I decided to test a bunch of different Charm "Packs". Finding out which ones you can beat the Pantheon of Hallownest with, the efficiency, and time it takes. Plus a few fun moments I had along the way. 🎉🎉🎉
The "Packs" I'll be going over are
Companion Pack
Soul Pack
Healing Pack
Nail Pack
And my least favorite
The FEAR Pack.
The rules for this was simple. I make a Charm 'Pack' which is a charm build! Then played Pantheon of Hallownest (P5) with said Pack. The goal was to see how to beat P5 with said Pack and strategies to use.
I'll start with my favorite Pack! The Companion Pack! I'd recommend this one just for fun. The build is
Weaversong
Grimmchild
Glowing Womb
Quick Focus
Grubsong
And Spore Shroom
Spore Shroom and Quick Focus can be replaced with other charms, but all other charms are required for the Companion Pack. Grubsong is required for additional Soul, and allows the Weavers to pick up extra soul as well. This is useful for the Glowing Womb charm, which takes soul constantly in P5.
With the Companion Pack your pets help you fight in the Pantheon. This allows you to mainly focus on dodging and healing while your pets deal damage.
However , enemies will snap out of staggers practically immediately due to the pets constant attacks. If an enemies staggers and you need to heal run as far from them as you can. This makes it so your pets can't attack as effectively while you heal.
The Companion Pack is least useful on these bosses
Uumuu
Radiance
Pure Vessel
Lost Kin
Galien
Markoth
Marmu
Nightmare King Grimm
The Soul Pack has these charms
All others are easy game with these fellows. This Pack is great if you mainly want to focus on healing and dodging while not worrying about having fo deal damage. Your pets will do that for you.
The Companion Pack took 1 hour and 57 minutes
Quick Slash
Soul Eater
Shaman Stone
Steady Body
Note that Steady Body can be replaced with any other 1 notch charm. Quick Slash can be replaced but I advise against it
The Soul Pack is the most powerful Pack. Shaman Stone increases spell damage, and Soul Eater allows you to pick up x2 the amount of Soul when striking an enemy. This combo is deadly. Combine that with Quick Slash and you can gain lots of Soul very very fast. While Quick Slash can be replaced from this Pack, I highly advise against that specifically for how quickly it helps you gain Soul.
The Soul Pack may be the most powerful, but it has some downsides. While you may be getting lots of Soul, you have no added health charms. Healing is definitely its weak spot, so be careful with getting hit and remember the best spots to heal while fighting.
This Pack is least effective with
Uumuu
Soul Tyrant
Nightmare King Grimm
Marmu
Enraged Guardian
Grey Prince Zote
The Collector
Failed Champoin
False Knight
It seems like a big list but don't worry!! It's still a very good charm Pack. Great for dealing tons of damage but bad for healing
The Soul Pack took 43 minutes to beat P5
The Healing Pack is next!
This Pack is for those who live in fear of death during the pantheon ! It's not super effective but it helps you get the job done by keeping you alive. These charms are
Fragile/Unbreakable Heart
Quick Focus
Shape of Unn
Grubsong
Dreamwielder
Lifeblood Heart
Dreamwielder can be replaced with any other one notch charm but all others are required.
This Pack gives you a shit ton of Health!! Add that on top of the unlockable Lifeblood seeds in the resting areas, and you have at least 19 hearts. Thats pretty good!! Shape of Unn let's you crawl around while healing, so you don't have to risk staying in one spot. Add Quick Focus on top of that, and you move/heal much faster. A must have for this charm pack
It's not effective for anything else, and you'll still need to deal damage to enemies but a health buff certainly helps you feel more confident in survival.
This Pack is least effective with
Nightmare King Grimm
Pure Vessel
Nosk
Grey Prince Zote
The Collector
Soul Tyrant
Obblobles
Nailmaster Sly
Hornet Protcter/Sentinel
Flukemarm
Again this is a health Pack, so effective for combat isn't that important. Staying alive is! And this is the Pack most suited for that very task.
The Health Pack took 1 hour and 21 minutes to beat P5
The Nail Pack is focused kn the strength of the Nail
This Pack has
Unbreakable/Fragile Strength
Mark of Pride
Nailmasters Glory
Quick Slash
Steady Body
This Pack is built to deal damage quickly and efficiently. Steady Body and Quick Slash is already a deadly combination, but with the added charms of Mark of Pride and Strength it adds more damage and longer reach. With Mark of Pride you don't have to get to close to your enemies, and Strength gives you a damage boost with the nail. Nailmasters Glory allows you to charge Nail abilities much faster so use that to your advantage
This Pack is least effective with
White Defender
Nosk
Xero
Gorb
Soul Tyrant
Obblobles
A rather short list! This build is incredibly efficient and easy for first time players of P5 to manage ! Although for first timers I'd still recommend the Health Pack and lots of practice.
The Nail Pack took 38 minutes to beat P5
And at last. The worst Pack ever.
The FEAR Pack.
This. Was the worst fucking thing I've ever dealt with and I don't know why I put myself through these things.
The FEAR Pack consists of
Fury of the Fallen
Grubberflys Elegy
Fragile/Unbreakable Strength
Sharp Shadow
Nailmasters Glory
This ungodly Pack gives you incredible strength at a horrific cost. You must alwasy be near death, and have to beat this pantheon almost flawlessly. Fury of the Fallen gives you strength when near death , and Grubberflys Elegy mixed with it sends sharp beams of pain to your enemies. Sharp Shadow let's you dash through enemies and deal damage at the same time, making it useful for this Pack. Nailmasters Glory can be replaced with any other one notch charm.
This Pack is designed to send you into an adrenaline rush, and panic if you get close to an enemy. If you're able to power through it and play it safe. Well. You still have the rest of P5.
One good thing is that if you make it to a safe room you can collect Lifeblood seeds . These let you keep the Fury of the Fallen statis without being on only one health.
This Pack is weak against
Hornet Protcter/ Sentinel
Nightmare King Grimm
Troupe Master Grimm
Radiance
Soul Tyrant
Obblobles
Sisters of Battle
Xero
Markoth
Marmu
Gorb
Dung Defender
White Defender
Nosk
God Tamer
The Collector
Hive Knight
Nailmasters Oro and Mato
Nailmaster Sheo
Nailmaster Sly
Pure Vessel
Grey Prince Zote
Uumuu
Watcher Knights
Crystal Guardian
Enraged Guardian
Galien
Broken Vessel
Lost Kin
Failed Champion
This Pack sucks ass !!! Don't use this unless you hate winning.
The FEAR Pack took two weeks and 1 hour and 2 minutes to beat P5
(None of these screenshots are mine)
Well. Thats it. Wooo!!! I might do something like this again but I'm not sure haha.
