thank you! I spent half and hour dying before looking this up. Tried again for another half an hour. Gave up and went back to it the next day and did it after 3 tries! 10 years later and this is still so helpful!
If they’d broken down how to do adrenaline dodge in the first instance this would be much easier. Especially since the Dino level was ages ago. Thanks Stella. I’ve been using your walkthroughs since the 90s. You’re undeniably the queen of tomb raider x
You are a diamond Stella, this is by far the best breakdown I've ever seen. Amazing. Once mastered this is a very cool boss battle, otherwise so annoyingly frustrating!
Yay! finally got it. Thanks so much Stella, I've been using your walkthroughs for years brings me back to my younger years and the early tombraider series back on PS1 and PS2 you've never steered me in the wrong direction!!Thanks Again
I agree with you to a certain extent; however, I think a lot of fans of the Tomb Raider series are not typical shooter players. Many have gravitated to this series because they enjoy puzzles and exploration, and are glad the combat is mostly easier. Consequently, I've found a fair number of players do have difficulty with this game's boss fights. I try to offer what help I can. Making fun of people who are having trouble, does not qualify as help, IMO.
amen!! they are hard enough for me! I never play war themed and shooter games I love this one because of the puzzles and exploration theme and yes I might suck at fights but getting better every day thanks to you :)
Everyone pls listen up l been stuck for long time in this fight until l discovered this glitch in the Option menu go to Display then trun off hint icons.Im playing on ps3 btw ☺️l hope l helped you!
Thanks much!!! I was playing for days and couldn't kill these guys. I didn't know how to get the head shot. Once i saw this, the battle was actually enjoyable. Still took me a number of times, but I made progress and got to the next level!
Thank you so much for this video, up until I came across your video now, it’s taken me almost four months and I still couldn’t figure out how to defeat the centaurs. You video is the best, so helpful. Am looking forward to other videos about “The Pyramid “.
This helped me soooooo much, I could just not figure out how to to the adrenalin dodge, I had looked at so many tutorials and they all said the same thing and I just wan't getting it, I watched your vid and I got it first time! Just small little details I had not been doing, Thanks a bunch!
This is the worst boss fight in the history of video gaming. There is absolutely NO hint that you can remove their shields, they freeze you and kick you to take half health away and then even with headshots they don't take any damage. Basically just an acrobatic show against invulnerable enemies until you run out of health packs. Rant over. Thanks for the video, now I can finally get past this point and lower my blood pressure in the process.
Thanks! For what it's worth, I also spent hours on this fight. Of course this video was made after I'd mastered it, and shows the sequence as clearly as I can manage. For every minute of video on this channel, there are probably 100 minutes of gameplay on the proverbial cutting room floor. ;) Not sure what else to offer by way of advice, but you're welcome to email (link on my site) and tell me which parts are giving you trouble and I'll try and help if I can. :)
@Komodoensis You're welcome. I'm so glad it was helpful. The Legend headshot was a *lot* easier than this, IMO, but practice does make perfect. If you have an earlier save or can replay the Lost Valley and practice on the T. rex, it may help. This sequence--with the 2 fast enemies--is really a challenge especially if you're trying to learn the maneuver for the first time. Good luck!
Thanks a million, love playing but not the greatest , have been stuck here for a while,was stuck on the very last bit of the headshot manouver but your step by step tuition solved that !
Hi, Kathryn.On the 360, the controls for the adrenaline dodge are LT (target lock) + Left Stick (movement) + B (crouch)...then RT (fire). But it's all about the timing. In order for the move to work, you need to watch/listen to what's happening on-screen and respond at the right time. If the video isn't helping with the timing, maybe the step-by-step written instructions will. Follow the links in the video description for those. And feel free to contact me w/ any questions. Good luck!
Thank you so much for posting this video! I was having a lot of trouble getting the adrenaline dodge/head shot right and died quite a few times. But after checking out this video, I realized what I'd been doing wrong and beat the centaurs on my very next try! :)
This is where I stopped playing when this game first came out (anniversary addition). It was just way too hard and scary for me lol. Just started it up again yesterday and now I’m ready for these two
Sorry if I repeat something previous, but I have struggled a lot regarding adrenaline dodging. I just found out when reading through the attached instructions of the game, that the L1-button (lock-on-target) is the essential one. When I had this one activated during a rage attack the dodging worked perfect.
