Battle Obble

From Hollow Knight Wiki

Raised in the Colosseum. Although trained for combat, its movements and attacks are still haphazard.

They have crafted a tiny mask for it! Is such an extravagance practical I wonder?

Battle Obbles are enemies in Hollow Knight. These bulbous creatures were raised in the Colosseum of Fools for combat.[1][2] The Obble is their wild relative.[1]

Behaviour and Tactics

Flies around in random patterns and intermittently fires four blobs of Infection in an X-shaped pattern. Also fires after taking any damage.

It does not directly target the Knight, but multiple spawn at once in the Colosseum, making dodging their shots difficult. The best strategy is to take them down quickly with a Nail Art or Spell (and possibly hit multiple at once). It is always recommended to stay beneath this enemy, as its shots cannot hit the Knight.

They have far more health than regular Obbles; even a Great Slash from a Pure Nail fails to kill them in one hit.
