Assault on Dark Athena - Culvert - part 1 | Assault on Dark Athena TC of Riddick: AoDA Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

This level begins on a beach, similar to the one from the first mission. Start off by heading towards a small entrance to the sewers [#559]. Keep going straight and turn right upon your arrival in a new room. Ignore commotion ahead and approach the fence. Turn left and press the action key. This will result in Riddick grabbing a ledge.

[#559]

Proceed towards a dark tunnel and you should end up standing near a partially destroyed staircase. Begin moving forward, but make sure not to lose balance and fall. Once you've reached a large gap head down to a lower balcony. Afterwards grab a new section part of the stairs [#560]. Climb up and continue your journey. Make sure to press the crouch key and to choose the blades from your arsenal when you get to the top. Head on to a new corridor.

[#560]

The corridor to your left is being patrolled by a drone [#561]. Wait for the drone to turn around and perform a silent execution to get rid of it. Grab drone's body, move back a little and wait for a second drone to show up. Use drone's weapon to eliminate this threat. Now wait for the final third drone to come running and repeat this action for the last time.

[#561]

Don't leave this area just yet. Take your time to explore your surroundings and you'll find a bounty card (Pally Peedleborn) near the stairs, behind a small crate [#562]. Jump over the railing to pick it up and continue to the next section when you have this item in your possession. You'll get to a ladder after a long walk.

[#562]

Open the door, use a new ladder and eventually you'll end up standing outside the building. Get ready for a series of jumps and other acrobatic moves. Thankfully you won't be interrupted by any real enemies while trying to get through this large area. Start off by turning left. Proceed to a lower platform and move forward to the end. Turn right, press the crouch key and CAREFULLY drop down to a lower platform [#563]. Remember that you can't end up in the water, because Riddick would automatically die.

[#563]

Turn right and approach the wall [#564]. Pressing the action key will allow you to grab the ledge. Begin moving left until you get to a small ledge which you can drop to. Turn around and head forward. Walk through a metal section of the roof after which find a narrow passageway. I would recommend slowing down here, so you're less likely to make a mistake and fall.

[#564]

Eventually you'll get to a new wall where you'll be forced to grab the ledge [#565]. Just as before, head to the left side of the screen. Keep moving in that direction until you get to a small ledge. Start moving forward until you notice a small crate. Get on top of the crate and from there you'll be allowed to climb to the upper platform.

[#565]

Look up and find a hangrail which you can use to get to a new platform [#566]. Notice you're moving on a very small balcony, so you should consider slowing down once again. In addition to that press the crouch key to walk under a few obstacles. Use a ladder to get to an upper balcony. Make a few steps forward there and turn right.

[#566]

You'll now have to make a jump towards a moving platform [#567]. Thankfully you won't have to worry about losing balance once you've completed the jump. Head forward until you get to a new ladder. Use the ladder and approach the wall once you're at the top. Allow Riddick to grab the nearest ledge.

[#567]

Start moving left while hanging on to the ledge and eventually you'll get to a large opening [#568]. Climb up and make a few steps forward in order to collect a bounty card (Veris Braggina). Get on top of a small crate and from there you should be able to jump over to the other side. Head on to the control room which will be located directly in front of you.
