Cut the release pulley with your knife to raise the flag and initiate the challenge. The first flagpole (1/5) for the Raise the Flags Challenge is just beyond where Sara and Guillermo are standing. Guillermo will remain at this map location. NOTE: If you don't accept the mission at first, you can always return later. Details are below, after the bulleted list, below. The mission also takes you into one of the two Challenge Tombs and past a number of major collectibles, so this time I've included it in the main walkthrough. It's also the only way to gain access to the level's single Crypt. Like all Side Missions, this one is optional, but it's required for 100% completion. He suggests that Lara Investigate the Cemetery. She and Guillermo had a fight the night before and she hasn't been seen since. He explains that Isabela, another archaeologist and a special friend, has disappeared. SIDE MISSION – STAR CROSSED (Explore the Local Mysteries): Before following the main story, speak to the mission giver, Guillermo, standing next to Sara. She suggests that Lara start at the library near the cemetery. Sara tells Lara that the stone faces have been here for at least 400 years and are rumored to guard an ancient crypt whose precise location has never been found. Follow Abby through the COURTYARD and down the steps to the southeast to find Sara and another archaeologist, Guillermo. Looks like we're on the right track!ĬOURTYARD: After the cutscene, approach Abby and she'll start talking about a childhood friend, Sara, who works as an archaeologist in the area. As they drive across the wooden bridge leading to the mission, they pass a group of giant heads carved from giant boulders. Lara, Jonah, and Abby arrive at the Mission of San Juan. I've tried to make these distinctions clear in the walkthrough, but the English language can be a real pain in the butt sometimes. There's also a Side Mission, called "Star Crossed/Explore the Local Mysteries," which is not to be confused with the Mission of San Juan itself. The other is the Christian holy site Lara is seeking in order to find the Silver Box. One is the crypt of Huascar, The Syncretist, an optional side area with a sarcophagus like the other crypts in the game. NOTE: There are two "crypts" in this level. *These camps are found in the Challenge Tombs and are not counted in the total on the in-game map.Ĭhallenge Tombs: 2 Challenges: 1 Treasure Chests: 1 Crypts: 1 Relics: 9 Documents: 27 Murals: 4 Survival Caches: 8 Monoliths: 1 Archivist Maps: 4 Explorer Backpacks: 3 Weapons/Gear: none (various from the Merchant)Ĭamps: 6 (Mission Gate, Riverside, Ruined Tower, Deserted Cloister, Mountain Catacombs*, Flood Basin*)
