Just be assured that by the time you reach the end, should you have followed this guide through its steps, you will have everything you need for a 112% completion run on conquering the final challenges of the game. Hallownest is a maze, and doesn't give up its secrets easily. I know, this is somewhat counter to my opening statement about my own not knowing where things were when I first started playing, but I have found that the best way to learn where something is and how to acquire it, is to find it in-game. This guide will also not be giving a comprehensive explanation of what counts towards 112% and where such-and-such item is outside of the direction of the route it takes. It also directs players towards collecting and selling all of the Relics scattered throughout the world, which isn't strictly necessary, but is included for new players who may end up losing all of their Geo to accidental double-deaths, and if you manage to hold on to it all until the end of the game it will make certain optional purchases more attainable. Conversely, it does point out many other divergences to meet with NPC's or encounter other optional secrets that can be taken or left as desired. This guide is not an "all achievements" guide, as there is at least one that will be completely bypassed and unmentioned. I did not entirely come up with this route by myself, but I have shuffled some things around to my own tastes, cut out some backtracking, and hopefully made it more accommodating to newer players as well. This is not a coincidence, as much of it is based on them. ![]() Old hands to the game may recognize many similarities to some Speed Run routes they may have seen in this guide. Unfortunately, coming at bosses underprepared in the mid-game is somewhat unavoidable to at least some degree, so your mileage may vary. Several years and a few more play throughs later and I have come up with this route as my preferred path. I looked up a guide and followed it, but I'm a persistent filthy casual and the route that guide took led through some bosses in the middle that I struggled hard with without adequate upgrades that it wouldn't cross until much later, and I didn't have the knowledge of the game yet to go off and find what I needed on my own. Hopefully you've made it further than me, but if you're here you're probably looking for some tips and advice on where to go and how to get further. ![]() To the new players, welcome to Hallownest! My first play through I quickly got turned around and was confused as all heck even finding the first boss. This guide is written with the intention of helping the former make their way through a difficult but enjoyable game, and to help the latter to shake the dust off. With Silksong hopefully just around the corner, the original Hollow Knight is likely to see a resurgence in new players coming to the game, as well as some old ones coming back to give it another go.
