1:38:32 I know this kind of thing isn't all that uncommon in randomizers and other modded stuff, but... Hornet just chilling behind the locked Kingsbrand door just feels so cursed.
you got herrah at 1:02:48 you got hit, teleported to herrah's dreams, and then some other mod teleported you back out of there and healed the damage you took. don't worry, spikes aren't bugged very often (only when a bug falls on them)
More detailed explanation of what happened - it wasn't a mod that teleported him out. He teleported into Herrah's room, the instant dreamer mod caused him to instantly get Herrah and leave, but then the script for taking damage in a darkroom kicked in and teleported him back to the start of the darkroom because that's a special thing that happens.
@@zweihanderpancakes1855 yeah i think they mean that you're contradicting yourself. first you said it wasn't a mod, and then you said it was the instant dreamer mod. that could only make sense if the instant dreamer mod isn't a mod, but then it still doesn't make sense that something with "mod" in its name isn't a mod. also, maybe it wasn't the script for taking damage, maybe it was just leaving the dreamer room. idk what exactly the scripts are, but i wouldn't be surprised if leaving a dreamer room teleports you back to where you were, instead of teleporting you to the dreamer's position. i guess the only way to test that without messing with the code is taking damage while having both mods active (maybe use infinite hp or something like that as well), and seeing where you get teleported if you weren't in a dark room
I would love to see the "teleport when hit" used with pantheon of hallownest. I feel like it would be to hard to make it so if you are hit you are sent to a different boss until you die or kill them all.
I got into this game a year ago on PS4 after watching 1 video and seeing it free that month for playstation plus. After my first completion i used your any% guide to get me some practice on just being better at the game and got an official patch completion of under 4 hours. Your guide is magnificent for newer people to start speedruns. Im not a speedrunner but i love watching you run this game.
Radiance is definitely one of the hardest bosses to beat for the first time, but once you're familiar with Absolute Radiance, the regular fight just feels like its in slow motion.
@@estebancasillas9529 Edit: oops, just realized you said fight, not beat. Eh I'll leave the advice here, maybe someone someday will use it. Anyway, To fight abs rad you have to get to the top of pantheon 5. Practice. Took me a long while to get past the first stage, so don't feel like you're bad (you're not) and don't give up, but do take breaks. Desolate dive is your best friend. It gives you immunity frames, so if you feel like you're going to get hit, dive. Lots of people also say abyss shriek is also your best friend, as it does a lot of damage. However, I've found that unless you're going full spell build, it's better to learn when you can heal and use your soul for that. First and second stage, stay cautious, attacking when you can (I would recommend shriek at full health or lots of soul, just nail hits otherwise). Note, you can heal when absrad does the laser attacks, find a safe spot and immediately start healing. You can sometimes get away with two heals, but it's risky and since absrad deals 2 masks of damage, I would only go for one. You can also heal when absrad shoots swords out of her eye, but the timing and finding a safe area is more difficult. The platform section appears more difficult than the first two phases, but just requires more patience. There is more time between attacks, so it's actually easier to heal (you can get safe triple heals if you time it right, but it's better to do double heals). The strategy is to just stay on one platform and dodge, until absrad spawns near you. Then I usually start attacking as soon as possible, and I try to dive or simply dodge her attack. I don't always succeed, but I get plenty of soul to heal if I mess up, and I just did a lot of damage. The hardest part of this phase is to consistently dodge attacks and be patient enough. Climbing phase isn't too difficult, it's just very stressful. Breathe, move quickly but not too quickly. Don't try to anticipate where the lasers will go unless you are very familiar with the climb. Just watch where it will spawn, and move out of the way. The last phase is the easiest but the most stressful. Especially since I often got up there with one heart. If you have soul, I would recommend using vengeful spirit. Shriek does more damage, but it's harder to dodge the orbs. Don't try to heal, it's not worth the high chance you'll mess up. I know the fight is almost over, but I would still have patience. In fact, I usually just stick to one side and attack once or twice when abs rad teleported near me. Quick slash is must, strength is very good I'd you rely on nail, otherwise use shaman stone. Quick focus, Carefree melody, mark of pride, and spell twister are good optional charms. Shadow dash, steady body, and nail masters glory is good if you are already used to it. Steady body is normally a must for me, but abs rad doesn't take knockback, is a large target, and in the air, so it's not a necessity for this fight. Good luck
I love how Fire says that Mawlek is tough early game and that fighting it with nothing is cursed, yet after challenging myself to beat it as soon as possible in a vanilla run (so with no upgrades, spells, or helpful charms) and succeeding after multiple attempts, I now find fighting him as early as possible to be super fun even though it takes longer and is definitely more challenging. The fact that I'm forced to really learn the boss if I want to survive and need to carefully manage my heals between his attacks really makes me appreciate the game more. I learned something cool about him too. Not only can you get over his maw when he does that big acid attack without needing dash, but if you put hitboxes on, you'll see that his damaging hitbox actually gets SHORTER during the attack so the player would have more leeway to make it over him and even touch his mouth a bit without taking damage. Team Cherry really made sure that you could have a fair fight with him even at the soonest point it was possible to reach him.
