Guide to Part 22 of Prey (2006): Navigate Keeper encounters, pilot a shuttle, and defeat the final boss, Mother, with strategic tips.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Encounter Keepers in the proceeding halls. Maintain distance to avoid projectiles and use the same strategy as the Keeper boss. They are invulnerable while using telekinesis to levitate objects; evade these hurled objects. Multiple Keepers will increase difficulty. Utilize the three sun beam leech gun stations in the first area to defeat them.
  2. 2
    Collect all available ammo from wall-mounted containers for the final boss battle.
  3. 3
    In the second area, more Keepers and an electricity leech gun station are present. If the sun beam runs out, you cannot return to recharge; use another station if available. All Keepers must be defeated to proceed.
  4. 4
    After defeating all Keepers in an area, head up the wallwalk and through the door to the next section.
  5. 5
    The next area has many Keepers. A sun beam station is located in front of the entrance. Defeat some Keepers, then follow the wallwalk down to an orange portal.
  6. 6
    The proceeding hallway contains Hunters, Hounds, and a couple of Keepers. Conserve any remaining sun beam in your leech gun for the final boss battle.
  7. 7
    Defeat all enemies in this hallway and proceed to the next area.
  8. 8
    After a brief conversation with a mysterious voice, a blue portal will open. Step through it to complete this level.
  9. 9
    Enter the main room. Once the voice speaks, shuttle controls will appear on the walkway. Board the shuttle.
  10. 10
    Use the shuttle to energize objects surrounding the planetoid in the center of the area. Use the Left Trigger and Left Thumbstick forward to propel the shuttle towards the planetoid. Use the Right Trigger to create an energy stream over an object, changing the blue energy beams to orange. Repeat until all blue beams are orange.
  11. 11
    Once all beams are converted, you will be transported to Mother's chamber for the final boss battle.

Boss Fight: Mother

Stats / Weaknesses: Mother is the final boss. Her primary weakness is being vulnerable after her shields are down, which can be triggered by exploding energy objects near her.

Phases:

  1. Spirit Form: Enter spirit form. Fire arrows at each hexagon pane making up Mother's sphere. Once all hexagons are hit, return to your body.
  2. Rifle Phase: Use your rifle to break each hexagon pane. Hunters may spawn; deal with them quickly. Talon will sacrifice himself to help.
  3. Shuttle/Explosive Phase: You will be transported to a new area. Use the touch screen monitors next to structures on the sides of the platform to raise explosive objects into the air.
  4. Shield Break: Wait for Mother to fly near an explosive object. Fire at the explosive object (Crawler Launcher is effective) to bring down her shields.
  5. Damage Phase: With shields down, attack Mother directly for a few seconds before her shields regenerate. Conserve sun beam ammo for this phase.

Strategy:

  • Maintain distance from Keepers and evade their telekinetic projectiles.
  • Conserve all ammo, especially the sun beam leech gun, for the final boss.
  • When piloting the shuttle, carefully control its movement and energy stream.
  • During the Mother boss fight, prioritize hitting the hexagon panes in spirit and rifle forms.
  • Use the explosive objects strategically to break Mother's shields.
  • Exploit the brief vulnerability window after her shields drop to deal maximum damage.
  • Be prepared for Hunters to spawn during the rifle phase.
