On this page of the guide to Star Wars Jedi Survivor, you will find a walkthrough for the Research Tanalor story mission. This mission consists of two smaller tasks, during which you will visit the Shattered Moon and the planet Koboh, looking for information about Tanalor.
Research Tanalor on the Shattered Moon
When you land at the moon base, use the nearby elevator to go down. Continue to the left, grab the grappling point, and follow the yellow pipe and bars to reach a meditation point.
After entering the building, keep walking straight - watch out for Bedlam Raiders lurking around the corner. Follow the linear path.
You will reach the arena where you will fight the Reprogrammed Magnaguard, one of the bosses of Star Wars Jedi Survivor. The opponent is fast and aggressive, but he is not very resilient - you can constantly put pressure on him to end the duel quickly.
We described this fight on a separate page of this guide: How to defeat Reprogrammed Magnguard in the Automated Forge.
Use the Force to disable the obstacle on the wall to the left, then grab the bars and, avoiding the electricity, go as the path leads. This platforming sequence is rather lengthy - during it you will have to jump from one zipline to another, as well as climb the bars while avoiding obstacles.
You will eventually reach a door protected by a green force field. To avoid the obstacle, follow the path on the right. You will fall to the bottom, where you will have to defeat several opponents. After the fight, grab the robot to get closer to the bars. Climb them to reach the rest of this location.
Moving on, you will eventually reach the place shown in the image above. Swing the cradle using the Force, then climb onto it and jump onto the bars. Then jump towards the rope and grab it in flight. Grabbing another rope, jump to the platform in the distance.
Enter the circular room and examine the device on the left. You will be attacked by another boss, Drya Thornne. The enemy fights with a lightsaber, which he holds with both hands, making his attacks rather slow. Importantly, Drya Thornne can become invisible, but you will still see his outline on the screen - use a Force Push to hit the enemy and make him visible again. During the fight, try to parry the enemy and attack after breaking his guard.

Research Tanalor on Koboh via the Stone Spires
After landing on Koboh, follow the path marked in the image above. When you reach Relter, fly to the cave opposite. After the meditation point, grab another Relter and fly through the cave with magma, using the air current coming out from under the ground.
During the flight you will be attacked by the next boss of Star Wars Jedi Survivor, Korej Lim. The bounty hunter is armed with a blaster, grenades and a jetpack that keeps him in the air. Your goal is to pull Korej Lim down to the ground, where he is defenseless - the best way to do this is to use the boss's grenades by simply pushing them back towards him.
The fight against this opponent is described in detail on a separate page of the guide: How to defeat Korej Lim?.
After winning the battle, look up and climb the wall marked in the above screenshot. Moving forward, defeat some enemies and use another Relter to reach the meditation point.
There is another Relter at the meditation point, but instead of riding it, turn toward the pillar on the left and jump to get higher. At the top you will find an orb amplifier. Go past it and enter the cave on the right.
Go through the gap in the wall in the middle of the room and take the square piece off the shelf.
Go back to the other side of the room, use the Force to rotate the mechanism and move the laser beam to the other end of the room to burn the matter.
Go back to the amplifier and pull out the orb from it, then place it in the connector, access to which you have just created. Then, go to the other side of the room, take the orb from the connector, leave the cave and place the orb in the amplifier outside.
Use the orb amplifier to burn matter in the rock below. By doing so, you will create an air current that will move you to the next puzzle.
Descend to the meditation point, grab hold of the Relter and using the air current, fly to the platform on the right.
Use Force Pull to expose the orbs connector in the wall. Then, take the orb out of the amplifier and place it in the connector. You can now proceed to the second chamber of the cave.
Interact with the machine by the wall to unlock a new ability for BD-1 called Koboh Grinder - the robot will now be able to shoot Koboh matter. Use the new ability to create a thread of matter that connects the laser beam to the matter on the wall and proceed to the first room.
Remove the orb from the connector and place it in the amplifier. Then, use a matter thread to connect both sides of the room with the laser beam and burn out all the matter.
Climb the wall to the top, then grab the orb from the amplifier and place it in the connector on the right wall. Then, run along the wall to the other side, take the orb from the connector and place it in the orb amplifier outside.
Use the orb amplifier to burn matter in the rock opposite. By doing so, you will create another air current that will take you to the last puzzle.
Fly on the nearby Relter into the rising air current and head to the spot marked in the image above.
In the cave you will encounter several Bedlam Raiders. After defeating the opponents, use the Force and pull out a square piece from the wall and then block the door on the left with it.
Enter the room on the left, take the orb from the connector, go to the main room and place it in the orb amplifier. Then, move the square piece in such a way that will block the laser beam.
Create a thread of matter that connects the obstacle on the wall to the laser beam on the cube. Then take the orb from the amplifier and place it in the one outside.
Use the orb amplifier to burn off the matter blocking the last air current, and then fly into the Grand Courtyard on a Relter. If you must, use the meditation point and prepare for a boss fight.
After entering the building, you will be attacked by Tague Louesh, one of the bosses of Star Wars Jedi Survivor. The opponent uses a double-bladed lightsaber, as well as a grappling hook, with which he can pull Cal and stun him for a short while. Try to counter your opponent's attacks to break his guard - then counterattack and go on the defensive again.

After winning the battle, interact with the device lying on the table. If you want to get to the Mantis quickly, simply use the nearby meditation point and fast travel there.
