Can we talk about how the Knight landed a killing blow on God Tamer's beast, then flashed the charm build, then came out of it just in time to *parry* the God Tamer's would-be lethal blow? The level of flex is ASTRONOMICAL.

[@sandiegovanilla8625]

I imagine the little bug dude thought it would be awesome if he secretly attacked and killed him when he was checking his charms but then immediately went on his knees and begged for mercy when the knight just destroyed him with the parry.

[@joethegreat7242]

The Knight even parries BACKWARD, that's how epic it is.

[@manueldoll8578]

I also like the additional flex of using the fragile charms, not the unbreakable ones

[@Poseidon-oz9pg]

The Charms used are: Quick Slash, Unbreakable Strength, Nailmasters Glory, Steady Body, Fury of the Fallen, and Shamans Stone, for anyone wondering.

How is the void heart not equipped. That's the real impressive part

[@kyokajiro1808]

using a mod you can instantly get all charms which gives you a false voidheart, it costs 5 notches, cannot be unequipped, and can exist without being equipped, it also gives carefree melody unless you specifically choose otherwise
