Welcome to the Crystalfire Wood. This area has some tough hidden secrets. Good luck!
Let me know in the comments if I missed anything! :)
Before the video, I went North to collect 3 Gears (12 Gearbits) for the Chain-Dash upgrade (top one), one Key, and the Railgun, which is needed to hit one switch.

thx!
Pedro Provanosk love you papi
OMG, o en español, ALVVVVVVVVVV xd
39:07 lol, watched the entire video up to this point and I was like "Here it comes! Finally, I'll know the answer!"
"So uh... I don't actually know how to open this door..."
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+mobman47 same here bro :(
I tried, oh did I try :(
Note I can glitch underneath it, but I still can't open it.
it's the nature of an explorer to want to open every door.
idk, I thought it was funny.
I think the door being locked is an aesthetic decision. It kinda adds to the secrecy of the treasure behind it.
Funny, the video wan't loading so I checked the comments and this door is the reason I opened the video :P
"I don't recommend starting in this area"
ah god dammit that's why the boss is such a pain
What bugs me the most about it is that the combat in the rest of the zone is arguably the easiest in the game, then the boss is the hardest in the game. I mean at least make it consistent one way or another. oy vey
I found the north to have a harder boss fight
Boss was a pain even as my third area, lol
Thanks so much for this series man! I’ve been playing each area blind to see what I can find on my own then going back through with these videos to make sure I’ve gotten everything so my little completionist heart can chill.
Just curious why he doesn't use the shotgun or attack dash? I know he wants people to do it in any order, but if you're already using a guide might as well use what you'd have in this order, being the third area
I know this is an old video for you but you've got a good attitude towards your commentary on these walkthroughs; straight to the point and easy to follow. Thanks for the help!
Thanks for the comment :) Glad the videos helped!
I just wanted to say thank you for all your help, there’s literally no way I would have found all of the secrets in these areas without you
Gotta say, I really enjoyed watching you play this! I just re-downloaded this game and started to play through it again to get more secrets I missed the first time. This was helpful for everything I couldn’t figure out and pretty hilarious commentary wise.
39:11 I FOUND OUT. in the next room north of this one, there's a small pillar you can shoot with the railgun. Walk over to the other side and in the middle of the wall is a room you can enter and explore. As you go down you get a key and open the door from the inside. YOURE WELCOME!!!
yay i was noticed •U•
@@Hirobot I can confirm, the entrance to the locked room is in the wall the pillar is against. when you're done with the room to the north, just walk against the west wall and you'll find it. it contains a health kit and a key. Although I was not able to open the door even then, but i doesn't really matter cuz I got all the stuff anyways. hope this helps ;)
You are jesus
The door doesn't open for me no matter what i do.
Haha he goes into that secret area, oddly enough right after that, and does go down to get the key. But there isn't a switch for the door, i don't remember finding it 5 years ago either
I didn't plan on 100%ing this game at first, I watched your east vid first (also my first area!), but now I am! Going through each area once myself then following your videos has been REALLY helpful. Thanks for putting these together. Really glad I stuck with this game.
There is nothing good as a hardcore gamer plays and explains a walkthrough
I just recently got the game for Switch and I'm loving it. There are some extras for this version you'd have loved to play. I'm first completing every area on my own and then watch your guide to see how many things I missed. So far it seems we are working together as a team and that feels great. Thank you for your time and effort! Happy drifting n_n
Love these chill playthroughs. Really helps in order to find those really hidden gear bits.
I actually went West first and died like 20 times in the boss until I got the timing, there I was with no upgrades, no weapons, just me and my sword, and the gun that i didnt find usefull at first (since I would stand and aim with LT instead of just shoot with RT pointing towards the stuff) These are pretty good guides (already watched east and north, and u just uploaded this one as I was watching those lol), ive cleared myself the 3 bosses already and picked most of the stuff, then I found this guide and helped me a lot to find some of the most hidden stuff, the game somtimes is unfair with the way it hides things, it feels like you should go wall huggin the whole time to find everything lol. Great job and I cant wait for the South one! but first let me go by myself and try to clear it as best as I can :P.
