POSHANKA
which of the following are obtainable before act 3:magnetite dicememory crystalpin badgerosary cannontacksvolt filament
where the fuck is the sinners road benchshould I just fuck off and go to blasted steps?
I can't do it anymore bros. I can't finish act 3. I stopped having fun after act 2 and now I've just been trying to finish the game while being miserable and angry. It's been a fun ride bros, but I'm gonna call it here.
>>720636010Pin Badge and Volt Filament are act 3-only.All others are obtainable in act 2.
>>720636043just take a break, baby.
I'm going to assume that getting the 3 songs and then getting to the heart of the citadel is the first ending you can get right? Also has anyone datamined what the actual specific damage increase you get from oil upgrades is?
>>720635929>Rosary canonThis thing is ass right? Its does mediocre damage and is harder to use than other tools (locks you in place) and on top bankrupts you to useDoes it have any use case?
>>720636036climb the shaft close to the start
>>720636058You can get volt filament in act 2
i would take another blue slot over the 3rd spellthe 3rd spell is useless all you need are a situational offensive spell and parry
>>720636094>hasnt even done the basic ending>wants datamined damage valueswhats wrong with todays gamers.
>>720636010>magnetite dicein act 1 in blast desert or whatever. you have to win the stupid dice game a bunch.
>7 years of work experinced and enjoyed in less than 2 weekskino but sad getting 100% done
>>720636154I fail to see any correlation between those 2 points.
>>720636043what is triggering you exactly?
>>720636139Truly? I thought you needed the super jump to access that area.
>>720636064I've been doing that. For the first two acts I played 8-10 hours a day. Third act meanwhile has been going at a snail's pace, maybe one or two hours tops. I want to finish the game because if I don't now I probably never will but the enjoyment is long gone.
>>720636157they were jerking off for 5 years
>>720636010All of them except pin badge.
>>720636137where the prisoner who doesn't want to be freed is? I dont see how to go any higher
>>720636058>>720636139>>720636156thanks anons. ill go track all those down then
>>720636229okay then fuck off, what do I fucking care dude.
>>720636043starts at 5 damageeach upgrade adds 4 damagefully upgraded is 21
>>720636234This really shows with all the ryonage homages
How do you feel about Hornet's characterization? It wasn't what I was expecting but she's pretty great.
I got the heretic key and was able to open some keylocks in the slab eventually finding a mask piece and some loreIm missing a tunnel (above the right bench) its entrance is covered by garbage and rubble so i assume its actually an exit point breakable from the other side and the fact that i can see it is a bug.Can you please tell me if i missed a pathway or something here in the slab that would lead me there? or if its for later? Thank you very mucho
>>720636228You can wall jump into the gap
>>720636248jesus christ bro try going to one of the only two other rooms you can reach at this point then.
>>720636297She's bland as cardboard but that's fine for a protagonist (whose sexy)
>>720636262You should know that nothing is missable except for one achievement: beating GMS while cursed and two optional Hunter's Journal entries: the two duels.
>>720636228it's buggy but you can double jump to it>>720636234given atleast one of the devs is a huge tranny dick sucker this is probably true in some ways
>still can't beat High Halls and unlock even normal end
>>720636339yeah, i just want to do as much as possible before progressing the act. autism i guessif you know how to get the garamond duel though, thatd be good. he seems to have just posted up in songclave for me
i still dont understand what you get after defeating lace
>>720636505Dude just spam boomerag/cogwork/conch/caltrops/literally any of the giga OP damage tools
>>720636525>autism i guessI did the same thing.The Zazabart duel can be found in the open area next to Songclave.
Is Act3 even narratively satisfying? I'm pretty happy with the Act2 ending.
>>720636145They needed a spell version of the architect crest. it just so happens that tools and traps are much more diverse than spells
I just died to double moss mommy
>>720636604Act2 end is way better, only good thing about Act 3 is the bosses
>>720636207No one thing specifically, but the entire act is such a drag. I already know I missed some fights in act 2 which sucks, the entire void shit is really bland and boring, every normal enemy turned into a health sponge and I'm just going through old areas with a grey filter. Even the abyss was disappointing as hell (though the escape sequence was cool). It feels like such a letdown after the amazing adventure that was act 2. Somewhere along the line I just lost my enjoyment and can't seem to get it back.>>720636272Idk you asked
>>720636626Acceptable if it's Act 3 Moss Mommies.
I’ve got 3rd pin upgrade. High Halls should be beatable now, r-r-r-right?
>>720636604>I'm pretty happy with the Act2 ending.You were happy with GMS taking over Hornet's mind and body?
What the fuckI need 1 of those niggers for the journal and I missed this one and now he's dead, did I fuck my save
>>720636543>cogworkI don't have craftmetal.And btw why did they hide all new crests behind act 3/secrets/whatever?
>>720636542A mesugaki gf
>>720636312If you have all keys you should be able to 100% the slabThe tunnel you see on the map is a shortcut from the rightmost shaftYou're also missing a secret area in the little room at the bottom
>>720636234>heroine is choked unconscious>gets a seed planted into her, basically nutted inside>has to get an abortion ASAP otherwise it's a bad ending>heroine is captured by bandits>wakes up naked and locked in a cell without any weapons>she can find the bandits smelling her clothes in the next room>heroine saves a shady guy>he offers her bath in his cozy spa>if she accepts, you can see him peeping from a small holeteam cherry knew 100% what they were doingand though I hate to admit it, some parts in silksong made me harder than most hentai games
I have spent literally the entire game using the 3 knives tool they're pretty cool
>>720636626I died to her too and lost my souls for the only time in the whole game on the runback like a retard
>>720636689Nothing is missable. See: >>720636339
>>720636662It's the ones in weavenest atlaI'm not good at videogames okay
>>720636635This but the other way around
>>720636614still have no idea why the slot number is so harshlike the silk economy is fucking rough in this game it's not like i could spam spells that much
>>720636043Most of Act 3 kinda sucks. Don't worry too much about it. You can rush the end boss and ignore the filler crap.
>>720636701>>heroine saves a shady guyDon't forget that this same shady guy sets up a flea minigame where he can look up her skirt every time she floats to get from one flea to another.
Working on Widow. Got her(?) to her second phase. Swapped to Wanderer's Crest so I can work in some cheeky attacks while avoiding her horizontal dash
>>720636701these scenes don't play out that way, it's just your porn addicted mind
>>720636604Red Memory and "the scene" are fanservice kino.
>>720636094+5 +4 +4 +4 if I remember right from reading somewhere>>720636248You pass him on the way in on the second zone from Greymoore
>>720636802wtf he really is me
>>720636698found the secret area just before reading thiswill do the shortcut once i finish wht i found herethank you anon
>>720636802FUCK, HOW THE FUCK DID I NOT REALIZE THIS
>>720636312can't believe the slab stole all the bilewater benches
>>720636505Throw tacks. Those faggots die to tacks. Also finish Shakra's quest. She'll appear as a summon equivalent for that boss.
Already 100% the game days ago but i have to agree with some people who complain about contact damage. I don't hate contact damage per se, but you losing the same amount of HP whether the boss is stunned and you walk into it or you are hit when he is charging towards you is indeed bullshit. I would rather you losing 1 HP for the former and 3 HP for the latter than losing 2 HP for both.
>>720636738The two duels, he means Shakra and Pinstress ?
Eva evolved my hunter crest but I'm a Reaperfag, where do I evolve that one
>>720636689There's another hanging around somewhere, either the Marrow or the Far Fields I forgot where precisely but I've seen it
>>720636964Nope; Shakra and Garmond and Zaza.
>>720636689Yep, you're fucked.
>>720636976hunter only.keep slotting all your memory charms though she has other better rewards.
Kino….. T_T
>>720636964Pinstress is not missable.
>>720636964The knight guy on the steedI didn't get him
>>720636940>finish Shakra's questWhat quest? Collecting all maps of the areas? Isn't this is for Act 3?
>DUDE WHAT IF WE MADE EVERY PLATFORMING SECTION AFTER ACT 1 SPIKES AND LAVA AND POGOS AND SHIT LOL?>OH AND MAKE ROCKS AND STEAM AND LAVA FALL EVERYWHERE>AND MAKE SURE THAT THE ENEMIES IN THE RUN UP TO THE PLATFORMING """CHALLENGE""" HAVE A GORILLION HP AND MASSIVE AOE ATTACKShonestly I should've listened and dropped this game after deep docks. It never gets better.
>>720636701vorefags are also eating good in this game
Fantastic game, fantastic last boss even though I had to save and quit to menu twice on her.Just need the under 5 hours and mushroom ones to finish everything.