I feel like hollow Knight's art direction is too strong 🤔 perhaps using that online map thing and you only see a tiny part of the room and you have to place a pin on where you are on the like non-detailed map (ie the one in the map screen in game)
1:02:08 Bruh he actually said exactly what happened to me, when I first played the game, I didn't know shit, I just went straight to Mawlek, without dash, without vengeful spirit, nothing, just basically spawned and went straight to Mawlek, didn't know what I was doing and just discovered that hitting the spikes boosts you up, so it's no surprise that I almost dropped the game because of Mawlek, not only the boss was hard af, but I wasn't very skilled on the spike boost, so I died more to the spikes than to Mawlek, I was pissed, but I managed after like days trying, to beat Mawlek, the rest of the game was a ez after that ngl
"In Hollow Knight, your platform skills are never really tested." That's one thing I wish there was more of in Hollow Knight(though I'm actually not exactly sure how that would work/what it would look like.) I'm curious what Silksong will have in regards to platforming, especially whether or not they'll have a White Palace/PoP equivalent. I would actually love it if someone made an entire Celeste-like platforming game based on Hollow Kinght.
Thank you for your content, it’s really good, I really also wanna thank you cause you got me into speed running and I finally managed to get some runs going in any% and all skills, really thank you😄
New idea for video... 4 speedrunners race to finish the game first, but have to take a shot if they take a hit. All money to a charity like Mary's Meals (check them out, it's super good)
A randomization true ending (or preferred ending) mulitplayer race could be interesting. Basically same concept as the co-op, except you get items individually and you can just chill in a call spreading out throughout the map trying to locate items individually to see who can win first. Streams may have to be emote only though.
I'd be interested to see this mod against hunters but Fire starts with a 0 cost Hiveblood (after it's been fixed) and can't focus or bench unless equipping charms (maybe with some way to have him not regain masks from benching), and maybe, instead of it being time based, have it be that if a hunter is in the same room as him when he dies, he loses. That way he doesn't get screwed over by teleporting into Absolute Radiance but can't just escape losing by jumping into spikes with 1 mask before a hunter hits him.
1:10:07 *I was moving through various Hollow Knight videos and didn't realize who this was* but kept thinking of the channel Fireb0rn when you mentioned hunters chasing you at the beginning of the video. This donate audio actually made me pause and check the channel name. no wonder there's a combination of comfort and clever calmness to how you can talk with fans AND handle accidental teleports
I wanna see hunters vs. teleporting speedrunner, or teleporting hunters vs. teleporting speedrunner. Either way, you can only get one hit on an opponent at a time. Also you have to hope you don't accidentally teleport the speedrunner to a dreamer... so I guess perhaps it _would_ be better if the speedrunner can't teleport. It could be too big of an advantage. Teleporting hunters is still an advantage for the speedrunner though. So that would definitely still be interesting.
