Nethros Movement Guide: Wall Hops, Gliders, and Hooks

Climb walls with wall hops

Nethros lets you chain wall hops and upward air dashes to scale vertical surfaces. A successful sequence can be repeated to keep climbing, and there is no fall damage if you miss a landing or drop back down.

  1. Jump toward a vertical surface.
  2. The moment your character contacts the wall, press Space and S together to wall hop backward.
  3. As the wall hop begins, aim the camera upward.
  4. Press Space again to air dash upward.
  5. Repeat the wall hop and upward air dash sequence until you reach the height you need.

The timing begins on wall contact. Keep the camera pointed up before the second jump so the air dash carries you vertically instead of away from the wall.

Buy mobility items

Weapon merchants sell two mobility items at almost every location marked with three vertical sword icons. The Glider is the low-cost option for traveling down from high places, while the Mounted Hook, also referred to as a Grappling Hook, is intended to traverse vertical terrain more quickly.

Mounted Hook / Grappling Hook10,000 YinMove across vertical terrain faster

Look for the three vertical sword marker before searching for either item. The Glider and hook are sold through weapon merchants rather than a separate mobility-only vendor.

Choosing between the Glider and hook

Use the Glider when you already have elevation and want a controlled descent. Use wall hopping when a climb is possible without spending Yin. The Mounted Hook is the more expensive purchased option for faster vertical traversal, while wall hopping remains useful for repeatedly climbing a surface.
