Shrumal Ogre

Shrumal Ogres are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are huge, beastly fungal creatures who have a heavily armoured cap.

Behaviour and Tactics

 * Thrash: Briefly winds up then smashes its head 7 times against the ground in front of itself, moving slowly forward.

Keep a small distance from it to bait its ranged attack, then dash under the acid to attack. Retreat when it pauses to use its melee attack.
 * Goo Spit: Spits balls of orange goo that will stay on the ground for a short period of time

Shrumal Ogres are impervious to Nail strikes from above, but can still be damaged by the Desolate Dive spell.

During the mini-boss battle where two are fought at once, try to damage-burst one down as quickly as possible. Stalwart Shell makes this significantly easier.

Location
There are four of them throughout the game:
 * Two are fought in the arena in the north of Fungal Wastes
 * The other two are near the Deepnest entrance in the bottom of Fungal Core.
