Cómo progresar en Far Fields en Hollow Knight: Silksong (Guía completa)

Complete guide to progressing through Far Fields in Hollow Knight: Silksong. Learn how to get unstuck, find the Drifter’s Cloak, reach Greymoor, and collect the Mask Shard.

Break the Loop and Ascend to New Heights

Campos lejanos is notorious for trapping players in an endless circular route where every path seems to lead back to where you started. This frustration is intentional – the area is designed as a progression gate that requires a specific ability to escape vertically.

Understanding the Capa del vagabundo requirement, wind current mechanics, and proper progression sequence transforms Far Fields from a confusing maze into a straightforward vertical ascent to Greymoor y más allá.

This area becomes accessible through the post-Bell Beast progression paths that open up multiple new zones for exploration.

Understanding Far Fields Layout and Connections

Area Positioning in Pharloom

Far Fields connects to multiple major zones:

• East of Muelles profundos (primary access point)
• East of Hunter’s March (not directly connected, but Hunter’s March has its own challenges)
• South of Greymoor (vertical progression upward)
• Contains connection to Bellway sistema de viaje rápido

Area Overview TL;DR: East of Deep Docks → leads north to Greymoor → contains Bellway access

The Loop Problem Explained

Why players get stuck:

• Horizontal navigation appears to offer multiple paths
• All horizontal routes eventually circle back to starting areas
• Vertical progression requires specific ability not obvious to players
• No clear indication that upward movement is the solution

The “loop trap” is intentional game design that forces players to seek the Drifter’s Cloak before meaningful progression becomes possible.
