You can not kill menderbug to fill journal and get the achievement. You can still break the sigh and make menderbug happy, because he is happy to repair this sigh
if anyone wants to just see menderbug without killing him or him flying away, i suggest going into the room, breaking the sign, leaving to the left and reentering. keep breaking the sign each time you enter if he isnt there, if he is you can go into the little hole beneath him and stand below him and watch him work and hum his little happy work tune :] if you still want the entry you can stand on the platform to the left of him and blast a vengeful spirit/shade soul at him 🤷♂️
There are actually a lot more Maskflies in the room with the bench--probably fifteen or more. I'm pretty sure every Maskfly in the room is spooked when you use spells, because they're so loud. I found it easier to equip Sprintmaster, Dashmaster, Sharp Shadow, Mark of Pride, and Longnail to quickly kill more of them.
I just super dashed throught the room repeatedly, that's ACTUALLY how I figured out to can kill them and I think they're to ONLY enemy you can kill that way.
Don't be sad about killing Menderbug. He wouldn't have stand a chance against the infection so his mind would be destroyed anyways. I won't kill him tho
There are 168 total hunter's journal entries, but 22 of them aren't required for the hunter's mark, which are the following: WARNING: SPOILERS! Menderbug Zote Hollow Knight Radiance Grey prince zote Winged Zoteling Hopping Zoteling Violate Zoteling White Defender Grimmkin novice Grimmkin master Grimmkin nightmare Grimm Nightmare King Brothers Oro and Mato Paintmaster Sheo Greatnail sage Sly Pure Vessel There are also 4 marks which don't increase the total count in the journal: Hunter's mark Seal of binding Weathered mask Void idol Btw all enemies in the eternal ordeal don't have entries.
The reason there weren’t any maskflys by the bench is because in that room if one flys away then they all do. If you use howling wraiths/abyss shriek than they don’t fly away, so use that to kill them. There is also more scattered around greenpath, although most of the others are on the way to queen’s gardens
I just got the menderbug, and whats funny is I said to myself. “I should only have to go to the bench for soul 6 times” and then, not even 2 seconds later, on my 6th dive, he appeared.
What if we actually fought the Hunter when he already gave us the Hunter's Mark? We fight him and he ends his life as he has found another one stronger then gives us the Hunter's Journal and the True Hunter's Mark. We then can write down an entry of the Hunter, that would be cool
@@RelyeaGaming It would be pretty tragic and nice for the Hunter to find one stronger than him and end himself. Or revealing himself would be cool. But an anticlimactic scene was enough by Team Cherry
Nice video, like all the others! I completed the Journal yesterday but I haven't killed the Menderbug yet. I'm at 111% completion, only the 4th and the 5th pantheon missing and they are very hard
finallt started doing annoying achievements again and came back to your guides, I forgot about duranda's and you mentioning the Aluba's was actually reminded me of them, thank you again Relya lol
I remember finding the menderbug and not knowing that I was supposed to kill em. I just sat there like an idiot watching the little fella fly away. What fun I'll have trying to find em again...
Fun fact: once you have discovered the mender bug his house will open down near where you find Sly. I’m not sure if the house will open if you’ve killed him or not.
Recently picked up Hollow Knight and also your channel. You're videos and commentary are great quality and deserve a bigger following! Good luck to you, and thanks for taking the time to make these Hollow Knight videos.
apparently mender bug emits an infection cloud when killed, so, he was most likely on the cusp of being infected before killing him so that erases the guilt a teensie bit, but still not fully,,,
I know I'm a little late to this, but the great slash can be used instead of the dive. Just charge the slash when you enter the well and release it before hitting the ground because for some reason, the great slash can force you out of the falling animation the well entrance puts you in. Make sure to be facing to the left when entering the well so you actually hit the menderbug when he spawns.
Oh wow thanks alot relyea! I remember asking you for the mender bug! So cool to see that you made a video about him and other bugs. I'm going to try getting him soon.
@@RelyeaGaming awesome. I'm just very happy you did a video with him. Heck hes even in the thumbnail. I always gave up after a few trys but knowing that it's a 2% chance I wont stop until i get him so thanks for that.
@@ballthatbounces626 of them all he is the most difficult, and yes it is possible to miss him and not get him as you arrive down the bottom you see him move at great speed away off screen which to be honest is very frustrating hehe... in which case you keep trying.
@@ballthatbounces626 Oh that is awesome :) another one off the list... or added to it depending on how you look at it hehe !!! Have you also been to his house ?? How many entries you got in your hunters journal now?? I actually loved doing the journal entries. As it got you all over the maps and area, was a great way to see everything this great game has to offer. Initially i just get it if get it later in game then will concentrate solely on the hunters journal and work on completing it that is how i do it anyways, but there is no reason why could not do it as you go... I guess whatever works for you :) Most important is just have fun... If you are wanting to know, the total number of possible entries you can get in the Hunters Journal is 165.... not all of those are needed to get it completed though some are just bonus's if you like but doing them all does give you a nice achievement.
I know this video came out a while ago but i was grinding for the mender bug and I had gone down the well maybe 115ish times and then I accidentally fell down the well without doing a descending dark and the mender bug was there so i didn't get it
On menderbug I spent 45m+ trying to get him because on two separate occasions I, as a joke, decided to go down the well without using spells to see if he would spawn. He did. Both times. And then I forgot to use DD once and of course he also had to spawn that time, but I finally got the entry and I was so happy
I got the mender bug when the cross roads weren’t infected (I think it was my fifth time going down not using deslet dive cause I didn’t have the ability it saw me and went “hhwoo!” And *flew?* away)
you do NOT need to use desolate dive in order to spawn in the menderbug. It is required however if you want to kill him and in turn get the journal entry
Yesterday i finished my first 112% run and got most of the achievements,unfortunately i couldn't complete the Hunter's Journal so here's a few tips: -Get the Journal as soon as you can -Complete the entries for the Crossroads enemies BEFORE the spread of the infection,because most of them will be replaced by their infected counterpart once you progress -When you fight Broken Vessel/Lost Kin,try to prolong the fight to kill as many of the floating orange enemies that spawn,because for some reason you can't seem to get your remaining kills in the pantheon fights.Kinda weird since the Sharp Baldurs that Collector spawns in P5 do count.

