I just did my first ever attempt at the first Pantheon last night and imagine my horror when I saw Oro and Mato as the final boss...

[@RelyeaGaming]

Lol right?!? They are tough. Go into the hall of gods below the pantheons and fight them over and over until your ready

[@jaybabe7767]

I just tried it about 30 min ago and was fine up until them I killed the first one no issue but when they both started I just had no idea of there patterns I was abel to pogo for awhile on there heads but they jump everyonce in a while so idk I will have to go try them in the hall of gods but idk if you have to beat them first or not to practise them there because i can't practice nightmare grimm but i have fought him I just haven't beaten him.

[@jameshoward4216]

Is it weird that it took me like 20 attempts to beat pantheon of the master while it only took me two attempts to beat pantheon of the artist. I think it took me so long to beat the first is because of that stupid brooding mawlek!

For anyone wondering you can stand between oro and mato its very risky but when they use the double sword attack at the same time dash through them and you can heal, if you don't need to heal use the ground slam attack again its risky

[@RelyeaGaming]

Good call

[@keithklassen5320]

I cannot agree more; being between the two of them is almost vital IMHO. That's the only way to get behind one of them, and when you're behind one of them you can just whack away for ages until he turns around, then Descending Dark as they both slash at you, and dash thru one of them after you land. Lots of extra damage, not a lot of risk when you get the timing right.

[@bakrobertjohnston4889]

I beat oro with sheer luck and then the second one appeared

[@RelyeaGaming]

Ohh no

[@brianharvey2847]

Here's a tip. When he slashes dash back, when he jump slashes dash towards him so you can get some hits off, and when he does the nail art do teh same thing you do with hornet, soul warrior, broken vessel, and every other boss with a dash. Just jump over him. When Mato shows up do the same thing but better. (When Mato does his nail art do the same thing for the jump slash considering it basically is the jump slash)

I have little trouble with the rest of this pantheon, but I always die in the fight with Oro and Mato. Sure, you can time to dodge their Dash Slash and Cyclone Slash, but the normal attacks were what got me. They have such a long reach with their nail that it’s often impossible to dodge out of their way.

[@Dark_Phoenix-si5sw]

So I’m fairly new to hollow knight (only got like 50 hours in the game) and I was amazed when I got to Oro and Mato first try, but had the wrongs charms, I had like wayward compass (which I think helped a lot tbh) and the geo catcher thing. This tutorial rly helped for both charm wise and the Oro and Mato attack patterns

Hey Relyea - I only started playing HK a few months ago. Hollow Knight is the best game I've ever played (I played Metroid 2 when it first came out on original GameBoy, been a metroidvania fan ever since). I got to 91%, before I needed some help online. There's a few people out there covering Hollow Knight, but you've got the best content by far. Used your content A LOT to get up to 108% now, with only the Pantheons left it seems.. Nightmare Grim and Trial of the Fool were tough, and Path of Pain was even tougher, but somehow the most fun!! Perhaps it's because it's just so rewarding, and there's zero chance involved, it's just you and the platforms. Anyway, just wanted to give you a long winded shout out as I've watched a bunch of your content, how to find stuff I'd missed, charms etc. and some tips for those bosses that on a first encounter you go 'WTF???'. Love your work, thanks a lot.

Tips that i found as i played and watched people: Either VS or Shriek Vengefly King when it is stationary If you have quick slash, pure nail and fragile/unbreakable strength you can spam on false knight and basically perma stagger (same case for mossy boi as told in vid) On Hornet after stagger you can Shriek since she almost always jump Keep attacking Dung Defender when he throws the dung balls Mark of Pride helps and Descending Dark Dung Defender to get him out and stagger him for a bit and if you do it right you can kill him quickly On soul warrior you can pogo as he dashes and slash as he falls to get extra hits (mark of pride recommended) For mawlek, if you have quick slash you can spam and hopefully parry every slash it does, when it “rains” just s-dash through it and repeat At Oro and Mato fight try to use DD for the invulnerability frames (found this useful for bosses like zote before ceiling fall) Note that these are what I found useful so it may not work for you but feel free to try My main build: Mark of Pride, Quick Slash, Unbreakable Strength, and maybe heart

[@RelyeaGaming]

[@carterdelaney4648]

And extra tip for everyone struggling on the final boss, just dash in, get a hit, and dash out. It's a whole lot safer, and you almost never get hit. Also, I feel like I should really just emphasize that standing your ground when there are 2 of them is super important. If they corner you, just dash over/through them to the other side to keep space for yourself.

[@Malluc]

I actually have a godly easy strategy for Mawlek. I charge nail arts the whole time, and when he does the big spit, I shade cloak through it (yes I stay on the side it lands on) and slash dash. When he jumps, dash to avoid it, then cyclone slash from the lower area when he lands back in the middle. During the Cyclone slash I do move away from him since the range of the nail art is longer than his swipe.

