Grandmother silk is one of the only few good fights in the game
And that's because it's not turn based garbage
>>
maybe youd be able to land more hits with less retreating if you were using chad hunter instead of slop reaper

Land hits when the last judge does that fire spin every 2 fucking seconds?

Why would that stop you from attacking, just pelt her with tools while she's immobile
>>
>>746008763
she blocks thrown tools during the fire spin attack, dunno if aoe like pimpillos do though
>>
>>746007370
Most of the bossfights are great, the only one I don't like is the Unravelled because it goes on for what feels like hours and Groal because it feels like the game wants you to cheese it.
>>
What part of Silksong is turn based?
>>
It's only good if you're doing the cursed ending. Otherwise, it's way too easy for that stage of the game.
>>
>>746010567
Well it's pretty much meant to be the equivalent of the base Hollow Knight fight, an easy enough challenge to end the game on for casual but only a step towards the true ending.

Good morning sir, do not redeem the bloody turn base
>>
>>746007370
I wish more bosses has no contact damage.
There are some 10/10 bosses in Silksong ruined by having to remember their repositioning logic to avoid getting hit by them blinking to a new spot.

>>746014005
>it's hard because it... takes longer

On turns

>>746007370
Facts. It's one of the few fights that feels like it's a hollow knight one.
>>
>>746014243
No, you're just too shit t at spacing to use the proper openings so any boss that is agile and doesn't go AFK for 5 seconds after every attack is "unfair bullshit"
>>
so whens the dlc
>>
>>746014410
I haven't played the original but this shit feels like it's 2d dark souls 3

>>746007370
its the most disappointing fight in the whole game

>>746007370
Pretty much. So many fights in the game are attack 1-2 times then dodge 5 times.

>>

Almost none of the fights in Silksong are "turn based" though. It's one of the things that places the game's bosses so much higher and above Hollow Knight's.
The game really is a big improvement.

There are plenty of good fight. GMS, All Lace fights, Widow, Last Judge, Phantom, Signis and Gron, Cogwork Dancers, First Sinner, Karmelita...

If you aren't hitting them during their clearly marked dashes you are just losing DPS.

Regardless of your views on Karmelita, Khan is Z tier by himself. He's even weaker than most non boss enemies. Dying to this boss should automatically uninstall the game from a pc.
>>
>>746024378
>>Crust King Khann
i mean, he was fun, but looking back on this i probably put him in a bit too high
b or c tier would work for him
same with first sinner, but her i placed a bit too low, i'd put her in b tier now, although i still don't like the particle rng hell that is her last phase

Yes, your opinion is pure garbage by putting a boss weaker than the average regular enemy as A tier in a game where boss fights are important.
Yes, you are a big huge faggot. He is objectively the shittiest boss in game.
And you wanna know how I know you're a faggot? You're mentioned Karmelita's gauntlet. You count Khan's gauntlet as part of his encounter (even though... you don't have to beat them back to back). YOU ARE WRONG. YOU ARE BAD. YOUR OPINION BELONGS IN A TRASH CAN.

Oh but you like Crust King Kahn who does the same shit but is way more boring?
>>
>>746025076
>You count Khan's gauntlet as part of his encounter (even though... you don't have to beat them back to back)
i don't precisely because you only have to beat khann's gauntlet once
i just thought the boss was cool, that's it
you should really kill yourself
>>746025167
not really, i did say that in retrospect i put him too high
he's pretty forgettable as an actual fight

You mean the thing you do in Silksong once you git gud? That's the whole point of mastering combat systems like this, they don't just give you cheeky damage opportunities for free

Of all the dumb complaints about this game, the contact damage thing has got to be the dumbest.

They're enemies. Why shouldn't they deal contact damage?

In theory this is the bare minimum I should do to get Witch within 3-5 hours, without the cloak, clawline and killing exactly 6 bosses out of 47
>>
>>746030795
As soon as you have the Twisted Bud you're eligible for the Witch Crest I think. You just need to bring it to the worm witch in the forest
>>
>>746029782
NTA, but it's a shit and bad design to raise the difficulty artificially instead of making bosses have interesting and cool moves.
Take the unraveled: he does nothing, he's one of the most boring boss. All he has for himself is his retarded contact damage.

It's just not interesting.
>>
>>746031082
Nah, Unravelled was fun and removing contact damage in that fight would make it way too easy. Let me guess, you don't want Savage Beastfly to deal contact damage either?
>>
>>746031082
>shit and bad design to raise the difficulty artificially
And there it is, that meaningless buzzword: artificial difficulty
There's nothing difficult about enemies that just let you just walk through them because you can just go brain off and smack them till they die. No concerns about spacing or dodging or anything, just tank n spank. It's why GMS is a joke
>>
>>746030996
I know that. I want to streamline the route as much as possible because TC are fags and put that crest (and Architect) in Act 2, ruining my crest only challenge runs. I want to get the crest as early as possible so I can experience as much of the game as possible with them. Obviously I could use mods for this but fuck that shit
>>
>>746031856
There are fights where the lack of contact damage makes sense because of how the boss is designed, like GMS and Fourth Chorus. Removing contact damage from the Unravelled fight would be stupid though.

