Detailed walkthrough for Part 58 of High on Life 2, covering the tentacle pit, Grunt Factory sections c4a1c and c4a1d, including enemy encounters, item locations, and puzzle solutions.
Walkthrough
- 1After the tentacle pit explodes, quickly jump the gap and crouch-walk past the remaining tentacles. If necessary, use a grenade to distract them.
- 2Proceed past the tentacles to find the exit teleporter.
- 3Before using the teleporter, use hornets to eliminate the two alien grunts: one in the open, and one behind a rock to the right.
- 4Loot the area: a health pack behind the large rock, an ammo canister next to the teleporter, and an armor battery near a small rock.
- 5Enter the teleporter to reach section c4a1c.
- 6Section c4a1c: GRUNT FACTORY, PART 1
- 7Find the passage to a large factory area with peaceful vortigaunts. Do not damage them or use any weapons to maintain their peaceful state.
- 8Turn right upon entering, drop to a lower floor, and collect a health pack and bullet clip.
- 9Crouch-walk across the room to a lift. Ride it up to the next floor.
- 10Head down the walkway to the right to find a healing chamber.
- 11Return to the lift, ride it down to the bottom floor, and jump onto the connecting part to a pole. Ride this up to a conveyor belt.
- 12Jump onto the conveyor belt and ride it to a ledge around a central support pillar.
- 13Crouch-walk along the ledge to another conveyor belt. Wait for two barrels to pass before getting on this belt.
- 14As you near the end of the belt (where barrels drop into liquid), quicksave. Lean backward while falling to land on a ledge in section c4a1d.
- 15Section c4a1d: GRUNT FACTORY, PART 2
- 16Immediately strafe left and run forward to drop to the floor near a large barrel.
- 17Crouch-walk past the right side of the barrel (or run past the left) to a safe dark corner.
- 18Use the hornet gun to kill the nearby alien controller, avoiding the piston. (Alternatively, use the assault rifle or shotgun when it approaches).
- 19Crouch-walk next to the barrel to peek left and hornet the vort on your floor, trying not to destroy the barrel.
- 20Go to the other end of the area to find a dark room with two more grunt barrels.
- 21In the back right corner, find a narrow passage leading to a dead HEV suit with two armor batteries.
- 22At the other end of the room, jump to a higher floor for an ammo canister. Before doing so, fire hornets into the dark pit to kill an alien controller. (Alternatively, use the assault rifle at the pit's edge).
- 23After getting the ammo canister, find a healing chamber to the left. Use it if needed.
- 24Return to the room with the big barrel drop-down pool. Find the small corner lift on the floor next to the pool's left side.
- 25Quicksave before riding the lift up. If vorts are present on nearby walkways, quickrestore and hornet them from below before riding the lift again.
- 26At the top of the lift, move onto the barrel drop-down tank's rim instead of the walkway to bypass an alien-infested area. Be aware of the lift's movement and potential barrel hazards on the rim.
- 27Move to the left end of the back rim and jump to the rim around the leftmost piston.
- 28From the piston rim, jump or ride the piston to the walkway on the left.
- 29Look for vorts to kill, then go to the up-and-down piston in the corner. Ride it down and get off on the upper walkway.
- 30Go down the narrow, dark corridor until near a doorway blocked by a grunt barrel.
- 31Sneak-shoot the vort to the left of the doorway with hornets.
- 32If the vort runs out the opposite doorway, return to the piston, look around the corner, and hornet the vort and another one on the walkway.
- 33Go back to the grunt barrel doorway. Crouch-walk through the gap to the left of the barrel, firing hornets to the left to kill another vort and an alien controller.
Tips
- The peaceful vortigaunts in the factory will only remain peaceful if you do not damage them or use any weapons, including the crowbar.
- When dealing with the alien controller near the large barrel, be mindful of the up-and-down piston.
- Destroying barrels can release active alien grunts, so be prepared for combat.
- Quicksave frequently, especially before making difficult jumps or entering new areas.
- The hornet gun is effective for stealthy takedowns of distant enemies.
- Be cautious of environmental hazards like toxic liquid and crushing barrels.
- Progression to the next section (c4a1c and c4a1d).
- Health packs, ammo canisters, and armor batteries found throughout the levels.