I got hollow knight for x mas and I must've gotten drunk that day as well (I turned 18 a couple days before) and I must have watched you videos while drunk and I woke up the next morning to only see your HK videos shown to me and I have beed watching your videos since
Watching the mantis lords fight gave me flashbacks, my second boss that I beat on radiant was mantis lords (first was hornet protector bc I was seeing what radiant difficulty was and didn't know and was like "oh cool I beat it hitless, what did radiant difficulty do then?" So I did mantis lords on ascended then radiant and was like ohhhhhhhhhhh
The bone from Skul is also good. My favorite combo is the lightning whips with bleed and slowed for longer and Infantry Bow with a freeze and increased crit damage Turret with increased damage to rooted enemies and bleed and Wolf Trap with poison cloud and freezes enemies when destroyed the Frostbite mutation that makes it so when an enemy is slowed they take dps an amulet that either creates a poison cloud when hit or gives extra jumps depending on stuff
I started a new hollow knight save a few weeks back. Currently on 109% and I did the brooding mirelurk very early game accidentally. Didn't realize where I was going, had been that long since I played.
no shame in that. Especially if you tackled the broody mawlek in early game, it has like... a really big health pool for base nail, even with VS and soul catcher.
You can actually get to nail smith without claw, if you haven't upgraded the nail yet. You can pogo the flying mob I just did it in a randomizer run two days ago. Only works for the first nail upgrade though because you have to pogo twice.
1:02:19 yeah, on my first time playing the game I got to mawlek even before getting VS IIRC and that wasn't necessarily a fun time, it took a good amount of tries to say the least :D
I've recently started playing Hollow Knight again, inspired by some of Your vids. Though I played casual modded run. So nothing like challenges, just modified gameplay. Also I've seen this mod too and now TH-cam recommend me this old video of Yours, lol. Must be fun, I love Your runs. Hornet trolled fire, the best thing that could happen, ngl 😂 I knew this run would be fun and the beginning is already amazing 😂 Don't worry, I think everyone knows how awkward City of Tears without claw would be, even if most of people will never experience that in their runs. It's pretty mid-late game location with so many paths that need various abilities, even double jump, yet You don't have even a cloak. Tbh, this mod is nice, but for people who are not super good at game, like doing stuff without required abilities, You can always enable two basic abilities via debug mode, i.e. start with claw and cloak. It would still be fun being teleported every time You get hit. You were teleported to close room already third time. In the Kingdom's Edge, in the city of Tears and now in the Queen Station. I don't know, but it's either weird RNG or the mod has a chance of teleport You close by. 25:45 Lmao, You were teleported to Hornet Jail. Room rando + teleport rando + item rando when? Ironically, Gruz Mother, the easiest boss is too much RNG so it's harder to do hitless. Lmao. Lmao, on the way to Monomon, You get telported to Lurien. Neat xD Superchat: A Oh. Hiveblood doesn't work, because when You are teleported, Your state with one less mask is saved and it's like being loaded in different room... Interesting. Everytime fire says what he's gonna do, he's getting hit in a moment 😂 1:11:00 Herrah woke up to visit a fridge, because she's gotten hungry. 1:28:35 Wow, that looks like You were in space. I think You could have gone through the Watcher Knights arena last time, because maybe it needs to trigger first by being at the left side, then on the right side. I mean, it might get triggered by getting to the left side of the arena first, then on the right side. And because You were on the right side first and then went to the left, it only counted the left side. Then after You got teleported here second time, You triggered right side immediatelly. I guess? You fighting Broken Vessel and Lost Kin make it look like they are so easy. They are always giving me a hard time. I think the hardest boss after NKG, regular Grimm, powered Zote and powered White Defender, when they are getting super strong after beating them few times. Not counting Pantheon bosses. 1:51:05 I actually managed to do this skip myself in first try, even though I am *very bad* at White Palace. I never finished the whole properly, without help of invincibility when needed, because there are moments that are too pixel perfect for me. I always try to do this legitimately, but when I come to the moments that are just impossible to do, that I don't even know how to properly do them (and I tried)... I just give up and help... Like... it's extreme difficulty spike. Or difficulty sawblade. The game is pretty easy, have some harder bosses, but... White Palace... It scares me. Lol the big hopper got stuck in the spikes. I never seen anything like this before 😂 Lol, that rando mode really wants You to finish the Failed Champion.
