Hi can I have some advice when it comes to beating the traitor lord. For reforance I have all charms except for the one you get after beating the traitor lord. I also have all nail upgrades and nearly all mask shards, all vesal fragments as well. I am not very good at dauging or timing things. Do you know of a possible charm build or stragity I could use agenst the traitor lord. Sorry for any bad grammar or spelling.

@@insanegaming613 well, when he does the jump-diagonal-slam attack, you can just walk under him, and avoid all damage. When he does his forward dash, your safest bet would be to shade cloak through it, although it is possible to jump over. His slam-shockwave attack can ONLY be shade cloaked, and his attack timing will usually give you the chance to do so. A charm I recommend would be quick charge, for obvious reasons, and shape of unn, because you can crawl underneath his jump-diagonal-slam attack, which gives you a healing window if you time it right. Other than that, I just recommend getting used to the quick movement and double damage, because it is a common theme in the endgame.

Also new players should try the path of pain to get a nice and easy start to the game

I'd like to add 'be patient' to the list. If your ass is being handed to you on a silver platter, calm down, observe where the next attack is coming from and act accordingly. Make sure you can dodge properly before dealing damage to the boss because in a slugfest where you trade hit for hit, you almost always lose. Most bosses will come to you, trying to beat you to a pulp themselves and that is when you strike, just make sure you dodge as well.

Learning to just casually step out of the way in order to dodge an attack is definitely vital. It's not even about precise movement; you just get much much better insight in how to defeat a boss if your own movement isn't too erratic, and you don't want to need to worry about attacks that aren't anywhere near you. The further away you move from one attack, the more likely it becomes that you get hit by another you weren't even really looking at.

one thing on charms: dont get hung up on sticking to that one "perfect" build. some combos are super situational or require a very specific playstyle, but acan be devastating. case in point: defenders crest + spore shroom + shape of unn + deep focus + grubsong + starward shell. your primary attack is the HUGE cloud of stench you release while healing 2 masks of damage. augmented by facetanking damage for free gas, staying mobile while healing, and the fact that the invinciblity after a hit pasts longer, that it takes you to focus again. PS: the AoD cloud lingers 4.1s, doing propably 70 damage in total. and the clouds stack!

8:00 if you're someone who enjoys projectiles but doesn't enjoy spell builds, may I recommend the following (very late game charm build only really good for the pantheons) Grubberfly charm build: Quick slash, Longnail/Sharp Shadow, Grubberfly's Elegy, Lifeblood Core. The Grubberfly charm isn't deactivated by taking damage with Lifeblood masks, so the core can give you access to three points of damage in leeway before you reach the next cocoon or bench. (In the case of the pantheons, both! You could start each checkpoint with at least 5 masks of leeway early on with no repercussions. I personally dont have the 11th notch, so I use Lifeblood heart. It works equally well though!) Long story short this charm build turns you into Megaman for 2-3 hits before you can't take any more damage or risk having to focus, while still giving you some non Grubberfly utility after the fact with either sharp shadow to dodge more stuff reliably with shade cloak, or longnail to revert to a slightly weaker nail charm build.

Finally a use for lifeblood charms other than the hiveblood combo

My tip: Never underestimate the utility of nail arts. While it is mid game the great slash is one of the most addictive and useful moves in the knight’s arsenal which gives a 2.5x damage hit, has the length of MoP and two long nails, and keeps you in air. The cyclone slash while often forgotten deals up to .75 hits 7 times (x5.25 ndmg)a massive amount able to kill all basic colosseum enemies that the great slash can’t deal with on top of having the length of one long nail. Mashing swaps fast fall to slow fall, increases deploy time and hence more attacks. Dash slash is honestly kinda garbage other than basic but narrow spacing (x2.5 ndmg) Nail Master Glory will double the speed of recharge for the cost of only one charm notch. Cons: You can’t dash during an attack You can’t cancel an attack Dash slash exists Shields counter it excluding markoth resets after a spell *Can’t pogo during charge or animation* Strength does not apply to nail arts Pros Destroys most flying enemies in one great slash Is useful for half of the bosses Counters markoth and radiance Out reaches sly’s phase 2 attack Is only 800 geo for all of the needed things NMG is cheap Colosseum becomes a joke Helps with teleporting enemies like soul tyrant, markoth, no eyes, NKG, and Hornet Prot Slows down time with great slash Is super flashy Using an art resets aerial moves It pairs well with the passive build as it is cheap and lets you deal consistent 52.5 damage bursts while your minions cover for you. Edit if you crystal dash through a loading zone then charge a nail art there is a small visual glitch that shows a ring

