STILLWATER / FIELD GUIDE
HUSH The Hollow Map: Floors, Landmarks and Navigation
Last updated:
Find your way through The Hollow in HUSH Zombie Extraction using Site Map, shared waypoints and the passages connecting its main landmarks. Choose your route from your spawn position and destination.
Press M to open Site Map, find your blue dot, and use Q/E or the floor tabs to change the displayed floor. Click a destination to place a squad-visible blue diamond. R13 is northwest of the central building, Archive Stacks is northeast of Army Staging Cavern, and Security HQ is in the southeast. For Rook's Raft, head toward Underground River southeast of Site Security.
Read Site Map and Change Floors
- Press M during a Hollow raid to open Site Map.
- Find your blue dot. Other colored dots identify your teammates; the blue diamond marks your selected destination.
- Use Q/E or click the floor tabs to change the displayed floor. Compare your position with the rooms and connecting passages around your objective.
- Click a map location to set or move your waypoint. Your squad can see it. Click again to clear it, or use CLEAR beside Your waypoint.
- Click an exit to ping it for the squad. Read its requirements under MARKED EXITS before heading there.
Use the TASKS and LABELS display toggles to show or hide those map details. Reopen Site Map at junctions to check your blue dot against the passage you intend to take.
For surface navigation, use the separate Stillwater map guide.
Orient Around Sinkhole, R13 and the Central Building
The Sinkhole lies west of the central building. If you start on the northwestern side, use the area northwest of the Sinkhole as your first reference, then follow the Sinkhole's eastern connection toward R13.
R13 is on the northwest side of the central building, south of the Vent Raise Ladder exit marker. Use the exit marker to locate this part of the building, then compare your blue dot with the nearby passage before choosing your next turn.
The indoor Site Security room near R13 and Vent Raise Ladder is distinct from the Site Security map label in southeastern Hollow. For the Security Card search near R13, head to the room beside the Vent Raise Ladder extraction room. Use the Security Card room and locker directions to identify the correct furniture; finding a card there is not guaranteed.
From Army Staging Cavern to Archive Stacks
For a southwestern spawn, use this route to reach the archive area and its northern connection:
- Head to Army Staging Cavern. It sits southwest of Archive Stacks.
- Continue northeast to Archive Stacks. Set your waypoint there to keep the next destination clear.
- Head north toward the connection near N44 if your objective takes you farther north.
For a destination in the southern laboratory area, take the eastern passage from Archive Stacks toward the laboratory beside G3 instead. Choose the branch that serves your objective rather than visiting every landmark in sequence.
Find Security HQ, MX Research and the River
Security HQ and MX Research
Security HQ is in southeastern Hollow. Its northern passage connects to MX Research, where turnstiles and a reception desk provide recognizable interior landmarks. When approaching from MX Research, use that connecting passage to reach the north side of HQ.
A Staff Card opens Security HQ. The Chief is a boss inside HQ, so reaching the entrance and preparing for the fight are separate decisions. Use the Hollow keycard guide for card acquisition and door interactions, and the Chief and Mayor preparation guide if combat is your objective.
Underground River and Rook's Raft
From the southeastern Site Security map label, head southeast toward Underground River. Rook's Raft is near the river. Ping the exit, then follow its indicator through The Caves to the raft dock.
Prepare 2,500 Cash in your stash for the raft payment. For the dock interaction and the requirements of alternative exits, use the Hollow extraction guide.
