Hollow Knight tips for beginners
Hollow Knight players will enter an insect kingdom devastated, ruined by a dangerous infectious disease. Even the rulers there have abandoned this place since the onset of illness.
As players travel through the forgotten streets and crumbling ruins of the once great kingdom, players will uncover the truth about the fate of Hallownest, hidden behind mystery and time. But Hallownest is not for the faint of heart as the challenges ahead can be tough and the road to glory is not always smooth.
If you are still new to the game, follow these Hollow Knight tips to stay ready for the challenges ahead and successfully overcome them.
Collect Geo
Geo is the currency used in Hallownest and can be earned in many ways. Players will receive Geo after killing regular enemies and refilling their Soul meter if successful.
There are also Geos scattered around the map that can be accessed by pressing them repeatedly to eliminate and eventually collect the amount.
Earning money becomes much easier as the story progresses and the world opens up, but players can have a hard time building up their finances at first. There are often cases where Geo will fall into inaccessible areas, such as spikes.
This is when the Gathering Swarm charm comes into play. When equipped, this charm will spawn a small swarm of insects, collect any Geo and bring it back. This is most useful when saving on higher fare items like the Lumafly Lantern (which can carry up to 1800 Geo).
The Gathering Swarm can be purchased from Sly in Dirtmouth after the player interacts with him in the abandoned village at the end of the Forgotten Crossroad via Mother Gruz and near Salubra's shop.
Follow the humming
Players will quickly discover that Hallownest is a fairly large insect kingdom, so navigating can be difficult as the world continues to unfold. This is why Cornifer, the cartographer, will be the best companion any player needs.
Cornifer can be found in a fixed location for every area of the map that the gamer can explore. Players should listen for humming when entering a new area to know where Cornifer has established his temporary location. Given how winding and confusing some of the roads are, it's recommended that players purchase a map from Cornifer on the go.
Certain events will trigger Cornifer to leave his familiar location and get a small card from the cartographer instead. He explains that he can't go around and advises players to head to Dirtmouth, where the respective map in question can be purchased from his shop and Iselda.
