Game Guide by Ornstein on Sep 14, 2025

The Skewered Organ is a specialised material in Hollow Knight: Silksong that requires piercing attacks to obtain. To farm this item, you will need either the Long Pin or the Sting Shard, tools that allow you to pierce enemies effectively. These tools can be found or purchased depending on your progression in the game.

Tools Required

Long Pin: A pickup item located in Shellwood. To find it, make your way through Shellwood and enter the designated room where the tool is placed.

Sting Shard: A vendor item available from the same trader who sells the Cog Work, located in Sclave within the Coral Chambers, once the trader has been unlocked.

Both tools function well, though the Long Pin is easier to acquire since it only requires exploration.

Tool Maintenance

Each time you use tools and rest at a bench, they consume Shell Shards for replenishment. If your tools run out of charges, collect shell shards to restore their usability. This ensures you can continue farming without interruption.

Farming Strategy

When you have the Long Pin or Sting Shard on, use piercing attacks on targets to get Skewered Organs. The Long Pin has unusual range features that can be a bit challenging to master at first, but it becomes effective once you become accustomed to them. Keep farming until you have the minimum number of organs.
