>deals 1 damage for most of its attack expect the ones you can hardly get damaged by if you know what you're doing>all attacks are fair and aren't completely unpredictable like the other bosses>is close to a benchwidow might be the first fair boss in this game and i am 8 hours in
I love how many fucking gimmicks each areas has now.City of Tears was memorable because of the atmosphere.But Deepnest was memorable because it's such a fuckfest of an area. Maybe Crystal Peaks too.Now almost every area in the game has that sort of shit now.I won't spoil it but there are certain areas in this game that will stick with me for a long time in the genre.
>>719959516Did I fucking hallucinate a weaver temple in Hollow Knight?I fucking swear I entered a temple full of those weavers dead back then in deepnest and then I couldn't ever find it again in that hellhole. I even saw a live one that fled from me spooky-style.Nice to see that those fuckhuge masks aren't hiding big heads.
>>719959516Games kinda short and not as intriguing as hollow knight huh? Idk if I’m tripping but the areas feel way more bland and uninteresting. Where’s all the secrets and mystery from the first game?
>>719959804It was hidden behind a double secret area
the adds in this keep fucking me in the ass and the walk back is annoying. Its like you dont even have a chance to learn the pattern of the adds before youre in a blender.
I looked at an ending, what I assume is true ending cutscene and now I’m wondering what the base ending is. Can anyone tell me?
>Still no idea how to break the various entrances like this oneIt's so fucking over.
>>719960087This was a really fucking fun fight. Just hyper focus on killing the adds immediately.They only take like 3 hits. Even faster if you use your silk storm.
FUCK YOUR ASTROTURFED AD CAMPAIGN.I WILL NOT PLAY YOUR WOKESLOP BUG LESBIAN GAME.FUCK YOU.FUCK YOUR MULTIMILLION DOLLAR SHILL ARMYFUCK FAGGOT GAMES
>>719960087i just used spike traps to massacre them. Also it kills its own helpers with the smash down
>>719959670Maybe im talking out my ass but I feel like 1s zones were more memorable. Greenpath, Fog Canyon, Crystal Peak, the mountain, City of tears. They all had such distinct aesthetics with very distinct music and very distinct enemies.So far the only zones in SS that had really stood out to me are Hunters March, mostly because it's such a kick in the nuts, and the underground bell place with all the lava.Everything else has been a grassy rocky area, a rocky grassy area, a rocky area, or a raining rocky bird area. I just got into sinners path and it's a literal shithole
>>719960271>Dev team is literally 3 guys in Australia>Million dollars What did he mean by this Also you aren't slick. I saw your early spam with AAA despite this being self published
>>719960087>claw attackdash back and forth with each punch>minion attackeach one dies with 3 hits, if one dies she's gonna come back making killing the other one more annoying, so while she's not there hit each of the minions twice. kill one, and then quickly kill the other>the log spawn attackyou shouldn't really break them because she will break them if she does the punch attack, unless it's in the center, in that case break themwatch for her fall each phase because it does the 2 mask contact damage like basically every boss in this game
>>719959516Fuck you, his diagonal bouncy balls dont deflect at angles that make sense. I didnt beat his 2nd phase through carefully avoiding anything. I panic hit him and killed him as fast as possible. I threw every boomerang I had at him. I chugged estus.
>>719960271you will eat out the bug
How do you get this fly by the organs?
Heh game because ez modo once I equipped the charm that lets me heal quicker.Get on my fucking level, scrubs.
>just trying to find a quick tutorial where the fuck the hidden ant vender in hunter's march is>get giga spoiled with maximum spoilers in the thumbnailI'm not even mad but damn, people really should be a bit more mindful.Anyway where the fuck is the ant vendor relative to the trapped bench?
Predict the first patch the game is gonna get>more rosary drops on act 1 enemies>removed double damage on hazards>bosses with bad corpse runs get slightly less healthI assume TC will do something based on feedback on difficulty
>>719960760In the room above it with the barrels, to the left there's a hidden path, iirc.
>>719959827It's like 50% bigger than HK
>>719960865Double damage on hazards and contact with bosses/enemies for the first act of the game at least. That's the only thing I'd really see them doing.Then it'd be a matter of adjusting specific bosses.>>719960914Thank you. Also don't go on youtube anon really.
>>719960985Like always I only rely on /v/ for guides when a game releases.It's surprisingly really solid and you can avoid a lot of spoilers by just focusing on your own comments.
>>719960865Reminder to disable auto patches.
test
how do I get to this area. no hidden wall at either entrance
563k players on. broke another record
>>719961114I'VE BEEN WONDERING ABOUT THE SAME THING IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS
am i ready for last judge?
>>719960865Fixing bugs and the shitty chink translation. I don't think they're going to make it easier. People complained about Hollow Knight being too hard too, and they didn't nerf anything.
>>719961270did you defeat the secret boss at the starter town? if not go there and rest on the bench for a minute
I think Im done with this game, the sister splinter and the boss before it were annoying. I think anything beyond this is gonna be bad for my mental health.
>>719960865They aren't gonna change anything, Cherry never changed shit from HKUnless it's an actual bug or glitch. This will be the purest vision of the game they made.
>>719960442Fuck you shill. And fuck your ad campaign. Youve shit up the entire fucking internet just to shill your product.I WILL NOT PLAY THE LESBIAN BUG GAME FAGGOT!Next time spend your ad budget on a fucking game you goddamned turbonigger
>>719961432Okay.
the rematch against two of the moss mothers at the back of the spider temple where they call in like 50 caterpillars and turn the whole boss fight into a pogo fest was pretty fun for an obligatory tutorial boss rematch
>>719959516This is my wife. Say something nice about her.
>>719959516I beat this boss first try it is very telegraphed, so far even though they have been hard all the bosses are very well telegraphed.
>>719961309they balanced a few things in HK in the earlier days at release
The Mist is breaking me. It's like White Palace without checkpoints and also randomly impossible layouts because lmao
>>719961676U get 2 go up.
>>719961356you mean the 2 moss mothers?if so, then yea
>>719960865Just add a bench right before Last Judge, that's the only thing I need.
>>719961725>Summon clockwork bugs>They home and kill the ghosts while I chill and go about my wayLove these guys to bits.
>>719961791no if you sit on the bench in bone bottom after the skull tyrant quest his mate charges in for revenge
i miss fair attacks every single enemy has motion tracking projectile tracking attack tracking they constantly jiggle and juke everything you do
I finally beat the beast crest boss. By far the hardest boss I've done so far.
from where do you get to bilgewater? i didn't find a way from sinner's road or greymoor
>>719959827The area design runs circles around HK.
>>719961958whispering vaults top right, might be a hidden wall I think
>>719961958correct me if wrong but I dont think you can in act 1?
>>719960865I hope they do none of this unless they create a separate easy mode for you pussies. Then I don't really care
>>719961114Wait, is that not the section you enter through the hidden wall in the train station?
>>719961390>>719960865The only time Team Cherry made HK is easier was when they added the Dream Gate with the DLC and the Fragile Charm upgrades.Every other time they made it fucking harder.
>2 masks contact damage even as the boss is dyingThis game is some bullshit
>>719960865they need to fix some enemies not giving you iframesfucking stupid to lose 2 masks instantly to trash mobs
>>719961958I got to Bilgewater from the long vertical area at the rightmost edge of Sinners Road, second right exit from the bottom.
>thinking team cherry will make this easierLMAOTHEY FUCKING NERFED QUICK SLASH AND THE SHOTGUN MAGGOT SPELL
>>719962329thank you!
didn't know that crests changed your charge attack too
how do i free the puppy
>>719962408They increased difficulty in HK cause it was too easy Silksong is unironically too hard in some cases. I seriously hope Silksong never gets a Pantheon equivalent.
