Tomb Raider Walkthrough Part 49 – Gone Missing (Cliffside Bunker to the Endurance)

There is more Salvage to be found on the opposite side from the container you want to jump onto it. Also, along the Southern wall on this level you will find the second Flag for the Previous Inhabitants Challenge. You can see it to the left of the crate. There are still 2 more flags to be found in the Bunker but you need to get onto the roof. Now you want to climb up onto the suspended container and shimmy over to the right. When you can climb up onto the platform the container has, cross it and jump over to the ledge.

When you get up onto the ledge,  turn to the right and look on the wall left of where you just came up. You will find the third Flag. Burn it then turn to the right and look for the tower. On its South Face you will find the final Flag. Hit it with a fire arrow to complete the set. Go over to the Eastern side of this roof and find the hole that will let you drop down onto the previous level. To the left of that you will find the Third GPS Cache in the grass. Now head to the south and drop down onto the level below where you can see the camp. Be sure to grab the second Document (Alex: Over His Head) that is sitting right by it.

After the camp stop over go just a little more to the South. Behind the boxes there you can find the Fourth GPS Cache. Take some time after that to go North into the garage and into the back of it to find the first Relic (Japanese 2 Sen Coin). Be sure to turn it around to learn more. With those items in hand go over to the post that is nearby. Look to the cliff face closest to your location to find a craggy climbing surface. Fire a Rope Arrow into it and take the Rope bridge over there. When you land, before making for the Endurance proper, look behind the rocks on the Southern part of this rise. You will find the Fifth and final GPS Cache of the area. After you have that head for the Red Tower and hop onto the Zipline to get over to the Endurance itself.

Once on board wait for the Massive Solarii (A Tank) to move the cargo into position. After that he will start talking with someone down stairs. Use this time to quickly pick off the other 2 Solarii Soldiers who are on the deck. After that you need to take down the Tank. This guy is very hardy and takes a lot to kill to say the least.  Taking more than 1 hit will kill Lara so be careful about that. First you need to dodge counter his attacks. After that he is stunned while he pulls the arrow out of his leg. Use this time to get out your shotgun and blast him in the head, repeatedly. After a number of successful head shots you will hear Lara tell this Tank she is about to kill him. To kill him you need to get in a successful Dodge Counter or wait for him to wear out (it takes a few charges) and then get a round from your shotgun off in his face. This will give you the finisher prompt. Close in and begin it. Thanks to just how durable this fellow is it takes 3 swings to kill him. Each needs to be timed well else he will intercept the blow and throw Lara away, forcing you to start over.

When the fight is over Lara will pull the Rope Ascender from his corpse. This will let her move much heavier objects and let her pull down the reinforced Rope Targets (there were a few on the way in that were skipped over). Start by targeting the Rope-Wrapped bit of cargo over the ship with a Rope Arrow. Make the connection and then hit the prompted button to use the Ascender to yank it over and send the metal crashing through the deck. Head on into that hole to begin searching the Endurance for Alex.
