Head north and open both of the chests for hearts and rupees. Head back east and stack all of the doppels on the center purple platform. Unstack them and wait for the soldier to the north to toss a Bomb. Quickly pick it up and toss it at the switch to the southwest.
Make sure all of the doppels are on the purple platform as they will be raised when the Bomb activates the switch. Now toss two of the doppels across the gap to the north and use the Boomerang doppel to pull the remaining doppel across.
You can now break pots or defeat the soldiers for hearts and rupees if desired. Once you are ready – head north to find the Triforce Gateway. Place all of the doppels on the Triforce Gateway to be transported to stage 4 of the Sealed Gateway.
Sealed Gateway - Stage 4
Take all of the doppels north and get on the raising platform. Ride it to the middle level and defeat the soldier to the east. Be sure to get to the chest to the west for some rupees and get back on the platform. Ride it to the top and head north. Defeat the soldier and continue north.
Use the Gust Jar doppel to push the other two doppels across the gap to the north. Defeat the soldiers and place the doppels on the switches to activate a small bridge. Take the remaining doppel across to the north and continue north.
Take the Gust Jar doppel up the ledge on the east and face to the west towards the hanging barriers. Use the Gust Jar to make them start swinging and take a Boomerang doppel across the path to the north and activate the switch.

Once they are defeated – the Triforce Gateway to the north will appear. Place all of the doppels on it to be transported to the end of the Sealed Gateway. Pick a chest to the north for some materials and you will be transported back to Hytopia to prepare for the next challenge, which is the Bomb Storage.
Back in Hytopia – simply check out for any new outfits at Madame Couture’s shop and be sure to play the Daily Riches if available. Now head back to the Drablands to take on the Bomb Storage.
Level 2: Bomb Storage
Bomb Storage - Stage 1
Head north and get all of the weapons. Put the doppels near the ledge to the northwest and use a Gust Jar doppel to blow the others across the gap to the west. Place the doppels on the switches to activate a small bridge. Bring the remaining doppel across to find a breakable window to the north.
Use a Gust Jar doppel to blow the Bomb Flower across the gap to the north and blow open the window. Repeat this process again to activate the newly found switch. Take all of the doppels across the bridge to the west and defeat the creatures.
Use the Bomb doppel to toss a bomb near the ledge to the north but south of the breakable window. Quickly use the Gust Jar doppel to blow it across the gap and break the window. Repeat to activate the switch to the north.
Take all of the doppels across the newly formed bridge to the northwest. Kill the creature and place a doppel on the Triforce Gateway to the north. Now head south with the remaining doppels to find a trail of green rupees.

Bomb Storage - Stage 2
Head northeast to find three switches. Use a Gust Jar doppel to blow the other two doppels across the gap to the west. Use the Gust Jar doppel on the center ledge to blow the last doppel across the gap to the west. Place them all on the nearby switches to unlock the path north.
Use the Bomb doppel to toss a bomb across the gap to the east and blow up the rock. Now take the center doppel north and defeat the creature. Head back south to where the rock was and use the Bomb doppel to toss a bomb across to the center doppel.
Now use the center doppel to toss the bomb across to the east to blow up the last rock. Take the two Gust Jar doppels north and defeat all of the creatures. You will find several trails of green rupees to the northwest. Use a Gust Jar doppel to blow the other across the gap to the east.
Take the doppel to the south and use the Gust Jar to blow out the flames blocking the Bomb doppel. Now take both of these doppels back to the north, kill the creatures, and toss a bomb across the gap to the east to activate a switch. Take the lone doppel to the north using the newly activated platform.
Kill the creatures to the north and switch back to the other Gust Jar doppel. Use it to blow the Bomb doppel across the gap to the east where the switch is located. Switch to the Bomb doppel and drop down to the moving platform. Ride it to the north and toss a bomb to the switch on the west.

