The Ultimate Hollow Knight Geo Farming Guide for Beginners

The Ultimate Hollow Knight Geo Farming Guide for Beginners

Welcome to the unforgiving world of Hallownest! As a newly awakened knight, you've probably noticed that Geo—the kingdom's currency—is a little hard to come by. You need it for everything, from buying essential maps from Iselda and crucial items from Sly, to getting new charms and nail upgrades. Getting the Geo you need for a new charm or a stag station can feel like an impossible grind.

But don't worry, even a small bug can become rich! We've scoured the forgotten depths of the kingdom to bring you the best and most efficient ways to farm Geo for beginners. Get ready to fill your coin purse and power up your journey through Hallownest.

Method 1: The Beginner's Loop in Forgotten Crossroads

The Forgotten Crossroads is your first stop, and it's also your most reliable early-game source of Geo. This method is simple, effective, and works every time.

• The Strategy: Pick a route through the Crossroads that includes a high density of enemies. For example, a loop from the starting bench to the area where you fight the Gruz Mother. Simply kill every single enemy you see—Husk guards, Gruzzers, and those pesky Tiktiks.

• The Key Charm: For this method, the Gathering Swarm charm is your best friend. Found early on in the Forgotten Crossroads, this charm causes a small swarm of bugs to follow you and automatically collect any Geo dropped by enemies. No more missing a Geo cluster because it flew off a ledge!

• The Reset: Once you've completed your loop, head back to a nearby bench to rest. This will respawn all the enemies, allowing you to repeat the loop as many times as you need.

Method 2: The Geo Rock & Other Hidden Caches

Beyond defeating enemies, there are several Geo stashes hidden in plain sight.

• The Geo Rock: Located in the lower part of the Forgotten Crossroads, you'll find a small rock that looks like a geo crystal. Attack it, and it will drop a large amount of Geo. The best part? This rock respawns after a set amount of time or after you defeat a few enemies, making it a reliable, one-stop source of quick cash in the early game.

• Unbreakable Geo: Certain Geo deposits are found throughout Hallownest that don't shatter when hit. These are usually in quiet corners and can be picked up with a single strike, offering an easy windfall. Keep your eyes peeled for glowing spots!

Method 3: The Fungal Wastes Route

Once you’ve made some progress and feel more confident, the Fungal Wastes offers a slightly more challenging but much more rewarding farming route.

• The Strategy: The Fungal Wastes are home to Fungal Bouncers and Fungal Fuzzies, which drop a decent amount of Geo. You can create a quick loop from the bench near the Mantis Village to the right and back again, taking out every bouncy mushroom along the way.

• The Benefit: The enemies here give more Geo than those in the Forgotten Crossroads, and it’s a good way to practice your nail skills on more erratic foes. This method is great for stocking up on Geo for things like the Lumafly Lantern from Sly.
