How to climb on the Picnic Table in Grounded 2

Before we start our ascent, it is essential to know why we are climbing the table. The main reason we presume would be to collect Blueberries, as the table is one of its two sources in the game. There’s also a fun side quest leading to a locked Briefcase on the table and a main quest that requires you to hack ORC Transmitters.

Step-by-step guide to climb Picnic Table:

Upon reaching the area, look for the side where the tablecloth touches the ground. This is the spot where you’ll start your climb. Throughout the way, you’ll encounter multiple ORC Weevils.

The tablecloth is steeper towards the right side, and there is a ledge on the left side. Continue through the ledge to reach the bench of the Picnic Table. The bench will have multiple Lawn Mites and spiders.

To reach the top of the Picnic Table, you must go to the other side of the bench with the briefcase. Look for a gap in the cloth with spiderwebs leading to a wooden mallet. This area contains multiple spiders, so beware.

Inside the cave, use the boxes of candy to climb on the mallet and cross the gap. However, don’t let your guard down, as the other side contains multiple Cockroach Nymphs.

After crossing the gap, look for a cooling box beside the briefcase. There will be a small hole at the bottom of the box that will lead you to the top. The box contains ice, which inflicts the Chilled status effect, so bring cold-resistant armor.

The top of the Picnic Table contains two ORC Ladybugs. One of them will be guarding the ORC Transmitter you must hack. There will also be an Orb Weaver under the tablecloth guarding the Blueberries.

Tips on surviving the Picnic Table climb

Besides everything, the most crucial step is to set up a temporary respawn point near the base of the Picnic Table. It will eliminate the traveling time if you die fighting a bug. Throughout your entire journey, you'll come across enemies regularly across each section, so we recommend saving the game each time you reach a checkpoint.

The table also doesn’t let you place any structures to craft anything complex, so bring everything you need inside your backpack. Food items that can help recover health and boost stamina should be the priority. The climb will take some time, so start early in the morning to avoid spending the night on the table.
