LP-5-06 Walkthrough: Mission 06 - Green Eye Returns
===============================================================================
This mission is pretty easy mainly for the fact that you get the awesome Plasma
Rifle. It uses T-ENG to fire, quite strong, and very efficient. At the start,
grab the data post and then get the first mark the ‘H’ mark. There is a small
rock and lamp post to the east of the data post at the start, it is right
behind that. Once you have those head down and kill a few of the guys and you
should be able to get the Plasma Rifle. Once you have it, take your time on
killing people, snipe them from a distance and use it to kill the VS ahead.
Once all is clear, grab the data post and head forward and grab the second data
post, now snipe the turret up ahead, once that is cleared, head down to the
street, snipe anyone you see and the 2nd turret to your left. Once clear, head
to where the 2nd turret was, the ‘U’ mark will be in the corner once you can
jump up to this ledge.

Continue down and there will be a small nook past the bridge leg on your right,
it contains the ‘T’ mark, grab it and continue forward and clear the Nevec guys
and the VS that comes out, before entering the building at the very top
building directly to the east next to the door entrance will be the ‘N’ mark,
grab it and head in. Clear the Nevec guys in here and grab the ‘D’ mark in the
fire, now head forward and out towards the VS. After the cut scene head
forward, before the end of this first hallway on the upper right hand side will
be the ‘E’ mark grab it and continue on. In the room before the Gatling Gun and
Rocket Launcher ammo there is the ‘R’ mark at the top of the wall, grab it,
grab the ammo, head forward and be ready to meet Green Eye again.

Green Eye can be a pain, its like before though, aim for the green bubble
things, take the 4 out on each side and 4 more will appear on the front of
Green Eye’s head., take those four out and a big one will appear there, pound
it from there and you are set. The easiest way to take out Green Eye is to use
the Gatling Gun and the Rocket Launcher, I would reserve the rockets for the
front 4 and last one since they do the job the easiest then. To avoid his
attacks and maneuver around Green Eye press Y to activate your thrusters to
make you quicker.
===============================================================================
LP-5-07 Walkthrough: Mission 07 - Caravan Ambush
===============================================================================
At the start, hit the data station and then head to your right to get a Rocket
Launcher, pick off the Nevec guys and the smaller of the VS’s, clear the area
and then proceed onwards, there are storage like things around the area. There
is one standing alone by a truck, this has the first mark on it, grab the ‘T’
mark and head onwards, clear your way up here, but before entering the
location, go on the ledge to your right and get the ‘O’ mark. Once you have
that and any ammo/guns you want, head into the base.

After the cut scene, get the data post first, then just behind it to the south
side of the post is the ‘N’ mark, grab it and any ammo you need and then head
to the VS to the west. Once you have the VS head northeast from your current
location. I pretty much skipped this area because the fights here are just a
hassle and can be skipped over. Once you get to the area with the stairs and
small complex, grab the data post and get the ‘R’ mark from above the door,
then head to the door.

Once inside kill the Nevec guard and go to your right, on the ledge next to you
the ‘O’ mark will be visible, grab it and head down the stairs, as a note, if
you see a Plasma Gun grab it, it makes this part a lot easier. Once you have
gotten to the bottom, start clearing the Probes. They only open their shields
for a few seconds, but if you have the Plasma Gun you can snipe them before the
come attack you, once you’ve cleared it all, drop to the lowest level and
proceed on to where the probes were. There will be a small ditch to your right
which contains the ‘D’ mark, grab it and continue forward. Clear any remaining
guys get the ‘A’ mark which is above the large facility door. Once you have
that go into the left door, grab the data post, some T-ENG and get into the VS
and get ready for the boss fight.

This boss can be a hassle, the first time I fought him, somehow, my VS died in
mere seconds and I barely got him down to 75%. I did have Disc Grenades and the
Plasma Rifle, slowly but surely I did kill him. The second time I went through
I had my VS and survived, I used my Rocket Launcher up as quick as possible
then got the Shotgun and blasted him up close, which does a ton of damage, a
good idea would be to grab 2 Shotguns, get in his face and blast away.

LP-5-08 Walkthrough: Mission 08 - Volcano Dome Facility
===============================================================================
At the start, take care of the Trilid and their hives, then head towards the
container object ahead, anchor on top of it and you will be able to view a
Scorpion Akrid. The easiest way I find to take them out is to lob a grenade
towards them and shoot their belly when they are on their back. Once it is
dead, anchor above you to grab the data post, some ammo and the ‘V’ mark. The
‘V’ mark is on a beam just ahead of the data post, grab it, drop back down and
continue forward. Face another Scorpion and then anchor to the top level of the
next complex, you will face another Scorpion here. Once it is dead head to the
lower level, here you will meet the advanced Walking Akrid, now capable of
shooting projectiles, make easy work of them and continue forward.

