Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy's Precursor Basin: A Zoomer Driving Challenge Guide
Following the fiery trials of Fire Canyon, Precursor Basin offers a seemingly gentler, yet arguably more demanding, vehicular challenge in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. This guide details how to conquer Precursor Basin's intricate objectives and unlock all its rewards.
Herd the Moles: A Simple Start
Begin by herding four blind moles back to their burrows using the Zoomer. Use the Zoomer's hop to maneuver sharply and keep the moles in your sights. Reward: A Power Cell from the Geologist in Rock Village.
Catch the Flying Lurkers: A Trickier Chase
These elusive creatures require skillful pursuit. Anticipate their turns and cut them off to successfully ram into them. The final Lurker yields another Power Cell.
Beat the Gorge Record Time: A Thrilling Race
The Gambler challenges you to a 45-second time trial on the Gorge racecourse. Utilize Lurkers for extra height, and strategically collect Blue Eco for speed boosts. Avoid Dark Eco Crates and master the sharp turns. A Power Cell awaits upon victory. A trophy is also awarded for a sub-40-second time.
Retrieve the Lake Power Cell: A Precision Jump
Starting from the slope (Image 1, familiar from the Lurker chase), carefully navigate the narrow bridges and gaps, utilizing hops to reach the Power Cell (Images 2-5). Precise timing and speed are crucial.
Cure the Dark Eco Plants: Eco-Gardening
Charge your Zoomer with Green Eco and drive over the infected plants to cure them. Efficiency is key, as the plants regenerate over time. A Power Cell is your reward.
Navigate the Purple Rings: A Timed Challenge
This timed challenge requires navigating a series of purple rings before time runs out. The most challenging sections involve precise jumps off elevated areas to reach airborne rings. Completion unlocks a Power Cell.
Navigate the Blue Rings: A More Difficult Challenge
The blue rings present a significantly harder challenge. Mastering precise jumps, particularly over the lake and off elevated areas, is essential.
Success grants another Power Cell.
Collect the Scout Flies: A Hidden Treasure Hunt
Seven Scout Flies are scattered throughout Precursor Basin. Finding all seven will reward you with a final Power Cell.
By completing all these challenges, you'll fully conquer Precursor Basin in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy.
