Genuinely the best boss fight thus far I've encountered. Felt both extremely challenging, but also fair. Every time I died I knew that it was my own fuck up for being too slow/out of position.

>>720184912
Equip Wanderer's Crest, position yourself in the middle, jump directly up and pogo off the sawblades, at maximum pogo height initiate double jump and then pogo again

the renting bench is actually better then the 60 beads bench which is saying something.

Doing this on non-architect crests is a nuisance because it's when you gain a ninth unit that it morphs into regenerating masks
You have to smack both lifeblood fly hives - the one inside wormways, and the one to the far left of the map in bonegrave right next to the reaper crest shrine

Why would you go there? There is nothing useful, it is a noobtrap. You come back much later in the game to 100% your map and that is it.

>>720185634
start from the little raised platform to the right
do a running jump to the left
you can just barely make it to the first floating platform if you have double jump and grapple

>>720185224
I don't know I think I liked HK better
Silksong loves to have annoying platforming sections everywhere which makes exploration more annoying, but to me the real problem is the lack of difficulty in the late game
At least HK had path of pain, it's weird that this game doesn't have a hard platforming section given how much it loves to put spikes everywhere
>>
>>720185570
Which is why you use the Architect so you can refill your tools wihout having to sit at the bench.

I never played HK, nor will I, but tell me about Hornet.
Is she a girl boss?
Is she like a Protoman/Bass type of character?
Did everyone soiface when it was announced she would be the MC of this game?
>>
>>720184924
WHERE DID YOU FIND IT

>>720185042
SHE'S IN SHELLWOOD
>>
Act 3 lore spoilers. Last thread I talked about allegories but I guess I should be clearer. So Hornet says at some point that Pale Beings, her kind, only allow two fates, devotion or destruction. While in the middle of a quest that’s obviously about colonization. Honestly though I found this kinda weird coming from her. In Hallownest we didn’t see any destruction. PK just made deals with the other tribes, so clearly there’s more than two fates.
>>
>>720185548
I didn't see no warrior flea...
>>
>>720185787
She's a really old spider whos seen and done most things normal bugs never get around to. She's a warrior, respectful and calm. People did not soiface over her because it was a milestone goal reached before Hollow Knight was even out
>>
For bros in act 3, when you're trying to find the hearts. Is anyone else having an issue where the icon they give you on the map doesn't match with your player icon depending on how you zoom the map? I can't tell if I'm in the right place trying to do something obscure or just completely off of where I should be. Specifically the far fields one.
>>
The "secret found" sound effect is kinda underwhelming compared to the first game.

>>720186112
Yeah, but you need 4 crests to unlock the first vesticrest slot. Vesticrests are the universal slots that apply to every crest. You need 4 crests, and to use 9 lockets to unlock the first slot which is yellow. I don't know how many crests and lockets you need to unlock the second because I only went back to Eva late in the game and when I talked to her again it unlocked the second. Beast crest is basically a way to perma unlock a slot for compas before act 2.
>>
>>720186224
it's slightly faster than regular backdash
not really worth to commit it to muscle memory honestly unless you're really dedicated to it

>>720185787
She was a semi-neutral NPC from the first game that was mostly a cold emotionless Hunter, who gets owned by the player in game 1. She cedes to him so he can save the kingdom, and can help him achieve victory in certain endings.

For the most part she was kind of just a side-npc that some people liked until she got announced as a playable DLC character, and then announced as her own game

Hunter is alright. It is a very offensively minded crest and has great in battle movement. It is dogshit for traveral and makes jumping puzzles a pain. The Wanderer crest is basically the hollow knight moveset and is great for traversing but the slots it offers suck for stacking tools gears towards combat. Beast crest sucks and is basically all or nothing offensivly minded which is terrible because this game is tuned around poking until you find an oppurtinity and then unleashing. Reaper is booty. It is slow, the hitboxes don't match the animation, but it has great slots so whatever. Architect is big dick shit since this game was built around the idea of tools. Architect has dogshit down attck but can be mitigated by how OP tools make you. Witch is like Beast, but better. Okay slots, okay needle, and an okay ability. Shaman is big dicked magic build, but magic is so limited in this game compared to hollow knight it realy doesn't have a chance to shine as much as it could.

