Secrets[edit]
- Picking up the rocket launcher reveals a baron of Hell to the northeast guarding a backpack. To get the backpack, head back north, down the steps, then take the steps to the east. Go into the passage and midway through, press on the southwestern wall for a lift to the backpack. (sector 92)
- In the small hall west of the cage with skulls, head to the central plank, and press on the skull to the south. This opens a wall to the northwest where you can lower a berserk pack. (sector 134)
- At the southeastern part of the map, climb up one set of steps, then make a well-timed jump to the ledge at the southern part of the area with a medikit and a box of shotgun shells. (sector 111)
- When you get to the blue key, head to the southeastern wall and find a switch that will open the eastern wall. Follow this passage to the cage with skulls where you can get a soul sphere. (sector 569)
- When you get to the switch that opens the yellow key room, lower the wall east of it to find a megaarmor. (sector 348)
- Open the yellow door and open the next door you come to. Climb the steps and instead of taking the next set, lower the wall to the south of it to find a computer area map and rockets. (sector 438)
