Midas's Palace - First Switch in Fire Room


Take a running jump to land on or grab the nearest round pillar. As long as Lara hangs or stands close to the edge, she won't take damage.


Wait for the flame to turn off and then take a running jump across the top of the pillar to grab the jutting edge of the larger pillar with the ring of burners.


As Lara hangs from the edge, watch the burners. When the one in front of you goes out, pull up and follow the flames around to the right. If you pace yourself, each burner should go out before Lara gets to it.


On the back of the column is a series of handholds. Grab the lowest one and quickly jump up to grab the second then the third before Lara gets toasted. Climb around to the left as far as you can.


Jump back to grab the ledge jutting out from the alcove behind. Pull up.
