Beyond Good & Evil Hints
How do I avoid the laser traps?
1 of 6: There's no way around, but correct timing will help you to get through.
2 of 6: At the first trap (laser grid pulsating in power), hang on the ladder and drop down when laser field starts to get weaker. Only then you will hit the floor with the laser turned off.
3 of 6: At the second trap (two moving lasers) drop down when the crossing point of the lasers is moving to the upper left a short moment before it's in the center.
4 of 6: At the third trap (2 rotating lasers in 120 degrees angle) you have to dodge behind the crates and move only in the 240 degrees section of the rotation period.
5 of 6: The next two traps are easier, as you only have to go near the lasers and wait for them turning off.
6 of 6: At the sixth to eighth trap it's easier to drop to the "wrong" side of the laser and jump-roll over it when it comes back instead of trying to time the drop to land on the "right" side.
