Official[edit]

  1. In the water room with the berserk pack and steps with armor bonuses, climb the steps to the east side and use the recessed wall on the east side. You will reveal a cage and a switch. Shoot the switch, get to the bottom of the water room, then west. Use the north lift to get a megaarmor. (sector 329)

Non-official[edit]

  • To get the BFG, go to the higher ledge to the east of the lava pit with the red key. Walk through the grey square arch to the north, and then back. Look east, towards the BFG and past it, and you'll see a wall has momentarily opened, revealing a skull switch. Shoot it. A series of columns in the mud pit to the west of the BFG will rise, allowing you to climb up to get it.
