How to Get Into Hernand Castle in Crimson Desert Without Breaking the Bank

Need to bypass the guards at Hernand Castle in Crimson Desert? A handy guide reveals how to get past the dress code without spending your hard earned in-game currency.

Pearl Abyss has given open world fans plenty to chew on with Crimson Desert, and players pushing through the opening hours are already bumping into strict local dress codes. When you first reach the imposing gates of Hernand Castle, the guards will turn you away if your gear is not up to standard. The situation repeats later during the Mystical Key quest in Chapter One, meaning you will eventually need to sort out your wardrobe to progress the main storyline.

While the local tailor is more than happy to sell you the pricey Hernandian Banquet Cloak, you can skip the steep in-game currency sink entirely. You likely already possess the exact item you need in your inventory. By checking your gear for the Hernandian Attire, which is rewarded earlier during the Actions Speak Louder than Words quest, you can bypass the shop altogether.

Simply equip the attire right in front of the castle guards, and they will immediately grant you access. For a full breakdown of alternative methods, including where to find other clothing options if you missed the quest reward, you can check out the original guide by Marloes Valentina Stella on Polygon.
