Hornet's Fourth encounter
I just got the Shade Cloak upgrade but Hornet isn't showing up. I read that she won't show up if you do certain things before going to the abyss , but i still don't know what I did wrong there.
I've had all the previous encounters/fights, and im wondering if there's anything i can do, or she will never show up again? Also, will it affect my %? I already finished the game once, and im going for the 100% now.
Thanks in advance!

I believe this is correct. There are 2 (kinda) things related to the Abyss with Hornet: 1. she will only appear in Deepnest if you get the Kings Brand (which unlocks the Abyss) first, and 2. she will appear at the entrance after you get the Void Heart very very late game.

All right, i'll go check deepnest first, and if she isnt there i'll dig further into the game first. Thanks for the answers!

No, the Void Heart is not the trigger for her appearing at the Abyss entrance.
The trigger is Shade Cloak. She will not appear if you 'bench-warp' out of the Abyss though. You have to physically climb out of the Abyss after obtaining the Shade Cloak.
It's possible that Abyssal Shriek is also required to trigger the event, but I am positive that the Shade Cloak is the only requirement.

Ah, I remember that now, she says somethinn about you being able to choose how to end it and that one way is harder than the other referring to collecting the Kingsoul. I think I just had her Black Egg Temple dialogue mixed up in my head there.

My bad OP.

For the record, the Deepnest encounter only occurs if you get the Kings Brand before you kill Herrah. And npc encounters have no bearing on % anyway, so you’re only missing out on dialogue/lore/hints at the other endings.
