@@gyleg as a new hollow knight player who's been playing for a month and is in godhome now (I wanna beat my first game at 112%) I did the exact same thing to Marmu and he never hit me once because he kept bouncing into the walls or straight into my nail.
my first playthrough when he's doing the animation where he teleports everywhere, I had 2 masks I said out loud: "wouldn't it be funny if he had a second phase" 2 seconds pass "he's going to have a 2nd phase isn't he" and he started slamming the floor and I panicked but i won the fight anyway, my hands were shaking but i won
I hate this pantheon for the Oblobble, I am unable to not being hit by them but the final battle against Sheo is really cool and fair. Also great tip for Flukemarm, Pogo jump is really useful here.
I have figured out what your narration reminds me of.... You’re the Bob Ross of these tutorials. Example: “Heal when you can” (Gets Hit) “And if you don’t have time that’s okay to.” Happy Mistakes :D
You don't need steady body necessarily, if you keep your back against the wall and stand in the corner, you can just bounce him off from you and get a quick kill
@@RelyeaGaming i'm stuck on the trial of the fools hence i can't do 3rd pantheon, so i'll just practice with zote in the meantime cause he is kicking me in the butt as well :)
Actually its is slightly off from the middle. Left side middle. There's a line to give you reference. 100% safe zone. But only when the boomerangs are slowly going into the middle. Also you can heal with one mantis lord boomerang throw either from it coming from above or below
Hi Relyea! Your videos are super helpful! Like you I used to find Marmu confusing. One way to cheese him is to go to one of the corners, then he can only come at you from up or from side. Which makes the fight super easy. Cheers! :D
no need to be ashamed. Flukemarm and Oblobbles are the real boss of this pantheon assuming we're using all bindings (yep that's right, reduced nail damage, 4 mask, no charms, and 33 max soul).
Hey Relyea, today I did some progesses: until yesterday, I was stuck at the False Knight dream version of the 4th pantheon, and now I can reach the final boss of this pantheon, but still can't beat it. Kepp up the good work
Tips that helped me beat this pantheon. Xero is actually pretty safe to heal, and safe to attack. Just yodel at him a few times and you should be alright. Crystal Guardian, you can simply just play the offensive. Just eat him up with that nail, then when you can see where his ethereal laser pointer will go, shadow dash to his other side, and keep attacking. When Soul Master starts going crazy, play the long game until he's done headbutting the ground, then finish beating him up. For the Oblobbles, launch Abyss Shrieks and vengeful spirits at them when they're together. They are actually very safe to heal in. I love the Mantis Lords. It's one of my favorite fights actually. I always think of it as a dance, like Grimm. It's like a waltz. Just take your time, and don't be greedy with your hits. Also, refrain from panic healing, because it can be detrimental in this fight. Also, for extra cool points, bow to the mantises. It's just respectful. Marmu, you can just stand there. Only heal one she's down because there is no chill in this fight. Nosk is another one of my favorite fights. You CAN cheese it, but if you don't, you get close to Nosk. Listen to his scream, double jump, and down slash. If you need to heal, do it in the corner. Flukemarm, go onto the bottom platforms, yodel at her, kill her minions, and you should be ok. Broken Vessel, focus on the balloons immediately. He isn't very hard, so just watch him carefully. Paintmaster Sheo, pay attention to the color on his brush. that's all. I hope I helped someone!
If you don’t have a million charm notches (or charms) like me, I like to use baldur shell, quick slash, and quick focus, which uses a total of 8 notches
Honestly Sheo felt exactly like the mantis lords fight. Interesting attacks that aren’t underwhelming and can be deadly if too greedy with attacks but good telegraphs and pretty quick attacks that are fun to memorize. Really my favorite thing about Sheo and the mantis lords is the fact that once you know the pattern there really won’t be anything that you can’t dodge.
Soul is much easier, I use a charm built of, unbreakable strength, quick slash, mark of pride and soul catcher, for the mask one I just replace soul catcher with the one hat gives you an extra mask, so when you do it you have 6 mask instead of 1
died to oblobbles a couple times before realising you could actually heal if you were far enough from your vid, beat sheo second try! thanks for the tips!
