Follow this detailed walkthrough to successfully reach the tower in Rise of the Tomb Raider, covering enemy placements, stealth tactics, and item locations.
Walkthrough
- 1When you regain control in the market area, craft arrows. Observe the six enemies ahead.
- 2Use stealth to get through the area quickly. If detected, you'll need to use traditional shooter methods.
- 3From your initial position, note the enemy placements: two by the fire, one patrolling, and three in the back right corner.
- 4Hop into cover behind the short wall to the right. Wait for the patrolling guard to pass, then sneak up and perform a silent takedown.
- 5Shoot a Poison Arrow at the ground between the two stationary guards ahead to eliminate them both.
- 6Move to where the stationary guards were. Use Survival Instinct to locate the three enemies in the distance to the right.
- 7Perform a headshot on the central guard with a Poison Arrow to take out all three.
- 8Head back to the start and find the yellow and white tent to the left to collect a Walkie-talkie [Cut Short 02/06].
- 9Move to the opening guarded by the three enemies. Destroy the Walkie-talkies hanging on the tents on either side [Cut Short 03/06 and 04/06].
- 10To the left, find a tree for Hardwood. To the right, find a side-passage with a crate of Salvage and more Salvage next to a flare.
- 11Follow the slope down to an underground area. Sneak up and knife the two enemies, or use a Poison Arrow to take them both out.
- 12Grab Mushrooms and Ammo from the left if needed. Pick up Magnesite Ore on the left in the next hallway.
- 13At the end of the hallway, enter the next room. Stealthily kill the four enemies: one with his back to you at the tunnel exit, one by a stone pillar to the right, and two by a dead Remnant.
- 14Use a Poison Arrow on the two enemies by the dead Remnant after taking out the guard with his back to you and the one by the pillar.
- 15In the side-tunnel opposite the room entrance, find a crate of Salvage, reagents, and Magnesite Ore.
- 16Loot the room for Ammo and grab a bottle or can. Near the exit archway, find Mushrooms to the right and Byzantine Coins to the left.
- 17Move through the archway towards the light to a new area.
- 18Move to the sandbags and peek left. Use a bottle to craft a Molotov or a Poison Arrow to take out the two enemies inspecting the wall.
- 19Behind you, find a Mushroom by the back wall. In the corridor to the right, find reagents and a second Mushroom.
- 20Move over to the hole in the wall the enemies were inspecting and Lara will squeeze through.
- 21Sneak left and use a single Poison Arrow on the group of four soldiers and two prisoners to kill them all at once.
- 22After a scene plays, use Survival Instinct to find a weak wall in the corner. Use your pickaxe to break it down and proceed inside.
- 23Drop down to the next area to find the ammunition cache.
