The best way to wipe all oil facilities in Mission 8 is equip and use the SFFS bomb. Aim for the gas tanks as much as you can. I used the Su-34 to get it. On Ace difficulty too!
@@ServantBerserkerZero Most every "oil" target will chain explode to to everything around it. I've found the easiest way to complete it is with 4AGM (the 8s are tricky as you tend to waste missiles). The multi target bombs on the F-22 and SOD on the F-35 are pretty good too.
Brotip: for the mission at 7:30 get the LACM. Besides the large explosive range, the LACM is a ground-hugger and can fly above terrain automatically as long as it's not too steep.
@@sidikriders3007 “Land Attack Cruise Missile” and “Long-range Anti-Ship Missile”; technically one is for nailing tough ground targets/multiple targets grouped together, and the other is for sinking ships. The only significant difference in game tho is the LACM’s huge blast range and the LASM’s nonexistent small ass circle of a blast range
@daniyardilimulati8420 Yup. The LASM punches a hole in the ship's armor, then explodes. The blast wave inside of a ship causes massive pressure waves that blow the deck to pieces. Watch closely or in replay slow motion and you'll see the explosion blasting straight up from the deck. So. Frigging. Cool.
I used the YF-23 with HVAA. They have insane range and speed so unless they are turning it basically a guaranteed sniper kill. Not very good for closer up though so I used normie missiles for that. Got it with 15 sec left to spare.
Calamity and Tempest are backwards, for those worried about finding the former. The former spawns at 17k points then flees I think. So if you are quick to hunt him down he won't be so far out.
That first ace is Vietnamese for Hoàng Xuân Tài. his name appeared on the roll credits too. And there is easter egg about that Ace from Vietnam War(ace pilot of Vietcong). Ace Combat 7 involved Vietnamese team in the development.
Close..Except that Top Gun's MiG simulators were actually A-4 Skyhawks, (as flown by JESTER & VIPER) and black-painted F-5's for the 'real' ones..NOT an actual MiG-29 Fulcrum. But, yeah..it's still a nice little nod to Jester & Top Gun anyway! 'Jester' in a real MiG.. And with Top-Gun 2 on the way, who knows what new characters will make their debut..to later show up in AC8!?
@@leodavis4242 G'day Leo, If it's JESTER in the MiG-29 Lastoshka/Fulcrum (in Mission 2) that your having trouble with, it's because your looking in the wrong place.. And the Migs in the airspace over the base, are just 'extra gifts' for you..but they have no bearing on Jester's appearance. You can engage, or ignore them, as you see fit, or as your skills detirmine, to keep a few off your back..but they are insignificant here. Jester starts off on the GROUND, after you destroy the base! Provided you've met the requirements. Just destroy all the games white targets, (along with all the red TGT radar vehicles, except for the very last TGT radar vehicle, nearest the base control tower).. Then, once your ready, (you must be quick here, its the only challenging part of the mission, because all these high value targets only last about 20secs or so)..and if you don't get them all, you don't get another chance..so, when ready, then destroy it too! A minor cut scene will display juicy new targets at the base! Now, QUICKLY Destroy the Control Tower, and all 3 C-17 Globemaster transports on the ground! (WARNING, one of the C-17's has a Helios warhead in it, that detonates when you destroy the C-17..don't be too close to them ( like a gun run, for example) when you kill them, stand off as best you can, and use missiles..just know you dont have much time to be fussy with your approaches either.. I recall you only get approx 5 secs per target or so.. The cut scene with the container drones launching WILL interupt you, and all base/ground targets then disappear..(including the migs, if i remember correctly) except JESTER, taxiing out, to come up and meet you.. He's taxiing out of a shelter, just a bit behind the base's main hangers, where you just destroyed the 3 C-17 Globemasters..the one with the Helios warhead in it. You can't miss him, if your watching your radar right after the cut scene finishes, (and BEFORE you go chasing any of the container drones!)..just ignore them completely until you get JESTER. He's literally the only other speck on your radar at that point..as i mentioned, ALL other ground targets dissapear entirely then. And if your quick, you can even nail him on the ground, before he even gets fully airborne..if you just want the bonus, without the fight.. Now you know! Enjoy owning him mate, however you choose to do it.. See you back on the flightline, nugget. Oh, and a bit of trivia for you, re: the MiG-29. The Russians originally named it 'Lastoshka' which means 'little Swallow' after the small, swift little birds..that have a huge tendency to shit all over everything! The Nato designations, (like Fulcrum, Hind, Foxbat etc)..are simply assigned by computer.
Note on clamity SU57 ace 24. After obtaining 17K points with more than 3 minute left and Arsenal bird missle comes, i found him heading to combat, it seem if you waited a bit longer he will hang around the Borders but i did killed him at C4
Pierce God yeah. I’ve been through the regret of going on easy mode. I believe I tried to get the Su-57 Ace and forgot I was on easy mode, (and then I didn’t try to go back for it for some reason). And I think I made the same mistake of going on easy mode and trying to get the MiG-29A Fulcrum Ace. Also, I got the Axeman Ace by mistake. Same with the Su-37 Terminator Serpent.
You can find Calamity in mission 19 early enough if you fly to the clouds in the south part of the map. Once you spawn him with 17000 points, he'll fly through the heavy clouds, which makes locking onto him pretty difficult. I suppose if you waited too long, he'll fly away and wait for you at the border of the map.
Funny to me how the F-22 gets into the thick of the fight, but the ‘more advanced’ Su-57 stays out of the AO, as if waiting to fire stand-off missiles from outside of your expected range
Heard people are struggling on some aces and here is a tip on what jet is recommended to use on the mission Mission 1:any jets that has 6aam or 8aam or 4aam Mission 2:any Mission 3:I recommend using a fast jet with qaam with flight distance,longer lock on and homing part equipped Mission 4:any jet will work Mission 5:any also not really that hard to get ur jet to be damaged just fly slow and let the ai jet or the bomber to damage you Mission 6:any jet will also work Mission 7:any jets will work but do not use any air to ground missiles u don’t want it to hit the tgt targets Mission 8:I recommend using jets that has pulse laser or the a10 or any jet that has air to ground missiles(ship missiles also note u don’t need to destroy everything just destroy the oil tanks) Mission 9:any fast jet cause u want to be as fast as u can as soon as u destroy a non Tgt that is on top of the clouds quickly fly down so u don’t get hit by the missile Mission 10:any jet will work just keep an eye out on the sams site Mission 11: any jets will also works too Mission 12:use jets that has 6aam,4aam or 8aam cause u don’t want to damage Stonehenge also u need to fly below it and get the a10 spawn too Mission 13:use a fast jet!it is super recommended on this mission if u don’t fly fast enough the icbm missile will fly away and u will fail and the ace will not spawn if u restart! Mission 14: either get a very fast aircraft or just any aircraft will work Mission 15:don’t really involve in anything Mission 16: any aircraft Mission 17: any aircraft will work too but I recommend using a jet with 6aam or 4aam or 8aam Mission 18: use a fast jet with either lagm or pulse laser and down all targets and arrive to the castle as fast as u can also shoot down mihaly too Mission 19:any aircraft that can easily take down the arsenal bird Well that’s all for every aces and I wish everyone can hunt down all the aces easily and get the mihaly skin for the x02
I CANNOT do mission 3, no matter how hard I try. There's always like 10 planes scattered and no possible way I can take them all down, even with QAAMs. SOS please....
