Dragon's Lair - Dark Anteroom - Fiamma Nera Cultists
In the first section, you destroyed several Xian warriors and opened the way to the next room. There are 6 cult members (6-10) lurking ahead among the pillars. You can draw them out two at a time by advancing slowly into the room with weapons drawn.
As soon as the first two men (5-6) emerge from hiding, back out of the room firing.
Then backflip...
...and side flip as needed to avoid their throwing daggers. Uzis work well here, and one enemy drops 2 sets of Uzi clips (4-5) to replenish your supply. The other drops a large medi pack (6).
Repeat the same tactics: Advance into the dark room. As you pass the second set of square columns, the next 2 cultists (7-8) appear on the left and right. Get a lock on one of them and back up into the previous room...
...where there's room to fight without spawning more enemies.
They drop 4 sets of Uzi ammo (7-10).
Finally, move into the middle of the dark room...
...and approach the large gate. The last 2 enemies (9-10) spawn on the left and right.
There's room to maneuver here, so you should be OK.
They leave behind a small medi pack (11) and a MYSTIC PLAQUE (12). Make sure you have all the pickups so far. Then use the Plaque in the receptacle beside the gate to open it.
Go through, follow the hallway to a short ramp and slide down into the Dragon's Lair.
DARK MODE: I plan to add optional dark mode for these pages, but my current priority is updating the walkthroughs. Meanwhile, may I suggest a reputable dark mode browser extension, such as Dark Reader? (Download only from trusted sites, like darkreader.org or your browser's official add-on/extension site.)
