- Hollow knight: Silksong Players find Savage Beastfly too difficult compared to other boss meetings
- A whole sub-shaft dedicated to the boss means that fans meet in their hatred
- Some fans believe that the boss is “the hardest enemy of the game” so far
Hollow knight: Silksong Players find it difficult to beat Savage Beastfly, some saying that it is the most difficult enemy they have still encountered, so much so that users have created a subreddit dedicated to the hatred of the boss.
Silk songand his predecessor Hollow knightis an intrinsically difficult game, but the players who have been waiting for the game for seven years do not have a good time to face a particular secret boss: Savage Beastfly.

While the user “Zachesque” puts it in a Reddit article, “How is Savage Beastfly?” They discuss how the fight seems extremely more difficult than any boss they had fought so far, and in Hollow knight combined.
They note that although the boss has only two attacks, one that makes two masks of damage even when you touch it, it is the flying enemies that appear that make the fight much more difficult, especially since it is in a small arena.
“Then there is also the bit where it has about a million health,” adds Zachesque. “The only saving grace for this fight could have been a low -health swimming pool, so it’s just a panicked frenzy while trying to reduce the thing before being overwhelmed, but no. It’s a long fight. You have to swept it around five times. So, in addition to being unfair, unknown and not very interesting, it is also a SLOG which takes too much time to spend.”
Other players seem to have the same problem, with the user commenting that “there is really nothing redeemable about this boss, maybe the most aggravating part is that it is just an AF * Cking fly, I have the impression of having a hardest enemy of the game for me, but I just finished Graymoor.”
Savage Beastfly even obtained his own sabreddit named ‘R / F * CKSAVADEBEASTFLY’, where fans met to hate the boss, with the best post entitled “This is the most affirming subreddit that I have ever seen in all my life”.
If you find it hard to beat Savage Beastfly, we recommend that you explore a little more and find additional tools that can be useful in your next attempt. Curveclaw, which is a remote gun of the boomerang type, could do the trick.
Elsewhere, Team Cherry announced that the first post-launch after Hollow knight: Silksong Patch will arrive next week and will address the difficulties of the start of the game by implementing “some light balance adjustments at the start of the game”.