@@andrewvanatta499 some targets on mission 3 your teammate will manage to shoot down either 1 or 2 of them so if u get lucky then u might be able to get it(oh and also I would suggest trying TLS on mission 3 as well)
Just a correction here, you do not need to down ALL the mig 21's in order to spawn JESTER, you only need to destroy all the red ground targets before engaging the migs.
For mission 11 I recommend using the SU-57’s Pulse lasers while flying through the marine platforms while destroying them to lure out Chasseur and Ibis at the same time
few flaws with this video so here is a better explanation for people who want to get all the ace skins if you got them to spawn another way please list it down below Mission 1 is correct
Mission 2 is slightly wrong you have to destroy all the TGT control tower at least that is how he spawned for me Mission 3 correct just keep a level head and if he does not appear just start over and try again Mission 4 Correct if you want a more in-depth as to who shot mother goose 1 down try only using machine guns to keep the UAVs off of him Mission 5 is correct at least to how i got him to pop up Mission 6 correct super easy to fly in the tunnel also if you did not know you can cross the return line just an fyi even the story says it's not for you lol Mission 7 is correct Mission 8 very wrong you just take out all OIL FACILITIES Mission 9 Correct Mission 10 correct and wrong but when he says you can't let the transport get damaged that is wrong damage is irreverent at least it was for me all you have to do is take the sams down very fast mission 11 planes 1 and 2 correct hint go for the closer base then swing wide out and fly through the platforms shooting the cores you get both of them at the same time as well as if any planes take off just chase them down and shoot them mission 12 planes 1 2 and 3 correct just fly under one of the guns and he should pop out,A10's spawn kinda far out just take them out while they are out of range and last just make sure you get everything make bombers and ground targets first then take fighters out while next wave of ground runners and bombers come Mission 13 correct this one is hard equip missiles with long range tracking and get a very fast plane at least this was the case for me mission 14 correct fly fast and get to the base just keep the pedal to the metal and dodge the spot lights Mission 15 for planes 1 and 2 correct it is covered in sams and turrets that shoot down your missiles so you may have to make multiple passes also if you want a special skin that is not an ace take down the Su-30 with only standard missiles not special Mission 16 correct Mission 17 correct Mission 18 correct and wrong take everything out ON THE WAY TO THE CASTLE not everything after you get to the castle at least this is how i got him to spawn Mission 19 for planes 1 and 2 Correct there you have it hope this helps some people out with how to get them all good luck again if you found another way to get them to spawn post down below
For Calamity in mission 19, as soon as you hit 17,000 fly due east of the space elevator/lighthouse and it'll be there. That negates the need for long range weapons/flirting with the danger of going outside the mission zone.
Brice Cooper, also, you need to have the plane to get the skin. I got every single ace, only to learn I didn’t get the skin because I had not owned the aircraft when I downed the ace.
@@zuxoh5612 What? I shot down several aces without having the aircraft and still got the skins. If what you said is true, none of my SU's would have their ace skins seeing as how I didn't unlock them until after I did my ace playthrough.
On Mission 11, the Rafale can actually be summoned more easily by taking out the supports of the rig instead of picking out the aircraft on the rig one by one, because then it takes out the planes as well.
Thanks for the info but correct me if I'm wrong as I think you forgot to mention that you can only get the aces to spawn in mission replay & not during the first story playthrough of each mission.

Also for Calamity, after you kill Tempest.. Head to the south part of the map as fast as you can.. You can caught up Calamity before he reached the red line. I use parts for acceleration and speed, and i caught him not far from the border.
Thanks for the guide. Read on Steam that you need to score 10k points before doing the mass driver run in mission 17. Also, the time limit for the Berkut ace to show up is 3 minutes. I managed to get to the base in less than 2 with the A-10, so my guess is that, as long as you can reach waypoint 2 in less than 1 minute, you're almos guaranteed to spawn the ace without flying at mach 2 through that canyon XD
For fleet destruction, to get the Rafale ace to spawn, I used the Su-57 and its pulse lasers to sweep the entire platform. Just slow down to just above stall speed and use your rudders to sweep from one end to the other. And it actually spawned to the east, not the west for me
Just a heads up. Calamity does appear inside the area of operations. Once you hit 17,000 points. Immediate chop to the shouth and he'll be inside the border (if you have the microwave radar special part it makes him stand out like a sore thumb). You dont have to bother with shooting him down outside the map unless you wait around after you hit 17,000
for the aces in mission 11 if u having trouble you can use lasers and the MG at the same time while u flight under and destroy the platforms to spawn the two aces at the same time
The last ace calamity actually spawns in the map but he tries escaping directly south, however unlike other aces who leave he sticks around just outside of the area border meaning you can take as long as you want to kill him
I just completed all of the ACES today ;w; This would have been so good lol Thanks for helping us out with your knowledge and keep sharing with this great community
@@linslins4860 yeah you can play the missions separately as long as you're on normal difficulty or higher No I don't use flight stick I can't afford that
Colorful Souls thank you. One more question. After the ace spawn and intercepted, do you need to complete mission? What if mission failed? Will it be unlocked? Thanks
Thanks for this vid, it helped a lot with the few I was having trouble with, finally got the last Aces a couple hours ago, now just want to get the remaining skins. There is one correction I noticed, on mission 19 Calamity doesn’t spawn off map anymore, I think they patched it, he spawns further southeast of the tower than Tempest does, can see him fading in and out of view on the radar. Also there are a couple times when standard controls make things much easier, like in mission 14 flying through the canyon at high speeds is so much easier with standard controls(tried it a few times with standard and expert to compare). In mission 8 after trying a bunch of different approaches the best one(for me at least) was strafing with machine guns at low altitude and standard controls makes it easier, then I cleaned up the last few with multi-target ground bombs(surprisingly I ended up destroying every ground target with this method, not just the oil tanks). Just use the parts to increase machine gun power and concentration. I had to restart from the checkpoint after the Arsenal Bird loses its shield in mission 19 and the Ace kills still counted. Can anyone confirm if that holds true for other missions? Like if you kill an Ace and then trigger a checkpoint after the kill, restarting from the checkpoint after the Ace kill doesn’t take it away? Hoping to see a Hard S Rank guide from you. That’s my next goal
I can confirm that is true. Last night I killed an Ace, got to another checkpoint, but then died and completed the mission. It still gave me the ace kill
Hi, First time player of this series, just wanted to Thank You for this video, you don't know how much it helped me not only to find out how to get the aces to spawn but to enjoy the games its self. Thanks again
This guide is so useful and it got real easy when I got the Su-57 with Pulse Lasers. Had so much trouble with Mantis, I failed twice just after I either flew over the mass driver or killed him. First time, I stalled out and did a nose dive. Second time, even though I saw my plane evade it, a missile from a SAM site got me
So mission 10 I have to fly around like a blind bat looking for SAMS on the radar, no damage to cargo plane BUT YET enemy SAMS lock onto the cargo plane miles away and through the clouds.....what gives?
