How to find places to climb in XC3

After you do all this, you'll unlock a new XC3 class, and Valdi will show you how to climb purple vines and walls. Even when you get the Wall Climbing skill, you wouldn't be able to climb everywhere you want, even if you increase your jump height. You'll have to find purple vines on a map to reach higher platforms. You'll see grappling hook icons that show places where you can climb. Explore all these locations, as many of them will lead you to secret areas.

Another important use of climbing is for escaping enemies. Luckily, they can't climb, so you can evade some challenging encounters by simply climbing on walls. That can be a real lifesaver on many occasions. This skill is just one of many that will help you survive while adventuring throughout Aionios.
