Recommended Team:
* Iceman, Toad or Storm to put out fires
* Storm for unique conversation with Beast/Mr. Sinister
* Flier or teleporter for fight against Mr. Sinister
* Character with Flight and Might (Magneto, Jean, Rogue or Iron Man)
  to get homing beacon
* Character with good destructive power for breaking through walls

Explore your home base for a bit, play the Trivia Game, gain some 
experience in the Danger Room, etc. etc. When you're ready, leave through 
the main door and enter Ra's Mouth. Take the left path. After turning the 
corner, fly over to the platform to your left and pick up a data disc on 
the far side of the boat.

Now go back towards the entrance and head the opposite way (as though you 
turned right at the first intersection rather than left). After turning the 
corner, go through the second door on the left. You'll be on a small ledge 
next to a large pit. Using Jean, Magneto, Rogue or Iron Man, fly across to 
another ledge to your left. Push (or Levitate or TK) the column out of your 
way, then go through the door to pick up a homing beacon.

Now head through the door opposite from the main entrance and build a 
bridge across to a meeting with Beast and Mr. Sinister. This is a fairly 
involved fight, but shouldn't be too difficult.

Mr. Sinister is the main villain here; but, he's invulnerable to your 
attacks. To take down his defenses, you have to use one of the four 
Nullifiers spaced around the platform. Stand next to a Nullifier and wait 
for Mr. Sinister to get close and then Use the Nullifier. If Sinister is 
caught in the blast, he will be vulnerable for approximately 10 seconds, so 
lay into him.

To complicate things, Mr. Sinister will constantly hit you with energy 
draining rays as well as a power that causes you to run in fear. Ignore 
Beast (as much as possible), try to dodge Sinister's beams, and keep luring 
him to the Nullifiers. Once Mr. Sinister is defeated, enter the Ancient 
Labyrinth through the door opposite the bridge.

The Ancient Labyrinth is well-named. This is a fairly complicated area, so 
follow the directions closely. From the entrance, take the right-hand door 
and follow the hall around until you see a room with a flaming floor to 
your right. Break down the wall and use Storm, Toad or Iceman to put out 
the fires. (If you don’t have of these three you could fly over or teleport 
past the flames with one team member and the rest will follow. Or just run 
through and take the damage.)

This opens the way to the Temple of Sekhmet, but don't go there yet. 
Continue down the main hall and around the corner and break down the wall 
to your left. You can keep breaking down walls to open up a set of three 
rooms that contain minor loot.

Leave this set of rooms and go straight. You'll come to a pair of doors to 
your right that lead to bridges. When you step through a door you are 
instantly transported to a room that is off the map. The first door leads 
to a homing beacon. The second door leads to a pull lever that opens a door 
opposite the bridge.

Go through the newly opened door. To the right is a large room with an 
Xtraction point. Pass the Xtraction point room and go straight through to 
another room and turn left onto a small ledge. Go left along the ledge to 
pick up a weapon cache. Go back into the previous room and break down the 
wall opposite the way you came in.

Pick up the +50 Energy tech station. Break down the far wall and enter a 
very large room. At the far end you can find the Challenge - Bishop Danger 
Room disc. Head to your left from the disc and climb a pile of stones to a 
wall you can break through. Head to your left, break through the wall, turn 
left and break through the wall again to drop down into a pit.

Go to the far end of the pit, climb the stones and head around to your 
right. Go through the door, take the door to your right and break through 
the far wall to open the way to the Temple of Anubis. Head back and 
continue through the hall until you reach your starting point at the Ra's 
Mouth exit. Go straight through the door opposite the exit, drop down into 
the pit, then climb the stairs to collect the sun crystal.

The door behind the crystal will open and you can follow your map around to 
the Xtraction point. In this room, in the corner diagonally opposite the 
Xtraction point, behind a column, is a sketch book (Wolverine, Abyss, 
Mikhail). You've now cleared this area, collected all the swag and have an 
Xtraction point to use as your "base" for exploring the temples of Anubis 
and Sekhmet. Save your game and head for the Temple of Anubis.

In the first room, head left and pick up the homing beacon in the next 
room. The floor will fall away. Drop down, fight the mini-boss, collect a 
sketch book (Egypt, Egypt Enemy, Bishop), then leave through the door in 
the pit. Climb the stairs and pick up the Survival 504 Danger Room disc in 
the hall at the top of the stairs.

