Guested Account Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Can't get to it!! Jump to the pillar with spike, jump up, shimmy around, jump back to pillar and then to the slope and slide... well the problem is as soon as she lands on the pillar, the camera goes overhead and by the time you get the camera in the correct position, the pillar and the slope are retracting already. If I jump without adjusting the camera, she ends up landing on the floor and losing 1/3 of her health!! This is Messed Up!! :angry: :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laraman Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Raise all the slopes and platforms and then run back and grab the box you pulled out. Pull it to the slope that leads to the relic and push the box into the crack in the slope. Run back up to the start and jump all the slopes and platforms and then onto the slope that leads to the relic. The slope won't go down due to the box so you'll be able to jump and grab the ledge and grab the relic =). Without the box the slope retracts too fast - it retracts before you even get near it. With the box you'll be able to adjust the camera with no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) So you're talking about in the HOT ROOM. From the GUIDE: This compartment is on a timer. You have 45 seconds to reach the Relic before the tower reverts. Jump to the right, swim around the tower, pass to the right of the block, and climb up onto the steps. Leap the gap, and race up the stairs. Run back and out to the edge of the middle promontory, leap to the first circular fire island, slightly right of the tower and keep left, jumping again to the second circular fire tower in the middle of the water. Leap to the smaller of the two main towers on this side of the chamber, and shimmy left, around the lowers lip until you reach the end. Then vertically vault all the way to the top. NOTE: If you haven't hooked the ring with your grapple and turned off most of the fire on this tower, it takes too long to scale it! Turn left, and jump off the top of this structure landing on the circular, fire-spouting lower platform of the main tower. Run left to the hidden cubbyhole containing the Relic, and grab it before it reverts! Edited June 6, 2007 by Mike Added the rest of walkthrough.

Guested Account Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 nope I'm in the spike room and I am talking about the relic that was behind the white stone blocks Lara pulled down with the grapple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) j7 there's only 2 relics in Palace Midas. Refer to my guide. I think you are talking about the Artifact, there's on 1 and it's in the Spike Room. I'll write it for you and I will give you a video to watch. When I watched the video, it seemed kind of tricky so it may help to watch the video also! Here we go: *IMPORNANT BEFORE YOU PROCEED* *MUST HAVE THE LEVER PULLED SO THE PLATFORMS ARE RAISED* *MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PULLED THE BLOCKS DOWN WITH YOUR HOOK* To claim the Artifact, leap from the alcove (of the lever) to the square platform, turn left, and leap to the spiked tower. *CAUTION* The square platform descends as soon as you land on it. This means: You must wait until the platform is fully extended before you leap onto it. You have only one chance to perform a maneuver on a lowering latform. The left edge of the spiked tower has a rough lip that you can't hang from, so shimmy right around both corners. Then turn and leap to the sloped platform. There isn't enough time to turn the camera; slide and immediately leap. Grab the ledge jutting out of the exterior wall and turn right. The ledge is retracting, so line yourself up with the lip under the spikded tower's top, and jump to grab it. Vault to the upper lip of the spikded tower, and shimmy right, around both corners, then turn and leap to the square platform. Run off the opposite side of the square platform and leap to the lower sloped platform. Slide down it, then immediately leap and grab the protruding ledge. The claim the Artifact, turn right, and leap to the square platform near the corner. Quickly turn slightly left, and jump off before the platform descends too low. Leap and grab the ledge lip of the corner alcove where you toppled the blocks earlier. The Artifact is glistening at the far end of the alcove. Take it! *CAUTION* After you claim the Artifact, drop off the left side of the alcove (if you're facing into the room), or you land on a pit of spikes!

Guested Account Posted June 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 you are playing on a Playstation 2 aren't you? well it's easier than a PC when you don't have a controller on the PC. Furthermore, you are jumping over the top of the spike pillars before the extend and I tried that but it doesn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore, you are jumping over the top of the spike pillars before the extend and I tried that but it doesn't work. No, I don't have the game, yet. That is from the official guide. Like I said you can watch the video, it shows more details in real time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrensh Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 j7, do you mean the secret thing that's in the opposite corner to where you got the owl thing? I've just gone back and managed to do this without too many problems using only a keyboard and mouse. Make sure you're adjusting the camera while Lara is in the air, so that when she lands the camera is already where you want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
