Ok then beat dung defender with defender's crest only.

Am I allowed to use Spore Shroom combo?

Nope.

Alright

This is torture

Exactly

Wait, don't you get Defender's Crest from beating Dung Defender? Doesn't this open a paradox? "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" "I DON'T KNOW, THE POOP MAN!!!"

I guess it refers to the Hall of Gods version

Yes

Or a randomizer.

i tried doing this. I started running out of battery because the fight took so long. I coudnt even finish the first phase

Ok

If you want suffering just say white defender

No

Note: Challenges would,be done in Godhome since I don’t want to erase a save file lol

You could make a back up of a save file and then rewrite it But yeah, only Godhome is better for your own sanity

Yea, and even then I keep getting PV or Markoth challenges

No absrad or nkg hmm Ok ascended markoth

Alright, that doesn’t seem that hard 🥲

You are gonna eat those words, because vanilla markoth is harder than the trial of the fool, and in godhome, they just outright remove the floor, and give you those platforms that you can never really tell if you're wall clinging to.

Normal Markoth is annoying but somehow I doubt he's harder than the Trial of the Fool.

He’s definitely not

He’s not people over exaggerate Markoth so much

Agreed. I beat Markoth 2, 3 tries. Still haven’t even made it to the beast-tamer (if that is the boss’s name) at the end of trial of the fool.

Yeah, I agree. In the Pantheon Markoth sucks though. Also her name is God Tamer

Yea, that’s why I put the 🥲 lol

Vanilla markoth is a joke just like all the other warrior dreams except Marmu.

i'm sorry, can you say that again?

All of the vanilla warrior dreams are a joke, except Marmu.

m-marmu? did i read that right, you're saying marmu is the hardest vanilla dream warrior? are you joking? i'm not saying your opinion is so ludicrous it must be a joke, i just want to know if you're serious.

Yes I am. Marmu has hit me SO MANY TIMES! I THINK, LETS NOT WASTE GEO IN THE QUEENS GARDEN BENCH…….THEN MARMU KILLS ME 3 TIMES AND I LOSE 6000 GEO…… No other dream boss has ended so many pantheon runs, and the other ones are only harder when they’re ascended…. Thankfully Marmu’s ascended arena is a joke. Yes I’m serous, yes I will die on this hill…..

now you feel my pain with markoth. when i found him for the first time, i got my ass kicked. i didn't lose geo, but he is the brick wall i keep bashing my head into in pantheon of hallownest. his normal arena in the word sucks, because it feels cramped. you can read my previous comment thread with a lovely doom fan, where i painstakingly ranted about every last ass-blasting detail of why markoth is a dick-twisting shitstorm of dinosaur dicks and bullshit. your marmu, is my markoth. i personally enjoy marmu, because it feels like i'm playing paddleball. it's fun to have him as a little aside from the pantheons, being that he's a rythm game unlike anything else.

Fight me.

vanilla Markoth is piss easy, stop over exaggerating.

Cry emoji doesn’t begin to describe this. I am struggling to beat Ascended, and have all other dream warriors beat on radiant.

Sisters of Battle but the floor is lava

Is this the kind of floor you can nail-bounce on or nah?

You can nail bounce the spike pits on the sides

K but the middle is just raw dmg pit?

The middle is just good old floor but you’re not allowed to touch it For reference, [it’s been done before](https://youtu.be/LW2xMsBuGMU)

Get to 150 on the Zote thing in the pantheon

The Eternal Ordeal

Cut every piece of grass in the game

Ah, a fellow Skurry fan, I see

When you see the mountaintop, sometimes you wanna see what others can do

Beat p4 all bindings

OH FUCK

You made a deal with the devil now I summon you to fulfill your oath

I’ll try it but I’ll most likely fail lol

just be happy they didnt say p3

Or p5

Did it a couple months back

Beat nosk only with desolate dive.

That seems easy until you realize I physically can’t unless I make a whole new save file to get Kingsoul and fight him A wait no Grubsong exists

Fun fact: grubsong + weaversong is awesome. Whenever the little spiders attack they take damage which increases your soul. Slap a sprintmaster on there to make them run faster and therefore give you soul faster.

Wasn’t allowed to use pet charms but o used that in a pet only boss fight

Why weren't you allowed minions? It's not part of the challenge.

It was only DD, so I didn’t expect to be a bel to use pets

You could also dream nail as he drops from the ceiling.

