Prince of Persia: Warrior Within Hints
How do I get past the trap with two quickly rising/falling spiked pillars?
1 of 9: For this difficult trap, there's a large gap (too large to jump across) with two horizontal spiked pillars quickly moving up and down. There are barriers connected to the walls -- you can't run across them. You have to find another way.
2 of 9: Look around carefully. Use the first-person and landscape cameras if you need to.
3 of 9: Notice that above you is a "T" shaped beam. Perhaps that could help.
4 of 9: Run up the (while facing the trap) left wall and jump off it to grab the beam. Climb up and check out the trap from this new point of view.
5 of 9: There's a beam on the other side.
6 of 9: Using Slow Time if you need to, leap across the gap while the spiked pillars are growing farther apart (make sure there's enough room for you to fit between them!).
7 of 9: If timed correctly, you should make it to the other side. Don't drop down just yet, though! Look around carefully.
8 of 9: Underneath you is another spiked pillar. You have to avoid that, too.
9 of 9: Move to the very end of the beam you're on and then drop down. You should fall to the platform below just barely out of the spiked pillar's reach. Continue on.
