Master laser redirection in Portal Reloaded with this guide covering Test Chambers 13, 14, and 15. Learn to use portals and time portals to solve complex laser puzzles.
Walkthrough
- 1Test Chamber 13: Place portals as shown in the image. Use a portal to move the laser sideways and a time portal to send it into the future. You can take damage from the laser to travel into the future. Once in the future, rearrange portals without affecting the present. Position portals so the laser goes directly into the target to exit the chamber.
- 2Test Chamber 14: First, travel to the present using a time portal. Summon a reflector cube from the central switch and position it in the present as shown. Use a portal to bring a laser through the first node and reflect it into the next two nodes. Then, travel to the future. In the future, use portals to bring a laser into the present through the time portal, ensuring it passes through the node. Retrieve the reflector cube from the future and bring it to the present via a time portal. Position the present reflector cube to hit all three nodes. If necessary, travel back to the future to retrieve the future reflector cube and bring it to the present again. Finally, place the future reflector cube at the end of the nodes in the present to reflect the laser into the receiver, completing the chamber.
- 3Test Chamber 15: Start by going through the particle field to the left. Place a portal where the laser hits the wall and a time portal on the opposite wall. Travel through the time portal to the future to bypass the particle field. Head to the other side of the room and use another time portal to return to the present, now on the other side of the particle field. Place a new portal on the upper wall above the laser room so the laser hits the first receiver. Travel back to the future and place a portal on the small wall in the laser room to shoot the receiver. Return to the present. The laser should be hitting the first receiver, powering an elevating platform. Stand on the platform and shoot a time portal behind the node to raise the platform further, allowing you to summon a reflector cube. Place this reflector cube on the small lip above the second receiver. Travel to the future and retrieve the future reflector cube. Run into the laser room and use a time portal to bring the future reflector cube into the present laser room. Position it to reflect the laser into the second receiver through the node. To proceed, you need to be in the present on the other side of the particle field. If you have a portal on the other side, use it, or use a time portal to get around the field. Climb the stairs and use a portal on the upper wall to hit the third receiver. Finally, move the reflector cube onto the switch to complete the test chamber.
Tips
- In Test Chamber 13, you can take damage from the laser to travel into the future.
- In Test Chamber 14, ensure the reflector cube in the present hits all three nodes.
- In Test Chamber 15, you must carefully manage portals and time portals to bypass the particle field and manipulate lasers and cubes across different time periods.
