Secrets[edit]

  1. Enter the water west of the hub and take the teleporter to the west. You will find stimpacks, boxes of rockets, and a rocket launcher. (sector 344)
  2. In the vine-covered halls, head up the first set of steps, then enter the room to the east. Open the southwest wall to get a megaarmor. (sector 156)
  3. Head all the way west from the room where Secret #2 is, but do not open the door. Head up a bit and open the east wall with silver ridges around it to find a berserk pack. (sector 204)
  4. Open the door northwest of Secret #3 and open the wall without slime. Open the wall east of the stimpack to get an energy cell pack. (sector 176)
  5. Leave the room where Secret #4 is, then head behind the switch and press the switch there. This opens up a teleporter north of the one you used to get here. Enter that teleporter to find stimpacks. If you have the red key, open the door to the south to get on a ledge with an energy cell pack and a BFG9000. (sector 232)
  6. Pressing the frontside of the switch mentioned in Secret #5 will open the way east of the teleporter. Go that way and take the first door that you find. In this cramped area, use the gargoyle switch at the west side, then leave the room and continue east. Ignore the next door you come to and head south to the next one. Open it and get behind the metal wall to get a BFG9000. (sector 213)
  7. In the arena with the spider masterminds, get to the east wall and open it to get a soul sphere. (sector 323)
