Loner’s Landing
Upon entering Loner’s Landing, you see a X on the floor. Dig into it to get to the Underlab.

You will meet Lady in the Underlab. Use the geyser here to go back up. Cross the bridge and clear out the enemies, and remember to break the candles and whip the grass to get bones.
A bit further you can find the “Volt Hatchet”, a sidearm.

Move across this screen while taking out enemies till you reach the end and go through the top tile to the next screen.

Pick up the rock in the next screen and throw it at the Shield Carrying enemy. Then, dig to the other side and clear the grass here. Dig and go north, then west. Break the large boulder in the ground on the left to clear a path.

Go north and take out the owl. Then, loop around and dig your way to the blue chest with the Bonestone.

Now go north and break the rock on the ground again to blow up the path to the west. Keep heading north and at the top dig towards the left.

Jump over the platforms to get to the blue chest at the end in this secret area. You can possibly level up right now or Bone up, so pick your desired stat upgrade. I suggest Attack.
Dig in the bottom corner to find 20 Bones. Next up check the chest to find Bonestone Dust.

Head back to the main path and use the moving platform and go north. In the next area, move to the left and up the stairs up north.
Check the Underlab at the beginning of the next screen and then go to the left, pick up the loot on that side and check the right side as well next. Take out the enemies here and go north and climb the rope there.
Keep going up and clear that entire side and move to the left to find a door. Break it down and go in.

Take out the three knights inside with the boulders. Get the blue chest next, it has a Bonestone.
Go back out and to the right and climb the rope. Then, go to the right on the roof and jump on the purple balloon flowers. Take out the enemy here and you will find another blue chest at the end of the path. Inside, you’ll find more Bonestone Dust.

Go to the far left of the roof and throw the rope down to get back down. Get up on the metal platform by jumping on one of the purple balloons and clear a path to the right.

Drop down by throwing a rope down from the platform and hit the leftmost pillar to find a Gyro Dagger.

Climb back up and head to the right to exit this screen. In the next screen, clear the area and jump across the chasm. Take out the shielded enemy. After that, blow up the cracked door to reveal a hole in the ground. Go through it.

You will meet a Trooper down there. Clear this area and you can pick up a Kear. This can be used to open one locked door, block or chest. It is a finite resource.

Go back up now and unlock the path on the right to the Boardwalk.
Boardwalk
Kite the Knights here to the gap and take them out with Nightstar. Pick up the bones and make your way through the fire. Clear the enemies here as you make your way through to the right. Use the moving platform to keep moving to the right.
Once you get to the second moving platform, watch the fire bit and move to the right. Switch to the next platform and go south through the small opening.

In this screen, you will see a blue chest on the left, but ignore it for now. Go south and to the right by jumping over the purple balloons. The last balloon will vault you over to the right to a new screen.

Break the candles and then open the chest for another Bonestone.
Go back now and make your way to the Blue Chest guarded by the two knights. Use the rocks to take care of them and pick up the Kear.
Make your way back up and then through the stairs to the next screen. Jump across the gap and then through the hole on the left to the next area.

Use the moving platform and reach the end of the path to come out on top of the area we were just at. Step on the pressure switch to drop the spikes and go back. On the way back, hit the wall to open a path back out.

There is a 50 Bone stack here when you clear every object. Jump down and go up the stairs.
Southern Outskirts – Commons
Check into the Underlab.
Then, go back out and head north. Make your way through till you reach the moving platform on the right. Keep moving right, all the while clearing the objects on the sides and picking up loot.
Go north at the stairs, taking out the flying gremlins. Then, go up the final set of stairs to face the Hulk Trooper.
Boss – Hulk Trooper
When it comes to moves, the Hulk Trooper does a single swipe.

It also does a triple swipe which homes in on your general location. Also, it has a jumping crash down smash.

It’s pretty easy to avoid all his attacks and end the fight.