>>719962191>he gotted crushed by sister splintermove out the way bitch
>>719962548it's a roach and trust me when I say you don't want to free it
>>719960087It really was retarded for the boss to have minions you've never fought before.
It’s incredible how they dropped the ball with bird enemies. You’d think they’d save that for a really cool reveal in a boss fight or something instead of “oh btw you can fight birds now.”
>>719962408and the charm that gave more i-frames. that shit carried me through the game
>>719961876oh yeah i did that way earlier. i felt bad for the little pilgrim...
>>719962635They're not real birds, they're just LARPing bugs
im still stuck at the Greymoor boss, even qith Quijote's help i get killed during the final phase with all the shit the boss throws at you.
is the wormway the worst thing to spend your simple key on? don't think you need the key at all there if you just go through another entrance
>>719962635There's also mice and rats in Greymoor
Why am I so bad at videogames?
so where the fuck do i get these charms and crests you guys are talking about? i could swear i explored every possible area but still got nothing. please tell me they are later in the game because i don't want to see hunter's march ever again
>>719962820It gives you early access to Shellwood and bell town
>>719962821Yeah but birds eat bugs so you’d think they would add a little more flair with them as enemies
>FUCKING NO-HIT DELIVERY QUESTS AGAIN>DELIVER A FUCKING SLAB OF SHIT TO PILGRIM'S SHITFUCK>GET TO THE PLACE>THERE'S A FUCKING STAG BEETLE RAPING THE JEWBUG>I HAVE TO KILL IT WHILE TAKING NO HITSI'M GOING TO FUCKING NUKE AUSTRALIA FOR MY OWN SINS
>>719963112I got the crest of the beast from the ant area that requires you to have the cloak upgrade and the reaper crest from Greymoor in the upper area just before the boss.
yes or no?
>>719962821Those are mites
>>719963252If you do it skips the Greymoor boss
>>719962297>parry attack>lose hp anyway to contact damage>if I had run away I would have been hit by the attackI miss shadow dash.
I'm still working my way through HK after putting it into the backlog years ago, just been to the abyss and got the dash upgrade and only done the city dreamer, out of curiosity is silksong a sequel or prequel?
NAO
Someone that's good at screenshots needs to take a screenshot of the exact moment when missing a diagonal pogo Hornet says past the bounce platform.It'd be perfect for taking the piss.
>>719963565>thiccsloplanky princess more erotic
I think I fucked up the secret boss in the cogwork heart. the secret sphere boss I run out of the room as it spawned and then it dissappered and wont respawn
>>719963575>dash attackEHRen > Nao
Contact damage is an absolute cancer mechanic and it's ruining most of the boss fights in this game.
>>719963785you can hit it after wall jumping to get it to come out of the ceiling again. it's not a boss, just a strong enemy.
lads anyone knows hot to get up this ledge in the far fields? Tried to pogo off of the rigs hanging down but it doesn't seem possible.
Just beat the quick travel boss. Game's boring as fuck so far compared to hollow knight
>>719963879need an upgrade. i don't have it yet but there was a grapple shown in the trailer
Is there NTR in the game?
>>719963926ogey thanks
I'm close to prolly 50 attempts on beastflyJesus I'm getting so hard filtered by an optional act I boss.
BTW guys you can bypass the last defender. Theres another way into the city I did
Is there only one path through Mount Fay? I wanna make sure I'm not going down a side path in this hellscape.
What the fuck man
>expectWho do ESLs struggle with this so much?
>>719963953Yeah Hornet gets cucked out of having health and doing damage by all of the enemies past Greymoor
I'm so close to using a guide because I don't know how many shit I missed and it gives me amxiety.
suck my ass dracula you gonna have to try a little harder than that surely the boss after this is easy now
holy shit FUCK SINNER'S ROAD AND FUCK BILEWATER AND FUCK THESE MAGGOTS
>>719964139Because English spelling is retardedt. success
>>719963953technically Hornet is a byproduct of NTR
>>719959516Is it true that there's a lesbic romance route in the game? I'm finally gotta get to play this weekend.
im on my way to the last judge in blasted steps and i just got nail arts from hollow knight ... fucking kino...
The crests don't change the damage of your hits right?I swear I see people clearing some bosses in way less hits than I'm doing.
>>719964570too bad that move doesn't give silk back
>>719964609Reaper builds up your bar faster so you can spam abilities all the time.
>>719964609Crests still affect DPS because they swing faster or slower.
>>719964710wait it doesnt? damn that sucks
Could little ghost make it through the game with his full moveset?
>>719964609reaper for silk moves/wanderer for dps
>Stumble upon a good spot to farm rosaries>Grind out thousands of them and clear out every shop I know of before moving onThanks brain
Genuinely getting upset at some of the tedium >Almost every zone has at least one runback that's fucking cancer, the hunter area only has one fucking bench>None of the bosses drop currency, only bigger elite enemies do even though the vendors are expensive as fuck >Tons of quests are % drop dogshit with fuck all for rewardsGenuinely cannot believe bosses don't drop ANY fucking beads or lead to chests with some
>719964554https://arch.b4k.dev/v/search/image/FZ2gIEF_OYdvwmS8OyiDVw/
I wish you could get a custom crest that lets you pick the best aspects of every crest.
I TAKE BACK EVERYTHINGSUFFERING THROUGH THE MIST IS SO WORTH ITLITERAL GAMECHANGER
>>719964609Hunter crest gets a buffed version that lets you do extra damage after not getting hit for a while.
>>719964570I wish it had better range.
Anyone know a good endgame rosary farming spot?
bros... last judge is filtering me hard... i cant even get to my fucking cocoon on the other side of the arena bc the faggot boss just hitbox checks me
>>719961432I like how some weird scitzos have shown up in these threads despite not knowing anything about what is going on.But yeah, loving the atmosphere of the game and new style of play, but Think the same 3 people playtested it for 7 years and it shows. Still having fun but yeah they needed to go a bit easier on some of the aerial enemies while platforming and all this 2-hp-hit BS
Am I retarded how do I get up in the cogwork core
Wanderer is what Beast wishes it could be. You already hit fast as fuck without having to enter some retarded lifesteal attack speed state and your down attack isn't completely fucking retarded. + you attack so fast you're getting heals back super fast.
>Find a giganigga pilgrim literally covered in beads who attacks with a rosary>Deals two damage per hit, tanks hits for days, even has his own dedicated room, clearly a miniboss tier enemy>Kill him>30 beads, not even enough to string a rosary myself
>poison applies to the flea brewI'm gonna poison myself if I drink it like that aren't I?
Why's she so fucking cool?
>>719959516how do I get Shakra in the hunters march arena?
>>719960224You unlock an ability at some point
>>719965375>>719964871 hereFrom the bench at the Grand Bellway, you rush to the left and kill the two enemies at the end, then immediately run back to the bench to respawn them. You get 46 rosaries with the Thief's Mark for the two of them, which nets you over a hundred per minute.
>>719959516Didn't people say the difficulty would ramp up starting at widow?After beating Savage Beastfly with noting but hunter crest and shit tools, that one felt rather easy.People would have alot less trouble and alot more fun if the Wanderer Crest was the basic move set instead of Hunter.
>>719965623i was scared to drink it too, but it's actually strong as fuck. you get an aoe poison aura and your attacks poison enemies too.
>>719959516Where do you get Crustnut?
