The many Crests of Hollow Knight: Silksong adjust the attacks and tools available to protagonist Hornet, and a new video from a silk scientist has confirmed what the true believers already knew: Wanderer is king.
That's a bit dramatic, admittedly. YouTuber Visic peeled back the obfuscation of Team Cherry's latest Metroidvania gem to determine exactly how much damage Hornet deals with different attacks. This testing, which reveals true damage numbers and HP bars, focuses on her needle attacks, charged attacks, and running attacks, so added damage from red tools – with some Crests notably allowing more red options for layered DPS – isn't factored in.