+Tuku Giano thanks! At least starting with West probably made the other areas seem easier. Good luck with South and happy wall hugging ;)
@@TterraJ42 I also started with West and yeah, East and North seemed A LOT easier!^^ Gave up on the boss in the West first, and when I came back after completing East and North it still took me some trys...definitely the hardest area/boss of the three.
@@TterraJ42 Oh man, I cannot believe it lmao, I'm replaying this game 5 years later on my streams, and been struggling finding some of the secret stuff (again), and here are your guides helping me once again, I didnt even remember commenting here all these years ago lmao, hope you are having a good life!
Hey man! I just wanted to thank you I know it’s quite a few years later but I just got this game on my iPhone cause I have Bluetooth controller. Was looking up controller compatible games and came across HLD and just bought it. Your videos have helped me clear this game on the normal game, the alt character game mode and now I’m trying to clear new game + thanks to you I know all the areas and secrets. I appreciate all the work you did here. Great job bro
1:07:00 For anyone having trouble with this boss,hes how to make him easier. After his 2 slash combo,dash up to him and shotgun him once then back off. When he shoots his gun at you,use the dash-absorb upgrade to refill your shots. Kite and slash his minions to refill your shots as well,but if they are becoming too much of a hassle,shotgun their asses too,they only take 1 shot. Good luck boys!
He insta-kills me in 3 hits as soon as the fight starts, I can't dash out of his ridiculous range. What gives?
@@theGarbs I'm not sure how I could have evaded his auto-seeking slash combo without the multi-dash upgrade.
Thank you SO MUCH!
5 years later, I am doing a playthrough on my channel, and I just could
not for the life of me find the eighth power module!
Also I took about 30-40 minutes off screen to get through that damn crystal deathtrap, and I
STILL can´t dash consistently...
"West is usually the most challenging, if not confusing section of the game."
Me...slapping my forehead. I WISH I had KNOWN THAT going in XD
Then again; that means I tackled the most challenging and confusing area of the game first. Actually not that bad considering it took me under 10 tries to learn the Corrupt King's patterns, lol.
Man I'm thankful for the videos and hope life is well people still use your vids 6 years and counting
50:51 a fellow drifter who happens to be suffering from the same ailment the drifter we control. You'll find them coughing up blood as well.
I appreciate that u took the time to point everything in the description, good stuff dude.
you are an absolute legend, was missing 4 out of 16 keys and you helped me find them
I just started this game yesterday and thought I was suppose to go this way first and then I got to the boss and felt stupid and wandered why its so hard but this shed light on this area and showed me I missed 99% of the area.I originally found this video for help finding power nodes but you helped me see and find alot more than that thank you
I watched some bits of the north tutorial and leaned a lot I think just knowing that invisible path exist and how to tell when walls are passable helps immensely it's good that you explain how to tell how you found them
Very well planned out video. Must've taken a while to decide on the order of things. You also have timestamps, which you didn't need to do, but you did. Awesome =)
Thanks :D
One of the best guides I've seen. Helped me get the "Shine Bright" & "Hoarder" achievements, thank you so much dude!
Thanks :) Glad it was helpful!
done the area alone but could not find the last power module, so watch this and retook my steps start to finish, missed a few gearbits too. good work man you're a hero.
thanks :) glad the video helped!
Thanks for this video. I gave the western zone my best shot and still came up about 5 gear bits short. The detail and narration in the video were very helpful. Thanks again!
It's really hard to track down all the Gearbits, especially since you don't have any real idea how many there are, unlike keys or modules. Glad the video was helpful! And thanks for the comment :)
Thank you for this guide! At Crystal Spike Death Trap you can avoid the crystals by hitting the wall next to it, the knock animation nullifies its effect, then you can catch your breath and do it again.
