how many without any cutscene atlases though
I only got cogflies at the very end of the game when I was grabbing all of the stuff I had missed for 100%
i barely used tool 
I don't use tool 
consumable scary
the main case where I recall using tools was during Last Judge, to deal ranged damage while she was doing one of the attacks that prevented me from getting close
they’re kinda either pointless or overpowered
Took the computer a good few mins to dowland the zip contaning her atleases
Longpin was useful for the fire wall spin one
not only that, their feedback is trash 💥
thought
like, you can just throw billion poisoned tacks and sting shards and kill lugoli immediately
For comparason the knight had like 5 atleases while hornets is like double that amount
parrying enemy projectiles should make them be launched back in more cases
i think the tool cap should be heavily reduced if that was the case
rn all that gets knocked back is like, the bells in choral chamber
all a death revert would affect is grinding, it doesnt interact with the battles themselves in any way
so I really dont get that perspective
it just seems like suffering for suffering's sake
but in other cases, throwing things would barely do any additional damage 
you can dump all your tools with less cost than using them a little each attempt
iirc just using two middle of the road red tools at max gives you like 1000dmg that is very safe
encouraging more tool use seems like a Good thing to me
true
they're a bit underutilized by most players out of The Gamer's fear of running out of a resource
so just dumping tools kills a lot of bosses outright since you get crafting kits and tools pouches before needle upgrades
tbh, the only good fight with tools was probably bell eater. volt vessels are perfect for this fight and actually feel nice to use here
i think tool use should be more integrated into the standard combat loop since it plays seperately from most tools

I don't wanna dump tools and win for free though
I think tools work really well as a ranged thing, and the game could've done more to encourage that style of gameplay
melee when you can, tools when you cant
i think tools should be cd or charge based but resourceless or something like that
Like tc put it themselves, the game would be playing itself
maybe you can craft tools in real time but it leaves you vulnerable?
still using shards
so you cant just dump all of your tools at once but you spread them out across the battle and are encouraged to use them
but make shards less of an issue on their own
kinda want more fights with clearly good reasons to use tools lol
if you dont reduce the cap theres no reason to
bell eater is hard to hit normally, but volt vessels perfectly hit them
I did find it very useful on Last Judge, there's a lot of downtime with some of her attacks where it's nice
i played through the entirety of the game with architect and i only used the craft bind once
and that was because i had excess silk during the lost lace transition
oh also, pinstress probably good too
. it felt pretty consistent to use 45° angled volt vessels in this fight
bola voltvessels are hype though
cogflies are hard to actually count though
since they are basically passive damage
without any input
wdym
cogflies are actually not that crazy anymore
most other tools have a good amount more total damage than them
yeah, but again, i can just put cogflies and focus on hitting with needle
so most of the time i use cogflies when i wouldn’t use tools otherwise 
just a bit of additional damage really
, even if not the highest of the tools
i use them on reaper and architect and witch
The only red tools I used were curveclaw, threefold pin and bolt vessels
are tacks still broken
How does one get curveclaw?
Its found in hunters march
Isn't there an upgrade for it
Yeah its act 3 only
you have to ||visit visit the practice room with ants above bellway and hit all the things with it||
interesting that curveclaw of all tools can be upgraded
a shame that bell beast is allergic to hanging out
they incessantly thump her feet if you're in the vicinity to pressure you to keep moving or pick a destination
*trobbio >:( /silly
I think its morelike a "pay attention to me" since it generally happens when you go afk
weavelight may not be so bad in act 1
since it acts like a silk heart, it gets you halfway through a skill cast by just not being in combat
and while in combat, it accelerates the first silk strand regen, acting as egg of flealia if you keep your silk low
strike twice, cast, repeat, it's been pretty alright on general exploration
though by act 2 there's options with better utility
small consolation if you're tryna get a bind though
Comment from DeusDosTanques:
Sherma is never getting his medicine degree at this rate

also fun fact: sherma's bells and her singing have really different bpms, meaning sherma is actually a professional singer to be able to hit his bells perfectly whilse singing at a lower bpm
Garama
guys am i ready for savage beastfly steel soul i've beaten him with base needle beast crest with no tools or silk skills
only issue is i have full masks and spool
gg savage beastfly 1 with fully evolved hunter, no heal, no tools, no silk skills, no cling grip, with 10 masks and 18 spool fragments
oh and of course base needl
this gotta be enough right?
also just for fun i beat cogwork dancers and trobbio on fully evolved hunter, no tools or silk skills or cling grip and base needle
which i mean speedrunners do that already(nah they upgrade their needles) but still :v
oh wait fully evolved hunter's just op lmao
But with all 3 silkhearts it's a cast and if you're willing to wait a bit it's another cast
Doesn't fully evolved hunter only get reached after every crest?
yes
im using pantheon of pharloom mod
Oh
Broken vessel, beat it though, and now I have monarch wings AAAAAA
I also beat elderbug hu YAAAAY
I made it to the spirits glade
Which one do I fight first
its 9 entire seconds to go from 0 to full
and excluding the first one since you can usually regen that with or without it going more than 2.5s without attacking usually means you could have gotten a needle hit or would be able to wait an extra 1s that would cause regen without weavelight
Found out it doesn't matter💔
@pearl oracle voltvessel tech
apparently all voltvessel balls use the same timer so you can wait for one to be about to explode and throw a new one to have it trigger early
also this is probably obvious but i just found out you can jump to throw voltvessel spears at a longer range
do they carry movement momentum? or is it just the simple factor of it being done from higher up
oh it's peak
each ball deals 60 damage
so this is like huge
180 dmg with 3 balls hit
its 40 damage per one i thought
remmeber seeing in a video that it's 60 but even if it's 40 it's really good
voltvessels is just amazing tbh
because of you i started using it more
and i can say i love it now
its my favorite tool
spear is 17+6(10) and ball is 2(5+4(10)) iirc
The nest consumes
why is your text tilted what does it mean