>>719965623It's actually really good
Fuck this bird room
>>719959516Fourth Chorus is fun and fair. Felt like a Cuphead boss. It was also animated at a weirdly high framerate.
He's not as hard as people make him out to be.
Playing this game with keyboard and mouse sucksI fucking hate all the diagonal movementUppercut attacks are a major pain to do (not that the enemy design helps)My wrist is literally sprained after playing 6 hours todayAny advice
>>719965623it applies to the lifeblood trinket too, gives you 1 temp health that explodes into poison when damaged or after 5 seconds
>>719965773savage beastfly is easy if you come to it after beating greymoor. the real filter is last judge especially with the atrocious runback (probably worst runback in the game).
This dice game at the edge of the world is comfy and all, but when the hell do I actually win? I as up 16, now I'm down 60+. Just give me the dice please
>>719965934play longer until you unlock a different crest that doesn't have diagonals (there are two)
Miss me yet?
Which side do you first enter Hunter's March from?
>found the way to access the locked door behind pilgrim's rest>there is a boss that guards the lever>I switch the lever but die to the boss>now the door is open but boss disappearedDid I cuck myself out of something useful?
>>719965934if you hate diagonal attacks and want a more traditional down attack then get the reaper's crest on the left side of greymoor. also play on controller, it's comfier.
>>719960865>knock a boss down into stun for a few seconds>if you don’t get out of the way fast enough just two masks worth of damage Just fuck you I guess, I’m really starting to hate contact damage in games
>>719965934Get a controller, retard?
>>719961356do I get anything for killing the skull tyrant that spawns?
You can break the door mechanism at the Pilgrim's rest in Far Fields to stop the merchant from jewing you for access to the bench every timeHoly fucking kino. I feel like Jesus smashing the tables of moneylenders at the temple
>>719966079The left side is locked for nowI’m on the rightHow do I unlock it? I need it asap or I won’t be able to play tomorrow lol
>the Needolin works like the Dream Nail on sentient enemies and lets you hear their thoughts
>There's a parry crestI KNEEL TEAM CHERRY
>>719965724Gee whiz I hope I get it soon, already got the default ending.Also how this open duhhh derr?
>>719964570where
>>719966328Where's that at
Am I wrong or the world seems less dense than HK? I don't feel like there are thag many more secrets, they are just spread more in a bigger world.
> install mod that gives you compass + bead/shard magnet even if you haven't it equippedInstant QoL that makes the game more enjoyable.>>719960865I would already be happy if they removed contact damage on staggered bosses.Such a stupid design.
>>719966168I dont have one and no other game I play really needs a controller I am a pc-game pcgamer who plays shit like crpgs mostly
Good god why can't falling into ice water just reset me to a fucking platform?
>>719966469Phantom has it after the Mist
>>719966010The side with the roided-up ant warrior.
>beat boss>get nothingGOTY
Uhhh, did I accidentally skip the Last Judge?
I REFUSE to fuck Hornet
I DID ITFUCKING BEASTFLY! EAT MY WHOLE ASS I FUCKING GOT HIM!GO TO HELLAND YES I KNOW HE SHOWS UP AGAIN LATER I SAW A SCREENSHOT DON'T RUIN IT /v/
>>719966356You come at it from below by pogoing up on the balls that pop up after you beat the bird room.
Whoever told said that silk spear one shots the add in sister splinter THANK YOU
>>719962297Flurry attacks are that way by design(I think it should only be on elites and bosses, not on 60% of them)
>>719966617WHATHOW
Which crest is top tier?
Where the fuck is this Mist
>drops down and snaps the jailer's neckHoly kino
where is the boss?i just find the one that drops a simple key
>>719966617let me guess from greymoor
>>719966617Let me guess. You fought the spook?
Does the locked bellhome involve something from Act 2 or can it be done in Act 1?
>>719966719Beat the PhantomI went Graymoore to Sinner's Road to The Mist to Exhaust Organ
Currently grinding shell shards before trying to beat the Last Judge, am I right in assuming that the final boss is basically Spider-Radiance? Barring a surprising curveball I feel like I figured out where the plot's going the second I saw magic webs shoot into one of those crazy pilgrims.
>>719959516in an earlier thread someone wrote asking about improving your natural ability. well, read the item description on this
>>719966789>>719966796Yup. I hope that little nigga I left back on the Blasted Steps is ok.
How do I get to Sinner's Road from Greymoor? I've seen a bunch of people talk about that raoute but I can't find anything.
I miss Cornifer...
>>719966904Up and right from the tavern. You'll have to approach from above to unlock an elevator
>>719963301the boss disappears no matter what you choose
>>719966817Holy shit. I guess that's the speedrun route then?
>>719959516at blasted steps now, is this end game?says it ascends to the citadel
>>719967042thats still chapter 1
>>719967042Lmao
>finally get past that fucking ice lake in mount fay>find a paid bench when I have no moneyFuck you Team Cherry you sadistic bastards!>keep going>open a shortcut and find a free benchThank you Team Cherry for your gracious mercy!
>>719967095How many total, 2 or 3?
so is there any nail upgrades like at all? i just beat widow and i am still at 5 masks and no nail upgrades
When should I be trying this ingredient questI'm scared
>>7199671232
>>719967141there are
>>719967141go down. You have just released the citizens in bellhart
>>719967141Go back to the town you just saved and climb up to one of the stores.
where is it
>>719960236Don't even need to focus on adds since he kills them when he slams. Just focus on him and moving near adds so he hits them.
Just beat the giga crow boss in Greymoor. Whichever of Team Cherry's 3 devs thought it was cool to have bosses deal double damage on contact should be shot. What a profoundly obnoxious way of making the game harder. Did they spend almost 7 years ignoring every single piece of feedback they ever got? It is inconceivable that their playtesters didn't say "this shit feels like ass" when filling out their forms.
>>719967141You just unlocked your first upgrade, actually. The NPC who upgrades it is in the bell town in the highest bell house.
>>719961501That area is my favorite in the game so far. Loved the Metroid vibe.
Is this more heal or faster heal? Worth it?
FOR FUCK'S SAKE
>>719965975Just found out: If you lose too much money, just close the game without saving and try again from the the last bench
>>719967095>>719967106those fuckersalso does the needolin come into play outside of the mist?
>>719960136hornet binds the final boss and overdoses on silk, evolving into a weaver
>rainy city has a farm spot that gives 110 breads per minutePretty neat
>>719967108I farmed for extra bead necklaces so this will never happen to me.
>>719967308more healing at slower pace
I've reached Blasted Steps and this is my map so far. Just tell me if there are any major areas I've missed, yes or no? I know the Hunter's red area is missing, I plan to go back there. But anything else?
>>719963565sequel
>spend 880 rosaries on the double heal charm>it sucks and gets me killed in the first fight I try to use itI want my money back.
What the fuck were they thinking with this? Literally makes the game unplayable.
>>719967308It's Deep Focus.
>>719966328Oh wait, it's not a crest, it's a silk skill. That's even better
>>719967108At last!My precious....
>>719967308It's a bit more complex.Essentially the heal takes a bit more time, same cost. But it is divided in 2 ticks, so you get 2 masks in the middle point (slightly earlier than regular heal) and 2 more at the end (slightly later than regular heal).Overall it's a lot better
>>719967397Go back to the starting zone and use the music ability on the weaver door
>>719967397There is another area above Greymoor.
locations of the holy bells to open the citadel door?
>>719967447The pogo ruins it desu
>>719967108BTW for anyone like me who's struggling in this piece of shit zone I was fucking up my own clawline bounces by going into float mode too quickly and not getting the altitude I should have been. Make sure when you clawline off an enemy you get the full height bounce before you press anything.
