Stuck

[Merder]

I went to a new island and was going around collecting lots of stuff and my inventory was full. But a little hole in the ground caught my eye and I thought, "Might as well see what's in there." So I lower myself down with my grapple tethered to a rock above ground. It's a deep well with those circuit board looking walls that you can't grapple or climb. It leads down to a steep downward sloping ramp, also made of the non-climbable walls. The bottom of the ramp drops off into a long pit filled with metal spikes. About midway across the pit there is a beam that is both grapple-able and climbable. It looks like the intent is for the player to grapple the beam, swing across the pit and land on the other side. However, the pit is too long for me to swing across. I lose too much momentum and cannot reach the ledge on the other side.

Has anyone else found this particular area and been able to successfully cross it? Once you've committed to trying to swing across, there is no going back because the ramp leading down into the area is too steep. I think i'll probably have to lose my whole inventory because I don't know how to get out without respawning.

Here's a screenshot of me standing on the beam and the side that I'm trying to get to.

Reel in on your grappling hook while on the downswing to get extra speed, press space (or jump equivalent) while you still have momentum on the up swing. If that alone doesn't cross the gap, you can use the makeshift glider to make up the distance.

Should look like this:

Thanks for the video! I tried for over an hour and I could not nail the move. I think one difference between my attempt and your video is that I did not have the advantage of momentum from the slide down the ramp towards the pit. I could be wrong but I feel like if you don't nail this on the first attempt, it's impossible. However, I had to retrieve my loot since it contained the blueprints for the cannon that I needed to progress.

In the process of all this, I discovered an exploit. You can actually glitch yourself through walls by grappling into a crevice too small to fit into and then pressing F a few times. As much as I dislike it, I had to use it to get myself out of this predicament. I glitched outside of the non-climbable walls got to where I thought was past the obstacle, then glitched myself back in.

My suggestion to the devs would be to create some alternate path around these extremely difficult obstacles but design them in a way that the player misses some good (but not critical for progress) loot if they take the easy way. I also think there should be a way to backtrack if the obstacle proves too difficult. In this particular one, once you've lowered yourself into the hole and detached, there is no way to go back.

I had the same issue as you did, and even when I reattempted it knowing to get the momentum I failed again. They should make it easy to get back out the pit to the top to try again vs forcing you to glitch it or to kill yourself

If the makeshift glider isn't enough to get the extra distance you need, you can try again later after crafting the wing glider.

I have no grappling hook

Took a bit of trial and error but you don't really need the speed boost from the ramp to get over, just have to swing and reel boost up until you get high enough. Bit of a moot point now though

Two of my team mates did this without the ramp speed, I could not and died. My team mates were nice enough to gather my loot.

Remember you can hit escape and respawn at your ship at any time, you just lose anything in your bag, so re arrange your good loot to your belt.

If you don’t have the momentum, it’s easier to do this particular puzzle backwards, I’ve found.

If you really need the data tower at the end of this puzzle (or your inventory), build a makeshift storage on the roof whilst your swinging, this gives you a better grapple position to get over the long gap, i suggest using this technique for any parkour puzzle your having dificulty with, atleast until bossa updates the parkour puzzles to be doable by casual players.
