ā¹Watchful hunter, Savage beastā¹ ā When donning the Crest of the Beast, Hornet's needle splits in two and fuses to her arms to form massive, slashing claws.
Inspired by my battle with Gurr the Outcast! I feel like the Gurr boss battle is so underrated. Perhaps not for the combat itself but for the concept. For once, Hornet does not find herself the masterful hunter. Instead she's surprised at herself for noticing far too late that she was being stalked and lured for who knows how long and for who knows how far, even. The trophies in Gurr's room suggest he isn't afraid of leaving Farfields.
I thought it fitting to equip the beast crest for this fight because Hornet did not enter as a fellow hunter, nor a reaper, not even a humble wanderer. She entered as prey ā an animal ā and she would have to claw her way out like one.
