Servitor is the first main puzzle in the Western Delta area of The Talos Principle 2.

Puzzle elements

Overview

As you enter the puzzle, you see a rail drone already connected to a red emitter via a connector. There is a blue emitter to the right across a grill fence, and a fan that leads back outside. To the left is a room blocked off by a blue door that can be deactivated by a pressure plate. There is a ladder that leads back out. That room has another blue door that gets deactivated when the pressure plate in the first room is inactive. Further in, there is a blue receiver leading to the progress wheel.

Hints

A basic hint:

[ hint ]

Rail drones get activated by a laser beam of the appropriate color. They can push down pressure plates. Their path can be interrupted by equipment.

If you're having trouble getting started:

[ hint ]

You can stand on rail drones. You can remove obstacles on the path of the rail drone. You can also control if the rail drone is active from far away if you're able connect or disconnect its energy source

If your laser is being interrupted by a grill:

[ hint ]

You need elevation and the correct angle. You may have to move the item from far away so that it gets the right angle

Solution

[ solution ]

Step 1: Get up on the rail drone, and jump across the fence. Grab the connector, and take the fan back outside.
Step 2: Move the existing connector out of the way so that the rail drone pushes the pressure plate, then disconnect it.
Step 3: Connect one of the connectors to the blue emitters and place it on the rail drone.
Step 4: Take the other connector and go into the second room. Use the window to connect the red emitter to the rail drone until it moves off the pressure plate, and is at a good angle to receive the laser from the blue connector.
Step 5: Use your connector to connect the blue connector on the rail drone to the blue receiver near the progress wheel.