tl;dr Wanderer is the king of exploration. Architect is great for most bosses. Hunter is situationally incredibly but kinda mid otherwise.
>>
>>720186738
hollow knight is just slow as balls
that's one of the biggest criticisms people had of the game
if you're not having fun just stop playing and play silksong instead, the dash upgrade you get like 1 hour into the game makes you faster and more agile than the hollow knight guy can ever be even with every upgrade
>>
>>720186784
fractured mask saved my ass countless times

damage values for tools? is the upgrade worth it? I assume it's only like 10% which won't do anything for reducing mob hit count

I think First Sinner is my new favorite boss. Fast, but fair, and really fun and she doesn't seem to do contact-damage so I was incentivized to chaser her damage without minding spacing. I did notice she did do contact damage while stunned, but during the bulk of the fight I was just dashing her down. I'd be happy if they removed contact damage from all bipedal enemies.

Wanderer crest is available almost right from the start. Just by the simple key, enter the wormways, and then drop down to the crypt. You can get it like a half an hour into the game. That's what I didn just fucking around and exploring on the day the game released.

Dudes, this whole area is literally hell.
You have to burn a $500 key to access it, and it is literally the most miserable and horrible experience I can imagine.
Every other platform has one of those fire slimes on it, and there's the flying bomb throwers, and then there's a new type that just throws fucking grenades at you, and then there's giants that are faster than you unless you spam sprint, and are too high to jump over, and can jump through platforms. And if you miss any jumps you're dropped in pit with the giant where you're basically guaranteed to die.
Jesus Christ, man. Why does this game just fucking hate you?
Not only that but there's stuff that you want to backtrack for, so clearing it once isn't even enough, you gotta keep doing it.
>>
>>720187258
yeah it's very slow all the way through
once you get the dash that's about where the game peaks in how fast you can go, you get shit like double jump and such but you're still waddling around spamming dash 15 hours in
in silksong you get the dash super early and it's also a sprint too so you can just run around like fucking sonic when you need to go somewhere
i can't guarantee you'll like silksong but it's definitely more enjoyable than hollow knight on pretty much every level

Man, Cross Stitch kinda feels like shit. You spend silk to hit your counter, stun yourself for 2 seconds, do like one nail worth of damage, and then take contact damage from whatever inevitably moved on top of you.

I think I'm missing a core mechanic of the game. Why is the base of the nail glowing sometimes? It can't be just another indicator for my silk being full.

It's probably one of those things that gets stronger the better you know the bosses, since it lets you greed extra hits when you normally wouldn't be able to (rather than taking up an opening where you could have just attacked or used a tool). But spells are such a stupidly powerful resource that it does feel bad using one that's so niche. Especially playing casually, where you can reasonably carry like 30 nail hits' worth of damage into the boss room with your spells.

If you think you'll use it, sure. It's a cool grenade. It's really shard-hungry though. You can only hold 3 shots (before upgrades) and each one costs you like 30 shards to refill at the bench. The damage is good but not that much better than other options.
>>
>>720189610
nah
>>
>>720189639
It's because by this point, you're used to entering umbrella mode with your second A press in midair and the double jump alters your moveset instead of extending it

it felt like that for me too but it feels way better after a bit

>>720188492
like the iframe dash spell, it's only really worth using on shaman crest. when you're not limited to only one spell, it's actually very nice to have. too bad tools are overpowered so spell builds are objectively not great.
>>
>>720189610
Nah, after you get the songs, there's still two bosses to do. And unless you do even more extra stuff, you can just reload your save after the final boss.

Met the last judge last night. The run back to the boss feels bullshit, but it's fine. What's not fine is that she kills me in 2 hits and the obviously blocked shortcut right before the arena that is probably going to open from the other side.

You need to use tools and spells liberally. Silksong is an incredibly weird game about not fighting enemies fairly at all. Every time you kill an enemy normally by hitting it 4 times, it'll give you enough resources to oneshot another enemy with a spell and then those two enemies will give you enough shards that you can afford to cheese out a third enemy with ranged attacks.

