A New Apprentice
After the duel with the boss Darth Sidious (Emperor Palpatine), you will receive a task to ask Padme about Anakin's whereabouts. In order to meet Padme, you have to use a taxi to reach the East Apartment District.
Head towards the entrance to the apartment. Just like before, fighting the enemy soldiers isn't mandatory, and you can just bypass them. Inside the apartment, enter the blue circle to start a conversation.
You will take control of Padme and then you have to reach her ship. Leave the apartment and head to the next blue circle.
After leaving the planet's surface, open the galaxy map and travel to Mustafar. Once in orbit, fly to the marker that allows you to start The High Ground level.
The High Ground - challenges
This level features 3 challenges:
- Let Him Eat Cake! - You have to use the Force (F on PC, triangle on PS, Y on Xbox) to throw the cake cart at Anakin. You can complete this challenge at the very beginning of the battle. To do it, you need to approach the cart shown in the cutscene (picture above). Stand behind it playing as Obi-Wan and use the Force to hit Anakin. You cannot miss because the damaged cart cannot be rebuilt, so you would have to restart the mission.
- Sneaking In - You have to reach Anakin using an alternative path. You can complete this challenge after you deprive Anakin of the first health bar in the first location of the mission. He will run away. Follow him, but while chasing him, look for the edges you can interact with on the right - they are shown in picture 1.
- Use poles and very narrow platforms to go over the lava. You will reach the lever and, after pulling it, grab onto the next edges. You will complete the challenge when you return to the main route and reach a new location with Anakin.
- Wider Awareness - You have to use steam vents to damage Anakin. You have to do the challenge at the very beginning of the mission. Don't move Obi-Wan. Switch to R2-D2 and send the droid to the blue terminal next to the boss - we marked it in the picture.
The High Ground - initial fights with Anakin
You will fight Anakin, the main boss of Episode 3, playing as Obi-Wan. Use the lightsaber throwing technique (PC is LPM, PS is R2, and Xbox is RT). This way, you can effectively deplete the first health bar of the boss (out of six!).
Stop throwing the weapon when Anakin starts blocking your attacks. You can wait for him to stop blocking the attacks or run up to him and hit him a few times with the sword.
Anakin has typical attacks for bosses using the Force. He mainly relies on strong attacks, indicated by red lines (charge, lightsaber throw) and red circles (long jumps). Dodge those attacks.
The boss can also use a Force grip. You have to quickly swing the left knob to the sides or press the side directional buttons to free yourself (you will receive damage if you fail).
You have to deplete the boss of the first health bar. Anakin will pull Obi-Wan to himself, and QTE will trigger - you have to press the correct buttons rhythmically.
Now the first chase after Anakin will start. You have two options here: The first is to stay on the main path. After reaching the closed door, switch to C-3PO and disassemble the droid. Control the upper part of C-3PO to enter a small hole and reach the button shown in picture 1.
By standing on the pressure plate, C-3PO will unlock the blue terminal from picture 2. You can interact with it by controlling R2-D2 and completing the mini-game with rotating rings.
The second requires you to choose an alternative path and is related to the Sneaking In challenge described in the previous section. Soon after the scene of grappling with Anakin, you need to approach the right edges and narrow passages from picture 1.
The linear route will allow you to reach the lever, and pulling it will open the hatch shown in picture 2.
Both paths described above lead to the same place - you will reach a room where you have to fight Anakin for the second time. This fight does not stand out with anything special, and the only obstacle might be some nearby objects. You can destroy some of them to have more space during the fight.
The defeated boss will run away again, this time to the location with lava. You can't catch up with him right away. C-3PO has to interact with the terminal at the closed passage. This will reveal the wall shown in the picture above, in which Obi-Wan can cut (any) hole with a lightsaber and unlock a path.
The High Ground - fight Anakin in the location with lava
Continue chasing Anakin. Obi-Wan and Anakin will cross their swords again and then jump onto the rail.
You have to unlock the subsequent passage by controlling the droids. Use the fan to go down onto the lower shelf. Get rid of weak enemies there. Destroy the surrounding objects and then build 2 buttons. R2-D2 and C-3PO need to stand on separate pressure plates.
Switch back to Obi-Wan. Move forward slowly and complete a new scene of lightsabres clinching. After jumping onto the lower platform, you will have to fight Anakin for the third time.
During this fight, you have to watch out for the red circles on the ground, which indicate the place of the impact of large falling objects. Fortunately, the game gives you a lot of time to move away safely.
In the next scene, you will climb to the top of the vertical structure. The lava level will be rising, slowly sinking the structure, but you will have enough time to climb. The climbing is also not very complicated because you just have to press the jump button by the protruding edges. At the top, you have to face Anakin once again in a QTE fight.
Wait patiently for the levitating platforms to stop moving. After that, jump onto the large platform where the fourth stage of the fight with Anakin will begin. During this and the next two stages, pay more attention to dodging the "red" attacks of the boss because you can easily make a mistake and fall into the lava.
At the end of the level, Obi-Wan will have to use the help of accompanying droids:
- When controlling C-3PO, you have to jump the levitating platforms to reach the console shown in picture 1. This will start the fifth duel with Anakin.
- When controlling R2-D2, you have to approach the terminal shown in picture 2 and complete the mini-game with the rings.
That leaves the last, sixth fight with Anakin to complete. Depleting the last red health bar of the boss will trigger a cutscene that ends Episode 3.
