Fastest in Pharloom is a Sprint Wish in Hollow Knight: Silksong. Read on to see a full walkthrough of completing the side quest, rewards, how to start, and its objectives.
List of Contents

To start the Fastest in Pharloom Wish, you'll need to reach Swift's race course, which is located on the northeasternmost side of the Farfields. This area can only be accessed in Act 3, once you have obtained the Silksoar.
Tips for Racing Swift![]() |
|---|
|
・ Dash on Race Start to Get a Speed Boost ・ Attack Swift to Delay Him ・ Use Clawline to Skip Certain Obstacles ・ Use the Beastling Call to Forfeit the Race |

If you time your dash at the third gong of the race, you'll be able to get a huge temporary burst of speed. It's a small distance that can be occupied by the dash, but it helps with getting the lead at the start of the race.

Attacking Swift will cause him to topple and slow down for a short period. Use this to your advantage by swinging your weapon when near Swift or using the Clawline to stagger him and reclaim the lead.

Another use of the Clawline while in the racetrack (aside from a lengthy dash) is that it gives you access to a long-distance mid-air dash. Use this to skip over certain obstacles like the pogo balloons, which severely hamper your pacing if you use it to jump around the race course.
Consider using Faydown Cloak + Clawline to skip several parts of a race and decrease your race time!

If you fall off-track, it is nearly impossible to claim the win in the race. If this happens, use the Beastling Call to summon Swift's beetle and forfeit the race. This will let you start a new round with a potentially better run.
| 1st Win | Rosary Necklace |
|---|---|
| 2nd Win | Beast Shard |
| 3rd Win | Mask Shard |
You will obtain a different reward depending on the number of times you beat Swift in a race. There are three track difficulties and every win you snatch against Swift will make the next track more difficult to race on.
If you have completed the Old Hearts wish, defeating Swift on the third track will let you get the Spintmaster's Memento, which is an item that you can display in your home in Bellhart.