>>720636505Use silk rune to wreck everything, hunt for items if you are still stuck, etc.It isn't that hard. I am shocked people get stuck on it
>>720637059They even nerfed the damage from spikes n shit. It was two masks before.7 years
>>720636783The problem is I'm also stuck at all three heart quests - I can't beat Karmelita, the coral tower gauntlets or even fucking Seth lmao. I probably could do it if I locked in but I'm so fucking demoralised I can't even bring myself to attempt it, I just want to facetank and spam attack until they drop so I could see the credits.
>>720637009what a shit fucking game.
>>720636680I think it was fairly clear that we consume her power at the end. It was hinted numerous times that pursuing this path will lead to Hornet usurping the position of the God of Pharloom for herself, but that it is not the most noble option.
>>720637059lol you posted it again.
>>720636694only 1 crest is in act 3
>>720636821all of those happen exactly as that anon describes however (except the smelling her clothes one theyre crossdressing as her)
whats the best farming spot in act 3
just beat first sinner, why the fuck they give xer 1 million HP??the fight feels pointlessly long
>>720637136you got filtered. At least you beat the normal ending.Most people couldnt do the super boss of hollowknight 1 either.
>>720637193it takes maybe 1-2 minutes
>>720637001Yeah I got one, but you need 2
Karmelita would have been so sick if not for the utterly pointless mini gauntlet beforehand
>>720636976You can't "evolve" other crests, but Eva will give you universal tool slots (technically an upgrade for every crest) if you find more crests and use memory lockets on them.
>>720636701Hornet getting hit by butt slam attacks... erotic...
>>720637126>I am shocked people get stuck on itAct 2 feels just awful to explore and play. I wanted interconnected map from HK where I constantly discover new upgrades and paths not shit I got in Silksong. Act 1 was peak.
>>720636043I don't blame you anon, act 3 is quite rough and not very interesting at all, have you tried just abusing tools? you can pretty much just use tools and beeline the campaign to beat it, the side content really isn't worth it anyway
>>720637059christ this was painful to watch
Is there something I can find that makes this easier or am I just supposed to be smacking them until they look kind of aligned right
>>720637285it's not pointlessit's a part of the challenge
>>720636689There's 3 of those if you let that one behind the gate run out. There should be one in Memorium and another in Karmelita's area.
>>720637193you have to use run combo
>>720637059Have you tried not being shit, and actually pogoing on the spikes?
>>720636157>picQuite the revelation
>>720637039Act 2. If you collect all her maps she'll go hunt down her master with a quest on one of the boards if I remember right. Do that quest and she'll appear in high halls before the boss to talk to. The quest will help with some other stuff too.
>>720637083>mushroom onesyou could've done this while doing the normal true end. it starts to the right of flea town
>>720637230Oh the second one's easy, it's in the Memorium
>>720637293What does that have to do with that fight not being that hard if you have any idea what you are doing?
>>720637267i like it, and it takes less than a minute so its not as bad as most other runbacks
So turns out the best solution for Karmelita is to hang in the air in the centre of the arena the entire time and wait until she isn't spamming projectiles for a second to get some scratch damage in. Ebin boss.
>>720636976what the hell does the "evolved" hunter crest even do. I've noticed no difference.
>>720637193because you let her heal herself>>720637317exactly
>>720635929I completed her mission to find her master, how do I get to duel her? I'm currently in chapter 3.
>>720637136There's a way to skip one if you do the Green Princes quest you can take his heart instead
What's the best farm spot in Act 1?I rest at the bench at Mossgrove and kill the rolling cunt, the jump cunt, and the two puke cunts for about 35 rosaries a pop and rerest at bench and repeat right now.
>>720637413Just cheese her with poisoned tacks
>>720636156Interesting, I was able to buy that off the Girdle in chapter 3.
>>720637424god her legs are so sexy no one outpizzas the hut
>>720637413Slash the daggers she throws and you can fight pretty aggro on her. You have to return to neutral a bit away from her through.
>>720637413sometimes she would just spins into you so it's not that safe. Though i'm probably just slow
>>720637193If she's visible you need to hook her. Spamming that is how you beat her. It's an insanely fun fight.
>>720637419look at the wheel in the top leftas you hit things, segments around the outside fill upeach filled one = more damagegetting hit depletes it to zero
>>720636636You're not missing that much anon, the final boss for the game is just Lace for a 3rd goddamned time
>>720637446>I'm currently in chapter 3.you missed it :(
>>720637152Pale beings are immortal; they cannot die, only change form.The reason why Hornet can "absorb" GMS is because her existence (partially) came from her.When she absorbs GMS, they effectively become one being, with GMS being the "winner" as signified by the change in UI and Hornet's body taking GMS' shape.The only option to remove GMS entirely is to use void, as void is inexistence itself.
>>720637224it takes me like 5-6 minutes>>720637351>>720637429fuarkkk, if i know she can heal i will play more aggresively
>>720637395>that fight not being that hardIt's hard. > you have any idea what you are doing?I don't.
>>720637525she has a tell which you can dash away and avoid it leading to a punish
>>720637531NTA but where does she go after the sands of bullshit map?
zanzibar... :(
>>720637446too late for you
Friendly reminder that Reaper is objectively the worst crest in the game and a noob trap.Lowest DPS, the slow pogo leaves you wide open, shit silk generation even with the special ability crutch.If you're still playing Reaper, switch to Hunter/Wanderer and the game will get a lot easier.
>>720637332Cool, no idea what karmelita is yet but I'll look forward to it, thanks
>>720637540Nice headcanon.
>>720637549>fuarkkk, if i know she can heal i will play more aggresivelyyes she does the same animation to heal that hornet does. try not to attack her and see it
>>720637557>It's hard.Not really. I got surprised and died once but I beat it no problem the second time.Silk rune fucks up everything there.
>>720636701Don't forget the vore monsters that attack you and you have to press buttons rapidly to escape them.
>>720637483>>720637517I already beat her. Didn't know you could counter the flying discs though.
>>720637606I completed the entire game in Reaper, so... Am I a GOD gamer?I just don't get the downplaying, it has an excellent pogo and great range. + the silk spawning is amazing for infinite healing
Friendly reminder that Reaper is objectively the most honest crest in the game and a gods tool.Perfect DPS, the wide pogo gives you enjoyable platforming, phenomenal silk generation especially with the special ability.If you're still playing Reaper, switch to Hunter/Wanderer and the game will get a lot easier, you will however not have beaten it.
>>720637540It doesn't matter since in the Act 3 ending GMS is still alive through Lace and has acquired her Hornet gf.
Friendly reminder that Wanderer is objectively the worst crest in the game and a noob trap.Lowest DPS, the short range leaves you wide open, shit silk generation without with the special ability crutch.If you're still playing Wanderer , switch to Hunter/Reaper and the game will get a lot easier.
>>720637672>Silk runeWhat is Silk rune? Can you post webm of this fight?>inb4: 10 masks 3 upgrades act 2 is fully explored
>>720636701>Heroine can bathe with a little boy
>>720637606but i want the game to be harderi beat the game with reaper crest so i'm a better player than you
>>720637528You only get a damage bonus when the gauge is full
What should I use the key on? I'm in act 1.
>>720637719The pogo is only "excellent" for platforming, it's terrible in combat as it's so slow, and the range is barely better than Hunter. You're playing at a huge disadvantage.
Alright, I fucking FINALLY did the ant lady, posted in the wrong thread kek >>720637476 . I've now upgraded nail to max level, y'all reckon I should do the Crawfather first (I've heard noone mention this guy yet but the impression I got is that he's some sort of super-hard secret boss?) or the final boss, what's harder.
>>720637734i really really dont think you are correct here.
update: i still don't know what the fuck i'm going to do with her
>Good boss design?>Nah I'll just give them a million summons instead
>>720637606>play like a faggot yeah, no. I'll be keeping my reaper crest thank you very much!
>>720636701>Goes to mad doctor who enjoys operating on people>Gets her cute supple tummy stabbed with a thousand needles>Erotic screams throughout
>>720637756>Silk runeIt's a thing you get from a hidden boss in The Slab
>>720636701>Jump in grimy water>Hornet instantly has all of her orifices filled with maggots
>>720637756>What is Silk rune?Silk skill. Do more exploring in the slab.>can you post a webmNo, I already beat it. If there was a way to redo it I could but there isn't.
>>720637815only people who've left act 1 should post here.
>>720637060>>720637702exploring the area with these things made me really uncomfortable...
>>720637581What do you mean? She's in any area you haven't found the map yet, or you can summon her at Bellhart.Once you've done her quest, you can summon her in the Moor right outside Bellhart for her duel, until act 3 where she's always in Bellhart
>>720637815The worst part is they actually do have good bosses in here. Widow and the Cogwork Dancers are prime examples of what I hoped the bosses in this would have been like. Instead yeah, we get what we got. So it's more like filler in-between the actually good stuff.
>>720637778The fully upgraded version has multiple gauges with each boosting damage, all 3 lost on hit.
