    The spots in the other two videos didn't work for me, but the video linked below had a spot that worked first try, and seems a lot more forgiving (since it doesn't seem to require jumping at the "very last second").

    The Bort TheMake sure you boost forward after jumping to get the distance.

    Actually, this is quite simple and there's no need to go to a specific spot to do it. But you have to use a specific profile to make it possible (or at least less frustrating).

    Use the biotic propulsion as your jump set. That way you'll have a little gain both in height and distance. There are two profiles with biotic propulsion: Biotic (what a surprise!) and Explorer. Select one of those.

    All you need to do is find a cliff significantly high in any planet. Yes, you don't need to go to a specific planet, just have to find a good cliff. Just run to the edge, jump and dash forward.

    Now, the key point is timing your jump and dash forward to attain enough distance...

    The important part: when you press the cn_A button, you need to press and hold it all the way during the jump. Don't tap it. Doing that will reduce significantly the distance of your jump. You also have to wait a little while before pressing cn_B to dash. Wait Rider starts to fall and immediatly dash forward, pressing and holding cn_B.

    There's an alternative way for gaining speed before the jump. You can dash, jump and dash again. But it will make it more difficult as you can easily lose the edge of the cliff, falling down directly without even jump...

    There's a little delay before the achievement unlocking. It may take up to 5 or 6 seconds...
    I did it myself in a cliff next to the settlement on Voeld, but I know others who did it on Elaaden and even Havarl...

    Echo YinThank you!!! All the other solutions didn't work for me, but when I noticed your alternative way to jump, it worked! The achievement had bugged me for so long that I was ready to give up. Thank you again!

    The MalkiTanx for the feedback. The other solutions seems to complicate things limiting to a specific spot and not distressing the key point that's the proccess of jumping... Anyway, I'm really glad I could help you. I hope this solution can help many more!

    The following achievement is quite simple and may take many tries to actually unlock, don't fret however as it is Not glitched. Your first chance to unlock this is after reaching EOS and unlocking the Mako.

    From the point you start in the Mako, follow the trail and up the hill it takes you then take a left and you will see a S.A.M. Memory as a green flashing orb, this is where we will jump from and get an easy 30m.

    You will need to position yourself how I did in my video or how Pyx did in his video, get a running start then boost jump off the cliff at the last second and boost dash while in mid air to give yourself some distance. Sometimes you'll land it, sometimes it'll just black you out and send you back up to the top. I have tested it across 3 accounts and have unlocked it the same way every single time so it will unlock.

    Here are 2 guides showcasing the areas where we both did it:

    As you can see in my video I bounced off a rock, however the rock is not needed and if you land next to it you will unlock it.

    As you can see in Pyx's video, he landed just before the game kicked him back up to the mountain ridge.

    Any questions please let me know and any negative vites, please leave a reason.

    TheCraig1981Plenty of comments to confirm already, tried several times, no joy - Switched to Adept, worked first try.

    The MalkiI did it in Voeld, on the first high cliff I've found, near the Outpost. The key things it's not only using biotic jump (Biotic and Explorer profiles), but holding down the A button all the way during the jump and pressing B for dodge as soon as Ryder starts to fall. Got it first try and shared this "method" with other friends who could do it in other places, like Eladeen and even Havarl!
