During its tutorial section, The First Descendant gives players a grappling hook that significantly enhances verticality. Users can augment the mechanic with a few different mods, one being Multi-Maneuvering which reduces the hook\u2019s range but adds three charges. A second mod, Long-Distance Maneuvering, increases the range and lowers the standard cooldown by 20 percent. Finally, the Mid-Air Maneuvering module allows the hook to be cast once in mid-air at a 20 percent cooldown cost. The latter mod may represent the best option because of one neat traversal trick. A Reddit user revealed that Mid-Air Maneuvering is glitched in a way that lets them \u201cgrapple the sun\u201d and launch their Descendant to heights beyond what the developers initially intended. To perform this trick, users must hit the menu button, and then push the grapple button while the inventory menu loads in. The original poster additionally noted, \u201cthe glitched [grappling hook] will always grapple the same fixed point in the same direction. If you\u2019re in an enclosed area, the grapple will grab the nearest structure towards the fixed point. This works anywhere in the game.\u201d Apparently, the movement strategy is not only good for having fun with the traversal mechanics. In subsequent replies, the Redditor claimed it works wonders during some Colossus battles with \u201cdistant platforms\u201d that are otherwise impossible to reach. With this Mid-Air Maneuvering trick, players should be able to safely snipe at the hulking enemies from afar. The First Descendant players in the thread have already shouted OP\u2019s praises for the grapple hook discovery.
