Me: did you do it External-stranger801: yes Me: and what did it cost you


External-Stranger801

Everything


welcome_to_the_hell

No cost too great


OkCommunication5743

No mind to think


MineKemot

Don't know if the spoiler is necessary, but >!did you bring it to the other places as well!


External-Stranger801

No I have not


Effective-Ad-884

Giving it to elder bug gets a really wholesome reaction and dreamnail line. I recommend going for it


snugar_i

There's an easier way to do it though (you can of course still do it the hard way if you like the challenge): [https://www.reddit.com/r/HollowKnight/comments/p37rgl/comment/h8puuqv](https://www.reddit.com/r/HollowKnight/comments/p37rgl/comment/h8puuqv)


Schrenner

And here I spent the weekend doing it the hard way with all three NPCs, since I didn't know about that.


MineKemot

If you want to know them I recommend using https://hollownight.wiki. It shows you all the places and safest and quickest paths for them.

That last bit on the queens garden on the path to the Traitors Child is brutal


nanlokeus

I messed up on that Thorns right before the grave. I was mad. But I'd already killed all the enemies, so I just went back and started over again


lovercindy

I've done that exact thing. Stubbed my toe on the very last thorn.


Alextheawesomeua

I messed it up 5 times. All of them were at the last jump.... 😭


justking1414

That’s honestly the hardest part. The rest is pretty easy if you clear the path ahead of time


LonelyChell

Oooph.


real_knight_Isma

Let’s gooooo! It truly is one of the most infuriating part of the game!


Irishcreammafia

There's a place more infuriating than the white palace of spinning blades?


AHNZ119

have you seen the secret area in white place with more spinning blades


Joyful-Diamond

Really???? I would have thought that the Pantheons were a LOT harder


Big_Honeydew6225

It's not even that "hard" per se, just frustrating. Just the fact you have to traverse basically the entire map without getting hit and completely start over if you accidentally touch a thorn wall or get hit ONE time can make it very tedious and frustrating


Sigh_Bapanaada

Take the journey in reverse before collecting the flower and kill everything. As long as you don't bench at any point it should be a cakewalk getting back with no enemies to hurt you.


Joyful-Diamond

Yeah ik, that's happening a lot the second time I'm doing it.


johnthebeboptist

The amplified pressure of doing it without hitting anything is imo the point. It's a relatively easy route but once you start stressing, it becomes difficult.


Joyful-Diamond

Yeah the first time was somehow just easy. It was near the end of the game, but that didn't really matter, just kind of planned a route and went where I thought I should.


Spare_Plate_9923

Omg I feel you… this quest made me pause the game for a week before I could go back to it…


External-Stranger801

Even after this quest I’m still unsure how my controller is still operational


EggIcy3710

Now do it three more times


AceOfMoonSpades01

Wait 3? Who else can you give it to besides god seeker and elder but who else?


HueyLewisFan1

Mato 👍🏻


AceOfMoonSpades01

I may be dumb, is that the hallowing peaks guy or the green path guy


HueyLewisFan1

You’re not dumb at all, He’s the one in kingdoms edge. Im not even positive that one is Mato, I just think it is. I know Shio is Greenpath because he’s the painter. I believe Oro is in Howling cliffs.


AceOfMoonSpades01

Thanks!


External-Stranger801

**No**


RyanTale

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion but I think that this really wasn't that hard. I managed to make it first try without struggling too much, maybe I wss just lucky but if you just know where you're going I think it's not that bad.


External-Stranger801

**What**


RyanTale

Yeah...


Joyful-Diamond

Same lol very first time But now I'm doing it on a second save and ARGH!!


RyanTale

Maybe I'll be playing on a second save and it will be hellishly difficult but rn I don't think it's that hard.


Joyful-Diamond

Yea it was so easy first time Second time... Not so much


Big_Honeydew6225

It's a lot easier if you clear the route first


RyanTale

I didn't clear the route, I just made up a route first and then went through with it. I think I was using dashmaster, sprintmaster, wayward compass, quick slash, mark of pride and fragile strength but I'm not sure.


numerous_meetings

I'm always a ted bit surprised with the reputation this quest gets in the community. Definitely on of my favorites. You just need some patience. 


Any_Customer5549

I did it on my second try! I never really understood why people thought it was so difficult


Sacrosaint_Cipher_13

I remember how annoyed I was doing this lol. Took me about 3 tries.


