[edit] Out of Nexus
You must use the Reavers from the last level to fly back to Jacinto. The controls are pretty basic:
RT bumper is still for shooting. In this level, your Reaver has only two weapons, including a Troika Heavy Machine Gun and a cannon (Name unknown). You can switch between them by rotating the Right stick or pressing once button X. Left stick dodges, since Cole and Baird (If you're Dom) will be your pilot, you don't need to drive the Reaver. But you'll need to dodge the enemy fire and rockets.
When you're out of the Palace, you'll find some Turrets attacking your Reaver. The turrets must be destroyed in Insane because they can kill you really fast with their rockets. Also, some Grinders and Boomers can be seen. When you get to the higher place, you will see a few Grindlifts containing Gears. They are surrounded by Locusts. Cole will land here and let you to kill the Locusts in order to save the Gears. It will be pretty easy since you can use your cannons. But also watch out, because you cannot dodge while landed. Soon, when the Locust are all cleared, a Brumak will apporch beside in a cave. You can kill it easily by shooting its head. After a cut-scene about the surviving Gears thanked Delta Squad and Skorge apporch from the Brumak's cave, and Marcus commanded Cole to escape.
[edit] Battle in the caves
Hollow has a huge cave connections, and now Cole and Baird will have to drive the Reavers in the caves. The caves are dark, but you'll have a light. Right now, you will only need to use the Troika to shoot the Hydra. But normally you don't need to shoot while it's chasing you, until two situations including: Bite and Troika shot. When the Hydra tries to bite your Reaver, shoot its mouth until it screams and falls behind. When Skorge tries to shoot via the Hydra Troikas, keep shooting the Troikas to break them down. Sometimes it may shoot rockets and you'll need to dodge them. Soon, you will be back to the surface, and Skorge's Hydra gets its self stuck in the small exits.
[edit] Reaver chase
After the cut-scene of Skorge's Hydra getting stuck in the Hollow, another cut-scene about flying back to Jacinto starts. Marcus tells Anya about getting back and eventually they meet some Locust, riding on Reavers. Delta Squad fights them off, and gets out of the jungle. During this, bullets can kill your Reaver quickly in Insane, so better kill them fast. After leaving the jungle, the Reavers will stop chasing you, And suddenly, Skorges Hydra punches a hole and flies out, chasing you again.
[edit] Fall of the Hydra
Skorge chases you with his Hydra, and still, the pair uses two types of attack, including Bite and Crash. In bite, you won't need to shoot its mouth. Instead you'll have to shoot its claws, because it will lash its claw to catch your Reaver and try to eat you. Quickily shoot the claw that is holding on your Reaver. It's claw will still remain on the Reaver, but you won't need to do anything with it. Then the Hydra will fly in front of your Reaver and try to crash you. simply shoot its head via cannons. Repeat this three times and it should kill the Hydra for good. This will start a cut-scene of Skorge trying to escape but falls down and is badly hurt. His ultimate fate is left unknown, however he most likely dies from his wounds.
