*red faced* - the first level! (the easy one)!!!
I can get to the room and start blasting while his shield is lowered. He gets a good few smackers from my gun but then the 'babies' start attacking me from all sides. They get a good kicking and I carry on the battle with the leader, but before I know it and before i've had time to hit the tower behind him, he fires a rocket and i'm a goner!
5 years i've been stuck on this level and i'm tired of trying.
Maybe i'm just pants at Perfect Dark!! :-(
But before you can do that, you need to drain his shield, which is what the Phoenixes are for!
Simple!
> getting the phoenixes?
erm, yeah. :$
Shoot the Skedar Leader just before he fires a rocket. The explosion from the Phoenix's explosive shells will instantly cause the rocket to explode in his face, instantly draining his shield.
When he summons other Skedar to nip at your heels or slap you, all you can really do is shoot them, with any gun.
And when he cloaks and fights you personally, just run round in circles around the edge.
If he does any of the last two, just keep him busy until he feels like testing the reaction between a rocket and an exploding Phoenix shell again.
I havent finished Banjo Tooie, Perfect Dark, just cannot get past the Skedar ruins level. I just cannot beat the Skedar leader. I know what I have to do I just cant do it without getting myself blown to pieces!
Still got to complete TWINE too. Along with Excitebike 64, that game just gets too hard! And Jeeesh the hill climb is nigh on impossible!
The N64 lives on - well in this house anyway!

when i finish Metroid Prime, if I don't get any more GC games for Christmas, then I hope to go back to my N64 and finish the many games that i didn't, which include:
- PD. Finished on Agent, halfway through Special Agent, only done 4 levels on Perfect Agent
- GoldenEye. Completed Agent and Secret Agent, but haven't unlocked Egyptian yet.
- TWINE, just gotta finish Meltdown.
- Duke Nukem Zero Hour, been stuck on a level where you have to kill a giant brain in a vat for years.
- Forsaken, still gotta do several levels on all difficulties, but I don't know how many levels are on each pathway
I bet there are more games I haven't done, but they're all ican currently remember. Quite a bit to do!
