- Hollow Knight 'Hall of Gods - All Radiant' Challenge
I stream my challenges and more at 8:30pm PST: / delephantuno
Doc with everything found here: docs.google.co...
Ok so a lot of people are asking why I used grimmchild and it's simply because I had no idea it was garbage. I never looked up anything what were optimal charms and I just used stuff that felt good and because I hated using spells I never used any spell charms. I also am kind of a sucker for summons so when I saw there was a summon I just wanted to use it lol. I was roasted in twitch chat a couple of times for it so if you look at the document for like the last couple of bosses I used shaman stone. Hopefully this clears up some confusion!
Edit: Shaman stone instead of spell twister idk how I messed that up
I don't care about that You are true legend for doing this
I managed to beat my last boss on radiant today, AbsRad. Thereafter, I even went out to beat both the HK and the normal Radiance no hit. This was pure pain and torture…
Grimmchild the goat frfr 🔥🔥
This has the production quality of 100K subs, reach for the stars my dude
Fr
I genuinely thought that this was some popular channel I just hadn't seen until I saw this comment and the sub count
What about this is worth 100k, just a genuine question
@@unmeiidesu the mic quality is good, the editing is very cohesive and aligns with what he’s talking about, and his script writing with building a story is clear and appealing. All in all just a solid well put together, enjoyable video.
@@therighteousuniverse1648 alright
No way he only has 200 subscribers, I watched the entire video fully expecting a sub count maching fireborns or bluesrs. Wow, your editing is absolutely amazing, i m leaving my mark here before you explode, my guy. keep up the great work!
Congrats on doing the warm up for P5 all bindings at once.
everyone is talking about how underrated this video is, but why is no one talking about GOOD FREAKING JOB THAT IS A CRAZY ACHEIVEMENT NICE.
TIME TO DO SILKSONG PANTHEON
Ima be honest man the second i heard his voice and the length of the video i was instantly in love ngl
This experience with hall of gods pretty much exactly mirrors my own. The sheer rush I felt upon finally beating abs rad fuels me on to this day where I know best radiant abs rad for fun (shocking I know). I’ve seen plenty of other videos on hall of gods but yours was definitely not only the most similar to my own, but also the most engaging in one. This was an absolute joy to watch and I can’t wait to see your other videos (:
As a wise spider once said, "GIT GUD!"
the moment I saw u using d dark against Mantis Lords I knew that was the issue because for some bosses using purely nail is just the best option. It was nice to see that u learned from your mistake.
I find using d dark makes mantis lords and sisters of battle easier if you chain them all in a row then wait till you have full soul again
@@_DevoidYoure objectively correct
thats just wrong lmao
@@bootycrums8092 real
@@_Devoid i mean for me personally i cannot do that cuz my brain just dies so just using nail is better for me
bro wouldnt have strugled with vengefly king if he only used spells and not GRIMMCHILD
17:00 the lesson to take away from this should not be that you should not use spells. The lesson you should have learned is that you need to learn WHEN to use spells on a boss. Every boss has different openings for when you can use spells and it is up to you the player to learn those openings.
This man is cracked at video creation
You have 300 subscribers but kept my attention longer than basically anyone with millions of subs could. Which is the entire video. It was awesome, great quality, you deserve way more subs
Just finished watching the whole video and just wow! For only 700 subscribers you’re absolutely amazing. The story woven into the gameplay, the commentary/voice over, the editing and everything else put into this video made it really enjoyable to watch. You’ve definitely earned a subscriber and hopefully many more. This video made me want to go back to Hollow Knight to finish all the radiant bosses. I just have Radiance left, and I’m trying my best to beat it. But anyways, this video was absolutely (hall of) godlike.
It's unreal what small channels can do, I thought he had thousands of subs,
Keep up the good work! 👍
I genuinely thought this guy would have so many videos but I was shocked the quality is amazing I can not stop rewatching the whole video well done man love your work
in my opinion this is still one of the best hall of gods video ive seen i remember watching this video for the first time when it came out 6 months ago and i was so surprised that u ended up finishing this challenge so i started as well sadly i ended up quitting hollow knight cuz of school but i came back just to finish this challenge i saved markoth for last cuz hes definetly way harder than radiance and even pure vessel (at least in my case) and i rewatched this video cuz i wanted to see this vid again and tbh even though i alr watched this video the milestone u achieved by doing this is a milestone u should be proud of tbh anyways enough talking though idk what im saying at this point lmao but yea tbh best hall of gods video and i hope this challenge was fun for u :D (ik markoth wasnt im going through the pain myself so yea)
19:24 heavy blow's only valid usage EVER
12:34 after contacting five english teachers I still don’t know what he is saying…
Commenting to boost the algorithm on this because it is absolutely amazing. Mad respect to you I probably would have given up at vfk if I ever attempted radiant 😅😅
Replying to boost algorithm
This video is cute as hell reminds me of when i first played :) so happy people still get to experience so much joy from this game that brought me so much. Can't wait for silksong.
