Beast crest is objectively good.

I got to the Judge last night, he doesn't seem too hard but the runback to him because of that one flying enemy at the first pass you have to go under pisses me off so much. In fact those flying enemies in that area are the worst in the game so far not because they do damage, but because they fly away from you to a place you can't even jump and hit them with the sword every single fucking time.
>>
>>720286998
Bilewater is definitely easier with double jump
>>
>>720287015
If you ignore him completely, you can come back in Act 3 and get the prize for free.

I would but he blocks the path 50% of the time and I get hit and thrown into the sand worn shits cauing 3 health of damage making me fight the iron guys just to get my health back

The runback isn't that annoying its that there's no real shortcut

Just ran out of shards doing boss attempts. I think the game only gives you like 6-7 attempts worth of shards before you are totally drained. So what the fuck is the point of these tools? I don't ever want to hear dipshit faggots on /v/ say DURRR JUST USE YER TOOOOOOOOOOLS again. The game clearly doesn't expect you to use them for anything more than stray chaff clear during level exploration. Hard content? Don't even bother, you simply do not have enough ammo to make them a sustained part of your offense. Are Team Cherry fucking stupid? Literally what is the purpose of dumping 50 fucking not-spells on the player if using them is this punishing? Just to taunt you?

The first enemy you just gotta spring, jump into platform, and then jump again while still in sprint.
It's a matter of not hesitating. You WILL make it past. As shown here

Overall I am having fun but this gauntlet is bullshit, especially third room with entire floor covered in spikes. I feel like the more I am into act 3 the more tedious the game gets. At least they give you crow nest so you don't have to farm for rosaries to buy all the stuff from shops which are fucking expensive anyway
Also is there any meaningful reward for delivering supplies to Fleatopia besides rosaries?
>>
>>720287748
That feeling of anger is not having fun, it's an addiction. Games like League exploit that addiction to keep people hooked, and it's that exact same feeling that the "bro just take a break" posters in these threads describe.

The teleport mod allows me to retry a boss immediately, it cemented my opinion that backtracking is the worst.
Backtraking breaks immersion and the adrenaline from a boss, thing is you need it to beat them, my mind stays well focused on the patterns and the fun of the moment, while one or two minutes of backtracking makes me fall asleep, putting me in the worst condition for a boss fight.

I wouldn’t use that for anything than runbacks. The game has times where it needs to take you places and could potentiall softlock you.
Just uninstall it after you use it then reinstall it when you need it.

Finished up the Gourmand Quest for my third pale oil, that Chef boss for the Muckmaggot was pretty cool, although I think I should've done the quest earlier cause the attack patterns felt a bit easier than some of the other recent bosses.

it's boring and relatively very long compared to retrying judge.
judge retry: 30 seconds
ant retry: first wake up, then play needle, then wait for cutscene, then wake up again, then maneuver around the arena for no reason, then fight the pointless arena enemies. 2 minutes minimum for a fucking retry (4x longer)

Lace took me a good 20 or so tries. Took a break to speak to my gf after her job interview, and then hitless'd her.

Grand Mother Silk was another 4 tries.

I've just finally got into act 2 after 100%ing everything I could possibly find, my main issue so far at least from a story perspective is just how disconnected it is to Hollow Knight.
After everything that happened and how involved Hornet was in the shit that happened in Hallownest, it's so weird that she hasn't mentioned anything about it at all.
I'm not expecting like huge callbacks, but not even a slight remark is so odd.
>>
>>720290078
I think it's easy if you've played the first game, basically the same concept as Absolute Radiance's final phase, I imagine if you can't pogo well you'd have trouble though even if you've only played this one you should have learnt at that point

Significant callbacks are much later. Won't spoiler but I think it's good they didn't have her constantly bring up everything's relation to Hallownest to a bunch of pilgrims who obviously don't care.

Would have liked more subtle ideas on where the hell the pilgrims are coming from. If you're a pilgrim you're making a pigrimage from a place to a place, right.

