Walkthrough[]
The weapons vendor now offers the Mag-Net Launcher for a price of 250,000 bolts. While it may be challenging to afford, you should be close to the required amount. This weapon will be the last one available from the vendor for the remainder of the game. If you decide to purchase it, the Mag-Net Launcher fires an electric net that temporarily disables a single enemy while dealing continuous damage until the effect wears off. Keep in mind that it cannot harm electrical enemies or bosses, but any other space pirate will be eliminated by a single net (after a little while).
To progress, eliminate the buccaneer guarding the ship and board it to reach the main area. Deal with the second buccaneer as it emerges onto the deck. Upon arrival, a group of attacking corsairs will confront you. They should be relatively easy to defeat using the Buzz Blades. In the upcoming corridor, be prepared for an ambush by a rogue. This enemy can be easily dispatched with the Alpha Disruptor and Negotiator. Proceed through the pirate doorkeeper using the Holo-Pirate Disguise, and utilize a Nano-Swarmers hive to neutralize the turret operator and the pair of corsairs guarding a bolt crank. Be cautious of the corsairs that appear in the corridor afterward. If you have enough bolts now, you can purchasing the Mag-Net Launcher from the vendor located next to the open bridge.
As you approach the central area, a group of buccaneers can be attacked from behind. Subsequently, another rogue will emerge from the pit. Reinforcements in the form of a group of hardy buccaneers will arrive, so it is advisable to defeat the rogue swiftly. Continuously deploy Nano-Swarmers and use the Negotiator to eliminate the shielded pirates. This strategy should also work against the four swabs teleporting onto the platform. After dealing with the swabs, two more groups of buccaneers will appear, with the latter approaching from afar across a bridge.
After eliminating all enemies, cross the bridge and head to the left to destroy a pair of raritanium chests. Then, proceed to the right. A group of hardy buccaneers and another turret operator will be guarding a docked pirate ship. To board the ship, make use of the Heli-Pods gadget. Once on-board, the ship will start to move and will soon be flanked by a pirate battleship. Use your Buzz Blades, Negotiator, and Alpha Disruptor (or any other ranged weapon) to target and hit the ship's cannons. Meanwhile, place Nano-Swarmers strategically to handle the buccaneers that have boarded your ship.
During this encounter, you will face a total of three attacking ships, and buccaneers will continually arrive in waves. If necessary, utilize Mr. Zurkon, a Groovitron, or any other available devices to deal with overwhelming situations. After docking proceed through another doorkeeper to enter the final chamber, which is only guarded by corsairs and turrets. Take the opportunity to restock on ammo from the vendor at the end before passing through the nearby doorkeeper, as doing so will mark the completion of the mission and immediately transition into "Defeat Captain Slag".
