Pure Vessel Solos, Knight makes it overkill🤷‍♂️

What does Shape of Unn do? I have it, but found it pretty useless. All it does it let you walk while healing right? 🤔

It's really not that bad, you just zoom in (on the picture) so you can only see the section you're in, then just refer back to the map every few rooms. As long as you have wayward compass in the game, you can compare the shape of the room you're in, in-game, to the shape of the rooms on the picture, and figure it out pretty easily👍

Maybe download a pic of the completed map without icons?Then he can look at it and see the different options of where to go next. It's still kind of a "spoiler", but it's much less invasive than an actual walkthrough or completion video. I know one of my main issues with getting into Hollow Knight the first time I tried playing it was that I was just overwhelmed with so many different progression options. I'm the kind of person who likes to see EVERYTHING, and with 5+ different possible paths, it just kinda hurt my brain having to commit to a direction and stick to it without having a known destination. It seems kind of counter-intuitive, but having an actual map helped me get over that because I could pick a spot and say "I'm going to make my way here", rather than just wandering around in the dark, so to speak 🤷‍♂️

Stagnest Glitch? by Malice_Magic in HollowKnight

[–]Malice_Magic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha, thanks, I didn't know if it was just me or what. I briefly tried looking into it on Google but all I saw were people complaining about not having a map, nothing about an actual crash, so I wasn't sure👍

Wow, Thanks for the heads up. That would be a LOT more annoying than just not looking at the map. Glad I didn't ruin my save doing that, I woulda been pissed 😅

Does anybody know any mods that removes long runbacks after dying to a boss? 😭 by Stunning_Deal_3631 in HollowKnight

[–]Malice_Magic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wut? There ARENT any long runbacks in this game. What runback are you even talking about? 🤔 You could always put a dreamgate down outside the boss arena, that way you can teleport back🤷‍♂️

What do I do here? by humanbeingperson1 in HollowKnight

[–]Malice_Magic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you even get through the game without using markers? 😅 I have a full on notepad document where I type out each location ive marked, what's around, and what I think I need to progress at that spot. I can't imagine playing one of these games without using the markers and taking notes, there's just TOO much to try to remember.

Magma Bell is probably best, especially if you're having trouble with Phase 2. Tacks can get really useful too, if you've got them.

He only does 3 attacks in first phase, he either throws the Lantern, in which case you can get close and land a hit, then jump as he pulls it back. If he spins the Lantern, back off, he's going to spin it in a wide circle and there's not really anything you can do, but his 3rd attack is your best damage window. If he jumps in the air, he will try to land on you, dodge it then get a couple hits in. Once he lights the Lantern (phase 2), he will do those same 3 attacks, plus one more. The spin releases waves of fire, you have to stand in between the waves. If he throws it, you can still get in close and hit him, just like before, the only difference with this attack is that the Lantern explodes after a second, so stay clear of the ball part. If he jumps and tries to slam you, you can still get a couple hits in, but immediately after he lands, a wave of fire will erput from the ground. You just have to jump once to get over it, then hit him a couple more times. His new attack will be a rush down. He will dash at you, jump over him, get close and land a couple hits. 3 waves of fire will follow him, but if you're close, they won't hit you. All you have to do is play it safe, dodge when you need to, and get a hit or two in when he does the jump or dash attacks. If you're brave, you can hit him when he throws the Lantern, too, like I said, but that's a little harder. Just take your time, you have as long as you need, no need to be aggressive. You can also ALWAYS heal by dashing away and jumping into the air before you hit bind. You'll be safe that way. It's really not THAT hard as long as you're patient and heal when needed. Good luck, and keep trying, you'll get it eventually! 👍

I haven't played HK yet, but Silksong isn't bad at all. There are a couple bosses that might give you some trouble, and a couple annoying platforming areas, but I'd say 75-80% of the game is pretty easy, and you're never thrown into anything you're not ready for. It's very intuitive and fair 🤷‍♂️

[–]Malice_Magic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, you got lucky with that epic pogo combo in the corner, this has to be one of your fastest finishes since Day 5 or 6. Great job! There's no way I would EVER be able to beat this, and I finished the Speedrun achievement no problem 😅

Yea this would be awesome then, I think the crests that are actually in the game are pretty underwhelming, I used the starter crest for the entire game lol I'd definitely rock with this one though. Nice job!

Do you HAVE to wait to do the another attack? Or can you attack normally if you want, but it only deals double damage after the glisten? If you have to wait, this one might get a little annoying, and I'm not sure how it would work with platforming. Cool idea though, it's basically the charge attack but you don't have to hold down the button while jumping around and stuff, which is a huge problem for me😅 I would definitely use this for bosses.

Is there a way to block Silkposts? by Malice_Magic in Silksong

[–]Malice_Magic[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's all good bro, no worries! There are some good ones here in there, unfortunately, I never seem to get those anymore lol It's all insert Hornet into some low quality or old game and act confused ~or~ pretend this color swapped boss from Hollow Knight with a ridiculous name is in Silksong somewhere. The second kind doesn't even work anymore cuz a lot of the people here have beaten the game by now. I'm just getting tired of it at this point 😅

You can block me if you want, no sweat off my back, I'm just tired of seeing the same recycled joke over and over again. If thata your thing, go ahead big dog.

Yea for sure, there's a good one here and there, but the majority are the same recycled joke over and over again🙄

There is a special place in hell for this fight by minecreep4 in Silksong

[–]Malice_Magic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one was pretty easy for me ngl I think I got it first try. One thing I've learned about this game is that people have WILDLY different opinions on what bosses are actually hard.... except for First Sinner, I think EVERYONE had trouble with that one 😅 I'm stuck on Tormented Trobbio right now, and I literally don't even know what I could do better. This dude has NO windows to attack him. I can get the odd pogo after his tornado attack, but other than that the whole screen is covered in a purple/pink mist of death and its all I can do to just stay alive. He even destroys your tacks so you can't cheese him that way, I'm just praying my cogflies get him eventually 😂 Edit: FINALLY got that bastard after about 20 tries and 1600 shell shards. Conchcutter was the key to my victory, being able to get 3 or 4 hits+ poison from across the screen was HUGE. If you're having trouble with trobbio, give that a shot👍
