call out on @Milkypups they think that GREY PRINCE ZOTE is the best boss in hollow knight WHEN HE'S THE FUCKIN WORST BOSS IN THE GAME AND THE WORST CHARACTER IN THE GAME IN GENERAL AND IF I DO ANOTHER PLAYTHROUGH IM LEAVING HIM TO DIE

literally the only benefit to zote existing is the essence you get from his dream form boss fight
BUT THERE ARE MANY BENEFITS TO HIM NOT EXISTING
- HE STEALS YOUR GIRL
- HE'S AN ANNOYING CUNT
- HE GETS ADDED TO THE PANTHEONS AND MAKES THEM WAY WORSE

NO LITERALLY!!
IF YOU DON'T DO THE ZOTE FIGHT, THE PANTHEON JUST SKIPS HIM. HE'S NOT A REQUIRED BOSS LIKE LITERALLY EVERY OTHER BOSS IN THE GAME. YOU CAN MAKE THE PANTHEONS EASIER BY JUST IGNORING ZOTE ENTIRELY

ZOTE IS GARBAGE

OH
AND
FORGOT TO MENTION
YOU CAN GET THE ESSENCE FROM LITERALLY -ANYWHERE-
ZOTE IS LITERALLY POINTLESS