Team cherry please make the next hollow knight a horror game
it means i am fronting because we are a system
Holy shit I thought I was gonna fall into a boss but it's just a hot spring.. oh my God don't do that to me team cherry :(
The most deepnest has been rn is absolutely fucking terrifying
Okay nosk is absolutely terrifying
Chat am I onto something or on something? (End of Act 2 soilers)
Cant believe my art is so good its making people cry
Well the art is good but I don't like the things happening in it
Wdym theyre hugging
I don't like what you think
What do you think I think
Are you thinking what im thinking you are thinking that I am thinkin?
I don't like..... You):<
Rude
Bleh
i don’t like you think
Wtf
you’re supposed to be a pure vessel
THIS IS SO PEAK
||new headcanon for whats happening in the abyss before hornet gets there|| silksong
oh we're in silksong thread
awooo :3
can’t 
radiance is a dream entity, but gms is physical
What if radiance gets an vessel like nightmares heart and she makes out with gms like that
tbf, both effectivly get nommed into the black goo of death, i don t think either exists in pchysical nor dream state anymore
who’s more difficult, the hollow knight or grand mother silk? 
Thk
on one hand, thk has actual attacks, on other hand, gms can actually kill you if you mess up a lot
Hk by far
Two for the first phase and uh
Gms buff dlc when
Actually four for the second phase
Lost gms when
Hk also has cooler lore
I mean the number of attacks dont really make a boss hard ig
Traitor lord had like 5 and a lotta people struggled with him
GMS was just a whiny tantrum baby even more then the radiance
Yeah but for gms it doesn't get all that much faster and the 3-4 attacks are easily predictable
Traitor Lord just murders you if you lose your focus for a second
Didn't traitor lord have like 3 attacks
And didn't people struggle mainly because it's one of few double damage bosses
Uhh sprint jump mantis thing and ground shockwaves
Also savage beastfly 2 also has like 3 attacks and a lotta people are traumatized by it lol
Savage beastfly is faster then gms
Beastfly has more shit going on there than gms
And has a smaller arena that happens to remove the floor
for me silksong was much easier then hk, expecially late game, it was only semi difficult at first, while hk just got harder and harder
Yea thats like what I wanna say I wish gms was kinda faster
Mayble like absrad speed
You have the lack of floor, the ads, the lack of floor 2 and the beastfly itself
While in gms you have gms and maybe one static hazard
yeah i wish gms had a boost, for a higher being, and such mystic thing, she was bloody easy
Gms was really just [pins] [five second break] [pins] [slash] [five second break] and with that ginamornormus enemy to hit
for me gms was easier then lace 2, which feels wrong
Yeah, "she's hk of silksong" doesn't really work because she's a god
her pins are a walmart version of radiences blades
real I think I first tried gms in my first playthrough
i have died like once or twice to gms, but mostly cause i had no upgrades, didn t even have wings
I think I third tried gms?
Yeah karmelita was straight up harder then gms and also in the stats karmelita has more hp so in her prime she was stronger then gms
Khann was harder then gms
I think gms has like 1000 hp 
Cogwork dancers were harder then gms
Karmelita has like 1500
karm, isn t that difficult per say, but yeah i think gms should actually be a force to be recoked with, but karm was a normal bug, but would make sens for karm to be harder as its in act 3
i cannot say as khann was also painfully easy
But harder
i am a bit suprised why are weavers in this game so easy, like we fight 3 of them in this game, all of them are really not that hard
Yeah but I kinda wish she was like the last judge of act 2 like I stuggled way more with her
Nyleth was harder then gms shakra was harder then gms first sinner was harder then gms
gms is a joke
Also pre-nerf silkstrom destroyesd gms lol
but for me nyleth and shakra were easier then gms
tbf for me thats the hardest boss of act 3
Bell eater is actually a higher beign confirmed
Markoth is a higher being
if anything bell beast
Ih Markoth
i really hope the dlcs to silksong will make it much more challenging
hes so evil that even the transparent png I downloaded of him for reference was transp-aren't
four and also he just walks into you sometimes
I died more times on lace1 then gms
(kind old art)
And I died more times on thk then gms
i wish one of the dlcs, makes gms harder, like her in her prime when she made weavers or something?
Dlc that makes gms spawn savage beastfly ads
tbf that would be terrifying
Grandermotherersilker
I died more times on broken vessel then gms
I died more times on mantis Lords then gms
I died more times on hornet 1 from the first game then gms
i actually really like savage beastfly i think its a fun fight
Which one
both of them
Mods kill that guy
so lace finally gets a father figure
I died more times on false knight
I wouldn't mind second one if the ads weren't so tanky and basically require spending a silk skill
No actually two moms
oh wait radiance is a she?
tbf, story wise gms is terrifying, in game its funny basiclly: gets bullied then gets yoinked by the void, and just gets eaten kinda, shes meant to be the big bad evil thing here, but
Yeah radiance is female
for me second one was easier, but possibly due to me having all the upgrades
nvm ig lace still remains fatherless
She's a pathetic excuse for the big bad evil in story the radiance felt like a way better villan (and creepier)
I had all the upgrades I could get and still lost steel soul to it
The unraveled was NOT enough body horror since that's all there is for skong
nah i dont think gms is the ultimate "big bad evil" of pharloom
also for having infinite silk, she did not use a lot of silk related powers
oh, tbf its a steel soul, those are ab it scary
She used allat silk to summon pale nails like broskie didnt even bind
well we can t fight capitalism sadly
well technically we foght high halls arena
Absolutely lost grander mother silk
She has anyrad speed 6000 health spawns voided savage beastflies that also spawns voided enemies every 3 seconds deals 3 mask of damage and has an attack that straight up kills you twice (so you lose all of ur mone)
and the conductors are the ones causing the citadel capitalism
fair
Radiance gave much better body horror then whatever whiteward was
[Infected crossroads and the hive]
what do you mean absolutely lost gms? does she not have a gps?
for me whiteward was worse in that case
Phones dont exist in hk universe dumbass amh
she should've played her own needolin at these lumaflies
could she use her silk with two cups as a phone?
those things are basically gps
hmmmm
Whiteward for me felt like sure the aesthetic was spooky like "hospital where inhumane experiments went on" and the two silk husks but other then that's kinda it whilst the hive equipping hiveblood and dreamnailing the hivehusks get me some uneasy two-three words and infected crossroads just felt bad to be in (in a good way)
Whiteward ended too soon
I barely had time to realize what kind of place I'm in and I'm already thrown into underworks
many places feel too small in skong 💔
Wisp thicket dlc when
Grimm troupe 2
hornet is significantly bigger and faster than the knight so places are less full with stuff
I am still impressed at how packed hallownest's rooms are sometimes
Apparently there's an empty purposeless ledge in the coral tower that used to lead to an extended version of voltnest, myabe since it's still there they plan to expand it in the future?
i'd say that the only place that felt properly big was choral chambers but like, duuuh, it's the citadel 
They should just add a bunch of geo deposits and soul totems across pharloom
Silk totems
No that'd be useful
no just soul totems that do nothing for hornet 
Ok you can add one at the start of act 3
oh really? I know about the ledge. Didnt know it was part of voltnest. How did you come across this info?
A reddit comment that looked trustworthy because another comment agreed with it
Apparently it was in a map shown at ACMI event
so is the hollow knight
around the same amount as plasmified zalgo
that one was so hard for me
I don’t think they’re infected
Nah they are
Quite honestly L
No S+++++++++ tier for big flea
Depends on if vog is at bottom or top
top
well actually ima rank all the non kratt fleas rq
there ya go
awoooo :3
awoooo
then w
Driving on my bellbeast right after a nectar (wip)
Hey that bump is shaped like a lace
i fucking love failing steel soul
my stress is spiking I feel so awesome...
wtv then, go my doom chain
has anyone ever got excited about getting a beast shard
gms would be almost a good parent if not sending phantom to bilewater for zero reason

