Phendrana's Edge
Head to the top until it seams like a dead end turn on the X-ray scope you will see a door behind a sheet of snow use a power bomb to remove ice. Use the plasma beam to open the door.
Any thoughts on the artifact of CHOZO? I've heard its in the same room where you get the X-ray scope but so far I can't find it
Artifact of : Tallon Overworld - Life Grove: You must have Power
Bombs. In the water, bomb the drain to raise a little pillar, then roll into the hole underneath. Use the Spinner to rotate the platform, which will rise up and display the artifact. Hop onto it from higher ground.
Ok, I've beat Meta-Ritley and got into the impact crater and passed all of the fussion metroids and have come face to face with metroid prime. I think I get the jist when she is yellow use the power beam, red plasma, white ice, and purple wave. However I feel hoplessly out gunned here. I ussually get her about half way killed and then run out of life. I've got 11 energy tanks. Did I miss some? Is there some fancy attack I should be using that I'm not? I've tried different missle combos with no luck. Please help!
Hmmmm...I found this on the internet I haven't beeten it yet but this may be useful to others
Metroid Prime Part 1: Metroid Prime can only be hurt by a certain weapon at a time, kinda like the Fission Metroids or the Troopers. However, this guy changes. First you can only hit him with the power beam, then the wave beam. After that he will burrow into the ground to the next level of the crater. You jump down after him. He will go in patterns for a while and then eventually starts changing random. When in the second level and below, whenever you kill him as one color, he will charge at you before changing to another. Roll into a ball and go into one of the side ditches and roll past him. After doing this a few times he will go to the next level again. When he shoots a beam of Ice or electricity, be extra careful, The Ice freezes you and the electricity throws your aim off. When he shoots two little balls at you, make sure your gun is set to that color and blast them. On normal mode, a single charge usually works. Here are the weapons you should use for the first part. Never use any weapon's normal mode. At least use the charge beam for that weapon. When he is yellow, use Super Missiles. When he is Purple, use simple wave beam charges, or use the wavebuster. When he is White, use the Ice Spreader. When he is red, use simple plasma beam charges. The flamethrower is too slow.
Metroid Prime Part 2: Well, if you thought you won, you sure didn't. This is why you needed that phazon suit. It comes with a gun that can only be used here. You can't do anything to him yet. So, just jump over his wave quake things. And, um, don't touch him. When he makes a puddle of Phazon and turns invisible, switch to your X-Ray visor. Sidestep over to the puddle of Phazon and your gun changes. It turns into the Phazon gun. Just step in the Phazon, point at Metroid Prime, and HOLD THE FIRE BUTTON. It will shoot rapid fire at him until the phazon is gone. you'll have to wait for him to do it again. Keep watching him with the X-Ray visor until he disappears again... wait, what? Okay, don't freak out. This time switch to the Thermal Visor. Do the same thing over again. If he ever spawns metroids to help in the fight, just drop a Super Bomb to take them both out. Hopefully they're close enough. After the thermal visor, switch back to the combat visor. He will keep going in this pattern. If you know what to do, which you now should, it's easy. After enough hits with the Phazon Rifle, he goes down.
Artifact of Elder: [need plasma beam] Go to Phendrana Drifts - Control Tower. In one of the small towers (above the doors) there are boxes in front of a frozen window. Blow up the boxes. Then, thaw out the ice with the plasma beam, and then shoot a missile at the fuel tanks on the nearby tower. When it crashes there will be a hole to roll into, and the artifact will be within your grasp.
Does anyone know how you get into the sunchamber to get the artifact in there? There's vines in the way of the door via the passage from the arbitorium, and I can't find the other two symbols in the sun tower to access the spider grip thingy. I've activated the other two symbols behind those dial things...
