To get to the PB Expansion is somehow tricky, as you need to get a maximum height for some Screw Attacks. Anyway here's how I did it.
+
[[Sequence_Breaking|Back to '''Sequence Breaking''']]
First activate the turret. Then Screw Attack onto the floating platform with the morph ball cannon and space jump onto the upper ring again. Now look at the door leading to the elevator. There is a tall rock left of it, with a plain surface and some mechanical stuff left of it. Screw Attack onto that rock and face the floating platform again. Now is where the fun begins. Use the mechanical stuff next to the rock to get a ghetto effect for the space jump before starting a screw attack to the upper part of the floating platform. If you're very lucky, you'll make it onto the floating platform. If you're not that lucky, you'll hit the "fence" of the platform, fall down and respawn at the top part of the plattform. If you're not lucky at all, you'll respawn at the lower part of the platform. Once on the upper part of the platform use the turret to destroy the stone in front of the PB Expansion. Then turn to see the platform with the dead Luminoth. Jump onto the fence and do a Screw Attack over to the platform. You'll need to get a maximum of height out of the Screw Attack, otherwise you'll bounce of and fall. If you did it correctly, you'll hit the edge of the platform and slip over it. Now you can Screw Attack over to the PB Expansion.

Discovered by: Zell(concept), Sparky(triggers needed/path), Kip(accomplishing with early screw)

Requirements: Early Screw Attack and Spiderball.

1) Get both the Spiderball and Early Screw Attack.

2) Now go to Sanctuary entrance(where Dark Samus destroys the bridge).

3) Jump on the crate to your right when facing away from sanctuary.

4) Now jump on the pole to your left when facing away from sanctuary.

5) Screw attack to the platform below the turret.

6) Jump up into the Spiderball glass ring below the turret.

7) Screw attack back towards sanctuary and into the glass room with the scan pole(this is the room you would normally access by breaking the glass with a powerbomb).

8) Scan the pole, jump onto it, then jump out of the glass room.

9) Use the morph ball cannon to shoot back up and reach the turret to the right of the bridge.

10) Now proceed as you normally would: destroy the rock wall above sanctuary and above the door on the other side, and the debris to the right of sanctuary's entrance. Then Drop down, spider up to the top of Sanctuary, and screw attack or morph ball cannon across to get the expansion.



Another way to get early PB without Spider Ball discovered by Frozen Mr. Toastbrot

Requirements: Early Screw Attack

1) Activate the turret as described above (Step 2-8).

2) Get to the Spiderball glass ring again.

3) Turn around to see the metal tower of the bridge and jump onto one of the "arms" of the tower.

4) Look at the floating platform with the turret again and Screw Attack over to it.

5) Once on the upper part of the platform use the turret to destroy the stone in front of the PB Expansion.

6) Screw Attack to the slightly slanted part behind the blue cylinder above the Spider Ball track.

7) Space Jump around the cylinder and start a Screw Attack to the red edge above the door to Power Junction. Delay each jump of the Screw Attack as long as possible, to get the distance needed to reach the red edge.

8) Screw Attack over to the PB Expansion as usual.

Important notes (for both methods):

- Getting the PB expansion only gives you 1 power bomb

- You still must defeat the PB guardian and obtain the main PB expansion later on for the sky temple key in Dark Agon: Dark Oasis to appear. This trick is still handy for getting PB's early and avoid backtracking until sky temple key collection.


I thought this would work, but it currently doesnt, Maybe you can use it for ideas... :::Who is the author of this?:::


Note by zell99: That was my original idea of which you can get a video here but Red Scarlet confirmed that the pole needed to be scanned and nobody found a way over the glass except with early screw.

Maybe you can get across using a kip dash similar to Early Screw Attack to get over in the cage (by Going into the Abyss beside it.)
