Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Derelict Dam elevator: How to reach the top

Before we dig into the solution, note you won’t be able to reach the top of the Derelict Dam elevator until you have theupgraded ascension cable, which you get as you chase Rayvis through theShattered Moon.

The path to the top of the Derelict Dam elevator calls back to a minor story point you previously encountered in the game. Recall that to reach the Forest Array, you had to complete several puzzles that involved moving a bubbly, purple substance out of your way via a series of lasers. You may also recall seeing a massive, birdlike creature causing a ruckus because it found itself stuck in the substance. Through your mastery of the laser techniques, you managed to free the bird. Well, now that bird wants to repay your kindness. It will bring you to the area you need to go so you can unlock the Derelict Dam elevator shortcut.

Instead, head to your right. You’ll see some of thefloating grapple balloonsyou saw in Shattered Moon. You’ll also see one that you can lift with yourLiftability. Place the balloon in the air so that it allows you to leapfrog to the one that’s further away, and then follow the balloons up and around to the left until you reach a platform.
