Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation Hints

How do I get through the circular blade traps at the start of the level?

  • 1 of 5: There's a pattern to when the traps open and close.  Watch the traps for a bit to learn that pattern.
  • 2 of 5: The blades will close twice before they stay open long enough for you to pass through.
  • 3 of 5: You also need to be careful not to hurt yourself on the edges of the trap, even when the blades are open.
  • 4 of 5: If you jump forward from just the right place, you might be able to clear the trap without hitting either the top or the bottom, but that's not necessarily the best thing to do.
  • 5 of 5: I found that it was easiest to step to just in front of the trap and turn around.  Then, jump backwards through the trap to clear it.