OMG i have followed you since way back in the TR1 you have helped me with all the TR games so much over the years , cant believe i found you on you tube, ps, they used to be times when i was ripping my hair out lol trying to figure out levels and then i found Stellas Walk throughs way back in late 90s i think ,
I played TR1 in late 90's but didn't even had internet on my old pc so I didn't know about this amazing site than, would've saved me so many tears and days lol... but I guess that is the charm of the game :)
basically just make sure you hold target lock the entire time when doing adrenaline shot and jump backwards not side to side its alot easier. once you know the correct tactics to do its simple. does take a while to get it down tho. this video helped me alot so thankyou xx
Thank you so much! i watched other videos and read walkthroughs but i couldnt get it. I almost stopped playing but when i watched your video i was able to beat the bosses on the first try. Thanks! :)
Ok 15 hours of trying on PS3 and I finally got passed this awful boss. So swim down to the cave using health packs if needed, wait for the health bar of the centaur to vanish. Now there is only one to defeat. Shoot and dodge the first attack then hold R2 and shoot will R1 until it gets angry then release R1 but keep R2 pressed... the rest is easy. I read everywhere to hold L1 to target but its R2 not L1 the documentation is incorrect.
@femputer1 Thanks so much. Glad you like it. I usually use advanced hold combat mode but I play with an Xbox style controller (on the PC). It's a little easier on the fingers using the trigger buttons rather than the mouse.
Yes, that's right. The button is different on each system, but you're correct that you must maintain a target lock for the dodge to work. Maybe I'll add annotations for the various controls for each system. When I first posted this video I didn't know how to do that.
Massively overcomplicated boss fights after the relative ease of the rest of the game is just soooooo unnecessary! How would you even figure to do this without looking it up!?!
Exactly my thoughts lol. You'd never that those shields can be dropped or that they reflect or that holstering your weapons makes you immune to becoming stone
I remember when I was a kid I used to play all the levels with the boss battles over and over again, they were my favourite parts of the whole game. Little Kiddy Me, who came from Quake 3 and loved TR Legend, always loved combat over anything else, so I played the combat-heavy levels on repeat. Come to think of it, the fact that Egypt doesn't have a proper boss fight is probably why I remember so little of it by comparison.... The hardest part about these Centaurs in particular was wrestling with the controls - constantly getting petrified when you could have SWORN you'd looked away in time, or when Lara just didn't want to pick up the shield for some reason.
You're very welcome. Glad the walkthrough and videos were helpful. And, yes, there's a link to my Facebook Page on my TH-cam channel page--top of the right column. Hope to see you there. :)
Excellent video for this boss battle! I actually did this on the hardest mode and it was very an awesome fight. For those having a problem... just remember like they say... stay near the shields when they drop them and shoot like a mad woman. Once you have both shields, the battle is gets alot easier! Also remember that when you are attacking one of them in the stone version or while they are rage dodging you, the other will not attack you! :)
If you haven't managed it yet I would recommend standing well back and holding only left or right (A or D on my keyboard) when they are enraged, then as they charge press the dodge button (Shift) when you see the arrows appear in the bottom right, she will then dodge and give you get the head shot targets. If you hold just back key (S) they tend to charge you down more easily.
