How to unlock the Zipper achievement in Rise of the Tomb Raider - Definitive Guide

I tried the other video in the guide, as well as a couple of others on YouTube and couldn't quite get them to work. Here I noticed this would be a perfect place and got it first go without any problems, so just wanted to share the spot with others.

In the story this is immediately after you get the Broadhead Climbing Arrows. If you are past that point then fast travel to the Copper Mill Bridge camp in the Soviet Installation area. Use the climbing arrows to climb up the red wall just right of the camp, you'll then be able to walk up a small ramp and use a zipline which will take you to a small platform with a further zipline down. This is the zipline you'll be using, as you get close to the end be prepared to hit cn_B and aim yourself towards the third and final zipline. This should unlock as you slide down.

I'm sorry in advance that the video isn't longer, and starts while I was already on the zipline, but the GameDVR decided that today wasn't the day it was going to let me record a longer clip.

I just went to the research base's Weather Station base camp. Head north and run through the level a little bit and you'll ride a series of zip lines in doing so. Popped afterwards.

Thanks, it worked on my 2nd attempt. I think I pressed cn_B too late at first.

Likewise....just going through the set of lines down the cablecar section popped it for me without any interaction.

Not sure why all the other solutions are long winded. But after completing the game teleport to the Threshold of Kitezh base camp, located in THE LOST CITY. Right Infront of you is a zip line, go down this and right at the end press B to land on the next one. Easy as that.

Another place to get this is when you get to the lost city and have to use the trebuchet to break the gate...there is a zip line from it you can use and then drop from it to the one below.

You can use the zip line immediately at the start of the Base camp (Threshold of Kitezh). Just hit B immediately before you get to the second zip line - worked first try for me.

Another easy place is during the Baba Yaga DLC. You can do it either during or after the final fight. Obviously it is easier after the fight. There is a ledge, that can be used to jump to the second level of moving platforms. The zipline is on the right side and at the end of the first one is another one, that continues in the same direction, so you don't have to position yourself, just hit B, when you are at the end of the first one.

A manual zip line transfer is when you press to manually let go of the zip line and drop to another zip line below you. A good spot for this is at the campfire/base camp called "Copper Mill Bridge", which is in the South-East of Soviet Installation region). There are two long zip lines connected to each other. While sliding down the first zip line you must press just a second before Lara lets go off it automatically. When you drop onto the next zip line, then the trophy will pop. If you fail, then just restart the checkpoint to get teleported back to the campfire.

A manual zip line transfer refers to using the  button to drop off a zip line and land on another zip line. There are numerous locations in which this can be achieved - for example, in the Soviet Installation region, where there's a series of long zip lines that you'll have to descend; rather than allowing Lara automatically to drop from one to the next, prompt the transfer manually a few moments before you reach the end of one of these. Alternatively, find any location in free-roam where two lines cross each other and drop from one to the other - the zipline ascender item from the Supply Shack will male this easier as it allows you to control Lara's movement on the lines more precisely.

Here are two videos taken from YouTube to illustrate each of these suggested methods:

Received at the location "Soviet Base"

There are a lot of cables and ropes stretched at this location. Our task is to find two cables that intersect (if you look at them from below or from above). As soon as we find such a “duet”, we begin to descend along the upper rope (preferably point the camera down to see the moment of intersection with the lower rope) and when the lower rope is directly in Lara’s affected area, press and fly in the direction of the lower cable. If you did everything with pharmacy precision, Lara will cling to the lower cable herself.

done without special effort after the battle with Baba Yaga. It’s enough to sequentially go down two cables from the top floor (the cables, by the way, don’t intersect, they just hang one after the other)

The trophy is essentially a plot one, because when you do the task at the Soviet base, at the very end you will have to go into the mines, there will be just 2 cables and Lara herself will jump from the first to the second and the trophy will immediately fly to you. Wait until this moment, but if it doesn’t work, then you’ll bother with other tips.

It is necessary to jump from cable to cable, while moving in both directions on each cable.