You are not getting an dmg upgrade in at least 10 hours, bro. And it doesn't feel as impactful as it did in HK. You get more tools and option to experiment with tho. Start doing dash attack attack, pogo attack combo. Silksong want you to learn combat, not just power through till next big level up to roll over everything.

Even if he did realize that the Dream Nail was a thing and bugs could enter into the dream that Radiance was making, he didn't have the one thing that would make the plan work. Essence. It was only through those long years of the kingdom suffering that made enough essence available for the dream nail to awaken and enter the dream. It was also a pretty big gamble, since the reality is that they still needed a bug to contain the majority of the Radiance to access the dream, you also need to weaken said bug enough for their mind to be in a state to access AND you then need to be strong enough to kill Radiance in the dream world. If any of that was miscalculated, not only does Radiance get to remanifest in the physical world, but also gets to steal the body of the one they shoved it into, which adds to the power of this God. Honestly, Hallownest just got super fucking lucky.

The shortcut opens from the top, and is generally accessible much later, so I think that part of the map is just bugged.
...But, it is possible to get into the Citadel without going through the Judge. And now that I think of it, it should be possible to open up that shortcut for the fight? But that's really going out of your way.
I suggest equipping the charm that reduces fire damage, it really helps with phase 2.

Okay speedrun bros I think I've got it now.
I've been planning a route for a while now and my problem always revolved around how to deal with the High Halls fight.

I think the only way to reasonable beat this entire thing is with the parry skill. So we had straight to Phantom and probably farm enough rosaries to get the trap from forge daughter.

I haven't timed yet though if its faster to get the fleas and travel via caravan or just beeline moorfly.

I killed the Widow with the Silkspear and Hornet automatically pulled herself to it and began the Bind QTE. That was cool. Does she normally fly toward them to do that if you kill it with a normal attack or is it a special thing with the SIlkspear?

Groal is actually extremely fun. The problem is that his runback is awful even with the secret bench and you need to do a gauntlet as well. Beastfly 2 is actually easier than the Chapel fight too honestly.

Genuinely, I don't think I hate a single boss fight in this game. The arena fights piss me off more and Beastfly 1.

Most of the time on walls you want to be using the dash. If you hold in the direction of the wall and then dash, you run up it. This also has the effect of, if you dash up the end of a wall section, you'll vault up it. This even works when there are spikes on the top of the wall too, like in Bilewater against the frogs.

theres a room on top of the bell beast on far fields with a target at the entrance
i dont know the trigger but there will be four targets and a dude that hides when you get near, hit all four targets with one boomerang and he comes out and asks for the boomerang, give it to him, sit on a bench and come back and he will have left you a gift

There's one where you just do Gma Silk normally, and another where you have to get "cursed". Being cursed locks your crest so no tools, and it locks your gauge so no healing, but Gma Silk is consistent enough that the drawbacks shouldn't be too hindering

True end is once you hit act 3, you have to do literally every act 2 quest to even get access though, so unless you just don't fight Gma Silk and/or cure the curse before doing gma silk you can't really accidentally enter it

I spent like 35 minutes trying to beat the flea challenge where you have to keep them off the ground by hitting them.

>>720191763
Nah, if I did the route flawlessly, I would have 3 minutes left on the timer. You can take it many different ways and as long as you don't get hit, you will be fine. That is the biggest problem, getting hit and taking a whole minute off your time, two if it was two masks. Remember that bumping into a wall at dash speed counts as "damage" and will still knock off a minute.

Act 3
>>
>>720186385
Just seems like a suboptimal crutch, since it's a percentile increase wouldn't you get the most out that blue slot with reaper crest, architect, or something else with longer range then make up for the slower attack speed with flea brew? Longnail/mark of pride in HK was always good because you only had the one combat style but here you have some options to really exploit the strengths of each crest.

>>
>>720192046
it's GOTY because what the fuck else came out this year that was more than like a 7/10? even e33 was only really a contender because of lack of competition and this blows that game out of the water.

How did they ruin a good boss fight. The past two were similar to pure vessel and nkg where when you lose, it's 100% your fault? Now she's difficult to see because it's black on black and ALSO it's extremely easy to get checkmated and take unavoidable damage.
Well, I'll beat her eventually but assuming this is the last boss I'll say that I only bothered completing this game because I'm stubborn.

