Secrets[edit]

  1. In the southwest building, go to the berserk pack under the blood. Look south and shoot the eye, then leave the building and head west near the lava, Climb the rocks on the west side and head south to get a chainsaw, a soul sphere, health bonuses, and armor bonuses (the latter items are only available on Hurt Me Plenty). (sector 7945)
  2. At the west side of the map, climb to the highest point where a small column is and run and jump west to the rocks. Head north and a soul sphere will appear. (sector 9594)
  3. In the central part of the map, enter the water and head northwest to a blue door. Open it and take the lift up to get a soul sphere. (sector 9072)
  4. A hall at the northwest end requires the red key to reach. After getting the red key, return to the doors leading to this hall and enter. Go to the north end and head south to four paths leading to a megaarmor, a plasma gun, an energy cell pack, and a switch to lower the paths. (sector 7773)
  5. In the north hall, head southeast to an area with blue and red borders around. Crossing the blue border will reveal a switch a bit east of it, but crossing any red border will close the switch. Cross the blue border, then go east away from the red borders, around the east side, then west. Press the switch and quickly run back southwest, west, north, northwest, and northeast, then quickly shooting the eye on the southeast wall. Head northeast and find a red light, pressing it, then run north and northwest to get past open bars. The big area here has a megasphere. (sector 7775)
