The flight route
The plan is built from the game levels; lighter means higher. Zoom with the wheel or two fingers, drag to move. Pick a step to see only its points; click a name to show it.
Step by step
- Travel to the Hagga Rift. It is a region in the eastern part of Hagga Basin. The step completes as soon as you get there.
- Disable the surveillance sensor. The stands in the north of the region. Then get in an ornithopter: light, medium or heavy all work.
- Gates 1–4. The first is right by the sensor, about 200 m away. The route then heads east and turns south at the fourth gate, 400–460 m between gates.
- Gates 5–8. The track runs south along the eastern edge of the rift. The longest leg is from the seventh to the , about 730 m. The last gate is by the Harkonnen fortress .
How to make the time
- 45 seconds per gate. Each gate has its own timer. The longest leg, 730 m to the eighth gate, needs about 60 km/h on average; the rest are easier.
- Gates open one at a time. The next one appears only after you pass the previous one, so keep the map above at hand.
- Exploration Houses give this contract: Taligari, Wallach, Varota, Argosaz and Hurata.
