Squit

Hunter's Journal


''Charges at prey with its needle-like proboscis.   ''

''When they lunge at you, don't panic. Stand your ground, and strike back as they come close.''

Behaviour and Tactics
These pests can be quite annoying in the early game. They hover in the air until they spot the Hollow Knight, at which point they will hiss and lunge at the foe, not stopping until they impact something.

It is sometimes possible to stop a Squit mid-charge by whacking it with your Nail, but this requires very good timing. It is usually a better idea to bait it into slamming itself against the ground, then killing it before it recovers and launches another attack.