Go through the bottom of shellwood instead of the top and go through the spa instead of the bottom.

Go this way instead
>>
>>720192341
go through citadel spa instead and you can get to that first bench on shellwood from the first room
>>
>>720192341
Oh god no, you are wasting time on that first part. Go all the way to just before the Bellway and ascend there. Practice that portion, it is a whole minute faster. That said, the only way to do it any faster is getting double jump. Otherwise you are doing a bunch of pogo in the Blasted Steps and that slows you down.
>>
>>720192392
I might actually try Sinner's Row if it's shorter. After clearing out the enemies first, of course.
I don't think the roaches respawn without a bench. Do the leeches fuck the meat at all?
>>
>>720192341
only differences between your route and the one i took are that in shellwood i went up the middle shaft with the flowers instead of the right side like you did and i went through the spa in choral chambers because it had no enemies
>>
Does shade cloak exist in this game?
>>
>>720191764
If you play the Needolin while he's alive, he says he's the last one "alive" and how everyone else is "dead".
>>
>>720192341
That's close to the route I did, just going through the middle vertical room in shellwood instead, and going through the citadel spa at the end. I made it in time despite taking two hits, so you should have some leeway.
You might want to get the tool that allows you to run faster if you haven't gotten it already
Double jump also speeds up all the vertical sections of the route significantly
>>
>>720192175
bro us shitters just tryna get through the game, not "exploit the strengths of each crest" while butt chugging flea brew every other fight
wanderer is a good all-around crest because it doesn't really have any shortcomings aside from a bit less range and only 1 tools slot. the latter is only a problem on the enormously long fight in the high forum or whatever's the name, and the first... isn't really that big of a deal desu, though I understand buffing it slightly with a mod if air combat is what you're struggling with in particular

I don't know what to tell you. It's a great fight; it's basically an inversion/building upon of Lace 2 for the first two phases where it's all about figuring out when it's safe to bonk her from the top, or carefully aligning yourself to smack her when she deploys six sawblades in Phase 2. Phase 3 is all about dodging and getting in a hit now and then, it's supposed to be completely fucking overwhelming.

Yes.

Pretty sure he's right here
>>
>>720192724
There's a tube nearby. From where the Architect is IIRC go right, down, left, down, right, up, hit a switch to make a bridge, should be the next room.
>>
I swear they made the compass an item again for the stupid meme
>>
>>720192816
While I think it's dumb, it is in line with the other yellow charms. Most of them are not super impactful, so equipping the compass isn't the sacrifice it was in HK.

Just got it, I thought I hit that lever already.

I didn't even make into the Choral Chambers...

Christ, is my game fucking bugged or something? How are you guys talking about having this much leeway WITH getting hit? How are you talking like saving an entire minute would make a difference? I'm not even getting close. What is this shit?
Do I just play that slow? How? I'm sprinting down every straightaway, I'm getting (almost) every jump on the first try. That fucking room with the scales in Gates is slowing me down, but even if I did that flawlessly I still can't see that making up for the lost time. How much fucking faster do I have to go?
I hate this. I hate this shit. I hate having to think about this, I hate that I'm going to NEED to do this at some point, I hate that it's in the game, I hate hate hate HATE this shit. Just give me a fucking no-hit run, I can do that, don't make me part-time as a fucking speedrunner.

The compass is unironically only useful on your first revisit
You're not directionally challenged, are you anon?
>>
>>720192806
it's a room with 2 flyfaggots, nothing else
>>
>>720192816
There's so little competition for yellow charms that I've had it on the whole time and not cared.
>>
>>720192883
A lot of those horizontal switch bridges don't stay switched cause otherwise they'd block off a vertical shaft permanently.
>>
>>720192887
Are you using that item that increases sprint speed for silk?
>>
>>720192887
Equip the fast running trinket and slurp flea brew before any straight paths.
>>
>>720192878
>>720192929
only because the builds are scuffed by the colors
HK system was pretty fair with different costs then they had to shove this
>>
>>720192887
the scale room is way easier with double jump
>this much leeway WITH getting hit
i never said that other anons are just bullshitting i got there with a bar and a half to spare hitless and there was NO other way i could save time
>>
>>720192971
Silksong has a ton of absurd builds once you unlock more stuff

