Secrets[edit]
- At the southernmost part of the map, use the switch behind the yellow door to reveal the cave. An arachnotron comes from the south end. Go here, then turn right and along the ledge to a switch, which lowers a rock containing a box of rockets. (sector 237)
- At the yellow key, look southwest and shoot the right of the two skulls. This will open up a compartment to the west of the skull, which contains a soul sphere. (sector 729)
- Head to the hall north of the rocket launcher and use the wall with the gargoyle faces for a lift. Ride it up and inch on the south edge to the other room. There are four gargoyle faces here. Use the rightmost one to trigger a lift to the south. Ride it up to get a berserk pack. (sector 1015)

Technical information[edit]
Inspiration and development[edit]
Obake cited his interest in cemeteries and genealogy as the main drive of the map. Dregs of a Bitter Cup was based on old graveyard and mausoleum designs, which compared to modern cemeteries are inconvenient to navigate in real life. Markers often denoted the wealth of the buried. The more ornate the headstone or coffin, the wealthier, with the destitute only having simple crosses, or no markers at all.
Trivia[edit]
The title Dregs of a Bitter Cup is scriptural.