>>720637467I go to Greymoor and just right of the halfway home is three pilgrims that you can kill with a silk spear and one or two follow up attacks on the bulkier guy. Nets about 30 rosaries and takes basically no time at all to run back to the bench.
What was Ari Gibson thinking when drawing this scene?
>>720637807Anal sex?
>>720637204Yeah but it's not the bosses - I had to reattempt a lot of fights in acts 1 and 2 but it always felt that it was worth it to lock in and beat it. Here it feels like my reward is getting to see even more void shit. I beat everything in HK because I enjoyed it from start to finish so this is why I'm feeling kinda disappointed now with SS. Anyway Seth just jumped off screen and bugged the fight so this feels like a sign to stop lmao.>>720637298Funny thing, I remember poison cogflies being super strong in act 2 when I was just running around old areas and looking for secrets, but in act 3 they feel much weaker. Not sure if it was always the case or if it was the patch that nerfed them. I tried to burst down Karmelita with tools just for the kek of it (poison cogflies, tacks and wheels) but even that didn't work and I just ran out of tools. If I actually could cheese every fight with architect I would at this point but I haven't been using tools for the entire game so I'm really bad at it, I just focus on throwing out all my tools and not using the nail at all.>>720637462Oh, I already have his heart, that was actually one of the only fun areas and fights in act 3. Probably because it wasn't fucking monochrome and had actual colors. >>720637529Yeah I got spoiled for that here which is another reason why I'm not motivated to finish it. Haven't seen the cutscenes I guess.The final bossfight for me was Lace 2, GMS was uninspired as fuck.
>>720637815I would have waited another year if it meant they improved summoning-bosses
>>720637807Selfcest with the other model
>>720637606I used reaper from when I got it to the end of the game, I don’t think I could get used to a faster pogo now.
>>720637815>hey I made ths boss with 2 moves but I don't want to finish it>ok just throw bunch of mooks in there and call it a day>even better make the mook spawns RNG, that's good design.
So I've got this right;> UnnMade the Mosskin> SilkMade the Weavers (uplifted Pharlids)> Pale KingDidn't create any bugs, although provided heightened intelligence for the Halownest population> RadianceWorshipped by the Moth Tribe> Nightmare HeartWorshipped by the Grimm TroupeDo we know if the Radiance or the Nightmare Heart created those that worshipped them, it seems like at the very least the Moths existed independent of the Radiance before they started worshipping her. Also aside from the Vessels obviously, did White Lady actually make any beings on her own or have her own cult of worship?
>50 hours>100% completiongood ass game, definitely fun, and one of the better metroidvanias in a long while. think I like it more than dread.though I did find it annoying that a lot of shit in act 3 is "there's hidden shit in the ceiling that you need super jump for, but you wouldn't really know its there unless you look up a guide". also the flea mini games are a little ass imo
So do we know what a maskless/unveiled bug looks like?I want to see some big compound eyes.
>>720637908Yes but we're talking about hunter+ not ++
>>720637872The vast majority of add spam bosses are in act 2 and beyondThey even reuse old minibosses with new, stronger spawns
>>720637953>Didn't create any bugsHe made all the vessels with the Pale Lady, chief.
>>720637782You 3 got 3 options.1 is accessible much later and won't give you shit (Green Prince), an other gives you early access to the Wormways and later game areas (above Bone Bottom) and the last gives you early access to some tools (Deep Docks)..
>>720636156I got that in Act 2 when I came back and he was dead.
>>720637758huh? where? I think I missed this scene
>crest balance is total shit>description lies about actual damage you deal with attacks>charge attack is so shit it doesn't even generate silk>act 2 crests are hidden 7 years
There's gotta be a DLC about these guys coming.
Could the Forgebrothers be fought earlier, I only got to them in Act 3 cause I had to go to the Diving Bell, but jesus does the ads in that fight going void make it annoying as hell.
I DID ITCALL ME A SPEED GOD
>>720637972go slap the mask maker(s) with a heavy slash.Though not every bug wears a mask, despite their ravings.
So quickslash in the first game made you a shitter but wanderer is the symptom of a skilled gamer in silksong?
>>720637151>anon is too retarded to read
>>720638025Docks it is.
>>720637805GMS controls all silk. Even traces of silk in bug shells allows GMS to assume direct control. Lace is made entirely of silk. There is a leap there but I don't think it's a big one.>>720637920>GMS was uninspired as fuck.Yeah she felt like a less impressive Radiance and copied too much from The First Sinner
>>720638071You're 2 hours behind the world record.
>>720637193That fight is satisfying because it's designed for player aggression. You never have to be *that* careful about when you choose to attack. You only need to know what your escape options are based on the boss's tells. She even has a heal to encourage you to chase her down.
>>720638018Yeah sorry, I meant created bugs on his own, that's kind of implied later when I talk about the White Lady, I even made a note of excluding the vessels in her part of the post.
>>720638071World record is one hour and five minutes.
>>720637735This doesn't even make sense, Wanderer has the highest silk generation due to the fastest attack speed. Take some flea crack and you will literally never run out of silk.
>>720637920>but in act 3 they feel much weakeryea they peak in act 2 just because of how the tool and the nails upgrades are spread outyou can also skip karmelita if you do the green prince side quest which is quite easy
how hard is 100% under 30 hours, if anyone has done it?It was pretty trivial in HK1 for a replay if you managed to get the ending under 5, but it sounds way scarier in silksong>>720638090i dont listen to wandererkeks
>>720638048Nerf architect and buff Reaper; there, the crests are all comparable in strength and weakness.
>>720637972
>>720638064>dlc gated behind steel soul completionThat would be insanely bold.
>get Witch crest>moves are cool>healing sucks>drop it and go back to Reaper, finish Act 3 on it>decide to try out other crests>try Witch + Claw Mirror + Injector Band + Multibinder + Warding Bell>just roll every non-boss with tentacles + explosions and drain-tank your way to victoryThis is amazing, I can't believe I slept on this crest for so long. The longer I play the more I'm seeing that the difficulty is designed around abusing some absolutely busted fucking combos. I've yet to try out Architect + Plasmium but people are singing the praises of that one too, and of course you've also got basic tool combos like Poison Cogflies or Poison Tacks for early game that trivialize a lot of boss fights.What are some other crest/charm synergies you guys have discovered?
>>720636701I knew something was up right from the start by how lewd Hornet sounds when you jump during the weakened sections.
>>720637953The Moth Tribe member who gives you the dream nail pretty explicitly states the moths were created by Radiance, but it is also possible she's mistaken. False Gods installing a myth that becomes remembered as fact is a common thing in mythological stories.
>>720638121I think the fact that all of act 3 happens from Lace being a complete cunt is enough to disprove this, and characters outright stating that GMS is only holding on to life to let her daughter lace live. Everything she did was for Lace so I don't think it makes any sense for that just to be a stupid horcrux teleport.
Damn good game. Haven't liked a game enough to go for a "full" clear in a long timeHK 3 when
>>720638121>copied too much from spoilermost of her moveset is copied directly from radiance
>>720638090Quickslash didn't make a shitter any more than stacking soul gear did. Just one of the more viable builds.
>>720638048the nail arts on architect, shaman and witch are pretty nice
>>720637998don't reply any more
>>720638207That would be extremely GIT GUD of themAlso, Trobbio is so much fun to fight holy shit I missed my boy
>>720638193The biggest hurdle to 100% quickly is all of the shit you need to do to enter act 3 since once you're in the act you'll have all the movement abilities to fully clean up every area. It took me about 12 hours to get into act 3 and I'm fairly certain I cleaned up everything I could at the time. 18 hours to do the remaining bosses and exploration seems like plenty of time.
Maskless Hornet when?
>>720637953>Do we know if the Radiance or the Nightmare Heart created those that worshipped themRadiance seemed more like she organized the mindless bugs into worshiping her without actually understanding what they were doing.>>720638202Doesn't count she's wearing a drape like those mites.
>>720638264Quickslash and mark of pride was the quintessential shitter build. At least soul gear had the tradeoff of you not being able to heal as often
>>720638132>>720638151nobody cares about people who got their dick split open
I've been putting off the threefold song forever now because I want to do everything else first, but now I kind of just want to go ahead and do leave the few things I have to do left for later. Does completing the threefold song quest go straight to the endgame or is there a fair bit after?
>>720637841>>720638224plus the sounds when you bonk into a wall
>>720638064One of them would've been a boss: Steel Assassin Sharpe.In one of the old few blogposts about Silksong, he was mentioned alongside Khann and Carmelita, where Hornet would have to raid a group of assassins to get to him (notably, the assassins fight idea was itself cut from the original where Ghost and Hornet would've fought them off together).Also, the City of Steel is mentioned as one of the places where Grandma sent people to capture a part-Weaver.