Nice job dude couldn't pick anything you missed in the west area again, I did the west area first so it's my most heavily explored area. You done good
+Elliot Gray glad to hear :) the Gearbit count was lower so I wasn't sure. I guess there's slight variance between the zones. Which makes sense.
Just FYI: Your sequence breaker at ~36:15 "Devs, please don't patch this" ... looks like it has been patched ;D
That crystal shard in the corner that you flicker through is no longer there!
+Nathan Murray yeah :( mean devs. Oh well, we'll find a new way!
Great video :o) I'm only just now getting to play HLD because I got it for Christmas (I got it for switch!), and your videos have been very helpful so far :o)
I actually did the west side first XD
Didn't realize the boss was so much harder. I had to give up and go back to town and get multi dash, then I beat him.
VERY late to the party here, just found your videos and they're super helpful! love this game through and through. One or 2 things to note about the boss of this area: the gun you get now does 3 damage per shot, which, for me at least, makes it SUPER useful for combos, especially on 6 health enemies. And 2, you can bait him into slashing at the trapped in crystal samurai, so if you make him destroy all of them, he won't be able to summon any. I actually started WITH the west area and yeah the boss was definitely challenging but the reward is GREAT! kinda disappointing because I found literally every other boss to be super easy..
Not late, but just in time to enjoy a good game with all the patches from the start :)
Yeah, 3 damage is a good upgrade for the gun.
At the Crystal Spike Death Trap, if you roll a Roly Poly into the spikes, they will trigger. Then you can walk over them for a few seconds without dashing. Makes getting the Blue Green outfit way easier.
+Brant Geeves ah, that's a clever trick. Thanks.
thanks for your guidance. really helpful for me. if you dash on the wall you can get invincible a moment. it helps you in crystal spike trap room.
20:17
THANK YOU! You have no idea how long I've been searching for that key.
Thanks for the video!!!!!!!!!!! i would have never completed the gearbits without your help, some of these are tricky.
When I come here to figure out how to open that one door underground and it’s the only one he doesn’t know how to open 🥲
This is fantastic! Though I have found all the secrets already, somehow I've forgotten about the exact location of a door that needs many keys to open in the West. Last time I found it, I did not have enough keys, and I don't want to bother looking for it again, lol. I particularly like the way you use pistol shots combined with slashes, for this fighting technique is entirely new to me and it works like a charm! Thank you for the awesome video.
Likely the 12 Key Door at 23:46 with the Yellow Equipment Set & Gearbit 44. But yeah, chaining sword slashes into pistol shots is quite satisfying :) making using of the various sword and dash upgrades can really change your fighting style too. It's simple, yet deep.
these videos are great, I played through all the areas on my own first to experience the game but then realized how much I had missed and followed all your vids :-) luckily I did the west boss third anyway but it was still super tough for me :-(
edit: speaking of combos I really enjoy the shotgun and combining it with shot slash dash is super satisfying :D
these guides are great personally I complete an area and then look at your guides to see if I missed anything
Thanks :) I think that's a pretty good way to go about it.
7 years after it was posted and ots still the best guide out there ur voice is soothing 😅
Holy shit. I got the game for Switch finally yesterday in the bf sale, got 4 energy modules in this area and thought cool, but there were two areas I saw and couldn’t get to.
The first was the door that you also didn’t know how to open and the second I missed watching. xD
But I realized that I basically missed everything else which is a lot.
Holy shit. Now wondering what I missed in my first (north) area..
Thanks, subbed! :D
When I first started, I went west. I was going to stop playing because I hit a dead end, and my brain went numb. This helped me get familiar with the game. Thanks
Yeah, the West can be a confusing place. Glad the video helped :)
Been waiting the whole morning for this .Started the western area yesterday .. Thanks dude you are great !
+El Greco good luck :) this area gave me a lot of trouble first time though. Granted, it still gives me a lot of trouble...