i was having a lot of trouble with marmu too. i found that using cyclone slash whenever you can helps a lot, since it covers a tiny bit above and below you too. it's how i beat him on ascended. fun fact: marmu is a puss moth caterpillar
Pro tips for the bosses: Xero: Firing off a vengeful spirt when he's moving away from you always hits twice, and often hits three times Crystal Guardian: when he shoots his lazer at you you can shade dash through him and get a bunch of hits in Soul Master: when he puts the four soul orbs around himself you can sit in the center of the arena and get a heal in, and in his second phase you can use abyss shriek even when he's on the ground due to the horizontal hit box of shriek and the fact that he is fat Oblobbles: you should mainly focus on only one at a time, because once one goes down the other gets a fair bit of health back, so trying to do equal damage to both of them is mostly pointless Mantis Lords: in the first phase mostly focus on keeping your health high, and also only heal when the Lord is closer to the ground and you have to jump as soon as she fires her boomerang (I saw Reylea attempting to heal when she wasn't close to the ground, and every time he got damaged). For the second phase try not to get too greedy with your hits, usually this will be punished. When the Lords are doing the boomerang that goes down the middle you can get a heal, or you can abyss shriek them from below. I don't really have any fancy tricks for Marmu, just do what everyone else does Nosk: hang out in either of the little nooks in the stage for his charge attack, and his blobs out of stomach attack (see replys for continuation)
And when he goes into the ceiling slightly inch out of the way when anything falls down Flukemarm: you can hit it until you get enough soul, and abyss shriek it from underneath, this will also probably kill the small flukes. Broken Vessel: generally, don't stay in the air unless they are about to dash attack you, and try to kill the balloons as soon as they spawn. When they start shooting blobs from below you, you can fire off some spells from a distance.
Another tip for Mantis lords: During the 2nd phase you can get in a little spot right in the middle to heal (Just be careful and make sure the spot is right before you try and heal)
Tips Xero: Use Abyss shriek/howling wraiths Crystal guardian: Dash trough him when he fires the beam. Soul master: In second phase, try to kill him at the first orb time Oblobbles: Kill both at same time. Mantis lords: dont heal until the second phase. Marmu: stay in the corner and slash him. Nosk: Watch where it jumps. Flukemarm: Just AGGRO!!!! Broken vessel: Watch for balloons. Sheo: Try to see hes brushes color
I'm a little late to the game, (just started playing for the first time about 2 weeks ago) but your vids have been super helpful. Also - I remember how difficult I found hornet and mantis lords when I initially fought them early on, and now, they are a joke. 😂
The charm build that finally got me through the Pantheons was: Quick Focus, Deep Focus, Shape of Unn, Grubsong and Spore Shroom (just for good measure). All that leaves so much margin for error like you wouldn't believe. Felt like cheating at times.
One good thing to note about the mantis lords, DO MOST OF THE HEALING WITH THE FIRST ONE! You can stall him by not doing more damage than needed for a heal, and when he does the scythe from the bottom jump and then heal once and twice with quickheal
Personally, to beat Flukemarm and the Crystal Guardian, I just use Cyclone Slash. It actually does a lot more damage than Abyss Shriek even with the Shaman Stone if you get all the hits in.
Someone probably already said this, but for the mantis lords it's much easier to heal when one of them throws the scythe close to the ground first, and it moves back up. You can jump over it and then heal. When she throws the scythe high first, I like to stand at the edge of the platform and get an abyss shriek in. They grip the wall high or low depending. For flukemarm, charge up your nail at the beginning of the fight, jump, and do a cyclone nail art while falling next to her. Keep mashing attack for additional damage, and when when you've fallen under her, a bunch of abyss shriek finish it off. With shaman stone it takes like ten seconds ... if anyone has tips for the obleobble that'd be nice
Tip for flukearm, you can stall time and farm soul from those flying things until your max soul and max masks and then you can just kill flukearm with abyss shreik
@@RelyeaGaming Well, yesterday I did the flower quest at third try, but I still have to defeat NKG, the last colo and the 2 pantheons to get the 112%. I just realized that I'm talking with the legend itself, I LOVE your videos, you're the best!
