Drop down and go through the door. Shoot the grav box on the left so it lowers and place it under the button on the roof. Place two boxes under the ring on the right and attach a rope to the top one. Remove the lower box so the top box pulls the ring down.
Dangle from the ring on the left and shoot an arrow at the grav box so it lifts up and presses the button, opening the door to the right.
On the bridge you’ll face the Bridge Guardian. Bounce back its bombs a couple of times and then go in for a melee attack.

Break through the boards and break the vines above the door on the inside for Experience. Box across the spike pit and plank up or Wind Leap to the ledge on the right.
Take out the Clockwork Machines and Drone. Then use the grav box on the magnet wheel to turn it around. Change the direction of the grav box to make the wheel turn. Place another box attached to it on the ground so the wheel doesn’t spin back. Remove the grav box and place it on the ground so it can turn the wheel again. Do this a few times until it lights up.
