If Borderlands 4 players have managed to breach Idolator Sol's fortress in Rush the Gate, they might have made a small error, in which they've fallen from the large elevator while they were on their way to kill him. While most players might be concerned that they've locked themselves out of completing the mission and making Sol face justice, that isn't the case at all. Below, we'll show you exactly how to fix the Rush the Gate elevator glitch in Borderlands 4 so that you can get back to the top and enjoy the spoils of loot gifted to you by Idolator Sol.
How to Get Back on the Elevator in Rush the Gate
How to Fix the Rush the Gate Stuck Glitch
Once players have entered Fortress Indomita, they will eventually find themselves with the sole objective to kill Idolator Sol. This leads them to a small room with an elevator chamber, but if players manage to miss the elevator and find themselves stuck at the bottom, there is a fix for that. All players need to do is head to the left from within the room, where they can find a platform that contains a lever. Simply pull the lever to see the elevator return. If the lever is inoperable, return to the main menu, and you will respawn within Fortress Indomita, where you can pull it again.
The video above showcases the solution to both elevators in Rush the Gate so you won't have to be stuck for long!
There's also the first elevator in Idolator's Noose just before you enter the fortress, and we've got a fix for that, too. If the elevator is above, then you can flip the switch beside the two Outbounder corpses. However, there's another way up. Simply take the stairs opposite the switch and double jump, where you can grapple all the way to the top.