@MerlinCross13

"Dash Slash is honestly kinda Garbage" I mean, I can't even make it work. Can't get the timing down My own thoughts on the Arts; Great Slash + Spell for quick burst. Cyclone Slash if you can get several hits in or need to charge soul fast. Dash Slash in the dumpster, pick up that damage dash charm.

@coffeecup1196

3 жыл бұрын

Dash slash is actually very useful in the right situations. It lets you focus on dodging the random aerial bs a lot of bosses throw at you while still doing excellent damage per opening. For example, when fighting Paintmaster Sheo, it can be hard to land a great slash with all of his dodging. However, dash slash + nailmaster's glory recharges almost perfectly in time to his attacks and you can get in to do the damage before he backs up. It does the same amount of damage as great slash iirc, has a much larger range, and has getting closer to the enemy built-in. It's also good for hitting Markoth behind his shield, killing those explosive bats before they even see you, dashing through Grimm's bat attack (either version), and several other situations. Honestly, I consider dash slash and great slash to be pretty much the same move, with the difference being whether the enemy is close or far from you when an opening appears.

@@coffeecup1196 Look, I'm glad someone has found use for it but as I said, I can't seem to pull the tech off. releasing the slash during a dash(As the game seems to ask of you) mearly ends with me doing a great slash after I'm done dashing. So yes, I'm probably scrub but a skill I can't really pull off is going to be rated lower in my personal opinion vs a Charm that does the same thing automatically it seems.

Hey, I came from 2 years later. Silksong is still not out. Bye.

While I didn't actually sequence break, I definitely gathered a few items out of the normal order. After getting dash, wall jump, and super dash, I skipped desolate dive and the soul sanctum completely and went straight for the acid ability to nullify acid damage. This means that I visited the royal waterways much earlier than most people probably attempted this area. Then I went back to the soul sanctum, and afterwards I got double jump to explore almost every area that I could. Exploration is more fun for me than boss fights, so I preferred this aspect.

This will be very helpful seeing as I’m planning to 112% this game.

I just discovered your channel and wondered when will your next upload will be and here i am. Thanks!

One of the many things that I have gotten better at over the years is my strategy against the big shield enemies in the city of tears. It went from hitting them after a double swing, to constantly jumping over them getting one attack on their head or back, to hitting their shield and then pogoing twice on their head and then getting a third swing in their face while falling and then hitting the shield again right as I land then repeating.

0:27 "What will likey be your next new obsession" Crap, your right.

Love the video. I picked the game up for PS+ and was totally not expecting such an amazing game. Almost wrote it off in the beginning and now i cant get enough.

After some great hours of gaming, I finally bested the PoH and "Platined" the game. One of the best games from PS Plus that I ever got. Love those souls/hollow knight kinds of games, hope we get more of them in the future. The Surge was a good time too. I can totally see why you guys are obsessed with this game for 3 years now lol

Your videos are powering me through this game.

A helpful thing I like to do whenever I start a new save file is get an early completed mask shard without even touching Greenpath (especially if I'm playing a Steelsoul run). You're able to get 5 grubs throughout the crossroads by either normal means or pogo'ing (which prompts the Grubfather to give you a mask shard), you can pogo off of a flying enemy to get the shard sitting in the area above where you either need wall jump or double jump to get to, you can get to the brooding mawlek fight early by pogo'ing off the spikes (which rewards a mask shard) and then finally you just buy the last one from Sly.

