![]() ![]() Below the final Pit Blocks is a small enclosed area: there are Bomb Blocks in the center of the floor, and on the walls. If Samus fails to collect one or both of the Missile Tanks, the entire gauntlet must be circumnavigated again in order to collect them. Both Missile Tanks can be collected in one go, but that usually requires precise timing and jumps. The pit blocks above and below this area reappear, allowing little room for error. ![]() Halfway down, there are two Missile Tanks, one on each side and behind a wall of Fake Blocks.Įach requires their side's Pit Block column to also have been destroyed. Beneath the piles of fake blocks are two columns of Pit Blocks Samus must jump directly in the middle in order to break both columns and start falling through them. The X-Ray Scope, or prior knowledge is required to properly navigate this area. While initially it appears to be a dead end, a whole crevice can be cut out by shooting the wall in front of Samus, which reveals it to be made of Fake Blocks. The upper section of the room is the last part of the Gauntlet. It leads through the left to Brinstar's elevator, and through the right to the Mysterious Statue Chamber. A Green Space Pirate is present on each ledge for a total of five. It has multiple ledges and is made of stonework, with the floor made of technological parts. The final room is a large shaft that is initially explored by Samus while she is enroute to Brinstar at the start of her mission. Behind this wall is an area with another Yapping Maw on the ceiling, and a fissure in the floor that spawns Zebs. The far wall is suspicious as there are spikes facing each other, these spikes are actually disguised Bomb Blocks, and cause no damage when touched. These platforms are slightly too short to fully protect Samus from the lava. Beyond this is a more technological-looking area, with spikes on the ceiling, and only a few platforms to stand on. Behind this wall is an area similar to the first room, with Bomb Blocks, but this time with spikes on the ceiling, limiting Samus's mobility and ability to destroy the pillars without falling into the lava. In front of the statue are regenerating Bomb Blocks that lead behind the statue, where there is a thin wall, this time made of Fake Blocks. The following room still contains lava, but there is a Chozo Statue holding an Energy Tank. While navigating the room, there is rising and falling scalding-hot lava that will kill Samus very quickly if she lacks the proper equipment this type of lava is the same substance seen mostly in Ridley's Lair. Between most of the pillars are Yapping Maws, on the floors, or ceiling, and a few Wavers as well. The first room is very "wavy" on the floor and ceilings, with the crests of the waves being pillars of Bomb Blocks that must be bombed while in midair, or destroyed with Power Bombs or the Screw Attack. ![]() All doors within the area are Blue Doors, meaning that the area is fully open once the Bomb is acquired. This area is considerably difficult to find without knowledge of its entrance's location, as it is behind a wall that looks completely inconspicuous, except for the fact that it is more flat than other walls in the area. The Gauntlet's entrance is on the upper left hand side of the Landing Site in Crateria, behind a wall that is made of Bomb Blocks. 5.1 Super Metroid Nintendo Player's Guide. ![]()
