Climbing up the Launch Tower
Afterreleasing the Shuttle Clamps, an elevator will drop in front of Aloy and players need to head forward to it andthen use their Pullcaster itemon apiece of debris on the right of itto drop it down even further.

As for the second cable connector,Horizon Forbidden Westplayers will need to reach a higher point on the launch tower.
Getting to the Second Cable Connector
As soon as players destroy the first connector, immediately turn around to see a short metal staircase and then jump across a gap to one of the handholds on the tall pillar. Jumping with X and then pressing X again willpull Aloy towards the pillar.

Jump across some metal structures and go up a short ladder toreach the second cable connectorto finally drop the shuttle on the snake-like robot enemies.
