Walkthrough[]
At the conclusion of the previous mission, it is recommended to purchase raritanium upgrades for the Tornado Launcher such as More damage and Bigger area, as well as Wider shot and More damage for the Shard Reaper at the weapons vendor. The Shard Reaper is particularly effective in close-quarters combat, while the Tornado Launcher excels at eliminating large groups of pirates, provided motion controls are enabled. Lastly, if not already purchased, consider purchasing the Nano-Swarmers to provide supplemental damage in upcoming battles.
After using the Geo-Laser to create an opening in the hideout, a trio of corsairs will approach to investigate, and they must be dealt with. Upon entering through the hole, you will encounter a few buccaneers and patrolling hardy buccaneers up ahead. Additional buccaneers will descend from above, forming a significant force. The Shock Ravager and Tornado Launcher are recommended in this situation as both can bypass shields, while the Nano-Swarmers can offer valuable support if necessary. Once you defeat the first group, another set of hardy buccaneers will enter through the gate ahead, and they can be dispatched in a similar manner.
There are several crates scattered around that can be destroyed for bolts, as well as a pirate doorkeeper that you cannot pass at the moment. Proceed through the newly opened gate and to be confronted by a swab, an electrified and well-armored pirate that charges you. Swabs are immune to the Shock Ravager, but since it is alone, it can be easily defeated with any weapon as long as you maintain distance. Press on and face a few more buccaneers, along with four hardy buccaneers that emerge from a ship. The platform with the corsair in the corner will raise you up to a zip line. By using it, you will be led to the pirate's treasure room, triggering a cutscene and seamlessly transitioning into the mission "Catch up to Talwyn".
