When you reach the top of the shaft drop down to the floor section in the pit below. A sequence of cannons will send you to the very top of the shaft, just look closely at the background of the central shaft to see something interesting as you go. Scan the chamber to reveal that it's sealed via a sonic security emitter, so switch on that Echo Visor again and look for an invisible drone sending the lockdown signal.ĭestroy it to raise the chamber, then jump in the cannon.

As you step inside you'll see a containment chamber quickly snap down on top of a Kinetic Orb Cannon on the right. Step inside to discover a tall shaft leading skyward. Climb up there and follow the narrow tunnel to reach a door. When the final motivator unit appears you'll need to be quick to take it out before it retracts back in the body of the drone.įinish this one off to see the Caretaker drone take a bow and explode, leaving you clear to reach a ventilation shaft at the top of the chamber. Keep zipping back and forth across the tracks and deal with the sensors again. Follow it to find a horizontal Spider Ball track broken into three sections now. Take out the central motivator unit again when it appears to send the drone even higher up. Have fun with the Spider Ball in this maze. If you fall to the floor quickly bomb-jump up to the track again before electricity courses through the floor panel. Continue to deal with the sensors as they appear, and be sure to grab health they drop.

Boost into this object to send the drone higher up the shaft.įollow it up to engage it again, but watch out as the horizontal Spider Ball track here is broken into two sections. Keep this up for a few more sensors and a large motivator unit will extend from the center of the drone. Boost across the track into the ball to destroy it and disturb the drone. To harm this thing, wait for what looks like a small purple energy ball sensor to lower down from the drone. The drone's arms will be constantly moving around the circular track, so keep moving and boost to the opposite side to avoid being knocked off. The floor below you will become electrified, so quickly bomb-jump up to the track and grab hold. The drone will then make its entrance, lowering down and extending a number of arms to touch the Spider Ball track. Climb up the Spider Ball track ahead of you and bomb-jump up to the horizontal Spider Ball track running around the cylinder. Make sure you've scanned it from outside of the cylinder already for your Logbook. Once back in Main Research, you'll find yourself inside the central cylinder where the Caretaker Class Drone resides. Instead, drop below under the raised platform, spin around and energize the Light Portal you find, returning to Aether (but firstly, stay inside the safe zone and wait for your health to fully recharge). There's a door up on the western side of the room you can now reach, but it leads to a shaft where only Wall Jump Surface tracks lead skyward.
