Legend Peru: The Three Stone Spheres Puzzle

Why standing on the pads does not work

The chamber beyond the flooded ruins has three pressure pads and three large statues. Lara is not heavy enough to finish the mechanism herself: each pad needs a stone sphere.

Find and place the spheres

1. Roll the sphere already in the chamber onto the nearest pad. The statue changes position, but its broken ladders are not yet a usable route.
2. Look toward the pit and locate the pillar supporting another sphere. Pull the pillar down with the magnetic grapple.
3. Roll this second sphere onto the right-hand pad when facing the statues. Its statue opens a complete ladder route.
4. Climb the ladder, transfer across the face holds where necessary, and reach the top. Push the remaining sphere off the statue.
5. Climb down and place that sphere on the middle pad. Once the spheres occupy the pads, the passage opens.

Keep the level’s two visits separate

Peru includes a motorcycle sequence and a flashback before the present-day exploration. Do not search the flashback route for the final chamber’s movable objects. If following a video, match Lara’s current location and equipment before copying a jump.
