Hollow Knight: Silksong

Fourth Chorus Boss Guide

Hollow Knight Silksong - Fourth Chorus Boss Guide

Fourth Chorus is a boss located in Far Fields in Hollow Knight: Silksong. See a loadout you can use to beat Fourth Chorus, its attack patterns, and rewards in this guide!

Fourth Chorus Recommended Loadout

Abilities Silkspear
Tools
Crests

At this point in the game, the only crest available to you is the Hunter Crest. The Hunter Crest's balanced loadout and relatively quick attacks allows you to make swift moves in the moment, making it a reliable crest that will carry you far in your early game.

To reduce the damage from falling into lava, and from the Fourth Chorus' fire attacks, it is recommended to have the Magma Bell equipped as your Blue Tool.

Due to the Fourth Chorus' large size and easy to predict movements, you can use the Sting Shard to lay down a spike trap that can deal extra damage to the boss when you are unable to get close.

Fourth Chorus Location

Lava Pit in Far Fields after Getting Drifter's Cloak

The Fourth Chorus is located in a pit of lava in the Far Fields in the area right before the Seamstress. You can only fight the boss after getting the Drifter's Cloak.

How to Beat Fourth Chorus

Fourth Chorus Boss Fight Tips


Attack the Boss' Head

The Fourth Chorus' head is its only weakpoint and its not possible to damage its hands. You have plenty of room to jump and attack it, though you need to be careful to avoid getting hit by its swipe attacks.

Stay Near the Middle

Stay near the middle of the stage right underneath the boss' head during the fight so that when the boss uses its ground smash attack, you can simply walk to the left or right side of the stage to avoid its follow-up attacks.

Glide Up the Air Vents to Finish It Off

After knocking the boss down a second time, two air vents will appear on the left and right side of the stage. You'll need to use your Drifter's Cloak to float up to the ceiling and destroy the two glowing molten rocks.

Once both are destroyed, a large stalactite will fall on the boss' head which will deal enough damage to finally defeat it.

Fourth Chorus Attack Patterns

Phase 1 Phase 2

Phase 1 Attacks

Slash Attack

The Fourth Chorus will swipe at the ground with its left or right hand. Jump over its hand to avoid the attack.

Ground Smash

The Fourth Chorus will smash the ground to destroy the platform underneath. Run to the opposite side of the stage to avoid falling in the lava.

Phase 2 Attacks

Falling Molten Rocks

The Fourth Chorus will start smashing the ceiling which will cause falling molten rocks to rain down the stage. The boss is vulnerable during this attack, though you'll need to avoid the falling rocks.
