Overview
- PC Gamer and PCGamesN publish step-by-step routes that reach Mount Fay via The Slab from the Choral Chambers, with a bench just before the entrance.
- Both guides identify the Faydown Cloak as the reward at the peak, granting Hornet a double jump that opens new paths and eases late-game sections.
- Writers warn that the mountain’s cold inflicts damage over time away from heat sources, forcing quick movement between lamps and making water especially punishing.
- The ascent is described as some of Silksong’s toughest platforming, demanding a full toolkit of movement abilities and prudent prep such as maps, currency, and upgrades.
- Checkpoints are available through unlockable benches on the route, and PC Gamer further reports the Clawline is required and the cloak activates by playing the Needolin at a tuning fork, after which the cold hazard abates at the summit.
