Complete walkthrough for all missions in Sonic Adventure 2, including finding Master Emerald pieces, collecting rings, locating lost Chao, and clearing Hard mode.
- 1Mission 1: Find 3 pieces of the Master Emerald!
Emerald pieces are randomized per playthrough. For detailed hunting strategies, consult brak2000's guide. The stage has four floors: starting, main, side ledges, and top. The main floor features an air lift base and four corner statues. The starting floor has two sections. Middle ledges are good spots for emerald pieces. The top floor has metal and wooden boxes, and pushable structures. Metal boxes are located up and right from the start. Outside the stage, you'll find the sunken Sphinx to the right and the Lonely Statue to the left. The area around the air lift has statues and holes. Near the starting area, climb a wall behind a spiked enemy and spring to find a picture. Use gliding to quickly scan the stage and your radar to detect pieces. Utilize in-stage computers for hints.
- 2Mission 2: Collect 100 rings!
Start by collecting 8 rings. Head to the top of the pillars for approximately 56 rings. Go to the outside and land on a ledge below the windmill-like structure for about 30 rings, bringing the total to 94. Head towards the Lonely Statue to find the remaining rings to reach 100.
- 3Mission 3: Find the lost Chao!
From the starting area, go to the main floor and turn right towards a statue. Climb the wall to the top floor inside. Find and break the four metal boxes in the corner. Dig into the oval shape in the center to enter another room. Play the Mystic Melody on the ancient shrine to open a door with another shrine. Play the Mystic Melody again. A warp will open on the opposite wall; enter it to reach the room with the Chao.
- 4Mission 4: Collect the Emerald pieces in 2 minutes 0 seconds!
This mission is identical to Mission 1 but with a strict 2-minute time limit. Employ the same tips for efficient emerald hunting.
- 5Mission 5: Clear Hard mode!
Emerald locations are fixed in Hard mode.
- First Emerald: Ride the air lift upwards and head towards the Lonely Statue. It's located under a platform with four ledges. Stand on the large stone structure with wooden boxes and jump/glide to reach it.
- 6Second Emerald: Go outside and drop to the ground around the air lift. Find the area with a spiked enemy and a spring. Jump onto the wall behind it, climb up, and dig into the picture. In the small room, equip sunglasses and follow a trail of rings up a wall. Climb and dig into the picture to find the emerald.
- 7Third Emerald: Located at the bottom of the air lift. From the starting point, go to the three pillars on the left. Use the middle (shorter) pillar. Equip sunglasses, find a spring, run into it, then into another spring, which will lead you to the emerald.
- Gliding and using the radar are effective for finding Master Emerald pieces.
- In-stage computers provide helpful hints.
- For Mission 2, prioritize collecting rings on the pillars and then the outside ledges.
- For Mission 3, remember the location of the metal boxes on the top floor.
- In Hard mode, equip sunglasses when indicated to reveal hidden paths or items.
