Go forth, eliminating the flying Akrid and their nests. Use the anchor to enter the first hangar. You’ll encounter a new type of enemy in here – a Scorpion. Its weak spot is the link between the tail and the body. There’s a Data Post up in this room, grapple up to get to it. Proceed further along the road, fighting off some more enemies. Enter the base.
Activate another Data Post. There’s a large group of spiders and scorpions up ahead – you can make it easier by blowing up some explosive barrels between them. Drop all the way down in the big hall and secure a four-legged VS, a GAB-25M. Leave through the gate ahead and turn left. Go along the road to the end.
Transform into a driller-tank (Y) and go across the bridges leading over the lava. Activate a Data Post when you leave the building from the other side. You’ll be attacked by a bigger version of a Beetle. The trick to beating him is the same, only its blows are more dangerous. Go past the lava lake. You have to get through this area and get on a highway that you can see on the right. If you want to, you can switch your VS to something faster. When you’re on the highway, approach the gate on the right.
You’re in a corridor that’s patrolled by some probes. Try to avoid their sensors and board a VS. From now on you’ll be fighting Nevec forces instead of the Akrid. Defeat the two mechs that attack you a bit further and go along the ruined road. At the end of it you can grab something that’s easily the lamest thing to use on multiplayer matches in Lost Planet: the Homing Laser. You can use it to shoot down the VS below.

Drop down and go to a tunnel on the right. Inside you’ll be attacked by a GAB25 and a few probes. Jump down and be sure to grab a new type of VS weapon – EM Laser - then proceed further. There’s a VS with a Homing Laser before you. Your only chance is to strike it down it the EM Laser, as it prevents it from loading its weapon. So, whenever you see that it’s starting to charge, fire away and you’ll stop it. Defeat one more VS and board a mech that’s standing in this room. Be sure to arm it with an EM Laser. In the next room you’ll have to destroy even more mechs. On the left side of the room there’s another EM – grab it as well, thus arming yourself with two of these VS-killers.
Boss
This battle can be very difficult if you don’t have the two EM Lasers that I suggested to bring along. Your enemy is a slightly bigger GAB-type VS. First of all, eliminate all the common GABs wandering around the arena, so that they don’t interfere. Be sure to fetch the T-ENG from their remains.
The main boss’ attacks are more deadly when you are standing on the ground, so jump as often as you can afford to (T-ENG!). Attack it only when it’s in the mech form – you can’t do much against its driller form (the only exception is when you can hit its back). Its most devastating attack are the drills, don’t let it catch you with them (jumping is the best way to evade it). Be always on the move, and you should be able to avoid getting hit. Use the EM Lasers to destroy it, they’ll do the thing surprisingly quickly.
