I may remove this upload if their version gets enough traction.Twitch: twitch.tv/cofy_0
Silksong – Seeker’s Soul [No Clawline, No Faydown Cloak] (PATCHED in Patch 3) Cofy 2025-10-03 | Important: This was patched in patch 3.Firstly, I didn’t discover that Voltvessels break the ground from Putrified Ducts into Bilewater — the original find is here: [youtube.com/watch?v=UyyjAbl51wM]. Please check out their video! I wanted to show it is now possible to grab the Voltvessels in Memorium and then continue on to collect the Seeker’s Soul — all without needing Clawline or the Faydown Cloak : )Required items: Swift Step, Cling Grip, Drifter’s Cloak, Needolin, Beast Crest, and Needle Strike. This route is possible thanks to Beast Boost [youtube.com/watch?v=hcTN8kh8RcU&t=59s].This run is segmented — I cut out some of the silk grinding and mistakes to keep things moving. It’s not meant to be a flawless playthrough, just a showcase of what’s possible.Twitch: twitch.tv/cofy_0
Silksong – Act I First Sinner Cofy 2025-09-27 | When I first discovered that the Faydown Cloak could be obtained without Clawline [youtube.com/watch?v=BC9LS9KuCJo], the first, and really only, thought that came to mind was whether the First Sinner could be fought in Act I.It turns out the path is very straightforward: Faydown Cloak opens access to Upper Bilewater & Groal the Great [youtube.com/watch?v=qO8ZarqpyLU&t=4s], which then leads to the Apostate Key in the Putrified Ducts.I really enjoy this boss, so getting to experience the fight this “early” in the game is a real treat. The fight in the video is very sloppy (but, hey, that's just the way it is)...This run is segmented — I trimmed out silk grinding and a few mistakes to keep things moving. It’s not meant to be a flawless playthrough, just a showcase of what’s possible.Twitch: twitch.tv/cofy_0
Silksong – Act I Upper Bilewater & Groal the Great [No Clawline] Cofy 2025-09-26 | With the Faydown Cloak in Act I [youtube.com/watch?v=BC9LS9KuCJo], it’s very straightforward to climb up and defeat Groal the Great without Clawline. No difficult tricks required to climb up, but since some people were curious, here it is. The Groal fight was sloppy, but the ending was at least funny.Unfortunately, as previous videos have shown, Act II remains blocked through the Putrified Ducts [youtube.com/watch?v=OBB80LA3fQ0] and the Slab [youtube.com/watch?v=OsV7xYuwDvQ].This run is segmented — I cut out silk grinding and a few mistakes to keep things moving.
