Defeat the Thug Leader

Defeat the Thug Leader is a mission in Going Commando taking place in Lunar City, Dobbo orbit. While exploring the testing facility on Dobbo, Ratchet and Clank encountered the Mathematician, who was inviting challengers to the Megacorp Games on Joba if they could defeat a challenger in the Lunar City. The challenge in this instance was none other than the Thug Leader. Clank recognized the Ultra-Mech Pad technology close to the Mathematician, and used it to transform into Giant Clank.

It is possible to obtain the skill points "Dukes Up" and "Robo Rampage" during this mission.

This mission can be replayed at any time, but offers no specific rewards for doing this aside from the opportunity to earn the skill points if desired.

Walkthrough
This mission is played entirely with Giant Clank. Use to punch,  to fire missiles, and  to throw a bomb. allows you to jump extremely high, and when you land, you will crush buildings below it, and deal great damage to the Thug Leader's mech. Holding allows you to jump higher, though a short hop by tapping it can allow you to move quicker. Punches and jumps will deal the most damage.

Your mission here is to destroy the Thug Leader's mech, which is roughly equal to yours in strength. The main challenge here is that the Thug Leader's mech will bring in Attack-Copters that damage you throughout. In order to replenish ammo and health, destroy the buildings nearby or the Attack-Copters for more. This will be needed constantly, otherwise your health will deplete faster than the Thug Leader's. If you are aiming for the skill point, make sure you leave behind plenty of buildings for backup after destroying most until the Leader has low health and you are confident that you can defeat him with what little health he has left. The Thug Leader has his own melee attacks, but they are slower than your punches. The Leader's mech can hover in the air, moving at the same speed, but cannot jump, and opportunities to punch him are easily presented when he lands after hovering. He also mostly moves along the roads.

Punches deal most of the damage, so use them as your primary attack (or even only attack if you are aiming for a skill point). Though it is not possible to dodge the Thug Leader's rockets or the Attack-Copters, it is simple enough to jump over his bombs and to destroy buildings for health. Make sure you stay on your toes, destroying buildings when necessary to heal, and destroy nearby Attack-Copters without letting them distract you too much from your main target.
