+Last chance to grab those eyes+
Take out your Striker for this area. You may think that the Novistadors are
endless, but there are only so many. Run up to the statue and turn to the
bottomless space, shoot down the insects in the air; if you need eyes really
bad to finish off your lamp, then perhaps wait til they fly over ground. Stay
around this statue, stand by the wall, and look up and around for all the
bugs in the area. When you think it's clear, run up the ramp and all the way
into the rock wall. Look up and around for incoming hostiles. Grab the ammo and
then run along the walkway up here, avoiding entering the small rooms. Run all
the around from either side and enter the room on the opposite side of the
cavern; keep a sharp eye out for bugs and items.
*The difficulty lessens on the PS2 version either way.*
Inside, press the button, grab the herb, and come out; either the bugs were
inside the cave before you went in, or they will swarm the exit once you press
the button (I've seen both). Now walk the other way around to the other room.
Grab the herb, press the button, and turn around for a guaranteed fight. This
fight is nasty no matter what. The bugs tend to land outside and then rush
inside while more swarm in from the sky. The ground ones are top priority, but
try to hit both at the same time; a grenade might help here. Anyway, now that
the path is open, run to the door and go through. The bugs will not enter the
tunnel, and you can use this to your advantage if you need more eyes.
Simple piston running here, so be fast about it. When you reach the
slope, throw the lever on the wall, go to the safe spot you just created, and
then pass the last pistons. Go to the bed for the last crown piece, and exit.
