The Best Character in Hollow Knight

[@Akai93]

"Not under leveled or anything but just under skilled" I appreciate the honesty here lol. It's definitely not an easy fight. Also I agree Grimm is the best and he only gets better, can't wait to see you continue his dlc

[@KillerWolf1324]

Grimm maybe but NKG not as great

That's what I love about this game

[@Akai93]

@@KillerWolf1324 NKG is easily the boss I spent the most time on but he's also my absolute favorite

[@amjthe_paleosquare9399]

I absolutely love that after the one mimic he lost his entire faith in grubs XD

[@arcaneTempest1]

it is very much implied later in the game that by absorbing them into the dream nail you are basically erasing them from existence.

[@collinbeal]

It's kinda like banishing souls to the Soul Cairn in Skyrim. They are trapped inside your blade 🤯👍

[@LoganHazzard-gj1wc]

So little bit abt hollow knight 1. Congrats u beat 12/47 hollow knight bosses 2. There are 3 bosses in dirtmouth 3. U haven’t found 8 areas yet 4. 2 can be accessed from city of tears 4b. One from kings station all u gotta do is go swimming 5. Save Bretta u monster 6. There might be something interesting in junk pit 7. There are more annoying bosses then enraged guardian

[@therealyojames]

15:53 youre supposed to crystal dash off the wall :D

[@GullBox]

After seeing your struggle with the Crystal Guardian I already know this will be a blast! 😂

[@casquelotejr8819]

4:53 If you spam your attack button during the cyclone slash you will spin for longer, hitting the enemies around you more times, doing this also makes you fall slower which can be useful when using it on an airborne enemy. Good luck! :)

[@bug-deal]

or whatever your attack button is

[@casquelotejr8819]

@@bug-deal oh yeah good point!

[@coderaven1107]

Ok, I didnt know this :D Ty for sharing

[@Thea-Time-13th]

Also, the fall speed is not capped while not mashing buttons during cyclone Slash, so you can also use CS to fall incredibly quickly

[@HeavensBane53]

Just fyi, you can extend cyclone slash's duration by repeatedly hitting the attack button during it. A full duration cyclone is a bit of a commitment but it does a LOT of damage. Also it's left purposefully ambiguous whether dreamnailing ghosts is a good or bad thing, so feel free to interpret it however you like.

[@the_godbodor7026]

Agreed, Grimm is the best character in this game and you haven't even done his boss fights yet. The aesthetic of the Troupe, Grimm's voice and design, and the fights you have yet to experience make the troupe one of my absolute favorite parts of Hollow Knight. Also the crossroads change to the Infected Crossroads once you "kill" your first Dreamer as by doing so the seal on the Black Egg Temple is weakened allowing more infection to break out, infecting the Crossroads where it resides.

[@maxmedranosoy]

I love the voices he does for each character

[@GodSlayer683]

U should get the elegant key. It will give upgrade to one of your spells. It's roughly located in soul sanctum.

[@r3d040]

Even as a speedrunner, infected crossroads is my worst enemy. I despise the explosions.. Also, the struggle to find Failed Champion is such a mood...it took me so long to find it on my first ever run

[@catmug3334]

Same, infected crossroads can be so annoying! (Btw I’m not a speed runner just a hk player who has beaten a couple of the hard bosses, like grim, and radience)

[@r3d040]

@@catmug3334 Yeah, I didn't do flower quest until I had infected crossroads on my first run and uh...lets just say that was not a fun experience (hours. It took me hours to finish)

[@collinbeal]

​@@r3d040idk how to break this to you, but as long as you don't bench, larger mobs don't respawn, so you can just pre-clear your path of the harder enemies and then take the flower...

Grimm my beloved waifu

[@unkilledxd5417]

15:06 Bro you made that harder than it is supposed to be you forgot you had the super dash that can still be done/used on the wall instead of pogoing on the enemies, but at least you beat it.

[@STNDD]

I love how he's permanently scared of mimics every time he frees a grub 😅 Also you are just absorbing the ghosts into your nail, don't feel bad

[@witch6993]

OMG, YOU FOUND MY FAV GUY IN THE WHOLE GAME PLS DONT SEND THE TROUPE BACK PLEASE also, for the watcher knights, you can go above the room there is a secret path right above the elevator and drop the chandelier the one of them to kill it before the fight. and yes forgotten crossroads is now infected crossroads cuz you beat the broken vessel.

[@lil_starshooter]

Cool you found Grimm! Congrats on that :D (Now I look forward to how you'll go about with that, hehe ...) And oh my, yeah good luck with Watcher Knights. Here's a tip for if it gets too hard: There is a chandelier you can drop on one of the Watcher Knights so that you have one less Knight to worry about. Just climb up the wall that's before entering the arena. There's a breakable wall that leads to the ropes of the Chandelier. Good luck! ❤

Spoliers for the beside the Grimm Tent, smaller one. . . . . . . . . . The worm will eat your fragile charm that you buy from the leg eater (fungle...land?) and will need MORE GEO to buy it back for became the unbreakable charm it will be useful like the unbreakable strengh (nail dmg+) but need three slots and prepare more than 15000 geo to buy it back so DO NOT send them back to dream (destroy the thing from the start, and they will never come back) if you haven't upgraded all fragle charms to unbreakable charms

@@orca9281 you really should I just finished playing Xenoblade 3. Great series. Just remember to regularly save in Xeno2 and close the game and open it again every 3 hours or so.

Tip: if u equip the steady body charm, cyclone slash jf u mash the atk button after using it u can slowly move towards a grounded enemy, it does more damage than great slash but great slash is easier to hit airborn enemies after using a dash
