Jak and Daxter: Power Cells Unlocked on Misty Island

Navigating Misty Island in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy

Misty Island, a pivotal location in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, presents a thrilling challenge for players. This guide details how to access the island and conquer its various obstacles to obtain all its Power Cells and Scout Flies.

Accessing Misty Island

Before venturing to Misty Island, you must assist the fisherman in the Forbidden Jungle's river, catching 200 pounds of fish. This earns you a Power Cell and access to the Speedboat in Sandover Village, your transport to Misty Island.

Collecting the Sculptor's Muse

Your first task is retrieving the Sculptor's Lost Muse, a golden creature resembling Daxter. Located near the docks, the Muse requires a chase. Utilize roll jumps and strategically break bones to create pathways, intercepting the Muse during its turns. Once captured, return it to the Sculptor in Sandover Village for a Power Cell (save this for later).

Utilizing Blue Eco for a Power Cell

Return to the Muse's initial location, turning right to find a platforming section with blue eco orbs leading to a Precursor Door. Collect the Blue Eco and proceed to the Precursor Platform (see image 3). Charging the platform with Blue Eco allows you to cross the gap and obtain a Power Cell.

Conquering the Lurker Arena

To reach the next Power Cell, navigate back to the starting point and engage in an arena battle. Charge with Blue Eco and enter the Precursor Door. Defeat waves of Lurkers, utilizing their dropped Red Eco to your advantage, while dodging falling explosives. Once victorious, climb the revealed stairs to the Dark Eco Pool and claim the Power Cell.

Ascending the Lurker Ship

After the arena, turn right to find a bridge leading to a Lurker Ship. Climb the ship's right side to reach the top and collect another Power Cell.

Disabling the Cannon

Ascend the ramp, dodging rolling and bouncing logs thrown by Lurkers. Utilize the side platforms for respite. Eliminate the two Lurkers near the cannon at the top for a Power Cell. Use the cannon to destroy metal boxes in the arena below for additional Precursor Orbs.

Defeating Balloon Lurkers

Use the Zoomer (accessible via the trans-pad near the Lurker Ship) to eliminate five Balloon Lurkers in the bay. Master the Zoomer's controls (brakes, accelerator, hop) to navigate mines and target the Lurkers effectively. This yields a Power Cell.

A Zoomer-Assisted Power Cell

Ride the ramp (as shown in image 1), turn right, and navigate around the rock (image 2). Accelerate towards the edge, hopping just before launching to collect Precursor Orbs and a Power Cell.

Locating Seven Scout Flies

Seven Scout Flies are scattered across Misty Island:

1. During the Muse chase, use a seesaw and ground pound to reach a clifftop box.
2. & 3. Before the arena door (near the Blue Eco section), navigate a crumbling path and a gap to the left (see image above).
3. After exiting the arena, use a seesaw to access a cliff overlooking the bay.
4. & 6. On and near the Lurker Ship (one past the bridge, the other on a platform halfway up the log-laden ramp). (See image above)
5. Near the top of the ramp used to reach the final Zoomer Power Cell.

After collecting all seven Scout Flies and the final Power Cell, return the Muse to the Sculptor in Sandover Village to complete your Misty Island adventure.
