PEAK Chain Launcher Item Guide
The Chain Launcher in PEAK is a traversal tool that creates a flat, walkable chain bridge between two points. It is best used for crossing wide gaps where climbing or jumping would fail.
What the Chain Launcher Does
Builds a horizontal bridge
When fired, the Chain Launcher shoots out a chain from your current position to wherever your cursor is pointing. It connects the two points and forms a sturdy bridge you can walk across.
This lets you bypass tough jumps, reach ledges, or support your team during tricky paths.
It is ideal for sideways movement, not for gaining height.

Rope Cannon helps you climb up or down vertical walls using rope

When to Use the Chain Launcher
Crossing gaps that are too far to jump
Making a safe bridge over hazards like spikes or bees
Helping slower teammates get across safely
Saving stamina by avoiding long vertical climbs
Make sure you aim at solid terrain. If the chain fails to connect, it will not create the bridge.
