Hollow Knight: Silksong (Blind) - Episode 19: I Just Wanted to Walk Left

In today's episode of the "Silksong" playthrough, we defeat Moorwing, obtain the Reaper's Crest, and get our asses handed to us by Craws.

If you don't feel like dealing with the Savage Beastfly as soon as you get the Drifter's Cloak (which I completely understand), then chances are that the Reaper's Crest is your second crest; and a great one at that.
You see, while the Reaper's Crest's standard attack is very sluggish when compared to that of the Hunter and Beast's Crests, it makes up for this with its impressive range. In addition, while the Reaper's Crest's downward attack has a slight diagonal tilt to it, compared to the Hunter's Crest, it's much closer to the straight down direction of the one from "Hollow Knight". As such, if you've been having a hard time getting used to Hornet's default downward attack- especially when it comes to pogo sections- or struggling to fight large enemies without taking contact damage, then this may be the crest for you.
However, while the Reaper's Crest is great for more defensive players, which is further supported by how it briefly causes enemies to drop additional silk upon being hit after binding, it doesn't work well when dealing with fast-moving and/or airborne enemies, such as the Craws on the east side of Grey More.
Though in the Reaper's Crest's defense, from my personal experience, those Squatcraws are a pain to deal with regardless of the crest you use. Seriously, Squatcraws are just primal aspids, but stouter and with a bird aesthetic.
