Hollow Knight: Silksong isn’t a linear adventure by any stretch of the imagination. It expects you to explore thoroughly as you chart your path through its perilous maps. Doing so will sometimes lead you to some unique NPCs who ask you to complete quests known as Wishes, such as the Seamstress you’ll encounter in the Far Fields. This character will assign you the Flexile Spine Wish, tasking you with finding 25 Spine Cores. Luckily, you won’t have to make too long a journey to collect these items.
Where to find Spine Cores in Hollow Knight: Silksong
To collect Spine Cores, you must find enemies known as Hokers, which look like floating white balls with a green beard and spikes. If you leave the Seamstress’s home and head to the right, you can move through some rooms filled with plenty of these enemies, so you won’t have to travel far to get what you need.
However, instead of focusing on killing these enemies, your goal is to harvest their spikes. Each time you hit them, they’ll fire off spikes that will stick to nearby surfaces. You can then strike these spikes to make them drop an orb containing a Spine Core. Do this 25 times, and you’ll have everything you need.
Each Hoker can take three hits before they die. The trick to getting the most bang for your buck is to hit them one time and wait for them to regenerate spikes again. If you hit them before they regenerate spikes, you’ll ultimately end up with fewer Spine Cores from that Hoker.
Additionally, beware that the spikes Hokers fire out will disappear after a few moments, so make quick work of them to ensure you aren’t missing out on the Spine Cores within.
Once you’ve collected all 25 Spine Cores, return to the Seamstress to earn your reward, which is the Drifter’s Coat. This upgrade lets you glide after a jump, and it’ll allow you to ride the air currents you’ve probably seen around the area. Now, you can explore even further than ever before.
There are plenty more Wishes to finish throughout your journey. For instance, if you haven’t finished the Berry Picking Wish, check out where to find 3 Mossberries in Hollow Knight: Silksong.
