Jeffrey Parkin (he/him) has been writing video game guides for Polygon for almost seven years. He has learned to love just about every genre of game that exists.

Scattered throughout Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart’s Sargasso Outpost L51 level, you’ll find collectibles like Armor Pods, Gold Bolts, Spybots, Lorbs, and CraiggerBears. In this Rift Apart Sargasso Outpost L51 guide, we’ll show you the location of every collectible in the level with maps and screenshots to make sure you don’t miss anything.

Armor changes Ratchet’s appearance and gives you a stat boost whether it’s equipped or not. Gold Bolts put new skins on your weapons and unlock cheats. Spybots have intel about planets, but more importantly, will earn you a special weapon when you collect enough.

On your first visit to Sargasso Outpost L51, there are 3 Armor Pods, 2 Gold Bolts, and 1 CraiggerBear to collect. The remaining collectibles will have to wait until you can return here after a quick jaunt to Scarstu Debris Field.

Like Corson V Nefarious City, you’re free to explore (most of) this level once you’ve finished the story objectives. You won’t get a new means of navigating (yet), but it’s a little easier to collect everything once the story-based pressure is off.

Once you can fly around on Trudi, start flying to her various perches to collect as many Zurpstones as you can. Once you collect 45 of them, Mort will call and tell you Trudi can also breathe fire. Use Trudi’s fire to shoot any of the Zurpstones that were out of reach before. Collect all 60 Zurpstones, and Mort will reward you with the Sargasso Spybot.
