Mastering Bell Beast: A Guide to Triumph in Silksong

05 Sep 2025

In the dynamic world of Silksong, players encounter a series of challenging bosses, among which the Bell Beast stands out. Nestled in The Marrow, located at the map's top left, this formidable foe can be accessed via the northeastern Mosslands' Mosshome or by scaling from Bone Bottom. Overcoming the Bell Beast is not just a test of skill but a gateway to the first fast travel station in Silksong, as the creature becomes a mount, revolutionizing mobility across Pharmloom.

The encounter with Bell Beast is marked by intricately phased combat requiring strategic dodging and timed attacks. Central to prevailing in this battle is an understanding of its three behaviors: a jump, a run, and a yell that prompts a rain of bells.

Combat Phases

The first phase initiates with the emergence of the beast signaled by a dust cloud from either side of the arena. Players are advised to hold a central position, aiding in anticipation of the beast's dive or floor dart. The tactic here is straightforward: jump over the advancing beast, and strike when it lands. When it jumps, move toward its landing to inflict damage before it disappears underground. Key to survival is discerning the sounds indicating whether the beast will run or jump, ensuring players can react swiftly.

The dust, on occasion, appears in the arena's middle, ushering in two bells. Players must keenly observe and respond to bell fall patterns, jumping over any rolling bells.

As phase one concludes, signified by the beast's mid-arena surfacing and scream, players can seize the opportunity to deliver two or three hits before dealing with a barrage of falling bells. Distinct rays of light reveal the impending impact points, and strategically positioning at one end of the arena minimizes the need to dodge numerous falling bells.

Transition and Phase Two

The transition brings an escalation in difficulty. Phase two mimics the first but introduces complexity with a third bell during the middle eruption. The strategy remains consistent: anticipate, dodge, and exploit openings for attack amidst the chaos.

Victory and Beyond

Upon defeating the Bell Beast, the boon of a fast travel mount transforms exploration in Pharmloom. It facilitates rapid transit across the vast game world, a significant asset for players aiming to streamline their journey. Furthers save progress at designated benches, where resting also provides healing for the protagonist, Hornet.

This encounter with the Bell Beast is an emblematic testament to the intricate blend of strategy and skill required to master Silksong. Each phase presents layers of challenge, rewarding players with the ability to traverse the game world with newfound agility.
