How To Get the Reaper Crest in Hollow Knight Silksong
You find the Reaper Crest in the Chapel of the Reaper in Greymoore, a fitting location for the crest. To reach here, you have to start off at Halfway Home and head in the general west direction. Once you reach here, you’ll find a platforming section with a rotating cogwheel in the background. Go all the way up and open the ceiling by hitting the lever. Once you go up, be ready for an ambush.
You’ll have to survive four waves of enemies during this period. Once you deal with that, the ceiling above you will give way to another floor. You then simply have to go all the way up to find the Reaper Crest.