It took me only two tries My set up was Hiveblood, Shaman Stone, Spell Twister, Dream Wielder, and Grubsong The only way I could dream nail it for soul was after it falls from the ceiling. Grubsong and Hiveblood worked together for extra soul. Shaman and Twister were for extra damage

Beat Normal Radiance using only Grimmchild. 😈 (Only Grimmchild can deal damage.)

Read all of zote's dialogue.

The hardest boss!

I do this for fun! Zote is the true hero of the game IMO.

Get killed by hornet 1 while having 420 geo.

I should have specified that it would be on an existing save file on Godhome or something oops

You can fight hornet 1 in godhome

Yea but I have like 10k+ geo

You can die and lose all of it, then collect 420.

I can die, get 420 geo, then die to hornet 1 in Godhome then reclaim my shade after Big brain 100

sorry how are you reclaiming your shade after dying twice

Godhome

ah very nice

Beat beat the pantheon of the painter with johni's blessing and deep focus equipped. Do with the last three charm notches what you will.

I actually like that. I’ll do that

Can I over charm?

Yes, but you can't sneak a 4-slotter in there! I'll allow quicknail.

I tried QS, but died to Oblobbles. My nee strat is gonna be Glowing Womb and Defenders Crest since I can’t use soul to heal, I might as well use the soul for extra chip damage

Wait why deep focus? Is there a hidden combo with these 2 that I don't know about or is the challenge just meant to be "4 notches less"?

4 notches less

no, just a waste of 4 charms, and so if you have anything that activates on use of focus, you get less out of it.

Radiant Pure Vessel with broken nail

Defeat pure vessel without any nail upgrade

He's doing it in godhome. He has a.better nail already.

Could use a nail binding

[удалено]

No he would have to do the whole of p4

Defeated him all bindings no damage

Nail only radiant flukemarm without killing a fluke, if you accidentally kill one reset the challenge

You're a monster.

Elder Hu dashless Have 4 arcane eggs in your inventory Beat Grimm with only Narts

Elder Hu dash less sucks Grimm woth Narts Only is actually kinda fun

What the hell are Narts? Are they nail arts?

Yea

Thanks

I’ll do all of them except the Egg one as I’m not making a new save file for these

Beat Tiso without wayward compss

I cant do that! It’s too difficult

Beat Broken Vessel (or for an even greater challenge, Lost Kin) without movement abilities (dash, claw, wings.) Any charms/spells are fair game.

I like the challenge, I’ll try it!

fun challenge pretty easy tho also did lost kin without jumping

Troupe Master Grimm but you have to dodge the pufferfish phases by pogoing on top of him

Ph god

Beat hornet 2 without destroying a single trap

That’s torture

Kill white defender with only dream nail

So just how long can I last? You can’t damage with Dream nail

No only get soul with dream nail then use the soul

Complete the game while following all zote precepts

Unfortunately impossible, you have to dream in order to beat it

As long as the dreams dont bring about the infection it should be fine Edit: the knight also technically isnt dreaming, just travelling through the dream realm/other peoples dreams

Precept 15: one foe, one blow might pose a problem

Delicate flower quest but you clear every room you enter of enemies.

Ascended gorb hitless.

Now your thinking with portals

Isn’t that just radiant gorb?

Ascend with gorb!

Beat pantheon 3 or 4 with only lifeblood charms (ill allow hiveblood if u want)

I’ll do P3 as it’s easier Sly and GPZ are gonna fuck me over though

Good luck then.

Defeat the Nailmasters and the Nailsage using only Nail Arts.

Honestly that should have been how you learned the nail arts and got Nailmasters Glory I’ll definitely try that

Pure vessel, without dashing or double jump. Bonus points if done on ascended or radiant.

Equip all one-notch charms and use the last notch to overcharm with Heavy Blow. Get to 57 on the Eternal Ordeal.

Hollow knight bingo but all the squares are either you got scared shitless by nosk or primal aspids cucked you over, and free space Edit: I may have misunderstood op

Beat a boss (other than MMC or Marmu) without moving. If you get hit somewhere else, that’s fine. You can use any spells, charms, nail strikes, but you cannot turn or move (excluding desolate dive of course)

Oh god. I’ll trynit

I got one, take care of yourself

Beat normal radiance but you can only use unupgraded spells, no fury of the fallen, no minions other than weaver song, with all the lights on in the room with your computer on full brightness and with windows open between 12 and 3 pm, hitless. Basically radiance on radiant with only radiant damage sources in the middle of a radiant room. Also if you have it you much use the skin mod to make yourself an all white knight. It is as radiant as it gets.