Clear out all the Akrid in this room and grab any T-Eng and ammo you need, but
before dropping down to the VS grab the ‘O’ mark which is sitting on one of the
beams, once you have it, grab the VS and head outwards. Kill the two Wasps,
grab the data post and head towards the door at the bottom for the next area.
In here head forward and kill all the Akrid in the next room, once fully clear,
destroy the two T-ENG tanks to the right of the exit of the room and get the
‘L’ mark in the corner, once you have that head out, head to the southeast to
the other GAB VS, kill any enemies around the are and grab any ammo, data
posts, or T-ENG you need. Once you have it all, head to the top of the
freeway via the onramp to the south. Once you get to the top, look to the left
divider, on top of it will be the ‘C’ mark. Grab it, clear any more Akrid that
come and head to the door to the southeast.

After the cut scene, kill the probes and get into the VS and head forward, kill
the two VS’s that come out and then keep heading forward, clear the Nevec
soldiers and the VS. Once you have cleared all that you can clear some of the
VS’s that are below you, once ready, head down below. If you want you can head
to the northwest and blow open the storage unit to get a better VS with a
Homing Laser and EM Laser. Once you are ready, head to the southeast to the
bridge. On one of the containers blocking the path will be the ‘A’ mark, grab
it and jump up and hover forward. Continue into the facility, kill the VS and
grab the data post, before dropping down turn to your right and get the ‘N’
mark in the corner and then drop down.

Once at the top, continue forward and kill any VS’s you come across, keep going
forward and grab the data post and finish off any more VS’s. Once you get to
the part with the big fans look to your left, on a part of the steel frame will
be the last mark, grab the ‘O’ mark and then if you can snipe the 3 VS’s below
and head down for the boss.

This boss can be easy or hard, I found him easy but a lot of others found him
quite hard. What I did is get the advanced VS (like the one you used for Green
Eye) and get two EM Lasers, just fully charge them, blast him when he is in his
VS mode and not tank mode. Aim for the center area for maximum damage, a few
hits should do well, to avoid his attacks just hover and use Y to move quickly.
Shouldn’t be too hard as long as you stay out of his fire and pound him full of
ammo.

LP-5-09 Walkthrough: Mission 09 - Thermal Energy Deposit
===============================================================================
At the beginning, head forward and take care of any Nevec soldiers, grab the
data post and if you find one, grab a Plasma Gun. If you got a Plasma Gun, this
next part will be a piece of cake. Stay on top of the freeway and snipe all the
VS’s and Nevec soldiers you can see, also kill off the turrets directly across
from you and since most can’t attack you, you will kill them all off and clear
most, if not all, the lower area. Once you have killed everything, drop down
and grab a VS, there will be one in one of the storage units, grab it and also
grab the ‘R’ mark which is inside the unit in one of the corners. Now head to
the north towards the lava. Once you get up to the lava, approach and look for
a crate, on the corner of the crate will be the ‘A’ mark. Grab it, jump across
and continue on.

Continue forward, grab the data post and enter the building. Kill the VS and
the Akrid in here and continue to the next room, clear it and drop into the
ditch in the middle, you will have to exit your VS to go down the hall.
Once you get to the end, the next room is littered with Akrid. Kill all the
exploding ones first, grab the data post and drop to the bottom. Before getting
into the VS and advance, grab the ‘I’ mark. It is in the northwest corner on
the crate. Grab it, get in the VS and continue on. Drill through the first set
of rubble and clear the Akrid, now go to the left, once you clear the tentacles
you can grab the ‘N’ mark, it will be on the ledge where there are some guns
and it ends.

Drop off the ledge and continue to your left, fight the Dongo and Akrid here
and then continue on, dropping lower and lower, eventually you will come down
and there will be a VS and a Gatling Gun, in the corner here there will be the
‘B’ mark, grab it and head down the hallway killing all the Tentacle Akrid. At
the end you will see some rubble at the end and a small gap to your left, go
into the gap and jump up. Clear the Akrid and grab ‘O’ mark which is right
behind the light on the right side of the door. Knock down the door and head
in, clear the Akrid and head upwards and get the better style VS out of the
storage unit. Grab some weapons and head into the next room. Kill the Dongo and
the Akrid around here, grab the data post and get the ‘W’ mark, right behind
one of the pillars holding up the small walkway with the data post on it. Once
you are all ready, head through the door where the small Akrid came from and
prepare for the boss.

