==Fifth Visit: Item Hunting Before Wrecked Ship (Optional)== | |||
Back in the first room of Brinstar, take the first door on the right. With the Speed Booster, you can now pass over the bridge to the right in here. You'll be able to make it without the shutters keeping you out, where you can go through the red door. | |||
The Chozo Statue here has a [[File:SMetroidReserveTankIcon.png]] '''Reserve Tank''' for you. Further, you can go through the bottom tube to reach a [[File:SMetroidMissileTankIcon.png]] '''Missile Tank'''. Bomb the right wall next to this Tank three times to reach another [[File:SMetroidMissileTankIcon.png]] '''Missile Tank'''. Now back to the left room. | |||
The shutters can still get in the way. Instead, shoot up to reveal a Waver and Sidehopper infested hall, which holds a [[File:SMetroidSuperMissileTankIcon.png]] '''Super Missile Tank''' on the left side. The pedestal that holds it will crumble if you jump on it, where you can head back through the left door. | |||
===Learn to Walljump=== | |||
Head to the bottom of the main shaft, and use a Power Bomb to blow away part of the floor. Continue all the way down until you reach the blue door, and go inside. | |||
<br> | |||
Look out for Beetoms here. You can Power Bomb to get rid of all of them. Continue left to the next room, but '''go slow''' when you go in. As soon as an [[File:SMetroidEnergyTankIcon.png]] '''Energy Tank''' appears, activate your X-Ray Scope to reveal there is actually a pit before it. Once you have the location of the pit memorized, step back a bit and make a running jump left at the last spot you can stand on. If done right, you should get the Tank. Head through the greed door to get a [[File:SMetroidSuperMissileTankIcon.png]] '''Super Missile Tank''', then head out. | |||
If you got both items, go ahead and fall in the pit this time. Down here, a save point is on the left, but beware if you use it because this room can he hard to get out of. Morph ball right, under the spikes. Tread cautiously, since there are spikes on the bottom and top of this hall. Also look out for more Breetoms, and Zebbos from the pipes. Go to the next room. | |||
When you enter, you'll see three monkey-like creatures called Etecoons, which are non-hostile. They seem to run and jump away from you, but they're actually trying to teach you how to get out. Specifically, they're trying to show you how to Walljump. If you haven't gotten used to this feature yet, you now have no choice but to do so if you want to leave. | |||
====The Process of Walljumping==== | |||
Walljumping might seem difficult at first, but the process is simple. Merely hold the direction of the wall you need to jump towards, ensuring that Samus flips while jumping. You must hold {{snes|right|dpad}} or {{snes|left|dpad}} as soon as you jump to flip. Once you touch the wall, instantly press the opposite direction and jump at the same time. Repeat this while switching directions to make it up. If you did the first part right, you should see Samus face away from the wall. If you see this animation but still have trouble jumping off the wall, you likely need to press default {{snes|a}} sooner. Once you get the timing down, you should be able to jump from wall to wall with relative ease. Ignore the small left path on the way up. | |||
When you get to the top, you may see one of the creatures jump right, into a path on the wall. Head left, before the ledge to the door. Now dash and jump right, turning into a ball on your way down. You should have enough momentum and time if done right to squeeze into the path where the Etecoon went, where you'll find some [[File:SMetroidPowerBombIcon.png]] '''Power Bombs'''. Take the left door now to get to the main shaft, where you can Power Bomb again at the top to get up. | |||
Now, take the right door. | |||
===Shinesparking With Dachora=== | |||
Know that this section is optional, you can skip to the next if you want. The only real thing to gain here is access to an Energy Recharge Station and a hidden room. | |||
Clear the enemies on the left side, then Speed Boost right in this hall. After going through the obstructions, you'll fall through part of the floor. When you head left, you'll see a friendly bird alien known as Dachora. The door contains an Energy Recharge station if you need it. Anyway, down here the bird will run right, then duck and flash, then jump up. You may recognize the technique it's trying to convey as the Shinespark. Just do as it does, as Shinesparking is the only way back up. | |||
===More Item Collection=== | |||
Go right, returning the the room before Spore Spawn. Continue right, dropping down the ledges until you see an orange door which you should Power Bomb. | |||
In here, take out the Sidehoppers to make the door flash. Jump to find a lone grapple point, and grapple to it. Spin until you're above it to land on it. You ought to have enough time to move when you let go of the grapple, so don't worry if you don't let go exactly above it. With the Wave Beam, shoot the blue switch right to open the shutter. Grapple on the point again, this time swinging right, and heading past the shutter to the next door. So long as you killed the Sidehoppers, you can pass to a room with an [[File:SMetroidEnergyTankIcon.png]] '''Energy Tank'''. | |||
<br> | |||
Back left, bomb the floor left in front of the wall to break the floor. Here, bomb again to make a pipe lift you up. You can now continue back left, killing the Sidehoppers and back through the flashing door to the left room. | |||
Climb back up the ledges, but stop when you see grapple points. Grapple left. You might have gotten the Missile Tank here earlier, but you can get it now if you didn't. If you use the X-Ray Scope and look left and down from here, you'll see the bottom is able to be Power Bombed, and there's a secret path left. Head there, watching out for the spikes and Sidehoppers in the room. | |||
You should spot a part of the ground that stands out on the left side. If you use your X-Ray Scope again, you see that this spot can be Super Missiled, which when blown away leads to an alcove with [[File:SMetroidPowerBombIcon.png]] '''Power Bombs'''. To get out, bomb the left pipe then the obstruction to follow the path down and right. When you reach the end of the path, bomb to be lifted by another pipe, and then you can go through the door. | |||
Return down, then right, past the Charge Beam spot and through the right door. | |||
<br> | |||
If you didn't get it already, a Missile Tank is in the second green pipe on the right wall in this room. Other than that, head up top and to the right through an orange door. | |||
<br> | |||
Sidehoppers are in the next room. Head right, and use a bomb twice while going right to reach [[File:SMetroidPowerBombIcon.png]] '''Power Bombs''', but that's not all. Head right and Power Bomb the wall to clear it. You should recognize this next part as the area where you got the Morph Ball. Continue right, and take the elevator up to Crateria. | |||
===More Items in Crateria=== | |||
When the elevator arrives, head left past the Space Pirates to the vertical shaft room with blue platforms. Jump up the platforms, until you see a part where there are small platforms touching both sides of the walls. Bomb the right wall on the right platform, then Power Bomb the orange door here. | |||
Head right, and freeze the Boyons, making sure they are all frozen in their initial position. Once that's the case, quickly go left before the door, then Speed Boost right. Charge it by ducking, then jump to Shinespark up to a [[File:SMetroidSuperMissileTankIcon.png]] '''Super Missile Tank'''. If you're having trouble, just make sure to duck before the right wall, or it'll cancel the Boost. Also make sure not to delay, because the Boyons stay frozen for only a short time. | |||
After that, head left to grapple over spikes, to a blue door. Bomb the leftmost block to reach the top of the shaft with blue platforms. Head up, then back to the outside area where Samus' ship is located. There, you can get a recharge and save. | |||
With all of that, you are prepared to go to the next part to progress: Wrecked Ship. If you care about 100%, before proceeding you should have 7 Energy Tanks, 2 Reserve Tanks, 120 Missiles, 20 Super Missiles, and 35 Power Bombs if you followed the guide so far. | |||