I used one simple key on the deep docks zone that gets you the fire buff tool. Should I use the second to free the prisoner in Sinner's Road or is there somewhere better to use it?
>love reaper crest, fully upgrade it>here's an upgrade to hunter so you can do more damage if you don't get hitfuck's sake man
>last judge>gay as fuck runback which is harder than the boss itself>boss deals 2 damage on everything including contact damage>conchflies everywhereholy fucking CANCER, the run back is making me tilt so hard. It takes 4 minutes between attempts. the boss is so fucking easy compared to the flies, but I keep dying to retarded shit
Last Judge doesn't seem that bad.It's the boss run that's absolute cancer.
>>719967447It's fucking OP when you have a boss reachable from a bench without pogo in the middle. Otherwise it sucks balls in free roaming.
>>719960865So the first patch will make the game better?
>>719967691oh, I forgot. environmental damage that does 2 damage just because, teehee :)
>Everyone tells me that if I don't like the diagonal pogo to switch to the reaper crest>Switch to the reaper crest>It solves the diagonal pogo issue but literally every other attack animation is worse and you swing slowerUnironically, what the fuck is the devs's fucking problem? Is it actually too much to ask for a moveset that doesn't feel like garbage?
>>719967358>>719967456>>719967482I guess I'll skip it for now. If it went for the other slot then maybe.
>>719967490>>719967524Ok thanks.
Where the fuck is the silk dash that gives you i-frames?
>Broken Tool>Needs a craftsbug of high skillBut whomst
Can't decide if I should use the key at Bone Bottom or by the forge.
>backstep takes a full charm slot>barely faster than just dashing backwards>harder input than dashing backwardsbut why?
>>719967767it should be an instakill instead i agree
I realized I need to stop paying attention to anons warnings because everything anons cried about only gave me the normal amount of trouble. Just get good.
>>719967309Bro you're like 30% done.
I think Team Cherry could have EASILY put some weird NPCs at the end of some areas or fights. Just a silly interaction.Also, they should have put more relics across the map. Since they double as lore shit too.
Oh so for the kidnapper event to work you have to get hit specifically by the cage attack huh, regular attacks simply kill you.
>>719967703why do conch flies have 12 hp? why do they read my inputs? god it is so annoying
>>719967901t.>silksong+17.ct>flingtrainer.exe>wemod.exe>fextralife.exe
I finally entered the ant area but I already went up to Greymoor and met Shakra there. Did I fuck up or will she also appear here to get the map?Please respond
>>719967901Different people have different skillsets???? WTF??????
>all these people actually fighting Last Judgememe boss. fight is skippable and the alternate path is way cooler
Act 2 bros, where is the best place to grind anal beads?
>>719967772Reaper is for silk spam
>>719967340There are doors you can open with the Needolin, so far I've found 1 in the starting area and 1 in the far reaches.
NOOOOOOOFUCK YOU SKULL BASTARD, I NEVER SHOULD HAVE ACCEPTED THAT QUESTGIVE HER BACK TO ME
You should be allowed to switch stances on the fly. That's my main gripe with the game.>>719959670Far Fields was kinda ass, imo. That's my second gripe with the game.
The funeral they held for the dead guy was SOUL
>>719967901i'm not a no life neet
>equip the item that increases damage taken and dealt>20-25% more damage but take double>every boss attack is 4 masksYeah fuck this
this courier's rasher delivery is fucking ridiculous
Finally got 8 hearts, feels good.
some anon said you can grab oil for the needle upgrade easily in the citadelis it true before i backtrack a fuckton to do the wish for it in the dining room?
>>719967901I just beat Moorwing in only about 20 minutes which is way less time than I think most anons take, but the complaints about the runbacks, contact damage, and diagonal downslashing and it's consequences are 100% valid. You're kidding yourself if you think otherwise. I've only got about 10 hours in the game so far but unless it radically changes later on, it is simply way less fun to play than the first game. Silksong is probably one of the absolute worst possible examples of the devs prioritizing difficulty at the expense of fun. This feels like playing an arcade game thats trying to be impossible on purpose to suck more quarters out of you.
>>719968015see anon I'm not fighting last judge, I'm fighting the fucking conch flies. the boss is a joke, it's the flies and the worms stopping me
>>719967482the split heal + the protective bell (or whatever it's called) let's you partial heal safely which is pretty good.
Am I really supposed to fight last judge with 5 mask health bar
>>719960271Rent free
>>719968090Did you get all other ingredients? I only have the Vintage Nectar and planning to do Rasher soon.
>>719962790Can't take a screenshot for you right, but you can kite the boss to the left side of the map, there is a little platform that blocks all the projectiles. Makes the boss super easy.
>didn't accept the old knight's help for the Greymoor flier bossDid I choose wrongfully or rightfully?
>>719967772if team cherry were nice the crests would have options to mix and match pogos, slashes. as far as i can see that isn't possible so you end up with movesets that are half scuffed with each crest
This gauntlet was fucking annoying. I hate it. Especially that fucker who throws three daggers. I was constantly risking bumping into him because he out of nowhere decided just drop to the ground.
>>719968045I'd be using silk spam way more often if it wasn't so expensive to heal. Woo hoo you heal 3 masks at once, except it takes your entire fucking bar and since bosses almost universally deal double damage it's the equivalent of just 1 HK heal anyway.
>>719968015Do you seriously not get anything from it? Because I did already unlock the path from The Mist. If so I'm absolutely gonna skip this meme cancer.
>>719968090I'm convinced there's another way. There's no way they actually expect you to clear a quarter of the map within the set time limit, right?
WTF WHY? He was a dirty cheat though going by those dice
What does the evolved nail crest even do? It doesn't seem to deal more damage.
>>719968015took me 1 hour. runback was more annoying lol
>>719959516Im finding the game unfun hard at sinners path. Can any ez anons recommend me a build for my character?
>>719968218I never even met the old knight. I saw him through a wall but thought that the way to the flier boss via the fast travel point was some kind of optional side area so I beat it and the knight disappeared
>>719968146There should be enough pieces for another mask.Which doesn't matter because you get hit for two masks anyway.The entire rest of the game is like this.
Can an anon with a good memory tell me how many Apostate lock there are? Finally got the key, but can't remember all the lock, only found 2.
>>719968015the boss blocking the citadel gate?how the frick do you skip that kek
>>719968059>You should be allowed to switch stances on the flyThe Beast Crest could actually have some use, I like this.
I'm lost/stuck. I feel like I've cleared everything I can. It looks like I need some super jump or wall jump to proceed anywhere else. I'm trying to clear the wave fight in the hunter place and its rough but that is the only area I haven't maximized I think.
>>719968290>that picHoly fucking kek
will this nigger keep reeing on my ears forever?
>>719968119Don’t care about runbacks. Contact damage, I’ll give you that one. But diagonal downslashing is the only crest I use for the parkour sections because its so fucking fun.
>>719962790Here, found one online. Just fight boss here, and alternate between sides. Super easy.
>>719968304uhhh there was one by the slab bench+tramway
Am I fucked out of fighting Moorwing? I found all the fleas before getting to him and now the flea circus is where I've learned his arena would be.

>>719968119Runbacks take the cake for me. Widow took me 4 tries and I wanted to do it again right after clearing it simply because the runback is so smooth.
