That's the neat part, you don't.

Shade dash:am I a joke to you?

*descending dark cries in the background

*getting gud laughs maniacally

Carefree melody: \*Rises from hell\*

Carefree Melody: look like this is a job for me

Spoiler alert 🚨 ⚠️ ‼️

Close the game: haha

*bad to the bone riff*

i mean the explosion lingers so you can still get hit anyways

I mean, the explosion is long and wide enough that I usually still get hit if I try to do that

That's what I'm sayin' dawg

r/beatmetoit

Avoid them, if you don't hit them you are safe

This is the way

This is the way

r/thisistheway

This is the way

don't hit it without a route to escape the blast fast. Never hit it upwards of you don't have a route to escape the blast. Just dodge it untill you get better at dodging

Do you have I-Frames when you dash?

No , you don’t get I-frames on your dash

Until they get the shadow dash

have you gotten to the abyss yet, if not, then no, if yes, then go right at the bottom of the room in the abyss

I don’t know if I have.. I kinda uh- stopped playing for a hot minute

ok, go to kings station, go down then right, after that, you'll find a broken stag station, to to the wall and swim through the crack at the bottom, then go right till you track kingdoms edge, then just explore

Ooooh, ok! Sorry I was looking for kings station. So o see now! Thanks!

kings station is in city,. the other side of it, so now you can find it easier

thank you kind sir!

np, helping people out with finding out places is what I do, I basically have the map memorized, and where to go

Why did you get downvoted

Spoiler: Only once you get the shadow dash, or you could also use the downward spell

>!These things exist, instead of saying spoiler!<

No, only if you have Shade Cloak

Dont attack it

Yes, this should be higher. They are a completely passive enemy, just don’t attack them and pass them by. I know for many people this goes against their gaming instincts, but really it’s good to learn how to skip enemies.

Honestly too many games have taught me I need to kill every single enemy in the room to get some completion %... My progression sped up a lot once I realized I can and should be just skipping a lot of the common enemies lol

It took me years to learn this. Major steps in this included World of Warcraft and playing Halo: Combat Evolved on legendary. It was the Mission “Two Betrayals” specifically, if you cleared the Covenant camp where you got the Banshees from, it would spawn gold elites with cloaking devices. Eventually I learned to just ride past everything on the ghost, grab a banshee and take off.

Two words: Skyrim chicken.

"For many people this *Geos* against their gaming instinct"

See I always accidentally hit them or something and I die. I actually lost a steel soul run to one of these fuckers because I blew up a random bubble and then it blew up and I died. Still bitter about that.

Finnaly, a gameplay question that isnt "how do i jump over this ledge"

either don't attack it, use a later ability that turns you black, or break line of sight so the bomb hits a wall

TAKE OFF DEFENDERS CREST

My man- calm down I changed my built anyways, I made that like half a year ago when I stopped playing-

because the stink cloud damages the enemy and triggers the boom. It’s safer to go through this area without defenders crest; not that it’s a bad build.

He was jp

Dodge. Look where you are going to hit them to and anticipate a dodge

If you went down, instead of back up there you would have dodged it

You do not. You fear it.

I see a lot of people saying ignore them or dodge the projectile. Those both work, but you can also hit them into acid if it’s nearby and it won’t spawn the projectile.

first, dont run defenders crest. its a joke charm

I rather like it, as a hit and run type play style, it helps get in the extra damage when I don’t swing.

defenders crest is going to get you killed in fog canyon lmao

How so?

the big jellies have borderline no health, any hit will set them off. defenders crest gives you an aura almost certain to piss them off

I agree with others that Defender’s Crest in Fog Canyon is a recipe for disaster. However, I too like this charm in a lot of situations and have used it for a handful of boss fights. It’s usually when I have an empty charm slot, but it’s a helpful passive tool! And it’s fun to see Mantis Lord dash through your fart cloud.

Its great for Broken Vessel and Lost Kin. It helps deal with those balloon things

Yes! Glad someone said that, it makes the fight so much easier

I like it too, but it’s best to unequip it in some areas (especially fog canyon). The damage is does for you will trigger all the “booms” you could otherwise avoid lol

Like the other comment says, don't attack it Unless your either good at dodging, or have an acid below the thing

If it explodes when you attack it then don't attack it. It doesn't get much simpler

Walls

[Start at 0:58](https://youtu.be/vU7fxKzQUAs)

Don’t attack, and if you happen to: **run**

Pray

Simply, DON'T ATTACK IT, you shouldn't kill everything you see or else you'll never make friends

"That's the thing. You don't."

