After finding the Dark Maker satellite deep in the volcano and retrieving the Dark Eco artifact, Jak teleports back to the monk temple entrance. |
 |
Jak's next mission is to explore the monk temple catacombs deep inside the mountain. On the far cliff wall of the temple courtyard, there's another Dark Eco Invisibility Receptor. Go up and go invisible. Now run back to the right and look for the temple entrance. Run past the "seeing eye" guarding the temple doors and go inside. Wait for Jak's invisibility to wear off and load the Beam Reflexor. MetalHead scorpions are crawling all over the place. Shoot them all before they bite. |
 |
Slowly walk down the flights of stairs to the bottom, being mindful that scorpions may be running up the stairs that you may not be able to see til the last minute. Walk around the corner to the left. Up ahead is a small chamber with a Dark Eco Vent streaming out from the middle of the floor. Walk over the vent into the light stream and charge up Jak's Dark Eco. Watch the Eco meter in the lower left corner of the screen to make sure it's fully charged. I have a bad feeling about this! |
 |
Activate Jak's Dark Eco Power and walk down the long corridor. Swarms of scorpions start to run down the corridor towards you from the other end. This is creepy! As they get close, Dark Power Slam and kill all the Metalheads with the eco shockwave. Once Jak is exhausted and turns normal again, go back to the Eco vent and recharge with Dark Eco. DON'T GO INTO DARK ECO MODE YET. Walk down the corridor to the circular cathedral room. DON'T GO INTO THE CENTER! |
 |
The small island platform in the center of the room, with the ringed steps, is protected by 8 hover security lasers. If you venture anywhere near the middle, the lasers will kill you instantly. Instead, walk around the perimiter of the cathedral and look for a Dark Eco Invisibility Receptor Go invisible. Now run up the circular steps in the middle, past the security lasers (undetected) and stand in the middle until the invisibility wears off and back to normal. Activate Dark Eco Power. |
 |
In Dark Eco mode, Power Slam the platform. This will 1.... destroy all the hovering lasers with the Eco shockwave, and 2.... punch the platform sensor switch opening a set of doors. After Jak goes normal, run back down the 1st corridor and recharge with Dark Eco. Find the new set of doors in the cathedral room and walk down that corridor. More scorpions are coming. Load the Beam Reflexor and fire away. There's alot of them. Probably 40-50. Keep firing til they're gone. |
 |
In the next chamber something really strange. Kind of like a mechanical room. Overhead there's driveshafts spinning. As you walk up, the sections slam shut with gates. Walk to the left. All the moving poles are electrified and controlled by a "seeing eye" at the other end. Mounted in the wall is a Dark Eco Invisibility Receptor. Jump up and go invisible. Monkey-bar across the moving poles to the other side. As you land, the "seeing-eye" evaporates. Swing through the next 4 sections. |
 |
Out the other end of the room, walk down the steps. In the small chamber whack all the vases. Lots of Metakhead Skull Gems and a few bonus Precursor Orbs. Walk out to the catacombs with the Great Oracle stone statue. [Movie Sequence begins]. On a faraway balcony in the catacombs, Veger talks to Seem. They are talking strategy about getting more Light Eco Crystals so Veger can go deep into the catacombs and find the Planetary Defense System. Jak is curious? |
 |
Jak approaches the Oracle. He speaks and welcomes the great warrior. The Oracle is concerned that the situation looks grim and Jak is their only hope to change events that are about to unfold. The Oracle gives Jak a new Light Eco Regeneration Power He says to Daxter (as he freaks out) that he feels better. This new Light Eco Power allows Jak to restore health points when injured. Power up with Light Eco and use the nearby teleport ring to go back to the surface. |
 |
Jak & Daxter teleport back to the monk temple courtyard out by the Wasteland desert. Go out the entrance and take the long walk back to your Dune Hopper. Climb in and drive back down the canyon. Jump across the islands and back to the main desert area. Of course, the Marauders have been waiting for you. Make your way back to the garage area. After you've parked the vehicle, go to Damas. He has a new rescue mission for you. |
