Underloft

Exhausted bug, grown sickly from the smog of the Underworks. The worker’s twistpins, once tools of repair, now serve as spun projectiles.

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