Madman modder takes one of Silksong’s worst bosses and makes them even harder: ‘This is seriously mucked up’

Team Cherry introduced the Savage Beastfly in Hollow Knight: Silksong, which players found challenging. A modder named JngoCreates created the "Mucked Beastfly," which retains the original's difficulty while adding complexity. CrankyTemplar showcased the Mucked Beastfly in a video, describing it as "slightly more challenging" and suggesting a strategy of quickly eliminating minions. Commenters expressed astonishment at the mod, with one user stating, "This is seriously mucked up." The mod's description notes that defeating the Mucked Beastfly does not save the defeat state, causing the fight to re-trigger each time players return to the room.

How to beat the Hollow Knight Silksong Savage Beastfly

The Savage Beastfly is an oversized Diptera found in Hunter's March, specifically in the Chapel of the Beast, located in the bottom-right corner. Players must equip the Drifter's Cloak to access this area and should secure the Hunter's March bench before entering the chapel. The Beastfly has two primary attacks: a long-range charge and a triple downward slam, and it summons smaller Beastflies and spike-spouting Kiliks. Players can defeat it by timing their dodges and managing summoned enemies effectively, utilizing tools like the Silk Storm ability and the Reaper Crest for healing and mobility. In the Far Fields, the Savage Beastfly appears in the Fourth Chorus boss arena, accessible after accepting the Savage Beastfly wish quest from the wish board in Bellhart. Players need to defeat the Cogwork Dancers in Act 2 to unlock this quest. Enhancements like the Clawline skill and Faydown Cloak improve mobility during the fight. The second Beastfly retains similar abilities but introduces sticky fireball-spewing Tarflies. Players should eliminate Tarflies quickly and utilize tools like Sting Shards and Flea Brew for effective damage management. Defeating the Beastfly rewards players with a mask shard, completing the quest.
