MISSION :: CAPTURE CRIME LORD
WEAPONS :: PRIMARY : Disruptor Rifle
SECONDARY : Imperial Heavy Repeater
EXPLOSIVE : Thermal Detonators
N.B This walkthrough has been written without including the details needed for executing force powers and attacks.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the quick intro movie, turn away from the recently blown-up bridge and take out your lightsaber. (The gap in the bridge is too far to jump). Run over to the rear of your ship, to where some barrels and crates are. You will see a walkway attached to the side of a building - take a run up and jump over to it. Run around about a quarter of the way to where some cargo is. Proceed round to where two men are (alien-thingys), stab them and return to behind the crates. SAVE . Two more men will arrive armed with "anti-jedi weapons", do a few rolls avoiding their concussive fire and kill them taking care not to fall off the ledge. Continue round the bend to where a man is hovering in a docked ship, take out your Disruptor Rifle and send him flyin'. Run all the way round the path and another man should arrive ahead. He is heavily armored so make the best use of your lightsaber. SAVE .
Then leap into the hover ship and take a second leap to another area where two wookies will start shooting you. Run up to the first one and saber him, proceed up the left set of stairs and kill the remaining one. Run back the way you came and continue along the second set of stairs, on your right. Take out a Thermal Detonator and charge up on secondary fire (Left trigger) so it will explode instantly upon contact. Throw it at the group of men, taking care not to be seen. To your left you should see another area, jump across to it. Two Wookies will run at you, firing with Heavy Repeaters - dodge the fire as best as you can. Continue along the walkway and kill the remaining three men, with attacks from your lightsaber. A man will begin to throw Thermal Detonators at you. Retreat to nearest cover, delivering several shots to his torso with your Heavy Repeater. If you cannot get a clear shot, use the secondary function, the energy based grenade - this should kill him instantly if fired well. SAVE .
Once he is dead, his belt of grenades will fall down from the ledge - collect them. Jump up into the area above you. Run behind the crate on the right and pick up the large shield booster, jump back onto the crate and leap up onto the ledge above you. Jump back down and cautiously approach the crate on the far right. Behind it will be an assassin droid, with a faint blue sphere around it. Take out your lightsaber and quickly attack it with a slash, jumping away before the shield regenerates. HINT – if you are caught next to the droid when it activates its shield it will cause severe damage – possibly death. Continue these attacks until the droid is destroyed, sometimes a useful move is to throw your lightsaber at its lower chest area. SAVE .
Jump down into the area below you, and run at the men shooting at you, doing your best to avoid their fire – jumping then rolling in frequent successions. Once you reach them kill them with a short series of attacks from your lightsaber. Proceed round the corner, using the same tactic, and kill off the remaining men. Enter the lift, which will carry you upwards. When the lift stops a Wookie sentry will begin shooting at you. Kill him quickly. Approach the bridge and, staying in the air for as long as possible (jump loads of times), kill the Wookies. Another assassin droid and several Wookies will be guarding the end of the bridge. Retreat to behind a crate and pull out your Imperial Heavy Repeater. Launch several grenades at the guards, trying to inflict as much damage to the Wookies as possible. Charge up a Thermal Detonator (this time using the right trigger), so it will explode after 3-4 seconds, aiming just in front of the droid. As soon as you do that take out your saber and run at the droid. If your grenade was aimed accurately the grenade should explode next to the assassin droid, inflicting damage on it – therefore causing it to deactivate its shield. Use your chance and attack it much in the same way as you did the last one. There will be some health, if you so need it, on a crate to the right of the bridge. SAVE .
Run to the end of the bridge and jump down onto another platform. Hide behind the crate, take out your Disruptor Rifle, crouch over to the left and deliver a single shot to the head of the nearest guard. He may well be out of your line of fire, so still crouching, trying to get a clear shot. You may also find that a charged up shot will prove more efficient in killing him, if it is aimed at the torso. Take out your lightsaber and clear the remaining shields, kill the guard at the end with a quick attack kata. Or go round the back of the guard and do a rolling stab. This attack is impossible to dodge from the rear. Go round to the left and proceed to the rear of the crates, where there will be some ammo and a shield generator, use these if appropriate to your status. Run back and proceed to the right. There will be about eight guards, grouped into twos – hiding behind some obstacles. After killing them – run and jump over the wall, where another assassin droid will be stationed. Get a height advantage as soon as you can, using the near crates. Attack the droid with a series of slashs and lightsaber throws, whilst the druids shield is deactivated, remembering to keep your distance from it whilst recovering from an attack. Continue along the platform and jump onto the next one. Carry on running and leap onto a small strip attached to a wall. Continue down that and jump down to face the door. Turn round and you’ll see where you started off! Run past the door and there will be a checkpoint save. Two Siths will approach you … one will have a lightsaber, the other won’t. Kill the one with as series of attacks from your saber. An effective move is to hold down alternate and primary attack (left and right trigger) to unleash a frenzy of deadly swings, which cause you no damage, but to effect destroys anyone close. Be aware, however, that the Sith without the light saber isn’t harmless as he is capable of using many Dark Side forces. He may well use force grip on you, which leaves you defenseless to lightsaber attacks (if the saber-wielding Sith isn’t killed first). As soon as you recover he will still be replenishing his force powers, so seizing your chance, finish him off quickly at close range. You may find that using weapons against this non-saber wielding Sith is easier – just do whatever you find most comfortable. Once he is dead, SAVE the game.
