Metal Arms: Glitch in the System/Seal the Mines
From SDA Knowledge Base
Any% Route
- Move straight to the exit in the first room
- Jump into the loader, turn left, and enter the next opening on your left
- Move up the ramp, go over the bridge with the loader as far as possible, and jump before it falls off
- Notice how the fans only hold up the loader if they are actually over the ground and not air. It's slightly faster to go across the bridge sideways, but it's also harder to do.
- Skip the Barter Droids and exit the room by jumping into a tunnel to your left
- Exit the tunnel
- As you jump down to the platform on the right, drop a coring charge on the generator below
- Once you see the "Checkpoint" indicator come up, you can safely jump through the opening into the grinder
- Go straight across the next room and get the Det Packs in the supply crate
- Note that it may be easier to come at the supply crate from a slightly different angle, so that it's easier to drop down inside
- Enter the lift
- The lift entrance and exit are on the same side
- The first Det Pack goes on the far side of the machine from where you enter
- From there, work your way clockwise around the processing machine
Version Differences
Grinder Room
