The critical path

Survive fast pursuit sequences, use grapnel routes cleanly and collect what remains before the endgame.

Follow these Chapter 12 checkpoints in order; each one marks a progression action or a search window before the next one-way transition.

  • Follow the beam through the opening passages and decide whether to clear or bypass the first soldier room.
  • Use the brazier and sphere beam to remove growths and lower the grapnel platform.
  • After the slope, check the right-side chest before entering the larger pursuit chamber.
  • Alternate between the two braziers until the exit platform descends, then light its braziers before pulling the lever.
  • Continue through the tunnels and grapnel route, checking side branches before starting the final trial.

Chapter checklist

Before the final one-way transition, check the chapter tracker for 0 Blades, 2 Artefacts and 1 Charm.

When the worm appears, commit to the marked route; stopping between light pockets is usually more dangerous than moving forward.
