INTRODUCTION
Scattered throughout the various environments are small items called
EX MISSION ITEMS. They are small, rectangular, and translucent objects that
are cleverly (well some of them) hidden. They can be collected on any level
of difficulty and with any type of JEHUTY. The purpose of these items, as the
name implies, is to unlock Extra Missions. These missions test your skill as
a runner and provide you with more action.
One method to help you locate these items is to use the L2 button. If you are
close to an EX ICON then you will lock on to that item when L2 is tapped. As
long as there are no enemies around you can easily zero in on these items if
they are present on the field. The ones that need to be uncovered will not
respond to the L2 lock-on. The other method to locate these items is to read
this FAQ. This FAQ includes descriptions of where and how to obtain each
EX ICON. It also makes references to places on the map (accessed by the start
button) if possible. Now, time to go hunting...
A. BAHRAM BATTLESHIP
After attaining JEHUTY and defeating ARDJET, you fly into the BATTLESHIP
flying overhead...
1. Defeat all of the enemies in the third room. After doing so, return to
the second room. It should be easily visible floating on the other side
of the doorway.
B. MARGARITIFIER
After escaping from Deimos Station, you arrive on mars. You are then
confronted by the transforming VIC VIPER...
2. During your battle with VIC VIPER, destroy the rock above the entrance to
CAPRI CANYON in the north-eastern corner of the map. You will need to
lock on to the icon and use the subweapon WISP to get it. Work quickly
to prevent being attacked by VIC VIPER. (This can only be attained by
starting a new game from a saved finished game. Replay the game with all
subweapons equipped.)
3. After the battle with VIC VIPER, ADA will inform you of METATRON near by.
It is in the north-western part of the map on a place called SIE'S LAB.
Upon retrieving the METATRON several enemies will come after you.
Destroy the NARITA's and at some point ADA will say:
"Estimated combat time 90 seconds." When she says this, press the L3
button (push in left joystick). DINGO should respond. A timer will
appear and count down. You will have 90 seconds to defeat the rest of
the enemies. ADA will notify you if you completed the task successfully.
The EX ICON will appear on top of the entrance to CAPRI CANYON.
4. At the south-end there is a bridge with a train wreck. Fly towards
the bottom of the bridge to find another EX ICON.
5. On the lower plateau just south-east of SIE'S LAB (place where METATRON
was), there is a rock. Blow it up to uncover an EX ICON.
6. There is a rock in the northern-most point on the map. It is on the
midpoint between SIE'S LAB and the entrance to CAPRI CANYON.
C. CAPRI CANYON
This is the part where you need to destroy the two locking facilities...
7. Take the left route. After passing through two more gates take the next
left path. You should end up in the left-most part of the map. Near the
gray colored rock wall you will find the EX ICON.
D. LLOYDS LABORATORY: PILLAR ROOMS
After fighting through the city on Air's Cliff, LLOYD finally lets you into
his firery death trap...
8. In the first room with the giant crushing and retracting pillars, destroy
all enemies and fly to the bottom of the room. Look in one of the corners
on the wall opposite the door.
9. There's another one in this room in the other corner.
10. In the third pillar room, destroy all enemies and fly to the bottom of
the room. The EX ICON is opposite the exit.
11. During your fight with Lloyd, while the lights are still on, fly to the
bottom of the room. It will be near one of the corners.
E. UNDERGROUND TUNNEL
After leading the LEV's through the desert to the crevice, this is the
downward path to AUMANN...
12. In the second room there is a small enclosed area on the bottom of the
room. Fly into it to get another EX ICON.
13. Upon entering the third room, you will see a black metal beam that
extends from wall to wall. Destroy it to reveal another ICON close to
the wall.
14. In the second half of this stage (after the cutscene) you will find one
on top of the vertical pillar in the middle of the third room.
15. After leaving the third room, fly downwards to find an EX ICON between
the two doors blocked by red lasers.
F. PHOBOS
After defeating ANUBIS in the illuminated path, you land on PHOBOS and
and ANUBIS follows soon after...
16. Once you regain control of JEHUTY, DO NOT fly towards ANUBIS. Instead,
fly directly up to get the ICON in the sky.
17. Fly low in the area opposite ANUBIS. There is an ICON on the red metal
area.
18. After approaching ANUBIS, a bunch of NEPHTIS clones start attacking.
Destroy five to reveal an EX ICON in the area to the right of the glowing
crack. ( I think you need to kill five, if not, just keep destroying them
until one appears.)
19. Destroy another group of five ( I think...) to reveal another ICON in the
same location.
