SilksongLoadoutRandomizer
Randomizes Hornet's Crest and tool loadouts on bench rests, hotkeys, or boss kills.Silksong Loadout Randomizer
A BepInEx plugin for Hollow Knight: Silksong that randomizes your equipped tools and silk skills. This mod was inspired by MyPetCactus and his randomized build run on YouTube.
Features
- Bench Randomization: Randomize your entire loadout every time you rest at a bench.
- Boss Defeat Randomization: Automatically randomize your loadout when you strike the final blow on a boss.
- On-Demand Hotkey: Press F10 (configurable) to instantly shuffle your loadout at any time.
- In-Game Notifications: Uses the native Silksong banner UI to notify you when a randomization occurs.
- Safe Persistence: Built-in save protection intercepts the game's background threading to ensure illegitimate or unowned items are never permanently written to your save file.
Configuration
All options can be configured in-game via the BepInEx ConfigurationManager menu (F1 by default). You can customize exactly what gets randomized:
- Include/Exclude Crests, Silk Skills, Red Tools, Blue Tools, or Yellow Tools.
- Bypass unlock requirements to allow the randomizer to give you items you haven't found yet!
- Includes robust support for all 48 boss encounters, gracefully handling multi-boss fights without misfiring.