At the top of the next flight of stairs, pull the lever, then head back 
into the homing beacon room and leave through the door directly opposite. 
In the next room, take the door in the middle of the right wall, and break 
your way through walls to a large room in the center of the temple area. 
Break through the wall that is to your right as you come into the room and 
head into the small side room for a weapon cache and data disc.

Back in the large room, break your way through the wall opposite the one 
you came through the first time, and work your way back toward the exit to 
the Ancient Labyrinth. You'll enter a large room with a sunken level that 
has a +10 Body tech station. Now head for the "back" of the temple--the 
places you haven't explored yet.

In the very back of the temple is the altar room. Before entering the room, 
make sure there are no enemies left (there is an Anubite Warrior disguised 
as a statue next to each door into the altar room). When you enter the 
altar room, you'll get a pop-up conversation. Make sure you press ENTER to 
exit the conversation normally, or your game will glitch (see section B.08 
for more info.)

One of the statues will be marked (with a red arrow hovering over it and a 
red X on your map.) Destroy the statues, in the order they are marked, on 
both sides of the chasm to cause the altar with the sun crystal to move 
into the light. Head back to the Ancient Labyrinth, save your game, then 
head to the Temple of Sekhmet.

In the first large room, with all the pillars, find a weapon cache behind 
the first large pillar on your left and the Challenge - Wolverine Danger 
Room disc behind the second large pillar on the left. In the next room, 
turn left to pick up your first canopic jar. Then go forward and to the 
right to get the second jar.

Going deeper into the temple, you will come to a Y-shaped room where you 
can continue straight or go left or right. Go left to reach the third 
canopic jar and a +10 Focus tech station. The right-hand path leads to the 
fourth canopic jar. You'll need a flier or bridge-builder to get it. To 
pick up a data disc, go to the right side of the room and break through the 
back wall and follow the corridor to the disc.

When you reach a chasm that must be bridged (or flown or teleported over), 
you can either cross the chasm (and then another) or take the hall to the 
left, both go to the same room. The hall on the other side of the chasm 
contains a homing beacon. You may want to clear out both halls for the XP.

In the large room you arrive in, cross the wood bridge and stand in front 
of the square container and press Use to put your canopic jars in the 
container. This opens the way for you to continue, so head down the hall. 
At the end of the hall, pull the lever on the upper platform to "rotate the 
sun crystal". You're now ready to pass the Great Seal.


=============================
C.29: Survival of the Fittest
=============================

Objectives:
* Defeat Apocalypse

Areas:
* Hall of the Dead (X)
* Vault of Ages (X - Change Team only)

Items:
[] Danger Room Disc Qualifying Exam 500: Hall of the Dead, immediately
   to your left as you enter
[] Data disc: Hall of the Dead, down the left path in the room after
   the Living Monolith battle
[] Homing beacon: Hall of the Dead, in the room with the data disc, stand
   roughly in the center of the room, on the lower level, and move around
   until "Use loose stone" appears, then press Use to reveal the beacon
[] Tech station (+10 Speed): Hall of the Dead, past the Monolith battle,
   in a room with a glowing statue, Use the statue to reveal the station
[] Weapon cache: Hall of the Dead, in the room with the Xtraction point
[] Sketch book (Holocaust, Archangel, Apocalypse): Hall of the Dead,
   in the room with the Xtraction point
[] Homing beacon: Vault of the Ages, in a side alcove of the main arena
[] Tech station (+10 Strike): Vault of the Ages, one of the generator rooms
   is reached by a hall that splits, take the left-hand hall to get to
   the tech station

Recommended Team:
* Nightcrawler with Master of Chaos comes in real handy during the
  battle against Apocalypse and the Four Horsemen

Return to the Ancient Labyrinth's Xtraction point room. Use the pedestal in 
front of the anubite statues to place the sun crystal on it and open the 
door into the Hall of the Dead. As you enter the Hall, directly to your 
left is the Qualifying Exam 500 Danger Room disc.

The next room contains a boss fight against the Living Monolith. This is a 
long fight, but not an especially difficult one. Monolith is powered by the 
sun's rays reflected to him from the four pedestals on the sides of the 
room. When all four pedestals are active, Monolith is invulnerable. You can 
de-activate a pedestal for a short period of time simply by standing on it. 
This will cause the pedestal to rise up.

