Hive Totem

Here you should see a raised island in the middle of the room, with a bridge toward the only other exit. Step on to the island, avoiding the polluted water. There across the bridge is your Missile Launcher. But first, a Boss Battle in the form of some very protective War Wasps.

Boss Battle: Ram War Wasps

Scan: Ram War Wasp

As you approach the Missile Launcher, a large machine will lower down on top of it. It will then release some Ram War Wasps - these are the biggest threat. The arena will also flood with acid, so don't fall off.

The Ram War Wasps will try to disorientate you by flying around you in a circle. When they are circling, fire rapidly in this flight path and some shots will hit them. They will also stop for a few seconds before attempting to dive at you. You must shoot the Wasps before they dive. A well-timed jump will result in the Wasps flying under you when they dive. It's helpful to keep an eye on the radar screen

When all the Wasps are defeated, the Hive Mecha will open a hatch attempting to release more. You must lock onto it and destroy it before it has chance to do so.

You will have to repeat this process two more times (Three in total) to defeat it. Each time it will release more Wasps than the time before.

After the battle collect the Missile Launcher and use it on the Shielded door ahead.

Proceed to Transport Access North.
