I did a 100% steel soul run a while back and thought of a few other tips! 1. It's possible to get 4 mask shards before getting into Greenpath (yes even without battling Brooding Mawlek.) Save the 5 grubs by down pogoing from Vengflies or spikes. Buy 2 from Sly. And finally the one near the hot springs which you can access by down pogoing a Vengefly after luring it to the left. 2. For Mantis Lords there's a breakable wall with a lifeblood cocoon just above the entrance to Deepnest you can get before the fight. 3. Save fighting Watcher Knights until you have enough upgrades (This one was tough for me lol.) 4. Buy Quick Focus (it's just a great charm imo)

Here is a good tip. Before entering a boss, set yourself a dreamgate and then head for the closest stag station to get to Greenpath. Once there, you can head on up and over to the right to get the lifeblood masks. If you'd like to, head on back to Dirtmouth and go back towards King's Pass to get the other lifeblood masks. Be sure to have your charms set before you collect your lifeblood masks. Dreamwarp back to your Dreamgate with your extra set of masks and you are more than prepared to fight the boss.

I want to stress and iterate upon point #3 and a few tips for point #4. For upgrades, I want to stress the importance of getting your ideal charm loadout up as soon as possible since your charm build heavily influences how you fight most of the bosses, especially the late-game bosses. This ties into planning your route: your ideal charm loadout should be pathed into your run as early as possible, as long as you're comfortable doing the sections these charms appear in (ie don't go for Weaversong without Lumafly Lantern if you're not comfortable doing dark Deepnest, or attempt an early Quick Slash if you're not comfortable fighting Great Hoppers). That's my first routing tip: route your ideal charm loadout to complete your build as early as possible. My second routing tip is to take the Crossroads entrance into Fungal Wastes. You skip a lot of the platforming sections there, can quickly stop by Salubra to get Shaman Stone (or if you're like me you pick up Longnail), you can save Sly for his wares, can stop by Leg Eater for fragile charms, can fight Shrumal Ogres quickly for a charm notch, and (most importantly) you can skip most of the platforming sections by opening up the shortcuts since most of them open up from the right side of Wastes. The trip there after Hornet is also very easy because the Greenpath Stagg is right underneath Hornet's boss chamber. My final routing tip is to wait until the end game to do Queen's Gardens specifically. Queen's Gardens has some of the hardest platforming sections in the game and some of the hardest non-boss, non-Colosseum forced encounters in the game. Even Deepnest is easier to go through if you have Lantern.

Tip: You can actually get 4 mask shards in Crossroads without fighting Mawlek. There’s a room where another Vengefly skip can get you to a mask shard just lying past a parkour area with the unkillable timed monster things (forgot what they’re called). It seems like you gotta get the Vengefly past 3 of those things, but you can actually just attract it’s attention then hit the spikes nearby, which take you to the beginning of the room, and if you continuously jump it’ll likely track you down while staying above death.

Yup! Did this on my last playthrough. I got lucky and lured it past the goams first try, but it's all about timing and being 1 spot ahead of the vengefly so the goam goes back down before killing it

If anyone is planning to do Pantheon 5 on steel soul, just don’t do grey prince zote. For some reason GPZ is the one boss that’s totally optional for godhome and P5, you don’t need to kill him to unlock P1/2/3/4 and if you don’t kill him in the base game he just just NOT APPEAR AT ALL in P5. Considering GPZ is the most unreadable boss in the whole game, and most players are extremely prone to damage (of 2 masks btw, we love dream fights), being able to skip GPZ between failed champ and NKG in the final end of pantheon 5 is MASSIVE.

Bonus tip: If you feel like you're about to die, save and quit. When you load back up, you'll be at the last bench you sat on with no progress lost... Then go re-attempt whatever boss you saved and quit from, or go prepare better in some other way. I have NEVER beaten a pantheon. Any of them. When I completed Steel Soul 100%, I saved and quit right before bosses killed me probably four times.

I feel that’s cheating. Everybody has their own views on this but I think that is without a doubt cheating. I don’t even think you should be able to load up practice run save files. Once u start a steel soul run, you should only be able to play that run. Practice beforehand.

Tips (not following some of those actually costed me the 100% 20h steel soul speedrun): No one told you to get Voidheart and get the true ending. No one. Hell, no one even said anything about Kingsoul. If you are in need of percentages, fight the easy warrior graves, buy charms, get upgrades, and specially get the 2% awaiting in The Hive, the 3% of the Grimm Troupe, and if in need to, the free 1% of the Godtuner. How to get there without fighting the Pale Lurker? Easy: do not open the Waterways entrance and get all the other upgrades you can before Isma's Tear. There is another entrance. Do not waste the Simple Key there.

@crazymonkeygaming22294 жыл бұрын
@@RockyLXXXVIII Sisters of Battle can be tough on radiant mode. But I can give some easy tips that you've probably heard already, but these tips are good to remember when going into this fight. 1. Use descending dark as much as possible because of the Invincibility frames that you get out of it, but do not spam it because you could be getting more damage out of it if you're using it accordingly. 2. I know that not everyone plays with the same charm set as the one that I use. But I find these two charms needed: Mark of Pride and Shaman stone. Then you can add other charms with these to help you. 3. PRACTICE, all bosses on radiant mode will make you practice them a lot. So be prepared to spend some time on the Hall of Gods. I personally spent around 30-ish hours trying to complete the entire Hall of Gods on radiant. Don't give up on a boss just because you want to do them fast, most of the time that will not happen. Unfortunately I can't write everything in a single KZbin comment, but you should also look up videos on "Sisters of Battle on radiant". Good luck on doing them on radiant.

Another Tip: If you're ever in a tight spot with only 1 Mask left, you can always just Quit to the Main Menu! Your progress is saved, so any door that was unlocked or Charm that was collected will remain that way. Although you'll go back to the last bench you sat at, which might be far away, but it's still better than starting from scratch! I cannot tell you how many times this has saved my Steel Soul run.

for people who worry about starting steel soul. if you find yourself in tough situation with 2 or 1 health shards - just quit to the menu and respawn at the bench. for a year i didn't try steel soul mode. bit knowing you could quit at any time, relax and come back mada me having fun with the game. used it once because didn't take seriously some regular enemies. just be aware of tour health at any point. with Team Cherry's attention to details i think they would close that loophole if they didn't want players to use it - with defeat at getting out of game without sitting on the bench or something. so i think it's all fare. nice video. good job. keep it up, i aprecieate your choice of background music in latest videos. and editing pretty tight too.
