Phendrana's Edge is a room located in the Phendrana Drifts region of Metroid Prime. It is a large vertical room that is mainly significant for being required to access the Artifact of Spirit, which is located in Storage Cave. The door to Storage Cave is locked behind a Plasma Beam door and a destructible rock that needs to be destroyed with a Power Bomb.

Without Grapple Beam

It is possible to climb Phendrana's Edge and obtain the Artifact of Spirit and Power Bomb Expansion without Grapple Beam by using a combination of L-Jumps and R-Jumps.

Any% Conditions

The easy method is to jump onto the bridge, then jump to the branch, then do a Slope Jump off the branch to reach the platform. Then it's trivial to reach the Artifact of Spirit. The Power Bomb Expansion can be obtained by doing an R-jump in place of using the Grapple Beam on the Glider.

The more difficult, but faster, method is to jump on the rocks by the door, then jump directly to the branch.

Low% Conditions (No Space Jump)

It is very difficult, but possible, to climb Phendrana's Edge and obtain the Artifact of Spirit under 21% conditions.

  1. Dash to the side platform. This can also be done with a laddered DBJ.
  2. Do a very precise dash to the branches on the side of the room. It is generally assumed that this dash requires a 1-frame B press to get the distance.
  3. UBJ or HBJ to the platform, then L-Jump to the next platform.
  4. Do a precise laddered DBJ to the next platform.
  5. Dash to the platform with the door. There is a consistent setup for this dash that involves pausing, but it is possible to do it without pausing.

Climbing from the Bottom

Sometimes it's important to have a backup strat in case you fall to the bottom of the room.

No Space Jump

Rock Wall Clip from Inside

If for any reason you find yourself in Storage Cave without having first destroyed the wall, it is possible to get past the wall from within by getting stuck in a way where Samus gets repositioned outside.

Secret World

With Space Jump

Go to the top of the room and position the Glider so that it aims you directly toward a large rock outcropping on the Power Bomb Expansion side. Jump once, then grapple the Glider and swing toward the rock. Just before the peak of the grapple swing, let go and hold L, then press B to jump again. Once you land on the rock, you will need to jump carefully around the pillar and on top of the Glider. Once on the Glider, jump clear of the level.

With Floaty Jump