@Metallicat180 WHEN THEY CHARGE AT U, DONT MOVE OUT THE WAY JUST PRESS CIRCLE IF UR ON PS3 WHEN THE CIRCLE BUTTON APPEARS THEN WAIT TILL THE 2 CIRCLES MEET IN THE HEAD U SHOULD SEE THEM CLOSING IN, WHEN ITS TIME TO FIRE 1 SHOT THE CIRCLE SHOWS UP RED, MAKE SURE U ARE FAST THOUGH AND DONT FIRE UNTIL THE CIRCLE TURNS RED, BTW STELLA UR WALKTHROUGH HAS HELPED ME ON ALL THE PARTS IV GOT STUCK ON LOL THANK U
U MAKE THIS LOOK SO INCREDIBLY EASY. I struggled with this for months - & i think it looks more fun to kill them this way than diving back underwater 2 the entrance-key cave & waiting it out while they slay 1 another (which is what some people do). This looks more fun though...I'm definitly gonna try this 2day. I think Underworld more kicked ass than this 1 - it was scary, exciting, an adrenaline rush, the graphics were a huge improvement. Haven't played the new 1 though
Hi! I've been a regular user of your site for Anniversary and Legend. It is SUCH a pleasure to watch the smooth action in your videos - relics & boss! Ive spent hours (vs your 1.5 mns!!) on Centaurs, best I could manage is get shields off them both, by which time Lara's health is all gone :-'( .... Slow death doesn't work for me... health only goes down to last quarter, no more...
The Wii version is a little different. Shoot one centaur until it becomes enraged. Then stop shooting but maintain a target lock by holding Z. When the centaur charges, keep holding Z and move to the left or right using the control stick. As you do this, shake the nunchuk from side to side or press Crouch. Lara will then leap to the side while keeping a lock on the enemy. A red targeting reticule will appear over the enemy's head. Use the Wii Remote to aim inside this target and then fire.
@sexy350Zowner I'm not sure what to add beyond what's in the video, but if you haven't already looked at the Anniversary controls page linked in the video description, I recommend it. It describes the timing of the maneuver and lists the controls for all systems. Feel free to email if you still have questions after reading it. There's a contact link on the site. Good luck! :)
That's what this video is about. Please watch the slow-motion breakdown of the adrenaline dodge move (starting at 1:55) and follow the link in the description if you're not sure which buttons to press. If it still doesn't make sense, by all means, post any questions, but please include which system you're using, since the exact controls vary. Good luck! :)
Have you looked at the written walkthrough linked in the video description? That includes screenshots and step-by-step instructions for the adrenaline dodge, as well as general strategy for the fight. You're also welcome to email or PM. If I could get some idea of where exactly you're having trouble, I might be able to give some advice.
I personally found it easier to dodge to either side. The centaur would usually run over Lara if I went straight back, but if that worked for you, great. Glad the video was helpful. :)
Wish I had a solution. Sometimes the cave trick works and sometimes it doesn't. :( Anything I can do to help with the dodge maneuver? I take it you've read the step-by-step breakdown on the site linked in the description. I'd be happy to coach you if you want to drop me an email or DM.
@@guzikzapasowydekoszula6492 The breakdown section starts at 1:55. Examples of the dodge are at around 3:20 and 4:58. When the center charges, aim but don't shoot, move to the left or right (forward/back can work too, but it's easier to get trampled) and crouch all at the same time. That should trigger the dodge maneuver if you time it correctly.
Thank you!!!! i really tried this over and over again. my headshot was really bad. kept on pressing the wrong button at time. (i dont use it much in the game and also in Underworld) gonna start using it now. thanks again :D. Subscribed
Really thanks man. You are my saviour :-D After 15 tries 20 small medipack and 12 large, i search for some tips, if u know what i mean ;-) and i saw your video :-DDD
My written walkthrough includes some commentary as you progress through the game, but there's a decent synopsis on Wikipedia as well. TH-cam doesn't allow links in comments, but you can find the link to my site on my channel page, and if you google "Tomb Raider Anniversary plot summary" the Wikipedia page will probably be first or second in the search results.
Bummer. Guess I'll have to come over then. :) Seriously though, if you want to email and describe what you're doing with the controls, maybe I can offer some suggestions. My contact info is on my main site, tombraiders period net.
If you're playing on PC, Mac, Wii, or PSP you can download a save file from my site: tombraiders.net/stella/savegame/TRAsaves.html Otherwise, I'm happy to try and coach you through the mechanics of the adrenaline dodge if you're still not sure how it works. If you understand the dodge but just find the fight against multiple enemies too hard, I'm not sure what to suggest except maybe take a break and come back to it later. Sorry. :(
I have to agree with you, najarey. The game does teach you what you need to know but gradually. The first adrenaline dodge on the bear in Vilcabamba, then the T. rex. By the time you get to the centaurs, you should have the basic skills needed to defeat them, but it's still hard, like a boss fight should be. The new TR game, with all its prompts and tutorials feels like it's spoon feeding me, which I don't like.
