Hollow Knight: Silksong has launched to a massive anticipation after 7 years of a huge yet staggering wait. With so much to unfold, the players finally take control of Hornet, who is on a journey to reach the top of the lands after being kidnapped.
However, finding the right items to progress and beat your enemies in this arduous journey is your top priority. With the Silkspear, the skill that introduces you to the equipping system, you can unharden your progress by a small scale. Here’s how you can obtain the Silkspear Skill in Hollow Knight: Silksong.
Where to Get the Silkspear Skill in Hollow Knight Silksong?
The Silkspear skill is the first ability you receive while progressing Hornet’s story. To receive the skill, head to the Bone Bottom’s top platform in the upper right, and interacting with a skill shrine there provides you with the Silkspear Skill.
Considering the Metroidvania’s inherently complex map structure, you should buy the area’s map from Shakra, who stays in the upper left area of The Marrow; her singing carries from afar. With the help of Bone Bottom’s map and a compass to pinpoint your location, reaching the location becomes significantly easier.
However, if Shakra isn’t in her usual spot, you can find her in the Bone Bottom’s village after you reach the Deep Docks. She sells an area’s map for 40 Beads and deals with the compass for 50 Beads. If you’re unfamiliar, you can retrieve Beads by exploring and killing the hostile fleas.
How to Use Silkspear Skill?
To use the newly discovered skill, you can press R1/RB on PlayStation and Xbox. For PC, press F to unleash the Spear’s power. Unlocking Silkspear is mandatory to progress the story as it opens up the silky pathways spread across the map and additionally unlocks one major boss fight.
