I need help in mysteries of the sith. Possible spoiler.

[usarick]

I'm on level 6. I entered the bar Abron Mar escaped. I had already closed the escape route for his ship. The walkthrough says to go to the triangular wall, behind these passageways is a door you couldn't open before which is now open. I found a big door open that wasn't before. I went through there ,and did all I could find to do, but according to the walkthrough I should have encountered Abron Mar. There is one door that I used to get a grunt form behind it when I tried to open it, now it makes no sound, and still won't open?? I wonder if there is something I didn't do and therefor it won't open??? Help! Sorry for posting Mysteries of the Sith problem here, but I don't know where else to go. Thanks.

The big door is a trap; there are Grans that will throw detonators at you and a couple of trip mines on the ground. If memory serves me correctly, there is a smaller door, to the left of the big door, that leads to Abron Mar. I'll post a screenshot shortly, as I will need to install MotS.

OK, actually I was wrong. The place where you need to go is to your right, not left. Be sure to first close the hangar bay where Abron Mar's ship is docked. Then visit the cantina ans scare Abron Mar away. Go to the big door and neutralize that trap.

 

First screenshot shows the big door that you refer to, and the red arrow points to the place where you need to go at this point:

The next screenshot shows the place once you have passed through that door. The small slanted structure to your front-left is where you need to go; you will find an open door there that was previously closed.

Thanks I appreciate it. I had a really hard time finding that slanted area. Which now I know was the "triangular wall the walkthrough refered to. Thanks again. I'm opn level 12 and I can't seem to find the last 2 secret areas. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Ok, 12 is Dromund Kaas Swamp. Right after you pass the guardian by using mind trick on him and cut down your first flowers, you will notice a small hole to your left. Go there and turn left once again; you will see an octopus in the pool of water. That's your Secret 1.

 

Secret 2 is pretty obvious too - its in the next (or second next) area; you will see a faint light shining up from below the ledge. Force Jump there to gain a force crystal.

Secret 3 is pretty tricky. When you get to the area with one big tree in the center, you will see a ledge to its left, and another one above it, again with light shining up. You can jump on the first ledge, but there's an Ysalamiri on it, so you can't use Force Jump to get to the second. You have to get rid of Ysalamiri by either killing it (but it's hard to hit because it's so small - use fists - and once you hit it, it starts crawling around, which makes it even harder to hit) or pushing it off the ledge (crouch, aim and use your Activate key (spacebar default)).

 

The next one is in the large open area with some flowers to your right when you enter it. You will see a big tree branch above you, and another one to your right-far front, with a force crystal on top of it. Force Jump onto the first one, then Force Speed and Force Jump onto the second one.

Once you've made your way to the temple outskirts and defeated Mara Jade's dark counterpart (Luke Skywalker in the Dagobah Swamp style), you will arrive at a pond of water. To the right of the entrance, there is a deep underwater stream with a vine blocking your way and an octopus behind it. Cut the vine and kill the octopus as you swim down (hint: mind trick/Force Speed), then swim back and take a breath, then go back to where the octopus was and you will see a branch of the water stream to your right-below. Swim there; that's Secret 5.

 

As you surface and go over the debris, there will be a high branch to your back-above. Force Jump there and climb further up for Secret 6 (beware of those dragonflies which keep reappearing).

After you've passed through another large area, you will end up in a semi-narrow passage with a tree trunk in the middle. Secret 7 is to the left of the tree trunk.

 

Flinally, Secret 8 is in yet another large area with a tree trunk in the middle. Like in Secret 3, there will be a lower ledge with Ysalamiri on it, and a higher one with a Force Crystal. Use the same technique as for Secret 3. Alternatively, Force Jump to the top of the tree trunk, then Force Jump straight up, and while in mid air, use Force Pull to pull the crystal towards you (but that way, you don't get credit for the secret).

Thanks again!! It was earlier in the game than where I had been looking. I'm almost done now. I have won the first fight with Kyle. Thanks again.

hey Pa3PyX,

Where did you find the screenshots?

[Pa3PyX]

Made them myself (Most DirectDraw/Direct3D games: hit Alt+PrintScreen while in game, then Alt+Tab out, launch Paint, paste the image, save, then use your favorite converter to compress as JPEG).