@MsJadeJess Thanks! I know what you mean. Even when you know what to do, it's still hard. Naturally I didn't post the dozens of times I failed, since I didn't think that would be too helpful for other players. ;) Good luck! I hope you beat it soon.
I cannot do it at all!! Cant belive it! Im gutted, Ive got this far into the game and having to give up. No will to try Anniversary unless I complete this. Its a blow. Wish I had never started the dam thing!
Yay! I beat those centurian bastards, using the tips I saw on this video! Beating the centurians was almost as hard as playing through Mirrors Edge, which I count as the hardest game ever made. You just have to do the dodge move correctly, and you can take the centaurs down.
If the video instructions aren't helping, maybe check the step-by-step written instructions in the walkthrough (linked in the video description). You need to maintain a target lock during the whole process. The key for this is different depending on which system you're playing on, but the written walk lists all buttons for all systems. Good luck! :)
feel the same .... the strategyis so complicated, by the time i figured which button to press the centaurs already ate my life... i tried a hundred times...but only once got a centaur to show the ring but then while dodging i fell in water...so couldnt use grapple.
I don't have a suggestions for fixing a corrupt profile, but you're welcome to download one of mine to get back to the level where you left off. You may have to replay a little, since I only uploaded profiles for the very end of each level. TH-cam doesn't allow links in comments, but you can go to my channel page and follow the link back to my site. Or just google "tomb raider anniversary save files" and you should find my page at or near the top of the results.
This was one of the most frustrating and hardest- to-get-through TR moments I ever encountered in TR! Arg! I hate the Adrenaline Dodge! ;P Getting through felt good though!
thank you! I spent half and hour dying before looking this up. Tried again for another half an hour. Gave up and went back to it the next day and did it after 3 tries! 10 years later and this is still so helpful!

this fight is killing me... literally! :)) you did it under 2min... wow! thank you for this
MMaya You're welcome. I hope the video was helpful. Of course there were plenty of failures that didn't make it into the final version. 😉
Everyone pls listen up l been stuck for long time in this fight until l discovered this glitch in the Option menu go to Display then trun off hint icons.Im playing on ps3 btw ☺️l hope l helped you!

Rant over. Thanks for the video, now I can finally get past this point and lower my blood pressure in the process.
imagine you grew up to learn that one of your parents worked on this game
if you take a look into laras journal during this boss fight you get a small hint :D however the hint did not helped me :D
Fuuuuuuuuuh, this is hard as hell. I'm prepared to put in a couple hours tonight, thanks for these tips! Outstanding playing and breakdown!!!
You're welcome! I hope it helps. Good luck!
Thanks! For what it's worth, I also spent hours on this fight. Of course this video was made after I'd mastered it, and shows the sequence as clearly as I can manage. For every minute of video on this channel, there are probably 100 minutes of gameplay on the proverbial cutting room floor. ;)

Amazing video walkthrough Stella, explains it perfectly and you make it look so easy. Now its time to finally kick some centaur butt!
@Komodoensis You're welcome. I'm so glad it was helpful. The Legend headshot was a *lot* easier than this, IMO, but practice does make perfect. If you have an earlier save or can replay the Lost Valley and practice on the T. rex, it may help. This sequence--with the 2 fast enemies--is really a challenge especially if you're trying to learn the maneuver for the first time. Good luck!
Thanks a million, love playing but not the greatest , have been stuck here for a while,was stuck on the very last bit of the headshot manouver but your step by step tuition solved that !
The best breakdown ever made.Finally i killed these horses.Thanks stella for this video.
Worked like an absolute charm, thank you Stella! - Now I can continue on my adventure through Egypt...
You're saving our lives 😢❤!! My dad and I are going through hell with this fight 😅😆
Don't give up. You've got this! ❤️❤️❤️
Wow, like a pro! Your gameplay is so fluent, I love it.