Tips for markoth:
While dodging, stay on the left or right wall.
Use nail arts for longer reach
Save soul for phase 2
Better tips:
Stay on the right wall, the left one allows blade spawns outside of the screen
Use nail arts to increase your range. If u can (P5) u should cast Vengeful Spirit twice right at the beginning
For Phase 2 use dashslashes for maximum range
im lazy rn
nail arts are such a game changer in this fight
@@Miss_Skooter Yeah
@@Miss_Skooter Yeah
Even BETTER tips for fighting Markoth
Don't
Really good quality content right here! Would love to see more videos about HK in the future!
How does this man only have 217 subs? The production is so good
I was expecting a few hundred thousand subscribers, not a few hundred. Keep making content and you will go places!
I’m your 300th subscriber. I have a feeling you’ll blow up soon
Great video. Well, everything but using grimmchild instead of spell twister lol
I just wanted to say how incredible of an accomplishment this is, it must have taken so much willpower. I really hope you get a lot of recognition from this vid, it was super high quality and your channel is amazing. I can honestly say I completely lost track of time watching this in a good way, and wanted to thank you for having an hour long positive impact on my day. You absolutely deserve every sub you have an (in my opinion) at least 200K more. Carry on being awesome dude, and making an entertaining and positive change in the world. I wish you the best of luck! :)
This channel is stupidly underrated
imagine Heavy blow helping with anything.
Hearing your story and journey to where you are made me realize that it is always too early to give up on anything. Mad respect!
congrats! i beat RadHoG a while ago, and P5EB recently, its a nice next step in challenge!
Congratulations!
I know how difficult this is, as it took me over three hundred hours in total to do this.
Also amazing video quality, keep up the good work!
I can tell how hard this challenge is because i have done it two times. Every time you defeated a hard boss i was so happy for you because i know how hard this is.
25:25 and with that we have finished the 3rd column.. LESS THEN HALF WAY THRU THE VIDEO
was not expecting to be this entertained, congrats on finishing it!
I just killed my final boss, Absolute Radiance, on radiant difficulty. Thank you for inspiring me :)
Nice!! I didn’t really do anything lol it was all you :)
criminally underrated channel and video, if you keep this level of quality you’ll definitely do well! all the best in your youtube journey
Bro said he figured out what was wrong and fucking WEAVED the mantises
You Deserve A million More Subscribers. Im Not Joking , The Video Quality is Out of This World
Don't know how you don't have more subs yet keep up the good work
I'm 100% sure you will grow. Your content is better than many million subscriber channels. Keep at it
We found him boys, the most underrated HK TH-camr
"3 quarter of the challenge is done" The video: Not even close to its half.
Ahh, yeah man. Here we fucking go
i completely understand the not playing for a long time, i showed up to HK at like idk, december 2023 and got it febuary 9 this year
As a fellow Radiant Completionist, I can say with 100% confidence that Markoth is the embodiment of inconsistency.
Pure Vessel, personally, went pretty much as you described. Easily manageable attacks that I have dodged previously with clinical ease, and yet get fucked up on for seemingly no rhyme or reason.
Obblibles
@@Nebulius_the_uuhhhh While Oblobbles do have inconsistency, they're easier to dodge more often than not once you actually do get a bit more practice into it, and you generally have good opportunities to strike.
Also helps that you actually have a floor.
@@ATSM_33 I haven’t beaten either yet
@@Nebulius_the_uuhhhh Just remember, mate. Keep trying no matter what.
Even if ya feel like smashing your controller. Literally anything within the bounds of the game is possible for anyone.
