During the first encounter with the Savage Beastfly inside the Chapel of the Beast, players might have had a very tough time, as the boss has a habit of tracking the player's movement while flying, and it also summons three enemies at once to aid it.

Unfortunately, there is some bad news for the Silksong players, which is that they have to fight the boss again to complete a quest, and this time, the arena is even worse. This guide offers information on where to find the Savage Beastfly after picking up the quest and how to easily beat the boss in Hollow Knight: Silksong.

Savage Beastfly Quest Guide in Silksong

The requirements to accept this quest are that you have to defeat the boss inside the Chapel of the Beast, progress through the second Act, and defeat the Cogwork Dancers. Once that is done, make your way to the Bellhart, where you can find the Wish on the board. Accept it and make your way to the Far Fields Bellway Station.

Now you can track the beast if you want, but that'll take time, and there are no rewards for this. Instead, go through the left passage, head down, and then right. In the same area as the Four Chorus, you will fight the Beastfly.

How to Beat Savage Beastfly in Silksong

The Savage Beastfly can be quite a difficult boss fight as it can spawn multiple enemies throughout the fight. The problem with this fight is the boss arena has lava on the sides and the boss can also destroy the platforms when it goes for the slam down attack.

Falling down in the lava will deal two mask damage unless you are wearing the Magma Bell which is a Blue Tool.

An easier way to deal with this boss is to bring the Sting Shard and the Curveclaw along with the Pollip Pouch, which adds Venom to the tools. If the boss gets hit by the Sting Shards that you can lay out before the boss fight begins, the fight can be over in less than a minute. Once the boss has been dealt with, you can grab the Horn Fragment and head back to the Bellhart Quest board. Completing the wish will reward you with a Mask Shard, which is required to increase your max health.
