• This floor is composed of several unique Compact Area segments.

Goal: Defeat two battlepods and get to the elevator.

For the first battlepod fight:

The player can lead the respawning mecha knight over to the far right behind the divider and leave it behind. Once it's as far south and to the right as it can get, dash north, away from the mecha, quickly walk up, around, and then south until the mecha "follows" as far south as it can get. Dash up and to the west and head back over to the battle pod, sticking to the south wall. This prevents having to deal with a respawning mecha during the first fight. This might take a few tries, but it is good practice - whenever possible, it is best to trap and ignore respawning enemies in some way, especially if the party is unable to quickly eliminate them as they appear. There are a few places in the game where this tactic saves a lot of hassle.

For the second battlepod fight:

Focus firepower on the battlepod while shield bumping the respawning mecha knights away. If the player brought weapons capable of inflicting freeze, freeze the mechas instead of defeating them, because they will simply quickly respawn if they are destroyed. The gun puppies can be ignored until later, unless they notice the party, then they should be defeated as soon as possible.
