Mastering ODM Gear Movement and Aerial Maneuvers

Controlling Hook Movement

Upgraded Omni-Directional Mobility (ODM) gear introduces vertical and directional adjustments while you are anchored to terrain or structures:

1. Equip your gear alongside combat armor such as the APG Suit Chestplate and APG Suit Boots.

2. Launch your hooks into a target surface to anchor yourself.

3. Hold W while attached to pull your character upward toward your anchor point.

4. Hold S while attached to slide downward in a controlled descent.

These controls allow you to adjust your elevation and angle of attack without detaching your hooks.

Performing Aerial Dashes

When dodging titan strikes or closing distance quickly:

1. While airborne and actively using your ODM gear, double-tap Space.

2. Your character will perform a rapid dash in your current direction of motion.

3. Combine upward reeling (W) with the double-tap dash to launch yourself over obstacles or gain altitude above enemy weak points.
