How to Acquire
Geo can be gained in several different ways:


 * Defeating enemies
 * Destroying Geo deposits
 * Opening chests
 * Selling relics to Relic Seeker Lemm
 * Rescuing Grubs for the Grubfather
 * Completing a Trial at the Colosseum of Fools

While the Gathering Swarm Charm is equipped, a small swarm will gather any dropped Geo for the player, except those fallen in water or acid. Fragile Greed (as well as it's unbreakable variant) increases the amount of Geo enemies drop.

Keeping Relics to sell to Lemm when Geo is needed is particularly useful because unlike Geo, these items are not lost upon death.

In Steel Soul mode, Rancid Eggs can be sold to Steel Soul Jinn for Geo.

A great early source of Geo are the Husk Guards in Forgotten Crossroads. Many enemies in the City of Tears, especially Great Husk Sentries, as well as Hoppers and Great Hoppers in Kingdom's Edge are also great sources of Geo.

One-time Major Sources

 * Gorgeous Husk in the City of Tears drops upon death ( with Fragile Greed equipped)
 * In Kingdom's Edge, there is a hidden passage accessible by breaking a wall in a room with a Great Hopper and a lot of spike pits. At the very bottom of it is largest Geo deposit in the game, rewarding . This value is not increased by Fragile Greed.
 * Millibelle the Thief will return when in the Pleasure House. See here for more details on this process.
