Victory Lifts will rise only while a player is standing on them, and will usually (but not always) descend when a player has disembarked the lift. Victory Lifts are critical when attempting to solve a number of Test Chambers, because not only do they provide access to the main portion of the Test Chamber or the Chamber's exit, but they allow the player to reach ledges and platforms that cannot be reached by utilizing the [[Handheld Portal Device]] or other means.