Damage is irrelevant. Just gotta quickly take out all of the sam sites. The only challenge about it is plotting a route to each group in the fastest way possible.
Move from the left most side(mission start) to the right most side where the first 2 fighters spawn in. (stick closer to the border area and be loose, meaning dont stay right next to the transport) Thats what i did and took me 2 tries, i will say there is kind of a hint if you did it right when there is a long silence. I literally just flew in a horizontal circle on the side where the "ace" spawns waiting for him.
Like others mentioned before Ace 8/24 F-15E Gazelle you only have to blow up all the Gas Tanks, not the tanker ships, no sams, aa guns etc. Also important to know this only works in normal and above difficulty!
Since in we don’t know the time limit in Mission 14, just try to fly as fast as possible as said in the video. I recommend using standard controls so you can speedrun to the area as possible.
Thanks mate done it 3 times in a row and I was thinking maybe it’s an airfield take off where you can control straight away how low you are (you spawn in higher than 200m) but it’s because I took the shortcuts
Small note about Gazelle (Pipeline Destruction). You only need to destroy the oil facilities (oil tanks, facilities, chimneys, and tanker ships) before the storm rolls in. You can ignore the AA and SAMs. Figured I'd let you guys know.
Yeah, it's the Mirage from Les Chevaliers Du Ciel, it was also a DLC skin in Ace Combat 6. Too bad I can't find a good copy of the movie with English subtitles, that's literally the French Top Gun movie.
@@Crater7928 They even called it that on the advertising, but it's not a good film story-wise, with some questionable scenes. The scenes with the jets, though, are pretty good, and are the sole reason people would watch it in 2019. They're up on youtube now, though.
The YF-23 Lynx might be a reference to the TAC name of the player character in Sky Crawlers Innocent Aces, another game by Project Aces and the closest thing we’ve got to Ace Combat WWII.
@@r4v3n_random36at the end of the cutscenes it show you red light which mean that's either huginn or muninn decided to become sentient (means that the ai have their own personality and goals) which mean it will destroy all human because they find that human is the problem of all war
Ace 16: just the real silos not all, it saves a LOT of time and for hard the locations change (bottom half paragraph for It) (the real ones are the 1st one Infront of your spawn, 2nd middle of the map, 3rd, 4th, and 5th are the 3 at the top of the map) there in a pattern is like a backwards 7 just the 3rd one before the corner is fake. Hard: If playing on hard the location change, the ones that didn't change are the start and end of the backwards 7 (spawn silo and the top right one) the new ones are the 3 shaped like a triangle on the left above the spawn silo. So you r pattern for the best time would be spawn, middle, bottom left, one above the bottom left them the top right
F2A Bogen: Remember you need to allow your ground forces to push far enough for AEGIS ASHORE to appear. One time I focus too much on fleets and aircrafts so my ground forces didn't push forward before time ends. I'm not sure if you can destroy it without being lit up (such as by using MGs or other non-lock-on weapons).
Also make sure you take out all radar towers on the way to the air strip then once at the air strip the minute the control tower is targetable destroy it ASAP, then when the drone cut scene plays look down to the runway coming out of one of the hangers will be jester
Finally got the achievement for taking down all aces. Did it on Ace difficulty too. Started several months ago and slowly worked my way through. Only had trouble getting Comet to spawn. Only took me so long because I was mostly playing other games instead lol. I'm so glad to be free of such a constraint finally lol. Last thing on my list is S rank in all missions.
I've never screamed so bad at a game trying to get the f 22 ace, hes hard but he flys into the blast zone from the arsenal bird and it's impossible to shoot him down like that and hes invincible to those explosions
Mission 3 update - this has changed and needs to be done in less than 80 seconds now (+18:40 remaining). I personally found it a lot easier to use the F-14D with LAAM
Loved the video you made explaining the history, and I just stumbled on this while achievement hunting. Great job in both videos, thanks for making them!
I'll add that If you're attempting to spawn #4, you've got to take the long way to the lighthouse, not the shortcut. I tried getting Ronin to spawn about 3 different times taking the most risky route to no avail, until i tried taking the long route.
For Mission 3 F-16, just take a Mig-31 Foxhound with LRAAM (Long-Range Air-to-Air Missile), I one hit each of the targets from far away with plenty of time to spare, whereas I had to try over and over using the Su-57 pulse lasers.
Correction for the Su-57 Calamity: Once you reach the score of 17000 said in the video he will appear, however the location of his appearance is in the South East quadrant of the map. You have to go there immediately after you reach the score or else he will go to the edge making him harder to kill.
I played the campaign of this recently. Really liked it. Only other one I played was Belkan war on ps2. Had to delete it to make room. Might reinstall as some point
This was my first Ace combat game. I personally liked the fact that the aces were hard to make spawn. The disappointment came with the difficulty of killing them, even in “ace” mode I managed to get them all like in 7/8hours of playing.
