Fragile Strength in Hollow Knight is one out of the 45 Charms that is found in the game.

Fragile Strength Information

Fragile Strength is a charm that strengthens the attack of the Nail by 50% allowing the players to have an offensive approach when it comes to enemy and boss encounters - obviously, as its name says "Fragile", this charm breaks if The Knight is killed, and the only way to repair a broken charm is to visit the merchant Leg Eater and pay him for that service.

If a player dies while facing a boss in a dream, Fragile Strength will not break.

Fragile Strength can be upgraded to its unbreakable version, Unbreakable Strength.

Fragile Strength Acquisition

• Location: Fungal Wastes