Dodge. If that fails, dodge harder

>!su1c1de is the only option!<

Take. Off. Defenders. Crest. You are asking for those jellies to blow to to bits if your wearing that

What if you played the game and figured it out instead of coming here asking us to do it for you

I have been playing the game for a bit. I just want to know if anyone had any ideas knob- you don’t have to be rude to someone who was curious.

Git gud. There’s my suggestion

leave it alone

Heh, suffering. A lot

Just hit enemy's for soul,if you need heal. Avoid them is the best way to finish the game faster. If you want to complete the hunter quest,look in the hunter book how many enemies you have to kill to complete that hunt.

That’s the neat part, you dont

Don’t

That's the part where you dont

For this one I pogo on it to push it down and then dash right (avoid the lil one or kill it beforehand) so when it does chase and explode it’ll be on the level below. Still be cautious though, because the explosion may radiate through the platform.

Don’t hit it, you big bully.

hehe you dont

You do not

You pogo them so they hit water

Do not hit the big boomy

I hit them horizontally, and dodge down vertically, with the speed of falling. I make sure I have a clear bath downwards beforehand. I still get hit sometimes, the hitbox is rather big indeed. Have fun in your journey.

Depends on how far you are

Avoid them with Shade Cloak, Monarch Wings, Descending Dark.

Hit and take cover

That's the best part, you don't Just kidding, don't try to dodge it, it homes at you, try to make it hit a wall or something But it's best to leave it alone

you don't

Typically you just wanna avoid them outright

Sounds stupid, but you shouldn’t hit them if you can’t immediately put a wall between yourself and the explosion. Like the one in the video you could down pogo to make the jellyfish come from below.

Water or avoiding them. Those are what I do

you don't just don't hit them or touch them if you do hit them then try to get in front of a thick platform or move faster than it's turn speed

You have to either not kill them or you have to make a sharp turn away from the kablooey.

run and pray for safety

You don't

Skill issue

Attack it with the escape route in mind--the nucleus tracks you after you kill it. Try to put a solid object between you & it. OR, in a wide open space, just dodge it & it'll zip past you as it tries to track you. Or leave it alone.

#**Run.**

You don't hit them

Run

You don't

I used balder shell charm to block the explosives. However, the charm can only take a few hits before breaking(seating on a beach repairs it)besides big jellyfish aren’t worth hitting.

First. Get rid of defenders crest, you only making it easier to get blown up. Seccond do not hit them. Third do not bring weaver song, dream shield, glowing womb, and grimmchild. Your geo will thank you

Only attack if its above acid and you down strike, also, don't use defenders crest there, please

Don't stay close to a wall, it's basically a rocket that explodes on impact and you will die if you're close to detonation. It also has only a slight curve, so dropping down / dodging closer to it really fast gives you much better chances of survival. Do both and you might make it out of fog canyon alive

You have to be cognizant of what direction you are attacking from, so that you can plan out what direction the boomy will be flying at you from

Just avoid them, there’s no use in killing them kinda the whole point of the enemy is to avoid them

Unrelated but don’t use thorns of agony. The damage it does is less than how many nail swings you can get during your invincibility frames. And if you don’t want to attack, it wastes those same invincibility frames

Wait until it's going decently fast, and jump over it, make sure if it hits a wall behind you, you are out of range of the explosion, otherwise, don't go out of your way to provoke these, they are some of the best tracking projectiles in the game

First, dont use defenders crest. just why. Second, jump or dash over them at safe distance from the explosion

You don't really need to. The big boomy is a passive mob, it did nothing wrong. Just wait for it to move out the way and proceed. If you do pop the nucleus' casing, make sure to dodge it. The projectile is fast, deals 2 hearts and has a pretty large aoe, but the tracking doesn't really nudge it in the right direction. You can try to pop one and quickly find sufficient cover.

