Mission 8

Drop off the ledge ahead and follow the path to find a Health Drain Aura Holocron. Continue up a few steps and Force Push your way through the metal girders blocking the path. As for the soldiers, just toss them off the ledge to the left. Continue onward, using a double-jump to cross the broken bridge. Make sure to grab the Health Restored Holocron just ahead. Now cross over the girder, drop off the left ledge, then jump onto the walkway leading through the circular blue tunnel.

You'll soon emerge on a ledge overlooking a battlefield. Grab the Unlimited Energy Holocron to your left, then dive on in! Quickly use your infinite energy to take down as many Purge Troopers as you can (likely two). During the battle, an AT-ST and numerous enemies will emerge from an entrance to your right -- once your Power-Up runs dry, we suggest double-jumping up to a ledge behind you. From here, use the objects as cover, and grab whatever you can (people or things) and chuck it at the AT-ST's noggin to take him down from a distance. Afterward, an Invincibility Holocron will appear in the center of the arena; dash to it and use it to take down the remaining enemies.

With the room cleared, jump to the platforms on the left side and then leap from the last one up to a series of ledges (just above) that lead to a tunnel. Follow it and collect the Invincibility Holocron at the end, then quickly drop to the ground way below and use this time to tackle the Purge Bots. Once your power-up expires, there are several more lying around. Look for a Damage Increased on a ledge to the left, another power-up in the middle, and a couple more on the buildings ahead. But we strongly suggest saving the Invincibility Holocron on the building right of the hanger until later.

Objective: Fight Your Way to the Dropship Roof

Once the enemies are cleared out, the large hangar doors will open, revealing an AT-ST and a pair of Purge Troopers. If you listened to us before, you hopefully held off on grabbing the Invincibility Holocron atop the building to the right of the hanger -- well, now's the time to use it! Quickly grab it, then target the AT-ST. Now it's time to tackle those two pesky Purge Troopers. If you can, grab the Unlimited Energy Holocron from inside the hanger and use it to Force Lightning both at the same time. If that doesn't work, retreat and find an object for cover and wait for them to come at you. Once clear, ride the lift in the back of the hanger.

Hopefully you remembered to grab the invincibility Holocron on the building to the right.

Objective: Infiltrate The Imperial Ore Collection Factory

Continue forward killing the troopers (throw them off the sides for an easy win). Ride the lift in the back of the building ahead and continue through the door and a short hall.

Objective: Make Your Way to the Central Ring of the Facility

Once at the circular walkway, you'll find three force fields in the block, with the center one preventing you from continuing onward. To down the force fields, remove a generator using Force Grab behind both the left and right ones. You may also want to grab a Damage Increased Holocron from the alcove the right-field was covering. Once finished, ride the lift at the back of the central hall down a floor.

Alright, this walkway can be a bit tricky, as you're flanked by a sniper on both sides. Immediatly grab the Invincibility Holocron hovering above the central walkway, then grab the explosives off the walkways below and chuck them at said snipers for a quick victory. Once the room's cleared, use Force Grab to raise the locks on either side of the door (by the lower walkways). Once both are raised, the door will unlock, permitting you to continue.

Proceed around the circular walkway in either direction and ride the lift in the back to meet with the boss...a rather unexpected one at that.

Boss - Proxy That's right, your robot companion is about to try to take you down once and for all by imitating several bosses you've faced before, plus one new one: Darth Maul. Thankfully, none of them prove to be overly difficult. Simply get close and use Force Repulse to blast any one of his forms away, then run up and slash them while they're vulnerable. Repeat that simple pattern to win the battle.

Objective: Overload the Accelerator Towers to Destroy the Shipyard

Ha, and you thought the level was over! First, bust out of the hallway by using Force Push on either door. Now, it's up to you to overload the four towers (each stationed above a hallway like the one you just exited) by using Force Lightning. Simply jump onto the base of each tower and unleash some electricity to overload 'em.

Objective: Bring Down the Imperial Star Destroyer

Okay, we'll be straight up with you -- this part can be very, very annoying. In short, you have to reorientate the Star Destroyer using Force Grab so that it's facing you (flat relative to the ground), then lower it to the ground. However, a squadron of tie fighters will hinder your progress at both the very start, and throughout the entire procedure.

So here's the deal: You must destroy the Tie Fighters quickly in order to have enough time to reposition the Star Destroyer -- if you don't, another squadron of Ties will show up before you can make any progress. Now there's two main ways to tackle the Tie Fighters and you may want to try both to see what works best for you. The first method is to jump and Force Lightning them as they fly by (wait for the blue reticule to appear on them first). The second is to grab them with Force Grab and toss them -- if you're good, you can use the first Tie to destroy several others with a well-placed throw.

Once all the Ties are destroyed, immediately Force Grab the Star Destroyer then begin to reposition it so it's facing you, by moving the left stick in the desired direction. Once it stops (or is facing you), adjust the ship's tilt (with the right stick) so the body is flat relative to the ground. Once it's in the correct position, the on-screen indicator will instruct you to hold both sticks down -- this will begin the process of lowering the Star Destroyer to the ground (your controller will shake to indicate you're doing it correctly).

Unfortunately, you'll have to let go once the next Tie squadron gets close, otherwise they'll blow you to pieces. But don't fret! Although you will have to reposition the Star Destroyer, the distance you've lowered it will remain! So just be quick with taking down the Ties, and continue to re-position and lower the Star Destroyer until it touches ground -- this may take a while.