[@seasonsarecool]

For hornet, I'd suggest *V E N G E F U L S P I R I T* literally, use it as much as possible on her. use it during her aoe attack, use it when she jumps at you, just use it so much.

[@michaelpagac7631]

The charm build that finally got me through the Pantheons was: Quick Focus, Deep Focus, Shape of Unn, Grubsong and Spore Shroom (just for good measure). All that leaves so much margin for error like you wouldn't believe. Felt like cheating at times.

[@AvrgJack]

If you have trouble with a boss just go into the hall of gods and practice the boss solo with the charm setup you use for the pantheon, you’ll will eventually get better at the boss and then yoo xan go back and beat it easily, unless its the brooding mawlek, Nothing can prepare you for its stupidity

Thanks for your help! I keep getting stuck on Mawlek and Nailmasters

[@Eidel_Rose]

My first try on trying Pantheon of the master, I got stuck on Mawlek, and I still am.

[@Kimii_]

It's so cool how I just spedran the bosses until I died to Oro and Mato...

[@moraelity]

I just did this for the first time and I was very surprised I did it first try

[@PenPineappleApplePen007]

Great tips for charns. I changed to this setup half-way and beat them all. Time spent was 11:40.

[@duckielove2286]

I got to oro and Mato today. Died once they were both on the field. Brooding mawlek for me was tough so I used sharp shadow that helped me get passed him. I died to him the first time.

[@corvidox]

If you pause at 9:13 at the right time one of them has a speck of dust lined up perfectly as a mouth

[@sniper712]

While Oro and mato aren’t an issue for me I find it tough to control the fight most of the time. I got so lucky first time beating them with only one mask left. Had less problems no hit Grimm. I think it’s a mental thing that freaks me out and some of the rng with them

[@Mr.CementLollipop]

My healing spots - Vengefly king - everytime after pogoing him when he swoops down Gruz mother - while she's doing the stomping tantrum False knight - when he's stunned MMC - rarely need it, but everytime he goes underground is good spot for healing. Hornet - when she's stunned or doing the AOE attack Gorb - when I feel like I'm in the open space between his spike barrage DD - he goes underground, I desolate dive and when he's stunned I clutch a heal Soul warrior - doesn't have many heal opportunities, but when he's dashing but I feel like he's too far to reach me, I heal Mawlek - when he jumps or spits barrage, I go to other side and heal Brothers Oro and Mato - press heal bottom and pray to the God that they don't attack while I'm healing

[@marsmorg]

this is easily my favorite game of all time but i'm doing my first ACTUAL completion save after owning the game for a few years and tell me why when i tried this pantheon for the first time earlier today, i had no idea what the bindings meant so i chose all of them😭 i made it to gorb and instead of being patient or strategic, i tried to repeatedly hit him as quickly as possible so that's on me. it's been a second since i fought him so i'm going to practice in the hall of gods but i have faith i can beat him without all of the bindings lol.

[@thebruh1883]

Everybody in the comments is talking about how hard the brooding mawlek is. I hate fighting him too, but instead of avoiding him or timing my or his attacks I just rush at him immediately and never stop attacking him while tanking the damage he deals out of hatred. Unbreakable strength works wonders.

[@blackwraith3956]

When false knight knocked down use your cyclone slash it deals a lot of damage

[@RelyeaGaming]

False knight has to go through three phases. I don’t think you can skip a phase just because you did enough damage

[@Tbax9]

For the Brooding Mawlek, I usually Shade Cloak or (even better) use Desolate Dive to avoid his large wave attack. I find it a lot easier to dodge his attacks from one side than swapping between both. The safest time to heal is right after he jumps back to his original location after jumping at you, or right after shade cloaking through his acid wave. It's kind of unlikely but possible that he'll jump at you right after the acid wave or do his jump attack twice in a row, but you can usually get 2 heals off unpunished.

[@asharanees7818]

If you are stuck on the soul warrior fight think of him as a budget cut mantis lord

[@lix1279]

I had the first 3 pantheons unlocked the first time I came here, and I didn’t even mean to lok

[@Awiboos2]

i'm backed into a corner with oro and mato staring at eachother... uhm...

[@drkspnova]

oro and mato were the only ones who put up a fight

[@anamap]

When Hornet does her aoe attack I prepare a nail art using nailmaster's glory and get a good smack in.

[@goldencookie5456]

I just did my fourth attempt all sealed and I barely got past Oro but died when fighting Oro and Mato. I did not expect Mato to show up. Beating Oro was hard enough already. I'm gonna try doing it without the seals so I can practice Oro and Mato's attack patterns and then quit when I'm about to win so I can do it with the seals.
