Turning right and heading down the path to the left, Cal will get attacked by aShiverpede. There are several of these enemies lurking throughout this cave, so players should use Force Pull regularly while exploring; doing so will allow Cal to grab any nearby enemies and suspend them in midair, making their attempts to surprise him fall flat.
Just behind where the Shiverpede was waiting,a Priorite Shardcan be found.
Backtracking to the door he just came through, Cal can proceed left and useForce Pushon the door further up. He must then proceed through the dark corridor, defeat another Shiverpede, anduse his Lightsaber to cut through the ropesblocking the way forward.
Running across the wall on the left and then turning right, twoBramlikswill attack. Once they have been defeated, Cal can useForce Pushon the debris to his left tocreate a bridge to the next area.
Crossing the bridge and turning left, Cal must cut through the ropes in his way and squeeze through the gap at the end of the path. After defeating the Bramlik in this area, Cal can continue to the back of the cave to find theDead Researcher Force Echo.
Heading back through the gap he squeezed through, Cal must slash through the set of ropes at the opposite side of the room to continue moving forward. Turning right and following the path, Cal will find a deadGorgerthat, when scanned, will reward him with theDead Gorgers Data Entry.
Backtracking to the ropes he just cut, Cal can then leap across to the platform ahead to find and kill aScavenger Droid. Turning left and heading into the darker area, he must then defeat two Bramliks before he can open the chest at the back. Once the chest has been opened, he will obtain theScrapyard Legsfor BD-1.
Backtracking to where the Scavenger Droid was first seen, Cal can jump forward to the stone walkway opposite the way he came from. Following the path through the gap in the wall, he can create a shortcut back to the entrance by interacting with the zipline.
Turning left and continuing down the corridor, BD-1 can scan the large skeleton to acquire theMassive Ribcage Data Entry.
To the left in the next area, theProspector Remains Force Echocan be seen in the corner; directly behind, players will find theSodden Grotto Meditation Point.
Before proceeding into the next area, players should be sure to interact with this Meditation Point torestock their Stimsand secure a checkpoint, as dropping into the area ahead will initiate a pretty challenging Rancor boss battle.
How To Beat The Rancor In Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
Movement is key during this battle as, although the Rancor isn’t overly fast,it can instantly KO Cal with its grab attack. Because of this, players should try their best to dodge away from the Rancor whenever it is about to attack to ensure they don’t get grabbed by it. Thankfully, the instant KO attack has a pretty obvious tell; whenever the Rancor is about to do it,it will glow red before reaching its claws toward Cal.
Another red attack the beast will perform sees it smashing its claws into the ground and sending a shockwave toward Cal. This attack can be dodged byjumping to the left or the rightthe moment the best begins to glow red.
It’s also possible toparry the Rancorwhen it lunges at Cal by blocking its claws. A perfectly timed block willstagger the beast, allowing Cal to get a few attacks in.
Another great way to deal some quick and easy damage to this Rancor is to useForce Pull on one of the boneslying around andthrow it toward the beast’s mouth. This will briefly incapacitate the Rancor, giving Cal a chance to attack.
For players who just want to defeat the Rancor without risking defeat,climbing up the grateleading to the previous area will allow Cal to get out of the beast’s range. From here, Cal canthrow his Lightsaber down at the beast to damage it, but this method can take a significantly long time.
When the Rancor has been defeated, a prompt will appear, marking the end of the Find the Missing Prospectors Rumor. Before leaving the Sodden Grotto, however, Cal shouldscan the Rancor’s remainsto obtain theRancor Data Entry, after which he can interact with the Force Essence at the back of the room to acquire theShatter Perk.
