Trobibros
>>722075196Trobbio landed a part in Phantom of the Opera. Just not the part he wanted.
>>722075334Suicide is not in his repertoire. Trobbio is far too fond of himself for that.
>>722075685He's faking it anyways
>>722075196Oh no... Transbbio...
Stag is filtering me
>>722075868Use clawline more. Pins and silkshot (forma de Hornet) is also good for that fight.
>>722075730Yes. That’s the joke. It’s a Sherlock Holmes reference.
>>722076039> forma de HornetAre we giving fancy names for specific builds now?
>get to herrah>it's not a boss fight>you just whack her a couple of times and she diesseriously?
Remember when snoys hyped this up as the best Metroid game ever? That didn't last.
>>722076219Silkshot has 3 forms
>>722076275They're too busy sleeping to seal
how long until hornet big titty + jiggle physics mod?
>>722076286What's the best metroid game in your opinion?
>>722076449Prime 4 once it comes out.
>>722076286Wrong thread, pal.
>>722076275I liked it. It was adherent to the game’s atmosphere. Also liked Hornet appearing and for once being pacifist & just wanted time to mourn.
>Nick Gurr the Outcast>steals things from otherswhat did Team Cherry mean by this?
>>722076646Is this the worst fight in the game? I think it might be.
>>722076569>my last playthrough, Hornet didn't appear for Herrah>I know she can because it happened on my first playthroughWhat's the requirement? Beating her at EoK?
>>722076696watcher at the edge
>>722076696Not even close.
>>722076696He's not the unravelled, nor the pinstress.
>>722076860I'm genuinely clueless as to how I beat 3 fucking waves of this guy and his bullshit hitbox that isn't just "get a thousand shards and the alchemist crest"
>>722075196sus
>>722076860Why do people hate this one?Stand in the middle and jump occasionally, avoid the spears on that phaseIf you do the oil quest you can even have the final nail
>>722076275all the dreamers have someone protecting them, for herrah it's all of deepnest, but the other two dreamers have proper bosses defending them
>>722077067Guess they found him early, I didn't find out about him until after finishing Act 3 and he was easy, one shot him and I don't really remember what he did beyond flinging some needles and charging across the screen
>>722077067>If you do the oil quest you can even have the final nailthe final nail upgrade is from the flea minigames howeverbeit
>>722076275It's supposed to be Hornet but she let you do it to see if it would help
>>722077245you need to go back
>>722077245Ah right, well you can have the second to last>>722077203Charges at you and throws projectile bodies. In a later phase it summons spearsI can't remember any other attacks. It summons a couple adds at some point but they're easy ones
>>722077270no need to be so hostile, you sound like a grub nationalist
>he searched how to find the final nail upgrade before attempting the late bosses
I just got the Apostate key, and I suspect that this witch crest stuff is behind one of the doors in the slab. I've heard getting cursed is a lot of trouble, do you get locked out of a lot of stuff for hours, or is it a quick 5 minute thing? I want to get the crest sooner rather than later.
>>722077067>fuckhuge body and hitbox that easily clips you while jumping over or approaching from behind to attack>disappears into the floor so much it's effectively turn based>only two attacks are moving into you and throwing bodies, has to be supplemented by annoying spears>has 10 billion health>already long fight made longer with add waves inbetween phasesIt's all of the worst parts of bad bosses condensed into one.
>>722076860Worst hitbox in the game award. He made me rage because the fight felt rigged, corrupt, completely unfair.
>>722077454You're on the wrong side of the map if you're looking for that
>>722077454You can get rid of the curse relatively quickly if you want to.
>>722077454Removing the curse is a short sidequest. It's pretty quick if you know where to go. The game points you in the right direction, and if you've been exploring, you'll know exactly where it's sending you.
wait soul tyrant is kind hard
>>722076729Correct. I believe you need the King's Seal for her to show up in Deepnest.
>>722077454Don't forget the achievement for finishing the game while cursed i.e not curing it
>>722077907Pay attention to his teleports. He likes to double teleport to fuck your reaction up. Double Jump is almost required for this fight.
whats the point of having Seth appear so late? >autistically hidden area behind another hidden area that you have no way of knowing about unless you google>his friendly appearances are only in spots that the player has no reason to go back to/through at that point in the game>no hint on his next spot of visitation once you do find himi know theoretically you can find him much earlier but for 99% of players he is just going to be a random mini boss you fight before heart of the woods and then never see again.which is a shame he couldve been this games Quirrel, like an adventure buddy that follows with you throughout progression.
PantsCrusted
>>722078010Devs don't want to be ceding too much ground to cancer beggers.
do you even get and achievment or anything from beating seth's score? do mementos even cout for 100%?
>>722078010>Quest marker hints at his location>The spots he appears can be naturally found by people doing the quest to kill the void massesThe only reason he's not found so easily is because he could accidentally dick somebody out of the Pale Oil from the flea minigames if found too quickly.
>>722077535Fair enough, I find it easy enough that I didn't mind it
>>722078010>i know theoretically you can find him much earlierYou can't. You need to be in Act 3 to reach him. Encountering him is mandatory for the story though (unless you figure out that you can do Green Prince, but if you're wandering that much, you're gonna find Seth anyway) since he guards Nyleth.
>>722078286>The only reason he's not found so easily is because he could accidentally dick somebody out of the Pale Oil from the flea minigames if found too quickly.Is that true? I've noticed the threshold for a game score going orange is always the lowest record rather than Seth's...I think.I'm too lazy to check this right now
>>722077917Makes sense, really. I guess plotwise, there's no call for you to be waking the dreamers until that point>>722078258No and no
>>722078284HAHAHAHA ANAL BEADSHAHAHAHAIMAGINE HORNET PUTTING THESE UP HER BUTTHOLEOMG HAHAHHA
>>722078010I found his first spot on my own after the Crow summons
So the game theme is maternity huh?>Daughters that are not real daughter>Mom that can't pregnant want a daughter through magic>Mother sacrifice herself to protect a made up child>Ending is you taking up the role of the mother and taking care of a brat
>>722076860>>722076917>>722077051>>722077067I had zero problem with this guy, but I also came back to deal with him while I was content clearing for 100%, and I think he was actually the last boss left on the map before the final boss run for me, i think. Totally forgot about that keyhole in the ward. So I guess that's my recommendation. Just be otherwise geared to the absolute maximum bro. Then it is easy. Like what are you even doing? Just clear every other piece of content in the game before challenging the boss dude, its a no brainer, come on.
>>722077907are you doing it before or after shade cloak
>>722078432>there's no call for you to be waking the dreamers until that pointWaking the dreamers is tied to the monument at Resting Grounds. The King's Seal/Kingdom's Edge is entirely optional, you have to do it for True Ending but the game never actually tells you to go there in the course of the dreamer objective. It's perfectly reasonable to find all the dreamers before going to Kingdom's Edge.
>>722078509I don't think I even had double jump when I beat him
>>722078538Don't you need shade cloak to access Monomon? Which needs the king's seal
>spending 80 rosaries on a string from Grindle yields the same 60 string as it does buying it from anyone elseWould have been a nice character moment if they had his strings be worth 40. Or have him charge 100 for 60 string.
>>722077067He's not hard. He's just grindy and punishing.
>>722078632He still feels the slap Hornet gave him. He ain't gonna push his luck
>>722077592Witch Crest ISN'T in the slab? Where the hell is it then??? ffs i'm never going to find this thing
>>722078521BEFORE FUCK THIS NIGGER IT'S A 10 MINUTE FIGHTIM AT A +2 NAIL
>people confusing "worst" and "hardest"They're not always linked, fellasSkull Tyrant is probably the easiest boss in the game and it's also one of the worst because that fucker killed Pilby
>>722078632Do you absolutely have to free this guy? Only good thing he ever did for me was selling me the magnetic dice (which apparently you can also get from the guy who challenges you to a gamble in blasted steps).
