Defeating Gol And Maia

To defeat Gol and Maia, first access all Sages at their citadel. After hitting the three Sages that are reachable (Blue, Yellow, And Red), platforms will rise. Daxter will tell you to go up them. There are rotating platforms that are difficult to get on. Once at the top, follow the trail around until you see the lamp to the Green Sage. Hit it and an intermission sequence will start. The Green Sage will tell you about Gol and Maia's robot. Go through the door to your immediate left. Hit the elevator button to go up. Hit all the chests on top, as you will need them. Hop onto the platform with the Blue Eco. You will now be with the giant robot. Pick up the Yellow Eco then jump and fire to break the robot's energy shield. Maia will yell, and a floating drone will be released. Get to the Blue Eco and go to the launch pad. Wait until about the third or fourth tone, then press X to launch yourself away from the blast. Once back down, the robot will shoot Green Eco into the Dark Eco pool. Dark Eco creatures will appear. Use the Yellow Eco to kill them all. Then, go to the Blue Eco vent and repeat the process with the floating drone. Once back down, the robot will shoot out about five or six red spheres. They cause a wave. Grab the Yellow Eco, and while jumping over the waves, shoot at the robot to break off a weapon. Repeat the process of the floating drone once more. Then, grab the Yellow Eco again then try and dodge the fireballs the robot throws. Shoot at the arm until it breaks. The ending sequence will begin. Then, if you have not already done so, go back to each location to complete each task. Collect 101 Power Cells to open the door on top of Gol and Maia's Citadel.

Defeating The Klaww

At the Klaww in the Mountain Pass level, dodge the boulders. The last one he throws will contain Blue Eco. Get it, and a bridge will appear. Run to the end, dodging the boulders as you go. Get the Yellow Eco at the end, and when he starts to make a big boulder, fire away. Keep blasting him until he drops the boulder on his head, then run back to the first three platforms and repeat the process another two times.

Get To Yellow Sage

When you get to Gol and Maia's Citadel, free the Blue Sage first and go on the Blue Eco platform. Roll, then jump off. You will be able to free the Yellow Sage without having to go through the obstacles. Note: This may require some practice to avoid falling.
