Cartographer: the one you lose by pushing too far

Cartographer — 36.75%. Get the map for all 28 areas of Pharloom.

And the warning to read before you start exploring: maps are bought from Shakra, and you have to find her in each area before pushing too far ahead. It is not a collectible you pick up off the ground whenever you remember: it depends on a character who moves through the world at her own pace.

That makes this the most fragile of the nine. It is not lost through difficulty or through failing to find a hidden object: it is lost by moving faster than the game.

The rest of the block, ordered by percentage:

| Trophy | What it asks | Have it | |---|---|---| | Transported | 6 Ventrica stations | 53.73% | | Connected | 10 bellways | 51.82% | | Regenerated | 3 silk hearts | 40.62% | | Crested | 7 crests | 37.11% | | Cartographer | 28 maps | 36.75% | | Woven | 6 silk skills | 36.40% | | Expanded | 18 spool fragments | 31.10% | | Masked | 20 mask shards | 30.71% | | Arsenal | 51 tools | 28.30% |

The two transport systems sit at the top — 53.73% and 51.82% — because opening them is useful while you play, not only at the end. The bellways are the kingdom's fast-travel network and the Ventrica stations are the second system, in the Citadel.

Careful

Maps are bought from Shakra and you have to find her in each area before pushing too far. It is this game's only collectible you lose by moving fast rather than by not looking.

The 51 tools and the three upgrade systems

Arsenal — 28.30%. Obtain all 51 tools in the game.

It is Silksong's largest collectible and the lowest of the nine: only one player in four closes it. And the reason is that they do not come from one place: there are tools from shops, from exploration, from quests and from optional content. No single route picks them all up.

Hornet's three upgrade systems each have their own trophy, and they are worth telling apart because people confuse them:

Masked — 30.71%. The 20 mask shards scattered through Pharloom, which max out Hornet's health.

Expanded — 31.10%. The 18 spool fragments, which max out her silk reserve.

Regenerated — 40.62%. The 3 silk hearts. And here is the important difference: they are not scattered collectibles, they are unique upgrades, and each is obtained at a marked point in the adventure. That is why its percentage is ten points above the other two: you do not have to find them, you have to get there.

And the two customisation systems:

Crested — 37.11%. The 7 crests. Each one reconfigures Hornet's attack, silk and tool slots: they are not cosmetic, they are different playstyles.

Woven — 36.40%. Bind all 6 silk skills, the special techniques equipped at the bench. Here is the nuance that already appears in the game's first trophy: finding them is not enough, you have to bind them.

Other Hollow Knight: Silksong guides

Why the Silksong platinum forces two playthroughs
The three Grand Mother Silk endings lock each other out. Here is what that means in practice and how to plan your runs.
The two timed trophies in Silksong: 5 hours and 30 hours
Speedrunner and Speed Completion are the trophies that decide the platinum. They sit at 12.09% and 10.70%, right on top of the platinum itself.
Silksong has 34 trophies on PS5 and 52 achievements on Steam: what changes
The PC version has 18 achievements that do not exist on PlayStation, Steel Soul mode included. Compared against Valve's official data.
The 30 lost fleas: the per-area split and the shortcut almost nobody uses
They are spread across 21 areas, they do not mark themselves on the map, and three are special. But one flea sells you the location of all the others and marks them on your own map.
You fight Lace twice, and they are two different trophies
From 88.37% on the first Lace duel to 55.55% on the second: the gap between those numbers is precisely the difficulty of the rematch. Nine wish and boss trophies, and which to save for the untimed run.
The six first times: finding a silk skill is not enough, you have to bind it
Six tutorial trophies running from 99.90% to 73.60%, and the verb to grasp from the first one: in Silksong silk skills are bound, not picked up.
