Walkthrough “Spearhead”
Time to take a stroll down memory lane. Once you regain control of Ela, approach the nearby orb to examine it. A red spark flew up to the top of a nearby spire. As usual, start by scanning your surroundings with Focus, and you should highlight some climbable ropes by the scaffolding to the right of the sphere we explored. Climb up the rope, then without touching the left or right handle to jump back onto the ledge.
Then climb onto the next yellow object, jump back, then jump to the side.
At the top, you will need to use your tractor to pull the wooden beam towards you and then climb onto it. At the end of the wooden beam, look to the right to open the electrical panel with the tractor. Climb the Spire, on the 2nd climb you should climb up and to the side. Hold the left stick to jump towards distant objects.
It's time to return to Marad and Varl to tell them about your recent findings. It's time to upgrade Aloy's recently gifted weapon, the Champion's Spear. Approach the main waypoint to interact with the workbench and start the modification. If you wish, you can talk to various NPCs here, but this is not required.
Now go rejoin Marad and Varl. They stand next to the statue of Aloy. If you are ready, select "Time to go".
