Skylanders® SuperChargers Guide › The Adventure › Vault of the Ancients

Chapter 43: Slumbering Spires

Walk into the new area and turn left as soon as you reach the first major circle. There is an Epic Treasure Chest tucked away down a short path. Grab it and then take the route on the right.

Jump between a few large outcroppings, and push the barricade at the top out of your way. An Energy Guardian is on the other side of that, and you soon have your first fight with one of these enemies. They’re vulnerable to your magnet. Pull them to spin the targets around and expose their crystals. Wail on those to destroy the Energy Guardians.

Defeat this small group and then use the SuperCharger Gate to the right to access a bonus area. This is fairly short, but the puzzle inside of it requires heavy use of your magnetic powers.

Go forward and into the main plaza ahead. Pull the moveable object inside the groove to the right side of the room. This activates a glowing stone on the same side. Stand on top of the stone and use your pull power to jump way above the floor. Get onto the platform to the right, and collect some treasure while getting to the very top of those ledges. Pull another little object into place there, and then drop back to the main floor. You’ve already solved half of the puzzle.

Pull the activator object in the main groove over to the left side this time. Use your push power to jump from the button that activate up to the left platform. Climb all the way up that one use the magnet to pull and push blocks out of your way. By now, this should be very simple to perform.

Pull the activator up top into position and watch the treasure room below open. Climb back down and get the Epic Treasure Chest that’s your reward for beating this place!

Leave via the Gate and then use a block along the upper wall to proceed. Pull the block up underneath your Skylander to reach the next tier.

Get into a Sea Vehicle and look for a challenge up ahead.

Power the Core

This Sea Star Challenge has a moderate bit of fighting, but the major focus is still on the puzzles that dominate the area. Your job is to go through each portion of the map and charge the Rods that are out of position. You do this using your pull power. Go up to each shaft and rotate your ship around it. Make sure that you rotate the Rods so that their hooks are facing inward; otherwise they won’t be able to make contact with their power supplies.

Near the entrance, look on the right side of the first aquatic room you get to. There is a small cubby with a Red Toolbox.

Other than that, you only have to fight off basic attackers and activate all of the Rods that you come to. This gives power to the Core and completes the challenge. Find a second Red Toolbox in the last area, hidden behind destructible crystals.

You are returned to the main map. Pull the block down on the wall to the right and jump onto it. Climb up and make your way through a couple of upcoming fights. The Energy Guardians and their lesser buddies are a moderate threat. Watch out for ranged attacks while you’re busy with the Energy Guardians; don’t be afraid to back off and avoid attacks even if you’re in the middle of a good combo.

It’s sometimes easier to ditch the Energy Guardians, kill their smaller buddies, and then attack the heavier targets last.

There are several good things to collect in this part of the map, and they can be tough to find. After the big Energy Guardian fight, look for a tiny staircase at the back-left side of the room. Climb all the way down to discover a Wish Stone. Get back to the top by reversing your tracks and your polarity! Another hidden item is farther right from there. When going through a series of strong magnetic vents, make sure to search the bottom of the tunnels. An Epic Treasure Chest is below you!

The map eventually leads up to the top where there is a Land Vehicle Transition. Get in something that’s well equipped, and start the engagement.

A couple of modest waves of enemies attack, but there aren’t any bosses. Destroy them first and then work on a puzzle afterward. Three activators appear. You have to slot them into the doors at the far end of the room. Pull the three as close as you can to the doors and then get behind them to push them the rest of the way in. Once all of them are locked in place you finish the chapter and move out.