>>722078737you gotta find the tree baby in the ducts then give it to the witch npc in shellwood
>nintenyearoId throwing a tantrum againmust be a day ending in y
>>722076860I fought him late and just melted him with wanderer crest + flint.
I know this is shitpostBut I don't get the obsession about banning new games to /vg/. It's not even been a month
>>722078794I didn't free him on my first playthrough because I was stupid and assumed I needed a key for some reason. Nothing changes, he gets out anyway
>>722078627No, actually. You can get to Monomon with shade cloak OR Isma's Tear, you only need one or the other to beat the game (shade cloak gets you through the gate visibly blocking Cornifer, but Isma's leads you in from Fungal Wastes, which is actually how Cornifer says he arrived). You need both for true ending though (since either/or gets you to Monomon, but both are required to get to Traitor Lord).
>>722078565what happens if you do not open the bonegates for her at the begining of the game?does she get past them on her own eventually?do you absolutelly have to open them to progress further or can you just leave her to rot at the start while you go on to beat the game?
>>722078786You could have saved him.
crazy to think that the whole flea questline and fleatopia and everything can be skipped if you dont enter that little map pocket in The marrow where you first meet the fleas.
>>722079182I talked to that son of a bitch every time and he still died
>>722079206>enter>try to complete it>miss my chance at fighting unnerfed moorwing with only 5 hearts and no nail upgrade
>>722079241You should have left your sidequests for Act 2 instead of trying to completionist-run everything in the early game he moves on to Pilgrim's rest only if you haven't done the Skull Tyrant hunt by the end of Act 1
>>722077535Forgot that you can't even pogo him.
>>722078820I've been to the Putrified Ducts but haven't done Bilewater yet. Do I have to do Bilewater?
>>722078435You alright? Gonna start crying?
>>722079507ah yes. the tree baby is actually in bilewater.
>>722079507For Witch? or in general? In general, yesfor Witch, not really. You find the thing in Bilewater but it's a special area of Bilewater accessed via a secret entrance, you only have to get in, find it, and make your way to the nearest exit, you don't have to "do" Bilewater, by which I mean the main boss or explore most of the map
>>722078409I just beat Seth's records yesterday. The score does go gold based on beating him.
>>722078565>FARI DURA SIMANET>DONI PUANA VORINETinferior to >AI YAI YAI YAI YAI>OOSH KA LO, OOSH KA LO-OOO
>get to act 3>lose all interest It just feels like work now.
>>722078590Same. I didn't even have the 2nd needle upgrade when I first fought him. I did leave him until I at least got that.
>>722079652>mfw secret entranceI just want fun new crests, why is the game being so crypticPart of me wishes I could have stayed spoiler free, then I'd be traipsing around blissfully unaware that I was missing half of the game's stuff.
>>722078820Pretty sure the baby is on Bilewater, I found it accidentally after discovering Bilewaer "accidentally" because I was wondering what was lower on that spike fall and climb next to the Vaults
>>722079119Wasn't there a shade gate actually inside the teacher's archive?
>>722077454It's more like a quick 20/30 minute thing.
>>722079171First of all, Sherma is a boy. And he can get through locked doors just fine on his own.
>>722079780All inferior to>*humming*
>>722079868Minor hintSpend some time exploring The Vault. That's where you'll eventually find your way in
>>722077051Pogo jump over him.
>fighting Nightmare King Grimmwhat the fuckthis is way harder than anything in silksong
>>722079380You can, it just doesn't damage him. But it is still useful. It was the only way I could consistently jump over him without taking damage.
>>722079930This. The game implies that Sherma has the ability to talk to doors and gates, and can just ask them to unlock.
>>722079507bilewater is easier to do after putrified ducts btw
>>722079206They put it on one of the Wish boards eventually, I do wonder what happens if you find every flea before talking to them or picking it up though
>>722079095I also didn't free him because of this. The only thing you miss out on is the throwing pin tool, which I THINK you have to buy from Grindle if you didn't free him and pick the tool up from his cell.
>>722079901Nope. In fact Teacher's Archive really encourages you to have acquired Isma's Tear, since the only way to Monomon without it is careful use of Crystal Heart, it's clear that the intended "minimal progression" is to get Isma's instead, and that the shade cloak only path is just an optional alternative routing.
>>722079960Thanks, I already found that. Game dropped me into the maggot water and I noped the fuck out.
>>722079282>mfw I refused to let the system update my game and got to experience it pre-patch>Also beat it on a second try, fucker can't attack under itself
wow this is ass
>>722080142It has i-frames.
>>722080082Then you've already found the area you need to find to get your fetus. Check the area with the vines that look suspiciously similar to the ones in a certain part of Shellwood, rather than looking like the rest of Bilewater
>>722079345Everyone there dies too
>>722080040Nope, he freed himself in my playthrough but the pin was still in his cell.
>>722080142It's one of the best spells in the game
>>722080036There's dialogue for it, but that's it.
>>722080142by far the best spell in the game
>>722080236Nope. Because he leaves after you talk to him there. So he's gone by the time Act 3 rolls around and SHTF.
>>722080215Booting up the game now. I'll check the slab first, then I guess it's finally time to bite the bullet and see what Bilewater is actually like for myself. The stuff I've heard has me dreading it lol.
>>722080268Oh, interesting. I could have sworn I found the pin somewhere other than the cell on my first playthrough. I guess I misremembered.Would have been cool if that were the case, though. I mean, am I supposed to believe that Grindle just left a perfectly valuable tool when he escaped?
>>722080275>>722080307>>722080315up+circle is the best one and you know it
>courier delivery>but even worse
>>722080340Where does he go then, is he confirmed alive if you do all that?
>>722079282I think at this point we all know that Silksong's equivalent of Godhome will have the pre-nerf Moorwing and Sister Splinter as bonus variants.
>>722080352If all you want right now is the crest you can just pop in to that part you reached from the vaults.
>>722080382Not saying you're wrong, but up+circle doesn't have i-frames. Desolate Dive has more utility in that regard.
>>722080421Nobody knows where he goes after that, IDK if data miners confirm he just disappears or not, but there's no canonical location that he shows up, either alive or dead.
The weavers in Hallownest are refugees fleeing the influence of GMS, right? Is there anything in Hollow Knight that hints at this apart from Weaversong?>Silken charm containing a song of farewell, left by the Weavers who departed Hallownest for their old homeSo they get BTFO by Mother Silk, run away to Hallownest, get BTFO by the infection, then run crying back to Mother Silk? WTF is the lore, here? Dumbass bobbleheads.
>>722080421No one knows. He just disappears.
>>722079976It's a genuinely very poorly designed fightYou can tell the original grimm was the "real" version and they just injected cheap extra teleports and input reading into all his attacks afterwards
>>722080432Both will be platform arenas above spikes.
Why isn't the Skull Tyrant appearing to fuck up Bone Bottom for me? I'm on my second playthrough. I'm in Act 2, learned Pilby's name (and he moved on), and I've long since turned in that quest. And yet, he doesn't appear when I bench in Bone Bottom.What's up with that? What are the exact conditions for him to appear?I wanted Pilby to die so I could see the funeral scene while knowing his name
>>722075196
>>722080457>>722080352This, you can just grab your parasite friendo and follow the path down, it leads right to the exit area there's a stagway on one side and the mist on the other side. You don't have to actually DO Bilewater yet, most of the bullshit parts are in the other portion of it which is almost entirely disconnected from the area it drops you in except by a single hallway.You will still eventually have to do Bilewater, of course, it's mandatory for accessing Act 3. But if you just wanna fuck around with Witch Crest it isn't really tied to the area at all.
>>722080614Did you kill the first one?
