Pale Court - All Bosses Hitless and Nail Only

A compilation of all the bosses in Pale Court fought on radiant difficulty and beaten nail only. I think the four overworld bosses have slightly more health on radiant difficulty so I redid them in Godhome. A great challenge and much fun.

ze’mer’s fight is so insane, that’s incredible

Especially Mystic Ze’mer! I need to get Hollow Knight on my computer(I have it on switch) and get this mod!

[@joaoluizkfsantos8392]

Mystic Ze'mer's fight is so cinematic, it looks extremely fun too

[@neonoah3353]

Everyone being very "hollow knight"-like, then theres ze'mer being fueled by the power of anime.

[@CrankyTemplar]

And Mystic Ze'mer has the power of God and anime on their side.

[@iwannagooutside9680]

I love how before Isma’s and Ze’mer’s fight (more like a duel now) you look down like you bow in return

[@KL53986]

Isma Orgim combo looks awesome, a pair boss

[@fink7968]

I was skeptical when the fight was spoiled a few months ago, didn't sound balanced but was very happy to be wrong, in my opinion it's probably the second best fight in the mod behind mystic.

[@XLToXiN]

What I love about this mod the most, is that all of these bosses feel like they should have already been there. They all have lore, you come across all of them in some way, and they all have a significant role in the hollownest. This is absolutely amazing! Even the music is brilliant and matched each of them. These modders need to be part of Team Cherry. Someone needs to write them a big ass check for bringing this masterpiece.

[@TobiasSaibot87]

I definitely think team cherry could have added them 5 as addition bosses along wit an explanation of PK's death

[@alsartsavience3512]

In fact, Dryya was initially meant to be an actual boss in the game, before that was scrapped.

[@deadnoobie2859]

While the makers are clearly talented, that is like saying an author should have to pay fanfic writers if the fanfic they write is good. That is silly.

[@EmmanQuinones5234]

​@@deadnoobie2859That's not what they're saying bro. They're just saying that the team behind this was so good at their jobs that they defo should get payed and heck, even be a part of Team Cherry in some way or other because that's how great the product they delivered was. I know it's just an analogy but it's a bad analogy bro.

[@jeremyrossi2716]

I love how you can get a glimpse of some of the characters history and lore from their boss fights if you look deep enough: -Isma is a fighter that tries to control an area as much as possible which is a great compliment to Ogrim since he focuses his might on grounded attacks. -Ze’mer incorporates some moves similar to The Mantis Lords and Traitor Lord likely because she has experience with Mantis culture and fighting styles because her girlfriend was Traitor Lord’s daughter. -Dryya is quick and agile and often comes in at an angle; which is the best way to fight off mantises which we know she died doing to protect the White Lady -Hegemol is brash and powerful; which one him many battles. Though he is quite slow and predictable making him a target for the maggots who killed him and stole his armor to defend themselves. -Tiso’s constant assortment of what I like to call “random bullsh*t go!” is likely how he got so far in the Coliseum of Fools as such tactics would thrive in such a frantic environment (except in close quarters with a Brooding Mawlek) I might just be reading too much into the designs of their attacks and the lore of each character; but I like to think that level of detail was put in, and if it was the creator of the mod did a fantastic job-in both making entertaining bosses-and in communicating a story with every boss fight.

[@zigsynx5364]

Good analogy. However, didn’t the maggots kill Hegemol during his sleep? He wasn’t defeated because he was too weak, rather he was caught off guard in slumber.

[@nate_orious0002]

I don’t believe Hegemol was killed at all to be honest. I think his fate was left up to interpretation and his death is only a leading theory, not a fact.

[@jeremyrossi2716]

@@zigsynx5364 that is true; but the fact that he’s so slow and lumbering is how the Maggots were able to track him and kill him.

I don't understand why Ze'mer did not challenge the Absolute Radiance directly. She could have saved the kingdom easily.