Don't be sad about killing Menderbug. He wouldn't have stand a chance against the infection so his mind would be destroyed anyways. I won't kill him tho
It was quick and hopefully painless (ignore his screams)
Menderbug seems to be ancient, with equally ancient devotion. I highly doubt the infection could overtake him.
You can just end the infection before he dies, like bruh -_-
his eyes didnt even had the slightest bright of orange
is there a way to summon him without killing him?

There are 168 total hunter's journal entries, but 22 of them aren't required for the hunter's mark, which are the following:
WARNING: SPOILERS!
Menderbug
Zote
Hollow Knight
Radiance
Grey prince zote
Winged Zoteling
Hopping Zoteling
Violate Zoteling
White Defender
Grimmkin novice
Grimmkin master

Paintmaster Sheo
Greatnail sage Sly
Pure Vessel
There are also 4 marks which don't increase the total count in the journal:
Hunter's mark
Seal of binding
Weathered mask
Void idol
Btw all enemies in the eternal ordeal don't have entries.
So I don't need to kill menderbug for keen hunter? YAY!
8:04 the arrow comes out a bit to late lol

I liked the hornet fight it was the first challenge that I didn’t feel like a idiot to die at
It is tough for sure
Funny how I already did the full journal but im watching this because your videos are really entertaining.
Super cool! I thought I was almost done but I need 4 of these!
Heck yeah. Glad was able to help you find em

Your right. I spooked em
Is the gorgeous husk’s area behind a breakable wall? I don’t remember breaking anything when I found it
Nah, there's just a raised platform you have to jump onto.
I thought it was breakable but it’s just hidden
For the maskfly, you can keep respawning the ones in the first room if you just go in and out of the room after killing them.
Thank you for all your guides. You were the only one that showed/mentioned the Gorgeous Husk. My trophy popped right up.
Happy to help!
This game never ceases to amaze me, best game ever for all time
Literally the single time I dive bombed down the well I killed the menderbug. what a coincidence
I'm actually kinda proud of myself for finding most of these, exeption being void tendrils and menderbug
I just got the menderbug, and whats funny is I said to myself. “I should only have to go to the bench for soul 6 times” and then, not even 2 seconds later, on my 6th dive, he appeared.
You don’t have to sit at a bench for maskflies, just leaving and reentering is enough.
you are right. my bad