>>722080415Give it to elder bug
>>722080382>Be me, way back when>Attempting Radiant Markoth>See that he has 650 hp>Abyss Shriek deals 120 damage with Shaman Stone>Imagine this ideal strategy where I fill up the soul gauge and nuke him with 4 shrieks>Try it>Knockback always pushes him away>Even trying to pin him against the ceiling or in a corner doesn't workMy opinion of Abyss Shriek PLUMMETED on that day. As far as bosses go, it's designed to hard-counter the Radiance and not much else. I felt so ripped off lol.
>>722080682>and I've long since turned in that questThat's what I was referring to, Anon
>>722080518>maybe if we go back she won't notice the half wyrm we left there
>>722080707Fucks up flukemarm too.
>>722080518They left for home, no idea of they actually made it back, they could have seen the walking corpses near the blasted steps and go "fuck that see you in Hollow knight 3" and go somewhere else, hopefully with less pale beings
>>722080432>pre-nerfno it'll be much harder than thatgo boot up godhome right now and compare attuned to ascended, the difference is light years even on the easiest bosses
>>722080614You probably know this already, but I thought it triggered when you purchased everything in the shop. Everyone leaves after the attack, so you have to buy everything first so you don't get locked out of stuff.
>>722080880Oh, right. Yeah I should have mentioned that the shop is empty and that I already killed him for his 50 rosaries
>>722076646I have no memory of fighting this guy
>>722080978Optional boss hidden behind an Act 3 quest. Because of the way Silksong calculates percentage completion you can get to 100% and not ever fight him or even encounter him.
>>722078010Him, Karma and Crust king are all original patron backers/large supporters.Aka they're lazily tacked on additions to the game
>>722081145His quest gives a mask fragment actually, so he's needed for 100%
I feel like every map gets handed to you right away in this game. Didn't feel like that in HK.
>>722081180Oh, shit. Well, never mind my stupid ass then.
>>722080580Grimm won't do that if you fight him correctly.He has points of no return on his more active moves where once he's done them, he's locked in, it's only if you act too early he'll react.This is the gimmick the fight is designed around and why people have referred to it as a dance, he moves then you do.You might only get one or two hits off but that's offset by the fact he has one move where he floats in the air pathetically summoning fire pillars where you have basically free reign to beat the shit out of him.
>>722076860he's the worst boss, because he's so painfully boring
>run away from Moorwing>he chases me with the flying attack>dodge it, hit him, repeatIs this cheesing?
>>722081328No, you're just using your superior dexterity
>>722081328You beat the game
>>722081193There are a few where you have to hunt for them, and that's assuming you can afford them with all the other stuff you're spending rosaries on.
>>722081328>notice a boss's telegraph>correctly execute moves that directly counter the telegraphed attackThis is quite literally how you are supposed to play the game.
Just 100%d my savefile.I have two hidden achievements missing, which I assume are from the secret bad ending and maybe fighting Shakra? Aside from that it's just the speedrunning cheevos and the steel soul one.
>>722079976>>722080580I don't remember noticing input reading with NKG. My only issue with the fight is that it's very Simon Says, there's pretty much one way to deal with each of his attacks. At best you can get some extra hits in if you're good.
you did get this achievement before daring to post in the thread, right anon?
When did it become acceptable for a boss to attack from off-screen?
>>722081526It's more than that. If you stay and fight him he has multiple attacks, you're reducing it to a situation where he only uses one.
As a new player 6 hours in am i supposed to be up here? I had to do parkours and kill 2 minibosses to get in these place. It feels like i shouldnt be here
>>722081695If Team Cherry didn't want us doing such a thing, why is it in the game?
>>722081725Congratulations, you just beat one of the hardest early game encounters and your only reward is about 200-300 rosaries.
>>722077067Giant hurtbox, tiny arena, way too much health, only has two attacks, one of which is just charging at you.
>>722081725I'm 15 hours into the game. I remember that spot, but not how I got there.
>>722081685I dunno, but that's not even the worst offender. Lava beastfly does it a bunch. And GMS does it some too, which is especially annoying when you're trying to beat her needle only without healing.
I was expecting Skarrsinger to be harder but all you have to do is parry her fan attacks and stay grounded unless she jumps.
>>722081267Wrong, don't post again
>>722081875Top of Hunter's March I believe
>>722081875the one where you have to attract the bugs and jump off of them to get to the 2 minibosses
>>722081685Should have kept him on screen unless this is a joke about him burrowing
Hornet POV
>>722081962Don't worry, it's not necessarily a "spot you're not supposed to be in" sort of thing. Literally the only reward is the rosaries in that room. You can safely never go back there ever again.
>>722082001So lucky
>>722081267What's the "correct" response to his dive-dash?If I'm mid screen I can dash away and it's fine, but if I happen to have been cornered it feels fucked because he stands up mid dash and his head hits me even double jumping
I never bothered with parrying in HK. I figured it wasn't meant to happen on purpose, because I saw little benefit to it since it doesn't stun enemies like other games.
>killed monomon and unlocked the seal>still can't get the fucking map for fog valleythis game is retarded
>>722076860Would he be as hated if he could be damaged via pogo?
>>722082139It's a good way to avoid contact damage on certain boss attacks, namely those where they run across the screen while slashing. Granted, you can also avoid damage by just jumping, but eh.
>>722082139I think the timing is tighter in HK. It feels a lot more like something you can go for on purpose in Silksong.
>>722075196Holy KINO
>>722082210Could he even damage you? I think only the spears would hit you then
>>722081685When you got a free "I win" button, that's when.
>>722075196Is it worth clearing Bilewater?That place is pure aids and after seeing the final stretch I've lost all motivation to finish it
>>722081725welcome to the bait area that you're excited to do later because it's hardyou can either persist and fight the most complained about boss in the game, or you can run away like a cuck cowardme? I didn't bother with that area until until I got a needle upgrade
>>722082331Required for the true ending. Have fun! :)
>>722082210Then he'd become a flukemarm tier joke. Which would be an improvement, yes.
>>722082331You need to in order to unlock act 3.But that also means it's fine to just leave it for the very end of act 2, instead of rushing it before you're fully upgraded.
>>722080142it has an absurd amount of invincibility frames, it's broken as fuck
>>722082331yes
>>722081962Never done that. But if the minibosses are Savage Beastfly and that big ant with a club, I did fight them. Maybe I just used a running jump.By the way, I walked away from Savage Beastfly until I upgrade my weapon, because I hit it like 50 times without killing it.
>>722082350>needleTools make this encounter a joke. All you need is Sting Shard and Curveclaw and it's ezpz.
>>722082464Is there any way to get i-frames in SS?
>>722082392fuck.I guess I really need to learn how to navigate the trap area. With all the shit flying and retard ninja bugs running away I always lose health by the time I get to the boss>>722082453>>722082484I may just come back later. I just beat the dancing twins boss so I have other places I can go 1st
>4.2% of players did steel soul in the original HK>4.8% did godhome, which requires a near 50 boss gauntlet including NKG, Zote, Pure Vessel, AbsRad and any other things you might trip up onHow the hell did fewer people do steel soul? Steel soul is really easy in the first game due to the sheer amount of safety upgrades
>>722082559Cheated cheevos
>>722078778Get the +3 nail. It's not hard, there are 6 pale ores and you only need 2 to hit the third stage. If you've got the double jump, you can get the one at the top of Crystal Peaks, the one in the tram station, the one from Papa Grub, the one from the Moth, and the one for defeating Nosk. The last one is from Colosseum of Fools.IMO, Soul Tyrant is a mid-difficulty dream fightKarmelita > NKG > Grey Prince > White Defender > Radiance > Soul Tyrant > Nyleth > Failed Champion > Clover Dancers > Crust King Khann > Lost Kin
>>722082331no, wait until after beating the basic end boss and then go back with the anti-maggot charm you find in the third maggot area
Why do we hate Nuu, again?