@@ATSM_33 I just unovercharmed because I couldn’t beat ascended then reovercharmed for radiant and beat it first try after failing ascended like 30 times
Wow he was able to find another specific use for heavy blow and this time it actually helps instead of with Mossy boy which isn't even that hard so this kind of gives a whole new perspective to things considering onlobles are one of the hardest bosses on radiant yeah I think it should be get out of e tier and move up to D
I just finished the same challange. With going through the same pain, I can releate even more.
This is actually so good!
this is insanely high quality on your way to 100k!!
I just discovered this channel and you are very talented, keep it up man you earned a sub!
Truly amazing video, never subscribed so quickly before.
He didn't go overcharmed on Radiant, what a Chad
I love ur videos(i know u only have 2 but the quality is amazing)
Amazing video! I swore you were one of the 100k+ hollow knight channels I just hadn't heard about. Doing radiant with grimmchild Is a pure form of masochism I'll never fathom, got a new sub tho
This deserves more than a like you got yourself a fan my guy
Impressive, honestly, I could never
I'm thinking of trying this challenge myself, the hardest gaming challenge I've attempted so far was beating sekiro with the demon bell and no kuro's charm, Isshin took me four hours over two days, but that wasn't anywhere near as hard as this seems, also I recently ragequit my 112% HK run because I couldn't beat pure vessel when I was right at the end of it all (111%) so I'm hesitant to open this pandora's box and unsure if I can trust myself to maintain the mental fortitude to see it to the end, skill isn't really what I'm worried about, even if I'm not good enough, I'll just get better, but staying motivated for things like this is the real struggle, and I don't wanna get to the end and spit on all my previous hard work again,
2:16 man this was genius
22:32 that isnt narcissism. That is somebody falling dor narcissism. Verry different.
this deserves waaaaayyyy more recognition then it got in 2 weeks because this whole video and hearing your struggles and rage was honestly motivation for me to try this challenge myself sometimes i may even get it and you took so much time with this and just that deserves more views
Gotta leave a mark before the channel blows up, pin me.
I’ll pin for now but I can’t guarantee it’ll stay forever :)
herm
hahah the obbolobles part was really funny
the quality on narration and edition is just delightful. I am at a loss of words, this is beatiful and so engaging I just don't want to miss any second of this
you got really lucky with gpz, he’s one of the last 2 i have to beat radiant
Most underrated channel ever, no doubt.
they shoudve given radiance a full body hitbox for extra pain
Love your style and how you present the video! keep going champ!
I wanna see the full unedited uncut version of the torture lmao
#shamelesspromo incoming BUT if you really want to see it I have everything saved on my twitch vod channel
@@delephantuno would love to lol, rn I’ve literally only been able to get up to nailsage sly in pantheon 3 and can only get past his first phase so I myself have suffered through lots of these, even trying to do radiant on a lot of the bosses but not managing to even do ascended on Markoth lol, would love to see someone else’s pain not in a sick way but someone I can relate to you know??
Definitely get it! I know for me I looked at others doing it as well, looking at any mistakes possible to be like "Oh so a human can do it as well" lol. Good luck!
Bro needs more subs this is awesome content
as a part of the hollow community i welcome u
Somehow hollow knight and both Ori games had all got by me and a cpl months ago played the Ori's and fell in love and after hearing about the similarities I went straight to hk and these are now 3 of my favorite games of all time lol
Having beat all the bosses radiant as well and sunk in over 200 hours in the game, I’m sure that in the end learning how to work without mark of pride and using both strength and shaman stone together with quick slash it is much more worth it in the long run. The faster you kill bosses the less chances they get of hitting you. Also use steady body. It’s the most op charm in the game that many people overlook.
This was my goto setup for much of endgame. In the end though I found that setup to be a bit too mid to beat Radience. It's a good general setup, but imo it's better to lean into either Nail or Magic, rather than trying to cover both bases.
I fully agree with everything else though, especially Steady Body being very underrated.
steady body? why not instead using all of that with spell twister?
Damn 200 hours that's fast for radhog
@@alil636 well in my experience steady body paired with Quickslash gives you soul extremely quickly (as you are not limited by the knockback effect that you have without steady body on) it also means that you can get more damage in a reduced time window. If you want more input from this look at Fireborn's video of all the charms ranked, and he further describes the great utility provided by steady body. At best it is actually dealing a higher dps, and at worst it gives similar effects than that of spell twister, albeit at a lower notch cost.
