Level 25
Eckhardt’s Lab
We slide down a ramp but if you do not jump to your left before the blades Lara is dead. Once on the stone ledge Lara can make the long jump across the way avoiding the second Set of blades and taking some slight damage on her energy. A doorway ahead has 2 knights which I did not encounter until I pulled a lever in the room. Enter the room and go to a desk in the far left corner and pick up Alchemic Phial number one and nearby is a health pack too.
Pull the lever in the middle of the room to open the trap door in the centre and then find a ladder, near the entrance you came in and climb to the top and make your way around to the place Holder for phial number one. Continue around the catwalk you are on and back step from the Railing to jump on top of the cage in the centre of the room. Inside are two more Alchemic Phials the last two we need.
Once Lara is on top of the cage drop into the opening and remember this Area as it is our only way out and a great save point before you pick up the phial as after you do the cage drops into the acid bath. Pick up the phial and climb up the cage shimmy left and pull Lara back on top of the cage to safety. A small ledge not accessible before now is so have Lara climb up and crawl inside for phial number three our final one we need. Now we need to get out of here. Lara can climb the walls here but cannot pull herself out you will have to do A back flips at the edge to land back onto the floor in the main area.
Once back let’s waste no Time using our last two phials and placing them in their holders. Climb the stairs in the room to place phial number two, then head down the stairs and head for the pool in the other room and place phial three in the holder on the wall. This starts a chain reaction and now you can Have Lara jump into the water to get the crystal shard sitting on a base at the bottom.
Now surface back to the top and go through the newly opened door and follow it sliding to yet
Another door. Once you open this door a cut scene kicks in with Eckhardt busy doing his thing. Once you have control of Lara the best thing to do is duck as he using all his powers to try to Kill Lara. You can’t do anything to him at this point so save your ammo until he starts to make three clones of himself. At some point the three clones will run to the centre circle where you Are that is when you start shooting at them and move as close as you can shooting Eckhardt until A cut scene kicks in of Lara stabbing him with one of the three crystal shards. Repeat this process two more time and on the third the cut scene will show Joachim Karel who all along was the Ringleader a Nephilim himself a shape shifter the one who killed Von Croy. He stabs Eckhardt with the third shard to kill him and offers Lara a chance at joining him. Of course Lara refuses and now Lara becomes his next target.
If you’ve made it this far it’s a great save point don’t Worry about ammo you won’t need it. Find the slumped Eckhardt and grab his glove this is What will kill Karel but not on him we have to now find a button on another pillar similar to one Eckhardt is lying dead against. Push the button to lower a ladder nearby and climb up.
Move the platform to another ladder and climb up again. One more ladder to find and climb up. On this platform all you have to do is find a spot to jump towards the sleeper. Do not worry about grabbing anything as a cut scene will automatically kick in of Lara hanging from the Sleeper and using the glove and ending the reign of the Nephilim. Lara finds Kurtis’s weapon and only to wonder if he’s alive or dead and will ever see him again. She exits the lab and you have successfully completed this wonderful game, The Angel of Darkness congratulations!