Ethan Kovatsh depends on player style I found being able to engage faster with LAAM’s worked for me yet I can see how QAAM’s can work well too.its part of gameplay variety where there are play style for more aggressive players and tactical players
I tried LAAM’s, too before. But it took me too long twice like 2-3 seconds so I just went with QAAM's in the end and made it in like 50 seconds or something. F22A is just too op Dx
Ethan Kovatsh my problem I was always killing planes with two MSL so I need to supplement with a special weapon that did enough damage and could reload decently fast LAAM’s filled that role for me plus since they lock on from farther away I could get in the fight faster
Mission 8: used the Mig 21 with the mounted machine guns in tandem with regular, all gun upgrade parts, especially the auto-tracking one. Slow down and sweep side to side using the rudders. 💥💥💥💥💥 It’s efficient AND you can still dodge missles, unlike in the A 10 Thunderbolt.
For mission 3 you don't have to do it in 90 seconds. Just do it before the arsenal bird shows up and you guys will be ok, also do it on normal so its quicker.
Was playing recently; for mission 3 I think they banned the use pulse laser munition entirely for the ace to show up. What I did for it was the 4AAM on the X-02 and used dumb luck for the most part. It may take a several tries but you’ll get it eventually.
I watched this vid over the span of 3 days hunting them down on hard mode (i didnt ulock the other one yet) i work a shitty 9-5 and was excited to go home and trace em down. this gave me so much joy. Thank you bro. im 20 feelin like a 50 yo writing this hahahaha

Clarufications:
For Ace 2 Jester you only need to destroy the TGT CONTROL TOWER.
F-15E Gazelle: You only need to destroy all OIL FACILITIES.
Do you unlock that plane or just the skin??
@@yonismo4098 Only Skin, you need to unlock the plane in the Aircraft, (if you do it after you successfully shot down an Ace you still get the skin.
Also the one where u have to take damage the threshold is 51% not 75%
The best way to wipe all oil facilities in Mission 8 is equip and use the SFFS bomb. Aim for the gas tanks as much as you can. I used the Su-34 to get it. On Ace difficulty too!
I’ve tried just the Control tower, it didn’t seem to work.
Heads up for mission 8, you don’t have to destroy everything for the ace, you just have to destroy all the oil tanks. Other than that great video!
Thanks for the advice.
Make sense because it looks *impossible* to destroy everything in harder difficulty.
@@ServantBerserkerZero Most every "oil" target will chain explode to to everything around it. I've found the easiest way to complete it is with 4AGM (the 8s are tricky as you tend to waste missiles). The multi target bombs on the F-22 and SOD on the F-35 are pretty good too.
Actually, you have to destroy all the TGTs labelled, "OIL FACILITY".

so... the challenging part of those aces is to make them appear not take them down.... thats disappointing
I wish the requirements to get those aces to appear were like those in Ace Combat 04 where you had to fly to a certain location.
How fun!!!
they are quite fun to dogfight on ace difficulty dude
@@dirtysanchez8872 I found the troll
To be fair they never were really hard to take down.
Brotip: for the mission at 7:30 get the LACM. Besides the large explosive range, the LACM is a ground-hugger and can fly above terrain automatically as long as it's not too steep.
What’s the abbreviation stand for?
@@Just_Ducky47 land attack cruise missile
whats the difference between LACM and LASM?
@@sidikriders3007 “Land Attack Cruise Missile” and “Long-range Anti-Ship Missile”; technically one is for nailing tough ground targets/multiple targets grouped together, and the other is for sinking ships. The only significant difference in game tho is the LACM’s huge blast range and the LASM’s nonexistent small ass circle of a blast range
@daniyardilimulati8420 Yup. The LASM punches a hole in the ship's armor, then explodes. The blast wave inside of a ship causes massive pressure waves that blow the deck to pieces. Watch closely or in replay slow motion and you'll see the explosion blasting straight up from the deck. So. Frigging. Cool.
For Mission 3, I would recommend using the F-14 with LAAM. Cleared the first wave less than 30 seconds.
I did it with saam neither plsl nor laam worked
I used the YF-23 with HVAA. They have insane range and speed so unless they are turning it basically a guaranteed sniper kill. Not very good for closer up though so I used normie missiles for that. Got it with 15 sec left to spare.
Спасибо за совет!)
I use a SU-35S with LAAM, very easy!!!!
Tthanks I'll try that, I managed to get it within .99 seconds with the pulse lasers but it didn't spawn in. I hope this'll work
This has got to be the most baffling requirements for ace pilots in Ace Combat ever
Tell me about it, just imagine if the game didn’t give any hints on the assault records
I find it to be a blast. The challenges are fun and interesting to do.
Its the P.T. of Ace Combat Games
“Interesting” “fun”....
@@vice88 Yeah? What of it?
how to trigger(heh) Kitten's spawn:

Lmao, true
I mean there's one way to train for the final mission
Hahaha
Calamity and Tempest are backwards, for those worried about finding the former. The former spawns at 17k points then flees I think. So if you are quick to hunt him down he won't be so far out.
This video was so helpful! I can't wait to tell my son about it!

That first ace is Vietnamese for Hoàng Xuân Tài. his name appeared on the roll credits too. And there is easter egg about that Ace from Vietnam War(ace pilot of Vietcong). Ace Combat 7 involved Vietnamese team in the development.

> Jester
> MiG-29A
LMAO I suddenly remember TopGun's "MIGS" hahaha
God Bless the F5, am I right?
Close..Except that Top Gun's MiG simulators were actually A-4 Skyhawks, (as flown by JESTER & VIPER) and black-painted F-5's for the 'real' ones..NOT an actual MiG-29 Fulcrum.
But, yeah..it's still a nice little nod to Jester & Top Gun anyway!
'Jester' in a real MiG..
And with Top-Gun 2 on the way, who knows what new characters will make their debut..to later show up in AC8!?
How do you complete that one? I can't destroy all of the MiGs etc to spawn it and I'm on normal! It's so hard!
@@leodavis4242
G'day Leo,
If it's JESTER in the MiG-29 Lastoshka/Fulcrum (in Mission 2) that your having trouble with, it's because your looking in the wrong place..
And the Migs in the airspace over the base, are just 'extra gifts' for you..but they have no bearing on Jester's appearance.
You can engage, or ignore them, as you see fit, or as your skills detirmine, to keep a few off your back..but they are insignificant here.
Jester starts off on the GROUND, after you destroy the base!