>>720638202That's a hood
>>720637804That's because the Crawfather is a joke and like an A1 boss. If you've done Karmelita you should have no problems first trying it blind.>>720638193I got 100% even when I was taking my sweet time in the early game on SS. >>720637083I didn't see the 100% Steel Soul so I thought I would just be playing until GMS and was goofing around and had to readjust around Citadel.
>>720638227To be fair I'd be more willing to believe the Radiance could create a whole ass species through divine will than Silk could. I guess if it were another case of uplifting the question would be, do we ever see the primordial moth creature in-game?
>>720638121>>720638252shes literally just a less interesting budget radiance. gameplay wise, plot wise...It actually baffles me how weak pharlooms' whole plot and world is compared to HK1, the only disappointing department in an otherwise great sequel
>>720637856>>720637871>secret slab boss>need key Why did Team Cherry hide default ending (no exploration for act 3 needed) behind bullsht boss?Why can't I just summon Shakra without doing her quest (act 3 exploration in cancer areas) do get my default ending and uninstall the game?
>>720638359the endgame is almost twice as big again you may as well go for it.
>>720638252I think the parallels in their attacks were very much intentional, considering how both have a fairly similar story when you think about it.
>>720637841me on the left
>>720638359When you learn all 3 melodies and play them you are thrust into the penultimate boss. There is time to go back afterwards.
>>720638359There's a bit more than a bit
>>720638239All of that fits the same way with GMS trying to keep herself alive though and Pale King already demonstrated the ability of a Pale Being to transfer itself into a new body.
Yuriniggers should die.Hornet x Lace only works if one of them has a dick.
>>720638215I like using Beast Crest along with flea brew and flintslate to melt bosses.
>>720636701what is that tongue doing to her in this silhouette? why is it animated like this?
>>720638394While I wouldn't say Silksong's OST is disappointing, I think it's worse than the originals, especially in the boss themes department.
>>720638041You can bath at the citadel spa with Sherma, before he goes to songclave
>>720637540Nah its Hornet who uses the godly energy of GMS to become a god weaver queen herself. That ending we see hornets naked body grow more limbs and eyes. She wins but is changed
>>720638193>how hard is 100% under 30 hoursI don't think it'd be too hard to achieve, it's just a matter of routing everything
>>720638396you dont need the secret slab boss for the default endingno idea of what youre talking aboutalso>i want to play less of the game because i just do??
>>720636701>Game has vorePlease I can't handle anymore
>>720638483>im a faggot and i want everything to conform to my dick fetish
>>720638297
>>720638396it's a very very optional area
>>720638171Yeah maybe I will skip her even though I was thinking about skipping the coral tower because I'm really tired of all the gauntlet arenas. Seriously there's so many of them throughout the game that I have gauntlet fatigue. Also it feels wrong to skip her fight because the soundtrack is really good and the fight itself is fun, minus the stupid gauntlet yet again.
>>720638409But I’m already almost 50 hours in Act 2.
>>720638563>dick in pussy>faggotry
>>720638483>Yuriniggers should dieI agree>Hornet x Lace only works if one of them has a dick.The only thing worse than yuriniggers are futafaggots
>>720638202Who was responsible for the pins? GMS or some other bugs?
Imma ignore that
>>720635929I freed the green prince, what does he do?
>>720637060why is this the hottest thing ever?
>>720638396>secret slab bossYou're wrong on the location. I've attached a spoilered cropped version of the relevant map portion.
>>720638359You can complete the quest, use the elevator, defeat the first boss and still go back to the citadel and explore the rest of the game (you will also unlock a new shortcut).
>>720638353I guess, man. Those two seemed equally broken to me when clearing pantheons.
>>720638394I found the pilgrimage to the once-great but now rotting citadel thing to be more gripping than any plot element in HK1
>>720638409>>720638465damn this game just keeps going, I'm like 40+ hours in and just assumed they were equivalent to the dreamers from Hollow Knight so I held off on them
>>720638586I would agree if it was dickgirl on trap or dickgirl.Dick in pussy ain't gay.
>>720638394>It actually baffles me how weak pharlooms' whole plot and world is compared to HK1Yeah Im definitely feeling that myself. Pharloom doesn't feel like it was ever an actual world. Hallownest atleast felt like a centralized city with weird little outer districts, Pharloom is explicilty a number of way stations to the grand cathedral which is just too automated to actually seem like a place anyone ever lived in, even with the transit system. I don't know maybe I'm just a bit too sour by some design decisions but while each level is pretty it feels much less of a cohesive whole
>>720638193The problem with sub-30 100% is the logistics aka the route.Otherwise it's the same as sub-5h Grandma Silk.
>>720638415Doesn't matter how intentional they were. A new boss needed more new stuff. Cool parallels doesn't make it any less reused.
>>720637060RIP misty or whatever her name was
>>720638481THe pale king had to give up the wyrm body, we see lace and GSM move and be active at the same time so now GSM is not literally living on through Lace
>>720638071>people playing it down as no big deal by comparing to WRlel. I'll say you did great anon. Top speedrunners are not that impressive either since they still have not gone below 1 hour.
>>720638736>we see lace and GSM move and be active at the same timeWe also see all of GMS slaves active too
>>720638572she's the hardest fight in the game, at least was for me,don't skip the coral tower, just let cogflies carry you, the boss is free and you get a checkpoint right before it, you can use only 1 cogfly per arena room too, the mobs all have really low HP
>>720638585>>720638680its ok anon you can stop coping, others will call you a faggot whether you acknowledge that your gay or not
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lgmaCwBd_EThis area was too short and too easy, it doesn't do the music justice.
>>720638546>you dont need the secret slab boss for the default endingHigh Halls gauntlet is too hard.I need powerful tools to beat it but all powerful tools are hidden in horrible areas (you need to beat the to get access to act 3).Why? I don't want to play act 3. It's pretty clear for me the areas outside of Melody quest were added later in development. To already finished game.
>>720638689>Pharloon is explicitly a number of way stations to the grand cathedralThat's by design, it's supposed to be a pilgrimage.
>>720638528The only track I ever really kept coming back to was City of Tears (And Soul Sanctum because it's just an organ remix) But I dont know, very little in Silksong is making me want to come back to it as far as OST goes. Except maybe the dancers.I'm still only at the end of act 2 so who the fuck knows, maybe I'll get myself a good surprise by the end.
>>720636248You have to go to the top of the area to the right of it, then you'll be able to come back into the prisoner area from the top, which will allow you to lower on of the cages and grant you access to the area with the bench
>>720638071Nice. My own run was just over 4 hours so you did way better than me. I made the mistake of following a cloakless run and had to do the spike path in High Halls before the gauntlet without the float.
I'm watching joseph anderson and atrioc, joe is comically good and atrioc is comically bad at the game
>>720638572>I was thinking about skipping the coral tower because I'm really tired of all the gauntlet arenasIf it makes it better there's a shortcut rock you can drop after the last of the gauntlets so you don't need to do them again before the boss
>>720638790>commenti fucking hate normalfagsle path of pain nigger you probably didn't even beat hollow knight
>>720638876atrioc's playthrough has been painful to watch and it looks like he skipped a lot of shit in act 1
>>720638780Thanks anon, I'll try it again. At least the coral tower is also a change in scenery and a new area. It's a shame it's just a corridor of gauntlet fights though, I really would've liked to explore something new in act 3.
>>720637804crawfather is pretty ez
>>720638876i dont know who those are but thats cool
this FUCKING RETARDED gauntlet in high halls is so fucking STUPIDGRAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!
>>720638193It's easy, you don't need to worry about routing. Assuming you don't get stuck on bosses your 2nd playthough is fast as fuck because you're not wasting time exploring blindly, and you know not to bang your head against shit too early like savage beastfly or bilewater.
>>720638806>I need powerful tools to beat itmany tools are great, which ones do you have?even just things like spike traps, basic throwables, poison are super powerfuli really didnt mind that fight at all and i only had the needle remaining when it caught me by surpriseshow your inventoryalternatively just.. kill them with silk skills and good use of the needle
>>720638993shoot them
>>720638806>It's pretty clear for me the areas outside of Melody quest were added later in development. To already finished game.Yes and no. Coral Tower used to be a proper area, it was in the original trailer for Silksong.Khann and Karmelita were talked about as if they were more relevant characters than they ended up being.What I think actually ended up happening were massive story rewrites and map changes.
>>720638790The lost glory aesthetic of the Citadel is not that unique at this point, but it does it really well. The soundtrack having a distant but still positive feel is what pulls it together
>>720638993When I reached this point I just spammed silk throw and it worked out pretty well
>>720638876Joe is mechanically very skilled in almost any game he plays and I'm honestly jealous. At the same time, he's a complete retard when it comes to paying attention and understanding story elements (see: Silent Hill 2 and the town was making James stupid).
>>720638806i would argue that you have unlocked most of the broken tools in act 1
>>720638993tacks literally destroy these idiots
So I just got done with the Abyss escape sequence, is that the hardest platforming segment in the game or is there more to come?