You do not have to remain standing on the pedestal as it rises, nor do you 
need to de-activate more than one pedestal at a time (de-activating more 
than one pedestal does not make Monolith any more vulnerable than de-
activating just one).

With one pedestal not reflecting light to Monolith, he is vulnerable to 
your attacks--though, only just barely. You'll be hard pressed to do a lot 
of damage to Monolith, so this battle is one where you just keep pounding 
and use health and energy packs like water.

Run to one side of the room and raise a pedestal. Beat on Monolith for a 
bit, then raise the other pedestal on that side of the room. Keep 
alternating the pedestals and keep Monolith vulnerable and keep hitting 
him. He will, eventually, go down. Head through to the next large room and 
take the left-hand door.

In the room at the end of the hall is the final data disc. You can also 
reveal a homing beacon by Using a "loose stone" in the floor. Just walk 
around the lower level near the center of the room until you get the notice 
on your screen.

Return to the previous room and continue deeper into the Hall. In the next 
room is a glowing statue. Use it to reveal a +10 Speed tech station and 
open the door into the next room. That room has a sketch book (Holocaust, 
Archangel, Apocalypse), a weapon cache and an Xtraction point.

Since you're headed back to base for a rest and refit, might as well use 
the Secret portal next to Forge and rescue Iron Man. In the X-in-a-circle-
shaped room, there are three different devices that need to be activated in 
each corner other than the one through which you enter.

Once all three are activated, Tony Stark appears in the center of the room. 
Talk to him, and, if you've recovered all his armor, you will unlock Iron 
Man as a playable character. When you're ready for the climactic battle, 
return to the Hall of the Dead and exit to the Vault of Ages.

NOTE: You might want to put Nightcrawler on your team and buy the ability 
to redistribute his skill points. Buy up every level of Teleport Frenzy and 
Master of Chaos that you are able to purchase. Also put points into 
Teleport Mastery and Critical Strike. (Or, you can just ignore that advice 
and make the final battle a lot tougher. Your call.)

When you first fight Apocalypse, he actually seems a bit of a pushover, 
and, truth be told, he is. If you know what you're doing (and, since you're 
reading this, you will know what you're doing), this climactic battle turns 
out to be pretty anti-climactic. First, you have to fight Apoc straight up. 
He's not that tough. Spam Nightcrawler's Teleport Frenzy on him and he'll 
go down fairly quickly.

He jumps into his machine and powers up. OK, two can play that game. Jump 
into the machine yourself and you'll be imbued with the Power of the Four. 
You now have:

* Emma Frost's Psychic Beam (Attack button)
* Quicksilver's Speed Charge (Smash button)
* Polaris' Magnetic Burst (Jump button)
* Sabretooth's Regeneration (Use button)

The two you want to use most are Emma's and Polaris' powers. Using these 
powers does not consume energy, but you do have a limited amount of time 
you can use them. You'll get a yellow gauge at the bottom of the screen 
showing your remaining power. You can increase this power by picking up a 
yellow DNA Orb--looks like a yellow Xtreme token. These orbs will start 
dropping like flies, so you shouldn't have any problem staying powered up.

Continue to ignore Apoc and run to one of the two doors from which power 
conduits come into the room. Just walk through the door (in your powered-up 
state of course) and blow (Polaris' Magnetic Burst) through the enemies 
beyond.

If you happen to enter the room that branches right and left, go right. 
Either way you will reach one of the two generators powering Apoc's 
machine. He'll be there ahead of you, so fight him (lots of Psychic Beam 
and the occasional Magnetic Burst work really well).

When he's defeated, he returns to his machine to power up, so take the 
opportunity to destroy the generator. You can only use melee attacks (not 
powers) on the machine, and the best way is to use the Power Jump (Jump + 
Smash). If you remained imbued with the Power of the Four, you should 
destroy it in two or three hits. Otherwise, it's going to take a while.

Once the generator is destroyed, you lose your Power, so run back to the 
main room and use Apoc's machine again and head for the other generator. 
Defeat Apoc, destroy the generator, go back to the main room.

