Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal/Holostar Studios

Meet Courtney Gears at Holostar Studios

When you arrive at the studios, you will be taken into a cutscene directly. You will get to play as Agent Clank and the Director will explain the scene.

Film a Secret Agent Clank Episode

Use to melee attack the 4 small bots around you, and destroy all the chairs for extra bolts. Jump over the bar and destroy the panel to deactivate the lasers. Jump to the vehicles ahead when they are below the current platform you are on and get to the solid ground at the other side.

Skill Point: Feeling Lucky?

Get a jackpot on any of the slot machines. Hit as many as you can to increase the odds of getting the jackpot. There are more slot machines later.

There are numerous slot machines here. You can activate them by melee attacking them and it costs 10 bolts per spin. If they hit the crate, you will receive some bolts (100-200); if they hit the exploding crate, the machine will be destroyed and can damage you; if they hit the jackpot, you win 25,000 bolts. The machines on the sides are not accessible so do not attempt to jump to them or you will have to restart.

Avoid the first moving laser, and destroy the controls on the next safe platform. Use your melee attack to clear out all the enemies chasing the monkey, then step onto the marked platform in the back. Shoot a banana onto the button so the monkey activates the platform. Once on top, destroy the chimney's for additional bolts and activate the 4 gadgetbots. Once the monkey stands on the platform, step on the button to bring him up.

Continuing along the path, there is a gap in the bridge. Shoot a banana onto the button on the other side to have the monkey restore the bridge. Destroy the panel on the other side to deactivate the laser. Have your gadgetbots enter at the end to deactivate the forcefield. Defeat the two bots and proceed, entering the doors at the end of the path.

You will play as Giant Clank and have to defeat the Terror of Talos. The controls are as follows:

Control	Action
	Melee attack
	Throw Energy ball
	Missiles
	Jump

Most of the city can be destroyed. The missiles don't run out, and the energy ball has a short cooldown. Use the energy ball to inflict a lot of damage, and use the missiles while it recharges. Once he is down to 2/3 health, the director will cue 6 giant ninja robots. There is a counter to tell how many are in the area. Once they are all defeated, they will respawn. Once the Terror is help 50% health, 12 ninjas will spawn. Chase the Terror around the set and continue to attack him, taking out Ninjas that get in your way. Once he is defeated, a cutscene will play.

Escape the Tyhrranoid Ambush

Back as Ratchet, the nearby Auto-Vendor will have the Template:~Rift Inducer}} available. Three small Tyhrranoids will attack, along with a larger flying Tyhrranoid. Defeat them, break the crates in the area, then proceed up the stairs. As you approach the door, it will open. There are multiple small Tyhrranoids inside, 3 large Tyhrranoids, and one very large one with a gun at the back. Outside the cemetery, when the door opens, there is a very large Tyhrranoid with a gun. On the other side of the hallway, and just a bit further down is a jackpot crate. You can get that and collect all the crates and destroy the enemies for lots of extra bolts. There are many small, large and a very large Tyhrranoids in the area, so be careful proceeding down the hallway.

Titanium Bolt #1

In the casino, when you enter, above the green chairs on the right is the Titanium Bolt.

There is a 4 stage hacker terminal further ahead which will activate the elevator to the next level. In the room ahead is a Casino set, with a few small Tyhrranoids, a few large ones, and two very large ones behind the bar (one arrives as you approach). There is some health behind the bar and on the left side of the room. You can also attempt at the skill the point. Using the Comet-strike, you can stay in one place and activate all the slot machines from a distance. Use the Hacker to open the door to the next room.

There is only one large Tyhrranoid on the other side of the pit. Use the Hypershot to get across. Be careful when going around the corner, as there are two more of the very large Tyhrranoids waiting. You don't need to fully kill them, as they will fall to their deaths if their jetpacks are destroyed. Use the hypershot to get across the gap and take out the small Tyhrranoids. As you approach the edge of the room, a spaceship will come out to shoot you. Use your high damage weapons to take it out. Use the targets above to swing to the next platforms.

There are three large enemies on the ground, another one on a platform on the left, a very large enemy on the platform on the upper right, and another in the back. However, there is a small ledge you can use the hide behind and jump and shoot. Once they're defeated, as you move forward, three more very large enemies will enter. You can stand where the enemies were before and use that small ledge again for cover. Once they've been defeated, there is an Inferno crate on the left side of the ledge you were hiding behind. Break it, use the charge boots to quickly enter the next room, and take out all the enemies quickly. If you're fast enough, you will still have some time left with the powerup to take out two very large enemies that fly in once the rest of the enemies are defeated. As soon as those two are killed, the door in the back will open and two large Tyhrranoids will attack. Through the doors you will be back at your ship and a cutscene will play and Clank will rejoin you.
