You know your mission; enter Mount Qaf and save Prince Ghassan. Now that you are here, how do you survive this perilous place to complete your mission? Upon entering Mount Qaf you will be met with enemies to teach you how to use your abilities along your journey. Be sure to pay attention to the skills and techniques that will be shown to you. Some tips to help you along your journey: [h3][b]1. Parry and Dodge! [/b][/h3] The art of parrying requires good timing, [i](trust me I would know)[/i] but it negates the damage and leaves the enemy open for a counterattack. Note that the parry can also deflect projectiles. Some enemies can perform a Reckless Attack, indicated by a yellow light flashing up in their eyes. If you get the timing right and parry these attacks, the enemy takes significant damage during an exciting and powerful counterattack animation. Don't miss the chance There are some attacks that you cannot parry, and they hurt! Dodge out of the way when you see the eyes of your enemies light up in red to avoid getting hit. [h3][b]2. Use your Time Powers.[/b][/h3] As you journey along Mount Qaf you will gain more Time Powers to aid you in your path. So, fret not if you see a blocked path or seemingly untraversable terrain. Future time powers might be just the key to pass them. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45058788/9924d96a2642f0d5abecfa76971e9a579af999e9.jpg[/img] [h3][b]3. Adjust the Difficulty. [/b][/h3] There are plenty of features that enable you to adapt the game’s difficulty to your playstyle in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown If you feel out of breath or overwhelmed with your initially chosen difficulty, rest assured that you can adjust them at any point on your journey.
