Missing Crowbar in chapter 5

[aaronneo310]

Was trying to complete the “Melt the Ice” mission in chapter 5 and got to the part where I encountered the 3 hopping crabs. Managed to kill the crabs and pull the crowbar out from the rocks. However, I died shortly after as I ran out of oxygen.

On the next play through, I can no longer find the crowbar. Anyone encountered the same issue and knows where the crowbar might have gone to?

PS: I’ve searched in the toolbox on the boat but can’t find the crowbar there as well. Doesn’t seem like there’s any way for me to equip the crowbar before going for a dive.

Have you tried going as far as you needed the crowbar to melt the ice?

Hi, yes. In the next five after diving, I went to the location with the mirror. When I went to the back of the mirror where I was supposed to use the crowbar to move it, I couldn’t do anything.

did you try talking to cobra?
he has to explain to you how to use a crowbar before you can use it.

Yes I believe so but I’ll probably give that another try later today

I am now having the same issue. Were you able to figure out how to fix it? Unfortunately for me, all my auto saves don't help me with this issue and I'm getting frustrated.
I did go back and talk to Cobra but he doesn't mention the crowbar now

I though I was missing the crawbar, turns out it was just in the rock all the time (after you find it), so you I just returned to the mirror, right click on the rock and it pulled on the crawbar that was already there.

I've just encountered something similar so for anyone else confused about a missing crowbar: after Dave says that he needs a crowbar to enter the chamber, simply swim up to the chamber above, and then swim back down. This will trigger the event to push the story forward.