Provided you've met the requirements.
Just destroy all the games white targets, (along with all the red TGT radar vehicles, except for the very last TGT radar vehicle, nearest the base control tower)..
Then, once your ready, (you must be quick here, its the only challenging part of the mission, because all these high value targets only last about 20secs or so)..and if you don't get them all, you don't get another chance..so, when ready, then destroy it too!
A minor cut scene will display juicy new targets at the base!
Now, QUICKLY Destroy the Control Tower, and all 3 C-17 Globemaster transports on the ground!
(WARNING, one of the C-17's has a Helios warhead in it, that detonates when you destroy the C-17..don't be too close to them ( like a gun run, for example) when you kill them, stand off as best you can, and use missiles..just know you dont have much time to be fussy with your approaches either..
I recall you only get approx 5 secs per target or so..
The cut scene with the container drones launching WILL interupt you, and all base/ground targets then disappear..(including the migs, if i remember correctly) except JESTER, taxiing out, to come up and meet you..
He's taxiing out of a shelter, just a bit behind the base's main hangers, where you just destroyed the 3 C-17 Globemasters..the one with the Helios warhead in it.
You can't miss him, if your watching your radar right after the cut scene finishes, (and BEFORE you go chasing any of the container drones!)..just ignore them completely until you get JESTER.
He's literally the only other speck on your radar at that point..as i mentioned, ALL other ground targets dissapear entirely then.
And if your quick, you can even nail him on the ground, before he even gets fully airborne..if you just want the bonus, without the fight..
Now you know!
Enjoy owning him mate, however you choose to do it..
See you back on the flightline, nugget.
Oh, and a bit of trivia for you, re: the MiG-29.
The Russians originally named it 'Lastoshka' which means 'little Swallow' after the small, swift little birds..that have a huge tendency to shit all over everything!
The Nato designations, (like Fulcrum, Hind, Foxbat etc)..are simply assigned by computer.
@@bjlewis5431 thanks I'll try it now.
Note on clamity SU57 ace 24.
After obtaining 17K points with more than 3 minute left and Arsenal bird missle comes, i found him heading to combat, it seem if you waited a bit longer he will hang around the Borders but i did killed him at C4
I spent 30 minutes trying to kill one ace.
I forgot I was on easy mode.
CURB YOUR MEME PLAYS IN BACKGROUND
Me to
Haha, I was blaming the game for being so bugged. Read in reddit that they spawn in normal and got every single one in 2 hours xd
Pierce God yeah. I’ve been through the regret of going on easy mode. I believe I tried to get the Su-57 Ace and forgot I was on easy mode, (and then I didn’t try to go back for it for some reason). And I think I made the same mistake of going on easy mode and trying to get the MiG-29A Fulcrum Ace. Also, I got the Axeman Ace by mistake. Same with the Su-37 Terminator Serpent.
what difficulty you put in
You can find Calamity in mission 19 early enough if you fly to the clouds in the south part of the map. Once you spawn him with 17000 points, he'll fly through the heavy clouds, which makes locking onto him pretty difficult.
I suppose if you waited too long, he'll fly away and wait for you at the border of the map.
He’s smart. He knows the the plane with three sins kills aces.
Funny to me how the F-22 gets into the thick of the fight, but the ‘more advanced’ Su-57 stays out of the AO, as if waiting to fire stand-off missiles from outside of your expected range
@@paulsd9255 ?
Do you have to kill them within that first part of the mission? Or can you kill them after the next part starts?
Heard people are struggling on some aces and here is a tip on what jet is recommended to use on the mission
Mission 1:any jets that has 6aam or 8aam or 4aam
Mission 2:any
Mission 3:I recommend using a fast jet with qaam with flight distance,longer lock on and homing part equipped
Mission 4:any jet will work
Mission 5:any also not really that hard to get ur jet to be damaged just fly slow and let the ai jet or the bomber to damage you
Mission 6:any jet will also work
Mission 7:any jets will work but do not use any air to ground missiles u don’t want it to hit the tgt targets
Mission 8:I recommend using jets that has pulse laser or the a10 or any jet that has air to ground missiles(ship missiles also note u don’t need to destroy everything just destroy the oil tanks)
Mission 9:any fast jet cause u want to be as fast as u can as soon as u destroy a non Tgt that is on top of the clouds quickly fly down so u don’t get hit by the missile
Mission 10:any jet will work just keep an eye out on the sams site
Mission 11: any jets will also works too
Mission 12:use jets that has 6aam,4aam or 8aam cause u don’t want to damage Stonehenge also u need to fly below it and get the a10 spawn too
Mission 13:use a fast jet!it is super recommended on this mission if u don’t fly fast enough the icbm missile will fly away and u will fail and the ace will not spawn if u restart!
Mission 14: either get a very fast aircraft or just any aircraft will work
Mission 15:don’t really involve in anything
Mission 16: any aircraft
Mission 17: any aircraft will work too but I recommend using a jet with 6aam or 4aam or 8aam
Mission 18: use a fast jet with either lagm or pulse laser and down all targets and arrive to the castle as fast as u can also shoot down mihaly too
Mission 19:any aircraft that can easily take down the arsenal bird
Well that’s all for every aces and I wish everyone can hunt down all the aces easily and get the mihaly skin for the x02
I CANNOT do mission 3, no matter how hard I try. There's always like 10 planes scattered and no possible way I can take them all down, even with QAAMs. SOS please....
Andrew VanAtta Same i tried so many times
I was stuck on mission 18 thank you so much
@@andrewvanatta499 some targets on mission 3 your teammate will manage to shoot down either 1 or 2 of them so if u get lucky then u might be able to get it(oh and also I would suggest trying TLS on mission 3 as well)
@@Ridiona oh sorry for not correcting my comment, I am now having trouble with mission 13
Just a correction here, you do not need to down ALL the mig 21's in order to spawn JESTER, you only need to destroy all the red ground targets before engaging the migs.
You only have to destroy the control tower marked TGT to spawn Jester.
For mission 11 I recommend using the SU-57’s Pulse lasers while flying through the marine platforms while destroying them to lure out Chasseur and Ibis at the same time
I use the Darkstar with lasers.
Can reach any point on the map within moments.
