 If you try to keep your distance it will spit sticky, burning globs of vile stomach juice. Move in quickly and strike decisively.  |
Lesser Mawleks are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are fast-moving creatures with many teeth and sharp foreclaws who spit acid at targets.[1][2]
Behaviour and Tactics
Spits orange blobs of acid at the Knight from a distance that lingers on the floor for a few seconds. Once close enough, it winds up its leg for a swipe to deal melee damage.
The best tactic is to keep close to it to prevent it from spitting projectiles and dodge its telegraphed swipe while attacking either by jumping and downstriking it or using a Nail Art.