And also spinning phantom to be a slave to the exhaust organ
you guys are missing the mass slavery of her children smh smh
you guys are PATHETIC
not true fans
you should EXPLODE
/lie
/silly
/joking
Paleking however is a wonderful parent
So wonderful he gave the literal figment of darkness a will and emotions
Driving on my bellbeast right after a nectar
Where do I Upgrade my nail In hollow knight again?
nailsmith at leftmost city of tears
basically just go to ground level right above the waterways entrance and go left
So there is a theory that when you die and wake up on a bench in both games you aren't actually dying and that's just the knight or hornet going through possible ways they could survive and stuff which makes sense since not only does Mr mushroom hint at it but the pale king had a precognitive type ability we don't know much about which could be this
"Oh dang man I'm finna die at that spot lemme put all my money into a cocoon rq"
Jiji describes the shade as a regret, so at least for the knight I think it would be the regret of whatever actions it took to ‘die’ at that point
As for hornet, IDK maybe silk is needed for her foresight, which forms into a cocoon at the point it ends
i think foresight theory is fun, but not every mechanic needs a lore explanation. Dying and respawning doesnt need an explanation, i feel.
the Shade mechanic does naturally lead to respawn being an in-universe thing though
not sure i follow
it's specific enough to feel diegetic 
not a very strong argument, but it seems like the intent is treating it as diegetic
they way i see it if Knight dies, they leave a shade, their regrets manifested from void within them, that part is canon. Knight then coming back to life, somehow regenerating their shell, waking up on a bench and then going to kill their shade to recover is just gameplay because TC wanted a corpse run mechanic
wonder if the rhinogrund got stuck here by accident or if it was purposely locked up
wait I think I do have a theory, rhinogrunds are rare enemies only found either caged here, on the memorium or one in act 3
speaking of memorium, that may be reason why it's locked in here, as a means of preserving it
what's surprising is that the cage is well stacked with "pillows" (we see those things on the ground be used for laying down multiple times), a ornate light source and those storage things
If that's the one in Far Fields, its special needolin dialog implies it's been tortured, so I'd assume it was purposely locked up.
too bad that beasts don't care about commodities 
does beast standard attacks swing faster than hunter? I could swear it does by a bit
4% faster iirc
bruh
tells you how much I use hunter that I can notice the ever so slight faster swing
@dense wasp do you by chance have the swing delay values in seconds?
no but theres probably some youtube video with it
wish silk skill damage scaled with needle damage buffs
the thing about my build right now is that the damage compared to my needle attacks is noticeably weaker by comparison
I am doing 155% base needle damage, but silkspear is still 300%, not 155% * 3
aka, silkspear damage is reduced to 2x instead
I thought it would, that sucks but ig spells also didn t
the one time I feel silk skills become worth to always use over needle attacks is when I finally get volt filament which is much further ahead in progression
Basiclly endgame
such is the barbed life 🚬
volt filament can be gotten around mid act 2 easily
i forget if you need clawline or clawline + faydown but you can get those back to back
Oh, i thought the thingy in act 3 was needed, my bad then
idk if was intended that you need silk soar or not but its not that hard of a skip if it is unintended
Ah good to know
awoooooo
/silly