Bosses spam adds because they expect you to insta-wipe them with traps, only you can only do this so many times obviously before you run out. Similarly there's a few fights with irritating mob arenas before them. Also, certain bosses who's big gimmick is never allowing a safe approach like Last Judge are also significantly eased by poison daggers. But, again, you've got at most 10 attempts. A full tool usage is 60 shards, and you get a maximum of 600? Then they're gone. Faggot retard mechanic desu.

why developers haven't made any good way to find secret breakable doors? i literly need to watch silksong pam online every time, there are so many secret things, secret areas and you don't know how to get into them, if you don't attack some special wall that hidden by some decorations

do they want us to buy some game manual with secrets written or something? i remember last metroid game, there was colored walls on map. here you need green rocket, there you need blue one, there are empty space on map

like 5-10 maps aer hidden behind some bullshit. i needed to seek how to get into "mist" area, how to get to phantom area, hot to get to sands of karak, green thicket, how im searching for this bluewater area entrance, and some areas liked to them. i completed story, there are nothing to lead me into somewhere.

Groal is the worst boss, no contest. Taking effectively 5 damage from 1 hit is absolute fucking aids and the runback is probably the worst in any "soulslike" game I've ever played. Honorable mentions to Voltvyrm and Craggler because they're fucking easy/stupid as hell
Lace 2, First Sinner and Karmelita are the top 3 bosses for me, really fast and fun

Far Fields Savage Beastfly. Groal is shit too, but it's mainly because of the runback and enemy gauntlet beforehand, rather than him being particularly awful in isolation. Far Fields Beastfly, on the other hand, is just nothing but bullshit.
Any boss fight purely reliant on field hazards and adds to manifest its difficulty isn't good.

See that’s part of why I think this game feels harder on the surface, is because there’s exponentially more build combos to play with than HK and I feel like I’m missing so many good ones. I hadn’t even considered mirror + injector and that’s not even including all the other combos you can probably come up with that might make it more generally useful, or even just situationally awesome for a single hard fight.

Like yesterday, 2 choir clappers at the end of the citadel gauntlet only seemed hard because I hadn’t discovered poison tacks yet. Once I tried those out and realized “oh these would be PERFECT” I cleared the fight in one go.

There's nothing wrong with the first Beastfly. No bullshit collapsing tiny arena in a pool of lava, and much more tolerable adds that don't leave even more field hazards in the already tight space. All you have to do is goad it into headbutting the trash mobs it spawns.

It's funny in a sick kind of way to see the Steam forums and reddit lose patience with this game in real time. During the first 72 hours, when they were all still in Marrow and Deep Depths it was "silk issue" and "games fine git gud." Now that theyre trickling into Act 2, where the bullshit really ramps up, the narrative is now "you're actually meant to stop playing for a day or two anytime you spend more than a few hours in a session, and that's a good thing because the game going out of it's way to consistently piss you off is ludo." I wonder how far into Act 2 they'll get before they finally accept that Team Cherry went too far in a few places and that they complaints they were dismissing came from people further into the game than them.

How are you people not pogoing to death everything that doesn't have anti-air? The worst move in the game an enemy can have is a simple jump, because it hits you when you're pogoing on them. The fucking Pure Vessel can't do anything as you're pogoing him into oblivion. Except jump.

>>720292181
The first fight is in a massive room with tons of free space to lure the slow mobs it spawns into the Beastfly headbutt. Unless you get preoccupied with *only* dealing damage to the Beastfly, you can't get trapped in the fight. Meanwhile, the lava blobs + collapsing platforms + 2 damage lava in the second fight can leave you with virtually no space to manoeuvre.
The ease of bouncing above flying mobs depends on your crest and the boss in play. Beastfly will likely be lining your vertical position up for a ram attack if you try that in the second fight; it's easier said than done.

It's true. If you find yourself unironically malding at every session but keep coming back anyway (which is the intended experience), you're not having fun by definition. You're hooked on the instinctive monkeybrain urge to punch something to piss you off but since it's a videogame instead of a rival monkey you can punch irl the urge is never satiated and you come back forever. Cynical ragebait design is a proven tactic to keep people crawling back even though the game makes them miserable.

Witch Crest is pretty fun. I went from

Reaper's up-attacks are garbage because they come out behind you for some reason, which is a giga cuckening, and the pogo being less directional is of only marginal benefit because you still can't chain it from a combination of the ricochet the swing speed and the enemies dashing back. Plus you swing as slow as molasses.

I switched to wanderer shortly after getting double jump and absolutely tore through everything ever since. Damage is high, you get a lot of silk due to high attack speed, shorter range doesn't matter.
Wanderer is monstrously strong and trivializes many tough encounters like grool - harpoon onto him and just bounce off his head a few times and he's dead.

Those roots you picked it up from.... weren't they grey?

>>720293917
Most bosses will keep moving around or parry you, and you can't get the openings. First Sinner is probably the only boss that lets you do this.

What does going to act 3 lock out?

