Essentials[edit]

Collect the megasphere and all the weapons in front of you, then step on the red symbol to teleport to the north end of the Icon’s arena. The structure in front of you has three locked doors, which must be opened to reveal switches that will lower three barriers in the southern building, allowing you to shoot the Icon’s eye. Run to the southern building, passing four spiderdemons and a cyberdemon on the way, then use the steps on the south side of the building to get inside. Go east and west after climbing the first flight of steps to get the red and blue keycards, then go up the second flight of steps to get the yellow keycard and flip the switch behind it to lower the teleporter in the middle of the arena.

Go back to the Icon and use the lifts on the east and west sides of the structure to climb up to the locked doors. Open all three doors and flip the switches behind them, then enter the teleporter in the center of the arena to go back to the room where you found the yellow key. Fire rockets into the Icon’s eye to kill a hidden arachnotron as well as Romero's head, which will kill the Icon and end the level.