>>719968410no he turns up later if you skipped himall bosses do infact
>>719968371The diagonal downslashing literally only exists to make platforming and air combat needlessly contrived and overly difficult, Team Cherry saw people pogoing Pantheon Markoth to death and got incredibly butthurt it was more viable than the intended strat of spending 5 minutes killing him with stray nail arts, and so they nerfed the fuck out of air combat with the diagonal movement so that wait-and-strike gameplay is all there is.
Did charged attacks not give soul in HK? They don't give silk in this and it's really fucking with my play style, never noticed an issue in HK>>719968015What's the skip? Took me a lot of tries but almost all of them were with in unupgraded nail, once I got that and understood all the attacks I got there.

>>719959516How the fuck do you get up here
>>719968362Congratulations, anon.
Far right side of the Ducts, is Craftmetal the only thing there besides lore? There is that elevated spot with the light beaming down but double jump can't get you high enough
how do I reach you
doesn't team cherry realize that if they made bosses do one damage instead of two they could have added actually interesting patterns rather than easily dodgeable shit? Why do all the bosses boil down to "no hit this, or insta die." Your health evaporates in fucking seconds, especially if you accidently contact the boss. So they add in these easy patterns because otherwise it would be like doing a rabi ribi no hit run. It's just boring
WTF IS THIS RUNBACK
HI MOM :D
holy fucking shit the Citadel man, fucking act 2 man , fuck my life, is this all necessary send h
where the FUCK is the bell beast station in choral halls/cogworks/wherever? just got pin oil and had to do the fucking blasted steps run back AGAIN.also, does your map just update automatically in the citadel once you’ve paid rosaries to see the model? I got the “no map” symbol for the cogworks but then it showed up after I rested on a bench
>>719968218I met him and I didn't even know you could do that lol
>>719968508? I pogo all the enemies with the diagonal thoughever
>>719968362you have to give him to a certain NPC. if you remember all the NPC dialogue and what they looked like it shouldn't be too hard to figure out who.
>>719968572>It's just boringI dunno how having higher stakes is boring but ok
Where do you get the Pickled Muckmaggot?

>>719968574that can't be real wtf
>>719968572If you haven't played HK I don't know what you're doing here. They clearly don't know how to do some kind of extremely complex boss, Absolute Radiance in HK is only somewhat hard because of your extremely limited movement thanks to having to stick to a few platforms for movement.
Anyone else progress in the map and then just save/quit to fill it in
>knight beats hornet several times in his game>she's much weaker in her own game, takes 2+ mask damage from absolutely everything and does no damage>has to get saved by shade lord knight in the true ending>several nude scenes because sex appeal is the only thing she's good atI think it's time to talk about Team Cherry's sexism. This is not okay in 2025.
>>719968446I have Reaper and the AOE attack from Greymoor. I've activated the balloons but I kind of feel there should be more. Feels like everywhere is closed off due to needing a wall jump or super jump.
Surely you don't have to do that platforming shit every time you run back to Phantom right? Surely there's a shortcut I missed... right?
>>719968643I MUST facetank everything or game bad

>>719968290picrel is so fucking funny, I've come to stop minding the lost levels tier difficulty jump since at least there aren't as many filler encounters
>>719968761Why would they make it a secret
>>719968618For only 1/10th the DPS at way greater risk and with way more opportunity for the enemy to dash away and ruin the chain. It's an objective massive downgrade from the first game. It is actually crazy to think how they spent almost a decade ruining the formula they had already perfected.
>>719963732>
>>719968794Because fuck you, that's why.The entire game designed to piss you off as much as possible.
>>719968794To motivate players to explore.
>>719968735its not sexism because knight is non binary
>>719968678it's real nice, love all the cheeky traps and trolls
There are only 3 hp up's in the whole game
It smells like bitch in here. You niggas need to git gud
>>719968709nta but i got out of the underworks as soon as i couldbut i found the traveling hub in the choral area pretty quickly since it was pretty obvious from the map outline
>>719968640I thought it'd be that one that refuses to leave its house and asks for a "extraordinary specimen" but apparently it's not it. Can't think of any other
>>719968854It's motivating me to just watch an LP.
what program you guys use to convert mp4s to webms? I have some boss humiliation to share.
>>719968689Thanks
>get to Act 2 >regular enemies now do 2-3 damageIt's all so tiring...
>>719966380Blasting steps on the very left. You have to fight a boss first.
>>719968610>just got pin oil and had to do the fucking blasted steps run back AGAIN.Anon... Bottom right of the choral halls, right below where you found the oil
>>719968225Im surprised more fans arent pissed at how railroaded the builds are compared to hollow knight.
>>719968903Do that, then. metroidvanias's whole point is exploration.
>>719963732need more of the stick
>>719968881achievements say 20 mask shards so by the end you should have 10 masks
Give me the best rosary grinding spot in act 2i need like 3k rosaries just for the shop items alone
>>719968913Where do people get 3 damage
>>719968934Yeah. The point is to explore, not to pixel hunt every wall.
>parry silk skillI'm nutting
>>719968913>get further in the game>the game becomes harder
>>719968053where do i fight the boss to get it
Is there a shade cloak equivalent? An Abyss shriek? Desolate Dive? How easy would this game be if we could play as the knight? Can’t wait to see him modded in.
>>719968745>complaining about phantom runbackyou would not survive the last judge runback
>>719968881me when i spread lies on purpose in the internet
>>719968574Breakable wall leads to Exhaust Organ with a bench. You have to wade through shit water to get there though
>if you swim in clear water while you have the maggot aids it removes the aidsInteresting.
>>719968976If you're really slow to react you can get caught in a full combo.
Dont press r3 button.
THAT'S RIGHT YOU WHOREFUCK YOU104 attempts
>>719968734You don't need to quit? Just resting at a bench fills in your new discoveries.
Is the whiteward supposed to be basically empty? There's not much but there's something to insert a key on. Where is this key?
These first days of release for an exploration heavy game is pretty funny because I can just lie and you all would believe it
>>719968976ignore that retardthe only enemy i've encountered so far that does 3 damage is the final boss and only on one specific attackt. beat the game
Was there ANYTHING in the game that alluded to this?
>>719969057A beast shard that gives you 140 shell shards.
>>719969080Not when I'm far away from a bench at 1 health and have no clue what direction to go or if something will pop out and kill met.Bilewater
Am I supposed to jump here, dash to the wall and hop off it? Because I can't fucking get enough height on my wall jump and always dash right into the spikes.
What do you get for freeing the green prince in Sinners Road? Don't want to waste a simple key
>>719969020Its a unfun bitch with runbacks. First times fun, 5th time isnt.
>>719969154nolace is an afterthought character and all her lore and the final boss' lore are just infodumped right at the ass end of the game because they couldn't be bothered to weave (heh) it in
>>719969203Pogo the spikes
>>719969203just pogo off the spikes dumbass
>>719969154needolin is needed for most lore, there is also a diary hidden at phantoms opera that implies the same
>>719968975best one I've seen so far is >>719965751
>>719969075I'm happy you managed to beat her without using your tools.
FACT: The ultimate takeaway between Hollow Knight and Silksong is that movesets that are less flashy but more functional and allow greater expression are more fun than movesets filled with gimmick shit that are ultimately more restrictive. The Knight just walks at people, bounces on their head, and casts a few spells, but with these tricks you can literally dance circles around every boss in the game. Hornet's got tons of flashy dashes, jumps, and gadgets but you're stuck at the mercy of the bosses the entire time because of how much more restrictive this flashy stuff is, and now everyone is complaining about how frustrating the gameplay is.