>using architect crest for dream fight>go in with full beast shards, refill tools at least once during the fight>die>go back in with full shards because your shards reset if you die in the dream>try to refill tools>game eats my entire shard count without giving me anythingHas anyone else experienced this bug? Saving and quitting fixes it, but it's annoying that a crest stops working after your first attempt.
>eceleb discussionmaximum pukethat kind of nonsense belongs on /vg/
>>720639131There is a mini path of pain but it's optional. Really cool lore if you finish it though.
Just got to Act 3. Isn't The Knight supposed to be top dog of The Void now? What the hell is he doing, how'd he lose control over it, a kingdom is getting ruined AGAIN.
>>720639198:)
>>720639198i think hes just there. hes powerful and all but hes chilling and not trying to fuck with the natural order of things
>>720639198What made you think he lost control?
>>720639131Was that supposed to be hard? It was all in the presentation, was really cool but nothing able to kill you, just some simple platforming.
>>720639198Not his problem. Kingdom violated the NAP so it needs to deal with the consequences.
>>720639196where?
without spoiling is this a sequel or prequel
>>720639323Sequel
>>720639131Yes, that's the most difficult platforming. There's an optional thing later but I have no idea why people keep comparing it to PoP, it's just clawshots and double jumps in a low stakes environment that gives you free silk, not too bad.
>>720639323Prequel in an alternate universe
>>720638993>didn't finish Shakra's quest>didn't look for GarmondIf you were a better friend they would've helped out.
>>720638806>verdania I had no idea this existed Silksong has consistently shocked me with its scale more than Elden Ring
>>720639198He's lacebophobic
>>720638993Use tacks and that "double tool spam" item.Or just parry them to death (and use wanderer and druid eyes to get more silk).
>>720639198To answer your question if you play for a few minutes you learn that it's heavily implied how it's still GMS ultimately responsible for it, just influenced by the void for obvious reasons.
>>720639287top
S H E R M A
>>720639382Theres no way you went into ER expecting a 100+ hour game and didnt come into SS expecting it to be atleast 50 hours
i'm having fun but I still think that hollow knight is a better game at the end of the day
>>720639196Is that the one for Mister Mushroom 7 up in The Cradle?>>720639259My main issue was finding where it wanted me to go, there's just a lot of visual noise once I got to the flying enemies.
>>720638993I was stuck on this so I fucked off for awhile then came back after finishing Shakras quest, she'll help you and makes it way easier. I beat it on the first attempt she helped with
>>720639438idk man I beat HK in like 20 hours, and I expected the same from SS, but I doubled the amount of time in SS for 100%.
>>720639453nah Silksong is much better
>>720639198It's still Grandma doing it, she's redirecting the Void up through the strands.She's trying to keep herself and Lace alive.
>>720639421am i the only one who hate sherma??i feel like she is the embodiment of toxic positivity and naivety
so wtf is the point of memoria? Is it just meant to be a chill meme zone?
>>720639421RUN LITTLE BUG BOYSHE'S NOT LOOKING TO PRAY
>>720639414of what?
>>720639453I think so too but a lot of my favourite things in hollow knight were in the DLC so maybe silksong still has a chancedoubt anything can make up for silksongs notably worse story though
ok, i think i have all the tools i can for this act. all thats left to do is farm up a shitload of money before the void brexits the economy and complete everything i can in the pokedex, then time to do the endings and go to act 3
>>720639253There are tendrils and shit possessing niggas with void
>>720639453it has a better music and story/final bosses but silksong mogs it in every other department
>>720639438I expected it'd be about the size of Hollow Knight
>>720637878I mean if you're gonna put half life reference in a game about bugs, might as well use this.
>>720638543>She wins but is changedJust like she won from the witch's curse?There are two ways Hornet can change her nature, by binding things and making them her own, or having something bound into her very nature.GMS changes Hornet's nature, just like the curse did. And this is because she is no longer herself.Anyway this side-steps the entire issue, which is: how can anyone be satisfied with this?
best boss and music
>>720639369>>720639472huh, i guess there's more places i can explore then before this. i thought stuff like mount fay would only be properly accessible later
>>720639529It astounds me just how much of a retard Silk is, the kingdom would've been better off with Groal in charge.
>>720639421How long until we get porn of Hornet molesting Sherma?
>>720639531>she
>>720639249If they don't make a super knight boss, then they are pussies, he would dab on Hornet so hard. the problem I don't see how they can't make that especially with how shit void lace is
>>720639532it's foreshadowingalso just a cool mini worldbuilding area; the citadel denizens attempted to recreate the world outside in a controlled manner
>>720639591I agree in both departments
>>720638876>atrioc refuses to unequip barbed braceletit's going to be a long one
>>720639531Whiteward really endeared him to me.
>>720639568hollow knight has a much better world, it's way more interconnected and I'm sick of all the gay manmade zones in silk song. All of act 2 is boring because every zone is a variation of "lol here's a hallway"
>>720639438>atleast 50 hours50 hours and I'm still in Act 2 doing main quest
who do I give this to
>>720639453That's just nostalgia talking. Apart from the plot this game is better in all aspects
People talk about "Acts"I just got packed up by some motherfucker after getting wall hang, bloodborne bagman style, what act am I in? Will I know when I switch between?
>>720639664What foreshadowing? I don't remember any.
>>720639664Foreshadowing for what?
>>720639664it gave me metroid fusion vibes.
>>720639720It's act 3 stuff.
And there he is, the motherfucker.I'm not going to jail on steel soul mode, fuck you.
>>720639531It's a little boy, and I if anything happens to him, I'll commit genocide in Pharloom.
>>720639763okay thanks
>>720639740Something will pop up on the screen that tells you when the Acts change. You're Act 1 still.
>>720639706zamn, at least you get to enjoy it longerim pretty sure most people had their 100% save by 50 hours
>>720635929Is Shakra a girl or a guy?My head canon was bishounen.
>>720639738>nostalgia talkingI literally just played it nigger
>>720639743>>720639748Verdania
>>720639740It literally says it when you enter a new Act, you're probably in Act 1
>>720639591No trick arena, no RNG, no particle effects obscuring your vision. Just you, her, and the dance. It's all a man needs
>hey the tools are actually fun unlike magi->mfw noticing how many shells they use versus the amount of shells you gainwhy would they do this
>>720639720Just keep playing, it becomes relevant way later for act 3
>>720639198I've played both games to completion and have no absolutely no clue what the actual lore is, every lore bit you find is just vague shit and a lot of "..."s I just take it as window dressing and that's it, I'm sure there's some underlying story somewhere but it's all gibberish to me, at one point there were bees in the memory dream thing section and I'm just like, yea sure man, maybe it's one of those superhero origin story where she got the name Hornet or something, I guess that makes sense
>>720639840Just buy bundle shards, pretty much the only thing to dump rosaries into once you've unlocked all the benches/travel shit
>>720639826What was the Verdania part, I thought that place was just Moss Grotto, The Marrow & Sands of Karak?
>>720639453Hollow Knight undoubtedly has better pacing, customization, combat mechanics and overall themeSilksong has better platforming mechanics and uhhh that's it.
>>720637913slut
>>720639827Does acts even matter? Or can I still go back and do shit i missed in act 1 after getting to act 2?
>>720639827>>720639802Right on, thank you. I kept feeling like I was close to finishing, glad to know it isn't the case.
>>720639627The fuck? How did I never know about this
How do I get to the area right under the platform at the start of Underworks? I thought for sure I'd be able to get there through Wisp Thicket, but apparently not.
>>720639938it's just to appeal to the redditors
>>720639921not just a slut, a fake slut
>>720639897>can't even stack more than 20 of themAbsolute dog shit
>>720637815Silksong mogs Hollow Knight so unbelievably hard in terms of boss design it's unreal
>exploring whiteward for the first time
>>720639567The tendrils are just void-laced silk, not pure void stuff. They even react to your needolin.
>>720639912I really want to see what happens when you put the Knigjt against Hornet's bosses and vice versa
AWOO!
>>720639905The electric guard enemies that you get the voltvessels from. There's a text in the area that mentions they weren't able to preserve it as they were the other areas.
>>720637059Boulder is kind of bullshit but it does have a sound
>>720639892Some of these parts are more understandable if you know the lore of the og game. Like the bee part is very simple, it's just where Hornet trained.
>>720638193>trying this hard to tribefag
>>720639921This is actually GMS trying to seduce Hornet.
>>720639954What areas have you found so far?
FUUUCK I HAVE 1% LEFT UNTIL 100 WHAT THE FUCK IS LEFT TO DO?DO I HAVE TO FILL OUT THE HUNTER'S JOURNAL??? WHAT ELSE!!!!I HAVE ALL MASK SHARDS ALL SPOOLS
>wanderers crest can crit>magnetic dice make crit chance higherIf only it didn't have mostly yellows
38 secs26 secs58 secs24 secs
goddamn team cherry like half the characters in the game die in act 3 NOOOOOOOOOO
>>720640046Did you get everything from Eva?
