How to get to Hollow Knight Silksong Sands of Karak

To reach the Sands of Karak in Hollow Knight: Silksong, players must start in the Blasted Steps, located south of Mount Fay, and use the Clawline ability along with Glide and Wall Jump. From the bench in the Blasted Steps, players should go right, drop down a pit, and use Glide to navigate to a ledge leading west. Visibility is limited due to a dust storm, and players must travel west using the Clawline ability to grab hooks along the route. After entering the Sands of Karak, players will face walls to climb while avoiding stalagmites and stalactites, and must navigate a stretch of timed platforms using diagonal attacks to progress. A narrow tunnel to the right can be scaled to activate a timed route above.

Minecraft Pointed Dripstone – Stalagmites And Stalactites Guide

Stalagmites, known as Pointed Dripstone in Minecraft, rise from the ground and are found in dripstone caves alongside stalactites, which hang from ceilings. Players can mine pointed dripstone and dripstone blocks using any tool, but a pickaxe is most efficient. To craft a dripstone block, four pointed dripstones are combined at a crafting table. Dripstone caves are located in overworld cave biomes, typically away from water sources. Stalagmites can double fall damage if a player or mob falls onto them, making them hazardous. They can also serve a decorative purpose. Stalactites, which hang down, can drip water or lava into a cauldron when positioned above it, but they deal damage only when the block they are attached to breaks.
