Path of Battle | Challenge Tomb Guide

This tomb is in the Hidden City, west of the Paititi Market Base Camp. Follow the river to the waterfall, then dive down and squeeze through the narrow passage. It takes a long swim to reach the puzzle room.

  1. The puzzle room itself is a giant spinning trap mechanism. From the main platform, avoid the drills and go left. Circle all the way around the outer ring to reach the right switch. Ignore the left switch.
  2. Pull the switch to activate even more traps. Run back through the gauntlet, back to the first (left) switch. Now you can safely activate it.
  3. The giant pillar will lower one rung. Now you can return to the start, run right, and reach another switch. Pull it. From the right side, it’s time to go left — pull both switches to break the trap completely.
  4. Climb up the wreckage to reach the treasure reward.

Reward: Sip’s Quiver – Loose up to three arrows without pulling from the quiver.
