Fast travel with Grappling hook (image is a WIP :v)

By Busts-A-Nut

This is a short guide in how to do a fast travel with the help of a hook or rope, since i havent seen anyone mention it here it is
PD:Since last updates this trick was nerfed and is harder to do in irregular terrain, but still is pretty helpful

Performing the trick

1-Find a rather plain and open space
2-Shoot your hook to a block in the ground, around 8 to 12 blocks away from you
3-Start running towards the grappling point while holding forward and up at ther same time (this may cause problems in keyboards that dont allow too many inputs at once)
4-When you get close to 5-6 blocks jump and when you are close to being right above the grapling point press jump (while holding the previously mentioned keys)

If you do it right you should go flying quite far, this technique requires practice and experimentation i hope you find it usefull

Oh boi, has been a while since i played, you need Durasteel to make it
You need to make the "hunting station" i think it was called (the one wich is a log with a bow aside), and then upgrade it

I learned how to do this a while ago and then applied it to the grappling hook in Titanfall 2; it works even better on that game.

This was one of the first things i discovered

Or a much easier way to do it is with the sonic sphere and the multi-jump

This is similar to what I used to do with air dash tech before they killed the momentum when the effect ends. You are basically slinging yourself sideways with the grapple hook, with jump to get ground clearance so the momentum isn't hampered.
