Discover Hidden Upgrades to Maximize Your Tools in Hollow Knight: Silksong

In Hollow Knight: Silksong, players have access to a total of 65 tools, though three of these are advanced versions of existing tools. Importantly, throughout a single playthrough, players can acquire only one variation of the Silkshot. Moreover, in Steel Soul Mode, the Shell Satchel takes the place of the Dead Bug’s Purse, capping the potential number of tools to 59.

As anticipated, the three upgrades available for tools in Hollow Knight: Silksong provide substantial enhancements compared to their standard forms. Two of these upgrades unlock later in the game, specifically in the final act, and they are definitely worth the effort to obtain, with the Curvesickle emerging as a top-tier red tool and the Claw Mirrors also proving quite effective.

How to Obtain the Druid’s Eyes in Hollow Knight: Silksong

To upgrade the Druid’s Eye to Druid’s Eyes, players must deliver four extra Mossberries to the Moss Druid after completing the Berry Picking Wish. Along with the three required for the Wish, players can locate six Mossberries within the Moss Grotto, with the seventh hidden in the lower section of Memorium. Players will first be able to unlock the Druid’s Eyes during Act 2, as this marks their initial opportunity to enter Memorium.

How to Acquire the Curvesickle in Hollow Knight: Silksong

During Act 3 of Hollow Knight: Silksong, players have the chance to upgrade the Curveclaw to the Curvesickle. They will need to head to the Far Fields and find the area beneath the Pilgrim’s Rest bench, where four targets will be located above them. Successfully hitting all four targets with a single throw of the Curveclaw will summon a Skarr Scout who will request the Curveclaw in exchange for the upgraded version. After relinquishing the Curveclaw, players should rest at a bench and return to the room with the targets to collect the fully upgraded Curvesickle.

How to Obtain the Claw Mirrors in Hollow Knight: Silksong

To upgrade the Claw Mirror into Claw Mirrors, players must progress through Act 3 in Hollow Knight: Silksong, having first defeated Trobbio during Act 2. Upon accepting the Pain, Anguish, and Misery Wish from the Wishboard in Songclave, players can return to Trobbio in the Citadel to defeat him again, earning the Dark Mirror. This will combine with the Claw Mirror previously obtained from Trobbio to form the Claw Mirrors.
