Burning Cascade: reach the platform above the obelisk

Burning Cascade is on a high rock/platform above the documented Zone 1 obelisk layout. You need the grapple: look upward for the grapple approach, reach the upper platform and collect the schematic. If you do not have that ability yet, return on a later run.

Follow these steps

  1. Listen at the obelisk, then look above it

    At Zone 1 obelisks, listen for the schematic cue and look upward for the high rock/platform and grapple point. Obelisk map positions vary; searching only around the base follows the wrong part of this route.

    Look above the obelisk, not around its base.
  2. Use the grapple to reach the upper pickup

    Grapple up to the high platform and take Burning Cascade. This route requires having the grapple available; it does not establish a current unlock sequence for that ability.

Completion signal

Collect the schematic on the upper platform above the obelisk. Hearing its cue from ground level is only confirmation that you are nearby.

What the module does

Destruction can release burning bombs.

If it does not work

If you lack the grapple, keep this entry on your missing list and return once the ability is available. If you have it but cannot locate the pickup, look above the obelisk for the pictured upper platform rather than searching its base.