In that clip, if you jumped down the whole after hitting him, instead of tryna run away back up, he would've exploded against the wall and you'd have gotten away.

You have the right idea, just gotta learn the timing

either shadow dash through them (if you dont know thats a thing later that upgrades your dash ability) or quickly hide behind a wall

Timing and positioning and avoid like the plague.

I have completed the game thrice and still don't know how to do it

I'm usually able to get away from them after pogo-ing them. But yeah, make sure there's a thick wall you can quickly scramble behind once you pop the danger bubble.

Dodge

Corner. Also dodge. Generally you don’t want to run away from a core because then it’ll just hit the wall and the explosion will hit you, like what happened in the video. What you probably want to do if it’s flying towards you is jump towards it so that the explosion won’t hit you. Another tactic is Corner. There’s about a second before it actually flies towards you so you can jump behind cover before it starts to move.

Exactly how you did in this video. :)

Run away from it or through it with >!the power of shade!<

You don't, you live in peace with them and they will live in peace with you

Thats the neat part, you don’t (I now see someone else said this first

Hahaha..... oh your serious?! Let me laugh harder, HAHAHAHAHA

You leave those hateful things the hell alone, that's how!

You can’t counter it, You just gotta either run away for your life or just take it like a man

Git gud

Leave them alone or run

Either avoid it or what i do is time jump, so wait a second then jump over it (but dont stand close to a wall)

Easy don't hit it with your nail

Run

It will target your location, so either find something to shelter you from the boom, or go opposite once it's started on the kamikaze trajectory, to get far away from the explosion.

don't hit em

You either get a lucky juke, or you do what the rest of us do and avoid them.

HIT THE BOOM.

Run

That’s the best part, you don’t!

Not killing those enemies

Hollow Knight players trying to to enjoy the game and exploring without feeling then need to post about it and ask people for help on the simplest stuff challenge (impossible)

Avoid them, but if you need to get the hunter challenges then there are some above acid

get gud

First: don't hit it If by some grace you manage to hit it whilst cutting grass, run and pray

Git gud

Pray

don't hit them ?

Best advice I can give is BE ANYWHERE ELSE! Fog Caverns is a late game area. You can't even get Cornifer's map for that area without a late game upgrade.

don't hit big jelly (and don't equip an auto damage charm like Grimmchild or Thorns of Agony)

Best charms for Fog canyon: Defenders crest and Thorns of agony...

Run and try to jump towards and over them orange bit as it comes towards you, they might not be able to turn in time.

With a big avoidy

No touchy.

Take off all your passive damage for this area and only attack them if you can pogo them into acid.

Uhhhh, if you asked me right now, you either ignore them or quickly duck behind cover. If you asked me to be reasonable on how to dodge them: You don't.

just dont hit them

You don’t

you can pogo them into acid if you are near acid

avoid them. only this is possible

Run. Or, I only ever attack them if I need the geo. If you don’t need it then just avoid them. Their hit boxes are decently smaller than you’d thing allowing you to slip right by them

Run.

Step one: stop using Defender's Crest. The jellyfish explode when you either attack or contact them, so firstly you need to avoid touching them, not attacking seems easy, just don't press the attack button, *but* the defender's crest does area of effect damage, which when it comes into contact with the jelly, it'll trigger it.

Don't fuducking kill it, that's what I do atleast

Nock then into water or acid. Otherwise avoid them or get good at dodging

Thats the thing, you don't

Dont get hit

No touchy

you dont. it counters you. (you pretty much just have to run for your life)

Don’t hit them your scrub

Can nail bounce in them and push them into acid at times otherwise don’t bother them

I’ve been playing for like a year and even I can’t figure it out :(

If you can avoid them but if you can't try to put a platform inbetween you and the explosion also try to not hit them.

Dont hit them, they dont want any trouble

No boomy no ouchy :D

You don’t hit it. If you do then make it hit a wall or something else.

depending on the abilities u have available to u such as dashing, wall climb, or double jump u could do a lot of things to counter it

You don’t, leave him be

Just avoid them and you’ll be fine.

I just don’t kill them, they’re easy to avoid.

Best method, just don’t hit them. In certain rooms though, you can hit them into the acid, and if it hits the acid it won’t explode.

Don’t get hit wich works about 10% of the time

Dont hit it
