To destroy rock walls in Star Wars Outlaws you need the power option for your blaster from the bolt module. When you get it, you’ll unlock a charged shot that can punch through objects made of Amberine. You know, those tricky ones that bring up a yellow symbol when you try to shoot them? Yes, those.

While staring at walls you can't get past is annoying, there’s hope. You’ll just need to find the charged Power Bolt that destroys these rocks in Star Wars Outlaws, and it’s really only a matter of time. Oh, and know-how. Read on to find how, and when, you'll get it.

To destroy rocks in Star Wars Outlaw, you need the Bolt modification for the blaster, the first of the "Power" options. 

When you have the Bolt, you can equip it by holding down the Triangle/Y button you would normally press to swap weapon modes. Once equipped, simply fire at the rock or wall blocking your way to destroy it in Star Wars Outlaws.

The Bolt is unlocked after completing your first main story mission, once you've decided which planet you should go to first in Star Wars Outlaws. Specifically, after unlocking Hyperspace and the ability to go to other planets, you'll be given three different main questlines to do in any order you choose, all set on different Star Wars Outlaws planets. After completing the first quest of any of the three questlines, you'll get a call from ND-5 and a quest called Gunsmith, which will then unlock the Bolt - head back to the workbench on the Trailblazer and you'll be able to craft the Bolt Modification for Kay's blaster.