>>719969203jump off the wall lower so you don't hit the platform
when do I finally get an upgrade to the sword so I'm not having to use 4+ hits on every single enemyI just got to this area with these annoying scissor guy enemies too, they block all your frontal attacks and you can only really attack them by hopping over them after the rapid chop attack. Fuck these stupid guys. I need 1 more mask shard too so I can finally get 6 health to make it a little easier but can't find one anywhere.
>>719968226that arena is annoying as fuck, took me more attempts than the boss. It was satisfying being able to clear the first few waves with no damage as I got better at least.
>>719969251>phantoms operaThat's probably in the mist, huh? I skipped that area entirely.
>>719968602I forgot how fat she was.
I was so excited to get the bombs, but finding out you only get 3 has put a massive damper on things.
>>719969248>>719969249With what, my fucking foot?
Anyone did her quest? She's the only NPC I haven't encountered after the first time at the statue.
>>719969219A beast shard that gives you 140 shell shards.
>>719969270as i said you get to beat the bell beast first
>>719969251How do you needolin for lore? Taunt in front of NPCs for unique dialogue?
>>719969295>when do I finally get an upgrade to the swordIn the second town.>so I'm not having to use 4+ hits on every single enemylollmaoBe happy it's only taking 4 hits for now.
>>719968975i've just been killing the big niggas between high halls and first shrine with the architect crest charge attackit's easy as fuck, they die quick, they drop 36 a pop, and there are benches at both ends
I am down to 2 remaining options>Fight Last Judge>The MistI guess I'm exploring the Mist
>>719969034i've been using the drill tool on down+r1 whenever bosses are stunned, feels great. dunno about the rest
Where are you suppose to go in Shellwood to get the wall cling? I assume that's the next movement tech I need given the area but I can't find it.
>>719969325ye
The Last Judge needs a fucking bench next to her lmao what the fuck is this Team Cherry you cucks.
>>719969275I'm deeply ashamed I somehow missed this obvious mistake, thank you.
How do you unlock this shit in the citadel? excuse the hdr lol
>>719969329there's a quest? thought it was just a random npc
How the fuck do you get there?
>>719969270its because nobody uses the tools like how nobody used the spells
How do I access this section? It's the last thing I'm missing so far
>>719969042I do not know what that is and I am scared to find out. Beat her though, but that achievement % can't be right
>>719969329nope. supposedly she should be near dead ends but i've never encountered her in any beginning areas. have you seen the fearful pilgrim anywhere?
>>719969383mist has a much cooler fight so definitely go there
>>719969435Why don’t you fucking explore instead of being spoonfed? I will slap the shit out of you next time you ask such a ridiculous question
>>719969376Every single NPC sings a little song if you play in front of them. Randomized lines though, annoyingly
>>719969054Has anyone managed to get maggot aids to Yarnaby who is asking for specimens in Greymoor next door?
I usually never parry in game but holy shit this is beyond overpowered.>very generous windows>the parry hits everything in huge aoe
>>719969329Some anon said she shows up in those locked room gauntlets that don't have any rewards, excpect most people don't see her because they do them before meeting her for the first time.
>>719969428spells in HK are fun as fuck once they get upgraded though
>>719968913>3 damageAre you fucking kidding me
>>719969454It shows 0.8% for me lol
>>719969398Even if I wasn't naked I don't think any spikes in the game have been pogo-able yet other than the round spiky things in Sinner's Road.
Now I'm getting squashed by Mama Luigi's big fat ass.
so why not just make every enemy 1 shot you? why even have health? get good, right?
where is thiefs mark, i need it to grind out more beads
>>719969383Can't you do both?
>>719969454sinner road and bilewater are both quite hiddennormalfags don't like backtracking the old areas
>>719969510I’m talking about the average gamer
>>719969454there are two ways into the citadelkilling phantom like you just did is one of them, the other is killing last judge so you don't actually have to bother with that pain in the dick nownobody kills phantom because she's hidden behind the mist and last judge doesn't have a puzzle to reach him
>>719969428Maybe they shouldn't charge 1 quintillion dollars for the tools then because otherwise grinding it out is the only realistic way to afford them. The free tools I've found (the fire buff and throwing knives) are mid versus anything I've fought thus far. By the time I'm comfortable enough with the boss moveset to really leverage the tools effectively, I'm good enough at the boss to win without them.
>>719968905vidcoder
>>719969376Play your harp in front of them. Some enemies too. I've seen dialogue from every guy with a bell on his head and murkroaches then gave up because the dialogue moves so fucking slow and in one liners and drains your silk so you never know when they start repeating themselves.
>>719969454>but that achievement % can't be rightbarely anyone does the Mist and boss itself is extremely hard>phantom before judgeummm based?
How do I climb pic related in blasted steps? The logical solution seems to be dash into float but I land in the spikes every time.
>>719969383does it take you to the citadel?
>>719969539You can, I've been doing it the whole time.
I was sort of getting used to the weird diagonal pogo but holy fuck reaper felt like such an upgrade
>>719969601You can get to Phantom through Bilewater too, but that's arguably more of a pain in the dick than the Blasted Path
>>719969492So you don't know either.
>>719968745Unless you somehow didn't drop the elevator, are you complaining about a grand total of two hazard tubes?
>>719969613probably need the harpoon upgradecan you point out where in the map this area is?
>>719969493When do you unlock the ability to play your needle like a cello? My needolin just goes GARAMA. Quite useless.
tfw hornet will never wrap her naked thighs around your neck and snap it like a twig horny ass devs
One simple thing would have fixed both games.Enemies don't damage you just by touching them.It's literally that simple, I should only take damage when an enemy is attacking me or hits me with an attack. I shouldn't take damage if I just walk into an enemy. They can still prevent you from just moving past enemies, find, they can block my path forcing me to jump over them, but if I just touch them in the process I shouldn't take damage unless there's reason to take it. Most other games don't do this stupid shit. Even fucking souls games you don't take damage unless an enemy is actually attacking you even if you run into them. Only enemies with spikes / armor that would make sense to damage a player that touches them should damage you, or any enemy with fire attacks or whatever.
>>719966262you mean the inn? You can climb on top of the inn and go to the other side lol
I've been experiencing a lull after beating Widow, it's my own fault for going back to the starter areas to find secrets I missed but in terms of progression I've been stuck running around blindly in The Mist and roaming around directionless in Bilewater. Kind of gave up on both and now I'm in Blasted Steps, hope the pacing picks up eventually.
>>719968905Webm for retards
>>719969495Good idea I might do it now that I'm in the area.>>719969576Wait what the fuck? How are you supposed to get to the citadel if not through this shitpile then?
>>719969613 mark it for later when you get double jump
>requires non-renewable resourceeyy fuck youany of this stuff worth it?
>>719969428>use the tools freely>die to the boss>lose 10 morbillion shards>have to leave boss and go grind shards>save the tools until you're confident in your ability to fight the boss>end up not needing themit's just a shit system. they should work like rosaries in that you need to collect large amounts of shards to craft tools, and then you still have a limited amount per bench but they recharge for free.
>>719969613Do the opposite, float into dash. You can pogo off spikes for extra height too
>>719968238it's a lot faster with double jump, you can skip lots of obstacles
this fight is so fucking retarded. Like it's enough that you put these two enemies together now why the fuck is it so dark that I can't see anything that is going on. Literally anti-fun. For now I'm gonna come back when I have some more tools but whether or not they will help me I have no idea
>courier's rashersEven without getting hit it's a fucking tight window of time.Anyone who did it in the thread? What route did you take?
>>719969703Beat the boss on top of the bell town
>>719969613>>719969692>>719969740Nevermind I just did it, I was correct. Just needed a very precise timing. Not sure if some upgrades would've made it a lot easier.