chat spare or kill
i would owe so much money its too fun to do
I’m enjoying some quality bilewater time since I need to complete hunter’s journal
all roads lead to bilewater
all sinners roads 
chat has decided to remain silent
my choice isss spare obv
pilby told me his name in this attempt 
Since I’m almost already there, I’m headed to fleatopia
yippee act 2 again
finally I can start playing the videogame again without falling asleep
:3
performed one of the juiciest last judge quick kills of my time 🤤
I hate the hunter’s journal grind
It's especially bad if you forget to fill out some of the specific creatures when entering Act 3.
Who knew those normal jumping pilgrims just almost entirely disappear outside of a single location.
(And their spawn is randomized in said single location)
I'm free.
it is intended for act 2, Nuu has diaoluge hinting on its location. And then goes there when ypu defeat the boss, which cant happen in act 3
Huh, where's the hint dialogue
it was more bearable in skong for me
Oh! thats what descending dark does
Beat hornet 2nd encounter with grubsong, soul catcher and soul eater.. And I spammed the FUCK out of D-dark and won with ONE mask left
Jesus fuck...
Nuu just tells you at some point after her wish
Can anyone find a non-blurry pic of this
They are allergic to being alive
Natural selection
Also add that one big dead one
from where Hornet gets that one shaman crest
9/10 snails like being dead
Who's the crystal guy
That's ehhh the Shaman that's trapped in the crystal mound
Inside a big crystal
They want you to free them if you dream nail them but when you break the crystal they explode into a new power up
how they get in there though
Crystal guardian mayhaps?
Also is it just me or is there more clovers in the memorum after killing the green prince
eeeh... maybe they were there before and you didn't realize
don't see why would that be a thing
The crystal is kinda alive or filled with the Radiances light
Maybe they sensed the Shaman
Also where's the beeg moss grub
It is a thing!
yea the crystals make host of bugs looking at every crystal peak enemy
but encase them whole?
Well we see clovers sprout from either the cogwork dancer or the green prince (maybe both? Idk I'll check) and verdania was ordered to be forgotten for growing outside of it's exhibit
Cough
no but we were talking about memorium's clovers
Ohhhhhhh
:B
That i don't know
Would be cool tho
Would mean anything connected to Verdania is growing back
There's clovers near the entrance of the marrow exhibit now
Those def weren't here before
Dlc where Verdania extends through the kingdom
Mirroring how the Plasmium is extending too

