Ustanak (cave)
- Chapter
- J2 · The Edonian mountains: the snowy path, the avalanche and the cave
- Where
- 2-3 Cave: ice corridors, the Oko maze, the keycard chamber and the mining drill
Weak point
It can't be hurt: stealth, distraction and the drill QTE
A stealth section. The Ustanak hears very well but sees poorly: that's why it uses the Oko. If an Oko spots you or you fire a gun, the Ustanak comes, and being found is death. Dumpsters are hiding spots, but count on one hide only: the sources disagree on whether the second one kills you. It ends with a QTE on a giant mining drill.
Reward
Medal Defeated Ustanak with the drill. End of Jake's Chapter 2 (achievement A Revolting Development).
Step by step
- Kill the Oko from behind with the contextual attack: silent and instant. Running doesn't alert them.
- Optional 4,000 SP: let the first Oko spot you by the first ice wall with the Ustanak behind it, run to the dumpster and hide: it smashes the wall. Once it leaves, kill the Oko and take the box in that room. There's another box with 2,000 SP up the small ladder on the left.
- The 5-Oko maze: only the first dumpster on the left wall works. Follow the left wall down the stairs: a box with 5,000 SP before the maze. The AI partner won't let you leave until all 5 are dead.
- Serpent Emblem #8: on the water tank at the exit. Turn the door wheel without going through, shoot the emblem (it alerts the Ustanak) and go through the door together at once. In co-op it's easy; with the AI, your partner runs for a dumpster instead.
- On the ice, it smashes the left wall: sprint and slide through the gap in time.
- Keycard: take the 4 Remote Bombs on the right side. Jake boosts Sherry up the broken ladder. Plant a bomb far away and detonate it: the Ustanak goes to the noise and Sherry takes the keycard from the body.
- Four heavy doors in a row: turn the wheel, open and repeat, fast.
- Drill: rotate the stick and press the shown button on cue; repeat until it's driven back.
