RUINS OF WARFANG
Written by gamer900
Since I have been getting questions on how to get through the underground city of Warfang in the new game The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, I have decided to write a short walkthrough of this level. This will be of how to get through the story, it will NOT include all of the extras.
When you first start out, fly to your right to a far off platform that has a picture of a purple dragon on the wall and listen to the dialog between Spyro and Cynder. After the conversation you will notice a pile of weights in the corner, leave them alone for now. Head to your right and you will notice a wheel switch. Start to spin the wheel and you will be attacked by two waves of undead monkeys. Kill them all and finish spinning the wheel, which will lower a platform to your level. Now head back to the weights and pick one up. Go back to the platform and have the character that is holding the weight grab onto the platform. Switch characters and fly to your right. About half way a monkey flips a switch and blocks your path. Switch to the character holding the weight and leave the weight on the platform. Jump to the platform closest to you and use the vines to go to the upper platform. Here, you will encounter a small group of monkeys that can easily be killed with Cynder’s tornado move. Once the monkeys are killed, flip the switch and jump back onto the movable platform. Grab the weight and platform again and finish pulling the platform as far as it will go. As soon as your platform reaches the next area, you will be attacked by more monkeys. Drop the weight and kill all of the monkeys (Be careful not to lose the weight). Once the monkeys are all killed, pick up the weight again and cross the narrow bridge to what look like tuning forks. You will need Cynder for this next part. Put the weight in between the two forks and switch to Cynder, if you are not already her. Make sure that she has full manna and use fear on the two tuning forks until they make half of a bridge appear. As the bridge is coming out, quickly fly to the other side and use fear on the other two forks. Go back and grab the weight, and race back across bridge before it pulls apart. Once across the bridge, drop the weight on the pressure button and get ready for a fight with one of those big green guys. He grabs the crystal so you have to take him down. After he is defeated, grab the crystal and fly into the wind that appears once you grab the crystal. This will teleport you back to the beginning. Place the crystal in front of the dragon and another wind teleporter appears. Ride the wind to the next area. As soon as you land, you will be attacked by more monkeys. Once you have killed them, switch to Spyro and to his earth breath. On the right of the small green crystal, there will be a breakable wall. Turn into the earth ball and ram it until it shatters. Climb up the newly exposed vines and jump to the platform on your right. You will then see some more vines to you right. Jump over to them and make your way across the gap, be careful of the falling rocks. Once across, you should be on a platform with a health crystal in the center of it. Break it if you need it and jump down off the platform. here you will encounter more monkeys, so make quick work of them and have Cynder climb the vines right next to the green crystal. Once she is upside down, switch to Spyro and equip his earth breath. Swing from the tether and use Spyro as a wrecking ball to smash through the wall. Go through the opening and make your way to the second crystal. As you approach the crystal, a monkey goes and steals it. He is then joined by a fairly large group of monkeys that all attach you. Use Cynder’s tornado move to kill the monkeys easily. Once you have killed all of the monkeys, grab the crystal and ride the wind back to the start. Once there, place the crystal where it belongs and get ready for the next half of the level. Head now to the left of the doors and fly to a platform with what looks like a small pool on it. Head past the pool to another part of the platform with some wood on the floor. In the distance, you will see a group of vines, fly towards them and climb up them. At the top, you will see another ledge with climbable vines and the vines that you need to use fire on to get past them. Fly and climb your way to the ledge with the vines needing fire to get past. Here you will be attacked by a small amount of monkeys. Kill them quickly and head over to the green crystal. As you get closer, the camera should shift to the left, showing you another platform. Fly to it and defeat yet another green giant. After he is defeated, switch to Spyro and to fire (keep Spyro with fire for you will need it on the next part) and light the two torches that just appeared. After lighting them, switch to Cynder and fly towards the octagonal shape in the wall with vines in the middle of it. Have Cynder climb to the center and switch to Spyro. Swing Spyro around in a circle while breathing fire to light all four torches which then allows you to go and grab the crystal (monkeys will appear but they are optional to defeat). So with or without killing the monkeys, grab the crystal and head back to the start. Place the crystal where it belongs and ride the new wind teleporter to your left. Once you have landed, head left of the small waterfall and kill some more monkeys as they appear. After they have been taken care of, become Cynder and make sure that both dragons have a good amount of manna. Switch Cynder’s breath to shadow and use her secondary breath to travel underneath the door with the switch behind it. Pull the lever and a key looking pillar comes down. Now switch to Spyro and have him use his electric breath on the conduit right next to the door that Cynder had just opened. You have to do this next part fast or else the blocks will reset, blocking your path. Should that happen, you will have to electrocute the conduit and try again. Have one of the dragons jump up to the bottom of the “key” pillar and grab on. Quickly switch to the other dragon and pull the pillar as far left as you can go. Once in place, drop down from the pillar and fly over to the last crystal. Pick it up and take the last ride to the starting area. Place the crystal and congrats! You have completed Warfang!
This was my first walktrough so please; if you have any suggestions or anything like that, feel free to tell me. Thanks.

How do you get at the second crystal in the nderground? The area with the pit with the spike wall?

None that I've found. :/


Here's a funny incident:
Me and my friend were in the crystal-to-stone-dragon part, on the LAST CRYSTAL. I had i in my mouth. Then I dropped the crystal. Into a bottomless pit. I DROPPED IT. We spent like 15 minutes trying to figure out what to do.

how many times do you confront the golem?