>>7220825581. Those green bugs endlessly respawn, meaning you can farm silk off them for heals/aids treatment.2. You've found the hidden bench, right? You know how to get past that one bit without going into the maggot water, right? (Hint: Clawline)3. If you REALLY want to put it off until later, there is a tool that helps mitigate the maggot water that can be found in Putrefied Ducts
>>722082026You do if you miss the ant trader in act 1.
>>722080415It is more bearable when you can teleport so you can redo it immediately without the bench reseting.
>>722082520I'm not sure if sharpdart has actual i-frames or just makes you immune to contact damage. And cross stitch is sort of like i-frames. That's about it.
>>722082610>there are 6 pale oresmy dude i've found one
>>722082610>added lashesfunny how quickly a design can go from stylized mask into pure feminine sex.
>>722082696Oh, I'm guessing you find the Curveclaw or the Fractured Mask there then?
>>722082559Permadeath spooks people more than difficulty.
>>722082108Take it with a grain of salt because it's been ages, but I think pogoing. At least I'm sure there's a move of his I always countered with that.
>>722082691we don't, the presentation pre-release made it seem like she was a perv, but she's just a goofy kids that doesn't know betterthe dedicated perv character is the spa flea
>>722082774The boomerang yes, that's how I got it on my playthrough.
>>722082691Imagine the head Nuu gives. I bet it feels as tight as a virgin pussy.
>>722082559most people do a single playthroughsteel soul requires a 2nd playthrough
>city of tears rain is from the lake abovewhats the rain in Greymoor from? bug piss from the sewer of the citadel?
>>722082108pogo and move sideways midair.
>>722082691Nuu is great. She helped me find the watcher boss that I would have otherwise never found.
>>722082559>>722082783Yep, never bothered with Steel Soul because permadeath sounds like a hassle. But I did beat all the pantheons with all the bindings (separately).
>>722082108You want to pogo him as he dashes, not where he'll stand up.If you're cornered you can dash underneath him before he dives.
I dislike the first boss, it's just uninspired and its stupid hair reminds me of the hornet clown meme. Can't hold a candle to the charisma of the false knight.
>>722082921Moss Mother isn't supposed to be the equivalent of False Knight. That'd be the Gruz Mother.
>tying up a few lose ends in the Slab for 100%>decide to check the Broodmother arena>they’re growing a new broodmother and you can’t kill it or do anything about it FUCK
Why is Act 3 such a fucking pain in the ass?
>>722082520parrythe parry silk art (crosstitch or whatever it's called)allegedly scuttle (item) has themmaybe the pogo for a milisecond after it connects, but maybe it's my imagination
>>722081669Bold of you to assume i've beaten the game at all.
>>722083001Gruz mother isn't mandatory for progression though, silksong literally places an invisible wall over the only other exit out of moss grotto until you beat moss mother on the other hand.
>>722082875Silksong lacked the attention to detail and SOVL of Hollow Knight.
today I will remind them
>>722082921it's just there to make sure you learn to pogo, you're too hard on mossmother for what she is
>>722083145>allegedly scuttle (item) has themNot i-frames, but it does shrink the hitbox.
>>722083145Scuttle is the most overlooked Tool.
>>722082902>>722082783I literally don't believe you, there's nothing in the game that surprise kills you like it does in other games. If you're even half beating godhome you'll sleepwalk steel soul.I don't believe this at all, I think the guy saying people cheated is correct because there's no way. The base game is such a cakewalk compared to pantheon.Hell pantheon basically has permadeath because you literally have to do all the fights in one go. That's way spookier than playing the regular game.
>>722082875It's all from the pale lake and runoff from the putrefied ducts. I guess most of the pollution and maggots settle in bilewater and sinner's road.
>>722075685His leg has fallen asleep
>>722082875>>722083183It's silk dregs from the citadel, not rain. That's why you have the scissors and fork guys; their weapons are tools for collecting and cutting the excess silk.
>>722076286It's on Switch 2, fagaloon
>>722083308Personally I did steel soul, but never finished the pantheons. I'm just telling you that, for a lot of people, a permadeath mode is an instant no. And cheating doesn't make sense, because they would cheat both.
>>722083308It's about what you lose. If you fuck up a pantheon, it's annoying because you've lost like 20 minutes of progress. If you fuck up a Steel Soul, it's annoying because you've lost like 4 hours of progress.That's a LONG fall to climb back up. It isn't about the difficulty, it's about the expected frustration.
>>722082875holy shit that's kino
>>722082559Steel Soul is more boring and tedious than anything.
>>722083308>sneeze and die to brooding mawlek>dash stolenPretty sure that's not how pantheon works
>>722083248>just integrate this new random button combination into your muscle memory bro>I swear it's good bro>it has iframes, maybe
>>722082875Nothing. The map’s geography is pretty disjointed this time around. Biomes leak in and out of each other with little rhyme or season. The only area that made some sense was Sinner’s Road > Bilewater > Ducts
>>722082875There are lore bits which suggest it's silk. They have workers in Greymoor who gather up the falling silk and haul it back up to the Citadel
>>722083530All of this only unironically.

>>722083248Make it a separate button and then we will talk. I won't press Right Alt + Left Binglebonkus + Bellybutton to do the same thing dash does.

I had an old ass tab open and spotted a (you)>>721978967I don't have a video, but it surely happened. I was quite surprised by it.fwiw, it IS mentioned on the wiki so it's not just me https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Moorwing>A wooden platform to the right of the arena can be destroyed if Moorwing swoops into it, at which point it won't respawn.
>>722083786>>722083729Butterflies are associated with lifeblood/plasmium.
>>722083248>Have to down Down + Dash to scuttle backwards>Pressing Left/Right + Dash has basically the same effectIt should just replace your sprint, or not have such an unintuitive button combo. Why do I have to hold down to move backwards?
>>722083630>>722083386If there’s so much silk it’s literally raining from the sky, why can’t they prevent Phantom from fraying?
>>722083837I have literally never fought Moorwing in its intended area, because either I move the fleas early or I go to Shellwood through Wormways.
>>722083880If a rock golem is decaying, do you think just shoving rocks onto it will fix it?
If Hornet can heal herself, why did she never do it when I fought her as a boss in HK?
>>722083853Team Cherry better get to work on that plasmium DLC
>>722082691>>722082868>>722082805She's not going in for a kiss, she wants to suck Hornet's haemolymph. That little horror probably has some kind of piercing organ inside her mouth.I like Nuu but you have to realize she's a monster.
>>722082504Yes, but consider that you just blew through all your shards Sting Sharding Beastfly's adds because you don't have Thread Storm yet.
>>722083880For the same reason that making a wig out of donated hair doesn't stop a person from balding. Except in this case the silk is part of her existence and "going bald" means dying.
Be honest, you cried.
>>722083880Line must go up>>722082787>>722082878>>722082905thanks fellas but I couldn't consistently pull it off so i started going dash one way, jump, dash other and that consistently kept me safe even if i lose damage
>>722076517>Nintenslop that isn't even out yetYou are no longer allowed to steal oxygen. Off yourself at your earliest possible convenience.
>>722083880What gave you the idea that they can't? Lace is fine and she's made of silk too.
>>722084125Cope
>>722084178How is it a Zanzibart situation? This is a person YOU KNOW dying and his loyal mount grieving
>>722076646>>722076785>>722076917>the Outcast>Watcher at the Edge>PinstressHow the fuck do people get filtered by bosses like this? All of them are piss easy. The Pinstress has 3 fucking obviously telegraphed attacks, all Outcast does is float in midair and spam traps for easy punishes, and the Watcher is so slow and easy to avoid he makes you feel like the Flash even if you're using Reaper.How are you niggas so bad at games???
>>722079976NKG is the only thing I haven't beaten in non-Godhome Hollow Knight. Was legitimately afraid that Silksong would be too hard for me because of that based on all the difficulty hype, but it really hasn't been that bad. Regular Grimm is a cool dance of a fight against an elegant gentleman (if you don't just cheese him with abyss shriek and health stacking), but Nightmare King just felt like impossible bullshit with no openings to hurt the bastard. Knowing he's in the boss rush made me steer clear of all the godhome pantheons, given I'm too skillless to even beat him normally.