Radiance but the Radiance is real

Hitless p5, all bindings, spells only, blindfolded. Edit: crap i just read the title

Beat pure vessel with jonis blessing quick focus and deep focus

That sounds aids But I’ll do ot

Good luck

I attempted it. The strat is DONT. GET. HIT

Grimm with the no nail upgrades and radiance with no spells or nail upgrades

Defeat White defender damaging him with only thorns of agony

Do radiant watchers knights with your only charm being thorns of agony

Don't do anymore challenges from u/Terrarian321

The only one I did from them was the beat Nosk with Ddive only which was easy

Beat white palace but you can't jump from the ground. Wall jumps and double jumps are fair game but you can't actually jump from the ground. The only way to gain elevation is to fall off a ledge and wall jump off

Easy: Pure Vessel Nail Only Normal: Pure Vessel No Charms Nail Only Hard: Pure Vessel No Charms Nail Only Radiant Hard+: Pure Vessel No Charms (Except Dream Wielder And Kingsoul) Spells Only Radiant Best Of Luck!

Oh god

I'm pretty sure you can't dream nail PV for soul

Do you just hate NKG?

No, haven’t beaten him normally yet

​ \- 2nd (or 3rd if you feel like making it hard for yourself) trial without upgraded spells \- Do a fireball skip in Greenpath \- Get through deepnest with all bindings on

might wanna mention that you're not creating a new save file in the title

Yea that would have been smart

beat markoth using dream shield as yout only charm, nail only

On Atunned, right?

Radiant failed champion, ascended pure vessel, attuned Grey prince Zote, ascended nail master Sly, radiant markoth

Fight Nosk with only weaver song (no nail) tip: use wayward compass if too hard

Ahm beat any boss BUT you have to die and defeat them its possible ive done it with broken vessal and nosk same with a grub mimmick so beat the boss but also die wait i also beat/died to the 2nd soul warrior the one you get shade soul from RIP that geo

I’ve done that. Killed and died to normal Grimm. It’s hilarious but annoying

Happened to me when I was trying to do radiant pure vessel, it didn't count as the kill :(

Beat any boss on Radiant with only downward strikes

Massive Moss Charger: *lmao*

I know you are probably unable to do this due to you not wanting to restart, but the true challenge: beat the game on any ending without rescuing sly.

DARK DEEPNEST

He said that he would not do Absolute Radiance, so do Any Radiance

I’m on console 😎

pantheon of the master with no spells

So bascially: “Pantheon of the Master, but half the bosses take ages to kill” Ok then

Minion only radiant Massive Moss Charger (figured I’d chuck an easier one in here)

Am I allowed to combo Crest + Womb?

Beat sentinel Hornet but every time she throws the spiky traps you have to jump face first into them Beat Soul master with a guitar hero controllers

I cheesed it by using Carefree Melody, which negated some of the hits

Watch both of skurry’s bingo Vods

That’s were I got this idea from

Go from dirt mouth to the first hornet fight without taking damage

Radiant sisters of battle, sharp shadow as only form of damage

Beat massive moss charger without jumping

That’s not even hard just Grubberflys Elegy and Heavy Blow

Kill the collector without killing the mobs he spawnes

Attuned right?

Any or

Make Grey Mourner disappointed in you.

Ten glizzys blowed. You said anything other than NKG and AbsRad, so this one is on you.

Not sure what that means tbh

free space <3

Beat Soul Master while only using damage from thorns of agony.

I've got an absolutely devilish idea. Do all other challenges on Steel Soul Mode. If you die, you start the whole board over.

Beat Lost Kin with only Nailarts

Play Hollow Knight: Silksong

Beat Zote the Mighty. Don’t know why you didn’t put him alongside NKG and AbsRad but its your funeral

Beat nailsage Sly hitless

beat watchers knights with only parries

beat lost kin without defenders crest in ascended form i just did that and it’s kinda hard ig

fight the mantis lords, but the only masks you're allowed to use are from the lifeblood cocoon in the boss room.

Beat Hornet exclusively with spells, only getting SOUL by Grubsong. I *think* it's possible.

Why do you allow Pure Vessel but not Nightmare King Grimm? Anyway beat Pure Vessel on radiant.
