On Thursday, Chinese player Remto uploaded his own harmless video (r5ab, known in China as r45) on station B to challenge the four-item binding full lock of the "Hollow Knight" Holy Nest Pantheon.
This is the first time since the Release of the Hollow Knight Questers update went live on August 23, 2018, that a player has achieved this feat, which was previously considered nearly impossible.
In the Hollow Knight "Quester" update, players can travel to the Pantheon to challenge the nest gods and achieve the "Embrace the Void" ending.
The Pantheon is divided into five doors, each of which contains an enhanced version of a series of boss battles that have been previously challenged, and the most difficult fifth door, the Holy Nest Pantheon, requires the defeat of 42 bosses in a row, so this mode is also a pattern that speed players have been constantly challenging.
In addition to the five challenges, the game also provides four ability bindings, often called "four locks", namely bone nail binding, shell binding, soul binding, and talisman bondage, which will limit the player's bone nail damage to 13 points, the maximum mask health is reduced to 4 blocks, the soul container can accumulate soul to 33% (only enough for one spell cast), and no talismans (such as fragile power, etc.) can be equipped.
Well-known Hollow Knight speedpass player Fireb0rn (currently No Major Glitches No. 9, 112% All Pantheon Bosses No. 12) also commented on the video for the first time, saying:
1. In the case of four locks, it is necessary to rely heavily on spell skills, and because the capacity of the soul container is only enough for one spell cast, it is necessary to slash three times after each cast to accumulate the soul, plus the bone nail damage is only the lowest 13, so it will drag out very long compared to the conventional speed pass time, and the fault tolerance rate in the case of not being able to kill the boss is relatively low;
2. Remto, who often uses whirlwind slashing when the new boss appears, dares to use the abyss scream to fight some floating bosses, and is also quite calm when fighting with the fighting sister and the great bone nail sage Slay, the judgment of the situation is very accurate, it can be seen that he is quite confident in his own operation, and there are not many dangerous scenes, and he often dares to fight, which is convincing.
After hearing the news, a large number of "Hollow Knight" players at home and abroad also offered congratulations to Remto who achieved this feat. The realization of this achievement can be imagined without lasting enthusiasm and patience, as well as talent and hard work. Perhaps as the player above said in the comment below the video, "I think this is probably love".