Maybe the Green Prince was holding onto the past so hard he was preventing Verdania from regrowing?
Bro Hornet, i miss my boyfriend so much i'm keeping my kingdom from regrowing
Why are the massive mossgrubs so bulbus
Experiments
Ask the citadel
Huge and soft
a fantastic combination
-Hornet silksong
I am 3 spool fragments away from being able to bind twice
Random theory: what if whatever heart is not used for the ritual, but is still extracted, allows the part of the kingdom it represents to ‘regrow’?
Hornet is into fat bitches (real)
So sands of karak and blasted steps would become coral gorge
MENACE
YES
We don't say that we say "Huge and soft, a fantastic combination"
yes I know 2 languages turkish and english
And a few words in german
Hunter’s march and Far Fields would become much more civilized (via ants), and Shellwood would probably grow more vibrant and less dangerous
And verdania would regrow
Make your choice.
Coral gorge is obvsly the best option
Hornet and Karmelita
95% of bugs are gay
The citadel is polluting the water, making the bugs gay
She so perfect
The 5% is Cornifer and Iselda
Waohhh cool art
And the White lady and pale king
All of the above
Just pale king, White lady is Pan 100%
Look at this one
Pale king is sawsexual
Ok, but it's a straight relationship
Iselda and Cornifer might be bi, anyone might be bi for all we know 
Today I learned that widow is called "spinner" in game atleases
he must be part of the cogwork core engineer team before deciding to move to hallownest to persue his dream of being a ruler
Woag
I call her wife
widow
Ermmmm shes called spinner in games files ermm
Spinner? she spin me round round baby round round
🔥
Widow posting when

Widow has arms
for some reason idk why
Cause the other weavers don't seen to have them, unless they are just kinda hidden all the time
I know theres the theory that she came from a drapemite but that doesn't make sense with what she knows
and with the flashback we see when we kill her which i asume is a memory of hers
Window still follows the six limbs thing all weavers have going on, maybe when she had her silk cut off they also made two of her legs into arms for whatever reason?
Experiments from the Citadel?
I really like the theory that she ended up like that because she was faithful to Mother silk still and the other weavers fucked her up so she wouldn't be an obstacle
what is that weaver spire doing in the cauldron
I imagine it was there before the Citadel started to dig so deep
sinner still has arms in her melee attacks, so weavers probably just hide them somehow
so is it canon that hornet has foresight like the pale king? if so what's the evidence for it
Does cornifers bitch ass have shade cloak??? 😭
Imagine we find the cut content from the trailer in like three years because they weren't actually cut, but just incredibly well hidden
Cornifer is higher beign duhh
Love how quirrel does nothing but jump around in the uumuu fight🔥🔥
This fight is like 1000% impossible
Does bro know
chat I radiant whispering vaults arena am I cool
Oh okay that was pretty easy
But how do I get to the dreamer??? Am I supposed to swim in acid???
Dont you have crystal dash?
I do
ig not then
There's no whispering vaults arena silly
uhhh
the arena you need to complete to enter whispering vaults
the one that plays the same music as the forum
I got it
No
Radiant silksong or you will be silked
glass soul eventually™
Alright, got all 3 dreamers, and all 3 spells upgraded, next time I suppose I fight the hollow knight
hivesteel obtained
hopefully I don't throw it away anytime soon
last upgrade left is hunter 2
lol
casual radiant s.beastfly 2
Boo you lost fractured

That's not very nice
radiant raging conchfly
why did tc name the wisp thicket enemies "burning bugs" 😭
mad uncreative name compared to other enemies
pretty crazy that barbed + hunter 2 allows you to get a damage bonus as strong as fury of the fallen was on the first game, a total of 75% needle damage
it was 65% before but they really felt the need to buff hunter 
and without the risk of instantly dying upon taking a hit
Hornet is so confused at them she doesn't even know wtf is she supposed to call them/silly
fucking ???? BURNING ?????bugs???what????
not so tough now are ya? ARE YA?! /ref
Guys I gotta break the news to you alot of the cut content probably all of it will not be coming back in dlc. Alot of it if you think about it makes sense AND the only reason cut content came back in hollowknight was because they had not as much money and time while team cherry had basically a infinite budget and could make silksong come out whenever they wanted so no stuff like the coral place probably won't be coming back. (Besides the steel soul stuff that probably will have a dlc or something)
bleh, let tc become old valve 2 🙏 I pray for either more bangers or banging stuff added to their bangers
Basically the dlc that have the biggest possibility because I say so is
- Go back to hallownest and fix stuff with needoline thingy
- Lifeblood dlc (they might not wanna repeat but also they might wanna add to that lore)
- A boss rush thing (not the godseeker s because I doubt they would wanna do that again)
- Secret fourth option
my dlc ideas
Hidden Dreams 2
The Grimm Troupe 2
Lifeblood 2
Godmaster 2