Hi, i finished Hollow Knight today (103%). What a game ! But i m not enough crazy to try hard some bosses (grimm 2, pantheon) , that's why i m watching your video. Thank you ;)
I think that i can do the first and the second pantheons if i take time but... i m done with this game ahahah. I saved all Grubs, i have 40 charms, killed all bosses except grim 2nd version, radiance, the 3rd challenge in the colloseum and pantheons' bosses. I love this game, i have 30 hours. I read some explications about the story. Now, i m ready for Silksong ;) Again, thank you for your videos, i m watching some of yours ;)
I find the mantis lord SOOO fun to fight against like their pattern is easy and yet so little mess up and you are dead. They work so perfectly as a boss fight. I can do it semi perfect with only two hits on me I love them so much
for crystal guardian , if you wanna beat it really fast you can just shade dash through it when it focuses the laser and hit it in the back you can keep repeating this and the fight will be over much quicker
I find it easy to shadow dash through the crystal guardian when he begins charging the laser because you can get a lot of hits in without taking any damage Also not many people know but you can actually abyss shriek Nosk when he goes into the ceiling which can do a lot of damage (same thing at the start of the Traitor Lord fight)
Today I continued my journey a little bit more. Did this pantheon and the Sage pantheon first try. They are so easy. In the artist I had obblobles who gave me lots of trouble but I had a lot of soul so heal back. Paintmaster sheo was so easy! His blue attack was a little bit annoying but he got knocked out so fast that I could always heal and beat him in a minute. Pantheon of the sage was little bit harder but I managed to do it. I thought uumuu would give me trouble but he just spawned those jellyfishes so early and i just pogoed on him and he died very fast. Sly was a challenge because he was fast and small but his nail is HUGE! I did his first phase fast and healed back but had 4 masks left. Second phase I just tried to heal and got hit back then I hit sly few times and repeat. I beat him.
I wanna give u a tip since you helped me kill traitor lord. Use abyss shriek on the two obblobles whenever they’re near eachother and you’ll deal equal damage and just spam abyss shriek at them.
Does every pantheon add 1% to the game completion?Because im on 108% and still have to beat pantheons 2,3,4,5 (haven't tried them yet. Love your videos btw, they help a lot.
Each pantheon DOES give 1% but only 1-4. P5 does not give % completion. I made a video on what gives completion here: czcams.com/video/1YQ9TT0JbFY/video.html Check the description
I just tanked Paintmaster Sheo with build including quick slash, unbreakable strength and stalwart shell. as long as you avoid his dive attack you can tank everything else
I feel like the Cyclone Slash is underused by so many players. Downs the Flukeworm boss in about 4 spins and at times gets rid of the spawns. Does a huge number on the Failed Knight dream Boss if anyone is having trouble with him. Nail Arts are a playstyle though. I use them religiously. If anyone has trouble with a boss let me know. I freaking love to disect their attacks. Also FUCK MAMOO ABYSS SHRIEK HIS ASS FOR THE WIN
This was actually my first pantheon and this is how it went First attempt: Died to the obblobes Second attempt: I tried doing overcharmed and died to the obblobes again Third attempt: Success (almost died to Sheo) Charms: -Unbreakable strength -Shaman’s stone -Soul eater
I feel like Artist is easier than Master. Sheo is easier to deal with than his brothers, and Artist doesn’t have goddamn Brooding Mawlek (I’m just way too salty about how bad I am at avoiding damage in that arena).
My bread and butter during the pantheon is usually the same as yours except insted of soul catcher I use sharp shadow as its crutch of making dash go faster comes handy when going through bosses
Honestly, you should switch the soul cachet trash into a fire in favor of spell twister. Either you get a barely noticeable difference or get 4 spells per charge
..wait what? You're pretty good at the game I've never seen anyone have trouble with marmuu hahaha.. you just play tennis and keep smacking it's ass til it dies
Honestly like the pantheons don’t seem too difficult because you have the ability to practice them a bunch of times. They are also at the base difficulty (ex. Soul Master instead of Soul Tyrant) but these Nail Masters mess up my run each time!! Lol
I watched this just in case but he turned out to be one of the easiest bosses of the pantheon (sheo). I got super dumb luck and got the oblobbles hitless and made it past marmu so I was trying to be safe
@@RelyeaGaming really? I dont like fighting him. His moves are all easy. The balloons can be anoying. I liked grimm. The atmosphere and the design of grimm along with the music just really made the fight epic. It's all about memorization and patients. Though I do think theres something cool about how the brocken vessle is like us and it's almost like what we could become if you dont stop radience.
@@keshanth117 oh when I beat nkg it was the first time I had ever been so invested nervous and jolted over a game. I was sweating red and was so happy. But I still like just grimm better. Do you mean the sisters of battle? Yes there a good challenge. Amazing how adding the 1 sister makes the fight even harder.
Dude the Oblobbles confuse me the same as Marmu does to you. Been trying the charmless binding and I’m good with every other boss but Oblobbles always takes me down to like two masks
Relyea: "It's easy"
Me: *dies 52 times at the first boss*
you will get it
Excuse me, but *_what_*
Antoine Bourcier you die at xero?
