Back to Dark Souls 3 guide and walkthrough. In the world of Dark Souls, going hollow means losing the vestige of humanity as you succumb to the undead curse.
Most humanoid enemies the player meets are hollows - barely more than aggressive, animated corpses. In previous Dark Souls games, players went hollow when they died, resulting in lower health and the inability to summon co-op assistance, and they'd have to use a Humanity item in order to return to their normal form.
This isn't the case in Dark Souls 3; players lose their Lord of Cinder form upon death, and must use an Ember to reclaim their fire, but do not go hollow.
Nevertheless you can go hollow, and it does have consequences. On this page we'll explain how hollowing works in Dark Souls 3. Players will not go hollow until they are branded with the Dark Sigil. The Dark Sigil is a key item acquired from Yoel of Londor when the player accepts his offer to draw out their true power. See our NPC guide for information on how to recruit Yoel. Once the player has a Dark Sigil, each death will add to their hollow level at a rate of one per Dark Sigil held.
If you have one Dark Sigil, each death adds one to your hollow tally, and if you have two, it adds two levels - and so on. Yoel offers up to five Dark Sigils, giving a free level up each time.
Each of Yoel's five Dark Sigils is available only after reaching a certain level of hollowness. You'll need 16 hollowing to access all five free levels, and must achieve this before advancing the game too far as Yoel will die after a few bosses are defeated.
A further three Dark Sigils are available if players follow Yuria and Anri of Astora's quest lines; see the NPC guide and endings guide for more information and spoilers.
The most noticeable effect of hollowing is that the player takes on a corpse-like appearance. Join VIP to remove all ads and videos. Hollow or Hollowing in Dark Souls and Dark Souls Remastered refers to a degenerative state that eventually leads to complete madness.
Enemies in this state are known as Hollows. Players do not go completely hollow, but can revert to sanity by using Humanity at a bonfire, or defeating a boss either in their world or as an NPC phantom. Please see Humanity Farming for more details. The idea of hollowing very likely comes from T. Eliot's poem 'Hollow men'. From Wikipedia: "The Hollow Men follows the otherworldly journey of the spiritually dead. These "hollow men" have the realization, humility, and acknowledgement of their guilt and their status as broken, lost souls The same thing happens to you when you die.
You can be full of Souls and still be Hollow zombie. To become human, you need Humanity. Humanity is simultaneously a concept humanity , as in the state of being a human, as opposed to a zombie raisin and a consumable item Humanity , the item you carry or earn. You regain it if you reach and interact with your bloodstain — again, just like Souls.
That number in the upper left of your HUD could be 11, but you may still be a zombie. The downside of restoring your humanity is that it makes you vulnerable to invasion. Other players can appear in your game uninvited and kill you. Humanity is a consumable item in Dark Souls Remastered , so its availability is limited.
