First | Previous | Next | End

8:30 - The Amateur Circuit, the first of five hoverbike races in Joba and the easiest one. Watch out for the walls that dictate where you will be going at the beginning, and be careful with the boosts, as it an be easy to crash on this course.

I restart here a few times just to get a really good run. 

Winning this course will net you the Charge Boots, but if you can win in 2:27.0 or less, you can get the "How Fast Was That?" Skill Point, which is barely get in this video.

Double-tap R1 with the Charge Boots equipped to quickly dash for as long as you hold R1. You don't exactly stop on a dime with these, so be careful.

17:21 - From here, I start replaying some battles I've already . Here, I start busting out the Synthenoids and some other guns to destroy to get some experience.

22:16 - The Arachnoid Battle. Here, I bust out the Megaturret Glove and the Synthenoids to cause some heavy damage and win this battle fairly quickly.

Also, the Seeker Gun becomes the HK22 gun. This shoots three homing missiles instead of one.

Skill Points:

How Fast Was That?: Finish a race on the hoverbike course on Joba in 2:27.0 or less. You can get it in Challenge 3, but it is possible to get it in Challenge 1 if you know what you're doing.
