Sword Art Online Hollow Fragment Tips & Tricks
Hollow Area First
Well, not entirely. It’s true that the Hollow Area is a fantastic place to fight and gain levels and some phat lewt. No problems there. Actually, it’s probably best to advance both areas somewhat simultaneously with the Hollow Area getting the edge. But the enemies there are really close to Kirito’s starting level; most of them are over it. And exploring all willy nilly is almost definitely going to get the player killed when they stumble into a next of baddies 20 levels higher.
So play around in Aincrad for a bit. Get used to the controls and the combat system and how Sword Skills work. Learn how to maximize your partner’s effectiveness and also experiment with the different characters. The starting floor 76 isn’t intimidating at all in comparison and you can also complete a few side quests to boot.
