What's the ability that lets you get past 'black fog' doors?

I can't buy a map for Fog Canyon until I get it.

You can access that area after you get the ability to swim in acid. The ability to pass void gates is not required.

Damn, alright. THanks.

Without spoiling anything, the ability needed to pass the black gates can be found in the lower part of Hallownest, in the ancient basin, though a certain item is required to access the area where you get that ability. To start you off, I would suggest exploring the Kingdom's Edge

Thank you! That is the last ability i need to get the last dreamer. Spent a lot innecesary time because of it's "Discover by yourselves" ♥♥♥♥♥! Hugs bro!

You don't actually need the ability to get the dreamers, which dreamers do you already have?

It's nice to have as many abilities as you can get, but again, you don't need to pass the "dark fog" gates to finish the game with the first ending. (The second and 3rd endings do require you go pass those barriers though.)

Those doors are meant as barriers to areas of the map that aren't really relevant until later in the game, though two of them are just red herrings and the areas they seem to block can be accessed other ways (such as was somewhat spoilerishly mentioned above for one of those two areas).

As someone mentioned recently in another thread, you might want to use map pins to mark those spots on your map so you remember to go back to them later.
