Toxic Swamp - Second Gateway Crypt and Maze Reward Challenge

Proceed to the pressure pad to the NW. Move carefully between the nearby pods or jump over them to reach the pad. If any of the pods pop, quickly move against the far wall to avoid taking damage.

Stepping on the pad in the corner opens the gate to the right. Wait for any toxic gas to clear and then jump back over the pods and enter the area with the 2 pressure pads.

Have each character step on one of the pads to lower the wooden barriers. Then use grenade launchers to destroy the giant gears diagonally opposite.

When both gears have been destroyed, a cut scene shows the huge gate outside opening.

The gate beyond the second pressure pad also opens, so you can exit the maze near the AMMO CACHE.

If your character didn't touch any poison while navigating the maze, as you exit the crypt, you'll beat the challenge and earn a Stone Lizard Artifact (- defense, + bomb).