so peak 🔥
The saddest part of that is alot of the fandom think they are just gonna do that
one part of the fandom is always gonna grip the things they already love
I myself would not criticize any recycled content if they can give it a nice fresh coat of paint
I do think my most wanted dlc is hornet going back to hallownest and fixing stuff but again they probably wanna make fully new stuff
I only care about a boss replay dlc and more Grimm troupe
godhome 2 is certainly one of the top priorities
They won't show more Grimm troupe because that lore is pretty fleshed out and there are like only 1 or 2 questions left about it and those questions are questions you ask about anything in the franchise
Honestly I want a grimmchild that doesn't use up silk
I doubt there will be a godhome like godseekers but there probably will be a bossrush
AI will take over the world you say?
i mean with pogo storing you technically can skip him(and literally everything else in act 2)
Golly time to watch a good old preformance
cant believe gemini fell for a silkpost
That's why I don't listen to overviews
to be fair it is mirroring what the source linked at the end of the paragraph is saying, so, blame the source 😉
no blame gemini for poor conduct of research and failing to double-checking and cross referencing sources with other reliable sources
true
Shouldve just used sarcasm against am in IHNMAIMS
I was joking there btw, but what ure saying is very true
skarrsinger karmelita 😭
Is that the stolas game or something
barbed steel soul never
congratulations on skong for beating me and proving once and for all that I'm not a gamer
For real this time, I am moving on, I can not bear another early game again
one way or another I'll have to find something else to spend my time with
Are you dead yet
If not are you wearing warding bell
no I do not have warding bell
and save file's deleted already
Just lost 900k geo in the hive
what could a bug possibly need 900k geo for
Grinding
like
For how long? 
normally???
/ not having anything to spend it on
I dint spend a lot of geo often
how many hours do you have on hk to have played the game so much that you accumulate 900k geo tho 🥹
I also had 1350 in the bank, had some relics, and got help from grubfather
no deepnest farming strat either???
I have 43
Also gathering swarm

At what point are you at in your save file?
gathering swarm doesnt give you 900k geo
Hive
900k is enough to buy literally everything 
It can if you're patient enough
its enough to buy literally everything A HUNDREN FOLD
And I lost it because of fucking bees💔
you do NOT only have 43 hours on the game like wtf
I do
it takes less time to do Low TE% 😭
Including the unbreakable charms
I used help from grubfather and selling relics and the bank to get me around 2k geo
right
And the rest was done with grinding
wheres the other uh
you got 898k geo
from grinding
and 2k from grubfather and relics
🥹
Yeah
Are you absolutely sure it was 900k and not 90k?

richest bug in hallownest
Several times the gorgeous husk in the city of tears
Now I have 52 geo...
alot of gorgoues husks
The deflation in Hallownest is going to go crazy
Tryna beat hive knight so I can get hiveblood charm specifically so I can buy the notch
I kinda want the proof just to see how absurd the GUI becomes
I DAMN NEAR HAD 10K GEO😭
1

Almost 100k
The numbers are not adding up


unfortunately, hive is pretty linear until you open up the backward paths
That.. Doesnt answer my question.. but thanks?
Oh sorry! The only shortcut I can think of is the one with the mask shard
How do you get to it
Ohh
I hate the hive so goddamn much
Oh my LORD bruh
Lets make the runback like hella annoying even with shortcut
Peak game design
Honestly
Every game should do that
All this to be able to get a fucking charm for a damn charm notch
Fuck this game
I mean, there’s other charms out there
Skill issue
Hiveblood isn’t really that good of a charm, unless you’re doing a… specific challenge
Okay.
Ok
ok?

şğç
Hiveblood is one of the few charms I know how to get/know the name of, and I don't wanna watch a yt video explaining how to get charms I already have
Have you started Grimm troupe yet?
No?
Idk how to do that
And besides
Looks harder than the hive
Its behind a hidden wall in howling cliffs
It’ll give you that charm you’re looking for for free
And even an additional charm notch
Alright time to smack walls for 30 minutes
It’s pretty obvious, as it’s in that one cave with the lore tablet iirc
I don't remember where that was
Right under where Cornifer was
Alright
Anyway, I eeps
,
I sure do hope a forgotten god doesn’t slip into my dreams and convinces me to trade my mind for strength 
Okay I did that and all that happened was a torch lit up as creepy circus music played
Cut First sinner interaction? This looks like hornet is tryna bind her and I dont think this happened ingame did it?
Binding did happen, just wasn't that violent
Ik
I smell new beta update
Fighting grimm, it's pretty fun
If you don't bow to him before the fight you're an evil person
I slap him before the fight
its not canon, i would argue
damn, you're a trooper though. i cant believe you decided to go for this long
An updated version of Hollow Knight: Silksong's Patch 4 (1.0.29120) is now live on the public-beta branch. This new version includes a Simplified Chinese fan translation provided by Team Cart Fix. Team Cart Fix's translation has been well received by the community. Their approach builds from elements of the original translation, retaining existi...
Beta Patchnotes
(they buffed a bit threadstorm so post-nerf damage doesn't fall as fast and it feels a bit better to extend it when possible)
Also now the same courier quests can't be given twice in a row (less RNG when going for all the quests)
"why Team cherry dont public all the changes /buffs-nerfs, like the architect crest nerf? " - Hollow Knight PFP
"because thats a horrible idea" - The Watcher 
They don't so youtubers have more content to make about the game
Watcher would hates that because then he can't have a watch on YT
How tf am I suppose to make a custom silksong skin with this bruv 💔
Five.hundred.folders
would be nice if they gave anything lol
courier quests should give something if you complete all tbh
Yep, the thousand folder files XD
It's a super long process if you want to resprite everything
Erughhhhh the knight from the og game had only like 230 folders 💔
Some are act2-locked so you could lose the reward if you don't do the ones that dissapear in act 3
just remove those as requirement if you dont get them tbh
like it happens with some act 2 things
then again it would most likely be a house thropy / memento
like all psalm cylinders
i think it would be nice
It would be interesting if they gave a tool idk
even if it was just that
Moff
Guys I have an awesome new idea,
Let the light into your mind
Hai -Seth

