In the vast and enigmatic deserts of Jedha within Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, players can encounter some of the game's most challenging environmental puzzles. Among these, the Path of Conviction stands out as a particularly intricate and rewarding test of a Jedi's mastery over the Force and their traversal abilities. This complex mechanism, involving a series of interconnected orbs and sliders, is not for the faint of heart and requires precise timing, strategic thinking, and specific upgrades to overcome. Successfully navigating its challenges is essential for players seeking to fully empower Cal Kestis with additional customization options on his journey.

🗺️ Locating the Path of Conviction

To embark on this puzzle-solving endeavor, players must first journey to the arid planet of Jedha. The quest begins at the Arid Flats Meditation Point. From this serene resting spot, adventurers should mount a Spamel—a sturdy, camel-like creature native to the desert—and follow the winding sandy path to the right. The destination becomes visible as two imposing, ancient towers silhouetted against the sky atop a distant plateau.

Upon reaching the base of the plateau, a skirmish with Imperial Stormtroopers awaits. After dispatching the initial threat, Cal must utilize his Upgraded Ascension Cable—an essential upgrade for this entire sequence—to grapple up to a higher landing. Another group of foes guards this area. Once they are defeated, the path forward requires looking upward to find the next cable point to scale the sheer cliff face. Reaching the summit reveals more hostile forces to clear out.

Here, explorers will find a small, hollowed-out crevice containing a Sense Echo, a remnant of the past to collect. To the left of the tower structure, a rope can be severed with a lightsaber slash, creating a valuable shortcut for later. Sliding down this rope deposits Cal into a gulch below, where a final contingent of battle droids and Stormtroopers must be eliminated. With the area secured, the intricate machinery of the Path of Conviction puzzle comes into full view, ready to be deciphered.

🧩 Understanding the Puzzle Mechanics

The core of the Path of Conviction is a kinetic apparatus consisting of three Force-sensitive Orbs and four guiding Sliders. The puzzle operates on a cause-and-effect principle: manipulating an orb with a Force Push or Force Pull will physically move its corresponding slider or platform. However, a crucial twist adds a layer of urgency: when certain orbs are pulled, they will slowly roll back to their original positions, imposing a strict time limit on subsequent actions. Mastery of the Dash Jump ability is also highly beneficial for navigating the space quickly.

From the starting outcrop of rock where Cal stands after the battle, the layout can be surveyed. The key components are:

Component	Location Description	Primary Function
Orb 1 / Slider 1	Closest to the start, on the left.	Controls the alignment of Slider 4.
Orb 2 / Slider 2	Across the gulch, lowest to the ground.	The target orb that must reach the plateau top.
Orb 3 / Slider 3	High up on the right wall from the start.	Finalizes the alignment of Slider 4 for the ascent.
Slider 4	The longest, curving slider.	The final channel to launch Orb 2 to the summit.

Additionally, a floating balloon serves as a critical Ascension Cable Point, allowing for rapid traversal across the wide gulch that bisects the puzzle arena.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution Guide

Solving the Path of Conviction is a multi-stage process requiring flawless execution. Follow these steps precisely to claim the prize.

Phase 1: Initial Alignment and Orb Placement

1. From the starting position, use Force Pull on Orb 1. This action lowers a section of Slider 4, which holds Orb 2, and connects it with Slider 2.

2. Immediately use the Ascension Cable point to swing across the gulch to the platform near Orb 2.

3. Once across, Force Push Orb 2 through Slider 2. It should come to rest on the far right side of the gulch. Successfully doing this causes a new rock outcrop to materialize next to Slider 3.

Phase 2: The Tricky Realignment

1. From this new outcrop, you can now interact with Orb 3. Use Force Pull on Orb 3. This crucial move aligns Slider 4 into its final position, creating a path to the top. However, Orb 1 has now begun rolling back.

2. The most delicate part follows. You must return to the starting outcrop (using the cable point). Before Orb 1 fully resets, use Force Pull on Orb 1 again. This lifts Orb 2 back from the right side into a raised position aligned with the now-properly-oriented Slider 4. Timing is extremely tight here.

3. If performed correctly, Orb 2 will be poised at the base of Slider 4. Quickly leap down to the lower platform where Orb 2 sits and give it a final Force Push.

Phase 3: The Final Ascent and Reward

1. If your sequence was fast enough, Orb 2 will roll through Slider 4 and shoot up to the top of the plateau. Swing back across the gulch to the platform with your created rope shortcut.

2. Climb the shortcut rope to return to the plateau's summit. There, you will find Orb 2 waiting in a horizontal slider. A final Force Push sends it rolling toward the two large towers, which will lower in response.

3. As the towers descend, a previously hidden stone staircase materializes to the right. Ascend these steps to claim your hard-earned reward.

🎁 The Path of Conviction's Prize

The culmination of this cerebral and dexterity-testing challenge is a significant gameplay enhancement. By conquering the Path of Conviction, Cal Kestis is granted a new Perk Slot. This invaluable bonus allows for greater customization of his capabilities, enabling players to equip an additional Perk and further refine their preferred combat and exploration style. It is a fitting reward for those who demonstrate the patience, precision, and conviction of a true Jedi.
