2nd Hornet fight in Hollow Knight
Maybe im bad at the game but I feel like this fight is either bugged or doing way too much. At first I was jumping over her dash and punishing the thread storm after she drops. But she can literally goomba stomp you out of nowhere and it makes things worse with the spike traps. Sometimes the game is so self determined to make you lose Hornet will straight up animation cancel and fall in a straight line down while actively preparing a harpoon or threadstorm. I understand it's all the classic arguments but can someone explain how to consolidate this fight or God forbid cheese it. I've made it to Widow in Silksong so I know im not terrible at this genre or even the game in general. This fight just sucks, I enjoyed Savage beast fly more as a boss, Hornet just feels cheap imo.
