Continue left into a large, open area with several platforms and enemies. Unlock and rest at the bench, then interact with Cornifer to buy the City of Tears map (4/13) for 90 geo:Įxit to the left and meet Zote the Mighty on your way through this area. Climb up to the platform on the right and you will see Cornifer and a toll machine that can unlock a bench for 150 geo. Defeat them to unlock the doors, then take exit the leading up. Take the lift to the next level but be ready to fight a few enemies as soon as you go into the room to the left. Climb up and use the lift on the left to go up one level where you can kill a Winged Sentry and rescue a Grub (7/46). Drop down to hit a lever, then make your way up and through the top exit. Drop down a level and go right across the lift shaft and into an area that is now accessible. You wall fall to the screen below where you can hit another lever that opens a few doors immediately below. Make your way to the top and hit a lever to open a nearby door, then drop down the now open path under the lever. Follow the path past several enemies until you reach the top exit.
Take the lift up and go left at the first stop. Loot the geo chest, then climb back up the the previous screen above.
In the unfortunate circumstance that you enter Crystal Peak without the Lumafly Lantern you will be stuck in the area.Interact with him to sell the Wanderer's Journal and Hallownest Seal, then go left and hit a switch to open a nearby door. when sliding down a wall, using the crystal heart will freeze the player in place until release (if you press the Super Dash button halfway down a wall you wont continue to slide down and will instead stay stuck in place until you relase the button). Continue heading east until you've reached the end where you'll find the Crystal "Heart" of a golem that is still beating. From here, continue on the east where you'll be going around the map and will head back down to an area of an old mining machine with complex platforms. Once you're in, head a bit east from the map and climb to the top of the map. Head to the east bottom of Forgotten Crossroads towards the entrance leading to Crystal Peak and make your way to the top area where you'll find a brittle ground - from here use Desolate Dive to destroy the ground where you'll be able to pave your way into Crystal Peak.
The Lumafly Lantern, while not necessarily required to get the Cryatal Heart, is heavily reccomended for this area as you will not be able to leave Crystal Peak without it until you get the Crystal Heart.
Crystal Peak - first, you will need to acquire the Desolate Dive spell and Mantis Claw to traverse the area you will go to. However, if the enemy is killed with this ability, The Knight will continue to fly across the screen until being interrupted. Even though Crystal Heart is interrupted by landing on an enemy, it deals 10 damage. The ability will be interrupted if The Knight hits a wall, takes damage from an enemy or environmental hazard, jumping, or by pressing the Super Dash button again. After releasing the button at full charge, The Knight will blast off and fly horizontally - allowing players to easily close in huge gaps. To activate Crystal Heart, hold down the SUPER DASH button while on the ground or hooked onto a wall for The Knight to focus on collecting energy. As players progress through the game, these skills that are categorized as abilities are acquired from completing tasks and are found from certain areas, these abilities help The Knight travel and survive the depths of Hallownest - abilities do not require SOUL to be activated.
The crystal's energy can be channelled to launch the bearer forward at dangerous speeds.Ĭrystal Heart is an Ability in Hollow Knight. The energy core of an old mining golem, fashioned around a potent crystal.
