as taken from marshmallow's FAQ at gamefaqs.com...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
o. COLLECTING THE POWER BOMBS:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Where do I go after the Gravity Suit?
---------------------------------------------

A: We get to open up a brand new area -- Phazon Mines, the source of the
Pirate's powerful new technological upgrades that use that nasty blue stuff.

First we have to go through the wreckage of the pirate ship. What a
coincidence -- it landed right on top of the Phazon elevator.

Reaching Phazon Mines
-------------------------

The sunken derelict is located in the Tallon Overworld, of course, we've been
here before. With the gravity suit we can also nab a missile pack under the
water. To get to the ship's front door you simply jump up the platforms
(underwater) that leads to a seemingly dead end. Roll into a ball, go through
the tunnel (to the right) and it'll lead on up. Blow open the ice door and
we're in.

This entire level is VERY linear. It also has two nice energy tanks. Same set
up as the start of the game, we just need to use the heat visor to find
electrical conduits to shoot with the wave beam so we can power up the failed
systems. You do that about 5000 times. The first energy tank will find you --
it'll be behind a grate that is right in front of you, so it's hard to miss.
Blow it open and grab it. The second one is in the morph ball maze. Go to the
long vertical shaft and do bomb jumps until you get high enough to get it.
Bomb jumps send you higher underwater, so this is arguably easier than the one
you get like this in Magmoor. The only other thing of interest here is a
missile pack at the bottom of Biohazard containment -- use a super missile to
blow up the tube you can scan. Easy snatch.

After lots more thermal scanning + wave beam using you'll be dumped into the
Phazon elevator shaft.

Phazon Mines (SAVE POINT)
---------------------------------

Now things get juicy.

As you step into the main quarry you need to switch to the ice beam and lay
waste to any pirates that get in your way (charged shot kills them, they're
weak). When you find the mega turrets use two charged power beams to kill
each. Near them is a magnetic track for the spiderball which leads to the save
point. YOU NEED THIS SAVE POINT TRUST ME!

Q: Duh huh, why do I need this save point?
---------------------------------------------

A: Well Charlie, you'll go about a mile through advanced pirate hordes and
ultra turrets and a boss. This is the last save point until after the power
bombs. Things get a little rocky, so use this. Or die and lose all your
progress until after the gravity suit...whatever you feel like doing there,
bub.

Continuing to Power Bombs
------------------------------

Jump down to the dead turrets and examine the two consoles to open the force
field. The Space Pirates are tired of you getting in the way of things and
have found a way to reverse engineer several of your weapons and incorporate
them into their own body suits...your first tango is with Wave Pirates. The
only way to kill them is with wave beams, preferably charged (4-5 charged per
pirate will put it down). After the first encounter the door will be in the
ceiling, which leads to a large lab.

In Elite Research you get to see another twisted part of their plan: injecting
Phazon into their own kind to make "Elite" pirates. Loads of data here to scan
for story. Don't worry about the thing in the tube, it won't come out to
dance. Activate the computer to get to the next level and meet your first
Power Pirate (use the power beam to kill it -- one super missile also works,
since it uses the beam to fire). Activate the console up here and you'll find
a large, industrial sized plasma beam. Get into the spinner device and spin
until it is pointing straight ahead of you. Activate the computer to fire and
the doorway will be laid bare. Another missile pack can be found here also by
blowing away the wall to the left of its starting position.

Fall down the vertical shaft and enter Ore Processing, which is an interesting
puzzle room. More akin to Zelda than Metroid, really. Slay the Power Pirates
and go to the machine. The hologram shows the tracks in the central pillar.
When you bomb the machine the bottom part of the pillar turns, shifting the
magnetic tracks. Keep an eye on the upper left hand corner of the screen and
stop when you see the BLUE track stop there.