Why the hell would you use objectively the weakest crest in the game? Why the hell is every casual gravitating towards it?
>>
Is it true that some anon here got mindbroken by Fourth Chorus when the game came out? Haha.
>>
>>746032564
free silk blobs mmm
>>
>>746032812
Every other crest attacks much faster and just naturally harvests more silk without having to wait for a bind and collect orbs. This mechanic on Reaper exists only to prevent it from falling behind too much.
>>
>>746032564
The buff feeds itself perfectly, you always have a bind ready with this shit. And for noobs, binding is the be-all-end-all, so they love it
>>
>>746032564
>Why the hell would you use objectively the weakest crest in the game?
Because at around the release date, wikis were still under construction and crest descriptions were vague at best. Most people who read reaper's desc. thought that the slower and heavier attacks would also mean stronger, like in less attackspeed but more damage per hit, which was a wrong assumption. By the time people realized that reaper is legitimately the worst crest in the game, they have already built in the bad habits of the downwards pogo input lag instead of learning literally any other pogo, so they either had to learn a new moveset without the training wheels of bigger range during a harder boss fight, or just cope and stick with reaper till the end, or drop the game.

>>746032812
Every hit that goes towards the silk balls, doesn't go towards the boss, which makes the fight last even longer, considering reaper is like 50% slower compared to every other crest.
>>
>>746032564
Is it true that you didn't beat the game if you used the Wanderer Crest?

He tried disproving it during phase 1 but then he realised he looked like a retard and was probably going to die so he pivoted to playing the game in the "intended" turn based way
>>
>>746034685
I have. That was my critique towards this game, and playing other games doesn't makes it only worse. In addition to that the bosses also can't be respawned unless you redo the whole game again.
>>
>>746033869
Nah, you're right. With the full vesti, witch has 4 blues, 2 reds and 1 yellow which is everything you could ever want. Youtubers popularized the bind mirrors nuke build, but you can do so many things with it

>>746034885
IMO, Silksong shines more in its gauntlets (esp High Halls and Coral Tower) because multiple overlapping enemy patterns are largely unpredictable and you have to react on pure skill rather than just memorizing when the bad man swings (and this is also why action roguelikes are awesome), but different strokes I guess.

>>
>>746032564
Reaper makes pogoing easy for general exploration, and many players ended up getting comfortable with its moveset and playstyle to the point where they find switching to other crests jarring. If the game gave bosses health bars then people would probably be more likely to experiment and realise that other crests give them better DPS, but as it is you get practically no feedback from the game about how well you're doing unless you reach the bosses' second/third phase.
>>
>>746034017
>Equip the double damage taken tool (that doesn't even give you +100% damage, what a ripoff)
>Boss takes just as long beating up than without the tool because you play it extremely safe
>>
>>746035112
I like and understand that the game can't just be all highs but the game had just too much "exploration" for my taste + I really like games with set levelselects so not being able to respawn bosses or redo gauntlets just makes me annoyed when I do them. Because yeah, I beat them, but I really could done it so much better now that I know how to do it, but I can't.

>>746036935
So instead of pressing circle you hold R1 when it's not your turn?
>>
>>746037008
I build witch to parry spam, and it's actually better than Wanderer for it. Longclaw, volt filament, spool extender, sawtooth circlet for blues, flea brew and voltvessels for reds, Weighted belt for yellow. You can also use flealia with plasmium phial for cheaper parry spam, silkspeed anklets for extra speed or dice for memes, replace longclaw with reserve bind for security, and you dont even have to use the parry, just spam threadstorm or silkspears with wanderer-tier swing speed and range larger than fucking reaper.
Witch's bind is both a blessing and a tradeoff. Treat it as such, and you can do amazing things with it
>>
>>746037653
>hold r1
thats the attack button? so yes, you can in fact attack enemies during "their turn", which makes it so its not their turn. Your guard counters, jump attacks and charge attacks will stagger them before they can kill you. Pair with some source of combat healing like Prayerful Strike for best results.

This stupid "waiting your turn to attack" meme doesn't apply to Silksong because the game lets you attack anytime. Bosses can be hit during attacks, every attack has a safe spot somewhere on the screen, and you have spells and tools that let you hit bosses during "no-go" attacks like the Last Judge's fire spin.

Silksong is actually WAY more inspired than rollslop. The focus on agility and weaving through attacks rather than using iframe dodges is novel as hell, and I wish more games would take its cue.
