You Didn't Know You Had THIS Choice In Hollow Knight

In Hollow Knight there are several choices that you can only make once per save game file. In this video I will let you know all of the things that you can only do once per save game file.

1. To save Zote or Not to save Zote:
If you do NOT save Zote in Greenpath before acquiring the Mantis Claw, he will die in this location and you will get the Neglected Achievement. You will also not have to fight Zote in the Pantheon of the Sage (P3).

If you save Zote, in Greenpath he will later need to be saved in Deepnest. Lastly Zote will show up and be an enemy in the first Trial of the Warrior in the Coliseum of Fools. Beating him will reward the player with the 'Rivalry' achievement.

Once the player has saved Zote in the Coliseum and Bretta the player also needs to have the Monarch Wings in order for a basement in Bretta's house to open. A fight with Zote starts by striking the statue in Bretta's basement with the Dream Nail. By winning you will receive the Dark Romance achievement.

2. To Kill the Nailsmith or Let him Live
First thing you need to do it collect all the pale ore in the game and upgrade your nail to the pure nail:    • Hollow Knight- Pale Ore Location Guid...  

After upgrading to a pure nail the nailsmith will leave his hut and asked to be cut down. If you go with his wishes you will get the Pure achievement.

If you let the Nailsmith live, you will get the Happy Couple achievement after visiting Nailmaster Sheo. Below is a video on all of that specifically:   • Hollow Knight- Don't Kill the Nailsmith!  

3. Let Cloth Live or Pass away.
If you do not find cloth in two locations before fighting the Traitor lord in the Queens Garden, Cloth will show up in Dirtmouth (after you find her) and live on.

If you find cloth in the Fungal Wastes and to the left of the Abyss tram station THEN fight the traitor lord, Cloth will help you fight the Mantis lord but will be killed in the process.

There is no achievement related to this.

4. To banish NKG or Fight
First you need to activate the Grimm Toroupe here:    • Hollow Knight Grimm Troupe DLC- Where...  

From there you will need to activate the grim child charm and fight grimm. After that you can chose to power up the Gimm Child charm further and FIght NKG for the Ritual Achievement.
eee
OR you can banish NKG for the Banishment Achievement
