To solve this puzzle you need to push the three smaller statues onto the three weight panels surrounding the larger statue. You also need to use Nightwing to create a Cable Tether to power one of the panels.

Follow the yellow pipe above Gothamusic and you should come to a ledge where you can see the trophy stuck at the top half of the pipe. On this ledge, destroy the debris and use it to build a fan.

Once you’ve done this, follow the pipe down to ground level and switch to Catwoman. Then, climb up the climbable wall to the right of the pipe and activate the lever here. Once you’ve done this, drop down and use Catwoman’s Whip to remove the screw at the bottom of the pipe.

Three - Trapped on a Vent

This puzzle can be found at the point I’ve marked on the map below, on a rooftop - not at ground level.

Here, walk up to the crate then use Batman’s x-ray vision to follow the pipes if you’d like. If you want to speed things along, put your back to the trophy and head up to the rooftop opposite you. Here, you should find a wheel in a cage.

Use Talia’s ability to get through the fence here and then turn the wheel to increase the pressure on the vent. This will release the trophy, go ahead and get it.

Four - Walkway between buildings

This puzzle can be found on a walkway between two buildings at the point marked on the map below:

Head onto the walkway and you’ll find a yellow slider point beside the puzzle. First of all, use Robin or Nightwing’s staff to pry the middle part of the slider off. Then, attach the pole to the yellow point and pull it along to move the puzzle cage as far as it will go.

At this point, grab the cage and pull it out onto the walkway. Then, use the Batclaw to pull the door off the cage and then you can grab the trophy.

Five - South-east of the Subwayne

Required: Nightwing

You can find this puzzle on the east side of the area, south-east of the Subwayne. We’ve marked the location on the map below, when you get here you’re looking for a large statue holding the Riddler trophy in a cage.

To solve this puzzle, face the front of the statue then look right.

You should see three switches up on the wall here. Walk over to this and then smash the debris on the floor in the corner by the shop to reveal a button. Press this button and then, from left to right (with left being the switch closest to the shop) use Nightwing to activate the three switches all at once.

When you’ve done this, go back to the button on the opposite side of the statue and press it to release the trophy.

Six - North-east of the SubWayne

Required: Batgirl and Jim Gordon

This puzzle can be found on a rooftop north-east of the SubWayne, the location is marked on the map below.

Stand at the puzzle box at the top as Jim Gordon and wait for the elevator to come up to your level. As soon as it stops moving and the doors open, use your Foam Sprayer to jam the gears in place. Then, push the trophy cage onto the elevator. Once it’s on there, use your Batarang to smash the foam and let the elevator move again.

Quickly glide down to the roof opposite by following the elevator cables. Wait for the elevator to come down and open its doors, then use the Foam Sprayer again to jam the gears to keep the elevator in place. Pull the cage out as far as it will go.

Then, change to Batgirl and use your Hackarang on the hackable panel to take control of the crane. Once you’ve done this, use the crane to hook onto the cage and lift it off the trophy.

Seven - South of the SubWayne

This puzzle can be found on a roof directly south of the SubWayne, I’ve marked it on the map below.

Thankfully, this is a really easy puzzle by Riddler’s standards. All you have to do here is use the lights on the roof opposite the puzzle to create a perfect question mark in the shadow on the large wall behind the trophy cage. You will need to change the lenses on your light to do this, but once you’ve got the right piece in the right place for that light the beam will become green.

Eight - Border of Old Gotham West and South

Required: Batgirl and Jim Gordon

Now this one is a bit confusing because your map technically says it’s Old Gotham South, however this Riddler puzzle actually counts towards the Old Gotham West ones. I’ve marked its location on the map below:

To solve this one you need to find the symbols and figure out the order they go in. The clues are in the following locations:

Water Pipe - Use Gordon’s Foam Sprayer to block the pipe and the clue will pop out.

Building Lift - Grab the keycard from the alley and insert it into the slot, once powered take the card out and head up to the elevator platform on the side of the building. Insert the card into the slot here.

Top of building - Use Batgirl’s drone to enter the open window on the top floor of the building above the broken pipe.

If you’re stuck, this is the order of the symbols: Funny-looking C, Three-eyed sad face, and V.
