Pilgrim Pouncer

Agile bug of Pharloom, its higher functions have been lost to the Haunting.

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 20 HP, and a hit for the needle's own damage (crest attacks multiply it first).
