The Strength To Do It is the fourth story mission in Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker within LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. Set among the sprawling, waterlogged ruins of the Second Death Star, this level challenges players to navigate hazardous terrain while facing off against Kylo Ren. Mastering this mission requires balancing intense lightsaber combat with careful exploration to locate hidden collectibles.
Navigating the Death Star II Ruins
As Rey begins her journey through the sunken debris, players must utilize her agile movement skills to scale rusted platforms and cross wide gaps. Look out for wall-running sections and grapple points that reveal alternative paths throughout the wrecked superstructure. Exploring off the beaten track early in the stage rewards players with valuable studs and secret items.
Throughout the corridor traversal, keep an eye out for small passages that can only be accessed by small droids like BB-8. Switching between characters allows you to breach locked doors and reach concealed rooms tucked behind sliceable wall panels. Taking time to investigate these side chambers is essential for achieving a complete run.
Confronting Kylo Ren in Lightsaber Combat
The central focus of this mission is a multi-phase boss encounter against Kylo Ren across the wreckage. Each phase forces players to adapt to unique duel mechanics, including parrying heavy attacks and executing well-timed counterstrikes. Depleting his health bar causes him to retreat further into the stormy weather outside.
During the final phase on the wave-swept sea wall, ocean swells intermittently crash across the walkway. Players can use these hazards strategically to trap Kylo Ren in incoming waves to complete specific level challenges. Staying mobile and dodging red danger zones ensures you survive the duel without taking unnecessary damage.
Finding All Minikits and Level Challenges
Completing all objectives in The Strength To Do It requires finding five hidden Minikits scattered across the area. Some Minikits require cutting through sealed doors with a lightsaber, while others involve destroying specific targets on the outer bridge. Gathering all five collectibles unlocks a special microbuild ship for your overall collection.
In addition to Minikits, completing the three level challenges provides valuable Kyber Bricks for upgrading character abilities. Players can clear these goals by utilizing clever combat maneuvers during the Kylo Ren boss fight and avoiding environmental hazards. Replaying the level in Free Play mode makes it even easier to cleanup any missed collectibles using unlocked character classes.
