Hollow Knight Silksong Broodfeast Quest Guide
The Broodfeast is one of the darker wishes in Hollow Knight: Silksong. You’ll find it deep in the Putrified Ducts, where the Huntress demands a collection of organs to feed her brood. While the request is gruesome, completing it rewards you with the Longclaw, one of the strongest tools in Pharloom.
The quest asks you to bring back three types of organs: seared, shredded, and skewered. Each requires different tools to harvest, and you’ll need to plan your farming runs carefully.
Broodfeast Quest Location
The quest begins in the Putrified Ducts, a toxic area in Pharloom’s upper right.
To reach it, you must finish the Shadow of the Mountain main mission and have both the Clawline and Faydown Cloak.
The easiest entry is via Memorium, climbing to the Citadel roof, and dropping into the Ducts from the left side. Activate the Bellway station and bench for safer farming routes.
Inside the Ducts, smash through a breakable wall near the bottom shaft. Enter the hut and speak with the Huntress, who tasks you with the feast.
How to Get Seared Organs
Tools required: Fire-based options.
Pimpillo Bomb – Found in the Sandcarver quest. Bouncy but effective for hitting grouped enemies.
Wispfire Lantern – Dropped by the Father of the Flame in Wisp Thicket. Summons a wisp to burn nearby foes.
Flintslate – Imbues your Needle with fire. Found in Deep Docks behind a locked padlock (requires a simple key).
Farm weak enemies in Greymoor’s Halfway House route for efficiency. You’ll need 15 seared organs total.
How to Get Shredded Organs
Cogwork Wheel – Buy from the Twelfth Architect in the Underworks for 360 rosaries and 1 Craftmetal. Spins through enemies, yielding multiple stacks.
Architect’s Crest – Converts attacks into shredding damage if equipped, but requires more progression.
You must collect 35 shredded organs. Farming early-game Pilgrims with the wheel is the fastest method.
How to Get Skewered Organs
Longpin – Hidden in Shellwood, above the lower Bellhart entrance. Reliable piercing attack.
Sting Shard – Sold by the Forge Daughter in Deep Docks. Powerful but less consistent.
You only need 10 skewered organs, making this the quickest part of the grind.
Rewards for Completing Broodfeast
Once you deliver all organs to the Huntress, she rewards you with the Longclaw tool.
Extends Needle reach significantly.
Functions similarly to the Longnail charm from Hollow Knight.
Offers both safety and better offensive reach, making it one of the best tools in the game.
Final Blurb
The Broodfeast quest in Hollow Knight: Silksong may be one of the grisliest side tasks, but it’s also one of the most rewarding. Found in the Putrified Ducts, the Huntress demands seared, shredded, and skewered organs. With the right tools and farming routes, you can gather them quickly and earn the Longclaw — a tool that permanently extends Hornet’s Needle reach.
