If you are exploring the universe in Star Wars Outlaws and find yourself stuck behind seemingly indestructible rock walls, you are not alone. These solid barriers can be quite perplexing, but there’s a way to overcome them. Here’s a detailed guide on obtaining the necessary upgrade to break through these obstacles and continue your journey.
Understanding the Blocked Entrances
While exploring Toshara and other planets, you might encounter cave entrances sealed by solid sheets of rock. Even high-power explosives like grenades or grenade launchers fail to make a dent in these obstructions. If you aim your blaster at these rock walls, you might notice a yellow explosion symbol on your aiming reticule. This is a clue that a special upgrade known as the Power Bolt is required.
How to Obtain the Power Bolt Upgrade
The Power Bolt is an upgrade for your blaster, integral to breaking through these stubborn barriers. To acquire this upgrade, progress through the storyline until you meet ND-5, a commando droid. After leaving Toshara for your first destination, you’ll need to complete the initial part of either the Droidsmith, the Safecracker, or the Heavy quests on Myrra, Kijimi, or Tatooine respectively.
Upon completion of the initial quest segment, ND-5 will contact you with information about an upgrade, initiating the Gunsmith quest. Return to the Trailblazer and speak with ND-5 to unlock the option to craft the Power Bolt at the blaster modification table.
Using the Power Bolt to Break Walls
With the Power Bolt upgrade installed, using it is straightforward. Hold the switch blaster modes button—typically used to change to your ion blaster module—and aim at the rock wall. Charge and fire the shot to break through the barrier. Remember, this will only work on walls displaying the yellow blast symbol when aimed at, which predominantly block cave entrances or doorways during planetary exploration.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can unlock new areas and continue your adventuring in Star Wars Outlaws with ease. The Power Bolt upgrade is an essential tool for any serious explorer, ensuring that no stone wall can hinder your progress. Happy exploring!
