Tomb Raider: Ex Oblivione - Serannian - The Sky City

NEW EDIT:

Nad,

I hate jump-pads in TEN!!!!! It was only by extreme luck that I could reach the ledge for shooting the second gong and leaving the spike room.

I have the silver dragon. I will tackle the centaurs tomorrow.

**** An additional query: Are there any shortcuts to get medipaks? In TR4 they were 0 and 9. But there don't seem to be any in TEN which is a real problem.

I hope you find the emerald dragon secret.

This level has several very large buildings with little-to-do, but quite beautiful. The hydras were annoying and took a long time to get rid of. There are a few ledges and dead-end paths at the end which seem to be closed off by the LB from alpha/beta testing.

Getting the crossbow was actually harder than getting the secrets.

There is a fatal bug at the pushable/floor-lever puzzle. I encountered a corruption issue that corrupted any save that was reloaded when the bug occurred. This bug showed Lara in a void and nothing could be done. It was necessary to quit the program and delete the corrupted saves from the computer. Going back to an earlier save allowed resumption of the game. The block raised by the floor-lever is timed, but it was necessary to press the floor-lever 3 times in a row (forward-reverse-forward) to get the block to raise. Then Lara had to speed-run to the pushable and move it over the raised block. The pushable had to be placed in position before using the floor-lever.

The jump-pads should be improved in a future update version since they are unreliable.

If you noticed my previous post, I finished this level and currently have 2 secrets in Wastelands.

I tried the left pad first yesterday and gave up. It then dawned on me that I should go to the right corner ledge first. I then saw a jump pad below the lethal water. That still didn't work, but on a retry I accidentally landed on the adjacent underwater safe tile. By walking forwards, I could do a correct forward jump from the adjacent jump pad to reach the ledge and turn off the spikes. However, after using the jumpswitch when I had to go to the left corner ledge, that jump pad would still only go up-and-down. But on one retry, with extreme unknown luck I was able to make it. That jump pad needs to be fixed by Neltharion in a future update.

Should we kill this guy here right now. If we shoot him from here, it will run away. But if we shoot from above, it can be killed.

No, you would just be wasting valuable ammo needed for the later levels. Just keep going up to the trapdoor and ladder that leads to the palace. There will be a battle there with centaurs and probably that guy also. He is up there in version 9, but I don't think he showed up there when I played version 3 first.

You do not need to kill every enemy in this game unless that gives you pleasure.

Thanks for your help, any way pistols will do and the guy wont shoot you back from there.

"-" is for small med and "+" for large med.

Can anyone please tell where should we get silver dragon?

Also eines muss man dem Levelbauer lassen, er hat ein Händchen fürs monumentale Bauen!

Wenig zu tun, aber schön gebaut.

So, nun auch durch, das war wieder eine lange Tour. Mit der Version3, gab es nur ein kl. Problem, mit der w. Plattform wo ein Kegel über diese verschoben werden musste, hier funktionierte "diese" nicht immer, x-male geübt. Aber ansonsten eine schöne Gestaltung, mit guten Ideen.