Something I ran into in the crystal dash cave of suck was... the walls, and the stun kept me from getting hit by the crystals. So if you suck at chain dashing, run into the wall occasionally and you get afew seconds to restart without taking damage.
I had 2 grenades and the shotgun, when I got to the enemies I threw a grenade up, dashed to it, threw one down, and then shotgunned the 2 I missed, 1 spider and one dirk
this is actually a good strat ^
If you feel so inclined, this could use an update. All of the secret areas now have a square-like icon to indicate hidden passageways and invisible paths. Purists would say it's a cheap way to give away all the secrets, but there are TONS of square-like icons in the game, and I like that there's a definitive way to determine where the secrets are
Blue/Green set apparently makes you heal faster after using a medkit. Animation takes the same amount of time, but the bars fill up faster than usual. I read that somewhere on the interwebs.
Interesting, certainly sounds plausible, I don't think any other set does that.
I'm starting to feel bad about the joke at 39:00 . So many people have kindly commented how to get around the door, clearly pausing the video to explain it first. Thank you generous viewers, I hope we can laugh about this door together in a future video.
To get through the door in 37:10 you must go to the room up, shoot this switch with a gun and then on the floor is the square showing, that there's a secret passage in the wall. If you get through there you are behind that door and you can find a key
Ahh, right. But how do you *open* the door? :thinking:
@@TterraJ42 maybe there's no actual way to open these door and the creators of this game wanted to confuse us 😂
Loved this guide. I'm about to go to the southern area and was just trying to find those few bits and pieces that i'd missed and this was super handy
did you know, finding secrets are easier now since there is a marker .. a boxy spiral, i know you're finished with this game and uploading vids but ... if you see this, thanks man .. watching all these guides have been a journey
Yep! I think it's a good idea, though they places they use them seem sorta random. Glad the videos were helpful, and thanks for the comment :)
Thanks for making these videos! You’re super nice to listen to while replaying the game and also trying to find all hidden stuff :)
Thank you so much for this guide, still using it to find my way in 2024!
Here's a tip for the Western boss. You'll need the projectile deflection upgrade and multidash is optional. This boss has about 3 different attacks: the sword smash, the crystals, and the gun. For the sword attack, just focus on dodging. However, if you can get the boss to smash the frozen enemies in each corner, then they will not be able to spawn later in the fight. For the crystals, get some distance between you and the boss. He won't move during this attack or the next. Try to position yourself directly above, below, left, or right of the boss. The reason I say this is because that position makes it easier to deflect the next attack and hit the boss with deflected bullets. Repeat when the cycle starts again. This is a pretty time-consuming method, but you can actually do this fight without taking any damage this way.
Hey dude, nice work, the guide was really helpful (and the extremely convenient timestamps), and I really enjoyed the commentary, it was little enough for a guide, but much enough to keep the video interesting. Thanks :D
Glad the videos helped, and also glad you liked the commentary :) Thanks!
I managed to cheese the minigame that you talk about in the end. I used the charged slash to through the ball instantly into the goal. Makes it quite easy...
I have been following your guide and it's really helpful. Thanks a lot for the videos!
I'd like to think this series was part of the reason they added the markings on the floor for secrets
Thanks for the video!! Ultra helpful o/
Hey I found a sort of easy way to get the Green Blue Equipment Set at 1:26:56. The bottom edges of the hallways (the southern edges that aren't visible) have a narrow path you can walk on without taking damage from the crystal spikes. Instead of luring the huge pack of dirks into the spike pit I walked back and forth a few times, tossed grenades, and shot at them until I could dive in and slice them up easily. You still have to chain dash a bunch to get that far, but it saves you a little bit of effort I think. (editor's note: i suck at chain dashing)
Wow, must've been some oversight when doing the collision in that room. Thanks for the tip! Also, I too suck at chain dashing...
dude. your videos are awesome. I am making a habit of trying my best in each area then refer to these vids after. thanks man
+Jeremy Wood Thanks! I think that's a good way to go about it :)
If you play the video at 2x speed you kind of sound like Michael Cera. So it just feels like he's narrating this game for me and its a strange experience. Now, moving past that, thanks for these videos! They're really helping with the sneakier hidden paths.
heh, glad the videos helped :)
missed some secrets in some vids but easy figure them out later thanks to your vids and the calmness in your voice makes me play better and don't die so fast! :D Keep it up :)
Thanks :) I try to note in the description or video annotations when/where I miss things, but yeah, a lot of secrets in this game.
