Needle hits to kill
Silksong multiplies every hit on this enemy by its own factor for your needle level (HealthManager damage scaling), so upgrades help here more or less than the raw damage suggests. For 110 HP, its most common HP and scaling, and a hit for the needle's own damage (crest attacks multiply it first).
| Needle | Damage | Scaling here | Dealt | Hits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Needle | 5 | ×1.75 | 9 | 13 |
| Sharpened Needle | 9 | ×1.4 | 13 | 9 |
| Shining Needle | 13 | ×1.1 | 14 | 8 |
| Hivesteel Needle | 17 | ×1 | 17 | 7 |
| Pale Steel Needle | 21 | ×1 | 21 | 6 |