>>719969709She's like 2 inches tall
What I really want from Silksong is the atmosphere of going ever deeper and finding more and more profane secrets. Like HK had with the abyss. I hope there is a ridiculously deep secret area.
>enter Shellwood>60 bead bench>40 bead map>70 bead map>almost no bead dropping enemiesDumb fucking game
Am I supposed to have the double jump already in Bilewater? I'm seeing so many ledges that appear to be inaccessible without it.
>>719969613You can pogo off those spikes.
>>719969750crafting kits increase tool damage, so that's a must-have.
>>719969750i only boughted crafting kit so all tools do more dmg, rest is whatever. the magma trinket is a meme though
What were they thinking?
>>719969601>>719969609where the fuck is this last judge, I feel like I missed something obvious the way people are talking about it lmao
The science-bug tells me to go get Plasmium, but I already have 2 in my inventory. Is it a glitch?
How get in?>>719969790Yeah I did it and even got hit once you can skip a lot by doing a bit of advanced parkour.My pro tip: Take the upper route from bellplace, go to the entrance and take the elevator and then just run through. Practically no enemies 'till blasted lands. Even easier if you get double jump and super dash before though.
The balance of these bosses are very weird, like I think I'm at the half point of the game and some of these bosses are significantly easier than bosses from the first few zones.Those Cogwork Dancers for example were a joke.
>>719969831>tfw hornet will never wrap her arms and legs around your dick and ride it like a bucking broncowhy even fucking wake up in the morning dude
where the fuck am I supposed to go after greymoor?
>>719969905lmao get on my level
>>719969857I have the kit. How do I increase the damage? Unless it already did.
>>719969839no you do those ledges later. you will not have a map until then.
>get new crest>it equips automatically with no tools and fucks up my moveset>want to go back to the default one>can't until i get to a benchliterally why. If I can't equip when im not at the bench then why are you equipping it for me you shitters
>>719967141>tfw got through half of chapter 2 before I gave up and looked where the upgrade is.>Every single enemy was taking SEVEN FUCKING HITS to kill.I got gud but jesus christ that's not fun just tedious
>>719969910blasted steps.>>719970000it's just passive, like a nail upgrade.
>>719969916you need 3
>>719969905>>719969985Yeah this is the only sidequest so far where they're just random spawns and they respawn. Makes no sense
>>719959516I just got the grip and I have to say that all the cries about muh difficulty are bullshit.It's challenging but fun, like Sekiro, not challenging but unfun like Elden Ring.I especially liked the big Fly, once it clicks it's a glorious fight. He almost couldn't touch me when the try immediately before that he was destroying me. It's that kind of game.
>>719969910yea you missed the main game progression order
>>719969790>>719969931Illustrated my path in red, the blue path might be a bit easier as it has way fewer enemies.
>>719960865The difficulty is more or less fine and I'm not a HK maniac who 118% the game or anything like that. The problem is that I'm 10 hours into the game and I haven't found a single damage upgrade (but got 1 mask)
>>719969750crafting kits make tools hit like fucking missiles. My kunai does twice the damage of my nail now
>>719970072It does have good moments but I would say it's a mix between Elden Ring and Sekiro as far as that aspect goes. There are plenty of bullshit design decisions mixed in with the fun ones
>>719970051and how do i get to the blasted steps? here's my map
FCUK YEHA
>wouldn't it be funny if we put the double jump after the hardest and longest platforming section in the gamefuckers
No one knows how to get to the either of these areas. They've been datamined but it's impossible to get there.
>>719969507pretty sure that guy was lying
> all the seething over the difficulty> there's already mods to make the game easierThe game isn't that hard lmao, why is everyone so bad at games? Just practice
>>719970072trust me, the difficulty gets much worse. there's nothing actually hard before the walljump, after widow the game spikes massively in difficulty with both trash mobs and bosses. last judge and his runback are something out of a completely different game to the rest of act 1.
>>719969838I was annoyed at that too, but you can get a bellbeast station very close by and warp to greymoor. Go to the right side of halfway home and go kill all pilgrims inside. Easy 150 beads every time you do it.
is there supposed to be a lantern somewhere? too many areas are so dark
>>719970205every area that requires the double jump is actually 10 times harder
>>719970219it's not hard it's just boring
uuuuh help how do I get back up?I went down to see what's there but all the scales are twisted and too high to reach?
>Press S to parryHFK
>>719970212maybe a teleport to there or something
>>719970160left side of shellwood, right by the fast travel point. surprised you missed it, it's pretty obvious which is why everyone goes that way instead of through phantom.
>>719970259I'm happy to hear it. I feel like Silksong delivers on the promise Hollow Knight made.
Where the FUCK do you go from here? I don't see any way up and it just loops around.I can't even go back because my rest point is stuck on the one by the seamstress.
Does anything happen here?
>Continue past >>719969838>only two more small bead enemies that fly away from you and over water>”oh, another bench is coming up”>60 beads too>some fucking 80 bead switch in front if itThis game’s paywall grind padding is dogshit
does anyone know how much damage the throwing knives do? Is it as much as one sword swing?
New tech bros, no need to thank me. Easy win
>>719970258>he doesn't realize that he's now an old man and should have set brightness to 125% minimum at the startngmi
>>719970310Hm, how?
>>719970262u r boring
>>719970308you should be able to go back up with walljumos and floating, i didnt get stuck going down
>>719970319Forgot pic
I FUCKING HATE UNDERWORKS HAZARDSI FUCKING HATE UNDERWORKS HAZARDSI FUCKING HATE UNDERWORKS HAZARDS
>>719968539you have to drop down exactly where you are, there is a ball that spawns platforms
>>719970262Weak fag.
Guys, I don't think I will be doing a Pantheon of Pharloom if it ever gets added.
Is there anything noteworthy in the Phantom place other than the parry?
>>719970219There's a difference between hard and annoying (but also hard). Silk Song is hard but it is also annoying. Just because it's hard doesn't mean it can't be
>>719970350i have no idea but the triple throwing knife absolutely melts big bosses because all three kunai hit (and pierce too)
>>719970339Pharloom was founded by jewish bugs, expelled from 109 caves and forests.
>>719970212bottom left area is 100% accessed via the diving bell, it's right above it in that circled room. no idea how you actually get in though, it was sealed when i went there and i haven't found anything that seems like it would unseal it.
>>719970084Is that bit near the blasted steps bench an abstraction or is there a real shortcut there?
>>719970239Thanks for the tip. Shame this game is such ass that you need to do this sort of shit, but whatever
>>719970435some important lore but nothing else, getting access to the citadel is the reward
>>719970389oh, you can tip the scales the other direction with attack, got it.
>>719970232Maybe it's true but every single time I ended up doing something people were doing was hard I never felt like it was impossible and if I initially thought that it was because I was being an idiot.
I guarantee to all of you that Last Judge will get a runback.It is BY FAR the most egregious part of the game bar none.
>>719970473Oh just abstraction, I accidentally cut off the rest of the route oops.
I'm fighting the Phantom right now and I can't even imagine fighting him with the normal pogo, diagonal pogo makes fight so much more dynamic it's unreal.Plus the dash attack into pogo combo is sick.
>>719970382not brightness. some areas just have a reduced vision radius
Reminder, you did not beat the game if you:>sought help from /v/ for anything>used a guide or a map at any time
>>719970219I think it's more of a mentality issue than sheer difficulty.The game expects you to be extremely aggressive and rewards you for playing like that.Being defensive will turn fights into an uphill battle since it means getting less healing and damage from skills.Also skills and tools being very important in certain situations like for clearing adds.
