Moss Druid is one of the first characters who will give you a side quest in Hollow Knight: Silksong. While the task of picking three Mossberries seems easy, it’s not that simple. Before the Druid gives you the Berry Picking quest, you probably already have one Mossberry from exploring the first areas in the Moss Grotto. The other two berries are a bit trickier to get, though.

Here’s a map with all the locations of the three mossberries you need and how to get them. Below the map, I’ll explain in detail how to get each one in the order in which you’ll find them from the start of the game. You can keep reading to also learn more about the effect of the charm you get from the quest reward, Druid’s Eye.

First Mosberry

You’ll find the first Mosberry in the upper left side of where you started the game. You’ll see a huge block floating in the air that looks like stairs you can jump on. Climb on these platforms and keep following the platform path to the right, and you’ll see a Mosberry. You won’t see the item in the screenshot below because I had already picked the Mosberry, but it will be there when you get to this point.

Second Mosberry

The second Mosberry is in the section to the right of the first one. Keep going right, and you’ll also see platforms going up, so climb them and keep moving left as you ascend. When you’re close to the top, you’ll see a mosquito-like monster and, if you jump, you’ll see the Mosberry hanging from the ceiling. Your jump isn’t high enough to reach it.

Jump to the platform to the left of the Mosberry and wait for the mosquito to attack downward. When it attacks and starts flying back up, jump in its direction and press down and the attack button at the same time. Hornet will do a diagonal attack to the bottom right and, if your aim is precise, will bounce up towards the Mosberry, letting you reach it and use a normal attack to slash it down and pick it up on the ground. Check out the GIF below on how this might look.

Third Mossberry

The final Mossberry is just below the Moss Druid room. Go back to where you met the Moss Druid, exit their room, and head down. In the area you’ve just dropped, drop down from the platform and hit the wall on the right a few times to break it and reveal a secret room. Once you go in, you’ll find the third and final Mossberry. Now, you can just climb back up to return it all to the Moss Druid.

Berry Picking quest reward

The Moss Druid will be so grateful you’ve given them three Mossberries that they will reward you with Druid’s Eye, a charm you can equip in the blue slot. Now, when Hornet takes damage, you will see a bit of moss in your silk thread. If she’s hit a second time, that slime will turn into one silk loop.

I don’t think this charm is great since it requires you to get hit twice to generate a mere silk loop. But in my case, when I’ve completed the Berry Picking quest, the Druid’s Eye was the only blue charm I had, so it was better than nothing. I recommend you still equip it, but keep other blue slot charms in mind for a potential upgrade in the future.
