5
Destroy the Leviathan Remnant.jpg

A remnant of the Leviathan is blocking you from deploying the long-range antenna. You'll have to get outside the ship and use the ADS Cannons to sever it from the ship.

There will be three ADS Cannons for you to pilot. Aim and fire at the central mass on the Remnant. Shoot the projectiles it throws at you. Remember that you will be fighting it outside of the ship. There will be O2 recharge stations positioned near the ADS Cannons, so remember to keep an eye on your O2 Gauge.

Chapter 8: Search and Rescue Tips and Strategies

Pay Attention to the Symbols in the Comms Array

Comms Array Node Direction
Unlike the original game where you only need to put the comm nodes in the inner most circle to fix the Comms Array, the remake adds directional indicators that tell where the flow of the electricity would go.

How to Fix the Comms Array: Satellite Arrangement Puzzle Solution

Shoot the Guardian's Tentacles

If there are no explosives around for you to throw at the Guardian, maintain your distance and use your Plasma Cutter or Pulse Rifle to sever the tentacles that secures it on the wall.

Aim for the Central Mass of the Remnant

When you reach the ADS Cannon to shoot the Remnant, you'll notice a mouth similar to the Leviathan's. Aim at the central mass of the remnant, while also shooting at the projectiles it will throw at you.
