Secrets[edit]
- Enter the Crypt from the main hub to be at the far north end of the main map. Head east and south to a hall with several crypts. Go to the middle one on the left side and look behind it to spot a hidden switch. Shoot it, which will display a message that the Crypt of the Archangel has opened. Go to the hallway opposite of the one with the crypts (on the left side) and go through the passage to the east to pick up an energy cell pack in the central area. (sector 240)
- From the southernmost room, head west and into a trap room with bats. Press on the northwest wall to find a teleporter leading back to the southernmost room on a high ledge, where you can jump to a radiation suit. (sector 526)
- In the room at the west side with the white obelisk, get to the southwest corner and look up at the east wall. Shoot the cross up above to light it, then get to the southeast door which is now open. Take the teleporter to get a medikit, a rocket, shotgun shells, and a megaarmor. (sector 679)
- As you go up the long steps at the easternmost end of the map, you will soon see a light shining on the north wall. Open that wall to find a teleporter. You will find an ammo clip and partial invisibility along with dark imps. (sector 703)
- In the easternmost room of the map, go to the northwest corner and go through the stained glass window at the north end to find health and armor bonuses. (sector 760)
- In Daemon's Sanctuary, head to the central large room, which is the cloister, and enter the well. Swim down and press the switch there, then return to the Crypt. Head north from the Chamber of Eternal Sanctuary in the middle of the map to the area with the tall obelisk surrounded by water. Hop in the water and press the switch there, which opens the gate to the west. Take that path, hop across, and continue to outer wall of the courtyard with two fountains, where you can go counter-clockwise to pick up the BFG9000, medikits, energy cell packs, and boxes of ammo. (sector 828)
