How do you complete Jinx Fixes Everything Act 1? Riot has treated us to a very special Arcane-themed minigame within the League of Legends client, and its first act takes place just before the events of Arcane season two, episode two. There are a couple of finicky conundrums that could prove troublesome, so we’ve pulled together all our tips and tricks into this handy walkthrough. Spoilers ahead.
Jinx has brought Sevika’s busted cyborg arm back to her Zaun workshop to give it some much-needed TLC after Vi disarmed her (sorry) in the first season of Arcane. League of Legends’ scrappiest inventor needs to collect some parts from her old stomping grounds to grant the limb new life, so read on to find out how to gather them in the MOBA game’s in-client experience.
Here are the steps to complete Jinx Fixes Everything Act 1:
- Collect the display cards from the scoreboard
- Free Chomper from the shooting gallery
- Collect the box of stuff
- Collect the coil from the claw machine
- Assemble Sevika’s arm
Collect the display cards from the scoreboard
After plonking Sevika’s arm down in the assembly area, peep the scoreboard to the right. Head around the back of it and you’ll see a padlock that you need to crack to reveal the display cards.
The lock has three movable cogs that need to be pressed in this order:
- x1 Left
- x8 Middle
- x1 Right
- x3 Middle
- x3 Right
- x3 Middle
With the back of the board now open you’re free to collect the display cards. Now it’s time to head to the shooting gallery.
Free Chomper from the shooting gallery
After entering the shooting gallery you’ll be reunited with Chomper, but there’s a catch. Big Chompy is bolted into the floor, and the only way to free it is to push it all the way to the end of the track. Chomper will move in the direction you’re facing, marked by a spectral indicator as pictured above.
The order to release Chomper is as follows:
- Right
- Forward
- Left
- Back
- Right
- Forward
- Left
- Forward
- Right
- Forward
- Right
- Forward
Once Chomper is free, pick it up and skedaddle.
Collect the box of stuff
Before heading to the claw machine, look at the box of stuff that’s lying on the floor opposite the entrance to the shooting range. Pick it up, and you’re one step closer to being done. Now it’s time to collect the final piece of the arm.
Collect the coil from the claw machine
The final component of Sevika’s shiny new arm is a wire coil that’s currently sitting pretty in the smashed claw machine in the back right corner of the room. Before you can yank it out of there, however, you need to wind up the wire.
To wind up the wire you can either click the coil or hold down on it to get it going. However, if you click too slowly then it won’t wind, while holding it down for too long will cause it to spin too fast, resetting the puzzle. You can tell it’s starting to go too fast when you hear a sharp sound effect.
Our way (the pro way) of doing it is to hold your cursor down in short bursts, briefly letting go when the warning sound plays before continuing. With enough momentum, it will be no time before the wire is wrapped.
Assemble Sevika’s arm
With all four components collated, it’s time to head back to the assembly area. Drop off the parts in their designated spots and you’ll be able to interact with Sevika’s arm once more. After Jinx has finished with her upgrades, pick up the newly assembled arm. Congrats, you’ve finished Jinx Fixes Everything Act 1.
