Grab the Octolith, which will trigger a security measure that will destroy Samus in 8 minutes! Samus must now backtrack through the area, using her Morph Ball whenever possible, as it is far faster than running on foot. Repeat this pattern as necessary, taking down the pillar! Once all the blue spots are removed, the core of the Cretaphid pillar will be exposed, so strafe left and right to avoid the shots while blasting back with Beam shots. The Cretaphid v1 uses quadruple laser beams to attack, swinging them around the room, so move Samus away from the offending beams, aiming her beam shots at the blue spots on the tower.

Move through the door that opens, finding a portal to a room where a massive security system attacks! The Synergy Core has a set of platforms to climb, but the portal on the floor should be activated first, as it will take Samus back to her Gunship to save.

Kanden will being the fight in his alternate form, so blast him repeatedly to force him to change into his humanoid form, at which point he becomes a far easier target to hit.

Backtrack to get out of the tunnel, hopping onto the ledge above, finding a door to go through to find a set of platforms to hop up (blasting Petrasyls along the way), reaching a door to Data Shrine 03. He will flee, so follow him through the tunnel, emerging to kill Psycho Bits before entering a new tunnel, finding a Missile Expansion. Move right down the hallway, ignoring the green door, coming across a humanoid form ahead (try to scan him, as it is a rival bounty hunter, Kanden). In this vertical room, make use of jumps from platform to platform to reach the top door, moving onwards to find Data Shrine 02.

Head back out of the tunnel and continue onward, fighting a Lesser Ithrak before going through the door to the next room. Once the next door is reached, head through it to find a large room, which holds an Artifact Shield.
