Enter the tunnel and begin working your way down the platforms to the bottom level. You don't have to worry if you fall, it's not deadly, but you will miss many scans. About one third of the wat down you will encounter a gropu of Geemers. Scan them, then obliterate them with your Missile Launhcer, so you can safely pass. Once you've destroyed the Geemers, turn and scan one of the orange cymbals on the wall for the Alimbic Crest object. A short way after that you will find three shriekbats hanging on the ceiling as you pass, they will notice and Kamikaze you, so try to scan on as quick as you can, and attempt to shoot them out of the way before they hit you. Once you've scanned everything, drop to the bottom and enter the door to Sic Transit.

Hunter Fight: Noxus Immediatley as you enter Sic Transit and look through opening you will see Noxus and Trace fighting. Noxus will immediatley notice you and turn his full attention to you. You will have to constantly move around Noxus to avoid his ice blasts. When he's taken enough damage, he will switch to Vhoscythe. Vhoscythe is a quick, deadly alt form so be careful. Midway through the fight Noxus will take position under the ramp in the larger area of Sic Transit, to hide away from Trace's shots with his Imperialist ( which has rapid fire capability!). Take shelter in the doorway, and fire missiles at Noxus.

Once Noxus is eliminated, you are now able to search Sic Transit, for the six Proxy Locks. You will find Proxy Lock #5 close by to the door sealed by the Orange Blast Shield. You will you Proxy Lock #6 in the near and Alimbic Turret nestled in an orange lit area. You will find Proxy Lock #1 is located at the end of the corridor. Jump up to wherethe sealed doorway is, and look up. The Proxy Lock is located high up on the wall. The three remaining Proxy Locks are located on the damaged bridge. Go back across the bridge to where you came onto it, and hang a right, and down the slope to get the shield key. Head back to the central corridor and head through the door in the middle of the corridor. Inside the Attameter Artifct awaits you. Grab the artifact and head over to the wall behind where the atifact was. Roll into Morph Ball and head under the bent bar. You will roll onto an elevator that will bring you up toward an Energy Tank. When the elevator reachs it's highest point, use a bomb jump to get the energy tank.

When you enter Ice Hive through the door, you have three ways to go. You can't take the left, because its blocked by a Purple Force Field and you don't have any need to take the right right now so head forward and drop through the vision barrier. Down here there are switchs behind sealed force fields. Head to the left to find Energy Router B. Scan it and it will send power through the curcuit and short out all of the force fields covering the other energy routers. Once you scan all of the other energy routers, Five Small nests along the walls leading to the Vault door will begin to spit out Barbed War Wasps. As always, destroy the nests first, then scan and destroy the Barbed War Wasps. Once everything is dealt with down there use the jump pad to head back up through the Vision Barrier. Now you can take the right. Head down the hallway into the small room. In the corner sits the Lore Alimbic Pride 01. Head through the vision barrier and scan the computer to open the Vault Door.

Once your finished, head through the tunnel on the right. As you enter this room, you will be sealed in by Purple Force Fields. Head up the slope and then across the rough bridge of a broken pillar. Scan the flash ing light and sveral platforms in the room will shift. You only have about a minute to do this next part so be quick. Roll into Morph Ball and through the opening to the left of the flashing light. Use a Morph Ball Bomb to propel yourself to the next level. Wait for the elevator to arrive, then bomb jump onto the elevator. Ride the elevator to the top, then follow the tunnel to the drop off. The platform underneath you will begin moving. It will move to the right, then stop, then move forward. When the platform stops, carefully, but quickly, roll across the floating platforms to the tunnel on the opposite wall. Roll through the tunnel and drop down onto the ledge and grab the Judiciator.

Inside grab the UA expansion. After grabbing the UA Expansion, turn around and destroy the Alimbic Turret in the round room behind you. Once it's dealt with, a Shield Key will appear. The Shield Key will deactivate the force field on the floor to the pit below. The Cartograph Artifact is on a small outcropping, drop down and grab the artifact. Turn around and head down the hallway behind you and activate the portal to your ship, but don't head through it yet. Head past the portal in to the next hallway choked with weeds. On your way through keep attention for a small hole on the left. When you find it, switch to Morph Ball and roll through onto a ledge to find the fifth Missile Expansion. After Finding the Missile Expansion, drop off the ledge and blast the Purple Force Field for another UA Expansion. After you grab the UA Expansion, use the jump pad to return to the upper level and head back to Sic Transit.
