Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Other points of interest

Finding the Artifact of Spirit in this map involves locating three hidden switches. The first is located past the staircase where the first secret area was. Past the red pillars in the next room, you can spot a switch in the distance behind the grate in front of you, which can be activated by shooting it. The second switch is located in the north of the map, in the orange walkway where multiple demons spawn in, and should also be shot at. The third and final switch is located in the large outdoors area in the west, close to the left of the super shotgun in the entrance. To shoot it, get up the stairs onto the structure and use one of the vantage points here to hit it. Once all three switches have been activated, an alcove will be opened next to the exit, where the Artifact may be grabbed.

Secrets

1. Enter the door to the right at the start, and in the fork, take the left path. Go left for a staircase but as you climb, you can notice a series of armor bonuses in the shape of an arrow pointing backwards. Press the wall the bonuses point to in order to get a box of shells and a soulsphere. (sector 279)
2. As you make your way into the building, you'll come across a narrow blood corridor. Cross it to reach a purple-tinted room, and from there you'll reach a staircase with lava next to it. To the north of the lava there are five rockets, and if you press the wall to the north of them, a wall opens to reveal three more rockets, a box of rockets and a rocket launcher. (sector 501)