>>722079976ngl he's very easyHas VERY set patterns
>>722082558There is a secret little alcove just before the gauntlet that can refill your silk if you need to heal/get rid of maggots.
Karmelita was a joke compared to this fucking Verdania gauntlet man I'm getting my arsehole blown out here. I've even resorted to tools and I'm STILL dying.
>>722080415Never did it, no requestsIn Silksong I sometimes picked up a repeatable quest just for funsies.
>>722083946>>722084028Ok, but then why doesn’t the silk rain stop after you trap GMS?
>>722084379You actually don't need to do the gauntlet, it just unlocks a shortcut if you lose to the princes.
>>722079976beat him for the first time yesterday, don't know why I had so much trouble to the point of giving up back then when I first played ithis patterns are very simple and offer very little variety, he's just very fast and you can't hit him that much when he's openit's a game of patience more than anything
>>722078384>You can't. You need to be in Act 3 to reach him.You can get to him in act 2, you need charge attack, the beast crest and I think the double jump (which you can even get in act1). You can't fight Nyleth at that point tho, since you don't have the song.
>>722084241Looks like slop, just like everything Nintendo has ever released.
>>722083956you don't get Soul from pure void being like The Collector, so she's unable to heal against Ghost.Presumably she has enough regen for silk arts tho
>>722080880Pebb can still be in Bone Bottom during the attack>>722080940Pebb's a lady, idk how so many people miss that
>>722084480Because that's not where the silk is coming from. It's woven into all of the bugs of the kingdom.
>>722084514It's there so I need to do it. These bugs gotta learn.
>>722084045I missed out on most Garmond interactions, so Pilby hit harder.
>>722084287They are bad bosses because they're boring and easy, anonAre you simple? The question was worst, not most difficult. Difficult fights are good.
>>722080415Courier's Rasher is on a time limit. You can take your sweet time with the flower. I did it first try.
>>722084684>t-they're just too easyShitter cope. I bet you use Architect.
>>722084673Man, my Pilby seemed to just disappear without any fanfare. I don't understand what I missed.I learned his name but I never saw him die and nobody mentioned him at all.
>>722084673
>>722084746Please work on your bait, anon. This is like early 90s internet level of amateur.
>>722084851>it actually is an ArchitectshitterKek.
>>722082185You only need Isma's Tear to get the map, no?
>trolling outside of /b/
>>722084920>calling someone out for being shit at the game and crutching on the most busted Crest is "le trolling"
>>722084875Beast, actually.Seriously, you're FAR too predictable and easy to control. You're not supposed to make yourself angry when you try to troll, nonny.Work on your form.
>>722085001>u-ur madFirst day here, huh?
dude these is INSANE these waterways are massive and there's NOTHING down ehre
>>722082743Should probably explore more, then. IIRC, you only need 2/3rds of the grubs to get the Pale Ore from Papa Grub. You can get the ones from Nosk, Crystal Peaks, and the tram station quite easily leaving Moth, Grub, and Fools for later.
reminder to do your duty and tidy up the shitposters, anons
>>722075196Beat the game.82% in 48 hours.I at no point ever removed Hunter cause I got too used to it. Any crest worth maining on replay? Is there a Game + Mode that let's me replay from the start but with a new crest?
>>722082743>>722078778Use your fragile charms. They don't break if you die in a dream.
>>722084287Pinstress isn't bad because her offense is overwhelming, she's bad because she's allergic to getting into attack range even via clawline and would rather fling pins in your face before hiding above the arena edge for another ten minutes.
>>722085061>He doesn't know
>>722085198>Use your fragile charms
>>722085204don't reply to weak baitsrsly it has multiple question marks, nobody does that if they're posting sincerely
>>722083729Reminder that he's a Higher Being putting him in the same category as Grandmother Silk.
>>722084748He gets a funeral. No one else knew his name, so if he told Hornet she tells everyone else. It's especially memorable for me because it's how I learned that the needolin is this game's dream nail. The other bugs sing for the funeral so I pulled it out to play along and started getting text I wasn't expecting. And then I went down and played some by Pilby's body.
>>722084045Meh, I had a more emotional moment with this fucker and only because he was my very first taste of the dream battles so I wound up having to git gud with him as my teacher.
>>722085458What is Bardoon's power level relative to other Higher Beings?
>>722085458did he say he was one?
>>722085603Nuu clears.
>>722085340Honestly, skill issue. You can get 6.5k geo from the banker if you max out your deposit with her. You gotta go find her again in the City of Tears and you can clobber her for lodsa emone.
>>722084673>>722085469In my playthrough I actually saw Plibly in the rest stop in Far Fields but I never saw him since.
>>722085603Void > Radiance > Pale King > Grandmother Silk > Nightmare Heart > Unn > White Lady > Bardoon
>>722081725I don't know what the ants even want rosaries for, only one of them is calm enough to trade and they just fucking invade and take the rest
>>722085764How did Pilby make it to Far Fields without a weapon?
>meet npc in silksong>"HORNET CAN YOU GO AND FETCH ME 30 ROACH ANUSES I NEED TO EAT THEM">meet npc in hollow knight>"OHHHHHHH ZANZIBART"
>>722085839He can fly. Way weaker bugs than him make it all the way to the citadel.
>>722083145>maybe the pogo for a milisecond after it connects, but maybe it's my imaginationApparently it's crest-specific. Hunter and Wanderer have a millisecond or so of iframes, beast has more (so you can often pogo THROUGH enemies like Last Judge), reaper has none.
>>722085839The game world is an abstraction, anon.Pilgrims walk less populated roads, and hide behind rocks and shit. They go slow and avoid the dangers every chance they get.
>>722086051>reaper has noneWhy does team cherry hate this crest so much?
>>722085839Dunno but he was there and it was the last time I saw him. I digured I'd see him in Greymoor and Songclave but I didn't.
>>722078632It's nice to include some jewish bugs
ABSOLUTE CINEMA boss list:>Lace (all versions)>Widow>Phantom>Trobbio>Cogwork Dancers>First Sinner>Second Sentinel>Silk>specifically and only the beginning/ending of Bell Eater>Seth>Karmelita
>>722086051Why do we hate Beast Crest?
>>722085904but zanzibart was in silksong though?
>>722086364Yeah, pretty much spot on. I hate that I missed Second Sentinel until damn near the end of Act 3 though, because I shit all over what should have been a really cinematic fight.
>>722085904She's just laughing that everyone else in high society got turned into a zombie because she hated them.
>>722083214That's a lot of words. Too bad I ain't reading 'em
>>722086346Molluscs aren't bugs.
>>722086374The awful pogo
>>722086503So much SOVL in this image. Why were Hollow Knight NPCs so much more memorable?
>>722078858Image was made by a crying and shitting nintendofag
>>722086520I'll summarize it for you>TRANNIESTRANNIESTRANNIESTRANNIES>DARKSOULSDARKSOULSDARKSOULSDARKSOULS>I AM SHIT AT THE GAME
>>722086609Are they? Shakra, Lace, Shirma, the flea Circus and so on are pretty memorable too.
>>722086573For me it's the tool slots. There is no reason for any crest to not have at least one blue slot.
>>722082691trying to kiss people without consent is sexual harassment
>>722086364Why omit Last Judge specifically? That's top three for me.
>>722086845Sexual harassment is a good thing. We had a much higher birthrate when sexual harassment was more common.
>>722085340>>722085198Greed being a fragile charm is such bullshit. You're never going to make enough from its minimal bonus to every match the 9k you need to make it permanent. The completionist in me demands that I do it every playthrough though.
