Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy's Precursor Basin: A Zoomer Driving Challenge Guide
Following Fire Canyon, Precursor Basin presents a less perilous but arguably more challenging vehicle-based level in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. Mastering the Zoomer is crucial for trophy hunters aiming to collect every item within this area.
Herd the Moles
Begin by herding four blind moles back to their holes using the Zoomer. Utilize the Zoomer's hop for sharp turns to effectively guide them. Reward: A Power Cell from the Geologist in Rock Village.
Catch the Flying Lurkers
Chase and ram into the Flying Lurkers in the same area. Anticipate their turns to intercept them efficiently. The final Lurker drops a Power Cell.
Beat the Gorge Record Time
Beat the 45-second record on the Gorge racecourse near Precursor Basin's entrance. Utilize Lurkers for extra height, and strategically collect Blue Eco for speed boosts. Avoid Dark Eco Crates. Master the hop-turn for sharp corners and efficient navigation around obstacles like moving pistons. A successful run under 40 seconds earns a trophy. Reward: A Power Cell from the Gambler.
Get the Power Cell Over the Lake
Navigate the terrain, using the Zoomer's hop to cross gaps and reach the Power Cell over the lake. Precise timing and skillful driving are essential for this challenging sequence involving multiple island hops and a narrow bridge.
Cure the Dark Eco Infected Plants
Use Green Eco to charge the Zoomer and drive through the purple plants to cure them. Quick and precise driving is key to preventing regrowth. Reward: A Power Cell.
Navigate the Purple Precursor Rings
Complete the Purple Precursor Ring challenge before time runs out. The most challenging sections involve aerial hops off natural bridges. Successfully completing the course yields a Power Cell.
Navigate the Blue Precursor Rings
This more difficult ring challenge requires skillful maneuvering around obstacles and precise timing for aerial rings. Note the tricky pillar navigation, the hop off the hill near the Dark Eco Plants, and the crucial turn after crossing the lake. Reward: A Power Cell.
Free the 7 Scout Flies
