Find Otto Destruct is a mission in Size Matters taking place in the Clone Factory on Quodrona. Ratchet and Clank found coordinates to the factory producing Ratchet clones, and traveled there to put a stop to Otto Destruct's plot. Upon arriving on the planet, they could not see any factory in sight, though Clank found a hovercar leading to it. Ratchet suggested stomping around until they squished it, but upon realizing it would take a long time to find, decided that Otto would be a minor threat and agreed to use the Shrink Ray to fight him on his terms.

Walkthrough[]

At the Gadgetron vendor, the Laser Tracer is available, you can also Slim Cognito's vendor that sells mods for a large number of weapons. The Laser Tracer fires a continuous blast that can be moved, and provides a barrier in front of Ratchet, but makes him stationary; it is a powerful weapon against the enemies here and against the final boss, and has good utility.[a] However, a few weapon mods may have higher value, with emphasis on the After Shock Mod for the Shock Rocket, the most useful weapon from this point onward. If the Laser Tracer can be afforded, purchase it now, but prioritize buying mods later. Bolts are earned extremely quickly on this planet, so it is likely many mods will become affordable during the mission. Note that buying mods that improve damage for some of your older weapons is a good idea, as you are likely to run out of ammunition for your unupgraded ones.

Head inside and a few gun turrets as well as basic Ratchet clones appear, carrying OmniWrenches and Lacerators. The former simply use both melee attacks and comet-strikes, and can be defeated with the Laser Tracer or Shock Rocket quickly before they even approach. The latter's ranged attacks can be blocked either with the Laser Tracer or the Static Barrier. After defeating them, access the Grind Lock, and head to the next room with two nurse robots and a few more basic Ratchet clones; the same strategies apply. Use the Hypershot in the next room to proceed forward to a room where several clones appear from pods. These clones have the same weapons and techniques, and thus, the same strategies apply.

Past this is a room where Ratchet must wall jump up quickly before a capsule descends down and blocks the route. Wait until a capsule drops down, then make a quick wall jump to the next ledge and jump up, and repeat until reaching the vendor at the top. The next room contains a large number of Ratchet clones in the middle of training; it is possible to simply fire the Laser Tracer from a ledge above and not drop down at all, though otherwise, the Laser Tracer or Shock Rocket are effective. Use the Grind Lock to unlock the room after, another training room where different mobs of Ratchet clones appear. Defeat them and proceed to the next, where several more appear from boxes, and slam on the button at the end of the room to open a door on the left. This leads into the final mission, "Defeat Otto Destruct".

Notes[]

  1. In the PlayStation 2 version, the weapon is bugged; its ammo consumption rate is so high that it becomes nearly useless.