Architect is legit broken
>>
>>720192878
silkspeed anglets and arguably the spider exoskeleton are pretty damn good tho
arguably also the thing that lets you hang on the wall without sliding down
compass being its own thing, as well as magnet, is just a fuck you. there's no reason they should take up anything
>>
>>720192945
>>720192956
i didn't use either of those and had almost 3 bars left
i have no idea what anon is doing wrong to lose that much time
>>
>>720193000
trips of truth
architect is a you didnt beat the game tier crest
>>
>>720192991
I got there after taking three hits and didn't even have the double jump yet. These guys are honestly doing something wrong. Even if you take a hit, you should just keep running. Don't fucking stop under any circumstances.

I had speedy anklets and double jump and took this route. I had time to spare even taking one hit.
Didn't pre-clear the path or use flea brew.
>>
>>720192971
I haven't gotten any of the act 2 crests. But I think all the act 1 ones are fine except beast. If wanderer had two red slots it would be objectively the best and there would be no reason to use the others. Beast not getting even one blue is dumb, though.
>>
>>720193060
Actually that route's slightly wrong cause I had to go into Blasted steps one screen further to the right but I drew the vertical line starting from the wrong spot. But the rest is correct.
>>
Go right for the brew you idiots.
Sinner's Road isn't that hard and its way more chill.
>>
>>720193112
>to the right
The left. God damn it it's late.
>>
>last judge religion-of-peace'd right in my fucking face
the skull mask charm is the best charm in the game
>>
>>720193090
Beast is THE facetank crest
>>
>>720193117
no you only take that path for the songclaive delivery blasted steps is objectively faster
>>
>>720193006
For me it's the dice. It almost seems like they're programmed to detect dramatic tension. I've had so many 1 mask flubbed clashes salvaged with a blue flash.

whats that good for

>>720193060
I did sinners route my first try. Ran into a wall like 3 times but still got there.
>>
>>720193201
The You didn't win tool
I'm pretty sure some bragging fucks just used Pollip Cogflies
>>
can i save&quit cheat for delivery requests?
>>
>>720193201
Red corkscrew thing is better because it penetrates, can be spammed, bounces so can hit again and does massive damage
>>
>>720192945
>>720192956
I have the sprint trinket.

>>720192991
Fuck it, I'm not doing this until I have double jump. Forget it. +2 damage is enough.

>>720193060
>straight up through the Blasted Steps pit
What the fuck how.
>>
>>720193201
>6-8 charges
>one is just about enough to kill a weak mob
nah
>>
>>720193260
You couldn't in HK. I doubt they'd forget that this time.
>>
>>720193260
No that makes mustaed gas
>>
>>720193261
with red corkscrew at least you have to aim them, cogfly literally just free damage
>>
>>720193279
>What the fuck how.
I fucked up drawing the path and forgot about that bit of the Blasted Steps you have to take to go up one level. My bad.
>>
>>720193318
>cogfly literally just free damage
the damage is fairly pitiful tho
>>
>>720193260
Just go get the double jump. By that time you should have gitten guded.
>>
>>720193201
This plus poison and short/longnail are like, the only good tools. I'm almost done 100%ing and I haven't bothered with the others. One of the many reasons I suspect they didn't playtest ANY part of the game AT ALL
>>720193252
Cry about it luhmao. Yes I will cheese the bosses in one try and there is nothing you can do about it
>>
>>720193292
You could cheat Delicate Flower deliveries by bench warping apart from the very first one. But in this game deliveries disappear from your quest log when you quit out I think.
>>
>>720193279
get the double jump and try pre clearing this is retarded but you only have to do it once
>>
>>720193000
I like the default crest for the focus damage, it goes crazy if you can dodge
>>
>>720193201
I've yet to kill a boss with these because i keep running out of shards and have to just do it the hard way then.
>>
>>720193358
Try it with Pollip. They just delete all those annoying trashmobs even in act 3 and do good damage against bosses, though not as effective depending on the boss
>>
>>720193370
They don't.
>>
>>720193479
>Try it with Pollip
i'm a wanderer chud
>>
>>720193379
oh is that all focus does? deal more damage? i think people will still prefer wanderer lmao
