Help with layer 3?

[StarvinMarvin29]

Does anyone know how the hell to get back to Orth from layer 3? The running boulder area in the cold heat layer was blocked off, and I can't find a way back anywhere. I completed all of the side and main quests and went into layer 4 and back and can't fast travel, I've been stuck here for 6 hours. Somebody PLEASE enlighten me

1. Freezing Hot Mines: climb up to Glass Layer

2. Glass Layer: go to Crimson Splitjaw's room; climb up and destroy the big ice block; go to Quadruple Pit

3. Quadruple Pit: follow the dark cave, go up and reach the top exit of that cave; at the right side of the exit is the entrance to Hexagon Pillars, enter.

4. Hexagon Pillars: go to Great Fault

5. Great Fault: Climb the cliff, the entrance to the 2nd layer is at your left side at the same height.

If you are confident about your climbing skill, you can go this route:

Freezing Hot Mines --> Rock Side Hall --> Quadruple Pit (lower part) --> Hexagon Pillars --> Great Fault

This one requires a lot of dangerous climbing but is much shorter.

Awesome, thank you so much. I was about to start pulling my hair out because I was running out of food lol

There's a good chance you might have to select abort in your menu, which will make the game load the last time you were in Orth, before taking the expedition. I made the mistake of going down to three without the climb stamina upgrade and you easily can get stuck.

On a side note, do you happen to know how to fast travel in layer 3? I made it back to Orth, but after returning I still can't fast travel in layer 3 and I really don't want to have to come all the way back again ;-;

you need to be a black whistle to fast travel from layer 3 or 4 :/

Aww that sucks

After disabling the endless spawning, I find the 3rd layer's trip is quite enjoyable. Those caves and underground ponds are the best looking environments in my opinion.
