Hollow Knight: Difference between revisions

- If you're having trouble with an enemy, try jumping and slashing downward. This also refreshes jump abilities, and is a necessary skill by midgame.

- Don't worry too much about any Geo you lose by dying, you'll have plenty by the end and it's easy enough to grind for it if you really need to.

- You can't miss anything that counts towards 100% completion, but you can miss some enemy journals. If you're anywhere that seems ephemeral, make sure you get all available entries there.

- If you are going for 100%, the most obtuse charm can only be found <div class="spoiler">when you have 15 or more Blue Masks</div>.

- Experiment with different charms; very few of them are actually bad, some just don't suit certain playstyles. Some interact in interesting ways.

- You will want to use different charms when you're fighting bosses than when you're just exploring.

- The living have dreams too.

- You will lock yourself out of the first ending when you <div class="spoiler">transform the complete two-part charm into something else</div>, so if you want to see that ending, make sure to fight the final boss first. (You'll continue from outside the boss room when you reload.)

- Don't look up spoilers.
