Walkthrough[edit]
Essentials[edit]
Go through the tunnel picking up the plasma gun, the rocket launcher, and the ammo. When you go out into the open, you will teleport into the arena. There are eight barons of Hell here, along with the spider mastermind in the middle, whose platform goes up and down. In addition, the outer reaches of the arena are all under a crusher, so if you need anything on the perimeters there, look out for the ceiling. You only need to kill the spider mastermind to finish the level.