In here there are tons of ammo and weapons, I suggest using a Gatling Gun and
Rocket Launcher. The key to this boss is it’s limbs. What I did was weaken one
(you can tell it is weaker when it turns dark red compared to orange) and then
shoot one off and then shoot the other limb off. Once this is done, it will
flop onto it’s back and flail around, at this point you can hover above it to
see its weak spot and pound it with rockets and bullets, if you time it all
right you can get 2-3 rockets and a ton of bullets at it, rinse and repeat this
and you will have the boss dead in a few turns. Also, the webbing it spits out
can be destroyed by shooting at it and the little Akrid it spits out, don’t
worry about them. Don’t worry if you lose your VS, there are another 2-3 down
here and you can just grab one and pound at it with that one.
===============================================================================
LP-5-10 Walkthrough: Mission 10 - Showdown Below
===============================================================================
At the start, grab the VS and the ammo up here then kill off all the Akrid
below as well as the Nevec turrets. Then jump down and look at the rubble on
your left. The ‘B’ mark will be down here. Grab it and the data post as well as
any ammo you need and head to the south. Kill off any Scorpion’s that attack
you and then jump up the mountain side. Once you reach the top a few Wasps
should attack you, kill them and drop down into the hole. Continue forward and
blow up the T-ENG container, behind it is the ‘L’ mark and a VS Rocket
Launcher. Grab them and continue down the hall, in here there will be a bunch
of Wasps and a Chryatis. Kill them all, then there will be a small building to
the northwest of where you entered from, you will need to go in there in order
to proceed, but before doing so, grab the ‘I’ mark, it is behind a light on the
floor by the building I just talked about. Once you have it, head into that
building.

Drop down here and kill all the flying Akrid as you see them, once you get out,
before advancing, there will be the ‘Z’ mark to your left behind one of the
lights, grab it and head forward to the data post, grab it jump up and then
down and fight the first boss. This boss isn’t too hard, you first have to take
out the feelers, I still had a Plasma Gun so I did this on foot, a few shots to
the claw end and it pops, then you follow it into the tunnel, blast the little
limb part in here and then run out when the claw starts coming out. Repeat once
more and that feeler is gone, then do the same to the other side. Once you do
this it is cake, the boss will spit out missiles at you exposing the middle,
get into the VS and launch a rocket at it to do a lot of damage, do this a few
times and it will be dead. Head forward to the door it was blocking and watch
the cut scene.

Once the cut scene is over, head forward and grab the data post and any ammo as
well as the second ‘Z’ mark, which is on a crate above the data post. Head into
the next room and clear it all, there’s a bunch of ammo, a couple VS’s and data
posts, grab what you need and then head upwards and to the north. Once you head
in to the large VS hanger get the ‘A’ mark, it will be on a platform to your
immediate right in plain site. Grab it and drop down and then head to get the
‘D’ mark, it is in the middle by all the GAB VS’s on the south end. Then go
grab the ‘R’ mark which is on the crates on the right hand side on the end of
them on a corner. Once you have that, grab any ammo and head toward the south
and drop down to face the boss.

Quite easy, though I guess he could be annoying. What I had were two EM Lasers,
easy to work with plus they stun him when you hit, just get semi close, charge
them up, release, rinse and repeat, eventually he will die. Onto the last
mission, aren’t you excited!
===============================================================================
LP-5-11 Walkthrough: Mission 11 - Final Battle
===============================================================================
Here it is, the final mission, what you’ve been playing for. You get to pilot
the best VS in the game, and when I say best, I really do mean it kicks some
major butt. First start to descend, take out the probes as you can and any VS’s
you come by. Once all clear, head to the very bottom and get the ‘S’ mark. Now
start to slowly ascend, the ‘T’ mark is just under the first platform, grab it
and start to ascend again, the ‘A’ mark is just above the arc of the first
platform. Now ascend some more and before going through the ring get the ‘R’
mark, it’s on a small platform before you ascend through the ring. Ascend up
and kill all the probes and VS’s, then get the ‘D’ mark which is on the floor
above the first ring.

Once you have that, ascend up and get the ‘U’ and ‘S’ marks, they are just
below the second ring on one of the platforms (one is on the lower part of the
platform, the second above it.) Now ascend up and get the ‘T’ mark, just above
the second ring on the floor. Once you have that, go all the way up and out
and face the final boss.

The final boss, he can be annoying, but easy. Just hold down RT or LT and let
them go when you have a good shot at him. He moves quite a bit, but not too
hard. Just get close, let go of the button and you will hit him with you EMF
blade and do a nice amount of damage, repeat a few times, try to kill him off
asap. He summons 2 laser cannons to his aide, when there is just one, it’s easy
to manage, but two can be annoying and they do a decent amount of damage. Once
you finally get the hang of his timing you will get him easily, once dead enjoy
the ending.
===============================================================================
Lp-6 Vital Suits
===============================================================================
Vital Suits are mechanized vehicles for the humans which aide them in fighting
the Akrid. They are a great help in the game because they can take a decent
amount of damage before being destroyed, their weaponry gives you a major
advantage and there are a few which have their own awesome capabilities
and on top of that the weapons are customizable on them and you can take
off the weapons and use them without the VS, which is also nice.