erm
why do people love Styx sm what am I missing
I dont mind him its just
people are so obsessed and I payed no attention to him ????
(this picture specifically is amazing though)
Because silk eater
And did you hear his needleoin sfx
how is Lace supposed to look like a child according to the caretaker if she doesn't even resemble a bug
what exactly are the signs of adulthood in bugs
Idk maybe mandibles
you could put a pair of comically large eyes on any inanimate object and people would associate it with baby and cuteness
bugs would probably have similar things
Hii chat, I beat steel soul 100% yesterday
just wanted to share that with cool people server
GOOD JOOOOOOOBBBBBBBBBBBBB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -Seth
ty, i was so nervous going into the lost lace fight 🥹 i won tho 

THATS A HUGE ACOMPLISHMENT -Seth
Now comes the hardest challenge tho..

Trying to come up with what to do now 
I have gotten all achivemnets so i have nothing left 🥹
(silksong is so peak)
No upgrades/tools/bindings -Seth
Thats going to take forever
(maybe thats a good thing tho)
Its fun tho
-Seth
maybe ill try it
otherwise i do wanna try a mod i have seen 
-double boss mod- 
I have no idea how to actually mod skong tho
Im sure its not too hard -Seth
Maybe use a
Carving knife

maybe i uhhh dont have a carving knife...
i literally had the idea, bought a pumpkin and have zero plans on what to do next
also this is so cool
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WooxgFEcXb4
Very quick lil update thingy
that was WAY too close
Fucking SOBBED over quirrels death
Seth is the reincarnation of quirrel trust
Please
:C
Chat
Imagine...
Lost radiance
gaydown cloak
This would be terrifying
Imagine fighting through silksong pantheon when BAM you're fighting a harder absolute radiance with void attributes 
gay grip
lost gayce
gaysinger karmelita
no its fire
oh thank you
grand mother gay
gayhart
gaymond and zaza
gay the great
gay docks
gay fields
weavnest gaytla
gays' march
i have to go ill be back for more hollow knight silkgay soon 
choral gaymbers
Mount gay
Mount Gay vs Mount Trans, who would win?
Isn't it weird that there are no roaches in bilewater
the fact I could see team cherry adding that should horrify me
There are small maggots, big maggots, overgrown roaches but no normal ones
They shoud add some
I finally hit 90% completion in my silksong save file today
(I killed ||Lost Lace|| and defeated TROOOOBBBIIIOOOO's emo phase)
I will never be free from skong
funniest fight in the world there
cant wait to see trobbio in zoteboat
Congrats on that
tyyyy deonn
whgat did i open the silksong thread to
Mount Trans is cooler
Wip fight theme for a Grimm troupe outcast oc I have :0
How was act 3 for ya?
pretty rough. the voided creatures were/are annoying. I hope they release an update/dlc where pharloom becomes un-voided after fighting you know who
ending was certainly interesting, though I think the flower in the cutscenes looks terrible
Act 4 isn't real
sadly
Idk I don't think it'd be that fun
There's not much else to do after the conflict is over
it hurts me and makes me so sad to see all the NPCs all sad and hopeless asking for us to do something about the ||voiding||, when we've already dealt with it
you could help rebuild bellhart, help the survivor's camp, maybe a couple more bosses in opened up caves
trobbio part 3
I heard theorys that verdania could come back but we can only wait and see
And then theres fleas
The end of first sinners fight says "accept" so did first sinner go "oh well you win I'll let you have this skill."
trueee
I still have to do that wish
yeah I think so lol
loved that fight
felt so much more godly then fighting god
Fair, theres plenty for you to do i assume
Oh
like yeah, hunter's journal, but imo thats just long instead of a lot to do
I assume tools and mementos
oh yeah trueee
I need to find out what im missing
If you know you're missing 10% you've already gotten that
Unless you mean progress trackers
yeah I got the farseer
I know im missing things and what type of thing they are, but not what it is, or where
three mask shards, five tools, two wishes, one boss, one spool fragment, one memory locket, one needle upgrade, 12 unique creatures arent in the journal, and numerous unfinished entries into the journal
it least, thats what I think im missing
I think grindle has some of those tools
and i feel like i know atleast one mask you probably are missing, and probably one tool
the one in the top left of it?
kinda?
one of the first things I did when I got faydown cloak was to go grab it lol
ye
how many mask shards have you gotten from the mountain?
know one of the creature entries is up there
not sure lol
theres another one, for which you ||need act 3 ability||
wishes you know how to find,
bell babies my beloved
i am curious which tools you are missing
so adorable
indeed
I knowwwwww, so cute!
a few from grindle I think
yee
also scary that babys have strong enough shell, that you can t even damage them
maybe
damn, only need to buy one tool from grindle, that idea goes out of the window
trueee
ah
ohhhhhh reminds me, I need to check the architect, I dont think i've bought them out yet
i feel like seeing how thick the silk around bell beast was, and that it regenerated shows its stronger then it seems
oh, yeah prob a bit there too
well if you need help, you can allways send which tools you have and such
ty, I should be able to find them though, hopefully
I do actually have a question
ye?
awooooooo
can you please tell me if there is any difference in prices for shell shard bundles between bellhart, architect, and forge daughter? i'd check but im about to start climbing the mountain again lol
i am pretty sure theres no diffrence in price
awooo
awoooooooo
Are you just going for 100% or full completion?
Memory lockets and journal entries aren't needed for 100%
good to know, interesting
i still need one thing for full completing, but god is it hard
i'll probably try to go to full completion
I said it's hard and then first tried it
If it's the thing I'm thinking of
guardian memento
Hornet would call this the perfect creature: huge and fluffy
Mount Gay (Fay) vs Mount Trans (Celeste), who would win?
and I would agree
Don't forget, she also dislikes aggresive ones, so is even better

