Light progression spoilers. This guide shows the route to the High Halls workbench and how to craft/equip the Cogfly Auto Companion.
Overview
Cogfly is a Red Tool that summons a winged cogwork companion which automatically targets nearby enemies. It’s great “fire‑and‑forget” DPS for rooms and a steady chip source during boss windows while you focus on movement and needling.
TL;DR
- Where: High Halls, mid/eastern verticals; crafted at a workbench.
- Requirements: Access from Choral Chambers and 1× Craftmetal.
- Why: Reliable auto‑pressure that clears mobs and chips bosses while you dodge.
- Video: Full path and crafting in the embed above.
Requirements & Materials
- Movement: Clawline/Grapple strongly recommended for the climbs between Choral Chambers → High Halls.
- Material: 1× Craftmetal to craft Cogfly.
- Bench access: You’ll equip the tool at a bench once crafted.
Route: From Choral Chambers to Cogfly
- Enter High Halls from the upper‑left of Choral Chambers using ring swings and Clawline climbs.
- Work your way toward the central/eastern vertical shafts of High Halls.
- Watch for a side room off a vertical climb containing a workbench. Community routes often highlight small grapple wheels/switches that reveal this room.
- Craft Cogfly at the bench with 1× Craftmetal, then equip at your next bench.
Need Craftmetal? Quick Options
- Vendor: Deep Docks’ Forge Daughter sells key materials for Rosaries; check her stock as you progress.
- Exploration: Early chests and side rooms in areas like The Marrow, Deep Docks, or Blasted Steps can contain Craftmetal. If short, detour through these loops.
How Cogfly Works
- Type: Red Tool (consumable uses; refilled with Shell Shards).
- Effect: Spawns an auto‑attacking cogwork companion that hunts nearby enemies.
- Best use: Pre‑cast before hectic phases so it passively pressures while you focus on survival.
Play Tips
- Arena setup: Use Cogfly as you enter an arena or a boss phase change to keep damage rolling during dodges.
- Pairings: Builds that value uptime (wide‑hitbox crests, poison/status setups) get extra value from background damage.
Troubleshooting
- Can’t find the bench: Re‑scan central/eastern verticals for small grapple wheels/switches that open side rooms.
- Stuck below High Halls: Keep pushing upward through Choral Chambers; benches and bells make the route safer.