@@Viking_6_3
You realize the darkstar is nor even a year old? 😂
few flaws with this video so here is a better explanation for people who want to get all the ace skins
if you got them to spawn another way please list it down below
Mission 1 is correct
Mission 2 is slightly wrong you have to destroy all the TGT control tower at least that is how he spawned for me
Mission 3 correct just keep a level head and if he does not appear just start over and try again
Mission 4 Correct if you want a more in-depth as to who shot mother goose 1 down try only using machine guns to keep the UAVs off of him
Mission 5 is correct at least to how i got him to pop up
Mission 6 correct super easy to fly in the tunnel also if you did not know you can cross the return line just an fyi even the story says it's not for you lol
Mission 7 is correct
Mission 8 very wrong you just take out all OIL FACILITIES
Mission 9 Correct
Mission 10 correct and wrong but when he says you can't let the transport get damaged that is wrong damage is irreverent at least it was for me all you have to do is take the sams down very fast
mission 11 planes 1 and 2 correct hint go for the closer base then swing wide out and fly through the platforms shooting the cores you get both of them at the same time as well as if any planes take off just chase them down and shoot them
mission 12 planes 1 2 and 3 correct just fly under one of the guns and he should pop out,A10's spawn kinda far out just take them out while they are out of range and last just make sure you get everything make bombers and ground targets first then take fighters out while next wave of ground runners and bombers come
Mission 13 correct this one is hard equip missiles with long range tracking and get a very fast plane at least this was the case for me
mission 14 correct fly fast and get to the base just keep the pedal to the metal and dodge the spot lights
Mission 15 for planes 1 and 2 correct it is covered in sams and turrets that shoot down your missiles so you may have to make multiple passes also if you want a special skin that is not an ace take down the Su-30 with only standard missiles not special
Mission 16 correct
Mission 17 correct
Mission 18 correct and wrong take everything out ON THE WAY TO THE CASTLE not everything after you get to the castle at least this is how i got him to spawn
Mission 19 for planes 1 and 2 Correct
there you have it hope this helps some people out with how to get them all good luck again if you found another way to get them to spawn post down below
Thanks for the help needed some more minior details.
For Calamity in mission 19, as soon as you hit 17,000 fly due east of the space elevator/lighthouse and it'll be there. That negates the need for long range weapons/flirting with the danger of going outside the mission zone.
Brice Cooper, also, you need to have the plane to get the skin. I got every single ace, only to learn I didn’t get the skin because I had not owned the aircraft when I downed the ace.
Thank you for the tips
@@zuxoh5612 What? I shot down several aces without having the aircraft and still got the skins. If what you said is true, none of my SU's would have their ace skins seeing as how I didn't unlock them until after I did my ace playthrough.
On Mission 11, the Rafale can actually be summoned more easily by taking out the supports of the rig instead of picking out the aircraft on the rig one by one, because then it takes out the planes as well.
mig 21 ace dead in 3 second
I am actually using that skin when I am going for gun-Only runs in campaign.
big deal?
take mister x out in less than a minute on ace
It’s kinda comedic when you think “oh man this is a really dangerous guy” and then a second later he goes splat.
What mecha is your pfp? It looks familiar.
IBIS sometimes spawns on the west side of the map.
You only need take care of oil facilities to spawn Gazelle
Thanks for the info but correct me if I'm wrong as I think you forgot to mention that you can only get the aces to spawn in mission replay & not during the first story playthrough of each mission.
That will explain why I'm banging my head against a brick wall...
THANK YOU!!!!! I restarted the first Mission 5 times now and im still wondering why the fuck the ace doesn't spawn! Thanks man!
That explains a lot. Thank you very much!

I can't overstate how helpful this video was, thank you so much for posting it
Also for Calamity, after you kill Tempest.. Head to the south part of the map as fast as you can.. You can caught up Calamity before he reached the red line. I use parts for acceleration and speed, and i caught him not far from the border.
Wat difficulty were u on
Thanks for the guide. Read on Steam that you need to score 10k points before doing the mass driver run in mission 17.
Also, the time limit for the Berkut ace to show up is 3 minutes. I managed to get to the base in less than 2 with the A-10, so my guess is that, as long as you can reach waypoint 2 in less than 1 minute, you're almos guaranteed to spawn the ace without flying at mach 2 through that canyon XD
There's one thing I'd like to point out, in the third mission, you can still find the ace even if it takes 60 seconds, or 57 in my case.
Well yeah, 60 is less than 90...
For fleet destruction, to get the Rafale ace to spawn, I used the Su-57 and its pulse lasers to sweep the entire platform. Just slow down to just above stall speed and use your rudders to sweep from one end to the other. And it actually spawned to the east, not the west for me
Just a heads up. Calamity does appear inside the area of operations. Once you hit 17,000 points. Immediate chop to the shouth and he'll be inside the border (if you have the microwave radar special part it makes him stand out like a sore thumb). You dont have to bother with shooting him down outside the map unless you wait around after you hit 17,000
That YF-23 is so badass.
Have you looked up its history? It's badass in our world too.
you are a godsend. I have been having a hard time unlocking the F-35c skin
Andrew hoang Ace Combat Fan is a godsend to the Erusean people...
for the aces in mission 11 if u having trouble you can use lasers and the MG at the same time while u flight under and destroy the platforms to spawn the two aces at the same time
7:59 SAM map. You're welcome :)
The last ace calamity actually spawns in the map but he tries escaping directly south, however unlike other aces who leave he sticks around just outside of the area border meaning you can take as long as you want to kill him
I just completed all of the ACES today ;w;
This would have been so good lol
Thanks for helping us out with your knowledge and keep sharing with this great community
Same man, I got mine just a few hours ago lol
Hello, we unlock in free mission? And do you use flight stick? Thanks
@@linslins4860 yeah you can play the missions separately as long as you're on normal difficulty or higher
No I don't use flight stick I can't afford that
Colorful Souls thank you. One more question. After the ace spawn and intercepted, do you need to complete mission? What if mission failed? Will it be unlocked? Thanks
@@linslins4860 I'm actually not exactly sure since I always completed the mission to get flight time for the platinum trophy so I'd say complete it
Thanks for this vid, it helped a lot with the few I was having trouble with, finally got the last Aces a couple hours ago, now just want to get the remaining skins. There is one correction I noticed, on mission 19 Calamity doesn’t spawn off map anymore, I think they patched it, he spawns further southeast of the tower than Tempest does, can see him fading in and out of view on the radar. Also there are a couple times when standard controls make things much easier, like in mission 14 flying through the canyon at high speeds is so much easier with standard controls(tried it a few times with standard and expert to compare). In mission 8 after trying a bunch of different approaches the best one(for me at least) was strafing with machine guns at low altitude and standard controls makes it easier, then I cleaned up the last few with multi-target ground bombs(surprisingly I ended up destroying every ground target with this method, not just the oil tanks). Just use the parts to increase machine gun power and concentration.