Spent ages trying to slay those beasts. Watched this vid and KERPOW! Did it in one go. Good effort. Cheers.
All right! Go, you! :D Glad the video was helpful.
Hi, Kathryn.On the 360, the controls for the adrenaline dodge are LT (target lock) + Left Stick (movement) + B (crouch)...then RT (fire). But it's all about the timing.

Level 6, The Coliseum, is the first opportunity, but it's also available in this level, Tomb of Tihocan, and again in Level 12, Natla's Mines.
THANK YOU!!!! Your video was amazing. It really helped me to understand. Those centaurs are now TOAST!!!!
Thank you so much for posting this video! I was having a lot of trouble getting the adrenaline dodge/head shot right and died quite a few times. But after checking out this video, I realized what I'd been doing wrong and beat the centaurs on my very next try! :)

Awesome! Good luck!
I don't have a PlayStation, but I think Crouch is Circle. So move left or right and press Circle while maintaining a target lock (L1).
Thanks man, you just made my life a lot easier, you deserve more subscribers. Hats down.🎩🙂

Also keep it up.
You're very welcome. Glad the video was helpful. Have fun in Egypt!

+Claire Atkinson You're very welcome. I'm glad it was helpful. This is a tough section! :)
I just finished this boss fight.. so far the most aggravating one from TRA from what I've played of it x)
Thank God you reminded me how to do this, I just beat Greece today with a 5 hour time since I started mountain caves! Now I'm on the temple of Khamoon
Thank you so much! I have been trying forever to get past this level and have never been able to do until now so thanks!
@femputer1 Thanks so much. Glad you like it. I usually use advanced hold combat mode but I play with an Xbox style controller (on the PC). It's a little easier on the fingers using the trigger buttons rather than the mouse.

Thank you!!! I was stuck there for ages!!!
@infernio96 i dont agree, i think this is the best tomb raider iv played out of every single 1 they have made. they did a fantastic job remaking it
Thank you so much for this video. I don't think I would've known how to kill them without it.
This video was made on the medium difficulty setting. So, yes, I believe it does kill Lara on medium/hard.
finally. lol thanks to you i've done it. a big thank you
This video was very helpful. I had no idea how to defeat these things lol. Using your method I defeated them on the very first try.
U MAKE THIS LOOK SO INCREDIBLY EASY.

oh wow I don't remember commenting here. 9 years ago I ended up ragequitting at this part and didn't pick up the game again.
Thank you!!!!!! Been trying for so long to do this part!!!
Wish I had a solution. Sometimes the cave trick works and sometimes it doesn't. :( Anything I can do to help with the dodge maneuver? I take it you've read the step-by-step breakdown on the site linked in the description. I'd be happy to coach you if you want to drop me an email or DM.
Thank you very very much! Really helped me here
I was wondering why 130 rounds of .50AE to these things would do zero damage. Thanks for the guide!
I'm glad the video helped. Congrats! :D
*Crouch* is Left Shift on the PC, Circle on PlayStation/PSP, B on Xbox 360.
Stella - when exactly "crouch" ? i trieded many times on my PS3 and still nothing damm :/
@@guzikzapasowydekoszula6492 The breakdown section starts at 1:55. Examples of the dodge are at around 3:20 and 4:58. When the center charges, aim but don't shoot, move to the left or right (forward/back can work too, but it's easier to get trampled) and crouch all at the same time. That should trigger the dodge maneuver if you time it correctly.
Just got a subscriber. Thank you soo much!!!
i read your step by step, i got through it now, thanks, my pad nearly went off the wall trying to get through this lol thanks alot :)
Thank you!!!! i really tried this over and over again. my headshot was really bad. kept on pressing the wrong button at time. (i dont use it much in the game and also in Underworld) gonna start using it now. thanks again :D. Subscribed
This has been very helpful to me. Thank you.
