Navigate Portal Reloaded's challenging laser puzzles in Test Chambers 13, 14, and 15. Learn how to use time portals and reflector cubes to redirect lasers and solve complex chambers.
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 may take some damage to travel into the future. Once in the future, rearrange portals so the laser hits the target directly. Head through the door.
- 2Test Chamber 14: Travel to the present via a time portal. Summon a reflector cube and position it in the present as shown. Use a portal to bring a laser through the first node, then use the reflector cube to direct it into the next two nodes. Travel to the future. Use portals to bring a laser into the present through the time portal, ensuring it passes through the present node. Retrieve the future reflector cube and bring it to the present via a time portal. Adjust 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, position the future reflector cube to reflect the laser into the receiver, completing the chamber.
- 3Test Chamber 15: Go 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 reach the future, bypassing 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 to direct the laser to the first receiver. Travel to the future and place a portal on the small wall in the laser room to aim at the receiver. Return to the present. The laser should now power an elevating platform. Stand on it 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 lip above the second receiver. Travel to the future. Retrieve the future reflector cube and bring it to the present via a time portal placed in the laser room, positioning it to reflect the laser into the second receiver through the node. To reach the other side of the particle field without going through it, use an existing portal or a time portal. Once in the present on the other side, climb the stairs and use a portal on the upper wall to hit the third receiver. Move the reflector cube onto the switch to complete the chamber. Note: As per community feedback, ensure the redirection cube is moved onto the switch *before* firing the portal to hit the upper receiver in the final steps of Test Chamber 15.
Tips
- Be mindful of taking damage from lasers to travel into the future if necessary.
- Carefully position reflector cubes to hit all required nodes and receivers.
- Utilize time portals strategically to move between the present and future, bypassing obstacles like particle fields.
- Pay attention to the interaction between moving cubes and laser paths, especially when future cubes are involved.
