Other points of interest[edit]
Secrets[edit]
- The large skull at the eastern end of the map holds a megasphere. To lower the bars to the megasphere, head to the ledge behind the large skull, where an arch-vile (revenant on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower) will guard a terminal. Press this terminal to lower the bars to the megasphere. (sector 1082)
- In the middle of the map where the chaingun is, a lift lowers to your left revealing revenants. Behind them, press the bloody wall to find an energy cell pack. You may have to lower the lift again to get the secret after getting rid of the revenants. (sector 1290)
- The room with the three arachnotrons has several routes of travel. Take the northeastern one, looking at the marble faces as you go across the blood. One of the marble walls lacks a face. Press on it to find a computer area map. (sector 1326)
