In Sons of the Forest, the rope launcher is a useful tool with which you can pull ropes between various objects. Thus, you can get to hard-to-reach places or avoid battles with cannibals. However, it can be difficult to get it, as it is hidden deep in a cave infested with mutants. In this guide, we will tell you where to find the zipline and how to use it.

Before you go in search of this tool, we advise you to prepare well, as serious enemies will be waiting for you in the cave. It will be very good if you get a pistol first, but you can get by with a bow and arrows. Of course, you will need a good source of light, such as beacons, a flashlight, or a torch.

You should also take water and food with you just in case, as your exploration of the dungeons may be delayed. Stock up on medicines, because encounters with monsters will most likely lead to various wounds. After that, you can start looking for a cable launcher.

Note: You don't have to fight the mutants, though. With proper skill, you can easily bypass them in stealth mode or run away from them, as they will not pursue you for a long time.

Pick up timed bombs from the body on the right, take one of them and throw it at the mutant (don't throw it too high or the C4 might bounce off the monster and fly towards you). One explosive should be enough to kill.

To use it, you will need ropes, which can be found in abandoned camps, cannibal settlements, or in random boxes scattered throughout the island. Hooks can be found there or printed with a 3D printer.

Once you've got the right ingredients, craft a zipline, use a cable launcher and shoot at the point you want to hit (for example, the tree ahead). Then make a second shot at the place where you are – you need to shoot a little higher so that it is easier for you to use the cable. You can return the rope by right-clicking on the end point of the grab.
