PrinceWatercress plays Ratchet and Clank - Part 33 of 38


In this entry, we finish up our business in Kalebo III before heading back to Quartu.


This time around, I take the path to the right once I'm able to go indoors. 

Taking out the robots that come out of the walls is simple if you have the Glove of Doom and plenty of ammo for it. The robots will have different attacks in each of these sections you fight them in, but if you keep your distance and keep your Glove of Doom ammo topped up, this isn't too bad.

Along the way, you'll also be using the Slingshot to get around, and you can go to lower areas to beat down some enemies and use the Metal Detector to snag some free Bolts. You'll also need to shoot some targets to power down some electric barriers and get through some doorways.

Near the end of this path, you'll finally be able to shoot down the ship that spawns the bounty hunters once and for all with the Visibomb Gun.

At the end, you'll find an agent who is looking for a new star, and if you can beat his test-bots in a race, he will award you with a Hologuise, allowing you to enter the factory in Quartu. For this race, you'll definitely need the Zoomerator to convert stunts into turbo, and you'll need to practice this course to get know it better and win a little more easily.

The yellow walls can be moved on, provided you stay on the bottom of them. Also, the three arches near the end open up a shortcut near the finish line that can help you get the jump on the test-bots if you're nearing first place. Doing this race very well will allow you to win the Hologuise...and also learn that Clank is far more eloquent than Ratchet at a moment's notice.

If you score 4500 points or more in the hoverboard race on this planet, you'll get a Skill Point. I do this in the next video. Speaking of Skill Points, the rest of this video is spent getting the Skill Point for completing the rail grind to Gadgetron Inc. without getting hit.