Use the blue track to reach the second story and find the center bomb device.
Again, keep an eye on the upper left hand and stop when the RED lines up over
there. Now drop to the bottom and start bombing until the RED track is lined
up (you won't be able to see it, you'll need to use the hologram). Now with
the red lined up you can use the spiderball to roll right up to the third
story. You need power bombs to use the third computer so go through the ice
door instead. Fall down the vertical shaft and enter the elevator that goes
down to Lvl. 2 of the Phazon mines.

Lvl 2. Phazon Mines
-----------------------

In Elite Control Access look at the ceiling (but not straight up) and you will
see a vent. Not the pipes -- a vent -- spewing green gas is right next to an
explosive box. Shoot the box and the vent will be destroyed, revealing an easy
missile pack.

Here in Elite Control you meet your first Elite Pirate, which is really a
pushover. Get out the power beam, charge up a super missile and let it fly.
Three supers will kill it. Then Ice Pirates descend upon you but they are, of
course, vulnerable to the ice beam (charged ice + missile works here for an
instant kill). After possibly scanning roughly thirty two thousand different
lores and data banks you can move on (up the ramp, NOT through the ice door on
the bottom).

The Ventilation shaft is interesting, but you'll see why later when we come
back. Quickly run through to avoid the poison and puffers that fill the room.
Omega Research is more pirate shooting to death, etc. Although it is a waste
to shoot them, since they will be replaced by something tastier when we come
back and there is no lock on the exit. Speaking of which, the exit is in the
floor in a corner.

The Central Dynamo is where've been heading this entire time. It is guarded by
a cloaked autogun of some sort. I don't even think you can scan it, but no
matter. It does relatively little damage, although you may be low on tanks. To
kill it simply hold R and when you see it stop to shoot you shoot a charged
bolt of some sort at it. After a couple shots it dies. For an even easier time
use a well aimed super missile. You may miss with the delay but it will die if
one super connects with it.

After it's dead a hole will be blown in the floor. Go in and navigate through
the electrical maze. When you get in the mass of water use a bomb to clear the
area. Generally, go where the arcing off/on yellow electricity is located. At
the end are the POWER BOMBS! W00t! Now you can blow that annoying BENDEZIUM TO
HELL! DIE BENDEZIUM, DIE!

The Phazon Suit protects you from all but the harshest forms of phazon.

Geez...a couple hours ago I got the power bombs, then got lost with my 27 health out of, like, 500 and died...Where did you say that one save point was?

12-14-2002, 11:22 PM

it allows you to walk in the blue phazon found in the phazon mines.

~mariofreak~

Mr. Bean · 12-14-2002, 11:28 PM

^I would not have died if it wasn't for that. How do you get over the phazon?

Mr. Bean · 12-16-2002, 10:00 PM

Nevermind, for I have skill. I didn't have to clear the phazon...

utsavpokemon · 12-20-2002, 11:29 PM

Now um i need everyone help more than ever, u see i made it to Phazon mines i almost got he power bombs but i died in that stupid electrical maze, i have 7 ENERGY TANKS is that enogh or am i missing any if u know any secret location to get more energy tanks pls let me
know

thanks [img]smile.gif[/img]

seven should be enough. just keep trying.

~mariofreak~

12-22-2002, 01:17 AM

Seven was what I had the first time through that part. It is, IMO, the hardest stretch in the game. Just keep going and remember walls are your friends, so hide behind them.

utsavpokemon · 12-22-2002, 09:45 PM

hey thanx! guess what i got the power bombs, the grapple beam and the x-ray scope but now i need to go the Geotherical-something core in the Magmoor caverns (i think that where u get the plasma beam) anywyas wen u grapple beam to each platform and use the spinner thingy to open all the platforms and stuff, wen u fall and u get bak up by the grapple beam, u cant get to the first platform because its too tall....what do ido? is there another way to get to the platfoms? because i've ben trying to find a stratadgey for VERY LONG TIME (2 hour 34 min.) does anyone know? do u know? if u do pls tell me cuz i know u guys are good in-this-obstacle-thingy.

utsavpokemon · 12-23-2002, 05:50 PM

does anyone know?

utsavpokemon · 12-27-2002, 05:29 PM