Yeah xero is really annoying
Real Shmooie Yep but i tried over and over and I won 👍🏻
I could beat the pantheon of the artist without getting hit. But almost dies when being attacked by primal aspids
Sounds about right
Honestly I thought that this pantheon was way more fun than the first, and I found it easier as well.

I hate marmu for sure. Not easy
You can cheese him by standing in the corner and just time an upward slash right when he's near. You can beat him easily and hitless this way.

I have figured out what your narration reminds me of....
You’re the Bob Ross of these tutorials.
Example:
“Heal when you can”
(Gets Hit)
“And if you don’t have time that’s okay to.”
Happy Mistakes :D
LOL. the best part is that this is not the first time I have heard this. I should REALLY lean into that persona.
Tip for Marmu (especially in ascended mode). Use steady body and stand in a corner so he doesn't go around you.
That’s a good call
Mecabuyte and heavy blow
I just used minions, they hit Marmu without knockback so you only have to shade cloak through
That's all I did when I first fought him lol
You don't need steady body necessarily, if you keep your back against the wall and stand in the corner, you can just bounce him off from you and get a quick kill
It's funny how much easier this is than the first one
I know! I was surprised too
The hard thing about the first one is that damn Mawlek, I can defeat every boss easily but not the Mawlek. He’s just so annoying

Agreed
I hate it
When the 2 mantis lords throw the close boomerangs stand in the middle of the arena and heal, you will almost never get hit
good call
Or just look down
Actually its is slightly off from the middle. Left side middle. There's a line to give you reference. 100% safe zone. But only when the boomerangs are slowly going into the middle.
Also you can heal with one mantis lord boomerang throw either from it coming from above or below
Lol i discovered this because i was too scared to move in that attack
With the Shape of Unn, you can dodge the boomerangs and heal. Even better with Quick Focus.
Hi Relyea!
Your videos are super helpful! Like you I used to find Marmu confusing. One way to cheese him is to go to one of the corners, then he can only come at you from up or from side. Which makes the fight super easy.
Cheers! :D
I'm ashamed, I died to Flukemarm
It was my only death ,_,
Nothing to be ashamed about. If you go too early and the flying things take two hits, that miss is super tough
What if you die to flukemarm while have max masks and max vessel fragments and a pure nail
no need to be ashamed. Flukemarm and Oblobbles are the real boss of this pantheon assuming we're using all bindings (yep that's right, reduced nail damage, 4 mask, no charms, and 33 max soul).
It’s ok it happens to us all
I keep dying to Oblobbles. You have it better than me.
Hey Relyea, today I did some progesses: until yesterday, I was stuck at the False Knight dream version of the 4th pantheon, and now I can reach the final boss of this pantheon, but still can't beat it. Kepp up the good work
Make sure to practice in the hall of gods. That is what is going to help the most.
@@RelyeaGaming This is a nice tip! Do you know if there is the Pure Vessel in the hall if I haven't defeated him yet?
Pure vessel is at the end of P4, pantheon of the Knight
@@RelyeaGaming Yes, I know, he killed me at least twice. Can I face him in the Hall of Gods if I haven't defeated him yet in his pantheon?
Yes. As long as you have encounters a boss they will be in the hall of gods

I totally get it. The best thing to do is practice that one boss over and over until you can beat them 3 times in a row

So awesome! Glad I could help
Tips that helped me beat this pantheon.

That is super interesting. Great tip
after seeing this video I went to try it and I managed it on the first try!
That is what I like to hear!
Pro tips for the bosses:
Xero: Firing off a vengeful spirt when he's moving away from you always hits twice, and often hits three times
Crystal Guardian: when he shoots his lazer at you you can shade dash through him and get a bunch of hits in
Soul Master: when he puts the four soul orbs around himself you can sit in the center of the arena and get a heal in, and in his second phase you can use abyss shriek even when he's on the ground due to the horizontal hit box of shriek and the fact that he is fat
Oblobbles: you should mainly focus on only one at a time, because once one goes down the other gets a fair bit of health back, so trying to do equal damage to both of them is mostly pointless
Mantis Lords: in the first phase mostly focus on keeping your health high, and also only heal when the Lord is closer to the ground and you have to jump as soon as she fires her boomerang (I saw Reylea attempting to heal when she wasn't close to the ground, and every time he got damaged).

And when he goes into the ceiling slightly inch out of the way when anything falls down
Flukemarm: you can hit it until you get enough soul, and abyss shriek it from underneath, this will also probably kill the small flukes.
