As Ratchet walks out onto the planet, he is joined by Cronk & Zephyr. The fights ahead are going to be long and drawn out. A swarm of sparkbots immediately appear and 2 transport ships drop Cragmite commandos to the really big platform. Something different first! DON'T SHOOT ANYBODY! When you're surrounded by enemies and dodging fire, throw a groovitron orb into the middle. If you can get everybody dancing, you get Skill Point 50: Chorus Line (20 pts).

Ok. So now you played nice. NO MORE! Load the lightning ravager and whip all the sparkbots. Load the raptor launcher and fire missles at all the hovering Cragmite Imperial guard and shielded commandos. Watch for the Cragmite combat saucers to fly in from the lake. There's lot of them. Use the raptor launcher again and fire a missle as you get in range of each saucer. Another series of tranpsort ships drop more commandos and more Imperial guard. Take em all down.

Chances are you'll run out of ammo during the fight. Go to the perimeter and whack all the ammo crates to recharge while Cronk & Zephyr try to hold them off. Once things die down, Cronk will run up to the gate and bash it down. Walk through the connecting tunnel. Load up with the Weapons Vendor. Another twist! When buying ammo, buy just 1 combuster ammo. This will earn you Skill Point 48: Cheapskate (10 pts). You can do this any time on any planet, I did it now.

More trouble in the next open platform area. Cyclone cannons complicate matters in a hurry. Use your strafe moves and jump the gunfire from the cannons. When they open up, quickly fire 2 raptor launcher missles to tear apart the tank. Take em down, one at a time. Combat saucers fly in from the lake, I mean LOTS! if you run out of launcher missles, run back to the tunnel to the Weapons Vendor. Cronk and Zephyr will keep any Cragmites at bay for a few seconds.

When the Imperial guard and commandos drop in, I switched to the nano-swarmers. I found they helped control the enemy positions alot better. That in combination with the lightning ravager worked well. After the battle settles down a little, 4 big artillery turrets in the wall, open up. YIKES! The ONLY weapon that worked on the turrets was the raptor launcher missles. You have to get close to lock-on a target, but once you do, fire away while their forcefields are down.

After a long fight and all the artillery turrets are destroyed, Cronk and Zephyr guard the ramp. Ratchet can now access the Spaceport. Talwyn chimes in and says she has a lead and thinks she knows where the hidden Lombax weapon is. Meet up with her on the far islands. Walk to the elevator ramp and ride up to the Spaceport.
