Misty Island: A Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy Guide

Misty Island, a location pivotal to the plot of Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, presents a formidable challenge for Jak and Daxter. This guide will walk you through acquiring all the Power Cells and Scout Flies hidden on this treacherous island.

Accessing Misty Island

First, assist the fisherman in the Forbidden Jungle by helping him catch 200 pounds of fish. This reward unlocks access to the Speedboat in Sandover Village, your ticket to Misty Island.

The Sculptor's Muse

Your initial task involves retrieving the Sculptor's Lost Muse, a golden creature resembling Daxter. Locate it near the Misty Island docks. The Muse is elusive; you'll need to chase it, utilizing roll jumps to navigate the terrain and strategically cut off its path to capture it. Return the Muse to the Sculptor in Sandover Village for a Power Cell (save this for later).

Blue Eco and the First Power Cell

After retrieving the Muse, head right from the docks to a section with blue eco orbs. Collect the orbs and use the accumulated Blue Eco to activate a Precursor Platform, bridging the gap to a Power Cell.

Conquering the Lurker Arena

Next, prepare for an arena battle. Charge with Blue Eco and enter the Precursor Door. Defeat waves of Lurkers, utilizing their dropped Red Eco to your advantage, while dodging aerial explosives. Victory unlocks a path to the Dark Eco Pool, where another Power Cell awaits.

The Lurker Ship and Cannon Power Cells

Proceed to Misty Island's Bay and board the Lurker Ship. Climb to the ship's top to claim a Power Cell. Continue upwards, dodging rolling and bouncing logs, to reach a cannon. Defeat the guarding Lurkers to obtain another Power Cell. Use the cannon to destroy metal boxes in the arena for additional Precursor Orbs.

Balloon Lurker Challenge

Access the Zoomer and eliminate five Balloon Lurkers patrolling the bay. Utilize the Zoomer's hop and maneuverability to navigate the mines and target the Lurkers effectively. This feat yields another Power Cell.

Zoomer Power Cell

Use the Zoomer to navigate the ramp, rounding a rock to reach a section where a hop will propel you to a final Power Cell and Precursor Orbs.

Collecting the Scout Flies

Seven Scout Flies are scattered across Misty Island.

  • Fly 1: Found along the Muse's chase route, use a seesaw and ground pound to reach the clifftop.

  • Flies 2 & 3: Located near the arena entrance, navigate the crumbling path (see image above).

  • Fly 4: Access this fly via a seesaw to the left of the arena exit, leading to a cliff overlooking the bay.

  • Flies 5 & 6: Found on and near the Lurker Ship; one is just past the bridge, the other on a platform along the log-laden ramp.

  • Fly 7: Located near the top of the Zoomer ramp mentioned in the "Zoomer Power Cell" section.

After collecting all seven Scout Flies, return the Sculptor's Muse to complete your Misty Island adventure.