>>720640046Must be the Hunter's Journal then, yeah. That or mementos / tools
>>720639641>Sherma is maleI AM GOING TO DRAW THIS. I FUCKING LOVE /ss/.
>>720640046Did you already do mushroom's quest and get his ending?
>>720640015Isn't Volt stuff Sands of Karak (I haven't been to Verdania so I got no idea what it's meant to be other than Palestag and Green Prince), like Voltnest is in Sands of Karak and that's where those electrified hazards come from no?
>>720640042>has an enormous ass>gives lace an enormous assshe knew what she was doing
>>720638370>SharpeFuck I remember the announcements. Wonder if he'll be a part of the upcoming stuff.
>>720639809She's clearly inspired by those tall african tribes. It should have been obvious by her singing. But yes, she's a girl. Just like every other important character in the game. Didn't you notice most of the characters are girls in this game? It's kind of a theme.
>>720640046Hunter's Journal does not count for completion.
>>720640046>DO I HAVE TO FILL OUT THE HUNTER'S JOURNAL???apparently that's confirmed as not counting towards 100%
>>720639892Hornet tells you the game's entire plot (and even the purpose of some sidequests, like the putrified ducts one) every time she opens her mouth.
>>720639532I took it as grandmother silk wanting to completely shut off the citadel from the other places and that's a farm of sorts to grow food and such
I'm at the top of cogwork core.The melody puzzle has some mind of indicator or is it just trial and error until you get each tower right?
>>720639912I like HK more but combat is still infinitely better in SS. Just that combat is balanced like shit so you never get to make use of your insane movement toolkit until you become so good at the game that you don't feel like trying to style even a little bit will lead you to you taking a billion contact damage. Basically, a level of confidence that 90% of players will not reach.
>>720640221Its shit and not an actual puzzle, im sure you can figure it out
>>720639531What's with zoomers and hating sincerity?
>>720640127Remember to share it here once you are done.
>>720640221yea its just hit them from top to bottom to match the lines up
>>720640043I just beat the widow, so I've got bellhart, wormwood (or worm something, the earthy cave-y area), the flowery place, s-something where I got wall hang, greymoor, and then everything underneath those.
>>720640267Thanks anon for not saying anything at all.
>>720640221Just try different combinations of the bottom two panels until they match. Then just work up.
>>720635929I just started fighting Shakra. And I honestly can't tell when it's safe to hit her. Do you guys remember when bosses used to start off slow, so you can learn the attacks, and then speed up as your progress?
>>720640314Are you kidding me, I thought you had to learn some melody or focus on the lamps trajectory.>>720640332I don't know why I was expecting a puzzle at all. It turns out it's just a time waster.
>>720638252they reversed the last 2 bosses for silksong,HK had swordsmen duel followed by fighting godSS had the reverse.I thought it was kino
>>720639720It's one of the items needed for accessing Act 3
>>720640221It is not trials and error, and it's not very hard so don't overthink it.
>>720640221The patterns of music notes need to line up, the problem is that because all four segments of each tower can be shifted around there's not really anything that indicates which panels are on the correct side. I think they should've probably made at least one of the towers have a segment locked in to at least act as a tutorial. Also they should've had the towers scattered throughout Cogworks instead of all right at the end cause it's really boring otherwise.
>>720640221yep, just trial and error, it's weird to be like that but it is what it is, I don't really get the point of it
>>720638319TROBIOOOOOOOOOO
>shard bundles>neast shards>rosariesSurely game devs know how unsatisfying it is to find (Soul of a nameless soldier) in a secret room or after beating some mobs right? Like if theyre not going to put anything meaningful there they can just not put that nook in the game
>>720640317Ok so yeah you're still in Act 1, I'm not sure if "Wormwood" is Wormways or Shellwood, or both? But you've still got a bit to go before getting to Act 2.
>>720640254>but combat is still infinitely better in SSNo, it's fucking not, anon>clawline absolutely DOMINATEs combat over real spacing or basic melee, once you realize how broken it is you can just punish anything and instazip around>1 charged attack down from 3, most of them are shit and they don't charge your soul>healing changes wrecked the entire soul system in general>encounter design is shit, too many bosses rely on add spam instead of interesting movesets, interesting bosses are far too easy>tools absolutely rape the game but are connected to the most unfun grindan system in existence
>Dash through screen transition>SpikesGETTING REAL FUCKING SICK OF IT
>>720640007Knight would rape all bosses in this game. I'd argue his toolkit is better suited for add spam compared to Hornet's.
>>720640267I had to backtrack because I thought it was an actual puzzle because the game gave like no indication for what you were supposed to do. I assumed you had to learn something from those music cylinders you were giving the archivist, but nope, just smack it until things line up. Totally brainless.
>>720640454>>720638319If my peanus weanus were a boss in this game, he'd be called THROBBIO
Clawline vs First Sinner is so incredibly fun to do it's unreal, the battle has such a perfect flow and First Sinner is aggressive enough (once she actually gets going with chaining attacks) that it feels like a proper duel.
>>720638993The one in the dreg pit is worse

>>720640603>totally brainless>got stuck on itHot damn, you must be really retarded then.
my cats laying on my belly while i play silksong and i just thought i would let you know as it is incredibly comfy
>>720640147Depends.If Team Cherry have the balls, City of Steel could just end up as Hollow Knight 3.Would be appropriate, the Masters feel Void related in some way, based on Jinn and Jiji from the first game.
I'm having fun, but I'm not horny for some reason. I just want to fart.I'll think of something lewd later.
>>720640349Pogo on top of her after the dash and after the slam. When she's spamming rings get under her. That's really all you have to know. It is pretty interesting how a boss with literally 3 moves can filter people just be being a little faster than normal. Pattern recognition is a rare skill these days
>>720640695If you get the conjoined heart you can skip one of the others. Whichever you don't grab becomes the momento
>>720638806This image isn't scaled right. Pharloom is easily 2-3x the size of Hallownest to compensate for Hornet's speed.
>>720640691>>720640774Buck broken.
uh oh, tendy melty
Very rude. Please don't attract mods while I'm posting naked Hornets.

two week grace period stupid pajeet
Why the fuck do people complain about gank fights?i would get it if this is a souls game since your characters are slow as shit but hornet is fast and has many tools
Any advice for Nyleth? I really don't want to spend too much time figuring out a gimmick boss.
mm i like /v/ more sorry schizo homo
>>720637060Still can't believe this was made for me lmao

wow this is so much fun
>>720640901Architect Crest alpha strike.I didn't use tools as a rule but fuck that bitch for the reason you mention.
>>720640107YES>>720640118I HAVE ALL BLUES AND YELLOWS AND SILK SKILLS>>720640132ONLY THE QUEST I HAVEN'T FOUGHT THE BOSS
>>720640841>>720640427>>720640423>>720640405Yeah that seems it, thanks anons (even those not pinged here)
>>720640046I was stuck on this earlier. For me it was memory lockets and Eva stuff.
>>720640890It's just excessive in Silksong imo, feels like there's more gank fights than bosses, and half the bosses have gank fights preceding them
>>720640691>>720640774>NOOOOOOOOOO YOU CANNOT TALK ABOUT VIDEOGAMES WE NEED MORE GACHASHIT AND KEK PORN THREADSsubhuman tendietranny behavior>>720640875the fact that tendies consoom and abandon their slop in two weeks max doesn't mean the same standards should be used for the rest of the board (people that actually enjoy playing videogames)
>>720637596>>720637531Ah that sucks
>>720640901That's the flower boss right?I think equipping a projectile tool that you can safely chuck while clinging to a wall, and the tool that makes you stick in place while wall hugging helps. I didn't use the latter myself, though.
>>720635929Who's the best sexual (female) partner for Hornet?Remember she is lesbian (only into girls. Boys don't bother)
>>720641013Now do it in Act 3 where most of the enemies void out and the foreground shit obscures them
>>720636107I tried using it with poison but it still takes way too long to set up
>>720640538clawline is good but silk neutral, though. you're actively not getting any silk by spamming it which means you're not getting any silk to use for healing or silk skills, it's not worth it to always spam itthe silk system is also, high risk high reward -- landing a heal mid combat is a lot more viable than it is in hollow knight but conversely, it costs a lot more (and is more punishing to get hit mid-heal) -- the same idea applies to silk skills, cross stitch and thread storm are broken as fuck but they cost your precious healing resource, it rewards you for playing well, meanwhile I never really felt incentivized to use soul in hollow knight outside of the occasional shriek/darkest dive.the most difficult and fun endgame bosses are also the ones that don't rely on any add spam so I don't know what you're talking about here. charged attacks are dogshit though, and shards are pretty unnecessary as a system. agree with those
>>720641016Poison cogflies are a given. What else? Sting shards?

