Complete walkthrough for Portal Reloaded's 'Lasers' section, covering Test Chambers 13, 14, and 15. Learn to manipulate lasers and time portals to solve complex 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 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: First, travel to the present using a time portal. Summon a reflector cube and position it in the present as shown. Use a portal to direct the laser through the first node, then reflect 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 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. Adjust as needed. Return to the future to retrieve the future reflector cube if you moved it. Place the future reflector cube at the end of the nodes 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 to direct the laser to 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 now power up 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 cube on the lip above the second receiver. Travel to the future. Retrieve the future reflector cube and bring it back to the present using a time portal in the laser room. Position it to reflect the laser into the second receiver through the node. Now, get to the other side of the particle field without going through it (use existing portals or a time portal). In the present, 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 chamber.
Tips
- In Test Chamber 13, you can take some damage from the laser to travel into the future.
- In Test Chamber 14, ensure the reflector cube in the present hits all three nodes. You may need to adjust its position or retrieve the future cube again.
- In Test Chamber 15, be mindful of the particle field and use time portals strategically to bypass it and manipulate objects.
