The next section is just a hop, skip, and a jump away. Then again, you can also just waltz through the room, setting yourself on fire and healing with a snack. You can step into a safe zone between jets of fire and walk around as the capstan rotates, or you can run and jump over the capstan between the flames. You’ll emerge from this corridor to find a fire-spitting, spinning capstan. Wait for the first one to stop and walk through with confidence-the flames before you should stop shortly after the first, allowing an uninterrupted stroll. Pass through that door to behold another fiery corridor. Once activated, a giant spike trap will spring from the floor-right in the center of the room, where most of the skellies spawn. At least one of these resource barrels will conveniently have Firebombs within. Like the skull relief you used to enter this path, you’ll need to activate it using a Firebomb. There you will see a open-mouthed skull relief. Standing where you entered the room, look up to your right. There is a trap in this room that could help you make even quicker work of these Ashen Skeletons. You’ll need to fight your way through several waves of these skellies before you can safely use the pulley to the left of your next door. Soon, Ashen Skeletons will spawn from the ground. On the other side of this door, you’ll find a large room filled with resource barrels and ammo. Use that pulley to raise the door before you. Of course, if you filled your bucket before stepping through the door, you can also just throw caution to the wind, run wildly through the flames, and douse yourself with water once you’re through.Īt the end of this hallway, you’ll find a pulley. Just take the traps one at a time, waiting for the flames to stop and walking by unharmed. You might not be able to run through the entire corridor at once. Pass through the stone door and you will see your first fire trap: a hallway blocked by timed jets of fire.

Throw a Firebomb into its gaping mouth, and watch the stone door reveal your path. You will find its corresponding skull relief just above the lava waterfall on your left. The stone door on the left, bathed in blue light, is the Path of the Eternal King. ▶️ To see this section in action, click here. Click the path you chose to jump to that section of the guide! The path of the Eternal King The path of the Forsaken Flame The path of the Burning Heart The Path of the Eternal King We have written a detailed account of the traps and puzzles encountered on each of the three paths below. Once you’ve set your chosen skull afire, its door will open and you can set out on its treacherous path. It might come in handy should you need to douse the flames on yourself or a crewmate. You might also want to fill your bucket with water from the door on the left before leaving this room. There are resource barrels inside this room with plenty of Firebombs to go around. If you did not bring Firebombs with you, not to worry. Flames will burst forth from its gaping jaw, and the stone door will open. Throw a Firebomb at the skull you wish to go through. There’s one behind the lava waterfall on the right, one above the flowing waterfall on your left, and one on the ceiling to the left of the path that leads to the middle door. Near the hallways that lead to each of the three doors you will find a skull relief carved from the stone and a glowing skeleton symbol next to it. How do you open the doors in the Heart of Fire? Once you’ve decided which path you would like to take, you must open the door for that path.

This is partly because you will find a different journal along each of the paths. Second, to complete 100% of the commendations you will need to complete each path yourself. First, you might find certain portions of these paths easier with a crewmate. However, choosing separate paths might not be advisable. Interestingly, it seems that each crew member can choose to do a separate path. Along the path up to the door, off to the right, propped up against the wall, you will see the journal.Įach of the three doors in this chamber leads to one of the three possible paths-each with its own perils. In the center of this chamber, you will see a door emblazoned with the “Flame” symbol. So, you might want to read this journal before you leave. Once you leave this room, you cannot return.
