Silk Soar

From Hollow Knight Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Silk Soar is an Ability that Hornet acquires in Act 3 of Hollow Knight: Silksong. Hornet flings her Needle into the sky on a thread of Silk, then rockets up to where the Needle sticks. It costs 1 strand of Silk per use.

Function

  • Hold DOWN + HARPOON to begin charging the Silk Soar. Hornet can cancel the charge early without expending Silk.
  • After about a second, release to have Hornet throw her Needle.
  • When the Needle hits the nearest ceiling, Hornet shoots up to it.
    • Higher ceilings create more of a delay between throw and jump.
    • Hornet's flight can be cancelled early by pressing JUMP, ATTACK, HARPOON, or by being attacked.

How to Acquire

Silk Soar is one of the last Abilities Hornet acquires, only being obtainable in Act 3. It can be found on her first visit to The Abyss, in a Weaver Burial Spire behind a Needolin door in Weavenest Absolom.

Trivia

  • The Abyss and subsequent escape sequence back up to Deep Docks contain what appear to be several broken or unusable Weaver lifts similar to the one in Weavenest Atla, indicating where Silk Soar can be used to go up.
