Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation Hints
Where exactly are the Black Beetles near the black pyramid?
1 of 3: Go down the ramp to the south, and take the Black Beetle that's on the south wall (in front of you as you're walking away from the ramp). The other beetle, to your right as you're exiting the pool, is broken, so there's no need to take it. In fact, you probably shouldn't take it, as you can avoid releasing a swarm of beetles by leaving the Broken Beetle alone.
2 of 3: Then, go down the ramp to the west and take the one Black Beetle from the walls here. No beetles will come from the wall when you take this one.
3 of 3: The only beetle down the north ramp is broken, so you can just skip that one, since it's only good for another swarm of living beetles. The only reason you'd want to visit that ramp is if you're looking for a way to dispose of the living beetles you may have awoken back down the ramp to the south. (All of the beetles will disappear after you've visited and left the three pools.)
