Clumsy fingers cannot reach Sunglasses and keep falling.
I am trying to get the sunglasses.

I have made about 5 successful jumps, and am 2 jumps from the top of the windmill. I need one jump onto the ledge on the vane of the windmill, and another jump to the top. However, I keep falling from the last 2 jumps to the top.

Is there anyone who can advise me on how to do the last 2 jumps? My fingers are just fat and clumsy and I have a poor sense of rhythm and timing, so I keep failing.

Also, are there any other sunglasses alternative beside the one at the windmill for the PC version. I saw a video of a pair on top of a car on a bridge for PS4, but do not know the exact location. Is there also another sunglasses inside Domed City? If so, I would appreciate more details about where it is and how to reach it. I am only level 7 so I probably won't survive any difficult fights.

Once again, many thanks.

In East Abessa, south of the separatists' converter, there is a bridge leading to an old factory. Toxic pollution covers parts of the main building and its surroundings. The building is inhabited by a berserker named Bor. On the bridge find four car wrecks, some items (antitoxin e.g.) and sunglasses.

Can my level 7 hero with Duras survive the monsters there?
Also, what is the name of the nearest teleporter to that location?
Is the nearest teleporter called "Dam", "Converter in South Abessa", "Convertere in North Abessa", "Companies in North Abessa" or "Converter Ignadon"?

Thanks a lot for your help, D'amarr.

There are no beasts directly on the bridge where to find the sunglasses on a car.
The teleporter is called "Converter in South Abessa" indeed.

Can't serve with a map marker screenshot, but here is the view towards the bridge, the converter and the hill with the barbed wire fence of the factory on the right side:

This should be the factory behind the bridge:

With just avoidance and exploration and no companion, you can reach the Ice Palace in Xacor at level 2. The energy shield - the backdoor glitch has been fixed as far as I know.

Thanks for the info, D'amarr.

I can see that you are a true EXPERT in this game with 50/50 achievements in only just 71 hours. I played 30 hours and have barely got anywhere in this game. Gotta restart twice even, and most of my time is just picking up stuffs. I am still in the "learning the game" stage.

Nah. In 2017, I've played ELEX mostly offline due to where and when I've played it. The Steam app doesn't record any playtime in offline mode, but syncs unlocked achievements when restarting the app in online mode. Those 71 hours are from my recent replay while waiting for Deadfire "Forgotten Sanctum".

You can also buy the glasses from the wandering merchant that travels from Tavar to the town of Origin.

There is a pair of sunglasses in a chest just south of the Dome and NW of the farm that show you enemies on the mini-map. I can't remember the name of them, but they are highly useful, especially @ early levels, I wore those sunglasses for most of the game. Can't remember if the chest requires lock picking or not.

I got there about level 10, but the way is dangerous, and I had to do some manuvering to avoid all the high level enemies & mobs.
