BOSS FIELD NOTES

Hollow Knight

Sunken Abbey · Melee encounter

Read the encounter

An armored guardian marking your position for huge bell impacts at any distance, alternating with split volleys. Leave the amber circle and dodge through the volley gaps; attacks more often below half health.

Keep moving during the warning, then use the recovery window to position your spinning yo-yo. Cast only when your weapon’s allowed state and spell cooldown permit it.

Bosses reposition between attacks and during attack warnings, and try to leave active spinning yo-yo circles, including extra Hat Trick yo-yos. Lead their movement with your throws, then aim at their marked ground hazards and use stagger windows to hold spin damage on them. Normal enemies still stop to attack. Walls, movement slows and overlapping circles can limit their escape.
