Descent into the Hollow

Last checked · Checked against the development build

How do you get through the Hollow in Stillskin Forest?

Take the Miner's Lantern from the crypt cave and the boulder moves. In the Weeping Gallery, the bridge over the chasm rises only while a living player or the pushable stone stands on a pressure plate; solo players push the stone onto the plate. At the Root Gate, pull both levers (about 40 studs apart) within 6 seconds of each other.

1. The boulder

In the crypt cave, take the Miner's Lantern. The boulder grinds aside: "THE LIGHT OPENS THE WAY".

  • There is a pressure plate on each side of the chasm. The bridge rises out of the pit while a living player, or the pushable stone, is on a plate.
  • In co-op: one player stands on the plate while the others cross.
  • Solo: push the stone onto the plate (walk into it). "Hollis' Last Words", found here, says so.
  • The bridge stays up for 3 seconds after the plate is released.
  • If you fall in, a ladder gets you back out.

3. The Root Gate

Two levers sit in alcoves about 40 studs apart: "TWO HANDS AT ONCE". Pull both within 6 seconds of each other. It is easy with two players and a sprint for one.
