Winged Fool

Winged Fools are enemies in Hollow Knight. These winged warriors fight other bugs to the death in the Colosseum of Fools.

Behaviour and Tactics They hover outside of the Knight's reach, then lunge toward them in an arc, slashing their weapon.

This pattern is easy to predict and follow, simply jump over the attack or dash through it and hit them on the recovery. They can also be defeated by using the Mantis Claw to climb up the walls of the arena and staying above them while slashing downwards. As they have no upward attacks, they cannot retaliate while the Knight is still able to deal damage.

Spells help to chip at their health before going for the kill.

Location This enemy is only found in the Colosseum of Fools, in the last two trials.
