Wyndlerunner he/him Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 Given that I've noticed at least a few other Hollow Knight fans on these here forums, I figured I'd make a topic to discuss all aspects of this game, and the upcoming sequel Hollow Knight: Silksong. Also memes- memes are very welcome. So discuss away! And remember- Keep calm and @Jaywalk @Truthless of Shinovar I know you 2 at least play this game, so feel free to discuss away! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaywalk he/him Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 The Watcher Knights are stupid and I hate them and they’re really hard and oh WHYYYYYYY CAN I NOT BEAT THEM UGGGGGGG. So, yeah. Those are my thoughts at this point in time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I hated the Crystal Guardian boss fight (Don't even get me started on Enraged Guardian) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Favorite boss fight? Mine has to be Hornet(the third time). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyndlerunner he/him Posted July 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 So, I just beat the Watcher Knights, and figured I'd share my strategy: Shade Cloak+ Sharp Shadow (Charm, 2 notches). You can acquire the Shade Cloak in the Abyss (accessible after obtaining The King's Brand), and complete a platforming section to obtain the charm. (Allows your shadow dash to deal the damage of your nail when you dash through enemies) Quick Focus Charm (Heals faster, good for obvious reasons) Grubsong Charm (Gets you Soul for getting hit, makes it easier to heal if you're playing it defensive) Thorns of Agony Charm (Deals 2x your nail's damage to enemies upon getting hit if within range) There's also a hidden area above the arena where you Mantis Claw just before the arena entrance. If you break a rope-ish thing here, a Chandelier will crush one of the Watcher Knights, so you only have to deal with 5. If anyone's got any tips for dealing with Traitor Lord, please let me know! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaTerminal he/him Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 I am glad this thread now exists, and I am looking forward to Silksong. The demo footage looks amazing.

Whaaaat, nooo... but if I did play it, the Sisters of Battle In Godhome would be my favorite boss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truthless of Shinovar he/him Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 Honestly, Spoiler Just exploring! I’ve got a lot left that I need to check out, and I’m definitely going for completion, not just beating the game as quick as I can. I’ve killed the two dreamers, Beast and what’s-it’s-face, and I just have Monomon to kill, before something happens, I’m just not for sure what. Until then, there’s a whole cave/world to explore! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truthless of Shinovar he/him Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 Hmmm... I just got the what’s-her-face’s blessing, the one that Spoiler gives you a bunch of blue hearts. I’m conflicted on whtether I should use it or not, what do you guys use it for? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, Joni's Blessing is a charm that increases your health by 50%, but, as a trade off, because its all Lifeblood, you can't heal any of it. So it's generally only useful for bosses where you don't want to concern yourself with healing, rather just attempting to outlast them. I personally think its a bit of a risky strategy, and therefore I don't use it. But it's all up to you, good fellow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
