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

Following Fire Canyon's intense Zoomer section, Precursor Basin offers a seemingly less perilous, yet arguably more challenging, vehicle-based level in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. This guide details how to conquer Precursor Basin's demanding objectives and earn every Trophy.

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 keep pace and 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 cut them off at turns for easier captures. The final Lurker drops a Power Cell.

Beat Record Time on the Gorge

Gorge Race Course

Beat the 45-second record on the Gorge race course (near Precursor Basin's entrance). Utilize Lurkers for extra height, and strategically collect Blue Eco for speed boosts. Avoid Dark Eco Crates. Master the hop-turn for sharp maneuvers, especially the 180-degree turn at the pit. A faster time (under 40 seconds) earns a trophy. Reward: A Power Cell from the Gambler in Rock Village.

Get the Power Cell Over the Lake

Starting from the slope (near the Lurker chase area), navigate the narrow bridges and gaps using the Zoomer's hop. A series of precise hops across islands leads to the Power Cell.

Cure the Dark Eco Infected Plants

Charge with Green Eco and drive through the purple plants to cure them. Speed and precise maneuvering are key, as plants regenerate if you take too long. Reward: A Power Cell.

Navigate the Purple Precursor Rings

Purple Precursor Rings

Complete this time-limited ring course. The most challenging parts involve timed hops off bridges and precise navigation. Reward: A Power Cell.

Navigate the Blue Precursor Rings

Blue Precursor Rings

This significantly harder ring course requires precise driving and skillful use of the Zoomer's hop, especially for the airborne rings. Avoid the Zoomer Trans-pad to prevent accidental dismounts. Reward: A Power Cell.