it is awesome
We should kill it to see hornet's opinion from journal entry
Mount Celeste is more magical, also trans is cool. mount fay has the Perfect Creature and a crazy mask maker. I think i'd choose Mount Celeste
It’s a draw
sad seeing all the broken servitors
ohhhh is it up around ||brightvein?||
i am unsure where that is rn sorry
||yes ||
ah yeah, I got that one I think
you probably have them all then 
ah, welp goodluck then finding the rest of things
all but three I think, sadly
thanks deon, see you?
do you have all the act 3 exclusive ones?
i am still here, just not sure which masks you could be missing, can i see your map?
oh wait lemme spoil that
I can zoom in as needed (sorry for the double ping)
no clue, sadly

can you zoom in a bit on left side of greymoor?
and no worries i don t mind pings

just checkign if you found wisp
it was the last area i found, and one of the last tools i ever got
can i also see ur quest list 
the easiest way to see what miku could be missing, is to see the missing tools, but yeah the masks might be a bit of a problem
hmm oki
i never found the quest on the right, huh
literally just killed voided savage beastfly 2 slagony
I just used architects + wispfire lantern and to whittle it down with minions lol. I kept hearing about it being the worst thing on earth so I just kept putting it off until now. also those little fuckers it spawns are demonic
yeah they are, but tbh i also found savage 2 easy, i did it in act 2 tho
yeah, im mainly worried about the mask shards and the spool fragment, the tools I htink'll prob be at 12th architect (other then that one at grindle)
fair
huh. I only seem to have one thing at architect's to buy. which means im also missing a craftmetal
thats so funny lmao. she has an affinity for sawblades. gee, wonder why
like father like daughter 
trueeee
the weavers also like sawblades as well I think, based on those Horrors down in underworks, and all the cogs in cogwork core
looks pretty sawblade for me
What if shawblades are actually a weaver thing
and when they moved to hallownest pk got the idea from em
maybe
I got the gist that they didnt all go to hallownest though, from that one map
Why did they go back though
wdym?
light, I wish multibinder healed your muckmaggots with the first heal, and then healed you two masks in the second heal
Yeah it's on beta
o
i've been playing on the release version 🥹
Crazy mask maker vs Crazy grandma. Also both have weird mystic bird that gifts you double jump / dash
||grandma IS the bird|| smh
idk if thats /silly or /serious, its been a while and I never could fully complete celeste
bruhhhh I need to kill 11 MORE TALLCRAWS evil evil evil
how are we supposed to find so many
Question: why is there only one Weavenest is hallownest but several in pharloom?
My two theories are:
They spent less time in hallownest so only had time to establish one
They established a single nest in deepnest since it was the only place in hallownest that didn't have an actual ruler that wasn't related to them
||Mask Maker IS the bird|| 
I assume both are correct
having a bunch of cogflies out is so fun. its like a flock of birds but for girls
Farloom is their homeland and they where clearly the most important authority figure outside of GMS, and it wasn't until everyone fled that Weavers as a whole where seen on other places
Hornet clay sculpture
I have been summoned, and in my very biased but also unbiased opinion, go fully complete celeste its peak 
Evil hornet be like: ||WAHS||

Never before has my jaw dropped so hard at something Hornet said. Bravo Team Cherry for writing ANY special dialogue for this circumstance, but holy. The Hornet being a terrible person memes maybe weren't memes all along.