The "Zaliska" gun you get from the western area boss has been buffed to do 3 damage, with 4 ammo, that's 12 damage which is double the amount of a regular pistol :p and a larger hit radius
The damage buff is pretty cool. It was a bit of a special moment when that was decided. The devs were actually talking in the speedrunner's discord about various changes, and when we said we'd pretty much never use that gun, he asked "What if we buff the damage to 3?" Guess that wasn't a tease. Though I'm not convinced the radius is much bigger, mostly just the sprite.
that's awesome!
1:23:07 if you crash into the walls, you don't get hit with damage (on the Switch).
Same on PC
I started my first run in the west, the wolves are the most annoying enemy I've encountered so far
Abou the locked door underground, at 38:00
Shoot the things in purple with Laser Rifle (not the first, the laser is unlocked by beating the North boss)
THEN it will open a bridge way, wich (in the other side) contain a secret way (On the left wall, you can see some brocken brick on the floor that indicate where is the entrance)
There isn't a crystal to get to that dash glitch to avoid the boss area in my ps4 game. Meph. Always thanks again for this!
Yeah, the developer patched it out because he wanted speedrunners to stop skipping the boss :( But hey, we found others ways ;)
@27:34 seeing as this is a prison area, more than likely turning off the floor is in case of an escape. There's nowhere for the prisoners to go.
The facility doesn't have a pit in front of those cells in case the prisoners escape; rather, the pit prevents them from escaping in the first place should the barriers malfunction or their power fail.
TY FOR THIS SERIES
Super helpful, I had somehow missed the power module #4 thanks this was a big help
Yeah, it's pretty easy to miss a lot of these. Glad you got it now :)
Well done videos, thx tterraj42. I would enjoy watching these even without having played the game.
+TheMarahaxi thanks :) glad you are playing it though, it's such a satisfying game.
You missed a gearbit at 45 min... it's the area below the exit stairs.
Actually I've now seen the description.
Sorry, I'm now playing this game and I love it.
Didn't know I was missing so many gear bits lol. I also can't wait for the guide on the next area, as I'm missing a single monolith
+Xion Xion Holix if it's just a monolith you're looking for, here's a very nice video covering just those ruclips.net/video/FppLluzzkiU/видео.html I'm starting to route south tomorrow, so hope to have it up by Friday. And yeah, those Gearbits are everywhere!
+Tterraj42 what order would you recommend to do the zones in to collect everything. I ask since some zones have certain key doors, and collectibles behind those doors : [
+Rioma it's hard to not have to backtrack, so I'd just do them in whatever order you like. I start with East cause it's my favorite, then just come back for the 8 Key door. But I'd say, North then East then West would be the least backtracking, since you'll have the Railgun early.
Hey buddy, love your videos! I feel like I really went on a journey with you through this game.
Question, though. I notice at the end of your description you list 44 gearbits, but I only see timestamps up to 42. I'm 2 gearbits short and wondering if those unmarked two are my boys. Any chance of you pointing them out to me?
+Ross look backwards. There were 2 Gearbits I didn't pick up in the video. One was behind the 12 key door, and the other I missed (we get it in the next video). Good luck :) tracking down missing Gearbits can be tough.
man you helped me so much you cant imagine, ty for all your drifters videos 😁
Fantastic. Seriously well done videos my man, subbed.
