Preparing for the Ancient Spire Climb
Essential Skills Needed
To climb the Ancient Spire-Albaneve, you will need to obtain the Double Jump – it is actually necessary to avoid traps and access elevated platforms. Double Jump is especially useful in avoiding floor traps, controlling your movement on the ice, or accessing higher grounds in the tower, or even in exploration.
Items to Carry
Health potions, Staff Charges, and Stamina Recharge Foods can be lifesavers during the climb. Additionally, improve your grappling hook so that less stamina would be used when grappling.
