- Get ready for a big fight.
- Run forward and grab the extra machine gun ammo, you might need. Start fighting the NEVEC soldiers while staying behind the cover of the truck.
- Once the first few are dead, grapple to the top of the sideways truck. There's a plasma rifle sniper in the guard tower ahead. Toss a grenade at it's legs to blow the whole thing up.
- Then pick off the other soldiers from the top of the truck. Drop down and run for the cover of the crates ahead. There's a rifle lying behind them too. Use the rifle with the cover of the crates to take out the NEVEC soldiers ahead.
- There should now be a ton of energy guns and plasma rifles lying around. Capture the data post and pick up one of each.
- Jump onto the top of the flatbed truck and start clearing out the area below. Use the plasma rifle to take out the rocket turrets while you move back and forth dodging the rockets and laser fire. Once the two turrets are down, switch to the energy gun and use a fully charged blast to knock the pilot out.
- Once this is done, move up to the hole in the wall and start sniping more soldiers below.
- Drop down once they're cleared out. Remember to just lightly step off of the road to use the grapple and descend slowly.
- When you touch the ground, several more soldiers will drop behind you. Waste them and start moving forward again. Several more soldiers are between you and the hangers at the back. Just work through them and watch the top ridge. Two more rocket turrets usually activate, so you may have to destroy those too.
- Shoot the door off of the hanger and grab the VS with the hover ability. It's the one with the shotgun and the Gatling.
- Walk out and grab the homing laser from the stockpile by the guard tower.
- Climb up the bridge and get to the little gap. There's just one more VS on a platform to kill on your side. Try to use the homing laser to pick off any of the VS's you see on the other side.
- You should be able to jump and hover over the lava river.
- Head up to the bunker facility and walk through the room. There's some exploding akrid ahead, so be careful.
- Work through the first room and fight your way into the second room. Drop into the empty lava flow in the center and get out of your VS. Walk forward and head down into the tunnel system.
- The best path is to grapple over to the data post and activate it. Then drop off to the right side and rappel to the platform below. Reply dow to the right again and reach the floor. Get into the driller and break through the first rock blockade.
- There are a bunch of ways through these tunnels. If you manage to keep the driller VS at the start alive, you can use it to drill through the parts blocked by rocks.
- Otherwise just pick a path and keep moving forward. There's dongo and some exploding bugs, but that's about it.
- The general pathway is that three dongo roll by. Kill them as usually.
- Tip: Remember to switch to the crab mode for battle.
- Go forward and to the right to blast through some exploding bugs. Then kill two more dongo and drop a level.
- You now have to blast through a bunch of spores. Be very careful. The tunnel too narrow to easily avoid the spore's attacks.
- At the end of the tunnel you can break through the rocks or take the path to the left to head out into a big hanger area.
- There are two red hangers. A big dongo will roll out of one. The other has a fresh driller. Kill the dongo and capture the data post at the little bridge.
- Just clear the path to the right and shoot the akrid web to open a path to the boss' room.
Spider Fight
- YouTube: Lost Planet: Extreme Condition Mission 09 Boss (Time: 4:23)
- This is just a big spider. It has all the cliches of a normal spider fight that every action game uses.
- It uses one of it's four legs to stomp. Just move out of the way when it raises the leg.
- It can shoot a web that restricts you to either the inside or the outside of the arena. Just deal with it until you can blow out a leg. This will make it retract the web.
- It can do some type of a spitting attack that locks you in place. I only saw this when I jumped up to the second level post, just limit your time on the posts to avoid this.
- Finally, it drops a whole bunch of exploding bugs. These make playing the level on foot nigh impossible. In a VS, they're a joke. Just jump around to dodge their explosions.
- I suggest that you ditch the driller for a VS that can hover. The vulcan cannon on the driller is also too much of a T-Eng hog.
- Note: Watch your T-Eng here and remember to stock up from the tanks inside if you're running low.
- There are two VS's here, so you shouldn't have too much trouble finishing the fight.
- Just dodge the legs and keep your distance. Jump and hover as much as possible to avoid the bugs on the floor.
- Try to stick to a Gatling and a shotgun. A rocket launcher works well too.
- Use the Gatling to blow out two of the legs. Shoot the little orange band at the top. It's just like a chryatis.
- It then falls. If you're using the shotgun, close range and jump to hover. Then just blast away at the head. You should be able to take off a third of its health.
- The rocket launcher is the same method. You should have time for two shots. Stop before it gets up though.
- Just rinse and repeat until it dies.
- Mission Accomplished.
