Submachine: Legacy – Shattered Quadrant Step-by-Step Guide

An efficient easy to follow step-by-step guide to beating Shattered Quadrant with as little jumping around as possible.

Step-by-Step Guide to Shattered Quadrant

Introduction

First of all you MUST activate all the monoliths in the chapters. If you are missing one then you need to go back and find it. I won’t be telling you how or where to find them here. You can make some progress if you’re missing some, but you can’t beat it, and then you will screw up the order of the guide. So do yourself a favour and make sure you have all the monoliths activated. You can check your achievements to see if you’ve activated them all.

Guide usage

• Simpy follow each section in order.
• Each section will have a list of either:
• An item or ticket to pick up. (The name of the item or ticket will be listed)
• Or an action to perform

• (P) means through a karmic portal in that room; anything indented after the (P) means it is in the area through the portal.
• (P1), (P2) etc. Means the first or second portal in that room (going from left to right)
• (T) means through a transporter or teleporter in that room

Example section

• Architect’s study room
• (P) Laser junction :: horizontal node
  • Use Plasma vial
  • (P) Use Weight stone

So in this area you can find the ticket “Architect’s study room”, and then go through a portal to find the ticket “Laser junction :: horizontal node”, and then in the same area you must use the Plasma vial, and then you will find another portal in this room where you must use the Weight stone.

Make sense? Good. Now on with the guide.
