Swift Step から Needle Strike まで、11 か所すべての場所と効果を網羅したこのガイドで、Hollow Knight Silksong のすべての祖先の技をマスターしましょう。

In Hollow Knight: Silksong, Hornet's journey through the kingdom of Pharloom introduces a layered progression system built around Ancestral Arts. These permanent abilities are distinct from the six equippable Silk Skills found in the Tools menu. While Silk Skills offer customizable combat and utility bonuses, Ancestral Arts fundamentally reshape movement, traversal, and interaction across the map. Players who track down all eleven Ancestral Arts will move faster, leap higher, strike harder, and unlock paths that were previously inaccessible.

Ancestral Arts are distributed fairly evenly across the main story. Five of them become available in Act 1, while the rest appear in later acts, with several in Act 3. Some are optional, but many are mandatory for exploring every region of Pharloom. The following guide describes each Ancestral Art, where to find it, and what it does.

Swift Step

Players unlock Swift Step by binding the statue located in the northern part of Deep Docks. This Ancestral Art allows Hornet to dash by holding the back right trigger. The dash also creates additional offensive possibilities, making it a foundational movement tool for both combat and platforming.

Drifter's Cloak

The Drifter's Cloak is obtained by completing the Flexile Spines Wish for the Seamstress in Far Fields. Once unlocked, Hornet can glide gracefully through the air and ride upward on strong gusts of wind. This ability is extremely useful for crossing wide gaps and reaching high ledges during the early acts.

Cling Grip

Players can unlock Cling Grip by binding the statue in the northern part of Shellwood. Cling Grip enables Hornet to perform wall jumps and temporarily hold onto vertical surfaces. If players equip the Ascendant's Grip tool, she can hold onto walls indefinitely, which opens up many optional exploration routes.

Needolin

Needolin becomes available after defeating the Widow boss fight in Bellhart during Act 1. This Ancestral Art serves as a special key and a communication tool. It can open special doors around Pharloom and also allow Hornet to interact with certain NPCs, making it essential for narrative progression and side content.

Needle Strike

Players unlock Needle Strike by agreeing to train with the Pinstress in the Blasted Steps area. This Ancestral Art allows Hornet to perform a charge attack. It is a useful offensive upgrade that adds a powerful charged option to her needle-based combat toolkit.

Clawline

Clawline is unlocked by binding the Statue in the Cauldron area of the Underworks. It works a bit like a harpoon or grappling hook. Hornet can use it to latch onto walls and enemies alike, which makes traversal more dynamic and also provides new ways to close distance during fights.

Faydown Cloak

Players can obtain the Faydown Cloak by playing Needolin while standing near the statue at the most northerly point in Mount Fay. This Ancestral Art gives Hornet the ability to double jump. That extra jump dramatically improves platforming flexibility and is required for reaching many upper areas.

Beastling Call

The Beastling Call is unlocked by beating the Bell Eater boss fight. That encounter becomes available after players attempt to summon the Bell Beast during Act 3. Once obtained, the Beastling Call lets Hornet instantly travel to the Bell Beast, which makes fast traveling across Silksong much easier.

Silk Soar

Silk Soar is unlocked by binding the statue in the Weavenest Absolom area of the Abyss during Act 3. It functions as a super jump, allowing Hornet to reach previously inaccessible areas. This ability is especially valuable for late-game exploration and for collecting missed items.

Elegy of the Deep

Players unlock Elegy of the Deep after completing the Spell Seeker main story quest during Act 3. This Ancestral Art allows Hornet to use Needolin to travel into the past when played in certain spots. It is a narrative and exploration ability that reveals new layers of Pharloom's history.

Sylphsong

Sylphsong is unlocked by binding Eva in Weavenest Atla during Act 3. Before doing so, players must find and fully upgrade all seven Silksong crests. After unlocking Sylphsong, Hornet's Silk is refilled whenever she rests at a bench. This makes long expeditions safer and reduces the need to conserve resources.

祖先の技を集めるためのヒント

まずはAct 1の5つの祖先の技に集中しましょう。基本的な移動やインタラクションの手段が解放されます。

可能な限りNeedolinを持ち歩きましょう。Faydown Cloakの入手に必要で、Elegy of the Deepを解放した後はさらに便利になります。

探索が制限されていると感じたら、欠けている祖先の技がルートを塞いでいないか確認してください。Pharloomのいくつかのエリアでは、二段ジャンプ、ダッシュ、スーパージャンプなどの特定の能力が必要です。

Sylphsongに挑戦する前に、7つのSilksongの紋章がすべて見つかっており、完全に強化されていることを確認してください。

危険な地域を長く戻る代わりに、Beastling Callを使ってBell Beastへファストトラベルしましょう。

祖先の技をすべて習得すると、Hornetの移動は流れるような、ほとんどダンスのような動きへと変わり、その操作感はしばしば同じ系統のさらなる挑戦を求めたくさせます。より難しいプラットフォームアクションを追い求めるときも、正確なタイミングが報われる名作を再訪するときも、新作や装備の割引を追跡できる手段があれば、その探索をより財布にやさしく進められます。
