Essentials[edit]
Other points of interest[edit]
Secrets[edit]
- The wooden column surrounded by revenants, east of the starting area, has four red lamps set in it. The eastern one can be pressed, opening a new area (sector 360) in the western part of the super shotgun area south of the column. This secret contains plasma gun and three energy cells guarded by an arch-vile.
- After dealing with the ambush in the rocket launcher area north of the wooden column, look northwest for a central window in the rock wall. It's low enough to climb onto and jump down to a backpack surrounded by lava. (sector 925) You can press the wall with the window to lower a lift and exit the area.
- The pillar with a BFG9000 on top can be lowered once you have any key. Press the switch, then try grabbing the BFG. You will be taken to a dark, sprawling area. In there, go southeast and follow the trail of armor bonuses to a light patch that will take you to an alcove with invulnerability. (sector 16)
- When you grab the blue key, look north to see another switch. Press it to reveal a secret cache further north with energy cell packs, boxes of rockets, and armor bonuses. (sector 607)
Bugs[edit]
No fewer than 60 imps in the caches surrounding the lava area with the BFG pillar have no flags set for any of the three difficulty classes, so they do not actually appear in the level.
