- We sold all our treasure before starting the level. We also increased the pistol, machine gun and shotgun's capacity and reload speed, and the shotgun's critical percentage and firepower. We also boosted the firepower and reload speed on Sheva's S75 rifle.
- The level begins on a boat. Use your machine gun or pistol to fend off the Majini following behind, starting with the ones on the right. If you hit the one carrying dynamite as he's throwing, he'll light the others on fire.
- Don't burn all your ammo trying to kill them. Just keep them at bay until you start passing under the bridges.
- Look for exploding red barrels to shoot as you're moving through the next section. There are some on each of the next two bridges, and a ledge to your right as you're moving between them.
- The third bridge is the most important. Shoot as many barrels as you can as you pass under.
- Get off the boat on your right side and hang back in the corner, facing the bridge you just passed. Use your shotgun to kill the flying creatures and nearby Majini first, then use the pistol to shoot any barrels you missed.
- BSAA EMBLEM: As you walk up the ramp, stop at the corner just before the last part of the ramp that goes towards the center of this area. Look back towards the underside of the bridge, over the bottom crossbeam, and you'll see the emblem attached to the ceiling. Shoot it with your pistol or borrow Sheva's rifle.
- Jump across to the other platform and head down the path. Flip the switch near the gate at the end, and don't miss the ammo barrel to your right.
- A few more enemies will arrive. Shoot the flying creatures first with your shotgun, then take care of the rest with any weapon. You might want to switch to one that has lots of ammo.
- Kill the Majini with dynamite on the bridge, or just make a dash for the boat.
- Once everyone's on board, Josh will keep driving.
- Use your pistol to shoot more barrels as you move through.
- Before long, you'll have to duck under two low pipes. Press X to do this.
- After a brief ride, you'll reach another gate. Get out and shoot any barrels you missed.
- Head to your left and stay behind the wooden wall. Two Majini will start attacking from mounted machine guns. You'll need to grab Sheva's rifle to defeat them.
- Start by standing near the right wall and pressing X to hide behind it. When the enemies stop firing, aim at the one on the right and shoot him in the head.
- Now, go to the left wall and press X to hide behind it. Shoot the enemy on the other turret when he stops firing.
- Give Sheva her gun back, then start heading in the direction of the turrets.
- There are a few more Majini to take out here. Use your shotgun on the ones that sprout growths, and the pistol on the rest.
- There's lots to get in this area before opening the gate. Jump across the gap to the other side of the area, then climb the ladder to the top platform. Grab items around here, then head into the small room in the middle.
- TREASURE: In this room, open the drawer in the corner to reveal the Emerald (Marquise).
- Exit the other side of the room, get the Herb on the ground and jump down to the lower platform.
- Also, be sure to check the lower platforms on the northeast side of this area. Once you've collected everything, go to the control panel by the gate and have Sheva pull the lever.
- Jump across the platform to the other lever, and pull it.
- A few more enemies will appear. Shoot the flying creatures with your shotgun, and use the pistol on the rest. Return to the boat and you'll see a cutscene.

- Irving has turned himself into a giant sea creature and is attacking the boat. Get on the turret to your right by holding LT.
- When the giant tentacles rise from the water, start shooting them, but be ready to dodge with A when prompted on the screen.
- After you dodge, you'll have to get back on the turret. Keep firing at the tentacles.
- Once you've destroyed one of them, the creature will appear above the water. Aim for the small sac on its back.
- The creature will now appear at the rear of the ship. Stand near here, and dodge its tentacle attacks by pressing X when prompted. Then, shoot the tentacle with your shotgun.
- If you get caught in his tentacles, wiggle the left thumbstick. If Sheva gets caught, shoot the tentacle to save her.
- Now, Irving appears on the left side of the ship. Order Sheva to get on the rear turret, then take the one on the right.
- Keep shooting tentacles, as you did before. Then, hit the boss in the back.
- The order in which things happen can vary here, but these are the three main scenarios you have to deal with while initially fighting the boss.
- After dealing enough damage, Irving will attach its tentacles to the rear of the ship. Order Sheva to get on the right rear turret. Take the one on the left.
- Shoot Irving as he appears in the mouth. When he sinks into the water, be ready to press X to dodge. One chomp can be fatal.
- Irving may also sprout tentacles. Keep shooting the mouth and dodge with A when prompted.
- Keep hitting Irving, and eventually he'll be defeated, ending Mission 3.