I was stuck for ages. Rage quit twice. Thanks
thanks for telling me how to make the videos it was very helpful :)
YES I FINALLY DID IT!Thank you so so much for this tutorial!!:D
Really thanks man. You are my saviour :-D After 15 tries 20 small medipack and 12 large, i search for some tips, if u know what i mean ;-) and i saw your video :-DDD
My written walkthrough includes some commentary as you progress through the game, but there's a decent synopsis on Wikipedia as well. TH-cam doesn't allow links in comments, but you can find the link to my site on my channel page, and if you google "Tomb Raider Anniversary plot summary" the Wikipedia page will probably be first or second in the search results.
It should be Interact, the same button you use for pulling levers, etc., so E if you're using the keyboard and haven't changed anything.
Bummer. Guess I'll have to come over then. :) Seriously though, if you want to email and describe what you're doing with the controls, maybe I can offer some suggestions. My contact info is on my main site, tombraiders period net.
Yep! Found it! Helped me a lot! You are the best!
I have been stuck on this for hours. I wish I could just cheat past it but I can't even do that. So frustrating
If you're playing on PC, Mac, Wii, or PSP you can download a save file from my site: tombraiders.net/stella/savegame/TRAsaves.html Otherwise, I'm happy to try and coach you through the mechanics of the adrenaline dodge if you're still not sure how it works. If you understand the dodge but just find the fight against multiple enemies too hard, I'm not sure what to suggest except maybe take a break and come back to it later. Sorry. :(
U saved my day !
I agree, but I still think this is the best of the newer games by a long shot.
I have to agree with you, najarey. The game does teach you what you need to know but gradually. The first adrenaline dodge on the bear in Vilcabamba, then the T. rex. By the time you get to the centaurs, you should have the basic skills needed to defeat them, but it's still hard, like a boss fight should be. The new TR game, with all its prompts and tutorials feels like it's spoon feeding me, which I don't like.
I'm a lady, but I still appreciate the compliment. Glad the video was helpful. :D
I did it. After all these years. Finally!
@MsJadeJess Thanks! I know what you mean. Even when you know what to do, it's still hard. Naturally I didn't post the dozens of times I failed, since I didn't think that would be too helpful for other players. ;) Good luck! I hope you beat it soon.
I cannot do it at all!! Cant belive it! Im gutted, Ive got this far into the game and having to give up. No will to try Anniversary unless I complete this. Its a blow. Wish I had never started the dam thing!
Thank you so much you are a lifesaver
Finally got those freaking Horseman
🤘😎
I remember when I played this for the first time, I took about two weeks to figure out alone what I should do to defeat them. Really miss this game.
It was on sale on Steam a few days ago.
Yay! I beat those centurian bastards, using the tips I saw on this video! Beating the centurians was almost as hard as playing through Mirrors Edge, which I count as the hardest game ever made. You just have to do the dodge move correctly, and you can take the centaurs down.
If the video instructions aren't helping, maybe check the step-by-step written instructions in the walkthrough (linked in the video description). You need to maintain a target lock during the whole process. The key for this is different depending on which system you're playing on, but the written walk lists all buttons for all systems. Good luck! :)
Thank you so mutch now i can continu playing
@ybron90 I can't believe you did that. That's amazing! Congrats! And I'm glad the video was helpful. :D
feel the same .... the strategyis so complicated, by the time i figured which button to press the centaurs already ate my life... i tried a hundred times...but only once got a centaur to show the ring but then while dodging i fell in water...so couldnt use grapple.
I don't have a suggestions for fixing a corrupt profile, but you're welcome to download one of mine to get back to the level where you left off. You may have to replay a little, since I only uploaded profiles for the very end of each level. TH-cam doesn't allow links in comments, but you can go to my channel page and follow the link back to my site. Or just google "tomb raider anniversary save files" and you should find my page at or near the top of the results.
Thanks so much for your help! I would have given up if not for the really helpful videos.
This was one of the most
frustrating and hardest-
to-get-through TR moments
I ever encountered in TR! Arg!
I hate the Adrenaline Dodge! ;P
Getting through felt good though!
Oh my had to study for this like a test
You're welcome to sneak a look at my paper. 😉
Thanks so much for the compliment (and the sub). I'm glad my site has been helpful. Take care and raid on! :D
