How to Recover Lost Rosaries & Prevent Rosary Loss in Silksong

In the game Silksong, it’s particularly frustrating when you perish on your journey back to your cocoon and have lost some Rosaries in the process. Unfortunately, if you die again before retrieving Hornet’s cocoon, there is no means to recover these lost Rosaries. However, there are several strategies players can employ to regain dropped Rosaries or even prevent their loss altogether.

In order to prevent losing your Rosary in Silksong, players have two options: they can pre-string their Rosaries or employ a trick that allows Hornet to return to her last resting spot. The only way to regain Rosaries following death in Silksong is by retrieving your cocoon; however, using a Silkeater item enables you to bypass this backtracking process entirely.

Save and Quit Exploit

Quit Before You Die, then Reload to Spawn At The Last Bench Rested At

When you close and restart the game ‘Silksong’, it will bring Hornet back to the last resting spot on a bench she previously occupied. Since ‘Silksong’ does not record the specific location of Hornet when the game is closed, you can exit and reopen your saved game file to make her teleport back to a Bench, regardless of impending death.

The exploit for “Silksong” allows you to save the game until the ‘Saving’ symbol shows up at the lower right corner of the screen. If you get hit and lose your final Mask of HP during this period, and pause the game immediately before the ‘Saving’ icon appears, you can then save, exit, reload, and return to a Bench without losing any Rosaries.

As a cinephile, I’d say it this way: “Since we all know that a trip back to the last checkpoint is inevitable if we croak, and let’s face it, who wants to waste precious Rosaries? Employing that clever ‘Silksong’ save trick can shave off some time and aggravation. Cheers to smarter gaming!

“Although your current location won’t be remembered, any items or skills you gather before exiting will still be present when Hornet returns to the Bench.”

Convert Rosaries Into Rosary Strings

You Don’t Lose Rosary Strings When Hornet Dies

At the beginning of the game, you’ll come across Pebb in Bone Bottom, a merchant who sells an item known as a Rosary String. To produce one Rosary String consumable item, you need 80 regular Rosaries. Interestingly, when broken, it awards 60 Rosaries. It is important to note that having this item added to Hornet’s inventory does not affect her Rosary wallet.

As a cinephile, I’d rephrase that intriguingly for you like this: “In Silksong, unlike real life where we part with possessions upon our departure, the art of transforming your Rosaries into Rosary Strings grants you the unique ability to inherit these sacred items even after your character’s demise.

There are numerous vendors and methods available that transform different quantities of Rosaries into Strings. However, the value of the String will always be 20 less than the amount spent to create it. For example, Pebb can change 80 Rosaries into a string valued at 60, whereas in Bellhart, Frey can convert 140 Rosaries into a Rosary Necklace worth only 120 Rosaries.

Use a Silkeater Item

Instantly Recover Your Cocoon Without Backtracking

In the game “Silksong,” upon reaching Act 2, players will encounter an item called the Silkeater. This consumable breaks Hornet’s cocoon instantly, refills her Silk Meter, and recovers Rosaries for her.

In the game known as “Silksong,” Silkeater items are scarce and are consumed when used. It’s recommended that you only use a Silkeater if you’re uncertain about returning to a Hornet’s cocoon conventionally, or in extreme situations, to retrieve a large number of Rosaries without the risk of perishing on your way back to your cocoon.
