The Giganto Mech

Snivelak. Its attacks included seeking missiles, lasers, fireballs, throwing flying ships at you, smashing the turret you're in with its fist, and rings of deadly energy on the ground. The giganto mech doesn't take much damage from Ratchet's weapons so he had to use gun turrets scattered throughout the fortress. He had to move from turret to turret because after the mech took a certain amount of damage it would get mad and come right up in front of Ratchet and either smash it with its huge fist, destroy it with a laser, or shoot fire balls at it. He also tries to destroy it by throwing a ship at it but its possible to shoot the ship before it hits you. When the fight is over the duo free Angela Cross and take off for Smolg.

Giganto Mech Strategy Guide

Ratchet fighting the Giganto Mech.

By using First Person Mode, it was possible to destroy him faster using RYNO II and firing at his chest. Around 200 ammo of RYNO II (two complete magazines) were needed to kill him, so the player had to move around the battlefield to collect ammo for RYNO II.

It is also possilbe to kill him with just the Tank bot Glove. Simply move behing a corner of a building. if you positioned yourself correctly he will be unable to do any damage to you as his shots will all simply hit the building. while he's distracted pull out your Tank Bot. Steer it right next to the giganto bot's leg then hold down the laser shooting button and fire the TankBots missles as fast as you can. Do this until the timer runs out and then simply repeat the process. You should only have to do this about 6 times (5 times if acid mod is installed)
