Gulka

Gulkas are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are plant-like beings who spit venom-filled spikey balls at intruders. The venom has certain enjoyable effects when it is consumed.

Behaviour and Tactics Shoots spiked balls in the Knight's direction. These balls arc very slightly with gravity.

When approached, it retracts into the wall or ceiling it has grown on, making it hard to kill. To damage it, either increase the Nail's range with a Charm like as Longnail or Mark of Pride, use a Nail Art such as Dash Slash, use a Spell such as Vengeful Spirit/Shade Soul, or reflect the spiky balls it spits back at it by striking them with the Nail.

Location Found in large quantities in Greenpath, to the west of the Stone Sanctuary.

Trivia
 * If the projectile it spits runs into a wall, it bounces about harmlessly for a few seconds before splitting open and disappearing.
 * The Gulka is one of the few enemies that respawns upon leaving and re-entering the room.
