Overview
This guide covers all 13 challenges of the game. It consists mainly of MAPS and SCREENSHOTS taken in-game, accompanied by bits of commentary to explain what is shown and to give hints about specific situations. The simple layout prominently features vital information such as the names of AREAS and the location of the CLOSEST BASE (FAST-TRAVEL) CAMPS from the objects. The ultimate aim of the guide is to assist players in getting the ‘Inconceivable!’ Steam achievement.

Challenge 3: ILLUMINATION 8-10
Area: Mountain Village
Closest Base Camps:
a) Village Overlook (see important note below map)

Find and light the bowl
Note: Accessible after Lara’s been to the radio tower
Location on the Map
Important Note:
In case you need to go back to statues 8 or 9 after Lara’s initial visit to that part of the level, you’re going to have to travel a long way to get there again. You won’t be able to backtrack the route from the Village Plateau base camp through the isolated wooden structure just northeast of that, since Lara cannot jump or rope-arrow back to the slightly more elevated spot where statue 9 is located. Instead, you need to proceed from either the Village Plateau or Village Overlook base camps back to statue 7 and then keep on moving downwards from there (using jumps and ropes) until you end up back at the Mountain Descent day camp close to statue 8, and then onwards to statue 9.
Screenshot A – Illumination 8/10
Lara gets to a broken bridge. The statue is in die wooden structure to the left.

Screenshot A – Illumination 9/10
Since this statue is on higher ground than the river, don’t jump the broken bridge, but look to the left for the roped pole on the other side of the river (it is on the opposite bank of the stream from statue 8). Use an arrow-ropeline to get across the river and proceed up the ledge to the top. From there, jump onto the wooden beam in the picture, then jump towards the statue.
Screenshot B – Illumination 9/10
After lighting the bowl, get Lara down from the higher area and proceed to the left of the picture, eventually arriving back at the Village Plateau base camp.

Challenge 12: PREVIOUS INHABITANTS
Important Note:
This area has no base (fast-travel) camps, only day camps. Therefore, to return here from distant areas, Lara needs to fast-travel to the adjacent area’s base camp: the Survivors’ Camp in Shipwreck Beach. From there she can make her way back to Cliffside Bunker, moving east.
Area: Cliffside Bunker
Closest Base Camp:
Survivors’ Camp (area: Shipwreck Beach)
Find and destroy (burn)
Location on the Map
Screenshot A – Previous Inhabitants 1/4
Lara climbs her way into a fortified artillery nest, destroyed long ago.
Screenshot B – Previous Inhabitants 1/4
The first flag is located on a wall at the back of the cannon.
Area: Cliffside Bunker
Closest Base Camp:
Survivors’ Camp (area: Shipwreck Beach)
Find and destroy (burn)
Location on the Map
Screenshot A – Previous Inhabitants 2/4
The object is hidden high up on a shadowed wall amongst some vegetation. Not that easy to spot at first. Shoot with fire arrow.
Screenshot B – Previous Inhabitants 2/4
A different view of the object as Lara hangs from a lift.
Area: Cliffside Bunker
Closest Base Camp:
Survivors’ Camp (area: Shipwreck Beach)

One of the game’s most difficult objects to find. Located very high up on a rusty metal structure. Barely visible. Shoot with fire arrow to destroy (inlay) using zoom (Z).
Screenshot B – Previous Inhabitants 4/4
Seen from further away and a bit lower, close to the day camp from where Lara proceeds to the wreck of the Endurance.

Challenge 13: SUN KILLER
Area: Research Base
Closest Base Camp: Research Lab
Find and destroy (shoot)
Location on the Map
Screenshot A – Sun Killer 1/5
Lara has just entered this room by squeezing through a gap in a wall. Directly in front hangs a shining light bulb that obscures the dangling object behind it. Use Survival Instinct (Q) to see it more clearly and shoot to destroy.
Screenshot B – Sun Killer 1/5
Seen in Survival Instinct mode (Q). Lara is getting very close to the level’s base camp.
Area: Research Base
Closest Base Camp: Research Lab
Find and destroy (shoot)
Location on the Map
This object is very hard to find, mainly because it’s located in an unaccessible room. Lara has to find a gap in the wall with a clear view of the target in order to destroy it (as shown in screenshot A). The position of the object is represented by the yellow circle. Arrows A and B represent Lara’s position in screenshots A and B.
Screenshot A – Sun Killer 2/5
Lara has the base camp at her back. Standing in this doorway (she had to pry the door open first), and using Survival Instinct (Q), one can faintly make out the object cross the hallway. The object is located inside an unaccessible room and the only way to destroy it is to find an unobstructed view like right here through the unbarred window. Use zoom (Z) to give Lara a clearer shot.
Screenshot B – Sun Killer 2/5
Also seen in Survival Instinct mode (Q). Lara is standing in the hallway, with the opened door (screenshot A) circled in white. Go to that doorway to get a clear shot.
Area: Research Base
Closest Base Camp: Research Lab
Find and destroy (shoot)
Location on the Map
Screenshot A – Sun Killer 3/5
The object is seen dangling from the ceiling. It is located very close to the spot where Lara stood when she fired at the second object – in this picture that doorway is in the wall right behind Lara’s head. Inlay: the totem seen from directly beneath, visually enhanced by the afterglow from Survival Instinct mode.
Screenshot B – Sun KIller 3/5
Seen through the same doorway where Lara stood aiming at the second object (room with the base camp in it).
Area: Research Base
Closest Base Camp: Research Lab
Find and destroy (shoot)
Note: Accessible after Lara makes the lift crash down
Location on the Map
Screenshot A – Sun Killer 4/5
Taken on the bottom level of the lift shaft after the lift has fallen. Lara has opened the door from the inside.
Screenshot B – Sun Killer 4/5
Easily accessible once the lift has crashed down.
