Exploring the Crypt Interior
Enter the crypt by climbing through the gap. Follow the path inside, which eventually leads to a long slide. At the bottom, you’ll find a glowing chamber. Proceed to the end, where a weight mechanism will help you descend further. This brings you to the sarcophagus containing Vestige: Yaway’s Wooden Greaves, an essential reward in this area.
Exiting the Crypt Safely
The exit is more challenging than the entry. Move forward, but watch for traps. You can either disable them or find a wall on the right to pry open, offering a safer route that reconnects with the main path.
You’ll soon reach a room with a mural and a document. Look for another wall that can be pried open and go through it to continue.
Final Stretch to Escape
The last section involves a room with bone flaps and climbing points. Use your rope to pull the flaps into position, creating pathways to climb. Repeat this method as needed to progress toward the exit.
Once outside, use a jump and grapple swing to return to the Temple of Kukulkan Base Camp.
With this walkthrough, you’ve successfully navigated the Crypt South of Temple of Kukulkan, collected its treasure, and overcome its challenges. Keep exploring The Hidden City and beyond to uncover more secrets and treasures in Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
