Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy's Precursor Basin: A Zoomer Challenge Guide
Following your Fire Canyon adventure, Precursor Basin presents a less perilous, yet arguably more challenging, Zoomer-based level in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. This guide details how to conquer its tricky objectives and unlock all trophies.
Herd the Moles
Begin by herding four moles back to their holes using the Zoomer. Utilize the Zoomer's hop for sharp turns to keep up with them. Reward: A Power Cell from the Geologist in Rock Village.
Catch the Flying Lurkers
Chase and ram the Flying Lurkers in this area. Strategically cut them off at turns to improve your chances of success. Reward: A Power Cell from the final Lurker.
Beat Record Time on the Gorge
Beat the 45-second record on this challenging racecourse near Precursor Basin's entrance (hug the right wall to find it). Utilize Lurkers for extra jumps and collect Blue Eco for speed boosts. Avoid Dark Eco Crates. A sharp 180-degree turn is needed near the pit. Consider the riskier, faster route using a Lurker for a final speed boost, or opt for the safer, slightly slower path. Reward: A Power Cell from the Gambler in Rock Village. A trophy is awarded for completing the course under 40 seconds.
Get the Power Cell Over the Lake
Starting from the slope used for chasing Lurkers, carefully navigate the narrow bridges and gaps using the Zoomer's hop. Time your jumps precisely to reach the Power Cell across several islands.
Cure the Dark Eco Infected Plants
Charge with Green Eco and drive through the purple plants to cure them before they regrow. Use the hop for sharp turns and the Green Eco Vent to refill.
Navigate the Purple Precursor Rings
Complete this time-limited ring course. The trickiest parts involve hopping off the natural bridge and avoiding a hole in the raised track. Reward: A Power Cell.
Navigate the Blue Precursor Rings
This more difficult ring course starts near the lake. Key challenges include navigating around pillars, utilizing rocks for high jumps over the lake, and making precise hops off hills. Avoid the Zoomer Trans-pad. Reward: A Power Cell.
Free the 7 Scout Flies
Collect all seven Scout Flies scattered throughout the area. Their locations are described above. Reward: A Power Cell.
By mastering these challenges, you'll unlock numerous Power Cells and trophies, fully conquering Precursor Basin.
