As Ratchet leaves his shuttle, the first thing you notice is it's snowing! A winter wonderland. Nearby is a Gadgetron Kiosk. Load up with all your goodies before going anywhere. Hopefully you have already bought the PDA device. To the right, is a small ice lake and a moving bridge platform. Jump to the platform as it stops close to you, and ride to the other side. When it stops, jump off. Load the Rift Inducer right away. The small piles of snow are actually hiding ninja gnomes. Fire one rift grenade as they pop out from the snow.
|
 |
Use Ratchet's overhead tomahawk wrench strike to explode all the stacks of crates. The nearby security cameras are also breakable and explode for more bolts. A the end of the alley, is a hover pad elevator with a warp pad activator. The floor switch to start the hover elevator is back in the middle of the alley. As soon as Ratchet steps off that floor sensor, the elevator resets back at the bottom... Hmmmm? Load the Warp Pad and step on the elevator. Activate the warp signature and then run back to the floor sensor.
|
 |
As Ratchet steps on the sensor, the elevator pad goes all the way to the top. When it stops at the top, warp across [X] to the elevator and jump off at the top (like a mini-teleport). Up top, more ninjas are waiting. Load the Rift Inducer and fire one grenade down the walkway. Load the Annihilator. Look for the robot generator turret near the baracades. Fire 2 missles and take-out the generator. This will stop more ninjas from popping out and attacking.
|
 |
Up ahead, a heavily fortified sidewalk with baracades and lots of Qwark training robots. Load the Holo-Sheild and create a shield right by the baracades. The Qwark robots will start to open fire on you. Load the Agents of Doom and toss 2 canisters nearby. This will activate your security drones and the 2nd group will run ahead and engage the robots in a fire-fight behind the baracades. Load the Annihilator zoom-in and take down the robots while they're distracted.
|
STRATEGY: The Qwark training robots have enough firepower to break-apart the baracades. You may want to wait til the first set of baracades are reduced to rubble before deploying your 2nd set of Agents of Doom? The micro-bots cannot climb or jump across tall baracades. OR.. you can use MegaTurret missles for the same result.
|
 |
Use Ratchet's overhead tomahawk strike to smash all the windows and clean-out every storage room and stacks of crates. At the end of the sidewalk jump up to the ledge to the next ice cave. As you hang from the ledge, you can see more snow ninjas waiting for you up top. Load the Rift Inducer. Jump to the platform, and quickly fire a rift grenade. All the ninjas will get sucked-in. Run around the cave to make sure you wake all the ninjas before the black-hole evaporates.
|
 |
The cave exit is sealed with a forcefield curtain. The forcefield is controlled by a floor sensor. Go up to the forcefield and find the warp pad. Load the Warp Pad set the destination signature, and run back to the floor sensor. While stepping on the sensor, with the forcefield now gone, warp across then quickly walk out to the green terrace. The forcefield will re-generate behind you. This is the one and only CONTINUE POINT. Take down all the ninjas then load up at the Gagetron Kiosk.
|
 |
Time to run the gauntlet. Stand under the guide wire, press [X] and slide down to the ice rink platform. Load the Holo-Shield and generate a shield right away. Load the Agents of Doom and deploy 2 canisters right away. Now quick-load the Annihilator and start taking down the Qwark robots. Hide behind the shield as long as you can. Watch-out for flying robots and 2 robots at the back, up on higher platforms. Load the Flux Rifle and in sniper-mode fire 2 shots at each one.
|
 |
Once the coast is clear, carefully skate across the icy platform. Clean-out all the small pods and then use the ladder at the back to climb up to the next ledge. Load your PDA and stock-up on ammo for your big weapons. There's a Nanotech health cube nearby which I'm sure you'll need. Up ahead, there's an overhead versa-target. Don't use your Hypershot just yet. Load the Flux Rifle. Zoom-in on either pod window inside the building. Behind the frosted glass, are Qwark robots. Fire 2 shots in sniper mode at each robot thru the glass.
|
At least now you'll have a fighting chance to survive the next ambush. Load the Hypershot and tarzan swing across to the building. As you land, a laser turret deploys and a wall collapses, engaging 2 more Qwark robots. Load the Annihilator and take down the 2 robots. Jump to the ledge behind the turret to avoid more injury. YOU CAN'T DESTROY THE TURRET. Use the overhead tomahawk wrench strike to explode the nearby crates and Nanotech health cube. Jump across the ice islands.
|
 |
Load the Quantum Whip and zap all the snow ninjas that ambush you at close range. From the ledge, look down. In the center of the ice rink down below, is another laser turret. Load the MegaTurret and toss one spike down to the ice platform. Let the turret missles take down the turret. Load the Flux rifle and take down the 2 Qwark robots in sniper mode. Heli-glide down to the icy platform. Quickly jump to ground and hide under the ledge as more Qwark robots appear.
|
 |
Load the Agents Of Doom and toss 1 canister to deploy your hover security. Let the 4 hover micro-bots pound away at the robots. Deploy 3-4 canisters this way after each one burns out. You should be able to take care of 2-3 of the Qwark robots. Load the Annihilator and jump to the ledge. Run by the Qwark robots, even as they're shooting at you and run to the end of the corridor. Load the Holo-Shield, deploy a shield, and from a safe distance, peg the remaining Qwark robots.
|
 |
Down the next corridor, more Qwark robots and ninja gnomes. Load the Rift Inducer and fire 2 grenades down past the first set of baracades. The black-hole will zap away at the robots and eventually they'll weaken and get sucked-in. Fire as many grenades as you need, to clean-out the robots. Quick-load the Annihilator to help soften them up for the rift inducer. Watch-out for more robots as your approach Qwark's room. Go the right pod first and clean-out the crates.
|
 |
Walk across to the other pod on the other side of the corridor. Break the glass. Inside grab the Qwark Trophy. This one will now be displayed back inside the Trophy Room on the Phoenix. Walk to Qwark's Hideout. You can see him standing there next to his bed, but the entrance is blocked by a forcefield curtain. It's Clank's turn to go and decativate the forcefield. MISSION COMPLETE.
