Notes are useful during runs to remind yourself what to do next (as this guide is a bit wordy). A pastebin of notes for this category (link), which should be up to date.

Additionally, the first video is a tutorial on how to set up LiveSplit, OBS, and everything else you might need for speedrunning, if this is your first category.

#STONE SANCTUARY HOLLOW KNIGHT MAP PATCH#

The most important skips to look at are the fireball skips and mantis pogo, as nearly everything else has a patch difference (Any% NMG is optimally run on 1.2.2.1). The best ones to watch are parts 1–3 (up to Mantis Claw), as the route diverges after that. Fireb0rn's Any% NMG video tutorial series explains some of the early-game skips in depth we highly suggest checking it out.You can find the modinstaller on the HK speedrunning discord server (link is the little discord icon).

#STONE SANCTUARY HOLLOW KNIGHT MAP INSTALL#

If possible, install it on a completely separate installation of the game, as no mods are allowed in runs on, including the modding API itself (with the exception of the load normalizer, which is mainly used for tournaments and runs by itself without the modding API).

#STONE SANCTUARY HOLLOW KNIGHT MAP MOD#

You are encouraged to download the debug mod to make practicing easier (save states, infinite soul and health, etc.).

Splits for this category can be found here (credit to slaurent).

Ends at, well, completing the run (Pantheon 5).

The Grubfather visit is a two minute break.

Kind of obviously the most difficult part of the run.

Ends with the first three nail upgradesĪll of the hard stuff: The Colosseum, Flower Quest, White Palace, and the Pantheons.

All three Dreamers are in this part - their cutscenes are really long, so you can use them as a short stretch/stand up/water break.

Difficulty is varied throughout this part includes some of the harder areas (such as Queen’s Gardens and the Hive), but the boss fights aren't too bad with the equipment you have.

Can be a bit confusing on where to go at timesĪ big journey around the map, clearing all of the remaining areas for completion.

This part mainly consists of collecting the Grimmkin flames around the map, as well as getting the last few abilities and spells.

Some of the harder fights (such as Lost Kin and Failed Champion) are here.

This part is collecting most of the movement abilities and level 2 spells. The route is separated into four main parts: Huge credits and thank you to MonStahLer for making the original guide that we based this on and sharing it with us. That means that this category gets the Embrace the Void/Pantheon 5 ending, and therefore spends quite a lot of time in Godhome. All Pantheon Bosses means that you have to fight every possible boss in Godhome (including Grey Prince Zote and Absolute Radiance), but not necessarily all of the ones outside of it. This is a speedrunning guide (by artzfreak, Dyst0p, and Icefire) for the 112% APB (All Pantheon Bosses) category in Hollow Knight.

If you have any questions, feel free to join the HK speedrunning discord server (link is the little discord icon) and ask, especially in the #107-112-percent channel. Splits for both routes can be downloaded from HK Split Maker (link), thanks to the wonderful slaurent! The best way to learn the current route is probably through a combination of the pastebin + watching recent runs. If you are more familiar with the game's layout and/or speedrunning this game in general, consider checking out one of the route notes pastebins instead - 10 notches (link) or 11 notches (link) - which are kept up-to-date but do not contain any maps or explanations for strats. This guide is no longer up-to-date with the most recent route for this category, and cannot be properly updated for the time being - however, it is still a valid way to learn the category, as altogether the reroutes are only a few minutes (maximum) faster.
