Tomb Raider Walkthrough Part 24 – A Friend in Need (Mountain Village to Shanty Town)

Head to the camp you started at, Village Plateau, and go over to the East using a Rope Arrow. This will put Lara back in the Shack where she got the distress call from Sam. Continue over to the East, jumping the gap, collecting the ammo on that ledge then riding the zipline down. Lara will land on the roof but the roof will give way beneath her. Have her catch her grip then climb up into the shack. There are 3 Solarii guards by a leaking tank. Look on the ground to the left of the tank to find a lantern. Fire an arrow there to blow up the fuel the fuel and the Solarii guards if you are quick enough. After that just focus on picking off any remaining guards and looting the bodies.

With that done head over to the right of the plane wreckage. Head down the passage and cross over to the far side of the archway. Hide around the corner and wait. There are 5 more Solarii, 2 that will immediately investigating and 3 more that will follow up after the others go down. Now head across the archway and keep going to the River.

You need to cross through the river now. She will try to make it with the swift current but the rapids will win in the end and sweep her away. While in this section focus on staying in the middle of the river to avoid the worst of the obstacles. Anything that can get Lara will kill her. Any time you see her pull out the Shotgun immediately aim for the barricade that is in front of you and fire. Get through the rapids and she will crash into an old cockpit. The glass immediately starts cracking around her so she just manages to grab the parachute. As she falls hit the prompts to deploy the chutes. The main chute just breaks away but the back up chute will work.

As she sails through the tree tops, maneuver her through the branches to keep her damage to a minimum. After that she will come crashing down through the canopy to the forest floor. When she gets up and head over to the edge of the forest Lara will realize she is getting a lot closer to the base of the temple. She has arrived in Shanty Town. Lara is very badly hurt from those last couple of falls. She needs to do some first aid else the bleeding will just keep getting worse. This also means she cannot explore the town right now and must focus on getting some supplies to patch herself up.