Lol anyone else go straight to Mawlek in every new account? Once I figured out how to pogo the spikes I just decided to always do it immediately so I could save time
Alternative title: Hollow Knight but if my skin even touches any other living being my atoms are transported to somewhere else in the kingdom known as Hallownest

I respect Fireb0rn so much man.
That room in godhome was the god tuners workshop
3:13 "im pretty Rusty" :D no pun intended
Watching the mantis lords fight gave me flashbacks, my second boss that I beat on radiant was mantis lords (first was hornet protector bc I was seeing what radiant difficulty was and didn't know and was like "oh cool I beat it hitless, what did radiant difficulty do then?" So I did mantis lords on ascended then radiant and was like ohhhhhhhhhhh
Dead Cells: I played the new update today, nail is literally the only melee weapon I use now. It's very good, and I'm decent at Dead Cells I think.
The bone from Skul is also good.
My favorite combo is the lightning whips with bleed and slowed for longer and Infantry Bow with a freeze and increased crit damage
Turret with increased damage to rooted enemies and bleed and Wolf Trap with poison cloud and freezes enemies when destroyed
the Frostbite mutation that makes it so when an enemy is slowed they take dps
an amulet that either creates a poison cloud when hit or gives extra jumps depending on stuff
I came right after it ends huh... Should have seen it coming XD
Same
Now this is true punishment to train for a hitless run.
Mawlek with nothing was my introduction to this game, I didn't think to go back to it later or anything I just powered through
I started a new hollow knight save a few weeks back. Currently on 109% and I did the brooding mirelurk very early game accidentally. Didn't realize where I was going, had been that long since I played.
Fire thank you so much! I have covid right now, and your videos are really keeping me going! thanks again and keep up the good work.
i think having a number of save and quits that only replenish when you get certain milestones could be interesting
2:38:37 congrats on finally beating steel soul.
I wish I felt as chill about anything as FireBorn feels about playing Hollow Knight
I just realized he basically has to do all bosses on radiant
Why do you need Crystal Heart for Shade Cloak? I thought you could swim in the abyss after the lighthouse is turned on.
Ikr
speed
you cant
@@realtag846 I know you can be in the water, is the right edge too high?
@@lukes.3679 yep
Imagine warping through all map to finally do shade skip to resting grounds
Subbed for the quality of this run.
Almost half way done with my first playthrough with hollow knight and im ashamed to say Brooding mawlek was harder for me then hornet 2
no shame in that. Especially if you tackled the broody mawlek in early game, it has like... a really big health pool for base nail, even with VS and soul catcher.
Man same
I fell asleep while I was watching this. When I woke up I had no idea what was going on.
i love watching fire while i play, him talking helps da adhd
You can actually get to nail smith without claw, if you haven't upgraded the nail yet. You can pogo the flying mob I just did it in a randomizer run two days ago. Only works for the first nail upgrade though because you have to pogo twice.
5:37 that was a perfect timing donation lol
thumbnail made me think it is some theory video cus those 2 enemys look like before evolving and after evolving
I feel cursed. I’ve witnessed fireb0rn save a grub…
Bro I never even knew the watcher knights backrolled and I've played this game for like 2 years what
2:19:44 hmm the charms make an interesting diagonal pattern there, at least the left ones, almost the right side too tho
1:02:19 yeah, on my first time playing the game I got to mawlek even before getting VS IIRC and that wasn't necessarily a fun time, it took a good amount of tries to say the least :D
I’ve started going to mawlek as soon as I can and it’s definitely a weird fight when done so early
it's kinda funny because i didnt even find mawlek until after i got wings 💀
I've recently started playing Hollow Knight again, inspired by some of Your vids. Though I played casual modded run. So nothing like challenges, just modified gameplay. Also I've seen this mod too and now TH-cam recommend me this old video of Yours, lol. Must be fun, I love Your runs.