Broken Vessel: generally, don't stay in the air unless they are about to dash attack you, and try to kill the balloons as soon as they spawn. When they start shooting blobs from below you, you can fire off some spells from a distance.
Great tips!
For Marmu, just stand in the left corner and play baseball when he comes near. I find slashing up gives the most coverage.
@@gyleg home run!
Another tip for Mantis lords: During the 2nd phase you can get in a little spot right in the middle to heal (Just be careful and make sure the spot is right before you try and heal)

Tips
Xero: Use Abyss shriek/howling wraiths
Crystal guardian: Dash trough him when he fires the beam.
Soul master: In second phase, try to kill him at the first orb time
Oblobbles: Kill both at same time.
Mantis lords: dont heal until the second phase.
Marmu: stay in the corner and slash him.
Nosk: Watch where it jumps.

for crystal guardian , if you wanna beat it really fast you can just shade dash through it when it focuses the laser and hit it in the back
you can keep repeating this and the fight will be over much quicker
First try! 11:34. Hahaha love it man thanks!
Well done! Congrats on the win. Let me know how the next one goes for you
I find it easy to shadow dash through the crystal guardian when he begins charging the laser because you can get a lot of hits in without taking any damage
Also not many people know but you can actually abyss shriek Nosk when he goes into the ceiling which can do a lot of damage (same thing at the start of the Traitor Lord fight)
Today I continued my journey a little bit more.
Did this pantheon and the Sage pantheon first try.
They are so easy.
In the artist I had obblobles who gave me lots of trouble but I had a lot of soul so heal back. Paintmaster sheo was so easy! His blue attack was a little bit annoying but he got knocked out so fast that I could always heal and beat him in a minute.
Pantheon of the sage was little bit harder but I managed to do it. I thought uumuu would give me trouble but he just spawned those jellyfishes so early and i just pogoed on him and he died very fast. Sly was a challenge because he was fast and small but his nail is HUGE! I did his first phase fast and healed back but had 4 masks left. Second phase I just tried to heal and got hit back then I hit sly few times and repeat. I beat him.
First try?!? That’s amazing
@@RelyeaGaming thanks!!
And I also did pure vessle on godseeker mode thanks to your guide on his moves. It helped me beat him earlier
Wait what sage is insanely hard, I did the 1st pantheon on the 1st try and the 2nd on the 2nd try but the sage is not easy at all
@@davidkim5462 it may be hard but with the right knowledge and upgrades it shouldn't be that tough
I wanna give u a tip since you helped me kill traitor lord. Use abyss shriek on the two obblobles whenever they’re near eachother and you’ll deal equal damage and just spam abyss shriek at them.
all i wanted was to get the empty slots full
*on hall of gods*
Relyea: "I took a lot of damage, but it'll be alright"
Mantis Lords: "Haha you wish"
Fun drinking game: take a shot/sip every time Relyea says “super easy”.
for some reason oblobbles are super hard for me
though i find a good strat is to stay near a corner and shade soul them if they try to ram into you
Purple Rain! I see what they did there!
"And when its purple watch the rain"
I see what you did there
Does every pantheon add 1% to the game completion?Because im on 108% and still have to beat pantheons 2,3,4,5 (haven't tried them yet. Love your videos btw, they help a lot.
Each pantheon DOES give 1% but only 1-4. P5 does not give % completion. I made a video on what gives completion here:
czcams.com/video/1YQ9TT0JbFY/video.html
Check the description
I always tried beating this Pantheon, but the Oblobbles always killed me 💀
I legit no joke killed brothers oro and mato first time blindly (with one mask lol) so now im watching this video to finish the second too!
You can abyss shriek flukemarm from below, and pretty much melt through him.
Good call
I didn't even try before searching this, I'm not even taking chances.
6:00 If you stand in the middle on this attack, you are guranteed one heal
Ah yes, pantheon of the " i died to this guy on my first run of the game but did them first try on my second run"
Yay, at least this is quick and easy.
Not too bad overall
purple is the perfect time to heal
that being said use quick focus!!
After years, i just got that the purple paint is a rederence to Purple Rain by Prince
I just tanked Paintmaster Sheo with build including quick slash, unbreakable strength and stalwart shell. as long as you avoid his dive attack you can tank everything else
The health of the oblobble that doesn’t die actually resets once one dies
I'm subscribing now thank you so much you helped so much in hollow whit out you I would be so lost thx you for helping me though the game
I used fluke as an infinite soul generator and quickly finished him off and quickly killed broken vessel
Only to get absolutely destroyed by Sheo
This pantheon was wayyyy easier than the first one quick slash and dream shield are a great combo!!!
oh and with Nosk, I just think of it as Free Soul, Same as Crystal guardian for the 3rd pantheon as such
since he's so Easily Cheesed
Thanks to you i beat it first try, this deserves a like 👍
Y'know,it's weird,it took me 10+ tries for The first Pantheon and this was a first try
Recommendation: upon getting the checkpoint, swap either Mark of Pride or Shaman Stone for Quick Slash.
