As a person who has played Hollow Knight for a long time, I can say this quiz was easy. I only got Q19 and Q25 wrong :( Q13 is kinda weird (if we are talking with glitches, dream nail is the only one required) and so as Q11 as you just stated some bosses part of DLC
Yep, The DLC stuff was an oversight on my part. As for the required abilites, I just underestimated just how many work arounds there are and how clever the HK speedrun community are Great job on the score though, very impressive!

There's a ton of different ways u can skip a certain skill, like insead of cdash, use spell stalls and dash to get isma's (for Teacher's Archives). There was a patch that broke the dreamers so you could complete the game without the dream nail. Claw is a bit more difficult to forgoe because of Monomon, but have a look at minimum claw runs, they're crazy!
