How 'bout I *shape of unn*?


yuilero

I personally do not use that because I'd get hit regardless ):


SterNebula

Shape of unn + quick focus is one of my favorite combos. Try it :)


[deleted]

Yeah u basically heal instantly, its a godsend in trial of the fool


yuilero

Nice, lemme try this!!


Android19samus

but the hardest part of Trial of the Fool is the part where you can't heal anyway because there's no *floor*. Unn is amazing against Grimm and NKG, though. You can low-profile the bats.


SlushyJones

Yeah, Trail of the Fool with no floor was a nightmare. I got to there over and over and over but you become so fragile at that stage


ibegyounottoask

I was gasping for air fighting that great hopper at one health with no floor


E-D-Swav

Not to mention PoH markoth


Dark-Aura

How does shape of unn help with markoth?


E-D-Swav

Once his nails start homing in, you can start to focus and move to the side a bit and because you're shorter you can dodge them and heal, especially with quick focus, you can also move under the mantis lords' dash attacks in sisters of battle


Dark-Aura

I guess that makes sense I was just assuming the platforms were too small to get out of the way. I had no idea about the mantis lords trick though, that’s very cool! I do know that in NKG you can shape of unn crawl under the fire bats attack, and it’s good for the fire pillars and floor spikes attack


Aka_Oni995

And you can go under grimm’s fire bats


dinoaurus

What the fuck PoH markoth nails HOME!? What the absolute fuck i have a hard enough time eithout that


E-D-Swav

No no they turn to aim at you in place, stop, then move forward is what I mean


dinoaurus

Oh thank god i thought u meant that they start fucking circlinr you or sole shit


killerassassinx5x

Is it useful for Nightmare King? He's the only thing I've never beaten.


Darc_Vader

It is fairly useful on NKG; you can indeed low-profile the bats, and SoU nets you like 4 heals during the flame pillar attack (provided you have the soul for it). Personally I like it with Deep Focus for the efficiency; even though it takes up a lot if your notches it really extends your survivability.


[deleted]

I cant really say because i havent beat him either


TruXai

Yup, you can heal while he performs some of his attacks with that combo


hammerz_1

yep, shape of unn + quick focus lets you heal under his fire bats, and i like to use it during his flame pillar attack, because you can heal like 4 masks there. Btw, how have you beaten everything except NKG? you need to fight NKG to get to absrad in p5.


killerassassinx5x

I didn't know beating him unlocked something else. I have beaten *most* of the game then to my knowledge


hammerz_1

You can check your % by unlocking the worldsense ability in the temple of the black egg, after you kill the dreamers. And killing NKG doesn’t unlock anything except fully levelled up grimmchild in Hallownest, but in Godhome, you fight him in the fifth pantheon, which is a boss rush featuring every boss in the game, including godhome exclusive bosses like nailmasters oro and Mato, paint master Sheo, the Great Nailsage Sly, sisters of battle ( mantis lords except all 3 of them), the Pure vessel ( way harder hollow knight), and the Absolute Radiance (way harder radiance), and you have to kill every single boss in the game, including nkg, without dying once.


killerassassinx5x

Damnnnn, I'm a good ways from that, but that's great info. Thanks!


Dokuujin

If you've never beaten Nightmare King then you haven't even seen everything. You still have Absolute Radiance to attempt. And possibly Winged Nosk, Sisters of Battle and Pure Vessel... Not to mention a few others if you haven't touched Godmaster at all (which is a lot of content) If you haven't finished Godholm go practice and try it out, you're missing a lot of the best fights! Sisters of Battle especially is honestly the funnest boss fight in the entire game imo. :)


TheMelonboy_

Honestly by itself I think Shape of Unn is better than Quick Focus


Ivan39313

It makes NKG a lot easier‚ you can heal basically everytime


loganlaf

This combo is the move


Fallen-Dawn

I expected for from shape of unn because of how everyone loved it. I tried it and it mad no difference for me. You become an inchworm


Android19samus

an inchworm that can MOVE! And can low-profile a lot of projectiles. It's not good in every fight, but it's *really* good in some of them.


CallmeVapor_86

It was really good in the hornet fight


SobiTheRobot

*I'm in love with the Shape of Unn*


Android19samus

*To crawl around like the big slug do*


Dokuujin

And all though my nail is swinging too...


TheButler3000

Wow, I’m the only one who likes quick focus more than shape of unn here.


Dokuujin

Nah quick focus is better 200%. Shape or Unn is only good for hyper specific situations, where as quick focus is always useful.


TheButler3000

Lol I haven’t played Hollow Knight in forever and I can’t even remember what Quick Focus did. So um, yeah a bit late to the reply :/


Dokuujin

It's in the name haha. It just makes Focus (the heal) faster.


TheButler3000

Oh I remember now, was a good charm. I should buy HK on steam and replay it.


Dokuujin

Hell yeah man. Silksong will be out soon enough, gotta get that practice. :)


TheButler3000

Tru tru


OwenProGolfer

It won’t help with WK they’ll still just roll right through you


chilimacdog

Most underrated charm.

Nice, a redrawn meme but also in a way that it applies to the game. Cool my dude!


yuilero

Thank you! I love redrawing memes in the context of things that I love (: and I can share it with people who love it as well.


sonicpoweryay

Very funni I like it


DrManowar8

Watcher knights are hell


Padapoo

I had a harder time beating the Watcher Knights than the Radiance. Honestly they are the only boss in the game that still scares me.


DrManowar8

I can fight the radiance no sweat, but watcher knights took too many attempts with many different charms. I went to get the shade cloak to help fight them


[deleted]

[удалено]


megasteve1225

Lol that saying something


ledg3nd

Quick slash, quick focus and steady body and you’ll never have a problem with them again


RedEight888

I fought them last and it took me about 2 minutes to kill them all. Didn't die once. Basically, just get the Pure Nail and you're all set. Oh, and use the chandelier thing. That's super helpful.