Still tryna beat this pantheon with the charms binding! I l've become reliant on Sharp Shadow and I feel lost without it! Lol
I feel like the Cyclone Slash is underused by so many players.
Downs the Flukeworm boss in about 4 spins and at times gets rid of the spawns.
Does a huge number on the Failed Knight dream Boss if anyone is having trouble with him.
Nail Arts are a playstyle though. I use them religiously.
If anyone has trouble with a boss let me know. I freaking love to disect their attacks.
Also FUCK MAMOO ABYSS SHRIEK HIS ASS FOR THE WIN
Another awesome guide!
I beat it first try because of these tips
Me who's struggling on the pantheon of hallownest: interesting
This was actually my first pantheon and this is how it went
First attempt: Died to the obblobes
Second attempt: I tried doing overcharmed and died to the obblobes again
Third attempt: Success (almost died to Sheo)
Charms:
-Unbreakable strength
-Shaman’s stone
-Soul eater
Btw I watched the video after beating the pantheon
I feel like Artist is easier than Master. Sheo is easier to deal with than his brothers, and Artist doesn’t have goddamn Brooding Mawlek (I’m just way too salty about how bad I am at avoiding damage in that arena).
My bread and butter during the pantheon is usually the same as yours except insted of soul catcher I use sharp shadow as its crutch of making dash go faster comes handy when going through bosses
My ultimate charm setup is mark of pride, unbreakable strength, shaman stone and sharp shadow. It does wonders
Honestly, you should switch the soul cachet trash into a fire in favor of spell twister. Either you get a barely noticeable difference or get 4 spells per charge
7:02 to beat marmu, dash through his first ball attack every time he lunges at you then jugle him, you SHOULDNT take any damage
I feel like purple rain is a subtle reference
After the first check point is just scary for me, All the bosses I'm bad at except flux nest and then being color blind
That would make things harder for sure!
somehow i beat this in my first try, thx!
When is third coming? Love your vids they really help!!
Likely tomorrow if I can get is ready in time tonight
@@RelyeaGaming thanks!!
..wait what? You're pretty good at the game I've never seen anyone have trouble with marmuu hahaha.. you just play tennis and keep smacking it's ass til it dies
Honestly like the pantheons don’t seem too difficult because you have the ability to practice them a bunch of times. They are also at the base difficulty (ex. Soul Master instead of Soul Tyrant) but these Nail Masters mess up my run each time!! Lol
I watched this just in case but he turned out to be one of the easiest bosses of the pantheon (sheo). I got super dumb luck and got the oblobbles hitless and made it past marmu so I was trying to be safe
I’m starting to attempt this one. Damn these Oblobbles or whatever they are called. Even radiant Oro and Mato are easier.
Ok maybe not
literally died 5 times on pantheon of the master but i first tried this
Wow you destroyed most of those bosses, relyea! What's your favorite boss in hollow knight?
For some reason I like broken vessel. Maybe it’s because he’s one of us
@@RelyeaGaming really? I dont like fighting him. His moves are all easy. The balloons can be anoying. I liked grimm. The atmosphere and the design of grimm along with the music just really made the fight epic. It's all about memorization and patients. Though I do think theres something cool about how the brocken vessle is like us and it's almost like what we could become if you dont stop radience.
I liked the the mantis lords (the late version if you know what I mean). Aside from that a was so high when I beat NKG
@@keshanth117 oh when I beat nkg it was the first time I had ever been so invested nervous and jolted over a game. I was sweating red and was so happy. But I still like just grimm better. Do you mean the sisters of battle? Yes there a good challenge. Amazing how adding the 1 sister makes the fight even harder.
I know that feeling. It’s soo good
Dude the Oblobbles confuse me the same as Marmu does to you. Been trying the charmless binding and I’m good with every other boss but Oblobbles always takes me down to like two masks
First try babyyy thanks bro
Bro I was tripping when I saw the icons on the door. The mantis lords' icon looks like the hollow knight's and I was so confused
My biggest struggle is the oblobbles for some reason
Dude marmu messes with my brain too an I have trouble with it also lol
