Navigating to the Gravity Suit in Metroid Prime Remastered

In Metroid Prime Remastered, acquiring the Gravity Suit is a crucial milestone that enhances Samus's ability to explore underwater areas. This guide will walk you through the steps to obtain the Gravity Suit, providing detailed instructions and tips to help you navigate the game efficiently.

Requirements Before Obtaining the Gravity Suit

Before you can get the Gravity Suit, you need to ensure you have acquired several key upgrades and defeated certain bosses. Here are the prerequisites:

• Wave Beam: Essential for accessing certain doors.
• Super Missile: Needed for various obstacles.
• Thermal Visor: Helps in identifying the Gravity Suit in the murky waters.
• Spider Ball: Required to traverse specific areas.
• Ice Beam: Necessary for progressing through the Phendrana Drifts.

Additionally, you should have defeated the mini-boss Sheegoth and the true boss Thardus in the Phendrana Drifts.

Pathway to the Gravity Chamber

To get the Gravity Suit, follow these steps:

1. Return to Phendrana Drifts: If you are not already there, make your way back to this area.
2. Navigate Through Phendrana Shorelines: Start from the Phendrana Shorelines and head to the Quarantine Cave, where you previously defeated Thardus.
3. Use the Spider Ball: Inside the Quarantine Cave, use the Spider Ball to cross over to the South Quarantine Tunnel.
4. Reach Magmoor Caverns South Transport: From the South Quarantine Tunnel, proceed to the Magmoor Caverns South Transport but do not use it. Instead, take the Spider Ball track located behind the lift.
5. Enter the Frost Cave: Make your way to Frozen Pike and take the purple door to access the Frost Cave. There is a Save Station here; use it to save your progress.
6. Access the Gravity Chamber: From the Frost Cave, navigate through the Upper Edge Tunnel to Phendrana’s Edge. Underwater, directly below the door you entered, find another door that leads to the Hunter Cave and finally to the Gravity Chamber.

Obtaining the Gravity Suit

Once you are in the Gravity Chamber:

• Locate the Gravity Suit: The Gravity Suit is on the opposite side of the chamber, marked by an S-shaped Metroid symbol. Use your Thermal Visor to help identify it in the water.
• Collect the Gravity Suit: Jump onto the ledge to obtain the Gravity Suit.

What to Do After Obtaining the Gravity Suit

With the Gravity Suit equipped, you can now move freely underwater and access previously inaccessible areas:

1. Return to Hunter Cave and Frozen Pike: Use the Wave Beam door to exit the Gravity Chamber and head back to Hunter Cave and then Frozen Pike.
2. Access Magmoor Caverns South: Climb to the door at the top of the room, pass through Transport Access, and ride the elevator to Magmoor Caverns South.
3. Proceed to Tallon Overworld: Visit the Save Station behind the elevator and then head to Transport to Tallon Overworld West. Pass through Magmoor Workstation, Geothermal Cave, and Twin Fires to reach the elevator.
4. Explore the Frigate Crash Site: From Tallon Overworld, navigate to the Frigate Crash Site. With the Gravity Suit, you can now explore the underwater areas here, leading to new upgrades and areas.

By following these steps, you will be able to obtain the Gravity Suit and continue progressing through Metroid Prime Remastered with ease.
