I'm still in doubt whether to use ascend, feels like fast travel. But also seems to be the only way (next to fast travel) to get out of the depths as the balloons simply get stuck on the fog ceiling and then despawn. I got a dozen light roots activated so far, made it to the south end of the map in the depths and stumbled onto a labyrinth last night, Gerudo desert one I think. There is no way in in the depths, both sides are locked with a solid gate. There's a central shaft leading up so maybe you get into it from Hyrule?

Still haven't found the 3rd set of the glowing gear set (of there is a third piece), every mine I find now has a crystalized charge in the chest. Also a mysterious arena like platform with some ice blocks to melt yet nothing appeared. I kinda feel like I'm running around chapter 3 in Death Stranding before any of the quests are active, exploring the world before the (story) actors move in. Fun to explore but feels like I have to go back to many sections later for (side) quests.

Stuff is getting harder to kill, dropped weapons start to get better as well. I'm definitely 'leveling' up despite not doing any shrines. Mini bosses stay off limits, avoid. Just too big of a bullet sponge, weapons break too fast on those. Sneak around them and keep exploring, mapping the depths. It's easy to spot the next light root now balloons are available at every build station. Float up with some wood fire and mark the next couple. Getting there is a lot harder, the cliffs and mountains in the depths can be quite extreme. Climbing for 5-10 minutes from ledge to ledge when no balloon option available. The world is massive down here.

There are puzzles that you can only solve with ascend