I had to restart from the checkpoint after the Arsenal Bird loses its shield in mission 19 and the Ace kills still counted. Can anyone confirm if that holds true for other missions? Like if you kill an Ace and then trigger a checkpoint after the kill, restarting from the checkpoint after the Ace kill doesn’t take it away?
Hoping to see a Hard S Rank guide from you. That’s my next goal
I can confirm that is true. Last night I killed an Ace, got to another checkpoint, but then died and completed the mission. It still gave me the ace kill
The mission 14 ace is a nightmare to spawn lol
Dude you can do it in 2 minutes too not 90 secs. I have tried it. Its been 2 years though lol u probably figured that out😂😂
@@frag8713 spawned him today. Managed to get to the base in less than 2 minutes.
Also, you have 3 minutes to get to the base and the ace spawn.
Hi, First time player of this series, just wanted to Thank You for this video, you don't know how much it helped me not only to find out how to get the aces to spawn but to enjoy the games its self. Thanks again
Thank you so much for this tutorial! This helped me a lot find all the aces and get the achievement I can flex!
Thanks for the guide. now i finally have all special skins.
I just realized that Ronin’s skin is Rapier 6’s skin from AC 4
One thing i hate. All the challenge requirements for aces to spawn are generally harder than shooting down the ace
This guide is so useful and it got real easy when I got the Su-57 with Pulse Lasers. Had so much trouble with Mantis, I failed twice just after I either flew over the mass driver or killed him. First time, I stalled out and did a nose dive. Second time, even though I saw my plane evade it, a missile from a SAM site got me
Thanks for all the help man. Really appreciate you.
For me the 24th ace calamity spawned south but not outside the zone, he was hiding inside clouds.
yeah me too
I found him on a crash course for the space elevator and was so confused.
i Found him out side the Combat zone my missels barely reached him
So mission 10 I have to fly around like a blind bat looking for SAMS on the radar, no damage to cargo plane BUT YET enemy SAMS lock onto the cargo plane miles away and through the clouds.....what gives?
Damage is irrelevant. Just gotta quickly take out all of the sam sites. The only challenge about it is plotting a route to each group in the fastest way possible.
Move from the left most side(mission start) to the right most side where the first 2 fighters spawn in. (stick closer to the border area and be loose, meaning dont stay right next to the transport) Thats what i did and took me 2 tries, i will say there is kind of a hint if you did it right when there is a long silence. I literally just flew in a horizontal circle on the side where the "ace" spawns waiting for him.
There are nine sites for a total of like like 10 sams a few aas and a rsdar vehicle
just move your camera and take a peek to your cargo plane after you destroy a sam site and track next sam sites by following the missiles trail
Just follow the missile trail. You'll find it quickly like that.
This game gives me real anxiety flying through storm clouds, it looks so real. 😂
its ok :3 project wingmans kind of blew me away recently with their clouds
Like others mentioned before Ace 8/24 F-15E Gazelle you only have to blow up all the Gas Tanks, not the tanker ships, no sams, aa guns etc. Also important to know this only works in normal and above difficulty!
Since in we don’t know the time limit in Mission 14, just try to fly as fast as possible as said in the video. I recommend using standard controls so you can speedrun to the area as possible.
Mission 4- Ronin. Either you can't take any short cuts or you can't go above the limit until the cut scene.
Thank you so much, now I understand why I can't trigger this ace
ah thanks, was wondering why it wasnt working
Thanks mate done it 3 times in a row and I was thinking maybe it’s an airfield take off where you can control straight away how low you are (you spawn in higher than 200m) but it’s because I took the shortcuts
Small note about Gazelle (Pipeline Destruction). You only need to destroy the oil facilities (oil tanks, facilities, chimneys, and tanker ships) before the storm rolls in. You can ignore the AA and SAMs. Figured I'd let you guys know.
wait isnt that Mirage 2000 from that French fighter movie?
Yes. It's a shame the film was all over the place and couldn't keep a coherent plot together, though.
Yeah, it's the Mirage from Les Chevaliers Du Ciel, it was also a DLC skin in Ace Combat 6. Too bad I can't find a good copy of the movie with English subtitles, that's literally the French Top Gun movie.
@@Crater7928 They even called it that on the advertising, but it's not a good film story-wise, with some questionable scenes. The scenes with the jets, though, are pretty good, and are the sole reason people would watch it in 2019. They're up on youtube now, though.
@Big Random actually that skin was not in AH bud i owned all DLC for AH you only get Idolm@ster skin for it in AH
@@vincere_ Yep. It's perfectly shot but yeah it's really not a good movie at all.

Pro tip for mission 3:
Just get an F14D with long range missiles
You can get all of them in a minute flat
The YF-23 Lynx might be a reference to the TAC name of the player character in Sky Crawlers Innocent Aces, another game by Project Aces and the closest thing we’ve got to Ace Combat WWII.

@@awacsbandog658 I will, I will kill all enemy aces and get their dossier.
This F-16C ace has proven the hardest so far, I’ve retried the mission about 10 times now trying to get it right
For me, i did it, but it just won't spawn
@@GreatValueMapleSyrupmake sure ur difficulty is on normal or higher difficulty they won’t spawn on easy
Ace 16: just the real silos not all, it saves a LOT of time and for hard the locations change (bottom half paragraph for It) (the real ones are the 1st one Infront of your spawn, 2nd middle of the map, 3rd, 4th, and 5th are the 3 at the top of the map) there in a pattern is like a backwards 7 just the 3rd one before the corner is fake.
Hard: If playing on hard the location change, the ones that didn't change are the start and end of the backwards 7 (spawn silo and the top right one) the new ones are the 3 shaped like a triangle on the left above the spawn silo. So you r pattern for the best time would be spawn, middle, bottom left, one above the bottom left them the top right
F2A Bogen: Remember you need to allow your ground forces to push far enough for AEGIS ASHORE to appear. One time I focus too much on fleets and aircrafts so my ground forces didn't push forward before time ends. I'm not sure if you can destroy it without being lit up (such as by using MGs or other non-lock-on weapons).
