SKY RUSH GUIDE

Sky Rush Iron Harrier: get the Scatter

The Iron Harrier carries the Scatter in mission 03. You begin the campaign with the Pulse, so this fight teaches you to keep a steady firing lane while moving around the Harrier’s spread shots. Defeat it, then walk onto the dropped gun to recover your next weapon.

Use the forge cover to set up a clean shot

The Harrier arena has cover on both sides and a central approach. Take a moment to see where a clear line opens around each obstacle. You need to aim at the enemy rather than pour shots into the cover between you. Keep space to move sideways when the Harrier starts its attack warning. Standing directly in front of it at close range leaves less room to avoid the fan of incoming shots.

Move across the spread instead of toward it

The Harrier fires a spread of projectiles. Read the warning and start moving before the volley arrives. A short hop can help with low shots, while a dash can get you out of a bad position. Choose a landing area inside the platform before committing. If each dodge carries you closer to the edge, use the next opening to move back toward a roomier part of the arena rather than repeating the same retreat.

Check the objective after the carrier falls

The mission still needs its sector objectives completed. Restore the active beacon and clear remaining hostiles when the display asks for them. If it tells you to collect the fallen weapon, follow that instruction before looking for another enemy. Walk onto the Scatter pickup on the ground. The game switches you to the recovered weapon and records the pickup, so check the weapon bar to confirm it is available.

Learn the Scatter at the distance it suits

The Scatter fires a spread with a smaller magazine than the Pulse. It works best when you are close enough for several pellets to reach the target. You do not need to use it for every enemy once it is unlocked. Switch back to the Pulse for a lane where the spread loses its value, and keep moving while a reload completes. The next weapon carrier is the Rail Knight in mission 06.
