All this publication's reviews Read full review. Walk forward until the red arrow is spinning, this means you are right on top of it. Use an Order spell as the game suggests and open it to get a Topaz Amulet. Now go into the water to the right of the airship and you'll meet an interesting enemy.

Despite being called a "Slasher", he doesn't slash you. He grabs you if you get near and damages you by eating your face off. You have to press X to get away.

The cutscene points out a parasite on an obelisk. You'll need to hit the parasite and then hit the obelisk. The game tells you to use time rewind, but I just evaded him and hit it. You can shoot the parasite off before he will notice and come after you. Now go to the altar. Your only choice is earthquake. Take it and then do the usual for arena. Dash to the corals nearby and then onto the ship.

Take a left for an ambush. Shoot the flies down and then break the obelisk. Kill the enemies and then continue following the ship and you'll have an event where you meet Michelle. Right after, there is a chest nearby. The chest is invisible at first, you have to use an Order spell. That metal platform on the far left of the screen when facing the two wooden planks leading up leads down, walk down it and then jump over to the platform and use the Order spell to claim the Swords of the Shining Star.

Use the compass if need be. Continue following the path, and two flying enemies will spawn. Shoot them down. Continue along the path to the next boss. The Shaman is actually fairly easy. At the start, run toward him until you can dash at him. Do so and attack him for a few seconds. He will start charging up an attack.

After a few seconds, dash behind him and then dash to the coral on your left. Dash across them and when you reach the 5th one you'll dash back to the boss. Repeat until he dies. The one thing you need to watch out for is the big fire spell he uses. It causes fire explosions all across the bridge. If you are jumping across the bridge via corals during the attack, it will hit you.

You need to avoid getting hit at all for an achievement. Clear the Jungle Kill Shaman Boss. Now go up the bridge to the side opposite where you started. Follow the path to an altar and take the special dash attack, Arena time. Hold B and press RT to use it. Afterwards enter the portal nearby. Go forward and look on the right for a break in the wall.

Enter it and follow the path to a cutscene. Look for some stairs to the left of the guy with the sword and take them down, then take a left and go forward to find another break in the wall.

Follow the path to the door with a wheel. The game tells you a guard has the key. Backtrack, killing guys until you get a key the game tells you when you do with some text. Return to the wheel and open the door. Go inside. The game points out a spike trap, double jump over it and continue to the fight. Shoot the humans nearby and shoot everything else as they fight amongst themselves.

After everything is dead an altar activates. Use the compass to a find a chest nearby that you can open with the Order spell to get a Dragon Amulet. Approach the altar and choose Combo Rage and Frost Weapon. The Slasher spawns. Dash past it and run away for a bit, then use rewind. While it is chasing your clone, run past it and use the wheel to open the door.

Continue up the stairs and pull out the compass. Follow it until it starts spinning. Use your Order Spell to snag a Ring of Eternity. Afterwards, fall back to where you were and use the rocks as cover to shoot everyone.

Inch out slowly and start with the guy on the gate opposite where you are. Then kill the guys on the left on the cliff. Once they are all dead, go up to the wheel on the right and turn it. The gate will close before you can get to it. Walk up to it and then rewind all the way to before you opened the gate.

Then go through as your clone turns the wheel and drop down. Go up the stairs for a cutscene. Gun the guys down using the pillars as cover, and then use the wheel to open the gate. Follow the path to the door, use the wheel, enter, achievement.

Old Temple Reach the Sanctuary. You'll see lasers in front of you. Dash past when the horizontal one is high enough that you won't hit it. At the end of the corridor are two humans. Progress forward, but watch out for the spike trap. Double jump over it. After the spikes, whip out the compass and look for a treasure chest on the right when the tunnel opens up. Use an Order spell and grab the Machine Gun from the chest, which will net you Ready To Fight Find all types of equipment.

The Machine Gun shoots more bullets, but you cannot strafe while shooting. You can however, strafe while shooting with the rifle. Rifle is better when fighting in the open, use the machine gun behind cover. Follow the path up the stairs and kill the rifle guys around the top. At the top of the stairs, face the stairs and go down the path on the left that leads straight ahead. Backtrack to the stairs and follow the path on the left going left. There is now a room with two switches, a statue, and a spike trap.

