In this entry, we take on a giant dragon robot with three heads before shutting the Black Knight's operations down.
Mechanical Menace
You'll need to play as Sir Galleth to get this job started.
When you get to the job marker, you'll find out that a mechanical beast has been terrorizing the village from a nearby cave. When you get over there, be ready to attack the tiny mechanical dragon-like enemies with wings that come at you, as they will spit fire at you and be a general nuisance. When you get to the cave entrance, Carmelita Fox will be following close behind in case Galleth gets himself in trouble again.
Once you're inside the cave, you'll have to climb a large mechanical tower with the help of the Catapult Crash. If you see any of the winged mechanical enemies, get rid of them. As for the tower, you'll need to climb your way up. Along the way, you'll also have to time your Catapult Crashes and upward jumps so you can easily get from one hook to another and you'll also have to deal with fire and flaming parts as well as the creatures from before. You'll also have to run on treadmills to bring hooks downward.
At the top, you'll find a robot dragon. Get up the column to the right, spire jump across the dragon's horns and get to the machine on the other side. Sir Galleth will pull the plug, but it only makes the mechanical dragon mad and catch him in one of its mouth. Carmelita shows up in time to see this happen and fights the dragon.
Use Square to knock out the smaller enemies with a pistol whip. As for the dragon itself, you'll need to aim at the heads and shoot at them. When one of the heads goes down, approach it so that you get a cutscene where you have to mash the R1 button to shoot one of the eyes out. You'll need to do this with all three heads. Watch out for the lasers that travel across the ground as well as the fire that the dragon spits. When the wings blow everything back, move forward to keep from being blown off the tower.
After taking out all three heads, you'll have to do it again to completely blind the dragon's heads. This time, you'll also have to deal with more fireballs at the same time and shoot down any homing missiles that the dragon shoots at you. As you go further and further into this battle, you'll have to deal with more and more attacks simultaneously. Once you take out the three heads again, you'll save Sir Galleth and complete the job.
There is a trophy/achievement for getting to the top of the tower fast enough, but that gets saved for another video.
Short Supply
You'll have to play as Murray to get this job started.
I don't show off any of Carmelita's shots until later, but you can choose between them with the L2 button much like with Sly's costumes, Bentley's ammo and Murray's punches.
When you start this job, Murray will have to head to the tavern - which is now a fuel production facility - to tear the place up. Sly will have to head to the shoemaker's to shut down the machines producing the giant robot parts. Sir Galleth will have to get into the bakery to shut down the generator for all of the facilities.
You'll start Murray's part first. Head to the tavern and enter the front door. Here, you'll need to stomp enemies to pick them up, then throw them into the vats to destroy them. Since the mouse enemies will sometimes show up here, you may have to shake them up for treasures for the "Hassan Would Be Proud" trophy.
Once you destroy the three vats with Murray, you'll play Sly's part of the job. Get to the shoemaker's and go inside, then equip the Archer's Costume, shoot an arrow at the target when the laser is out of the way and get to the top of the machine before the laser cuts the rope. The next arrow shot - which is just as hard because the same laser can also cut the rope - leads to a terminal that leads to a game of Spark Runner. When you get through Spark Runner, you'll shut down the machinery in the shoemaker's and switch to Sir Galleth's part of the job.
As Sir Galleth, enter the bakery. Knock the fire out of your way, then find the hook and Catapult Crash to the second floor. From there, you'll need to shut down the three sub-generators to turn off the main generator before time runs out and everything resets. Find a hook, use Catapult Crash to smash the pipes, then run to another hook and do the same thing while avoiding the lasers. Once you take out all the pipes, you'll shut down the generator. Get back down the hatch to the first floor before time runs out to complete the job.