>>719970529>he doesn't know about the bilewater 2 minute runbacklol
>all these broke ass niggasAnd I'm still in Act 1
>>719970427you have 10 years until hollow knight 3 mothwings, don't worry
>>719970313Oooh, I did find that area but I went back and forgot about it. Guess I'll do it now and see what I missed out on, thanks.
>>719970529Honestly, it's actually not that bad. The actual boss is pretty easy, so the runback is part of the fight.
>>719970084>>719969790cant you just kill everything, not rest at bench and just go through like in HK?
>>719970424your rape did not make you a stronger woman
how do i trigger those flea guys so that they will move to blasted steps? or that is a lie
>>719960087kite the mob and use silk storm so you can hit sister and insta kill the mob at the same time.
>>719969329>>719970327These two are related. You can find Gilly there hiding.
Can I do both Phantom and Judge?
>>71997067150% fleas found then talk to fleamaster
>>719970573I cheesed the greymoor boss through the wall :)
>>719970678Probably missed her at this point then because I've only seen her by the Ant statue.
>>719970659Actually it does.
What the fuck is their problem
...that's it? That's the final boss?That only took me two tries! The lace fight took me a hundred fucking attempts!I guess it's time to check out this mist area everyone is talking about and try to figure out how to get the true end.Because surely this can't actually be the final boss right? That was way too easy.
>>719970427>savage niggerfly>followed by Willow>followed by Lace 3(Daughter of Pharloom)>followed by Last Judge>followed by First Chorus(Overclocked(Not Fucking Around))>followed by The Clockwork Orchestra
Is there a bell beast station in the citadel or is it just this gay elevator fast travel shit? How do I go back to the act 1 areas without doing a massive run back?
>>719970764watched too much naruto
I'm being raped by ants, is it an area for later? I went in it after I defeated a big red guy guarding the entrance to it.
>>719970764Throwing knives at the right time.
>>719970691yeah, i did judge and then phantom later. only wrinkle might be that i've heard some anons say the flea caravan can move up into judge's room after the phantom fight which locks him for a while like it does moorwing, but i can't say for sure because i did judge first.
>>719970776hmm
>>719970776Is that the Radiance knock off? Then yeah.
>>719970651You could, only beasts respawn.Not a big deal desu as there aren't that many enemies if you know your route.
Do you get anything from Nuu if you keep finding her at defeated bosses or just more flavour text? I've met her twice already and she's a fucking psycho. Also PLEASE somebody tell me in which areas to look for Ghillie I am going INSANE.>>719970807Dunno, was like the third area I checked out. Definitely a pain in the ass, but it's manageable. Just don't go to the "boss", leave that NIGGER for later.
>>719970615>wasting all those beads on not necklaces eehehehehe I can read reddit too
really?
>>719970776it's crazy how much better of a fight lace 2 is compared to the "final boss". what a fucking letdown and a half.
>kill last judge>full health>she explodes and takes me to 0????????
Where the fuck is the map for bile/sinners road? I'm wandering around forever and i'm pretty sure i've explored most of sinners
>>719970905explore the roomthat said you are not going to make it with that amount of health
I'm having fun. Great game.
>>719970954haha do it again faggot-team cherry
>>719970905just pogo bro
Rip
Is this game actually that much longer than HK?Feel like I'm going throught he areas a lot faster
>play needolin next to singing bell guy in bellhart>lyrics start appearing on screensovl
>awful gauntlet with mobs with shitty projectiles and flight >also fucking traps swinging at you>beat them>oh good I can get out of here>nope, boss spawn>btw the traps still go off>btw 2 contact damage for this fuckhuge thing>btw go into the water and your silk is donezo
Where the fuck is the Bilewater map
>>719971045It's the dream nail for this game. Even the "non-sentient" bugs talk and they even form coherent sentences and thoughts, unlike Hollow Knight.
>Hey you know how people said the Pantheons were a bit too much back in Hollow Knight?>Well what if in Silksong we made basically every boss as punishing as fighting an overcharmed Ascended boss in the Godhome hall of gods!Genuinely what were they thinking?
>>719971125it's in burning steps or whatever
>>719971147Kino. Pantheon had the most fun bosses. Except Flying Nosk.
>>719971147>dude what if we made trial of the fool a mandatory part of progression, not just for the true ending but for the regular fucking ending
>>719971147I hated the pantheons but I’m having fun.
>>719970764You can deflect their knives.
>the unravelledthere's no way they actually tested some of these fights
Beastfly was a fun fight.But what the fuck is the value of beast charm?
>>719971223ur a fool
I can't do anything with Hunter Marsh arena. And if I could reach phase 5 earlier, now I'm dying on stage 3 because flying fags don't let me heal at all.
>>719971147No, in fact I said that the bosses in HK were pathetically easy.
Is it me or is this game obsessed with turning the boss battles into a minion fest?
>>719970358Nevermind.>have to do wow-tier quests to progressWhat a fucking gay ass game
>>719960420>I feel like 1s zones were more memorable. Greenpath, Fog Canyon, Crystal Peak, the mountain, City of tears. They all had such distinct aesthetics with very distinct music and very distinct enemies.I fully agree, when I think of HK it's those areas + the abyss that stood out to me.
So is there a fake out boss and a true final boss like in hollow knight with the hk and rad. if so what are they?
>>719971286there is no value. it's objectively the worst crest in the game, and even if you like the lifesteal gimmick there's another crest later with a much better moveset that does that same gimmick but better.
>>719971286beastfly was rng
WORSTFIGHTEVER
>>719969495Doesn't do shit.
Do they deliver on the void stuff from last game? I think there's implications that shadelord is the god the cult is worshipping but nothings 100% confirmed as of near end game
>>719968362keep it the entire game for a very special reward
>>719970427yeah there's too many bosses that just feel like pattern luck rather than any actual skill. lace 2 is a big one, i beat her after many attempts and i never did figure out if there was a tell for her doing the jumping parry vs the dash forward parry, i would just dash away and if i got hit i got hit.
>>719968640it also has a special ending associated with it
>windy worm shithole>into the Last Runback>into shithole saw place where you need to rent rosariesWHAT IS THIS NONSTOP BUTTFUCKING LMAO
I have no idea how to start Mount Fay but there's a suspicious-looking ring right near the entrance so I assume I'll need a grapple of some sort later?
What the fuck is with the runback to the last judge? I'm almost certain I explored everything and there doesn't seem to be a shortcut or anything.
>>719969495no, it's part of a specific quest chain for the witch crest
>>719971585Everyone agrees that's the worst one.
>yarnaby and nuuwhy does hornet keep slapping hags
>>719971642>>719971642>>719971642>>719971642nu thred
I'm having a harder time with this boss fight in Bilewood than I had with the final boss. This is fucking dogshit, the runback is just completely ridiculous
>>719971554did i fuck up by giving it to her before the ending then? i don't have it anymore.
Hello, any missables or dying characters that I should be aware of?I found that Bird boss that disappears after the gypsies move in, but apparently the boss reappears after the gypsies move on, so it's not an issue
>>719971773there is an NPC that dies. it's the little pilgrim at bone bottom, the camp gets attacked and he gets killed. apparently you can learn his name before this happens but i didn't get that dialogue so there's definitely stuff i missed there, unsure what triggers the event but be careful.
>>719971680its not a good ending
>>719970239Liar, I only get 50! AHHHH, fuck this shit
>>719968574Even the boss there is fucking horrible. Good luck anon.
owo wats dis?
Where is the apostate key?