You need to get the item on the statue. First, trigger the bomb trap on the ground and then wait about 15 seconds or so. Then stand on one switch for 10 seconds. Move to the other and rewind time back about 5 seconds. Your clones should activate both switches removing the spike trap, quickly grab the item. Backtrack to the stairs and take the path on the right going straight ahead.

There will be a break in the wall on the right. It has a wheel and a door. Use the wheel and enter. Kill the four guys in here and touch the statue. This guy isn't fun at all. You'll need to damage him to about half way.

You can jump and use melee attacks, which is pretty dangerous. You can melee on the ground and use Heavy Strike too. You can also shoot his stomach to damage him from afar. Shooting him, your only worry is when he lowers his shoulder, that means he is about to charge. Exit shooting mode and dash left or right to dodge it.

Once you get him to half health walk up to him and press RB. Then mash X when prompted. Once he knocks you off, rewind and press RB from behind him while your clone is kicking his face. You should jump up and cut the pipes leading to his regeneration tubes.

If not, rewind and try again. After that, shoot or melee him to death. He follows the same patterns except he jumps in the air and stomps on the ground occasionally. Now use the wheel to exit and look to the right. You'll see enemies fighting. Take them all down from afar using your gun. Enter the gate behind them using the wheel. Inside, stick to the left wall and use it for cover to kill the humans, and then look for the altar on the right.

Take Massive Ignition and Fire Weapon. It's entirely possible to get 5 enemies at once killed here, if you can't, don't worry about it. You'll have plenty of chances to do so and it can be done in outbreak as well.

Brutal Kill Kill 5 enemies at once. Go up the nearby ramp and go through the doorway for a cutscene. You need to jump across the gaps while avoiding the traps.

You can dash after a double jump and will need to do so in order to make it across most of the gaps. These are fairly difficult and the timing to pass them is pretty steep, all I can really suggest is practice. Note that at the end of most platforms are two torches, standing on the edges of these torches and jumping to the torches on the next platform makes the jumps a bit easier. Once you get to the platform from the cutscene with the lasers, another cutscene will show you where to go next.

Jump on the first wooden platform, then jump on the platform to your right not through the spinning blades , then jump to the next wooden platform, and then the platform with the switch. Now you'll need to jump all the way to that platform in front of the spinning blades, and then jump to the platform with the lasers.

Go through the now laser-less door to find The lasers on the left are the way to go. Double jump over the bottom two while the third one is at the top.

Double jump between the 2 beams on the sides in the second laser group and watch out for the spikes. Dash through the next group. For these next ones, look at the ground and you'll notice laser tracks. You'll see a bunch of lasers moving back and forth behind the two blocking your path. Run past the set moving back and forth when they pass you going toward the two stationary ones. The last set is next. You need to regular jump over the two horizontal ones when the vertical ones move all the way to the sides.

Once you get past them, step on the switch and the lasers disappear. Whip out your compass and move toward the arrow until it is spinning and use Order to find the Swords of Emerald Light.

Now touch the statue. Straight left of the statue is the path to take. Progress forward and you'll see some flying enemies appear. Use a nearby pillar for cover and gun them down. Go forward after they are dead and use the wheel. Jump over the spikes on the way to the door and then use rewind so the clone opens the gate for you. Go through and approach the altar. Take Massive Freeze and Critical Strike.

Hold B for 2 or so seconds and then press Y. Follow the path to the next portal, pick up the page nearby on the right. The first thing you should do is grab the Naturalist's travel writings Page If you are facing the portal switch, you can find it in the corner to your right. Here, you have to use your order spell to get the two orbs to the altar. There are two little stone pillars by the entrance door, you'll see glowing orbs on top of them. You have to "push" these across the room to the altar to activate it.

Each time you use Order near it, it'll push the orb to another small pillar. You want to herd it toward the altar, basically. Be warned, sometimes when you push an orb monsters will appear.

They are Chaos monsters so they are almost invisible outside of an Order orb. Once you've pushed them both to the altar, boss time. This boss. This damn boss. Basically, you want to start off by blitzing it until it flies into the air.

This seems to make it come down most of the time. Once it does, pummel it with Heavy Strike B and then A. Attack it with your swords when it is on the ground and you have no rage. Whenever the dog-like enemies spawn I'd suggest killing them as they will do nothing but annoy you. Use your rifle on the Skyguards to get rage so you can use Massive Inferno if the boss is in the air.

