Portal 2 Hints
Once I have the portal gun, how can I get to the next test chamber?
1 of 8: Start by getting onto the upper floor of the room with the portal gun's shrine in it.
2 of 8: Notice that the orange portal is on a wall next to what's left of the upper floor.
3 of 8: You can't jump from the shrine to the upper floor, so you'll need to use a blue portal to get up there.
4 of 8: Now that you have the portal gun, you can open a blue portal on any flat surface that isn't portal-resistant. (Note that dark metal and glass are portal-resistant.)
5 of 8: Drop down to the floor and fire a blue portal onto any of the wall sections that have weird art drawn on them.
6 of 8: Go through the blue portal to reach the upper floor, then turn right and use the broken walkway section as a ramp.
7 of 8: Keep going past that until you reach a broken-out window. Go through it and drop into a big hallway that has two spots where you have to get past large floor gaps.
8 of 8: Past the hallway's exit door, approach the elevator tube and wait for the elevator to arrive, then enter it to be taken to the Test Chamber 03 area.