>Find an elevator in the Grand Bellway station>It goes up to another (dead end) areawtf how big is this map?
bro is really seething because he got filtered by silksong and now has a vendetta against hollow knight games
>>720640901Cogflies.I don't respect wall only bosses.
>>720641178The citadel is fuckhuge m8.
I feel bad, I beat the boss in bilewater last night by cheesing it by sitting in the water in the corner hanging on the wall and jumping off to smack him in the face when he breathed in and throwing tools at him. Also, that runback. Holy fucking shit it is the absolute worst part, almost worse than the boss. I'm not happy about it, but I spent over 3 hours trying to fight him the "right way" to no avail, I would always make a mistake and end up in the water anyways and not have the ability to heal up and would get hit for 2 masks multiple times and die, over and over and over again. I'm not sorry for cheesing, Cherry made it the most insufferable boss in the game (so far).Now I'm on the boss at in the prison, whatever it's called the one that was locked away and it's filtering me hard too. I'm almost 40 years old and don't have the reflexes I had when I was younger and this motherfucker (first sinner) moves around like a spastic autistic sperg and I can barely catch up to the bitch just to get one hit in before he's teleporting around the map like crazy fucking me up. Feels like every boss is a roadblock to me. I keep on persevering and eventually getting moved on, but exploring each area is so much more fun than this.
>>720640901I just beat her. Good ol' Hunter's crest got the job done for me.
>>720639984>>720639840>they copied Bloodborne awful mechanics>In post Sekiro-Elden Rang timeline7 yearsyears
>>720641035>tendiesFuck off. Hollow knight wasn't big until it's Switch release, and tendies were begging for it every nintendo direct. Quit try to cause a rift where there isn't one. Remember, the PS store was the only one that DIDN'T struggle on launch.
>>720641164reading comprehension nigger, who do you think I'm calling a jeet
>beat Phantom first try>get to Grand Bellway>take tube to Songclave>crash right after the first screen transitionI'm playing on Switch2 using the high framerate mode but a game like this full on crashing, on a console no less, is not something I expected. Thankfully it was about 10 seconds after I had just saved so I didn't have to redo the whole fight again. Because while it was easy, it did seem to drag on longer than it needed to.
>>720641116I just used whatever I had on me but the regular daggers and the rings you get from map slut are probably a good choice. They come out fast and you get a lot of them.If you have the item from Bilewater that lets you throw two tools at once they'll probably blast her down pretty quick. I haven't tried it but anon told me it's broken as fuck.
>>720641026>HAVEN'T FOUGHT THE BOSSThat's what you're missing
>>720641250Replied to the wrong post sorry bro
>>720641013i feel like most flying shit is unfair, once you got grapling claw its a bit better thotry using that shuriken knife, the one that floating and explode in the air. i forgot the name
>>720641124>>720641161>>720641208>>720641213>>720641262Oh yeah I just beat her third try. Just had a single poison cogfly up all the time and just pogod her to death. Bed of Chaos tier bossfight. At least it didn't take long.
Savage Beastfly is NOT comfy.>>720638859That bench is broken anyway
>>720636107I tried using it with poison but it still takes way too long to set up>>720636721The boomerang does great damage if you throw it at tge right distance and it hits like 5 times
>>720641310I forgive you bro
>>720641368>That bench is broken anywayFigure it out.
>>720641013you can hit the bomb back
>>720641368Fix it.
>>720641368>That bench is broken anywaythen fix it.....
>>720641346Funnily enough I think it's one of the more fun boss fights in the game, just because it does something different. I liked the clockwork dancers and the green prince's take on it, too.
>>720636157movies take years to make too and the experience is over in about two hours
>>720641112>clawline is good but silk neutral, thoughNah. In 90% of cases you can fit in an extra attack after clawline, getting into positive silk. It's objectively the strongest tool, absolutely fucking broken.>landing a heal mid combat is a lot more viable than it is in hollow knight but conversely, it costs a lot more And that's a terrible fucking tradeoff. In HK you always could choose between healing a single mask or casting a single spell. Having options is better than the lack of thereof.>the most difficult and fun endgame bosses are also the ones that don't rely on any add spam so I don't know what you're talking about here. There's not a single hard boss in this game who doesn't use adds. And they are only hard because of adds.
>>720641426It's a new game and people are still discussing their first playthroughs you dumb retard.
why do these guys say 'guano'(like poopie)?
>>720641502but bro, a political thread died for this!
>>720636107The reload is also STILL bugged when using KBM
>>720640789Good to know, but now I don't get the "importance" of that garden lore-wise (compared to the other three hearts).
WAIT IM MISSING ONE TOOL POUCH CAPACITY UPGRADEFUCK
>>720641214In the actual bloodborne it wasn't even that bad. If silksong had blood bullets it would fix a lot of the dogshit mechanics. But as a whole the shards are entirely unnecessary.
>>720641453I guess it's variety and maybe on repeat playthroughs I will respect it more. Same with Father of the Flame. I did like Prince, if I have to do a rematch then it might as well change something up like that.
>>720639818I literally just played HK fully before this game came out and I still don't get you.
>>720635929Which tool do I get from the spooder? I only have 1 craftmetal and I don't know if I can get another anytime soon.
>>720641524They're saying you're a shitter
>>720639591I'd agree if she didn't block half of your attacks, fuck that. Completely ruined a fun boss fight for me.
is there some sort of crit mechanic? im farming money using wanderer crest for the first time and i seem to be occasionally landing higher damage hits that player bigger animations and have a metallic sound cue. picrel is my loadout
>>720640152>She's clearly inspired by those tall african tribes.Or amazons.Or paper wasps.
>>720641420I don't know how I'm not a fix bug I'm a hit stuff with a pointy nail bug
WHAT THE FUCK?
>>720641591If you don't have cogflies yet, save the craftmetal
I humbly offer my shitty meme for the next thread
>>720641618and even when she isn't actively parrying your attack, it might instead be you accidentally parrying one of her attackslike just let me hit the boss, c'mon
Why does this game want me to goon to bugs so much? Don't act like this is a me problem, Ari clearly intended this when he drew this shit
>>720641570Shards are there to stop people from overrelying on tools. Considering I finished the game full of shards while other anon's didn't, shows that they are properly filtering the shitters who need projectile spam to win
>malding THIS HARDDespite its possible flaws Silksong is still kino
>>720641672Wanderer lets you crit when you're at full silk
>>720640152>It's kind of a theme.More fan art obviously.>no traps thoughThis was a mistake.
>>720641707got 'em
>>720641707kek
>>720641672wanderer can crit, yes
>>720641734>Shards are there to stop people from overrelying on toolsAmazing, i love it when the game makes sure you don't want to use its game mechanicsBig brained faggot
>>720641707>doesn't immediately dash on a reflex every time you hear a click
>>720641729They probably realized you cant sell a game in 2k2X without some sex appeal
>>720638696True. I'm holding out hope that there's another super secret boss that good, but that'll be dlc if at all. Just a bland final boss in general.
>>720641707Lmao fell for it.
>>720641746ah, cool.does the game tell you all the different crests effects anywhere?
>wanderer need to save silk for better crit chancethis is dumb
>>720641591Avoid this at all coasts.Do not listel anyone trying to shill it.It does nothing. There is still no visual proofs of this shit being better than default run or wall grab.
Reminder that BBC dude is literally a Jew from Germany and probably just butthurt this criticised his precious shekels.
>>720641821Balancing an OP move by making it cone with a cost is an extremly normal mechanic. If you could just spam complies and do nothing for the whole game that would make it too easy
where the FUCK are the silk hearts? You get one and then the game just forgets that the mechanic even exists
>>720641918>Balancing an OP move by making it cone with a cost is an extremly normal mechanicNo, it shows they are absolute dog shit at balancing because you can bruteforce this system by farming. Absolute, ridiculous downgrade to the soul + charm system of the first game
>>720641918*spam cogflies
>>720641923The other two are found in the Citadel.
>>720641721>I was writing down stuff like these and the other notices numerating orders in various zones thinking it might be a clue>It was just worldbuilding stuffAt the seventh bell toll. send:thirty measures, four beats smokerock,eight beats sweetsmelt,mark of fealty, all workers.
>>720641923oh yeah i forgot too lmao30 hours in and only have the first one
Any advice for coral tower? I really hate gauntlet arenas and just want to get them over with. I know after the third one I get a shortcut so that's my main challenge.
>>720641721what did casting mean?
>>720641923They're basically boss rewardsI got my third silk heart when I was at 99% completion, and that pushed me to 100%
>>720641985are they like act 3 items? I have double jump, and I still haven't found shit. I feel like I have explored the majority of the map too, it's bonkers
>>720641734I thought about this at first. Except tools already have usage limit per bench.It's worthless mechanic.
