I may just be bad at video games but is there a secret to beating the second arena fight, i need that pale ore for my final nail upgrade and I just keep getting owned by the time the big blue orb bugs start shooting me.

Just finished the white palace and now I'm at the black egg temple. Holy loving poo poo that was some kaizo mario romhack level bullshit. Anyone have any tips on fighting the true final boss because they murder me within seconds. I've got all charms and upgrades so if it's just a matter of get good then I may be hosed.

gently caress the White Palace. That was some mario romhack level bullshit. The trial of fools is manageable to a point. It's hard but it's combat and you actually have a say in it aside from "oh touched the edge of the spikes and spawned at the bottom of the room again, gently caress." That area actively soured me a bit on the rest of the game because it's like they completely forgot about basic loving level design principles and just tossed poo poo together like a third rate level designer.

As far as the colosseum of fools is concerned, max upgrades, all charms, use the stuff that makes you heal quick and gives you more soul.

imo the White Palace is good.

Imo you're so wrong. White palace was too much of a jump in difficulty from everything else in the game. I think they took it way too far in terms of the sheer amount of stuff you had to deal with, and how punishing the "checkpoints" were. I would have really preferred more benches and not starting from the bottom of sawblade shaft again and again and again.

I think we've played this game very differently. I don't even know where kingdom's edge is, and I've got loads of movement options.

Go to the right. All the way to the right. In the flooded king's station, at the bottom right flooded station platform, you can swim through a hidden tunnel, follow that til you reach the new area.,

I don't have swimming yet. Went back to check the areas I thought I'd cleared, so now I've just got to the area after mantis lords so I'm hoping I'll find it there :)

The area you have to swim through is not acidic. The hollow knight can swim in water in the city of tears without burning up, but the path you're on is a good start.

How can you use it to break sequence if you have to have been there to teleport back :psyduck:

Edit: gently caress Dream Zote.
