There isn’t much room to maneuver on these small platforms, so try to eliminate the Octocopters as quickly as possible. Ink a path ahead, then enter squid form, jumping from one platform to the next, collecting the armor along the way. Ink the tops of the two Spreaders and ride them, hiding in your ink until you’re close enough to engage the remaining Octocopters.
Sunken Scroll

After clearing out the Octocopters, ride the long Spreader toward this isolated platform. Ink the side of the approaching platform, then swim and jump toward it to reach the level’s Sunken Scroll.
Ink the top of this narrow pillar and hide in your ink while watching the nearby Spreader. Ambush the two Twintacle Octotroopers riding on the Spreader as they approach—pop out of your ink, open fire, then drop back into your ink. One of these Octotroopers has the key to the vault. Once both Octotroopers are eliminated, collect the dropped key from the Spreader, then carefully ink a path to the vault, swimming and jumping along the adjacent platform and pillar.
Before dropping down onto this platform, take a moment to spread some ink. As soon as you drop down, the Spreaders begin rotating, creating large circles of purple ink. To make matters worse, you come under attack by two Octolings—one after another. Make a beeline for the armor in the nearby crate, then confront the Octolings. If possible, make it to the Bomb Rush special on the right side of the platform. This allows you to throw unlimited Splat Bombs, Burst Bombs, and Seekers for a few seconds. This can come in handy during your fight against the Octolings. The second Octoling drops the key to the vault. Open the vault to access an Inkrail leading to the Zapfish.
