Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

I don't think the Pantheon of Hallownest would be a good fit for the LP regardless of how much raocow likes boss battles. The whole thing takes over 40 minutes for most players to beat, and if you lose you have to do the whole thing over again. Add in the fact that it's bottom-loaded with the harde...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

i think I did. It appears Endings 4 and 5 occur outside the final boss. For reference: https://hollowknight.wikia.com/wiki/Endings The last two endings are both things added by the Godmaster update. Both of them require not only beating all four of the individual boss rushes, but also beating the f...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

yeah, reading the wiki on endings, it seems the order raocow should do things is: get the rest of the charms and buy out the shop, and do the Mr. Mushroom Sidequest/cleanup Do the Final Boss again Finish the Colosseum Final Boss #3 Deliver the Flowers Final Final Boss I think you must've misread so...

No, the upper left entrance was blocked off before he killed the Pale Lurker. He went in from the bottom and exited through the left.

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

Is it just me or did raocow blatantly overlook a gate that opened quite close to him when he defeated whatever that thing was he fought? There appeared to be a gate in the ground which isn't shown on the map but he didn't seem to even notice it at all. The gate was just the entrance to that arena.

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

In my experience, Carefree Melody procs really often. According to the wiki, "on average, the charm will block 22.4% of hits," which is is a lot for a game where you can heal fairly frequently.

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

In regards to some other things from this video, that mask piece and the path leading to it was there the whole time. However, double jump (or enemy baiting shenanigans) would have been required to get it earlier. Personally, though I'd say that the charms are worth it on their own, I'd also note t...

raocow.png for the record, you could've just gone this way Honestly it's a good thing he went the "wrong" way, because he might not have encountered Failed Champion and seen the Seer's last words otherwise. It's kind of funny how these past few episodes have just been piling on the sad de...

Makes me happy to see Descending Dark used so much in this video. It's a really good spell! The invincibility frames are super useful.

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

On the subject of the Grey Mourner, I will say that

the charm that Grubfather gives you for collecting all of the grubs is really great for that quest, but because raocow never changes his charms, I feel like he'd have to be specifically advised to try that.

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

You actually haven't fully explored the room in Kingdom's Edge that the guy's butt was in. The map filled it in as though you have, but there was an area near the top that you couldn't reach because you didn't have the double jump yet.

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Hide and Go Shriek

It's funny to me that two of the best charms in the game are available very early and very late, respectively( shaman stone and quick slash ) Not necessarily that late. You can go to Kingdom's Edge pretty much immediately after you get Desolate Dive. In theory you could pick up Quick Slash before e...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Shade Grown Coffee

There's going to be a point where an everything checklist is going to be needed. There's a lot of little unmarked points of interest sprinkled all over the place. Some of which raocow will absolutely want to experience. I think there's a decent amount of stuff that he'll uncover just by going after...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Shade Grown Coffee

The most tragic thing about Myla is how after you acquire Vengeful Spirit and then Desolate Dive, her dialogue changes, and you can see her slowly succumbing to the infection. She actually has unique Dream Nail dialogue for each of these states, although it's incredibly uncommon for people to see th...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Shade Grown Coffee

Myla's an interesting case, because I don't think she ever actually dies , so much as her mind just gets hijacked by the light. Corpses seem to usually take a while to be reanimated after dying, as evidenced by the Moss Prophet, whereas Myla immediately starts attacking you once she's fully infecte...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Shade Grown Coffee

The old Hollow Knight had that crack in its mask/shell, so the infection was seeping out, rendering it ineffective as a vessel. By supplanting it, you've essentially re-contained the infection, preventing it from getting worse, although that probably wouldn't reverse all the damage that the infectio...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Shade Grown Coffee

I do want him to find Godhome if only so he can fight Nightmare King Grimm. I know some people have discussed sending him a save file, but I feel like doing it in the Hall of Gods would require less hassle.

Maybe you should take a few seconds to look through the journal sometime. Some of the enemies have really neat lore information associated with them.

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - In the Name of the King

I've always found it pretty funny how the black tendrils end up being the most mystifying part of Hollow Knight for so many people who play it. And it's always the same pattern of going "I bet the dream nail will let me cut those tendrils" and then "I bet the King's Brand will let me...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Dreamgate

Oh, right, I wanted to make a quick note on something raocow said when he visited Kingdom's Edge in episode 45. Specifically, "Before I explore everything I need the ability to dislodge some dislodges." I might be misinterpreting this, but assuming you're talking about the black tendrils, ...

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Dreamgate

IIRC banishing the Grimm Troupe automatically unlocks him in Godhome. I don't know if raocow will actually discover the Godmaster content, though... It's in a hidden area of the sewers he hasn't found yet, and requires another simple key, which he can now only get from a hidden area behind the Colo...

You can still fight Nightmare King Grimm in the Hall of Gods even if you banish him, you just need to dreamnail the statue of Grimm first.

Re: HOLLOW KNIGHT - Dreamgate

It's really nice that the Collector's Map exists, because some of the grub locations are pretty dang obscure.

If only there was a map for charm locations... I don't think he's ever going to find Fury of the Fallen. Not that it's that useful.
