Escape a Wall Grab and Reposition

Kick Off the Wall

While hanging on any wall surface, double-tap your Crouch key within 0.7 seconds. Your character will kick off the wall and leap away, giving you momentum to reach a nearby ledge, platform, or safer surface.

Use Momentum Strategically

The kick-off launches you horizontally away from the wall, not upward. Plan your escape toward a visible landing spot. This is especially useful when you've grabbed a wall but realize it's not the best position, or when you need to reach a parallel wall or platform.

Recover Quickly with Momentum Enchantment

After you slip or kick off a wall, there's a cooldown period before you can grab again. The Momentum enchantment reduces this recovery time, letting you chain wall grabs together more rapidly. This is crucial for navigating narrow vertical shafts or traversing between multiple cliff faces.

Practice Timing

The double-tap window is tight (0.7 seconds). Practice in safe environments first so you can execute the kick-off reliably when it matters in dangerous situations.
