The amount of effort you put into these videos really shows. The comedy and the eddits are spectacular and its just a joy to watch. Fantastic work mate.
Calling hoppers ads is the most accurate description of anything ever. Would like to see a guide to Deepnest or Isma's tear guide. (even though I'm already done with the game, these vids are fun.) Edit: You could also do a guide to the coloseum trials, since it could help people with geo farming.
Hilarious video as always! I have never really had much trouble with the flower quest actually. I did it on the 2nd try, after having backtracked from the grave and killed everything in my path. Since big enemies don't respawn unless you sit at a bench, I only had to deal with small things, so it wasn't really hard. Flower quest is more about preparation and planning your path ahead if you don't trust your skills. Anyone else uses the planning technique?
Fun fact. If you bench in the station in queens garden. You can pick up the flower and then quite the game. This makes it that when you start the save you will have the flower and will spawn on the bench right next to where you have to put the flower
I see that quest as more of a quest you do once you’ve got all the power ups and charms so that you can use sharp shade, long nail, and fast nail to make things easier ( if you don’t know the sharp shade makes you dash a little further so it can help you dash threw the zombies with ought taking damage if you time it well)
The only reason i watch these videos is because of that "part x" voice. Also, I am an M. Also I have finished everything there is to do in hollow knight, so ya, I really really love that voice and am a total M.
If you wanna cheese it, you can first set a dream gate at the grey mourner’s place (don’t get the flower) bench near wherever you want to give the flower, then dream gate back to grey mourner, get the flower, save quit, and then reload the file, walk the minuscule distance left, (which considering what’s left for the actual flower quest, might pose a challenge for you lot, not you windy, you’re doing great). And flower quest done, easy. Note if you don’t have or don’t want to use dream gate, just walk to the grey mourner and don’t bench anywhere. Dream gate makes it way faster tho.
Honestly, is there even one person here who has never completed the game (or watched a whole playthrough)? 😂 I mean, if I were a new player and didn't know anything about the game I couldn't even remotely follow this guide 😂
I played through a decent chunk of the game before losing like 7k geo to dying with an existing shade which made me restart the game in rage, at which point I used the guides to get back to speed.

Quick tip: The flower dosn't get destroied when you bench warp ( quit out , so you respawn at the last bench you rested ) Most of the NPCs that have an interaction with the flower are near a bench , there is a station rigth above the grave (Traidor's Child) , dirtmoth's bench (Elder Bug) and near Oro's hut
I have a lot of Time in this game and still trying to get better, Your videos are entertaining and helpful for those that need the help. Keep up the amazing work!
step 1: murder all the bullshit on the way to the grave step 2: walk to the lazy bug and accept the flower step 3: make it all the way to the grave map Step 4: fail the dash and fall in the spikes ...
Instructions unclear. Accidentally unlocked godhome, cleared all of the pantheons, and gave the flower to the godseeker.
@Laylaybug1 you... Do know that you give the flover to the godseeker OUTSIDE of godhome
You still need to do up to (the knight i think?) in order to wake the big godseeker up enough to gift

Why did I never think of that
Eh, it’s fine. I did it second try on my first play through and never failed again after that. Don’t really want to waste that much time =_=
I think they made it so collecting the flower resets enemies because this never worked for me
@@matthewdossantos1414 Collecting the flower doesn't reset the enemies. Benching does. Don't bench. Not like you need to heal, right?
Or cheese it by benching super close to your destination, then getting the flower and save-quitting.
More advice would be to leave a dream gate at the gray mourner so when your flower inevitably breaks you can easily get back
no. bench at mourner. if it breaks, quit out to menu, and go back into the game. you'll be at the bench.
But if u do bench doesn’t it respawn the enemies u killled?