I seriously appreciate the comment :)
The power module slightly above the warp in the west. What number power module is that corresponding to your video description?
46:00 Power Module 6
Do you know which monoliths on the "monolith wall" belongs to what area? I am missing the 5th from the top row, and it would save me time if i didn't have to watch your videos, and go trough all areas in the hopes of finding the one i missed. Thanks for the video btw!
+GHA! That would be in the South. Here's a lovely video just for monoliths ruclips.net/video/FppLluzzkiU/видео.html
+Tterraj42 Thanks!
I did not get the railgun in the north! I followed your north video and got the shotgun where you got the railgun. The wiki says it's in the south, beyond an 8 module door. Maybe it got patched that way? Anyways, love your videos! Huge help on my second playthrough. Newgame alt is awesome.
That's very interesting. The shotgun is usually from the East. What I called a "railgun" may be the "rifle". There is a gun in the South you get much later that's probably the real "railgun". So try East next, see if you get the rifle.
47:20 if you use your robot where the red patch is on the floor it shows you an invisible way to a "gearbit".
39:07 there is a block you shoot north east of the door that makes a bridge appear its right behind one of the guards shooting at you you can walk through the wall next to the switch and it leads to the backside of the locked door.
Thanks for the videos, you're a cool dude :)
thanks :) you're cool too!
Thank You so much for uploading this! The game is Great and so are you!
Thanks! Glad the video was helpful :)
the west made me want to scratch my eyes out. thank you for the walkthrough
It's a pretty rough zone, for sure. I'm glad the video helped, for your eye's sake :)
47:19 there is a invisible plataform on the left of the bridged, just in the scratched square that leads to a coin.
hey, around 44:50 when you activate the switch, on my game the camera moves down and shows a room with a gearbit and some enemies. do you know how to get there?
edit: just got it. after the bridge you make to get there, there is a secret interaction you can press and it generates an invisible bridge for you to get on. hope that helps someone
Wow your really good at the game!! i need to step up...on my first play through ATM... i have a question is it just me or does that rail-gun take longer to shoot because i cant do consecutive gun slash combos before the enemies hit me?? Also i feel real cheesy cause i just charge slash everything nowadays i feel like its making my reaction time slower
Yes, the railgun has a slower rate of fire.
He's only able to animation-cancel his sword slashes because the pistol has the highest rate of fire in the game.
at 22:14 you can actually dash onto that small ledge sticking out and then dash onto the bigger area to the left
Heads up, the room with like 50 Dirks is like 100x easier if you have grenades. They're worth the points for their room-clearing capabilities.
for sure, I really underused grenades starting out.
Love these videos - I'd be lost without them - thanks !
Thanks :) I'm glad the videos are helpful!
So many cliff's and platform. Its like this entire place is in the sky.
Maybe it is! :O
A floating continent or island, a la Cave Story? That could be pretty cool.
At 27 min when you joke about why they'd have a floor as a toggle switch, it's clearly a row of prison cells there with skeletons haha, it removes the floor in front of their cells, so definitely a solid idea to have that there
Dude! These videos were super helpful! Thank you so much some stuff is easy to find but other stuff is incredibly difficult to find! Appreciate all your doing man keep it up! You got a like and sub from it! :)
Such a great honour to watch such an amazing video
Thanks :3 love your name & avatar.
played this whole game through with you bro, it was fun.
+xSydVicious it was a fun journey :)
Bros' video title is All Secrets but he did a walk through for us
Tterraj - you're the man! I've been playing the game along with your videos and thoroughly enjoying my "guided tour" of HLD. Would you (or anyone playing through) mind linking or giving the timestamp of the part where you actually pass that 12-key door? I've been trying to get back there but I somehow keep missing it when I'm panning around the video. Keep being awesome!
+Dukeman330 thanks :) glad you're enjoying the tour!
There's a timestamp for the door in the description, it's 23:45 I think the golden outfit is supposed to make you move slightly quicker, which is kinda nice.
