Broken bridge, Roller-Riddle and Medusa | Chapter 5: The Village of Kirra GoW: Ascension Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Further road goes through a hut in left. Use it and run onto a wooden bridge, which will break. When you fell, defeat quickly few hounds and flying enemies.
After that search the area. You'll find a green chest. On left from it is an open building. Inside you find a red chest and white one with Gorgon Eye.
On the right from green chest is a way to an optional riddle with a roller. If you solve it, you'll get an access to four chests: two red and two white with Gorgon Eye and Phoenix Feather. After passing a narrow corridor you get to a round chamber, when a roller is moving in circles. There are levers in the middle of the room.
When the roller passes an entrance, follow him carefully until you find a barricade of boards. Break it and jump onto a platform.
There you find three levers controlling stone blocks of the outer circle. First one pulls out three smaller blocks on right from the platform with chests, second one pulls out medium-size block on left from the chests and the third one pulls out the biggest block. When the roller hits blocks, they hide again.
Solution: use three small blocks to reach chests, while two bigger ones will slow down the roller. When the roller passes the biggest block, pull out the biggest block, the medium-size block and then three small ones. After that run to small blocks and jump up to a platform with chests. You have to make it before roller hits all blocks. If you don't, return to the middle platform and try once again. When you open the chests pull the lever nearby to stop roller and return to where the last encounter has taken place.
Now find a column just under a statue (nearby the broken bridge). You can make it fall with your chains standing on a glowing point.
Use the debris to jump onto wooden beams and enter the higher level.
Here, you'll fight the Medusa. She is agile and moves in an original way, but her attacks are predictable.
Her feature is a stoning sight. Run away from the red light from her head. Standing in its ray too long will turn you into stone - if so, tussle to get out quickly or you'll be broken into pieces.
Medusa can't be knocked up into air so you have to fight her like an elephant and cyclope. Avoid her attacks moving back, make few hits/short combo and avoid again. Try not get pressed to the wall. Finish her with a grab - but remember about avoiding her desperate attacks.
After that go through gate and enter the building. While running inside, heal and regenerate mana using two chests.
A bit later you run into a group of parasites and a corridor leading left. Search it and move on.
