Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst – How to unlock fast travel, Gridnode Run

To unlock fast travel to safe houses through Glass, you must complete the various Gridnode side quests, the first of which must be completed as part of the story after the Savant Extraordinaire quest. Later Gridnodes for other districts will be unlocked as you continue playing through the story.

Each Gridnode is an intricate puzzle platformer within a server stack, where you have to find your way to a complex loaded with circuit boards to unlock a CCU. Lasers block your path, and while you can safely pass through them, only completing a full course undetected will unlock the “Undetected Surge” achievement.

Run grid node

Unlocks: Fast travel to The Lair (Zephyr Transit Hub, Downtown), Plastic’s Lair (Crystal Valley, Anchor), Eden Village (Eden Village, Anchor); Main quest ‘Benefactor’; The Metagrid and Gridnode Downtown side quests; ‘Devastation’ Achievement

Reminder: This side quest is found as part of the main story, after the Savant Extraordinaire quest.

Climb up the circuit board in front of you to enter the main building proper. Here, you must go around the outside of the room avoiding the blue lasers. Go along the wall over the first double lasers on the left, under the one above, and to the end wall. With the path ahead, make sure the wall is high enough to clear the laser just below, then climb the circuit board ladder and go around the outside.

In the far corner, this is much easier if you run cleanly up the wall and jump to the walkway, but if you fall short, you can crawl under the laser and climb back up to the center walkway on the far side.

Once you’re on the central walkway, go to the other side of the floor, climb the circuit board ladder, turn around and cross the top post. Climb the two ledges and you’ll notice three lasers blocking your path in the middle; Climb up to the corner and the wall passes over them. Go to the other side of the wall, climb the circuit board ladder on the right, turn around and go to the tinted room in the corner.

From here everything is simple; go up the circuit board stairs, through the vent, through the conference room, down the stairs and use the computer. If you managed to complete the mission without being discovered, you will unlock the “Undetected Surge” achievement, but if not, there are many other Gridnode missions that allow you to unlock it; see below.

Go back up the stairs and down the elevator to go back outside. Run forward to activate the cutscene. Now you have to evade the K-Sec alert phase. Using Runner’s Vision and the map as a guide, run past all the enemies, as with enough momentum their shots won’t affect you. Don’t worry about the radar and aerial helicopters, as when you return to the Crystal Valley safe house, the alerts will disappear. Talk to Plastic in his lair to complete the mission.

Note that at this point you can now infiltrate future Gridnodes to access other safe houses in Glass City. At this time, three have already been unlocked: Plastic’s Lair in Crystal Valley, The Lair in Zephyr Transit Hub, and Eden Village in Eden Village. Fast travel to the latter so you can start the next quest, Benefactor.
