Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy - All Power Cells in Misty Island

Misty Island: Unlocking Secrets and Treasures in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy

Misty Island, a looming presence on the horizon in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy's early stages, holds a significant place in the game's narrative. It's where Daxter's unfortunate transformation occurred, making a return understandably daunting for Jak and his friend. Yet, this perilous island conceals numerous secrets and valuable rewards for the brave adventurer.

Accessing Misty Island requires completing a task in the Forbidden Jungle: help the fisherman catch 200 pounds of fish. This earns you a Power Cell and access to the Speedboat in Sandover Village, your ticket to Misty Island.

The Sculptor's Muse

Your first Misty Island quest involves retrieving the Sculptor's Lost Muse, a golden creature resembling Daxter. Located near the docks, it's quite elusive. You'll need to chase it, utilizing roll jumps to navigate the terrain and strategically intercept it during sharp turns. Breaking large bones creates makeshift bridges to aid your pursuit. Once captured, return the Muse to Sandover Village for another Power Cell (best saved for later).

Blue Eco and the Precursor Door

After retrieving the Muse, locate a platforming section with blue eco orbs, leading to a Precursor Door. Gather as much Blue Eco as possible and proceed to the Precursor Platform. Activating the platform with Blue Eco grants access to a Power Cell.

Conquering the Lurker Arena

To obtain the next Power Cell, return to the area where your Misty Island adventure began. This involves a challenging arena fight against waves of Lurkers, who attack while launching explosives. Utilize the Red Eco they drop to defeat them efficiently and avoid the projectiles. Victory reveals stairs leading to the Dark Eco Pool and the Power Cell.

Scaling the Lurker Ship

Head towards Misty Island's Bay and cross the bridge to reach a Lurker Ship. Climb to the ship's top to claim another Power Cell.

The Cannon Challenge

Ascend the ramp, dodging logs thrown by Lurkers (jump over rolling logs, walk under bouncing ones). Utilize platforms for rest. Defeat the Lurkers guarding the cannon at the top for a Power Cell. Use the cannon to destroy metal boxes in the arena for additional Precursor Orbs.

Balloon Lurker Showdown

Use the Zoomer (accessible via a bridge near the Lurker Ship) to eliminate five Balloon Lurkers in the bay. Careful use of brakes, accelerator, and hops is crucial to navigate mines while targeting the Lurkers. Defeating them yields a Power Cell.

Zoomer Power Cell

Utilize the Zoomer to reach a floating Power Cell. Navigate the ramp and surrounding rocks to reach the launch point, then accelerate and hop to grab the Precursor Orbs and Power Cell.

Collecting Scout Flies

Seven Scout Flies are scattered across Misty Island. The first is accessible by using a seesaw and ground pound to reach a cliff. Two more are located near the arena entrance, requiring careful platforming. Another is found on cliffs overlooking the bay, reached via a seesaw. Two are on the Lurker Ship, one near the bridge and another on a platform along the log-strewn ramp. The final one is near the top of the Zoomer ramp.

Once all tasks are completed, return the Muse to the Sculptor in Sandover Village to conclude your Misty Island adventure.
