Later combat families

The Physicist provides Spike or Astral Rebuke, which support Astralized interactions. The Co-Director supplies Command. Command uses its own charge behavior; do not diagnose it solely by the ordinary Power bar. The twelve combat options across these encounters are separate from story movement tools.

Know the traversal chain

Orientation teaches Double Jump, Elevate and Rush. The Incursion Fault teaches Shift on eligible gravity surfaces. The Subway Fault teaches Reach for designated sphere anchors. Complete each ritual’s exit and final objective after learning its tool so the quest chain can advance.

Change a choice or diagnose a failure

Use Loadout for owned selections and forms. A different mutually exclusive reward uses the relevant reset flow in The Gap; inspect its Reset Item confirmation. A Resonant Token is a different resource for an additional reward. If an owned ability fails, check inputs, current resource and objective restrictions before spending either resource.
