Parisian Backstreets - Starting area to Rooftops
After completing the stealth tutorial in the previous section, return to the first ladder near the green sign in the starting area.
This time, climb the ladder and dismount above on the left.
Follow the walkway to the window and climb through as Lara instructs.
Search the cabinets to find €160 cash and a chocolate bar (8).
Pick up some Antique Doubloons (9) lying on the floor.
Use the CROWBAR to open the padlocked wardrobe. Search inside to find a necklace (10), which you can sell later for cash.
NOTES: If you try the wardrobe before finding a CROWBAR, Lara will say she needs something to force it open. The main walkthrough includes more info on cash, collectibles, and inventory in general.
When you have everything, climb back out the window. Climb onto the white HVAC unit next to the window. Face right and jump straight up to grab the edge of the opening overhead. Then press Forward to pull up onto the balcony.
Pick up more Antique Doubloons (11) just ahead.
Then follow the tutorial and walk to the edge. Jump forward across the wide gap and press Action to grab the ledge on the other side. Pull up. (The controls here are a bit different than in the previous games. Release Action once Lara has grabbed. Wait a moment and then press Forward to climb up. If you press Action again while hanging, Lara will let go and fall.)
Turn left, approach the low railing, stop, then press Forward to vault over the rail. Pick up another chocolate bar (12) (3/20 for "Chocollection").
Vault back over the railing and follow the ledge forward to the corner. Lara says she can hop across. Turn right and take a short hop (Walk + Jump) to cross the gap. Continue forward across the bridge made of planks.
Now climb the vertical drainpipe.
At the top, press Up + Right (or push diagonally on the stick if you're using a controller) to grab onto the ledge.
Continue traversing to the right and drop onto the the shingled corner ledge before the yellow grab bar runs out. If it does, she'll lose her grip and fall.
Walk to the corner and jump up to grab the edge of the roof with the broken railing. Traverse around the corner to the right...
...and pull up onto the roof.

DARK MODE: I plan to add optional dark mode for these pages, but my current priority is updating the walkthroughs. Meanwhile, may I suggest a reputable dark mode browser extension, such as Dark Reader? (Download only from trusted sites, like darkreader.org or your browser's web store.)
