\n\n\n\n

Queen’s Garden<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Visit to Millibell, the Banker<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First, follow the upper left path to Fog Canyon. There, stop by Millibell, the Banker. It is optional, but if you deposit at least 3350 Geo and then use a Bank, when you return, you will discover that the bank was fake when you knock on the front of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reunion with Cloth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Returning to Fog Canyon, use the center left exit. Go under the spikes and continue left. If you saved Cloth in the Ancient Basin, you’ll find it here. After a brief interaction, continue down the platforms and exit to the lower left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding Cornifer and Sleeping Spirits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In this new area, you will find Cornifer and his much-needed map. Near him, prepare for close combat by adjusting your Charms. To the right of the Cornifer, put the spirits of Caelif and Beast to sleep with your Dream Nail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Searching for Keys and Essences<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Not far away, you’ll need to destroy some scaffolding to open a shortcut and look for the Key of Love. Return, activate the Dream tree on the left and collect the Essence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Activating Banks and Unblocking Paths<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Then go to a new screen on the left where you will activate a Bank with 150 Geo. Advance through the next areas, facing enemies and unlocking more shortcuts, until you find and rescue a Grub and collect a Hallownest Seal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marmu Challenge and Tram Station<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After passing through Marmu’s spirit, activate the nearby Tram Station. Marmu is a simpler challenge, and can be easily repelled with the Nail Art move, Cyclone Slash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boss: Traitor Lord<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This boss can be challenging because of the limited space. Use the Shadow Cloak to avoid his attacks, especially the ripple attack. Cloth can help during battle, giving you openings to attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meeting with the White Lady<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After the fight, follow until you find the White Lady, who will give you a White Fragment. Return to the Tram Station and go to Rainha Station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boss: Elder Hu<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Elder Hu offers more direct combat, with attacks that are easy to dodge, especially using the Shadow Cloak. After the fight, explore the area to find another Dream Tree and collect more Essence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continue your exploration to the Fungal Core and finally descend into the depths to collect a Mask Fragment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Deepnest<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Preparing for Confrontation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First, go to the Bank located on the left side of the map. Here is a good time to organize your Charms, thinking about the battle ahead. Then, exit the Bank screen through a large hole on the left, entering the Abandoned Railway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boss: Galien<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At the Abandoned Railway, go left until you find Galien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Galien is not the most difficult challenge. Use your Shadow Cloak to avoid the spinning ax and attack in between. Keep the strategy and he will soon be defeated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the battle, don’t forget to pick up the Lifeblood Cocoon above the battle site. Return to the previous screen and exit to the right again. Keep going left until you find an exit that takes you to a secret path, revealing a Putrid Egg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exploring the Deep Nest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Venture across the platforms until you find a Grub. To reach it, you need to go around on the left side. Afterwards, head to the building known as the Weavers’ Den.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Den of the Weavers<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Inside the Lair, explore until you find the Weavers’ Song Charm in the top left corner. Once the reward has been collected, go back and activate the Dream tree on the previous screen to collect more Essence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenge in the Far Village<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When you arrive in the Far Village, head to a building where a fake Bank will start a new challenge in the Beast’s Nest. Here, you’ll find a Grub under a false floor, and at the top, a spirit awaiting rest, after which you’ll have an encounter with the Hornet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Details on Deep Nest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Make sure to collect the Putrid Egg on the right and the Seal of Hallownest on the left, both items that can be permanently lost. The way out is to the left of the Hornet, leading to a Bank and an exit hidden under a false floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Return to the Surface<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Activate the Station and follow the Stables’ instructions to reach the Stables’ Nest. There, collect a Vase Fragment and head to the Howling Cliffs to face Gorb. After the confrontation, use a Super Dash towards Dirtmouth and take the Stables to King’s Station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Kingdom’s Edge<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Recovering your Geo with Millibelle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you entrusted your Geo to Millibelle, now is the time to get it back. Head to the Casa de Pleasures, where you’ll find her relaxing in the hot spring at the top. Get ready for a surprise and take back what’s yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming Down to the Challenge<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The next objective awaits below the Stables Station you came from. Get ready for an important fight. Jump into the water and keep going right until you find the location of the next battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boss: The Collector<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This opponent has a habit of constantly jumping, releasing glass boxes that release enemies. Maintaining focus here is no problem as long as you position yourself properly on the screen. Your jumps are slow, allowing you to concentrate without much difficulty. Bring the Quick Focus Charm if you find it necessary. The attack pattern is predictable, so adapt and win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After defeating The Collector, explore the area to the right and above to save the last 3 Grubs! Near the last Grub, you will find the Collector’s Map, which reveals the location of any remaining Grubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boss: Markoth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Markoth is always accompanied by a floating shield and attacks with Spikes that appear randomly, moving towards him. When he accelerates the rotation of his shield, it is his moment to attack. If you can, use the Dark Soul attack against him when he’s on the walls. The fight requires patience and precise timing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Checking the Remaining Grubs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After beating Markoth, take a look at the world map to see if you left any Grub behind. It’s time to pay one last visit to the Father of Grubs. Use the King’s Station Stables to return to Dirtmouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Transformation of Grubs’ Father<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When you return to the Father of Grubs after using a Bench, you will find a curious scene, indicating a possible transformation of the Grubs. The ‘Metamorphosis’ achievement suggests that there is more to this story than meets the eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, take the Stables to the Resting Grounds to continue your journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Resting Grounds<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Visiting the Seer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First, pay the Seer a visit and collect the prizes she has to offer, based on the amount of Essence you have collected on your journey so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Search of Treasure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With the map in hand, follow the path until you find a chest full of Geo. Look at the false ceiling above the chest and break it to access a new area. Go right, enter the building and talk to Gray Mourner to receive a very special gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Delicate Flower Quest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The task that the Gray Mourner has entrusted to you involves taking a delicate flower to the tomb of the traitorous child, located in the Queen’s Gardens. However, there are some strict rules:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Avoid the Stables:<\/strong>\u00a0Using them will break the flower.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Stay Intact:<\/strong>\u00a0Losing even one Health Mask will result in the flower being destroyed, forcing you to start over.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    To make things easier, I suggest clearing the path of enemies before starting the mission, without sitting on Benches to prevent them from reappearing. Detailed images of the route can guide you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    During the quest, you will have one last encounter with Quirrel, earning you the ‘Witness’ feat. Tiso will also be encountered in passing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    At the end, you will need to cross a river of acid to reveal a secret passage to the Mist Canyon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Finishing the Mission<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Place the Delicate Flower on the traitorous child’s grave in the Queen’s Gardens. After completing this delicate task, return to the Resting Grounds (if you didn’t use Banks, simply reload the game) and talk to Gray Mourner again to receive a Mask Fragment as a reward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    With the mission complete, use the Stables to go to the Infected Crossings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    Infected Crossroads<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

