Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy's Precursor Basin: A Zoomer Driving Challenge Guide

Following Fire Canyon, Precursor Basin presents a seemingly less perilous, yet arguably more demanding, vehicle-based level in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. Mastering the Zoomer is crucial for trophy hunters aiming to collect every item within this area.

Herd the Moles

Begin by herding four blind moles back to their holes using the Zoomer. Utilize the Zoomer's hop for sharp turns to effectively guide them. Reward: A Power Cell from the Geologist in Rock Village.

Catch the Flying Lurkers

Chase and ram the Flying Lurkers in this area. Strategically intercept their turns for easier captures. The final Lurker drops another Power Cell.

Beat the Gorge Record Time (45 Seconds)

This race near the Basin's entrance requires precision. Utilize Lurkers for extra jumps and strategically collect Blue Eco for speed boosts. Avoid Dark Eco Crates. A sharp 180-degree turn is needed near the pit. A faster time (under 40 seconds) earns a trophy. Reward: A Power Cell from the Gambler.

Retrieve the Lake Power Cell

Starting from the slope (as shown in the Lurker chase area), navigate the narrow bridges and gaps using the Zoomer's hop. Precise timing and skillful driving are essential. The final jump leads to the Power Cell.

Cure the Dark Eco-Infected Plants

Use Green Eco to cleanse the purple plants. Speed and precision are key to prevent regrowth. Reward: A Power Cell.

Navigate the Purple Precursor Rings

This ring challenge requires quick reflexes. Note the aerial ring off the bridge—a precise hop is needed. Completing the course yields a Power Cell.

Navigate the Blue Precursor Rings

The blue rings present a greater challenge. The route involves navigating pillars, utilizing hops for aerial rings, and precise turns. Pay close attention to the section after crossing the lake, requiring sharp turns to hit subsequent rings.

Successfully navigating this course awards a Power Cell.

Collect the 7 Scout Flies

Locate all seven Scout Fly boxes throughout the area. These are scattered around previously explored locations. Collecting all seven rewards a final Power Cell. Remember to explore thoroughly near the mole holes, bridges, and raised areas.
