Requires the Clawline

Use the Clawline to hook onto switches

The platforming section leading up to the Cogfly requires players to use the Clawline, a grappling hook that Hornet can shoot out horizontally. Players will need to shoot the Clawline through the loops in order to activate switches that unlock the path to the Cogfly.

How to Use Cogfly

Spawn Cogflies During Fights

The main function of Cogfly spawns are for dealing passive damage to enemies. This can help in boss fights as large bosses will tank all the hits from each Cogfly. At the same time, this helps in gauntlets as Hornet's Cogflies can still deal damage while players can move more carefully.

Great for Overall Exploration

Cogflies move independently of Hornet's actions, leaving them with almost zero drawbacks. This means that players can focus on other actions, such as platforming, or using Silk Skills. Overall, the Cogfly offers so much value as a tool compared to its low cost of use.