Hopefully this video helps make this strategy clearer. World of Order Defeat Skyguard Commander. The portal will spit you out in a desert region.

This is really wide open and there aren't really any landmarks, so I'll mention the compass for navigation more often. Stay in the shadows when possible, the sun will kill you in seconds. This area has no treasures or notes, you only need to worry about getting through it.

Use the compass and it'll tell you to go forward, rush across the sun spot to the next shadow. There are enemies here, two shield guys. Kill them both Heavy Strike works well and then shoot the 3 spear guys.

Now go to the shadow the two throwers were at, and then cross to the shadow the last one was at. Use the compass. The direction it points at will have a thrower, kill him. At the end of the shadow you'll notice 3 shield guys. They'll start coming toward you, try to gun them down before they get to you. After they are dead, shoot the parasite off the coral. Now dash out, dash to the coral, and then jump off and dash to the shadow. You should make it just in time. Progress forward and hit the switch.

A shield will drop down and put a shadow on the wheel in front of you, use it. Walk to the cliff and then jump off the left side toward the platform for another cutscene where exactly would she stash that, anyway? Time to fight. A sandworm is in the ground and will shake the ground when it is about to surface. It pokes its head out so fast you can't really hit it. Use rewind after it has attacked once or twice and then attack it when it appears, the slowdown makes it easier to hit him.

After that, look for the corals nearby. Shoot the parasites off, double jump toward it and dash to it, and then dash across them to the platform. You'll see a green device nearby. When you approach it new enemies will appear. These annoying things swim in the sand and jump out at you. When they jump up you can hit them and kill them.

They swarm very quickly though. You can jump up on the platform with the green switch and heal if you need to. They cannot reach you there. Once they are dead, use the green switch to get the shield into a position you like and then dash shadow to shadow to reach a blue switch. Step on it. You'll see a shield drop down. Return to where the first green switch was and you'll see some steps you can jump up, which you should.

Cross the small sun spot and look right for a green switch. Step on this too. Return to that small sun spot and look opposite of where you originally came from. You'll see an elevator shaft. Wait for the elevator and then take it up.

You'll see a generator in the shadows. It is blocked by a shield. Shoot the shield to destroy it, and then use the newly activated elevator nearby. When you get to the top you'll be in the sun, so dash forward quickly. Kill the enemies that spawn and continue forward to the ledge. Step on the switch for seconds and then rewind. While your clone is on the switch stand at the edge and aim down to shoot the parasite.

Dash across the corals to the other side and quickly jump off and dash toward a shadow. You'll get the next crystal part. A sandworm and those small things will attack. Kill them all. Jump to the shadow just to the left of the airship wing.

Use your gun to destroy the bombs in the way and stick to the wall until you reach a pipe. Quickly dash across it to find a green switch. Face the pipe and look left. Straight ahead is where you need to go. Step on the green switch for 5 seconds and then let your clone stand on it. A shield will drop. Dash across the desert to the shield, and then dash to the doorway. Progress forward to find a blue switch. Stand on it and then go back to the doorway. The shield that rises opened a pathway.

Dash across to find another blue switch. When you step on that switch a shield will start moving to your left. You need to follow it. A bunch of shield guys will spawn and try to hit you. You'll need to dash past them, counter them, or jump. Jumping is the safest bet.

It will pause halfway for a few seconds and then keep going. At the end, shoot the shield guys down for being annoying, although you can continue ahead without doing so if you like. Continue forward. A sandworm will be in the first shadow. Kill him. You'll see three green switches. One in a shadow. You need to have a clone on two of them and yourself on the last one.

Basically, sit on the first switch for about seconds. Then rewind time all the way back to when you first got on. Then go to the second switch and sit there for seconds, then rewind seconds and then hurry to the third switch when it has a shadow on it. It'll drop a shield allowing you to go to a wheel. Go back to where you killed those shield guys a second ago and look to the right for a cliff you can climb to the wheel. Use it. Go through the door and then immediately turn left and jump up the cliff to find the last crystal.

Hit the blue switch nearby and then turn around and go straight. Use the shields you just dropped for shelter.
