With Pandora located, Pit is sent directly into her hidden pocket dimension.
Upon entering the Labyrinth of Deceit, you notice that nothing looks like anything else found in Skyworld, the Earth, or the Underworld. You’re also attacked by a swarm of Komaytos. Red posts are scattered throughout the first passage, and should be avoided. On higher Intensities this can be problematic, as you’re going to be under heavy fire from all the enemies.
After nearly getting plastered against a pair of trick walls, you’re blasted down more corridors until you reach a section where you fly at high speed toward multiple sets of doors . Only one door in each set will open, depending on which side of the hall Pit is flying on.
Palutena’s navigational skills are not working so well here.
A set of revolving doors guarded by a swarm of Monoeyes and Monoliths can be deceptively hard to navigate.
If you’ve got a Special Attack charged, it’s a good idea to use it during the Handora swarm Palutena warns you about.
Just remember to concentrate on evasion and shooting your targets, no matter how strange things get. Beware of Ganewmedes that are hiding among a group of enemies. They cause a lot of damage very quickly with the spiked balls they shoot out every time you shoot them.
After more confusing dead ends, you reach a cavelike area with massive crystalline spires. Those pillars will reflect your shots back at you, so check your fire! Many enemies attack you during this section, so this is another good place to use your Special Attacks.
When you reach this pair of jump pads, you’re close to the end.
The last stretch can be pretty rough, regardless of whichever jump pad you picked. If you still have a Special Attack ready to fire, you can clear out the swarms of enemies before they combine into something more dangerous. If you do make it this far, congratulations, you just got through the front door!