>>720293917
The upgraded druid tool is so fucking good, single handedly carried me in the final boss. I was always shocked at how much silk I had when I didn't really use it at all before that

the guy at bellhart told me to take it to shellwood, but the place is huge, I don't remember what landmarks there are

>>720293847
like the beastfly it's a very easy and straightforward boss
only difficulty comes from the ads, so you learn how to use your magic and tools

nevermind, I got it, I forgot this NPC existed

I need a hint for the Parasite quest. Pavo told me to look for a hermit under the Grand Bellway, and the only person that comes to mind is the Architect, but she has nothing to say about it.
Where else should I try looking?
>>
>>720294192
Bellheart you doofus. Not Bellway.
>>
>>720294180
get ready

>>720291982
Now THIS is the "You didn't beat the game" build

Do we get to fight shakra in act 2?
>>
>>720294224
I am certain that fucker told me the Grand Bellway the first time, but his new dialogue is saying Bellhart, so alright.
>>
>>720291982
>straight up face tanking two minotaur beetles
jfc it took me like 10 tries and I had to save all my tools for it
granted I did it with just the first nail upgrade, but still

>>720294075
finish the quest then beat the final boss. you have to use your instrument instead of binding, kinda similar to the first game where you use your dream needle instead of attacking.
I finished the quest and beat the boss while cursed, still got the cursed ending

The bellway is the bell road you travel. He didn't say grand, he just said the bellway below

>>720294421
yeah that person has all of the possible upgrades. it would be weirder if it weren't easy

>>720287289
I was doing this wrong lol
Judge is still fine compared to Bilewater. Bilewater's saving grace is it's music.

I was doing this everytime and was confused why people were complaining about the runback

The raging conch shell runback is fucking AIDS mega cancer though

how do i get to fight POSHANKA?

>>720294761
look inside the chapel more
>>
>>720294741
Okay thanks you just reminded me I forgot about that guy locked in the cage anyway I'll go try that first
>>
>>720291982
Why do I think this person used Scarab and gave themselves all unlocks. There's no way he has all that by High Halls
>>
neat, but now I my game bugged out and the hermit doesn't give me any info...
>>
>>720294848
after her questline finishes you go to where you fight the owl boss and hit her ring sign. I finally beat her but I didn't get anything, maybe I did it wrong tho

kys, you have no business discussing game balance since at any slight inconvenience you will just mod the game

just ask
need to find master first

I don't understand how people have beaten the game already when the Unraveled fight three weeks of phases
>Dark Minion Phase 1
>Dark Minion Phase 2
>Normal Phase
>Light Minion Phase 1
>Spear Phase
>Normal + Spear Phase
How many more phases do I have to go? Currently paused in my fight, I decided to take a lunch break
>>
>>720290240
54h 16m for 100% for me, but no guides. i wasted a lot of time hitting every wall and jumping around like a schizo. mr mushroom also took a while

Well, I still don't have any idea who that hermit is meant to be since it wasn't the Seamstress, but the trusty barkeep has my back.

>>720295182
I don't think you can get some of those things until Act 3, but they're using it in Act 2
>>
Do I miss Shakra’s fight forever if I’m in act 3 now??
>>
>>720293260
Or the charge attack which is a full 180 sweep around the top of you, it's otherwise not very useful so I'm glad it has that.
>>
>>720295316
73 hours for 80% which is bullshit ive only palyed 6 hours today and it started at 61 today so theres something fucky going on withh the hours played

If you don't give the ancient weapon to the deep docks blacksmith, you can hold on to it to give to the architect instead who will upgrade it into a gun. I didn't get the option to give it to them at first, I had to spend 2 craftmetals on their other stuff before I got the option to give the ancient weapon

Put on the facetank build and win

Do you have to fight Shakra more than once for anything or is it just a flavor fight
>>
>>720295959
It actually shoots lasers

>>720295475
are you using any cheats that speed up the game?

Keep in mind average completion %. Lots of people will get to the credits with only what's needed and whatever they happened to find along the way without going out of their way to explore or anything like that. Just gotta finish as fast as possible to play whatever game is next. 30 hours in at tail end of act 2 rn.
>>
>>720296302
Speedtrannies already have got a 2 hours run.
>>
>>720296302
get gud?
if i have to imagine its a route that just rushes directly to phantom then hook then 3 songs and directly to silk mother with 0 dmg upgrades
you basically have to do every boss hitless

Is it possible to do true ending in under 5 hours without glitches?