Continue going east by using the Gust Jar doppel until you reach the next switch. Stack up all of the doppels with the Bomb doppel on the top. Toss a properly timed bomb across the gap to the north to activate the switch. Unstack the doppels and continue going east using the Gust Jar doppel.
Head north and attack the blue creature for rupees and hearts if desired. Break the pots for the same reason or just continue north with all of the doppels. There will be the Triforce Gateway at the far north. Place all of the doppels on it to be transported to stage 4 of the Bomb Storage.
Bomb Storage - Stage 4
Take all of the doppels north to start a battle with several creatures inside the windows to the north. They will toss bombs at you and you need to use the Gust Jar to blow them back across. Do this exact thing and repeat until the creatures are defeated.
A new creature will come out and toss large bombs at you. You need to stack the Bomb doppel on top of one of the Gust Jar doppels. Now toss a bomb near the ledge where the window of the creature is and quickly toss the Bomb doppel as well.
Use the Gust Jar doppel to quickly blow the bomb to the ledge with the creature. You can toss a doppel onto the ledges on the east or west to break pots for hearts if needed and just repeat the previous steps until the last creature is defeated.
Pick up the rupees and use the Triforce Gateway to be transported to the end of the Bomb Storage. Head north and open a chest for some materials. You will now be transported back to Hytopia to prepare for the next challenge: the Training Ground.
Be sure to check out the new outfits, Daily Riches, and other stuff while back in Hytopia. Once you are ready – head back to the Drablands to take on the Training Ground.
Level 5-3: Training Ground
Training Ground - Stage 1
Walk forward with the doppels and stand on the switch. Head to the right and grab the Bow from the ledge here. Head back to the central platform and throw one of the heroes onto the Armos statue. While on top, you can control the statue as it hops around. You can use this to safely cross the nearby lava.
Once in the lava, throw another hero on top of the statue to create a totem so that you can bring two heroes to the grate platform to the north. Step on the two floor switches here to create a bridge. Then hop across the bridge with the armos statue to return it to its place so you can get off of it.
You can now head across the bridge and pick up the two weapons with the remaining heroes. There are three orbs here that you can only hit from a distance. Totem up with two heroes such that the top of the totem has one of the projectile weapons (Bow or Gripshot) and the lone hero on the ground has the other. Hit the higher switch from the totem and quickly switch to hit the other two switches with the grounded hero.
Go back and throw one hero on top of the armos statue to control it again. Bring it north through the opened door and place it on one of the switches. Then stand on the rest of the switches with the three heroes. This opens up the door ahead where you can enter the Triforce Gateway.
Training Ground - Stage 2
Walk forward with all three heroes and take the elevator up. Once all three heroes are in the center of the room, several beetle and soldier enemies will spawn. Throw one hero on top of the armos statue to control it. You can simply use the armos statue to crush every enemy with ease. This will open the door ahead leading to the Triforce Gateway.
Training Ground - Stage 3
You'll want to create a two-stack totem and shoot the two nearby Beamos with an arrow to get it out of the way. You can then throw a hero onto the armos statue to control it. Hop along with the statue on the path with the rolling boulder, which the statue can destroy. Stay near the source of the boulders with the armos statue so that you can continuously destroy them while moving the other heroes across the path.
There's another Beamos to defeat here. You can throw a hero up to the chest to get some hearts if you need them. Otherwise continue to use the armos and walk along the narrow upper path, blocking the flame so that the other heroes can cross. Hit the switch here to create a bridge and repeat the process.
The next switch will lower the bridge, which is good because the flames are higher and would knock the hero off the armos. Pass under this one and then raise the bridge again and block the final flame so that all three heroes are safely to the right. Note that if you fall off at any point during this, you'll need to bring all three heroes back to the beginning of the stage where a new armos statue will spawn.
In this final little area, use the raising platform in the middle to totem all three heroes on top of the armos statue. You can then walk north to the armos docking station and all the heroes will jump off onto the platform with the Triforce Gateway.
