Hollow Knight · Traversal ability

Mantis Claw

Mantis Claw lets the wearer cling to, ascend, and slide down walls, then leap away, enabling access to areas and platforming challenges.

How it works

The ability permits clinging to walls and leaping off them; IGN also describes ascending or sliding down walls. It provides access to new areas and specific platforming challenges. Its listed location is the upper-left section of Mantis Village in Fungal Wastes, and Mothwing Cloak is required.

Read the supporting references

Covers nine named abilities or traversal items and the Nail’s general upgrade track. IGN supports the ability effects and listed conditions; the Nail passage supports its general damage-increasing upgrade description and materials. Individual Nail forms, statistics, costs, and effects are not established by the supplied Nail excerpts. Guidance explains the referenced mechanics; it is not a tested damage ranking. Check the stated edition and source version before applying a patch-specific detail.
