Dreg Catcher

Bug charged to catch dregs of Silk that fall from the Citadel. Will attack with its staff if provoked.

Needle hits to kill

Silksong multiplies every hit on this enemy by its own factor for your needle level (HealthManager damage scaling), so upgrades help here more or less than the raw damage suggests. For 21 HP, and a hit for the needle's own damage (crest attacks multiply it first).
