Silksong Faydown Cloak Guide: Climb Mount Fay for Double Jump

I have a confession: for most of my early Silksong run, I kept staring at ceilings and thinking about the Monarch Wings. In the original Hollow Knight, that double jump opens up so much of the map, and Silksong withholds it for a long time. That is exactly why the Faydown Cloak feels like such a huge prize. It gives you a double jump and cold immunity, and you can grab it fairly soon after getting the Clawline. Sound too good to be true? It is not, but the climb is a real test.

Before you start, make sure you have the Clawline. Without it, you will be stranded on Mount Fay with no way up. You also need enough progress in The Slab to have free access to the Bellway station there, because that is the route to Mount Fay. I highly recommend running Weavelight for this entire segment. The improved grapple feel is not a luxury here; it is almost a necessity. And yes, I promise this is not a Celeste guide in disguise, even if the platforming gets spicy.