In no way am I saying spell twister is bad, but to me at this point id just prefer to stick to steady body considering it has a lower charm cost and works regardless of either a strength of spell build.
If you are going for an all out spell build, Shaman stone, Quickslash, spell twister, soul catcher, and steady body are a great combo and I suggest you run it.
@@paultapping9510 I would agree with you, but my view is more so looking at how speedrunners and TAS runs play against bosses and what builds they are using. There also tends to be many commonalities in both such as the use of steady body, and other DPS charms. On the other hand, I also think that using Grimchild is ofc really bad and look at the speedrunners and TAS as an example.
In the end its more just an aggressive playstyle of mine rather than an overall truth. This video alone is enough to show that you can beat all these bosses without them.
Also steady body goated
As someone who radiant all the bosses radiant was especially hard
I’d never do it again but congrats
The fact that you did this and only have 600 subs is just sad you deserve infinite subs
honestly gave me soupasta vibes when they did 1 slot battle cats. thats how you know they were losing it a bit while editing
Thanks for the dying knight giving me a volume warning 😂
(It actually helped 😊)
how the hell u only got 268 subs (at time of comment)
you deserve way more, such a good vidio
hell yeah dude I wanna try at this sometime, literally such a good watch too lmfao
ok how does this guy not have more subs this video quality is insane when i look that he only has 843 subs (as of now) i was flabbergasted people SUB TO THIS GUY NOW
Great job my man
I FEEL YOUR PAIN ON THE ORBS I DIED TO TEM SO MUCH BEATING RADIANCE
Funny, I find the orbs the easiest. It's the lasers that get me
holy shit they're actually using grimmchild unironically
the beam radiance kills you with in the climb phase is not rng
it is programed to be really off for the first half, and then expertly predict where you will be in the second bit
so avoiding usually means jumping really far the opposite way and dashing back towards the platform to bait the beam far away
Pain I'm currently stuck on zote and seeing you get it makes me a little jealous
Awesome! Maybe all bindings next?
Not sure. If anything I’ll be doing that whenever silksong releases. Surely that’s soon right???
@@delephantuno all bindings at once could be really show offy ngl but practicing bindings of all pantheons puts everything you learnt into much much deeper practice...idk man i do recommend it as the next big step for your hk journey...
Great quality video!! keep it upp
Great video. Im also trying to get Hall of Gods on Radiant and im stuck at Abs Rad :((
This guy is hella underrated, he deserves a lot more than 60
Subs
YO I DIDNT KNOW ABOUT THE ABSRAD SPIKES DISAPPEARING WITH DDARK TYSM
godspeed my guy
tbh for 50 subs ur a really good yt
[all of ur pain could have been avoided with sharp shadow]
I’m glad you enjoyed the video, thanks so much for the compliment! I wasn’t familiar with the charm so I just looked it up. I think maybe it would’ve helped with the oblobbles and Markoth but I’m not sure what else. I could be completely wrong though. It’s good information for the future so thanks for letting me know!
Sharp shadow does 21 dmg, with dashmaster 32 (same as nail and strength) but on itself it's only useful on dashing bosses, and really it is lne of the charms you are better off learning to not use, as it can create dependecy. Also on PV sometimes attacks are faster than dashes and you are just better off jumping.
The only two bosses as of now (P5AB clearer and R5 contender) I'd use ss on are watchers and failed champ. Itself it's an ok charm, but some people tend to overrate it and some to underrate it.
all bossew in hollow knight have a pattern, a discernible visual sign for when they're about to strike with one of their attacks, no matter how small it is and how little time you have to react, but Markoth. Markoth is completely random. he has no special attacks but randomness itself. his fight is just painful to get radiant and just not fun at all. even when i got prince Zote in radiant i had fun, no matter how hard it was, but with Markoth, it just makes you want to quit. it's truly one of the most unsatisfying and frustrating boss fights i've ever played.
This video is so insanely underrated!!
Why Grimmchild? And why not Shaman Stone?
And there is me stuck on traitor lord
I believe in you!
For the last faze you can just pogo and the balls will go out of the screen. I see everybody that plays this does that. The balls simply go past off screen and dissappear. Like when they get to this part, they start to celebrate cuz it's pretty much a no hit pogo fest. Don't even have to pogo that much. Great job for doing it a real way instead of the cheese
I love ur vids keep up the good work❤
i remeber when i do the radiant. it took me a week or so to beat the final boss