>>722086775>Are they?Yes
>>722078010Seth is a backerslop-tier character and shouldn't be any more prominent than he is
>>722086051witch pogo has very generous iframes (you quite literally vanish from the screen) but it sort of "locks" you onto your target so where you reappear feels a bit awkward. It ends up being very clumsy against lost lace, for example, since if you normally pogo her after baiting parry the witch's pogo will automatically put you into her counterattack afterwards
>>722086903I made that much just free roaming looking for all the collectables and doing the arenas though.
>>722086845She's a small child.
>>722075196Delete this
>>722086951I don't understand why they have to make him such a cancer to fight hehe hehehh HAHAHAHHHAHAHHAHAHAHA
Grand Mother Silk is actually a pretty fun boss, it’s just a shame that it gets heavily trivialized with healing unless you have the parasite up Hornet’s ass.I just now anxiously await for an Absolute-tier version that will arrive in four and a half years.
Do I lose my only opportunity for Last Stag if I beat Green Prince beforehand?
>>722084515>>722084345Yeah I just beat him around 10 minutes ago, it's one of those fights that goes from WTF to "oh i can reliably avoid everything" after a bit. Sort of similar to Lost Lace.>>722081267>he moves then you doThis helped a lot, tons of his stuff becomes 100% reliable if you just stand still until he acts. Again, just like Lost Lace.Lost Lace still felt easier though.
bro why do they make the fast travel stations so fucking far from each other
>>722087141Yes.
>>722086864Too piss easy.
>>722086374It's legitimately great against bosses, but holy shit any boss with any kind of pogo-based runback is just a chore. Can't wait to use it in whatever Godhome DLC they end up putting out that let's you just fight bosses without the extraneous bullshit.
>SHAKE IT
>>722087187fugg, I'll go get him now thanks
>>722087141Actually fighting it, yesNot sure for journal entry as the other Verdania entries autocomplete upon beating the Prince, but I saw some comments saying they didn't get the Stag.You're not missing much if you do skip it since it's pretty dull
>>722086779>make a crest that's great at boss fights>don't give it any blue slots Giving it the option for yellows (the traversal/farming tools) feels like an extra fuck you from the devs.
>>722075196>Buy the game when it comes out>Play it for 30 hours to explore every posible area and do every quest >Reach act 2>Stop playing >Haven't touched it since thenAnybody else feels like the game didn't live up to their expectations?
>>722087141Is that the green deer, I thought you were talking about the fast travel bug from the first one
>"You climb up by pogoing!">"How original.">"And all the walls are covered in spikes!">"Daring today, aren't we?"It starts at Shellwood, like a couple of hours into the game, and just never ends.
>>722087272I bet if verdania didn't get relegated to a memory the stag would have been a clawline tutorial boss.
>>722086918I agree, there was nothing equivalent to the rainy bench with Quirrel moment I don't think I ever did just stop to enjoy the ambiance in Silksong
>>722087363The game is really good but it doesn't have the same level of soul or atmosphere as Hollow Knight.
does isma's tear actually unlock shit? I already killed the other dreamer dude by skipping to him with crystal dashI still don't have the shadow cloak dodge or whatever
>>722087363I finished it, did every boss (besides the Steel Soul exclusive one, wtf were they thinking), got 100%. But I do feel like the game was a chore for the most part. I will probably never play it again, unlike Hollow Knight.
>>722087129Pretty sure GMS is balanced around Hornet potentially being riddled with STDs and unable to heal, given there's an ending/achievement tied to it.
>accidentally killed him with crystal dashOOPS
>>722087481Silksong never lets the game breathe; you're always going from one thing to the next with no downtime in between. Hollow Knight was full of little moments that added a lot to the game and their absence from Silksong is sorely missed.
>>722087363For me this happened sometime after Coral Chambers. I thought "fuck this area is really cool, we're finally in the Citadel" then it turned out that only the Coral Chambers had that kino atmosphere. The other areas like Sands of Karak and Underworks and Vaults and ducts all felt extremely underwhelming.
>>722087420That makes too much sense.Some anon had a similar theory with Nyleth being the wall climb tutorial boss since it clearly belongs to Shellwood, but they didn't fit for being an early game boss.>>722087481Could've had one with the Coral Tower area, that place is visually wonderful and you even had the windows deep underwater.Closest for me was the bench on the right in Sands of Karak with the dead body, followed by that area where you meet Shakra and her master for her quest.
>>722087526>besides the Steel Soul exclusive one, wtf were they thinkingLocking the means to bypass the shard grind in the permadeath mode only is some grade A bullshit.
>>722087481>I don't think I ever did just stop to enjoy the ambiance in SilksongI did in the Choral Chambers. The bench near the High Halls entrance and Songclave as a whole are pretty good. Wish there was a "Quirrel in City of Tears" moment with the former, but Sherma was already taking a bath and Garmond was too busy fighting so I don't know who else would've fit for that.
>>722087767Yeah that pisses me off too. But I cope by thinking of how late into act 2 it is.
>>722087767You bypass the shard grind with a rosary grind, which is infinitely easier. Shards from enemies are supposed to be for topping up at benches between vendors. You just need to spend rosaries on stuff you actually need instead of blowing it all on underwhelming stuff you won't use or bellhome gimmicks.
Soul...
>>722087626>you're always going from one thing to the next with no downtime in betweenThat's you, anon. Silksong even has its own version of your pic with Zaza and Garmond.
>Thought SS was quite a bit harder than HK but finish everything in it>Go back to HK expecting it to be a pushover after SS>manage to struggle more with some random nothing bosses than I did with some SS onesI guess it wasn't actually harder, I just got worseDon't get older, bros. It ruins you.
>>722088054HK has a much more even difficulty curve. With SS they throw enough upgrades at you to trivialize most of the game.
>>722087790>a "Quirrel in City of Tears" momentFor me it was Sherma at the bench in the blasted steps. Especially when he falls asleep.And who doesn't stop at the top of Mt Fay for a moment with the moth?
>>722088054Dude it actually perplexes me that some people cleared SS bosses easily while I had a fair bit of struggling at times. And I fucking did P5 with all bindings.Basically these two games might feel similar but they are vastly different, so adjustments aren’t exactly 1-to-1. Don’t fret about it basically.
>>722087171I don't know why but Ventrica/Bellway hopping annoyed me more than these spread areas in HK even though the ventrica stuff is way fasterMaybe it's cause of crystal dash? I was definitely disappointed the Silksong version was only vertical.
>>722081725i struggled with this fucking miniboss for fucking hours, thinking the i'll get a glimpse at Karmelita or find the shop selling the Boomerang and Bone Mask after thisI even made every attempt coming from a savepoint in the marrow because i did not find the switch to turn off the trap in the resting benchi strugled and strugled basically dumping thousands of shards trying to kill that spear chugging motherfucker so i could finally deal with the big guy in peaceFINALLY I BEAT ITwhat could possibly be behind this door?a short cut?a power up?a town?a new item?a new tool?a little bit of lore?NO!!!FUCKING MONEY!!!THAT WAS MY FUCKING REWARD!!!MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!FUCKING MONEY!!!!!!!!!!Why does this game hate it's players so fucking much?
>>722077067He's the most drawn out boss in the game.>spends 75%+ of the fight underground where you can't touch him>two add phases where he is again underground>immune to damage from the top>only attacks is to move from right to left (requiring you to jump over him where he cannot be hurt) or throwing shit at youEven Trobbio spends only a fraction of the time under his stage and pops out faster. Unravelled isn't difficult at all, he's just boring.Even if you were to play completely optimally, he'd still probably be one of, if not, the slowest boss in the game to kill and you spend most of the fight just waiting for him to re-surface.
There's a flee up there but I can't get past the spinning buzzsaws...
>>722078858
>>722088591There's a breakable wall outside and a little further down

>>722088591It’s a troll flea they put a breakable wall down from that one, because it’s funny to make the player think they have to do this dumb wall jumping
>>722088478Because it is, unfortunately, a shit game.This is not something people are ready to hear, but it is the truth.
