PrinceWatercress plays Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando - Part 48 of 54

In this entry, we go back to some previous planets to get some upgrades, pick-ups and another Skill Point.

First | Previous | Next | End

2:40 - In order to re-spawn the Protopets near where you met Angela in Grelbin, you'll need to save and load (unless your last checkpoint is near those Protopets). Getting the Protopets to create all of their clones will give you the biggest trove of experience that you can get. This will come into play a little later when I need to reach maximum health.

10:48 - The Spiderbot will evolve into the Tankbot, which is much like the Spiderbot except that it has a turret that can fire at enemies with the Square button.

13:32 - You can use the Hypnomatic here to open up another area. Take out the yetis for experience, then go up the ladder for a Platinum Bolt to complete the item collection for this planet.

18:18 - You'll have to use the Hypnomatic at this pyramid on Damosel in order to blow up the robot and blow a hole in the wall to get a hidden Platinum Bolt.

23:02 - Using the Wrench to take out all the enemies on Joba will net you another Skill Point. You'll also unlock more stuff for Slim Cognito's Ship Shack.

Skill Points:

Wrench Ninja II: Massacre: Defeat all the enemies on Joba using only the wrench.