Continue down the corridor, turn left and enter Racto’s office. A short film will follow. About 4 or 5 assassin droids will appear, which you will have to destroy to win. All the droids from my experience, are weak below the chest and just above the legs. The first step is to lure them out of the alcove in which they are stationed, as they are extremely powerful in a group. Run behind Lanik’s shield wall and wait for one to come and find you. Stay away from it as it can cause you some major damage if your too close. As soon as it deactivates its blue defense shield, throw your saber at its waist line, this should destroy it no probs. Repeat this for all the remaining droids, and try to simultaneously jump and roll, jump and roll … this will let you cover more distance while making it harder for the droids to hit you. Once they are all destroyed a short film will follow.

MISSION :: CULT SIGHTING
WEAPONS :: PRIMARY : Disruptor Rifle
SECONDARY : Golan Arms FC - 1
EXPLOSIVE : Thermal Detonators
N.B This walkthrough has been written including the details needed for executing force powers and attacks. Also this mission is full of ledges and long drops, I will not tell you how to stay on the ledge, only how to get to the next one.
The mission begins when you fall down a hole. To get out do force push on the boulder in front of you, if you are not sure where I mean then do force sense and push on the left of where the symbol is. This should kill a Sith standing in front of the boulder. Run out of the new opening and stand against a wall. Another Sith should drop down to you, kill him with either a kata from your lightsaber or an easier method is to do Force Grip and release the hold over the side of the ledge so he drops down. Go to the right and jump off the ledge onto the big bridge (save health by dropping onto each individual ledge and when the gap is less jump on) There will be two guards talking – listen for a while and one should say “The master told us to patrol this area, lets go” Once they start to patrol and when they have their back to you quickly drop onto the bridge and kill the weak guards with a few slashes from your saber. SAVE . Carry on going forward towards the bright blue shining lights in the ground. Then go down the slope, 2 Siths should be there. Kill them with a “Spinning Kata” or Force Lightning, if you have it. While attacking them do Force Protect – this Force decreases all incoming damage. Once they are dead jump onto the ledge (which should be obvious to spot) and have your saber ready. Some Siths may jump up, as they do, do either Force Push or Grip to send them off the ledge. Then you will see a bit of ledge crumbling away. Jump onto the firm bit and walk forward to the edge of the ledge. Some of the ledge should fall away, so be careful. SAVE .Then go onto the other ledge which should be parallel to the ledge you are on. People will start to fire and shoot at you. A Sith should jump up to you. Do Force Speed and really slice him up. Quickly (avoiding the shots and still using Force Speed) jump up to the guards shooting you and kill ‘em. There will still be guards shooting you – take them out with a Disruptor Rifle. A few shots to the head will be sufficient. Then, jump onto the long bridge that the people you just killed where on.
You will not be able to go up the slope on the left because it is blocked by some rocks. Below you is another big ledge, but it’s quite far down. To save health, go down the slope on the other side of the platform you are on. SAVE . As you progress down the slope you will hear a Detonation Pack go off. Ahead you will see a large fuzzy red area in the middle of a bridge. DO NOT GO ACROSS THE RED AREA. This is because if you run across someone will blow it up and you will fall down and die. What you do is activate Force Speed and jump over the red area. You may have to do this quite a few times as it is quite a hard action to complete. Once across - kill the person who let the Detonation Packs go off, if he hasn’t blown himself up all ready. P.S Try to make his death painful. SAVE .
Go ahead up the steps and into a passage. There will be 3 Siths there. Kill them with Force Speed or lure them out into the open and push them off the ledge. Go back into the passage way to the end. Uh Oh! Dead End!? No – Do Force Sense and you will see another symbol. Do Force Push where it is, and it should open a door. Go down the steps and kill the Sith there with a few katas delivered by your lightsaber. Continue going down the steps to a platform with a blue light on. A Sith should attack you – kill him. Look below you, on your left of where you arrived on the stone, and jump onto the ledge beneath you. Kill all the opponents then Jaiden Corr will say “How am I going to get over there” To get over to the other side, jump onto the ledge below you. Kill the 2 Siths below you with Force Grip or a few slashes with your saber and go up the slope. Then drop down again and kill the other 2 Siths. Then go to the end of the stone bridge, around the corner and kill the other Siths. Loads of Siths in this game! Then to get down to the other side drop down to what looks like 2 stone doors. They lead nowhere so jump acoss to the other side parallel to you. SAVE . Then jump below onto the other ledge. Be careful not to fall down. Hopefully by now you will be on a bridge that is full of lights. Go to the end and follow the path round the rock. Go onto the rock ledge below you and then onto the other bridge parallel to this!
Kill the 2 Siths on that, avoiding the shooting from the man above. Progress along the bridge with the blue lights, continue.
From here you will see where to go as it gets easier – I have explained all the hard bits. You should come to a temple with about 5 Siths in. The best way to kill them is by using Force Speed to out maneuver them. At the back of the Temple there will be a large blue crystal. On the sides of this crystal there are some gaps in the wall. If you face them you will see a blue swirl, do Force Push. The Temple should now collapse, quickly run out.
