The Hollow Knight

The default final boss. Slow telegraphs, three escalating phases, and an emotional gut-punch as the Vessel begins striking itself to release the Infection.

Phases

  1. 1.

    Restrained

  2. 2.

    Self-striking

    Begins driving the nail into itself, releasing infection bursts.

  3. 3.

    Infection blossom

Attacks

  • Nail slash
  • Lunge
  • Infection blob
  • Self-impale burst

Hunter’s notes

Forged of god and void. The Vessel created to seal away the Old Light's plague — and it cracked.