>>722087363>explore if you want but most common reward is often a one time stack of farmable resources>you do not feel a power increase until late past half the game because everything just kills you in 3 hits>most orange notch equipment might as well be place holder but you're still stuck with equiping them>useful difficulty mitigation equipment like the silk injector, volt filament or long claw locked behind late act 2>tools range from ocationally convenient to cheese broken with nothing in between>crest system bind useful utilities like silk farming to incompatible slow movesets or cool movesets to annoying healing gimmicks>there is always an optimal way to build the crest with maybe a few variant options>spells aren't good enough to offset the risk of losing a heal considering how punishing mistakes can be with the little margin of error the game gives you>game punishes you with shard grinding if you fail an atempt while using tools to mitigate difficulty so you are encouraged to ignore relaying only on nail and silk7 years of every other indy game ripping of Hollow Knight because of how perfectly balanced it's difficulty curve and how flexible and customisable the charm system were and Team Cherry goes and botches the sequel just for the sake of trolling steelsoul speedrunners
>>722089553a much easier fight than the clockwork dancers though I never actually managed to dodge the middle circle spam when I fought them
>>722087036BRObio would never ever associate himself with FAGmaster Grimm
>>722088478Skill issue
>>722089067>Because it is, unfortunately, a shit gamebut it didn't have to beeverything that made the first one great is still here burried beneath piles and piles of bullshit as if it had been developed by H1B visa stooges!why? WHY!?why did they have to ruin it!it's so painfulnothing but a complete overhaul could fix itnot even mods can fully correct all the bullshit pilled on top of this gameit didn't have to be badit had everything to triumph and soar higher than the first
are you fr do I really need double jump to get to the third dream dude?
>>722087036Unfortunately for Grimm, all his coolness was sucked outta him by the existence of Hazbin Hotel.
>>722089979You could try lure enemies and pogo
>>722089979 no
>>722089903skill issue is me suckingthe reward being shit is the game suckingposting "le skill issue" is being a sucker
>>722089979Yes. Or you can pogo off the prop that you destroyed to reach it anyway. That's the only double jump check throughout the whole building.
>>722089979Nope, double jump is optional.
>>722090000I never thought Grimm was cool desu. He's an edgy scene kid.I would have tolerated that quest far more if I didn't have to babysit his stupid ass useless baby.
>>722088591Just reaper pogo straight up the shaft because the hitbox is so fucking fat you can pogo things completely to the side of your hitbox lmao
>got all the endings plus 100% completion >just missing speedrun, speedrun 100% and hunter mementoI think I’m good, game was good had fun, was pretty challenging but some of it is overblown imo, worst part was by far first savage beast fly
Is there any indication given as to which HK ending is canon?
>>722090485Wait there's more than one ending?
>>722090441In HK speedruns were a lot easier than steel soul. Or at least less annoying to do.
>>722090485Sealed siblings
>want to go to Karmelita>start at Far Fields bellway>go through the upper corner of Deep Docks>passage blocked :^)I'm done.Kiss my ass, team cherry.
>>722090135This. He looked like a deviantart sonicsona way before it was uncool.
>>722088729I put my round peg into your square asshole instead
>>722076860once i figured out where to stand to jump and avoid his charge the fight became literally braindeadit was also the last thing i did before finishing act 2 so i was very strong, i imagine doing it without double jump would make me want to kill myself
>he didn't enter the citadel of song through the wisp thicket*CLAP* YOU *CLAP* DID *CLAP* NOT *CLAP* BEAT *CLAP* THE *CLAP* GAME *CLAP*
>>722090803Based "whole game is a dream" twist.
yay :Dway better than the silksong version too>called monarch wings>found in the ancient basin... not the queens gardens
>be told how hard groal is>overhear someone say how busted the boomerang is, carry it along at all times>meet groal>ohshit.jpeg>beat groal first try
>>722077246Never realized thisHornet already tested Little Ghost once, perhaps twice depending on where you went. It makes sense that she would think he's strong enough to let him break the seal
>>722090135The worst bit about Grimm is that fighting him is the bad ending. Actually banishing him instead of perpetuating the cycle his guys are stuck in means not fighting him.Genuinely feels bad.
Damn Hornet and her stupid huge fucking forehead. If this was the Knight he'd never hit his pretty tiny head on those stupid spikes.
>>722091092Groal the boss is downright fair, it's just a slog getting back to him and doing the gauntlet again
>>722091075ancient basin is where the palace used to be
this is such fucking bullshit all of these dream bosses are silksong garbage tier NONE OF THEM LET YOU HEAL AND THEY HAVE TOO MUCH FUCKING HP
>>722091326Did this part a couple of hours earlier, my thumbs still hurt. Best of luck.
>>722091776Wait until you get stronger then
ok list of maximum tries and hours per boss before considering yourself SHIT ad having to give up at silk song
>>722091776Lost Kin is one of the easiest though. It's barely different from the Broken Vessel and can be done immediately after, since you already have the Dream Nail by the time you fight the basic version.
>everyone missing the most likely duo for a godhome style super boss
>>722091776Of all the bullshit bosses silksong has, none of them are like the dreamers. The closest would be the pale stag.
>>722091776In my experience he’s actually easier than the default
>>722091818No need to worry. I have very thick callus formed on my thumb already, so it doesn't hurt anymore.Also, pro tip, I don't know how many people here are aware of such basic thing, but if dash towards a wall, you can do an upwards wallrun, which can proper you a bit further upwards if you do it off an edge of a wall.
>>722076860this boss is a joke with the Witch crest since the heal hits through the armor, or Silk storm i guess too
>>722091074SS= sealed siblings SS= silksong the signs were there
absolutely impossible you cant even dodge his attack there is no safe place to stand AND YES IT IS A HIM ITS NOT A HER FUCK YOU DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE FUCKING DIIIEEE
>>722091916Sherma and Pilby
>>722081685I think this is my least favorite boss
>>722091326>get pass the area>come back again to check the walls for PoP secret entrance>didn't find itI can't be this autistic..
>>722092160forgot image
>>722091074>2038, hollow knight 5>final for real super mega secret true ending>screen is fully black>zoom out reveals its actually the eye of a bug>the whole story was the dream of an irl beetle that ate a (mister) mushroomkino
>>722091916It's Seamstress and Pinstress, which is the obvious one because of Oro and Mato.Fatkra would be more like Sly.
>>722090052Your lack of skill is in being unable to find a simple secret (the hidden switch) plus not undertanding that the battle is supposed to be done later since pogoing on randomly moving enemies is clearly not an intended progression path. It's not a hard battle if done at the right time.
>>722090485Either a godhome ending or dream no more.
>>722092256The only reason to kill him is the hunter's journal entry. And that's easier done later. I do think he's weak to magic, so you could try that if you're being stubborn.
how this niggas got like dream protection or some bullshit
>>722092256>wait for him to attack>jump on platform>attack up>quickly hide back down>repeatyou can literally do this blind
Do you think Hornet would've felt bad about the Radiance dying if she knew she was fluffy?
>>722092256I just poison boomeranged him
>>722092160>>722092256Use cogflies
>>722092710that is fucking cheating
>>722092694Bro is on the moth's payroll. Just wants to waste your time farming essence to artificially pad game length.
>>722092256>>722092160Anon, I killed it at the start of the game with just the nail... It takes a while with no upgrades though.
umbrel
>>722092256I beat him at the start of the game just by hitting him once and hiding, only to find out that you can't progress beyond that area yet. This game is full of fucking dead ends.
