The Outmanned But Not Out-Gungan-ed mission in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga recreates the iconic Battle of Naboo with classic humor and tactical gameplay. Players must defend the Gungan army against endless waves of Trade Federation droids while balancing main story goals and hidden side tasks. Understanding the level mechanics helps completionists earn full rewards and secure a 100% completion rate.
Main Story Objectives and Phase Breakdown
The stage begins with players loading Gungan catapults with energy boomas to hold back the initial droid invasion force. Soon after, players must defend fambaa shields against invading battle droids attacking the camp perimeter. Rebuilding destroyed equipment allows the Gungan army to push forward into the final artillery phase.
During the final stage, players control a powerful booma launcher to target enemy positions across the grassy plains. The primary task requires destroying specified targets and eliminating enemy droid formations to trigger the story cutscene. Completing these steps ensures smooth progression through the Episode I campaign line.
Mastering the Level Challenges
To complete the Don't Lose Your Head challenge, players need to detach the heads of three separate battle droids during close-quarters combat. Aiming carefully with ranged weapons at incoming droids ensures you remove their heads without destroying the units entirely. Performing this task early prevents companion AI warriors from taking out the necessary targets first.
The second challenge, named Booma Shakalaka, demands that players destroy all 18 AAT-1 Hover Tanks across the battlefield. Although the game counter only requests ten tank destructions, full eradication is mandatory for challenge credit. Players should focus entirely on armored tanks before bombing infantry units to avoid ending the mission prematurely.
The final challenge called Ouch Time requires wiping out 300 battle droids using a single booma projectile. Targeting dense clusters in the center of enemy formations maximizes splash damage radius. Landing a precise shot in crowded ranks easily unlocks this achievement in one launch.
Collecting Minikits and Earning True Jedi
Five hidden minikits are scattered throughout the mission area for dedicated collectors to discover. Players can shoot down five floating drones positioned outside the shield perimeter during Story Mode to collect the first minikit. The remaining collectibles require returning in Free Play mode with specialized character classes like Bounty Hunters and Scavengers.
Achieving True Jedi status requires collecting 35,000 studs across the two main phases of the battle. Smashing surrounding environmental objects inside the shield bubble builds up your stud multiplier quickly. Reaching this threshold unlocks extra rewards and contributes toward full planetary completion.
