There are three times when a cutscene plays out and puts you directly in the line of acid rain when you control Samus again. By standing in the doorway you can avoid this easily, but limits your movement to practically nothing. Once all of the enemies are dead, proceed quickly to the morph ball tunnel.

Discovered by Prime Hunter


By following this process, you can acquire the Nova Beam without having to collect the Hazard Shield at all!


Command Courtyard (PH Command)

You know how we've been trying to drain the Grapple Voltage terminal and failing? On accident, I just found the spot we've needed to get at it without taking damage from the rain!

  • Looking directly at the shield, stand in the bottom right corner and you can barely avoid the rain.
  • Turn to face the terminal, move a fraction of an inch forward directly along the shield
  • Drain the gate!

Just make sure you're as close to the shield as possible when sliding towards the Grapple Voltage terminal, or else YOU WILL take damage from the acid rain.

Command Courtyard without Hazard Shield


Skyway Access (PH Command)

There are three times when a cutscene plays out and puts you directly in the line of acid rain when you control Samus again. By standing in the doorway you can avoid this easily, but limits your movement to practically nothing. Once all of the enemies are dead, proceed quickly to the morph ball tunnel.

Skyway Access Fight


Main Lift (PH Mines)

This one's pretty easy, actually. All you need to do is head directly towards the Spiderball track and you'll do fine. The two spinners that lower the elevator so you can continue onward are covered, so no worrying about acid rain there.


Phazon Harvesting (PH Mines)

This one may seem nasty, but for the most part is smooth sailing. Continue to Screw Attack across the room and up the bridges, staying covered upon landing. Once you get to the final bridge that is more of a vertical distance, however, things look like they'll be an issue when they really aren't. bsj into the back wall and SA out onto the bridge about so you land about 1/2 way up, and then SA again to the other side of the room to get under cover.

You're going to be taking some minor rain damage from here on, but by moving fast enough you can direct yourself across from the final door after jumping up a little bit and SA right to it.


Main Cavern (PH Mines)

Nothing special here. Defeat the pirates in the mine and obtain the Nova Beam!


Transit Station Leviathan (PH Command)

As far as I'm aware, this is the only other room that we have to deal with acid rain after collecting the Nova Beam. The rain comes into play after we destroy the door leading to the seed. By calling in your ship from a covered area, you will appear directly below it after it lands. Move into the elevator and fly off to Omega Ridley!