I have no words to describe this game. As soon as I saw that it was free on PSN I was interested, but I had no idea how much I was going to fall in love with this game. I completed it in a week, I have 60 hours and 105%, I intend to platinum but King of the nightmare Grim is driving me crazy, besides I haven't even started the pantheons yet. Rusty, I love your videos and I always use them if I need any tips, thanks for the content.

My go-to (non-overcharm) build is Unbreakable Strength, Quick Slash, Spell Twister, and Shaman Stone. When I am overcharming, I usually forgo either Unbreakable Strength or Quick Slash and replace them with a 2-notch charm or two 1-notch charms, then use Soul Eater.

Quirell really be like: ah, me know this!

I got the game on ps+ last week and already have 37 hours on the game and trying to kill the radiance. You’ve been a major help over my time. Thank you Rusty

Weaversong, grubsong, glowing womb, quick focus and sporeshroom.

Yay! New Rusty vid! Ima go hunker down with the compendium of number values of damage and compile even more useless info on this game... because I'm insane.

im a big fan of the math thing. i always calculate how many hits a boss needs, how many staggers (helps you gage how far I got if I kept failing) and how many hits after the last stagger to kill it. sometimes i literally count my hits lol it also helps if you want to decide to fight a boss before or after a nail upgrade. some increase in health as you upgrade your nail but depending on the increase it might actually require significantly less hits.

Thank you I didn’t know it was free I almost missed

Got the game through ps plus. Evolved into my all time favourite.

Adnanced tips "just step away" Thx a lot

I put the game in the library when it was available without knowing anything about it and started playing it a month ago. Totally addicted, it was hard, challenging and full of surprises and decisions. A masterpiece. Now the sad note. I'm in the trial of sage and I can't progress despite having everything. I don't get how it seems like a lot of people just destroys some bosses that I so struggle with. I can't tell how sad it makes me feel to think this: being 38 and feeling like my reflexes are starting to be not good enough. I want that platinum trophy so bad.

I got this game free on ps earlier this month and Just beat the hollow knight 19ish hours into the game, now I’m trying to 100% it. This game is seriously amazing, never expected it to be as long and have as much depth as it does.

I’ve already spent over 30 hours on my first run- but it’s definitely building my overall skill 😂

Rusty to support your tips can you maybe do a boss rush or something

I got hollowknight on ps plus but when you said we will get it I thought you meant silksong came out too and my heart dropped

Despite only getting it with ps plus I've already clocked in 50 hours and 96 percent. And I can confirm the first tip video that I watched near the start of my game really helped.

My charm build for just going around: Gathering Swarm Dashmaster Sprintmaster Grubsong Steady Body Thorns of Agony Sharp Shadow Dream Wielder (and Nailmaster's Glory but I don't have the charm notch from Grimm.) It's fast and relaxing.

I play damage/survivability: Unbreakable Heart, Unbreakable Strength, Quick focus, Grubsong, Soul Catcher (Quick focus with Grubsong and Soul catcher means that when you find a healing window, you almost always have soul to heal) Also: USE DESCENDING DARK/DESOLATE DIVE. PLEASE. THE I FRAMES YOU GET ARE RIDICULOUS.

tip: *use unbreakable strength*

If you're using sharp shadow, use dash master too. It's the unbreakable strength to sharp shadow.

Now add Quickslash and you’ve won the game

this game is fucking brilliant , only just started playing couple weeks ago and i’m hooked

Got it the day it came out on ps+. What a great game 50h on it already. I’m just missing the last 2 pantheons for the platinum.

these charm combos are more late game streight dmg combos. but actually for beginners going for other charms is often better vs ennemies that are hard to approachgoing full summoner with the flies, the spiders and soul generation and just playing safe can help a lot

My favorite build is Quick Focus, Long Nail,Quick slash and Soul Catcher. Called it the Battlemage.

I have a weaver song grub song for soul, then quick focus strength and some other charm for my build, so I’m very heal and nail based

0:22 you're goddamn right. I want more now.