Own a Buzzsaw for Bellhome defense since that's what the Pale King intended. Four Snitchflies break into my house.>What the radiance?I exclaim as I grab my Faydown cloak and Cogwork Wheel. Shred the organs of the first bug, he's husked at the spot. Throw a Curveclaw at the second bug, miss him entirely because it's a boomerang and apply 3 ticks of venom to the neighbor's flea. I have to resort to the Silkshot mounted on my Materium crafted as a Railgun.>Hegaale!The round punches through two bugs in one shot, the sound and spalling summoning Shakra to her vendor spot. Draw my Needle and charge the last staggered journal entry. He has the silk drain from him before the Wardenflies arrive because 3x sharpened Hivesteel is a 1hKO to basic enemies.Just as the Pale King intended.
>>722090485team cherry wants us to think it's somehow dream no more at the same time as embrace the void
>>722092827>farming essencefucking hell let me guess 2,000 essence needed?also bullshit that there's no secret room here that requires double jump
>>722091818>>722091326I got tilted when I was doing this because I didn't have the wall grab trinket onEventually I said fuck it and backtracked to the bench to put it on, then cleared the thing in about 10 minutes
>>722093005>the wall grab trinketIt's one of those charms I put on and never took it off. Honestly, a little disappointed in the talismans in Silksong. A lot of them seems like they're either super situational, or outright underpowered.
>people dont realize silksong references mario 2 USA
Can you not get a map for the fucking Putrified Ducts?? I swear I must have gone through most of it and I still don't have the fucking map. I should have just stayed in Bilewater for fucks sake.
>>722092256I killed him pretty early on. I didn't have cogflies yet (or most other tools for that matter) so I used poison sting shards. If you set them and then smack them upwards, they fly up and hit him
>>722091326Where is this?
>>722093005>>722093112Can't stand the clicking noise it makes plus I'm way too used to accounting for the slide in the first place>>722093209If you had poison it can't have been that early on, I killed him before I had Dash, he just takes forever but he only has the one exact same attack
>>722093184There is. Might be in one of those spots you need a tentacle to pull you up to.
You know what? I'm just going to imagine Seth isn't on the leaderboard.
anyone here play as badly as DSP? or is it less about his bad play and more about his garbage ass attitude?
>>722088591
>>722093628Haha, what a story Mark!
>>722093595I saw one clip of that guy but I feel like I'm qualified to say it's both.
>>722092118SS is also Schutzstaffel. Really makes you think.
>>722093686It's amazing how people forget you can just pogo off most hazards. Only organic spikes aren't pogoable
>>722093595I get tilted pretty easily and by Act 3 I was butthurt as all hell during Nyleth and the Ant Singer.Second playthrough now and I’m just casually rolling everything without tools.
>>722092256Just throw poison cogflies at it.
>>722092823It's literally the intended way
The weavers deserved everything they got
>>722093268You'll get directed there by one of the wishboard tasks in act 3. Not much point going there otherwise.
>>722093826the intended way is to damage him before he damages you without needing to dodge away or hide like a sissy i bet you use cover in shooters
>>722086779You can just wait for the vestigal so you can always have one blue tool
>>722093975Skill issue
>>722093683
High halls is really boring
>>722093595It's the attitude, it's definitely the attitude. Every time I saw someone crying about a difficult segment in this game it was always later followed up by finding out that they ignored mechanics that would make the segment easier.
>>722093595after seeing clips of streamers fucking up basic stuff in games and laughing at them I started paying closer attention to my own gameplay and I realized that its very easy to play like garbage for a minute or two. but when you're at home you just go 'dam i suck ass' and try again and get it. if someone was immortalizing my worst moments playing any game, let alone silksong, I'd probably come off worse than dsp. Thank god I'm not a dancing monkey streamer faggot!
>pumped to fight emo trobbio>beat him handily after like 4 attempts without trying too hardhuh
>>722093595His garbage ass attitude is what makes him bad at most games he plays, DSP himself said he wants games to hold his hand. So when he has to stop and think is when he starts getting mad.
>>722094146It does feel comparatively empty to most other locations, even in the citadel.
>>722094146
>>722092913Reminds me of the start of 9 Sols where Yi is using holograms to tell stories. Both instances are comfy.
>>722081145>Because of the way Silksong calculates percentage completion you can get to 100% and not ever fight himFunny thing, that. I got to 100% even without killing Karmelita for her heart or Shadow the ThrobHog for his extra mirror.
>>722094249I know now you can disable the robot spiders that steal your silk, its right before this room
>>722094146>>722094248Memorium should've been part of it instead of a separate area.
>>722088662I had genuinely no idea. I thought the pogo was the intended method
>>722081145>Because of the way Silksong calculates percentage completionHow does it calculate percentage completion?
>go to the edge of the world>npc there called mask maker>"you already have a mask why are you here?"ok
>>722093683can you actually win the final race without needing to hit him?
>>722094249is this in the high halls? i haven't had a single npc show up to help in any fights
>>722094395think its based on collectables
>>722078286I read he doesn't move to fleatopia until you finosh the flea games.
>>722093435Found it, and I was right, I went through the whole thing and fuck the whole thing I came here is because I thought it connected to Bilewater at the top there but not. Should have just finished off Bilewater.
>>722094432hit him a bunch to make his mask fall off. then talk to him
>>722094146High halls is like one platforming challenge and a gank arena, it didn't need to have it's own map and should have been a side area of the choral chambers the same way soul sanctum was a side area of the city of tears or wisp thicket was a side area of greymoor.
>>722094432Mask Makers are a world building NPCThey are enslaved by their masks and can only talk freely if you knock their mask off first
Took a couple day break from postan in these threadsHope this message finds you wellSherma WILL be loglocked and forced to breed Hornet btwThis post was made by the AWWOOOOO gang
>>722094632Why would I hit him? He's not done anything to warrant that
>>722094651>enslavedI think it's more that it just makes them focus. The Mask Maker wants his mask back on so he can make the masks better, he already wants to do the job.
>>722094358Does it need the simple key?
>>7220929791800 for the awoken nail needed to get into that guy's dream and get half of the kingsoul needed for the voidheart and the true ending. Then it's 2400 purely for an achievement and a completion percent.
>>722077116>for herrah it'sCUT BOSS
>>722094927No, you need the double jump.
>>722094927No, but it does need double jump.
>>722094881They're under contract to higher beings to make masks for their uplifted, the Mask they wear IS the contractWhen you are under contract by a god, you are effectively enslaved
>>722092809If you use cogflies you are a shitter nigger loser and you did not beat the game
>>722094606I thought it did connect to Bilewater though.
>>722094857He knows what he did.
>>722094927Its in the Laundry room just before the fightYou push a laundry cart to a correct spot and then jump through the ceilingI don't know if you can kill all the robots in the next room, they seem to be infinite spawning, but you can just ignore them to find another secret exit and cut some threads to disable them forever
>>722095172The area around the hunter's hut connects to Bilewater, but you need to enter it through Bilewater and can't get to the rest of the Ducts (including Fleatopia) through it.
>>722094651Mask makers are like a nothingburger npc. They do say some interesting stuff sometimes but anything relating to "masks" in the broader view is nonsensical. They just seem to be stand ins for Ari since he voiced the first one
>>722095312>People keep saying shit like NO ITS HORNETS ACTUAL HEAD>Mask maker comments on the fine make of her MaskAbsolute Nothingburger
>>722090815They just don't want you to miss out on going through the gangbang room for the second time, that's all.
seems Phantom isn't needed for act3
>>722095540Imma let her compose in peace and check back in on her in act3 and tell you what happens
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glmckOZYrGk
>>722095438Masks are faces. Mask maker sees everyone's face as masks because of course he would, that's his life. He speaks in figurative language.
>>722095540Correct, only Last Judge so you can move the fleas.
>>722095763He distinguishes between masks and faces. Also, you literally collect mask shards.
>>722090135>He's an edgy scene kid.He's actually a dying old man, that's why the ritual is happening in the first place.
>>722095763The Simp is a character that collects Masks to change his roll for his Simp targetMasks define a bug in more ways than being a simple face
