There were no mandatory kills in this level and I was successful with not killing any enemies who didn't need to be killed and therefore my number of kills remains at four. I collected all of the secrets and didn't use any glitches.

To minimise health loss I had to cross the canyon like I did during 0:59-2:05. The jump at 2:26 stopped two gunmen from spawning. Without glitches, I wasn't able to prevent the triggering of the four birds. However, I took care of them by killing them with the snowmobile. Killing enemies with the snowmobile is a very handy trick as it doesn't show on the statistics as kills. The snowmobile was also used to kill a gunman at 3:20. The shimming at 5:28-5:42 and 5:52-6:04 prevented two gunmen from spawning. 7:30 was a safe spot from the gunman, and I managed to make him run away by shooting him from the safe spot. The jump at 7:59 skips three leopards. You need luck with 10:36-11:16; you have to be fast and you need the snowmobile guy to not have good enough luck in order to shoot you. You have to shoot the gunman at 13:31 in order for him to run away, making it possible for you to climb up the ladder unharmed. I got rid of the gunman once again by shooting him at 14:17. I then waited until I was comfortable with the positioning of the leopards and proceeded at 14:22. Thanks to the snowmobile I managed to freely kill three gunmen at 17:10. At 18:02 I intentionally triggered two gunmen who I had previously avoided. I did this so that I could kill them with the snowmobile, as demonstrated at 18:34 and 18:40. These free five kills earned me two large healthpacks. The reason why I did most of the level on foot was because I could keep the snowmobile near the beginning and use it to kill the four birds and the six nearby gunmen without it showing on the statistics. I also needed to take the snowmobile to the end of the level as this is where it's most crucial. I avoided triggering the snowmobile enemy during 19:32-19:40 and collected the Gold Secret on foot. I had to travel in that direction by shimming along the ledge during 19:53-20:10 and then do the return journey during 21:14-21:40. When I pulled up from the ledge onto the slope I had to jump backs, perform a mid-air-roll and press to the right so that Lara would land safely. I did trigger the snowmobile enemy when doing the jump at 22:06 which took me back to my own snowmobile. The snowmobile guy did loiter nearby but I made him vacate by shooting him at 22:40. I was then left with the two final snowmobile enemies. Ideally you want them to be a big distance from the block at 23:49 so that you can move the block without them killing you. My main tactic was to be on my own snowmobile (which has a superior top speed to the opposing snowmobiles) and lure the snowmobile enemies at 23:29:80. I then drove at a great speed towards the block and pushed it once. I got back onto my snowmobile at 24:04:30 and lured the snowmobile enemies away again at 24:30:07. This was followed by me rushing to the block and pushing it for a second time. I was back on my snowmobile soon afterwards and lured the snowmobile guys away again at 25:35:00. I raced to the block and jumped to the left while facing the block so that I was able to use a route which stopped two gunmen from spawning. I was then able to jump into the water and see out the level. I would like to add by saying that riding on your snowmobile is most crucial when you are under attack from the snowmobile guys; their attacks are nowhere near as effective against you when you are on a snowmobile.

I find it very flattering and complimenting that you think positively of my gaming content. I'd like to thank you for your feedback and advise you that I typically sleep more than I should. A lot of the time I end up in a position where most of my active hours are devoted to gaming and I slip up with keeping on top of day to day living as a result of this. This does have the potential to be unhealthy.

This level is a beauty; have the monks kill the gunmen and then help yourself to the healthpacks that get dropped. I consistently went about the level in a way where I was maximising the monk's chances of making easy work of the gunmen. I achieved this by weakening a lot of the gunmen with gunfire and ensured that the monks frequently outnumbered the gunmen during conflicts. I lured the crow at 1:53 so that I'd have some initial breathing space from him during the start of the level. I then waited for the crow at 3:40 so that I could lure him to the area at 4:19. When I was done moving the blocks at 7:16 I backtracked until crossing paths with the crow. I then lured the crow to the area with the blocks (7:16) and used one of the blocks to trap the crow there at 8:49. I lured the crow at 25:00 so that I'd get a bit of time to jump onto the platform at 25:08 while shooting at the gunman, making him run off. I was then able to proceed without taking any damage from the gunman or the crow. The crow was joined by two other crows and I did take damage but it was very minimal. A gunman had spawned at 25:48 but he was distracted by the monk. The gunman at 25:58 took some shots at me but didn't make much of a risk of himself. The two gunmen at 26:17 were also distracted by a monk, enabling me to proceed fairly peacefully. From there I saw to the end of the level without encountering any further problems.

