Tomb Raider Walkthrough Part 53 – DLC Tombs (Tomb of the Lost Adventurer)

Found in the Northern Coastal Forest, this is a very early Tomb that you can get into without any difficulty by running to the North from the Northern Coastal Forest Base Camp. While accessible early on, it is recommended to get to this Tomb once you have the Grenade Launcher (and Shotgun) to ensure that you can collect everything. Grab the arrows that you find just before the waterfall. Head on through the water and up to the first barrier. Shoot the lantern above the debris to burn the debris away.

Head into the tomb itself. Go over to the right and look for the first wall you can scamper up. Do so and head to the top ramp of it. Shoot down the lantern on the long board to get it to burn away the supports of the board. Jump onto the board to have it collapse. This will cause the tree to catch fire and the plane to collapse some, creating a ramp into the higher reaches. Head over to the left now, to where the lower wing is. Jump onto the wing and then onto the ledge behind it. There are a few lanterns just sitting around lit. Look below the fuselage of the plane to see a tree wrapped in white. Throw a lantern at it to burn the tree down and give the plane a bit more boost.

Climb back onto the plane and then up and across the wings of it. In the Southern part of the area, reached from the plane, jump onto the roof of the shack and then go down the passage in front of you. Look along the right-hand side. If you have the Grenade Launcher, you can blast through the metal wall section easily enough.

In this room you will find a lot of Salvage that can be added to your collection in nets above. Look, from the doorway, over to the right to find a platform you can pull down with a Rope Arrow. Do so to get more Salvage. You will see a number of Salvage Crates sitting on beams. Shoot them to knock them down to the ground. There is also a breakable shelf that is too high to reach. Once again, shoot the crates to bring them down to the ground. After that go over to the left-hand side of the area. You will see a Barricaded Door and a shelf. Climb onto the shelf to get it to collapse, revealing more Salvage. After that use the Shotgun to blast through the Barricade. There you will find another Large Salvage Crate. Force it open to claim the last of the salvage.

With all that in hand head on through the rest of the rest of the tunnel. When you come out onto the ledge you will see a Brazier above you and a hinged post. Shoot the lantern above the brazier to light it. Now head over to the crates nearby the Post. Jump from the crates onto the post to swing it out and around. This will let the brazier swing freely over to the shack filled with burnable items which in turn lowers the plane that final necessary bit. It also breaks apart to ruin the next runway you had otherwise.

Head back to the other side, to the ledge with the Lanterns (Optionally you can use Fire Arrows, if available, to just light the cloth as you cross the plane) and grab another one. Lob it into the plane to clear out the middle of it. After that just head into the newly cleared section of the plane and from there climb to the tail end of it. After that it is a simple jump to make it to the reward chest. Collect the Salvage from there and head just turn around and head for the Ziplne there after that. Take that one down to exit the Tomb with all your spoils
