Mission 6 - Forbidden Weapon | Achievements - Legacy of the Void SC II: Legacy of the Void Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Forbidden Weapon. Requires you to complete the mission on any difficulty level.
Danger Zone. Don't let the Tal'Darim laser destroy any of your units. Very simple, you must simply avoid the beam. Its route is shown on the minimap and the speed is small, so all it takes is a bit of attention to get this achievement.
Pull the Plug. Destroy 6 Tal'Darim Gateways or Warp Gates on normal difficulty level. A simple task, all you need to do is destroy enemy bases in points [3][4] and [7].
Unrestricted Access. Complete the mission in 11 minutes on high difficulty level. The key to completing this mission is the solar lance ability. You can also use the deploy pylon. Create more workers and one or two additional zealots after the mission starts. Repel the first enemy attack and keep improving your army. You will need few dragoons in addition to the infantry. Add sentries to them and move north. Northwest from [X1] you will find a barrier and a pylon powering it up. In usual circumstances you would have to walk through the whole map to reach it, but now you can simply destroy it using the solar lance. Use the ability on the barrier and set the pylon as the ending point. The lance will destroy the building and deactivate the barrier.
Destroy the units on the other side, gather sentries from [9] and move ahead. At this point you should have around 40 and more units and in the base you should have at least four gateways producing new ones. Once you will be near [10] you will receive information about incoming warp prisms. Stop on their way and destroy as many as you can. Left from [10] you can also create a Pylon that will allow you to quickly summon additional units. Get through [10] and [11]. Split your forces in such way that the dragoons will destroy the warp prisms and the infantry will attack the infantry. Without the warp prisms the enemy will not receive reinforcements and his turrets will stop working. If you ignore the warp prisms, your army will be decimated. In [11] in first order focus on enemy units and turrets. If you had great losses, don't worry, you're close to the end. Use solar lance in [12] to get rid of most enemies. You can also point the rays in such way that the pylons powering the barrier will be destroyed immediately. If you do that, you can immediately move towards the destination point. It isn't important how many of your units will reach it. One unit is enough to complete the mission and obtain the achievement.
