Description

Contains the gratitude of freed grubs.

Gain SOUL when taking damage.

How to Acquire

Gifted by the Grubfather after the player has freed 10 Grubs.

Usefulness

This is perhaps one of the best charms available with a one-slot cost, as it provides a good amount of SOUL meter to use as healing in compensation for taking damage. The SOUL provided per hit is not enough for a heal on its own but combined with the SOUL gathered by striking enemies, or with other charms that help gather SOUL faster, this charm becomes incredibly useful for a Spell-focused build.

It also shines in difficult platforming areas where enemies are not readily available for gathering SOUL.

 Charm Interactions

Shaman Stone

Works well with Shaman Stone since it allows for the player to more frequenty cast high-damage Spells.

Hiveblood

In combination with Hiveblood it allows for regenerating SOUL infinitely, albeit slowly, by jumping into hazards or enemies, retreating, waiting for health to regenerate, then repeating.

Deep Focus

Combined with Deep Focus and Hiveblood, it greatly helps tackling difficult platforming challenges, especially the White Palace.
Grubberfly's Elegy
When used in combination with Grubberfly's Elegy, the amount of SOUL received from taking damage is increased to 25%.
Weaversong
When used in combination with Weaversong, the Weaverlings will collect 3% SOUL upon making contact with the enemy.