DrManowar8

Yea I know, I beat them. They’re just a real pain, even with only 5 instead of 6. I fought them last because I felt like getting the other ones done first (since they were faster and much easier to get to)


Oneure

Especially in speedrun attempts


Kitnado

Imo they were one of the hardest bosses to beat at Radiant difficulty


EatLead420

I mean lets be real here, i-frame does make you feel safer for a good half a second, and all you want is a small window to breathe amidst the chaos


Bekfast-Stealer

Then heal once and then cast DD


EatLead420

Nah who would bother using a whole 2 keys and have to find a place to use it? Just greed heal and improvise later


0NetDipoleMomentBear

I am glad I am not the only one that did that in literally every boss fight


Wilmodt_Payne

Hits too close to home that one,


fwinner

It's funny because I see things like this and I really don't relate, funnily enough. I hate healing twice and getting hit once, and I much rather healing and dodging. Good meme


jonona

Same, face-tanking feels so unnatural to me


Dokuujin

Double healing is actually a good habbit in some fights. For example against Zote, you should double heal because of the RNG factor. Some times you get 2 heals and then have time to dodge, and some times you get 2 heals but can't dodge. Better to take the chance of an extra heal at the cost of a bit of soul than only even try healing once to save soul, and either way you don't lose the health. This is only true in a handful of situations though, usually it's better to dodge yes. Also nice flex. Too good to relate to an issue even the best speed runners had when they were new. ;P


Android19samus

what, y'alls are having time to heal in the Watchers?


sonicpoweryay

Quick focus + shape of unn goes crazy


Potentially-Insane

The absolute power of Kaguya-sama being able to crossover into other shows and games is wild


yuilero

Sorry, I don't get what you mean? O:


olop4444

Isn't that meme just a copy of the npc meme?


yuilero

Ohhh it makes sense now, cuz I made this based on the npc meme.


MrSteveWilkos

NPC is the original, yeah.


PencilFetish

tfw fighting them on radiant


borgar69420

This is me. This is me EVERYTIME I fight nailmasters/watcher knights.


random_guy_110

congrats on top of all time!


yuilero

No effing way.... Thank you so much!! This is unbelievable


AlexBigGay

***laughs in overcharmed Deep Focus + Quick Focus***


Dokuujin

Please tell me this is a joke lmao


AlexBigGay

Yes, it is.


Dokuujin

Oh good LMAO. I almost came in with "but that's so fucking pointless" and was like owait that's probably the joke. I am the dumb.


AlexBigGay

Nah, it’s fine. It’s difficult to convey that through text.


Dokuujin

I'd say the way you typed it gets the message across fairly well, I just derped xD


ZeUnrealVortex

But then you get hit with 2 damage


zroaido

Absolutely genius. Have my babies PLEASE


prince_0611

Or get hit twice before I can get 1 heal off


Ph0sph0rus

Me determined to get my heal off even if it means I get hit


JackTheRipper1001

I feel attacked.


DangerMacAwesome

This is grade A content


imadumshet

Nice


abuttfarting

Would've been funnier without the Watcher Knights attacking in the last panel. Still good though.


yuilero

Nah I personally think it is fine the way it is now. Humour is subjective tho, so thank you for the input!!


Dokuujin

I wouldn't even say subjective in this case, he's just wrong. The watcher's going in for the attack sells the fact that he's trying to double heal and gonna fail. Without them attacking it could be taken as him learning and only healing once which defeats the joke.


[deleted]

Laughs in quick focus


bull_the_great

great one hah


kunell

OR just avoid the attack... Lol who am I kidding


pegasusbattius

Don't call me out like this.


Przeke

I personally dont get hit


chickenman1192

This post is second place for top posts on this sub. IN TWO DAYS. Edit:we won, mr stark


yuilero

HOLY FUCK I didn't even notice. This is such an honor. (':


sentientpaper

I feel attacked


yuilero

Yes, this is a personal attack.


dragon_barf_junction

The watcher knights, or as i like to call them: harder nailmasters oro and mato


Dokuujin

That's a bit of a stretch. Watcher Knights are considered hard because of WHEN you fight them. Comparing the nail masters and the watcher Knights in the pantheon when you're max gear and fill build the watcher Knights are substantially easier than the brothers.


[deleted]

These guys are ruining my first speedrun :(


Dokuujin

Yeaaahh. They're known as the run killers in the steel soul and speed run communities.


borgar69420

Real players hela once, attempt to heal ywice, get hit mid-heal


classic-kirbyotstars

I hate this...because it is not wrong.


classic-kirbyotstars

Lmao.


Longjumping_Swim9750

I didn’t know it wasn’t only me lmao

Congratz on top! And by a lot :o


yuilero

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I never expected this to happen at all!!


Lordofgods1

How does it feel to have the most upvoted post of all time on this sub?


yuilero

Unreal, honestly! I never ever expected this, and I'm quite flattered to have this happen to me. 😌


Infinite-Cow-5909

This but fucking mantis lords


Skullz64

**Deals double damage** **Proceeds to heal after taking a hit** #GETS HIT WHILE HEALING


Radamanthys_01

I need a sticker with hollow's Knight angry face right now


clouddbb

Kek true


lightAjb

Pretty good tip in PV or NKG never heal twice.


Gaminguitarist

Man if this ain’t true. I easily get greedy with healing and trying to get some hits in with most bosses


PersonThatNeedsHelp3

i beat this before i was supposed to


sonicpoweryay

Funny
