The Scarstu Debris Field is the second planet Rivet will visit after rescuing clank of Sargossa. This is the smallest planet in the game and the home to Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart's arena mode. You'll make a total of three trip to Zurkie's throughout the game, which lines up perfectly with the Arena's three challenge tiers. There are three gold bolts, five armor pieces, and two spybots to collect here, but you won't be able to get all of them on your first visit, or even second visit here.

If you'd just like to see a full map of the planet, see below. Pay attention to the Spybot at the very top of the map just out of view.

Zurkie's First Visit

Right off the bat there are some easy collectibles to grab when you land. Walk forward out of your ship and over to the right side of the center platform. If you check your map you should see a gold bolt appear right where you're standing it. Tag it on your map and you'll find the bolt is actually directly below you. Just jump off the right side of the platform and hover a bit to grab the first gold bolt.

When you respawn infront of your ship, headforward onto the third platform then turn right. You'll see a pocket dimension and pile of boxes. Break the boxes and you'll see some Raritanium right behind where they were. Press L1 to open the portal and head inside.

Pocket Dimension 78-89-50

This is a platforming challenge that requires precise timing. All of the platforms will alternate rotation at a fixed interval, so you'll need to jump back and forth across them to make your way up and around to the end. The trick is to jump as soon as your hear the chime just before they rotate. You can across from the first platform to the second and jump to the third before they rotate, then wait for the stairs to turn before jumping up all three onto the next solid ground.

From there, wait for the steps to rotate and make your way to the top step. Wait there until you hear the chime, then jump onto the long platform ahead. Run to the end and double jump onto the furthest platform as soon as you hear the chime, skipping the two in front of you. Jump up onto the solid platform and collection your first armor piece at Zurkie's. Jump to the platform next to you and then grab the rift in the distance with L1. Drop down and head back outside.

Bronze Cup In The Arena

Head inside Zurkie's and grab the craiggerbear just to the left of the main desk. Then head over to the bar to start the custcene and meet Pierre. When the cutscene ends, head over to the computer terminal, open the Bronze Cup menu, and start the first challenge.

Here you'll need to defeat five waves of enemies using any weapons you'd like. These are a great opportunity to level up any underused weapons you have because you'll get plenty of ammo for them. Once you've cleared Wave 5 you'll earn your second armor piece.

The next fight is against Francois. This boss will launch slow rockets at you that you'll need to dodge by watching the red boxes on the floor and moving away from them. Additionally, the round vents in the arena will spew columns of fire that you'll need to avoid. It should be a fairly quick fight, and at the end Pierre will reward Rivet with a communication booster for Clank. After talking with Ratchet, head back over to the terminal and complete the Bronze Cup.

Bronze Cup

  • Welcoming Committe: Defeat Pierre's Crew - Second armor piece
  • Monsieur Francois: Defeat Francois - 500 bolts
  • Boomstick Blast: Defeat 25 Goons Using Only the Enforcer - 5000 bolts

Zurkie's Second Visit And Silver Cup In The Arena

On your second trip to Scarstu Debris Field, head back towards the door to Zurkies, but before you go through, walk around to the right side of the passageway and you'll see a slingpoint. Attach to and a fling yourself over to the distant platform to pick up your first spybot.

Once inside Zurkie's, Rivet and Clank will meet Ratchet and Kit for the first time. When the custcene ends, you'll be thrown into a boss fight against Dr. Nefarious. Nefarious stays airborne for most of this fight, so it's best to use quick, precise weapons against him like the Negatron Collider or Ricochet. The Toxiary Sprinkley and Ms. Fungal can also help a lot by locking Nefarious down and dealing tons of damage to him. If you see Nefarious pull out a blade, get ready to dodge out of the way. At 80% health, Nefarious will send Rivet through a portal onto a grind rail.

Jump back and for from the left to right rail as the trains come through. When the dinosaur drop make sure you're on the right rail, then fall down into the arena to continue your fight with Dr. Nefarious. Keep fighting him until you drop him down to 50%, then he'll portal you to Sargasso where you'll have to fight a Grunthor. Avoid his stopping and flailing and take down the beast however you see fit. Once its gone you can go back to fighting Dr. Nefarious. Occasionally, Nefarious will launch a battery of missiles at you. Try to move far from the landing zone to avoid damage.

At 25% health, Dr. Nefarious will return you to Zurkie's. Finish the job and you'll be introduced to Emporer Nefarious, the true antagonist of the game. When the cutscene ends, head over to the computer terminal, select the Silver Cup, and get to work.
