Death Loodle
They seem fierce, but they have a lot of difficulty aiming at their target. Watch their motions and strike when the opportunity comes. Take their helmet with you as a trophy.
Death Loodles are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are Loodles who wear a helmet and were taught to fight in the Colosseum of Fools.[1]
Behaviour and Tactics
Acts the same as regular Loodles, hopping around and sticking to surfaces.
Watch their slow jumping arc to see where they are going to land, and then jump in to meet them before dashing away to avoid contact with them.
If the Knight has acquired the Pure Nail, a single Nail Art attack kills them. It is a good strategy to learn where their cages are located before they spawn and charge up Great Slash or Dash Slash to attack that area just before it emerges.

Trivia
- Possibly due to a bug, Death Loodles are not visually affected by the clouds of spores produced by Spore Shroom. However, they do still take damage from them.
