How to unlock Overcharge Ability for BD-1 Walkthrough
There is an entrance to the trench towards the right end, just cross the big metal door. Go to the right, yo cannot move ahead until you unlock the ability. Just on the right of door there is an path covered with pipes cut them and you will see a Workbench.
This place is guarded by a huge spider. It is a tough enemy and keep a few health stims ready with you. You have to evade the spiders web attack, press circle to break if you are caught. Use a lot of evade and roll to avoid the attach and whenever you have chance hit from the back.
The spider can also dash in with full speed that can flip you over, it will take a little time to take down this creature. You can also try to to deflect the web back on the spider, but I am not sure whether it works give it a try.
