The nice thing about Path of Pain, as opposed to the rest of White Palace, is that there's only one section in which you are in actual danger of running out of soul (2:42) When I did PoP, it took me three days during which I couldn't close Hollow Knight or shut down my computer. I made it deathless all the way to the Kingsmoulds, then died to them because _my computer lagged as soon as they activated_
After I watched this video a few months ago, I attempted the Path Of Pain, so when you showed you had Sprintmaster and Dashmaster on, I thought that was a 'Good charms to use' tip. Yeah, well, I completed it, but I started it at 9PM and finished it at 3AM. Fun ;-;
I did 2 tries. First one took me 6+ hours, 3 of those were spent on the last section alone. Died to the kingsmolds. Second try was the next day, took me 2 hours for the whole thing.
Took me 10 hours but only because I died, killed Grimm for another notch, came back, got to the last room, then my PC crashed, took a short break, and did it again

pale king: *makes path of pain instead of helping the suffering city*
pale king: *yes*
The nice thing about Path of Pain, as opposed to the rest of White Palace, is that there's only one section in which you are in actual danger of running out of soul (2:42)
When I did PoP, it took me three days during which I couldn't close Hollow Knight or shut down my computer. I made it deathless all the way to the Kingsmoulds, then died to them because _my computer lagged as soon as they activated_
Thank you for this preview to my pain. I know what I'm going to be screaming about in a few days/weeks
The FitnessGram Pacer Test is a breeze compared to this saw palace.
Congratulations you just triggered a Vietnam flashback
1:41 The downward dash, I felt that
Dashmaster bad
the fact that the reward for this is just a 2 second cutscene is insane
Why would u use dAsH mAsTeR and not use *hiveblood?* and make sure u use wayward compass and gathering swarm
My life sucks because of wayard compass
hiveblood is useless in path of pain edit: nm ur memeing, carry on
@@bobbooty wha how is it useless? i got through it in 1 try bc of hiveblood, lol
@@bobbooty Hiveblood regenerates the last mask of damage taken.
There is nothing in PoP that does more than 1 mask of damage unless you OVERCHARM.
@@newagederpderp Yes but where's the part where you need hiveblood? There are infinite soul totems everywhere, just heal
when you pressed the soul bullet button instead of the dash button ( 6:20 ) i felt that
Royal Guard: “King, how many spikes and saws do you wan-
Pale King: Yes
If you have deep focus with BOTH grub charms you have enough soul to never ever die because u will get enough soul per hit
finally, someone who knows it. everybody prefer hiveblood, for some odd reason.
maybe they like waiting 10 seconds after each hit idk.
Why!?
Why would anyone make this torture!?
Why would any one subject themselves to this torture!?
Why am I subjecting myself to this torture!?
It's called the path of pain for a reason
music starts: Ah Shoot, Here we go Again.
Even though It wasn’t me playing i cheered when you got through it
After I watched this video a few months ago, I attempted the Path Of Pain, so when you showed you had Sprintmaster and Dashmaster on, I thought that was a 'Good charms to use' tip.
Yeah, well, I completed it, but I started it at 9PM and finished it at 3AM. Fun ;-;
2:41 when all you know is pain and buzzsaws

oh man, those b-sides were so fun. i finally burnt out when c-sides were introduced, but man what a great game
I love the little happy jumps at the end
Pale King: I don't know why no one really visits. :`(
The Palace:
I'm watching this with headphones, wish me luck.

OOF
Me too

I did and there was no problems

This makes Meat Boy's Bandage Girl Dark World levels look like Funky Kong mode.
Oh really? Maybe you don't know about dark world xd
@@nicolasmilano7251 I do, dark world bandage girl is what I meant.
@@FirionLeFleur Oh God xd
i love the bass boosted double damage sounds from the kingsmoulds
intense orchestra with random sudden jumpscares spliced in
for some reason the "i haven't gotten to this point before" was the most funniest part for me
2:56
*T R I G G E R E D*
my total hits were 443 and 2 death
actually, I died at the end of the pain path... TWICE
SO SAD
I have no idea how many hits I had, but it took me 4 hours to complete. 0 deaths but I very nearly died at the kingsmolds.
I did 2 tries. First one took me 6+ hours, 3 of those were spent on the last section alone. Died to the kingsmolds. Second try was the next day, took me 2 hours for the whole thing.
@@jjtomecek1623 4hs? 8 hours for me XD
Took me 10 hours but only because I died, killed Grimm for another notch, came back, got to the last room, then my PC crashed, took a short break, and did it again
I got the platforming sweats from just watching this. Awesome job dude!
I love how you can just feel that anger with just jumping
7:57 222 that was my pulse in this moment
MADLAD
man you were so close to the walls at one point during the end fight, that could've been tragic
also the little happy dance when it's over, very relatable
I can't believe you subjected yourself to this pain just for our entertainment. Mad respect
