Secrets[edit]

  1. Go north at the start, and before turning right, head onto the rocks near the red rock. The wall will open up revealing a box of shotgun shells, a box of ammo, and a medikit. (sector 251)
  2. Along the northern path, get onto the big ledge and head for the dark red rock near the south end of it to find a berserk pack. (sector 353)
  3. After obtaining the red key, go back north and open the red door leading to the tech room. Look at the terminals on the wall and spot the one that looks different. Use it to reveal a soul sphere. (sector 9)
  4. In the same room as above, there are three crates. The crate to the northwest has 'TNT' stamped on the side; use it to lower all of them, allowing you to get an energy cell pack, a green armor, and a medikit. (sector 395)
  5. Head south from the start and east at the fork. Right as you finish the curve, a section of the wall to the north (right beyond the light of the torch at the corner) is more saturated than the rest. Press it and quickly run south through the passage to the lowered lift. Ride it up to find a green armor, a chaingun, a box of ammo, and a backpack. (sector 450)
  6. When you flip the switch to lower the bars where the red key was, backtrack through the southern hallway, the one you used to reach the switch. There will be an opening on one of the first bends in the hallway, allowing you to get armor bonuses, a medikit, a box of rockets, and an energy cell pack. (sector 461)
