

this fight is actually kinda fire to try and master

A godhome like thingy in skong would be so fire -Lotis

of course!

it could be literally just godhome 2, as it's canon that godseeker travels through the world looking to attune with more gods monksilly

Idk why people hate arenas

It's just more combat situations to use your abilities in

gentle cedar

pantheon but ||crust king khann has 8 arenas no shortcuts||

gentle cedar

||like hunter's march forcing you to fight void touched ants in act 3 to get past an area they've already been able to access most the game, which is what some of my friends didn't like||

#

since yk it was kinda not needed ||especially given the rest of far fields did that but on a less forced scale anyway||

opal totem
#

I didn't mind that one, ||act 3 already kinda lacks content so an extra mandatory encounter wouldn't hurt||

gentle cedar
#

speaking from hearing other people's opinions, it's genuinely just because of the placement for that specific arena ||since a lot of act 3 is already a drag according to a few of my friends and is just hype moments and aura||

#

idk i genuinely just think arenas are hated specifically for the placement and not for the difficulty

clever furnace
#

time for some quick fun monksilly

gentle cedar
#

||by the time people reach act 3, they have done nothing but continuously fought arena after arena whether by exploration or picking up stuff they need, so i understand the general dislike. they're just sick of them by then||

opal totem

||It's more of a general lack of content I dislike about act 3, fighting same enemies but voided in same areas isn't as fun as completely new area||

is steel soul the canon route because you dont die

consider the ||silk soar secret over styx's web thing where there's various masks in display, and the needolin dialogue where he's considering if he should serve or be feared||

||lorewise, masks can outright change a bug's personality||

its not a personality change

they are used to either enhance or supress a personality

its just a slider

Silksong town ranking (postgame spoilers):
||6) Pilgrim’s rest, barely even counts but I guess it does
5) Survivor’s camp, a nice worldbuilding detail and it’s good to know a lot of bone bottom survived
4) Bone bottom, it’s a great starting point and I love the way it cycles between repaired and destroyed throughout the game
3) Songclave, a really nice place in the midst of the citadel, plus sherma.
2) Bellhart, feels the most like a ā€˜main’ town, certainly nice to just exist in mid game, and shows just how bad the void is in act 3

  1. FLEATOPIA, YOU HAVE THE FLEAS, YOU HAVE THE FLEA GAMES, YOU HAVE A PLACE TO ESCAPE THE DARKNESS OF ACT 3, IT IS FLEATOPIA, IT IS A UTOPIA, IT IS PERFECTION (Wish sherma visited though to make it 11/10)||