    Discovering Secrets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    After leaving the Stables Station, follow the trail above which takes you to the left. There, you will find a fake wall waiting to be broken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Crossing the Hidden Path<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Inside the secret room, there will be a path full of thorns. Use Super Dash to cross it safely and exit at the top. When you reach the end, prepare for combat: the doors will close and you will need to defeat all the enemies to proceed. With the area clear, head right and collect the Glowing Uterus Charm. Go back to the secret passage and exit the screen to the left, heading towards the False Knight’s room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Boss: Failed Champion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    This boss has similar attacks to the False Knight, but they are much faster. Contact with the body or the wad will cause double damage to his mask, and he will create shockwaves one after the other. The best way to dodge it is with a double jump and using your Shadow Cloak. When the boss is down, take the opportunity to concentrate and attack him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Continuing the Journey<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    After winning, take the Stables to the Resting Grounds. Visit the Seer to obtain the Awakened Dream Nail skill and the final Mask Fragment. Then return to Esta\u00e7\u00e3o do Rei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Boss: White Defender<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Head to the Ancient Basin, but before you get there, take the upper left exit towards the Royal Water Paths. See that platform to your left? Dive below it and prepare for another fight. Use the Dream Nail on the Dung Defender’s spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The attacks are mostly the same as the Dung Defender, but faster, and there is a new attack that creates earth waves. Use your Shadow Cloak to dodge. Since it’s a battle against a Dream Boss, you don’t die if you lose, allowing for the safe use of Fragile Strength and\/or Fragile Heart. Fragile Strength and Mark of Pride will be very useful in this battle due to the boss’s amount of health and the need to attack at close range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Leave the screen to the right, go down to the bottom and exit to the left, heading towards the Ancient Basin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    Ancient Basin<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

