Secrets

 * 1) After solving the puzzle involving the ice and magic platforms over the abyss, as you make your way to the western section of the level, turn right and go up the platform and up the first two sets of stairs that you see. Before going up the third one, below you to your right you can spot a wall, right of the blue mana cube, and if you drop down here a switch right next to it can be used to open it, revealing a secret path to MAP31. (sector 3696)
 * 2) Proceed to the west and you will see a series of platforms to jump on to reach the other side. Once you reach the middle platform, turn right and you will see a shrine with several wendigos. Go there, and then to the left in the abyss you can see a small platform you can jump on. There you will find an Amulet of Warding, Falcon Shield, Platinum Helm and Mesh Armor. (sector 686)
 * 3) Reach the same shrine as before but this time, look for a platform in the abyss on the right instead. This leads to a teleport taking you to an outer shrine, containing six Crystal Vials, two Quartz Flasks and, once you're imbued with the fire of Hades, you can also obtain the Heart of D'Sparil. (sector 2195)
 * 4) Back to the middle platform from which you reached the shrine that leads to the two secrets, now turn to the opposite direction and you will see another walkway. This can be reached with the help of the Boots of Speed found earlier in the level, and once you're there, look for another platform below you on the left where you may find three quartz flasks and a teleporter back to the walkway that has a Krater of Might. (sector 396)
 * 5) Once you gain access to the eastern section, down the first flight of stairs you see, to the left of it you can see a walkway below to your left. With a careful jump you can reach it to obtain a porkalator and a Chaos Device, as well as one of the clock gears in multiplayer. (sector 813)
 * 6) From the same stairs you can jump to a platform further down, from where you can see Yorick's statue, and if you had obtained the skull using one of the gears earlier after solving the puzzle of the pillars of Tartaros, it will cause a series of magic platforms to spawn behind the gear pickup in this eastern section. Use these magic platforms to reach a ruined building in a cave containing several items and monsters, as well as another way into MAP31. (sector 955)
