Mastering Precursor Basin in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
Precursor Basin, following Fire Canyon, presents a deceptively challenging vehicle-based level in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. While less lethal than its fiery predecessor, its intricate objectives demand precision and skill. This guide will help you conquer Precursor Basin's many trials, securing every Power Cell and Trophy.
Herd the Moles
This initial task involves guiding four blind moles back to their burrows using the Zoomer. Utilize the Zoomer's hop for sharp turns, keeping pace with the fleeing moles until they reach their holes. Reward: A Power Cell from the Geologist in Rock Village.
Catch the Flying Lurkers
These elusive creatures scatter at the Zoomer's approach. Strategic interception at turns is key to catching them. The final Lurker drops another Power Cell.
Beat the Gorge Record Time (45 Seconds)
This race demands speed and precise maneuvering. Utilize Lurkers for aerial boosts, strategically collect Blue Eco for speed bursts, and avoid Dark Eco Crates. Mastering the hop-turn and precise navigation through pillars and moving pistons is crucial. A Power Cell awaits in Rock Village upon success. Beat 40 seconds for an additional trophy.
Retrieve the Lake Power Cell
Starting from the slope near the Lurker chase area, navigate a series of narrow bridges and gaps using the Zoomer's hop. Precise timing and jumps are required to reach the Power Cell across multiple islands.
Cure the Dark Eco Infected Plants
Use Green Eco to charge the Zoomer and drive through the purple plants, eliminating the Dark Eco infection before they regenerate. Efficient maneuvering and Green Eco replenishment are essential. Reward: A Power Cell.
Navigate the Purple Precursor Rings
This time trial requires speed and precise ring navigation. The most challenging sections involve aerial jumps off natural bridges. Completing the course yields a Power Cell.
Navigate the Blue Precursor Rings
The Blue Precursor Rings present a significantly harder challenge. Mastering precise turns, utilizing Lurkers for boosts, and navigating narrow paths are crucial. A key section involves a high-altitude ring jump over the lake.
Another tricky section involves a hop off a hill to reach an aerial ring near the Dark Eco Plants. The final stages require careful navigation of narrow paths and a final ring jump from a slope. Success grants a Power Cell.
Free the Seven Scout Flies
Locate and collect all seven Scout Fly boxes scattered throughout Precursor Basin. These are strategically placed, some requiring access via bridges, slopes and even dropping through holes. Reward: A Power Cell. This completes all objectives in Precursor Basin.