    Preparations for Combat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    First of all, use the Bench to prepare for the fight that comes next. As it is a confrontation with a Dream Boss, keep the Fragile Strength Charm activated without fear of losing it, and think about also using the Defender’s Crest or the Spore Mushroom to help against the Infected Balloons. From the Bank on the left, use Super Dash to the left and continue until you find the spirit of the Broken Vase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Boss: Lost Relative<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    This confrontation will be similar to the Broken Vase, so use the Fragile Strength Charm and the Defender’s Crest or Spore Mushroom as support. After victory, head to the Palace Fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Crossing the White Palace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    In the White Palace, use your Awakened Dream Nail on the white armor to enter. Inside, go past the mechanical bees, use the Bench and then advance to the upper right, overcoming platforms and challenges until you find and beat the Kingsmould.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After defeating him, navigate the platforms until you activate a lever above the place where the Kingsmould was defeated. Return to the previous screen and climb the platform. Continue going right, passing through the blade challenges, until you reach the top and exit to the left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Facing the Palace Challenges<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Navigate the Palace’s intricate challenges, alternating between avoiding blades and activating levers to light the way and open passages. A sequence of platforms will take you to a point where you will need to use your double jump and Dash to reach a distant platform. Persist through the obstacles until you reach and activate the skeleton, collecting the other White Fragment to form the King Soul Charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Revealing Secrets in the Abyss<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    With King Soul equipped, descend to the bottom of the Abyss to discover a hidden area. There, use the Dream Nail on the Black Egg to transform King Soul into Empty Heart, unlocking an alternate ending to your journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Before closing, visit the Seer one last time to achieve the Ascension feat. Then, return to Dirtmouth via the Stables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    The Grimm Troupe<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

    First of all, sit on the Bench and equip your Fragile Charms. Then, talk to Divine in the tent to make these charms unbreakable. Each upgrade will cost a considerable amount of Geo, so if you’re strapped for resources, sell your collectibles to Relic Seeker Lemm. Don’t forget to equip your Grimmchild Charm and create a Dream Portal next to the Bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Chasing the Flames<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Now, open the map and locate the indicated flames, facing the Grimmkin Novice in three different locations. You will repeat this process three times, facing increasingly stronger enemies. After defeating each one, use the Dream Portal to return to Dirtmouth and talk to Grimm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Facing the Troupe’s Enemies<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Grimmkin Novice:<\/strong>\u00a0Wait for him to attack before counterattacking. Sharp Shadow and Unbreakable Strength are essential enchantments here.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Grimmkin Master:<\/strong>\u00a0Similar to Novice, but with slightly stronger and more varied attacks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Grimm Troupe Master:<\/strong>\u00a0The fight requires you to dodge a lot, making Sharp Shadow essential. The only safe time to heal is during Grimm’s cape spike attack. This battle will require practice.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Nightmare Grimmkin:<\/strong>\u00a0The most challenging version of the Grimmkin. Maintain Sharp Shadow and Unbreakable Strength.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Confrontation with the Nightmare King<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      After defeating the Grimmkin, enter the large tent and confront the Nightmare King with his Dream Nail. This combat is an intensified version of Grimm Troupe Master, requiring quick reflexes and a good charm strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Alternative way<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      If you prefer, you can speak to Brumm near the Lantern in the Howling Cliffs to obtain the Banishment feat, an alternative to directly confronting the Nightmare King.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Final Part of the Game<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

      Before facing the final boss, you have the chance to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Complete the challenges in the Coliseum of Fools<\/strong>\u00a0to earn a special achievement.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Visit Salubra<\/strong>\u00a0to receive her blessing, which also unlocks another achievement.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Defeat all enemies<\/strong>\u00a0in the game to secure another achievement, as well as overcome the remaining Dream Bosses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        For those seeking completeness or wishing to revisit choices, such as saving or ignoring Zote, sparing or eliminating the Blacksmith, the game can be resumed after the final confrontation. There are also extra challenges, such as completing the game in record time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        When you feel ready, head to the Temple of the Black Egg, located in the Infected Crossings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Temple of The Black Egg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        This place had been dormant since the beginning, waiting for this moment. Enter the temple and advance until you find a Bank. Next to it is an artifact that will reveal your game completion percentage \u2014 by following this guide, you should have reached 107%. Move forward, destroy the chains and prepare for the decisive battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The Hollow Knight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Combat unfolds in several phases, with the Hollow Knight launching a series of attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Phase 1:<\/strong>\u00a0You will face a three-hit combo, a dash, and a jump towards you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Phase 2:<\/strong>\u00a0In this stage, he will shoot orange spheres and perform a jump followed by a strike on the ground, creating pillars of fire.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Phase 3:<\/strong>\u00a0The Knight will float, shooting orange spheres throughout the environment and will occasionally perform a series of ground slams.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Phase 4:<\/strong>\u00a0Here, he will resort to jumping attack and swinging his Nail. At the climax, you will have the opportunity to Concentrate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          The aerial attack is quite effective, especially during the dash attacks. Take advantage of these moments to deal extra damage. Use the Shadow Cloak to dodge attacks and find safe areas to avoid the orange spheres, which can be an opportunity to heal yourself or use your Shadow Soul from a distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Congratulations, you’ve finished Hollow Knight!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
