Secrets[edit]

Official[edit]

  1. Before running across both flesh crushers to the switch, face the switch on the other side then turn around and go forward. After that look right and press on the wall jutting out, it will open up and stepping in is what tags the secret. There is an imp, two rockets and the megaarmor that was teased from the beginning of the level. (sector 1)
  2. Go through the yellow door and on an indent on the left wall is a texture with pipes and holes. Open it like a door and kill the lost soul and shotgunner. As you approach the second step of the stairs get ready for two revenants to come out of a monster closet. After killing them continue up the stairs and enter a room with a megaarmor and two box of rockets to tag the secret. (sector 263)
  3. Go through the right red door and kill all the enemies, then lower the ledge that the imps were on like it was a lift. Walk through to the other side of the lift and the soulsphere from earlier that was on top of the crate will lower. (sector 232)

Non-official[edit]

  • Go left of the red keycard to the green door, open it and go down the steps of the blue stairs and kill everything down there. To the left of the rocket launcher is a wall with a metallic pipe texture, open it to get into a non-official secret area. There are five imps, a cacodemon and a lift with a Hell knight that takes you back to the room with the green armor.
  • Behind the blood falls from where the two Hell knights came after grabbing the box of rockets in the blood maze, are two rockets (one for each Hell knight).