Now it's a straight-up fight again, but Apoc starts by summoning his Four 
Horsemen (Abyss, Mikhail, Holocaust and Archangel). If, at any point, you 
defeat Apoc and a Horseman is still alive, he'll use the Horseman to 
regenerate (the Horseman will be turned into a statue).

So, here's where Kurt's Master of Chaos comes in handy. Run (or, better, 
teleport) to a Horseman that is far away from Apoc and unload Master of 
Chaos on him. Nightcrawler's Xtreme power is the exception to the rule of 
not using Xtremes on bosses--if no other enemy is near, every Chaos attack 
hits the one target. One MoC should take out each Horseman.

Now it's just a matter of beating down Apoc and he's not that much harder 
now than he was when this whole fight started. Truthfully, if you do this 
right, it will take you less time to get the ending cinematics than it did 
to read this explanation.

After the credits roll, you're back in the Vault of the Ages. In a side 
alcove is a homing beacon (or XP reward). In the generator room that 
branches, on the left path, is a +10 Strike tech station.

That's it!

You've defeated all the enemies. Collected all the goodies. Unlocked 
Deadpool and Iron Man (and, hopefully, Professor X by beating all the 
Danger Room courses) and it's time to start a new game. Just choose New 
Game and you'll get the option to start with default characters or 
characters as they were in a saved game.

Good night, Bub.

*HOW TO READ THE SKILL LISTINGS*
There will be a header number (such as C.01.a.vi) followed by the skill 
name followed in parentheses by the skill type. There will then be a colon, 
followed by any skill pre-requisites (i.e. other skills that you must 
acquire first before unlocking this skill) and then the skill description:

Header number - Skill name (skill type): Pre-requisites. Description.

Underneath the skill header will be the list of ranks, their level 
requirements, effects and energy point (EP) cost:

(level requirement): effects, cost EP

If the level requirement for a skill rank is 1, then that skill is 
available from the beginning of the game, unless there is another skill 
pre-requisite.

*ABOUT STATS*
All characters receive four stat points each level that may be spent in any 
way you choose (or may be spent by the AUTO-TRAIT option). Each character 
also receives two stat points that are automatically assigned. Under each 
character's Commentary is a section on Stats that shows the character's 
starting stat points (at level 1) and ending stat points (at level 99) not 
including the player-selectable stat point allocations (i.e. only the stat 
points automatically assingned).

Furthermore, there are maximum stats for each character. You cannot buy 
stat ranks for any character once that character has 250 points (or more). 
However, you can still boost the stat using tech stations, Danger Room 
awards and equipment. However, there are absolute maximums beyond which 
tech station bonuses will cause the stat to "reset" and start over again at 
1. (Danger Room awards and equipment boosts do not cause this.) These stat 
maximums are listed with each character.*

* Stat max values are taken from Majestros' FAQ, as listed in the Credits.

D.01.b) Commentary
------------------
On his own, Bishop is not that strong with average attacks. Power Trip 
gives him good DEF and ups his movement speed, making him one of the faster 
characters, if you choose to utilize it. Bishop is best used as a computer-
controlled character with maxed Energy Fury to boost damage for your tank 
(or tanks). Given the extra damage from Energy Fury, Nightcrawler or 
Wolverine become quite fearsome.

Superconductor can be helpful if you want to spam mutant attacks from 
characters with low Focus scores (like tanks). Big Bang doesn't do as much 
damage as other Xtremes, but the power nullification can be helpful, 
especially when you're facing enemies that revive fallen teammates.

For offense, combine a gun skill with Gun Mastery and let him operate under 
AI control for maximum effectiveness. A few levels of Mutant Master will 
keep him firing almost continuously.

Buy:
* Plasma Blaster: few levels until you can get...
* Full Auto: keep maxed until you can buy...
* Rapid Fire: preferred offensive skill, keep maxed
* Superconductor: keep maxed if you have an energy-hungry tank on your team
* Energy Fury: keep maxed if you heavily use characters that rely on melee
               damage
* Gun Mastery: keep maxed to improve gun skills
* Power Trip: a few levels to improve defense
* Mutant Master: keep near max for energy regen

Don't Buy:
* Bio Beam or Sapping Strike: not useful
* Absorption: might help save on some health packs, but they're plentiful
* Energy Combat: Bishop is not a melee character