Hornet trolled fire, the best thing that could happen, ngl 😂 I knew this run would be fun and the beginning is already amazing 😂
Don't worry, I think everyone knows how awkward City of Tears without claw would be, even if most of people will never experience that in their runs. It's pretty mid-late game location with so many paths that need various abilities, even double jump, yet You don't have even a cloak.
Tbh, this mod is nice, but for people who are not super good at game, like doing stuff without required abilities, You can always enable two basic abilities via debug mode, i.e. start with claw and cloak. It would still be fun being teleported every time You get hit.
You were teleported to close room already third time. In the Kingdom's Edge, in the city of Tears and now in the Queen Station. I don't know, but it's either weird RNG or the mod has a chance of teleport You close by.
25:45 Lmao, You were teleported to Hornet Jail.
Room rando + teleport rando + item rando when?
Ironically, Gruz Mother, the easiest boss is too much RNG so it's harder to do hitless. Lmao.
Lmao, on the way to Monomon, You get telported to Lurien. Neat xD
Superchat: A
Oh. Hiveblood doesn't work, because when You are teleported, Your state with one less mask is saved and it's like being loaded in different room... Interesting.
Everytime fire says what he's gonna do, he's getting hit in a moment 😂
1:11:00 Herrah woke up to visit a fridge, because she's gotten hungry.
1:28:35 Wow, that looks like You were in space.
I think You could have gone through the Watcher Knights arena last time, because maybe it needs to trigger first by being at the left side, then on the right side. I mean, it might get triggered by getting to the left side of the arena first, then on the right side. And because You were on the right side first and then went to the left, it only counted the left side. Then after You got teleported here second time, You triggered right side immediatelly. I guess?
You fighting Broken Vessel and Lost Kin make it look like they are so easy. They are always giving me a hard time. I think the hardest boss after NKG, regular Grimm, powered Zote and powered White Defender, when they are getting super strong after beating them few times. Not counting Pantheon bosses.
1:51:05 I actually managed to do this skip myself in first try, even though I am *very bad* at White Palace. I never finished the whole properly, without help of invincibility when needed, because there are moments that are too pixel perfect for me. I always try to do this legitimately, but when I come to the moments that are just impossible to do, that I don't even know how to properly do them (and I tried)... I just give up and help... Like... it's extreme difficulty spike. Or difficulty sawblade. The game is pretty easy, have some harder bosses, but... White Palace... It scares me.
Lol the big hopper got stuck in the spikes. I never seen anything like this before 😂
Lol, that rando mode really wants You to finish the Failed Champion.
20:35 the mad lad spent 2 pounds to rickroll us all and succeeded
Lol anyone else go straight to Mawlek in every new account? Once I figured out how to pogo the spikes I just decided to always do it immediately so I could save time
I feel like you lose more time to the fight than you do for returning later.
@@bridgeseller7004 maybe, but I also hate backtracking so I just do it there
You are the best hollow knight content creator you really deserve more subscribers
I don’t remember commenting this but ok.
But you did
Its actually hard to see void kitty because it just blends with the background
Glass Soul Players: "You don't just reset the game?"
Watching you play made my download hollow knight
Very good content. Loved it, happy holidays
Watching this for the first time just now. Some of these teleports are totally paid actors!
“I’m pretty rusty”
Then proceeds to be more skilled than I could ever dream of :P
Nice idea to use Steel soul mode for this video . GGs for you
Ok, another thing I want to do: get to godhome in randomiser and do absolute radiance hitless
Fury of fallen will be really good in this challenge
Alternative title: Hollow Knight but if my skin even touches any other living being my atoms are transported to somewhere else in the kingdom known as Hallownest
Seeing there is a hidden pathway to my least favorite part of white palace somewhat pisses me off and make me happy that I don't need to do it.
