These guys are predominantly flyers, but a lot of the mobs in Deepnest also qualify. Engaging these guys usually isn’t a problem, because you can usually bug out and heal if the going gets tough. Short range aggro are enemies that will react to your presence in a moribund way – you basic husks, guards, rich bugs, ground-mantises, etc. Mobile hazards are enemies that crawl on a set path and which don’t really react to your presence. Short range aggro, long-distance aggro, and mobile hazards. Yes, even when fighting Primal Aspids – the things don’t actually shoot at where you are, but where you will be, so dodge only a few pixels, and the attack will always miss unless you screwed up the timing, and god into its face.īut, okay, more seriously, there are 3 types of enemy in the game. The first thing that you have to keep in mind is that spells are a lie.

Nothing I say below will help you more than that advice, because that advice is enough to turn SS into a normal playthrough in terms of completion difficulty. If you’re using save-quit, then just quit at two masks for 1-mask bosses, or 3/4 masks for 2-mask bosses, and your success at Steel Soul is all but guaranteed just from that. If you won’t, then you really don’t need this guide. If you’re reading this guide, I hope that you’ll forswear the save-quit method. Not if you keep you head, play things safe, and … atually, there is no third part. The world in Hollow Knight isn’t really lethal.

The “trick” here, was that not needing to walk back to the bossroom over and over again from a bench made even my totally non-optimized playthough fast enough for that to be easy.Īh, and, for whatever reason, Steel Heart, which is the achievement you get for having a Steel Soul run at 100% or higher is a rare achievement. I casually played through my SS run, and finished at 89% with a comfortable 4 hour margin to get those last 11% of completion to get SC. Beyond that, the benchquit style makes getting an ancillary achievement – Speed Completion – a pain in the♥♥♥♥♥- it shouldn’t be.
