Well, whaddya know? We do all this...for nothing. Not surprisingly, Ratchet becomes a jerk centered on revenge and Clank isn't sure where to go next while having to deal with an angry Ratchet.
If you can do flips and somersaults in front of the woman at the raceway plaza in Rilgar, her chest will expand. Also, down + X while crouching allows you to perform a backflip.
Qwark's HQ - Umbris
When you land in Umbris, Qwark leves you to fend for yourself.
Be ready to glide after the second Versa-Target at the start.
Use the Blaster to destroy the bomb-shooting turrets. For the machine gun turrets, you'll need to hit them with anything you have, then quickly get away before they pop back up, as they are indestructible.
To destroy the line of mines that flies around, use the Pyrocitor.
When you make it to the base, you'll start seeing green-and-white panels on the ground. These always come in threes, and you'll need to step on them quickly to open up a door. If you take too long, they will stop flashing and you'll have to start over. The first set of three are really easy as they are all next to each other, but subsequent sets will have you running around and avoiding machine gun fire along the way.
The light brown panels on bridges will fall when you put your weight on them, so advance quickly.
11:52 - If you go in this direction, you'll get a Gold Bolt.
Near the end, you'll need the Hydrodisplacer. This will make the fish in the pools easier to deal with, as they will annihilate you if they're in the water and not on dry land.
15:43 - Dropping down behind this wall takes you to the other Gold Bolt on the planet.
When you reach the end, Captain Qwark turns on both a skeptical clank and an unknowingly gullible Clank. He then sics a giant, green ogre-lick creature on you and reveals that he is the official spokesperson for Drek's new planet. Also, if you haven't figured it out at this point, the shadowy figure seen behind Drek before Ratchet and Clank crash-landed on Novalis was Captain Qwark.
Jump over the rings fo fire that the boss create when it stomps, then run away from the trail of fire left by the eye lasers. You'll want to keep your distance as you fire on the boss. Eventually, the boss will be enveloped inside of a shield when you deal enough damage. When this happens, you'll need to lead the boss to one of the three bridges between the platforms. When the boss walks on a bridge, it will sink, breaking the shield until you do enough damage again. Unfortunately, the bridge that falls apart will no longer be available to you - save for one portion in the middle that sinks when you stand on it - so you'll need to avoid the lava if you want to survive, even if that means running past the boss in order to do it.
There is an attack that the boss can do. It will produce a tornado breath that will knock all of your ammunition away from you if it connects, and it can be a big inconvenience. You'll be left looking for all your ammo while avoiding the boss' attacks before you can get back to fighting again.
You'll be doing most of your damage with the Blaster, but if you run out of ammunition for that, use the Glove of Doom.
Once you beat the boss, you'll be able to get an Infobot from a commando under attack on the planet Eudora. While Clank is eager to help him, Ratchet - now completely feeling burned by Clank and his previously unquestioning trust towards Qwark and focused solely on getting revenge on Qwark himself - is not even interested. Unfortunately, he cannot go anywhere without Clank's robot ignition system abilities, so the partnership between Ratchet and Clank becomes tepid at best and Ratchet is more or less a reluctant party to what is going on and would rather go after Qwark. Also, Ratchet becomes a jerk. Meanwhile, Drek chews Qwark out for failing to kill Ratchet and Clank.
Fort Krontos - Eudora
When you land in Eudora, the commando will tell Ratchet and Clank to meet him at the city entrance.
If you head to the Gadgetron Vendor, you'll be able to buy the Devastator, which is a powerful rocket launcher. You'll need this for big opponents, and ammo for this does not come cheaply, so get it from the Gadgetron crates when you can. Thankfully, rockets can lock on to enemies if you aim it at them in first-person mode.
