[movie sequence begins] Emporer Tachyon plugs his Holo commercial about joining his army and becoming an Imperial Commando. Of course, Captain Qwark is his puppet celebrity, endorsing his recruiting campaign. Tahcyon's mission: to find that last living Lombax; whoever he may be; to search every corner of the galaxy and to leave no stone unturned until he is found and killed!

Ratchet & Clank land on a nearby asteroid by the space station. The smuggler is nearby and has a deal. If Ratchet were to go fetch some Leviathan souls for him (let's say 4), he'll give him the access codes to the little space shuttle pod that will take them over to the space station. Apparently, there's a secret research project somewhere inside, from a famous scientist known throughout the galaxy... Max Apogee.

Ok. So let's go hunt some Leviathans. These are the dragon snakes hovering in and around the asteroids. The same guys we fought in Cobalia and will probably see again. Go to the weapons vendor first and load up on everything. I suggest for this mission, that as you collect raritanium, make it a priority to upgrade your predator launcher. It is the most effective and efficient aerial weapon against the Leviathan. What doesn't kill you, WILL make you stronger.

From your spaceship pad, go to the right first. Jump out to the first asteroid. Use the lightning ravager and vaporize the small Cerullean frogs first. Take on the Leviathan with your predator launcher and claim his soul. You'll engage the Leviathen when HE SEES YOU. His health meter appears in the lower right hand corner. You don't need to strafe alot, but stay out of the way of his spray. When done, jump and glide to the back asteroid, use the meteor pad and clean-out the upper deck of the dish tower.

To get to another asteroid in the area, go to the teleport cannon. Aim the cannon to a receiving ring [Beta] for example on another asteroid (all designated by the greek alphabet). Hit [X] and teleport across to the asteroid. As Ratchet passes through the cannon ring, he's atomized and hurled into space. As he enters the receptor ring, he recombines to himself. Clank thinks its cool and too much fun! Ok. Get your bearings and go exploring.

As you walk out to the back of the asteroid, a horde of Cerulleans come to life. A little surprize! Throw a groovitron orb with at least 5 enemies in range and make them dance. This will earn you the Skill Point 16: Dancing With The Stars (10 points). While they're dancing, slash them with your wrench. Pick-up all the raritanium nearby and smash all the crates. Find the meteor pad, super bounce to the high platform, and take down the Leviathan up top for another soul.
|
 |
Heli-glide back down to the first level and back out to the teleport cannon. Find another asteroid [Gamma] or [Delta]. Teleport across. If need be, find the weapons vendor nearby and load up again. Not all the asteroids have vendors, but most do. If you need ammo, you can always teleport back to the vendor by your ship [Alpha]. As you walk onto a new asteroid, select your lightning ravager. There will ALWAYS be a group of hungry little Cerullean frogs waiting.

Some asteroid quadrants will have more then 1 Leviathan to fight. As before, when you come in close contact with a Leviathan, he will engage you. Use your predator launcher in a systematic fashion, locking 3-4 missles at a time and you'll have this fight down to a science. Killing will be easy! Off one asteroid, there will be versa targets out in space. Use your swingshot to traverse the open space. On one far asteroid, you'll find gold bolt #9 and tons of raritanium.
|
 |
On each asteroid, Ratchet will encounter at least one Cerullean Centipede. The long roach-like bugs that stand up and spit venom bombs at you. Make sure you take them down using your wrench comet strike. Taking down 5 Centipedes using only your wrench will earn you Skill Point 15: Knock You Down To Size (10 points). Reminder: Confuzler Gas cannisters work really well in tight spaces with lots of Cerulleans swarming around.

Asteroid quadrant Epsilon is a little different. Right nearby to the teleport cannon, there's a gelatonium tank. Fill the resvoir of your gelanator. Squirt a few gel cubes to bounce up to the high asteroid platforms. You can also use the gelanator to jello a few Cerulleans? Don't forget to go to the very back of the asteroid, squirt 3 gel cubes together, super jump then glide with the thruster pack to the far asteroid. There's lot of crates and raritanium, but more importantly holo-plan piece 3/13.
|
 |
Go to the last asteroid quadrant [Zeta] and take down the last Leviathan. Clean-out the asteroid and load up on all the ammo crates. Use the teleport cannon and fly back to [Alpha] quadrant. Trade your Leviathan souls with the smuggler, for passage in the space pod (you should have at least 4-6). He pays well.. 2,000 bolts for each one you bagged! Before going onto the space station, another round trip.
|
Go to the Alpha Cannon and teleport in this sequence = Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta. Completing the teleport circuit will earn you the Skill Point #14: Alphabet City (10 pts). When done, jump in the space pod and zoom across to the Maintenance Hub or what I call the Gravity PowerCube. you'll see why shortly!