Training Ground - Stage 4
In this room, you'll need to jump on the armos statues and battle enemies that are also on top of statues. You'll to use the hero with a gripshot to get rid of the soldier's shield. You can then defeat all three of the soldiers by slashing very quickly while moving towards them. Once defeated, a door to the north will open and more enemies will come down.
These guys can be tricky to defeat since the ball-and-chain soldier will prevent you from getting too close. You should be able to take him out with the Bow if you can get some distance. There is a bomb soldier stacked on two armos statues, so you'll need to get a two-stack on a statue to defeat him. Another strategy is to simply get on one of the high platforms and let him throw bombs at you. With good aim, you can throw these bombs on top of the armos statues to kill the enemies a little easier.
Once all enemies are defeated, you can head for the Triforce Gateway to the north, and the level will be complete.
Level 5-4: The Lady's Lair
The Lady's Lair - Stage 1
Grab each of the weapons to start the stage. Have one hero run north and step on the floor switch, but be careful as there are rolling boulders. Totem up with the other heroes, making sure to have one projectile on the top.
Run to whichever purple/yellow pillar is down with the totem, and quickly switch back to the grounded hero and hit the switch in front of you to raise up the totem. The totem can now hit the raised switches. Quickly repeat the same thing on the opposite side before the timer runs out.
A bridge will appear and you can walk across it and enter the Triforce Gateway.
The Lady's Lair - Stage 2
You'll only need the boomerang hero to complete this stage. There will be a rotating batch of soldiers in cages that launch projectiles at you. To defeat them, simply toss back the bombs thrown at you into the cages. If you stand on the middle platform just before the markings on the edge, you can land directly in the cage. If you kill the bomb soldiers, you can use the boomerang to grab bombs from the sides of the room.
After defeating all the soldiers, a platform will appear that will raise if all three heroes stand on it. Up above, you can grab some recovery hearts from the chest. Then simply walk forward to reach the Triforce Gateway.
The Lady's Lair - Stage 3
Just make your way forward with all three heroes until you get to a tight rope. Defeat the surrounding enemies to make your life a little easier, then create a three stack totem with the boomerang on top. Walk across the tight rope and grab a bomb with the boomerang to blow up the large block. Step on the floor switch here and a moving platform can take you across.
There is a chest above that you can reach with a three stack totem if you want, it just contains rupees. Continue forward and some more enemies will spawn. Simply defeat them (use the gripshot on the shielded soldier) and continue on to the next little arena.
In this final area, three more enemies will spawn. Two bomb hinox and a flaming ball-and-chain soldier. You can use your boomerang and some simple slashes to defeat all of them. Once you do, a Triforce Gateway will appear.
The Lady's Lair - Stage 4
When you enter this stage, you'll be entroduced to Lady Maud. Aftward, walk forward into the main arena. This stage is a boss battle against The Lady's Pets. It essentially combines three previous bosses into one battle.
For the first phase, you'll be fighting Margoma agian. Get a two stack totem with the boomerang on top. Grab a bomb from the sides with the boomerang and toss it into the opening on top of the boss. This will expose the weak point, which you can then toss a hero up to attack with a sword. Repeat this cycle until this phase is complete.
This second phase is a revisitation of Moldorm. The boss will follow you closely, so you'll need to switch between heroes quickly to get him off your tail. Keep a two stack totem ready and the boomerang hero on the ground. Use the boomerang to throw bombs at Moldorm's head to stun it, and use the two stack to attack its tail. After a few bouts of this, Moldorm will run around wildly, with his tail even higher. Use a three stack with the Boomerang on top to attack him.
In the third and final phase is Arrghus. Create a three stack totem with the gripshot on top. Use this to hit his eye, which will leave him in a vulnerable state. You can get some sword slashes in when he's like this. Just repeat this process a few times until this phase and the entire boss is defeated. You can then enter the Triforce Gateway to end the level.
