Getting around Kairos isn’t hard once you’ve figured out the shortcuts, but until then it can feel like it’s eating up all your time. First thing you’ll want to do—make it a habit—is to unlock Fast Travel stations every time you spot one. That first activation run can be dull, but it’s worth it.

Once they’re active, you can pop open your map and jump straight to them without trekking miles. Just know it works one way—you can’t zap from a station to some random spot. So, yeah, make grabbing these stations a priority. It’ll make your life way easier, especially if you’re trying to farm loot or do missions back-to-back. If you’re aiming to save grind time for better things, like stocking up on Borderlands 4 Cash, this is the foundation you’ll be glad you built early.

Between those fast travel points, don’t even think about walking across the big open stretches—get yourself a ride. The Catch-A-Ride spots are your go-to for that. Spawn a vehicle instead of wearing out your boots. Right now, the Sand-Skimmer’s the best choice for deserts. Quick acceleration, smoother over dunes than the chunky Outrunner.

Upgrade as soon as you can—a booster upgrade can save your skin when things get hairy. I’ve dodged more than a few firefights just by punching the booster and blasting away before enemies locked on. Honestly, you’ll end up using this way more than you’d think, especially when you’re low on health.

When you’re in tight areas—bandit camps, indoor bases—vehicles won’t help much. That’s all about using your own movement smartly. Sliding is your friend; it’s not just style, it’s speed and defense. You’re smaller, faster, and can pop right up shooting. Tap-slide through open areas, chain it with a jump for extra reach. And learn to mantle—Kairos is packed with vertical paths, secret caches, and mission bits hidden up high. Don’t just follow stairs. Check for climbable ledges, platforms, and high ground. You’ll find shortcuts, avoid fire, and snag loot others miss.

Then there’s the odd stuff on Kairos—Gravity Geysers. You’ll spot them by the shimmer, kind of bluish vents in the ground. Step on one and it’ll fling you sky-high, letting you glide over huge chunks of terrain. These things are gold for skipping hostile zones.

Why slog through a canyon full of bandits when you can just soar across? And with the right angle, you can reach places that look impossible to get to. Figure out when to fast travel, when to grab a ride, and when to trust the terrain boosts, and Kairos suddenly feels way smaller. Makes the grind almost disappear—more time for the fun stuff, like grabbing u4gm Borderlands 4 Cash.