>>720641963This game essentially has souls and charms still, are you dumb? If you have to farm shards to beat this game that is unironically a you problem
reminder that lace canonically suckles the silk from hornet's spinnerets
>>720641990i took screenshots of those too, just in case they came back up for a puzzle>>720642021trap inside a mold no? like to cast something out of metal you put the metal inside a mold
>>720641495silksong has a larger focus on momentum, bosses can delete you within seconds however you playing well can also heal up the damage within seconds, and silk skills are far more spammable which means you can delete the bosses in seconds with back to back cross stitches and thread storms with clawline you're still at a silk deficit when directly compared to just having good spacing and landing two regular attacks vs clawlining and getting regular one attack off afterwards, the former gives you more silk to work with. clawline is moreso a crutch than anything when you don't initially know the enemy attack patterns and movement>no hard bosseslace 3, carmelita and seth aren't hard bosses? I struggled way more on them than any average meatbag that spammed adds
>>720641858If you think that's bad wait until you awaken hunter crest. You need to hit enemies like 10 times for a damage boost and if you get hit once or sit on a bench it goes away and you need to do it again. Get used to being aggressive and getting lots of hits in quickly or you'll hate act 3
>>720641923the other two are in the citadel >one for beating Lace a second time>one for beating random ass boss hidden in
>>720642035You can get one silk heart from whiteward. You need to find the key therein to unlock that one mechanism.
>>720642079she's the round bulbous spider ass she was always missing
>>720642070>This game essentially has souls and charms still, are you dumbIt has a pale shadow of both, watered down and disconnected from each other, overnerfed and with tools introducing an entirely new layer of ass pain that has no reason to exist
Do i get a message of when to return to Eva for her to awaken a crest?I went back after beating a boss that gave me a silk skill thinking that would count as "expanding my nature" and she told me to fuck off
>>720642105>>720642104alright, I suppose that I will keep my eyes out
>>720642083huh so there are weaver inside where you get skill?damn thats brutal
>>720642035No, you can find them in Act 2. You will eventually get one as you progress in the main quest (you will get it right before the last main-quest boss of Act 2), and the other one is an optional boss in the Citadel.
>>720641923I actually forget where the first one is, feels like an eternity ago.Second is the Whiteward boss.Third one is the boss fought after getting 3 songs and taking the elevator.
>>720642070>This game essentially has souls and charms still, are you dumb?Yeah retard. How about removing all tools and turn them into charms and crest people can actually use? 7 years.
>>720642059It still prevents you from just spamming them in every encounter which I think is a good thing. Even if they lowered the bench limit, then you WOULDN'T be able to spam them for those few situations where you want to. If you EVER ran out of beast shards while playing, you were using them as a crutch
>>720642164agreed, tools are fucking gay compared to spells and charms
>>720641918>spam complies and do nothing for the whole game that would make it too easyYou can do that though, it just requires a little grindingTools should have been a little weaker but their uses should have regenerated on rest/respawn to encourage still using them without them being as stupidly cheesy as they are now
>>720642224>>720642224>>720642224
>>720642173No, just keep finding more crests and unlocking more slots with memory lockets.
>>720642220I think it's Bell Beast, arbitrarily.
>>720642087>and silk skills are far more spammableno they are not lmao, swing speed + soul gain charms in 1 gave you far more firepower and with significantly better spells too>with clawline you're still at a silk deficit when directly compared to just having good spacingclawline can punish anything, reach anything and react to anything in a way simple spacing cannot, it's a braindead move that sometimes leads not just to a single pip of silk but 3-4 hits into positive
>>720642173they're based on memory locket usage, which requires you to get the crests so you can spend them
>>720642087Obviously "hard" is a relative thing and it's different for everybody. Many of you are pathetic hopeless loser casuals, and I respect that.
>>720642083>screenshotsI have no idea why I don't just do this. I feel compelled to manually write them out for whatever reason.
>>720642164>waaah I can't build cheese! Now I HAVE to engage with the game's core battle systemI'm glad the system filters shitters like you out who just want to hide in the corner and spam projectiles
>>720642232>It still prevents you from just spammingThat's why everyone is farming rosaries and game has rosaries boosting charms. It's half assed trash mechanic.The shard consumption of some tools is just insane.
>>720642315o shit thank you I never would've figured that out, I've got 7 memory lockets I haven't spent
>>720638528the main theme of HK1 is ultra kino compared to SS's
>>720642317if you think add bosses are harder than any of the endgame bosses I don't think you're particularly good at the game
>>720642258>>720642340>game has a way to balance out their power>instead of just realizing that they shouldn't use tools constantly people go out of their way to make the game more miserableJust don't farm them and play the game normally.
>>720642335You can cheese the game easier than the original HK, worthless faggot. And unlike the original game, hiding in a corner and spamming projectiles is exactly what this game allows you to. It's just done in a gay manner, just like the rest of these shit combat mechanics.
>>720642191i think thats specific to the first sinner which is locked inside a metallic cage, i think that the fact that she is then in "statue" mode once inside is just a matter of the passage of time
>>720642392>>720642271Worth noting that you don't need 100% all memory lockets for Eve to give you her final thing. I think you can miss like three or four.
>>720638993I was scared when the duo appeared, but honestly it was very easy. They only ever attack one at a time, so it’s not much different from fighting 1. killed them on my first try
>>720642485>Just don't farm themI played like that. 95% of time I had no shards to use tools at all.
>>720642456I didn't read whatever you were replying to, I just wanted to insult you for fun.
>>720642485>just don't use a significant portion of game mechanics bro, the game doesn't want you to use themFuck off team cherry apologist. Charms are objectively the shittiest subweapon system i've seen in genre. It makes la mulana subweapons look like a pinnacle of gameplay design
>>720642489You being shit and going out of your way to make the game as miserable to play as possible is a you problem. The game is actively punishing you for it and you are doing it anyways. Just don't use tools quite as much. It's that simple
>>720642558ok retard
>>720641207He was spamming cp a few days ago
>>720642583The fact this game makes you miserable for using in-game mechanic is its own fault, not the player's. A good game would properly balance subweapons without introducing a fucking farming mechanic for them.
>>720642575>just don't use a significant portion of game mechanics bro, the game doesn't want you to use themI didn't say that fuckwad. I just said to stop OVERUSING them, a design component the devs clearly intended. If you're only spamming tools than YOUR the one ignoring the other mechanics of the game
>>720642298ok but quickslash in 1 mogs literally everything hornet has to offer in silksong. that is a gamebreakingly busted charm
>>720642556Than you must have spamming that shit like crazy, because I went through the entire game and never ran out outside of the side quests that force you to spend them all
>>720642672>OVERUSINGThe shards economy is so bad you don't even have enough to use them.
>>720642672>OVERUSINGA single use of the starter subweapon uses 7 shards. That's an entire screen worth of early enemies just to make it even. This is DOGSHIT balance, there's no "overusing" here, you're punished even for using a few of them sparingly because the shard drop rates are terrible.There's absolutely no reason for subweapons to have a farming attached to them, if they were so afraid of "misuse" they could introduce lower caps or simply adjust their power.
>>720642643It does NOT force you to grind to use them. You only need to grind if you overuse them.
>>720642771>Than you must have spammingNo. I'm exploring the game and dying. I wish I was able to use tools.Now I farm. Now I can use them casually. Dogshit mechanic.
>tools>upgrades>compassYou didn’t beat the game.
>>720642856It fucking does. Do you know how many shards you get compared to rosaries? In the time you gain a thousand from those gigantic bugs near clockwork dancers, you gain a whopping HUNDRED of shards.Stop defending shit mechanic, pathetic faggot.
>rng hitboxes>two hp damage on simple touch>addsDefend this.
multibinder worth it?
>>720642978You think that's tough? There's a worse version of Savage Beastly waiting for you later :)
How good are flasks?
>>720642978>rng hitboxesthis is cope

>>720643752in the towers? think there were just a bunch of spinny wheels you had to hit multiple times until the fans turned on
>>720643752Hit the lever
>>720643037A bit overpriced in my opinion. It turns a single +3H binding into two +2HP bindings (same silk cost) so it's a bit harder to use it on some bosses.
>>720644092>>720643037Never used multibinder, but the one that speeds up your bind speed is ridiculously good
Sinners Road or Blasted Steps firstBoth places are hellish
>>720644250Blasted Steps is much easier, I find.
Is it still possible to go back to the Abyss after getting silksoar?
how hard will I get raped here
This boss blows, shes don't play by the same rules as every other boss. Which sucks because aesthetically, she's great.
>>720644687It's not that bad
>>720644596Yeah, you'll take the bell to dive there again ocne you're ready
>>720643819Do you have the flintslate(tool behind simple key door in deep docks)? You can just use that for warmth
