Ratchet will now be invincible for 30 seconds whenever he collects a blue health ball and is at maximum health.
  
  

Mirrored Levels

The first method of unlocking this requires performing the following: press Flip Left, 3-Hit Wrench Combo, Hyper Strike, Flip Right, Double Jump, Flip Right, Double Jump and Full Second Crouch. If you're having trouble pulling that move off, you can also try this for the same effect: Left Flip (four times), Multi-Strike, Hyper-Strike, Right Flip (four times), Double Jump and hold a Crouch for over one second.
