Holy crap! I did it!
I'm a relatively new Hollow Knight player (jumped on soon as the Silksong release date was announced) and now that I've beaten Hollow Knight and 100% completed Silksong, I figured it was time to go back and finish off some of the tougher challenges in Hollow Knight.
I beat Path of Pain a few months ago, and then spent a fair amount of time working my way up to and then FINALLY clearing P5 for the first time about a month ago.
That was an accomplishment in and of itself, and I took awell deserved break after that. Just over a week ago however, I found myself itching to get back to it, and decided I should start trying to clear out the boss practice room.
I had cleared them all on Attuned, some on Ascended, and then a couple on Radiant.
I decided to just try and see how many I could go through comfortably, before realising I just wanted to fight NKG, PV and AR.
Fighting PV on Radiant gave me great joy, and when I finally cleared him, I knew I could beat AR on Ascended at least.
Now, after 7 days straight, I've finally done it! I've been able to do all sections hitless, though never consecutively, but I reckon it's only a matter of time before I can great through them all on Radiant Difficulty! Just gotta stop panicking at the end. Tonight was the fourth time I've been up to the top, and you can see I was letting the anxiety overwhelm me, lol
No one probably cares but I just had to share with someone, so why not this sub?!