Clutch
Use SFFS or UGBs.
awesome thanx! been having a hard time finding some of these. really disappointed with AC7 customization. think they dropped the ball on that one
On Mission 2 you don't have to destroy all the targets. All you have to do is destroy the control tower to spawn Jester.
RangerHunter it’s not spawning...what do I do?
CHRIS B make sure you completed the campaign first. As you can only spawn the Aces thru mission replay on normal or higher difficulty.
Also make sure you take out all radar towers on the way to the air strip then once at the air strip the minute the control tower is targetable destroy it ASAP, then when the drone cut scene plays look down to the runway coming out of one of the hangers will be jester
Thank you for the video! I haven't played AC In a while and i forgot all about the Aces! I'll be looking forward to taking them down!
Finally got the achievement for taking down all aces. Did it on Ace difficulty too. Started several months ago and slowly worked my way through. Only had trouble getting Comet to spawn. Only took me so long because I was mostly playing other games instead lol.
I'm so glad to be free of such a constraint finally lol. Last thing on my list is S rank in all missions.
I've never screamed so bad at a game trying to get the f 22 ace, hes hard but he flys into the blast zone from the arsenal bird and it's impossible to shoot him down like that and hes invincible to those explosions
Best way to shoot him down: PLSL with the Su-57.
The best weapon to take on aircraft in this game. You can reach targets up to 5 km away.
0:16 at first i though it was Cipher, damn that scared me to hell
You're not alone. XD
I thought the same until i noticed an additional paint near cockpit.
That's ISAF/Mobius 1 F-15C skin from AC4.
@@LynSain And the all of the facing sides of the fins were blue.
"Yo buddy, you still alive?"
Mission 3 update - this has changed and needs to be done in less than 80 seconds now (+18:40 remaining). I personally found it a lot easier to use the F-14D with LAAM
I did it in 85 seconds with 18:35 left on timer and still got the plane to spawn
Loved the video you made explaining the history, and I just stumbled on this while achievement hunting. Great job in both videos, thanks for making them!
I personally recommend for Mission 3 F-16 bring some LAAMs, also select Rafale aircraft
Lets goo!! Thank you :)
I have to say, some of these skins look really, really good.
Picked any favorites?
That MiG-29 is pretty great. Love the F-16 as well.
A little disappointed that the last scheme for the YF-23 is the zebra stripes. Not a big fan of that one.
@@majormissile5596 You can get a all black skin from playing multiplayer.
@@PorterB92 I know, I already have it. Just that I would have liked a more exciting scheme.
I'll add that If you're attempting to spawn #4, you've got to take the long way to the lighthouse, not the shortcut. I tried getting Ronin to spawn about 3 different times taking the most risky route to no avail, until i tried taking the long route.
I think he meant under 200 meters altitude. Not 200 meters distance.
I took shortcut and flew under 100 i was 70 -100 altitude but he didnt spawn i guess you have to take a ng route
For Mission 3 F-16, just take a Mig-31 Foxhound with LRAAM (Long-Range Air-to-Air Missile), I one hit each of the targets from far away with plenty of time to spare, whereas I had to try over and over using the Su-57 pulse lasers.
Thanks a lot ace combat fan! This guide helped me very much.
Ace # 8 Gazelle
You do not have to destroy everything in the 1st part of the mission, you only have to destroy all the oil tanks before time runs out.
Correction for the Su-57 Calamity:
Once you reach the score of 17000 said in the video he will appear, however the location of his appearance is in the South East quadrant of the map. You have to go there immediately after you reach the score or else he will go to the edge making him harder to kill.
Correction for F-15C Fang in mission 5: You actually have to only take 51% damage or more.
I did all the requirements and the ace doesn't spawn
@@lennox6659same as me
I'm going to do at mission 11 as you did to get two aces😊
I played the campaign of this recently. Really liked it. Only other one I played was Belkan war on ps2.
Had to delete it to make room. Might reinstall as some point
This was my first Ace combat game. I personally liked the fact that the aces were hard to make spawn. The disappointment came with the difficulty of killing them, even in “ace” mode I managed to get them all like in 7/8hours of playing.
That Mig 29 xD
As one Ace to another, it feels dirty to shoot him before he can get off the ground
For mission 3 i found LAAM’s to be a huge help
QAAM’s worked for me way better lmao
Ethan Kovatsh depends on player style I found being able to engage faster with LAAM’s worked for me yet I can see how QAAM’s can work well too.its part of gameplay variety where there are play style for more aggressive players and tactical players
I tried LAAM’s, too before. But it took me too long twice like 2-3 seconds so I just went with QAAM's in the end and made it in like 50 seconds or something. F22A is just too op Dx
Did you go with all rocket parts and just firing the LAAM's from the center of their locations at them? Dx
Ethan Kovatsh my problem I was always killing planes with two MSL so I need to supplement with a special weapon that did enough damage and could reload decently fast LAAM’s filled that role for me plus since they lock on from farther away I could get in the fight faster
Just finished getting them. Had to watch this for 2 days while playing lol. Thanks
Mission 8: used the Mig 21 with the mounted machine guns in tandem with regular, all gun upgrade parts, especially the auto-tracking one. Slow down and sweep side to side using the rudders. 💥💥💥💥💥
It’s efficient AND you can still dodge missles, unlike in the A 10 Thunderbolt.
It took me a day just to even get half of the aces DONE.
it's an insult that this trophy is only silver
For mission 3 you don't have to do it in 90 seconds. Just do it before the arsenal bird shows up and you guys will be ok, also do it on normal so its quicker.
Not true
@@Coldwater-sw6mewhat do you do, i’ve literally been going at this for an hour and i still cant
Thank you! I did it two weeks ago in a very short time!
Brilliant video, thank you mate! Will try this tonight when i get home from work!
Is there by any chance you can do a mission playthrough on Ace difficulty please
the SU57 didn't appear outside the map in my case. played the mission twice and it was always just a little south-east of the space elevator. try it!
@Ace Combat Fan: Great guide. Will you be doing an Easter Eggs video? There are so many good references to previous games in Ace Combat 7.
Was playing recently; for mission 3 I think they banned the use pulse laser munition entirely for the ace to show up. What I did for it was the 4AAM on the X-02 and used dumb luck for the most part. It may take a several tries but you’ll get it eventually.
I watched this vid over the span of 3 days hunting them down on hard mode (i didnt ulock the other one yet) i work a shitty 9-5 and was excited to go home and trace em down. this gave me so much joy. Thank you bro. im 20 feelin like a 50 yo writing this hahahaha