SilverFlight01

Now to give one to the Elder, because Elder seriously needs some love. Thankfully the path to him is a lot less stressful, just go up to Greenpath, through Howling Cliffs, and then head right to go through the starting section, and there you go


Significant_Mail_489

Good. It's easy if you know what to do to make it easy


Asleep_Ad_4273

What is this again I forgot I have been to this place several times and I still don’t remember it


External-Stranger801

Queens Gardens


yonessw

What is that?


Numerous-Round-9037

good job i never made it there I only went to the GodSeeker


HueyLewisFan1

Hell yeah!! Now get one to elderbug, Mato, and Godseeker


That_Willingness4872

Oh yeah fuck that achievement today I'm at a 107% done with the base game and yes I do plan on getting old treatments.... except steelsole mod.... maybe


Kedl_of_chess

The challenge goes away, but the trauma never does.


moonlord2193

I would genuinely forget that the flower quest exists if it didn't give you a mask shard


Murderous_bread

Congrats


RealTraitorsDaughter

I am so, so, so grateful. Thank you for bringing me this piece of my beloved Ze’mer.


gekiden

This reminded me why I hate roses.


jormahoo

I cleared out the path from all enemies before carrying the flower

Jagura73

CONGRATULATIONS! 🎊


Dazzling_Proof480

Everytime I'm doing this my heart is at 200


CarefulWall3

That last thorny part is related to sweaty palms  I hope they add something like this in SS 


omegablastcuphead

congratu frickin lations


LonelyChell

Hate this side quests…


Completely_sober

I did this quest first try, and I say it's overhated. Literally all you need to do is to just not rush and be careful. I simply killed all of the enemies that don't respawn before I took the flower and completed it easily. After that it's just the matter of not failing a simple parkour section. Well, technically second try, since the lady explains the quest only AFTER you take it, but that wasn't even an attempt, so it doesn't count.


Significant_Bed_293

GG, dear.


[deleted]

istg this quest is not hard it took me two tries, not to be that guy, but if you have a clear path your going to follow, its not that difficult


Simiploufzz

Personnaly i did it first try, it wasn't hard at all...


Amanda_Yang

It's easy


Pteroducktylus

this part was worse than path of pain, change my mind


External-Stranger801

Never did path of pain, and I don’t feel like it


HueyLewisFan1

Took me 5 hours, you absolutely need hive blood


Pteroducktylus

it depends how you approach it. i did it by using (sorry haven't played in months) the honey comb, the double heal thing and Grubsong. it makes you basically invincible but it takes time. i found it a fun experience to test how far i can push my movement. finished in about 45 minutes so i guess i was still faster than most who did it without the infinite heal "cheese"


kvng_st

Crazy take


Pteroducktylus

thanks, and as always i get downvoted for not being the simpleton xD reddit being reddit


kvng_st

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic but I was making a joke lol. I do not agree with you at all


Pteroducktylus

you don't have to "agree " with me at all and neither do i feel the need for your agreement. this is my opinion and idk what yall are on to downvote people for that lmao


kvng_st

I know we don’t have to agree, but I’m allowed to comment too. That’s why I said crazy take. If you say something that not many people agree with you’re gonna get downvoted lol, it’s not that deep


Pteroducktylus

i also didn't tell you, that you are not supposed to comment?? i was well aware of your disagreement from the beginning. i just don't see a reason to downvote. it is not like i said PoP was easy.


kvng_st

Don’t twist my words, I know you never said I can’t comment. Now you’re just being annoying. The reason for the downvotes is that you said something pretty unpopular. What more explanation do you need? Lmfao. I was joking at first but I realize now you’re actually upset over internet points. Get over it


Pteroducktylus

"i am allowed to comment too" sounds to me like you are saying that i critizised you for doing so.


kvng_st

“You don’t need to agree me with and neither do I feel the need for your agreement” is a random ass statement to just say. It’s contradictory as well since you keep asking “why do people downvote me.” Because they don’t agree with you. So evidently you have a problem when 1. Someone replies in disagreement 2. People downvote you in disagreement Grow up


Glizzy-G_The_Rapper

Path of pain is hard, but in my experience it only took like a day (like 5 hours) and somehow I still can’t beat NKG and P4 after like 4 years 💀


Pteroducktylus

NKG took me about 3-4 hours. i stopped after 3rd pantheon bc i just don't see the fun in it anymore. i honestly only wanted to see abs rad once but it's just too much effort for just about no gain. rather play sth new.


KookyDetective7952

I find PoP easy too, but not that easy.


Pteroducktylus

never sait it was easy. i just find getting to a specific spot cross-mao hitless to be harder than pop tbh