I think that I'll continue with things as they are, for now.

As a concerned person who thinks you as a friend or if you prefer an acquaintance, I just would like you to look after your health. Okay?

I still think you have mad skills buddy.

I had to avoid the top three steps when doing the jump at 2:31 as this would've triggered two gunmen. I shot the leopard at 3:27 so that he would run off, and repeated this at 3:57. I safely triggered and avoided the boulders during 4:36-4:58. I did this so that I was able to stick to the left at around 5:02, preventing the spawning of leopards and without having the threat of the boulders. The jump at 5:33 skipped leopards, and the jump at 6:15 re-skipped the leopards. I went about things very slowly during 6:45-17:57. I took such a cautious approach so that I could move the block at 7:02, 7:15, 9:46 and 10:10, pull the switch at 10:36 and collect the large healthpacks at 8:27 and 9:17 without taking damage. Most of the yetis ended up getting stuck but I chose to help them break free so that I had four yetis pursuing me at 17:57. I did this to try and limit the activeness of the three gunmen at around 17:57-18:09. The game can only have five active enemies at once, and the presence of the four yetis meant that there could initially only be one active gunman. Doing the jump at 18:24 instead of climbing the ladder saved me from getting shot loads by the gunmen underneath. I went about 20:12-20:23 in a way where the leopard would only move towards me slowly if I kept within close proximity, resulting in him not violently attacking him. This tactic was no longer an option when I was stood on the block at 20:23, so I waited for there to be distance between myself and the leopard before dropping down for the switch at 20:41, getting back onto the block and then exiting the same way I entered. I returned to the lower area with the jump at 22:03, this came after shooting at the enemies to try and alter their positioning. I skipped the leopards once again at 22:19 and saw to the last bit of the level.

Thanks. But regardless of gaming, I'm really not doing a good job at looking after myself and I can't see this changing anytime soon.

Thanks. I'm not currently succeeding at either though.

There was one mandatory kill in this level; the guardian of the Talion. I was successful with not killing any enemies who didn't need to be killed and therefore my number of kills increases to five. I collected all of the secrets and didn't use any glitches.

The yeti at 2:25 got consumed by the block in front of me. I lured the yetis at 3:12 so that I had a clear path ahead of me when dropping down. I shot the yeti at 4:47 so that he'd run off, enabling me to collect the silver secret and make it to the platform at 5:45 without taking damage from the yeti. The tigers were a problem though, and I shot them while standing on the platform (5:45) to try and get them to run off. The jump at 7:31 made the Tibetan Mask unnecessary. I still had to go onto the platform containing the Tibetan Mask though (5:45) so that the area at 6:37 was accessible. I lured the yetis between 8:56-9:13 to try and help with taking less damage. At 10:41 I dropped down in a way where I didn't lose health. The mandatory kill came at 14:15; I needed to kill this enemy in order to trigger the end of the level.

I'm flattered that you're concerned. Things are immensely difficult for me though due to emotional health problems. I suffer from severe depression and anxiety and am constantly haunted by abuse, trauma, pain and suffering that I have been subject to. I am a very traumatised and broken person. I don't know how to help myself and nobody else knows how to help me. In the last 6 years I've spent over 5 of those years in psychiatric hospitals and am currently a patient at one as we speak. I'm on my eighth hospital admission and those admissions have been divided between 4 different hospitals. I've been engaging with Mental Health Serves for 10 years and have exhausted medication and therapy but it's all been in vain; nothing has helped me in the slightest.

It's interesting, YouTubers and Gamers seem to be very prone to having mental conditions which severely affect their quality of life. I think that they are overly represented when it comes to things like depression, anxiety and other nasty illnesses. It's sad.

Please stay positive that you will get the help you need. My thoughts and I believe others in the forum too wish you the best and often think about you.

Keep playing as you are very efficient and excel in all the games you play.

[deadmando9]

As far as traumas go, I was an abused kid myself and the only way I learned to cope with the trauma is to have a positive outlet for the intense emotions that are present for anyone who has suffered traumatic experiences. Being open to talk about what you are going through helps. If you like I can be a friendly ear. If you want you can PM me. Take care buddy.
