- For the hidden level in Doom RPG, see Items (Doom RPG map).
An item is any thing that may be picked up by a player, such as ammunition, weapons, armors, keys, special gear or powerups, and bonuses.

Doom games[edit]
The items flagged with a percent sign (%) count toward the ITEMS percentage displayed on the intermission screen. Items flagged with a number sign (#) are always picked by the player when passed over, even when not needed. Items marked with a superposed 2 (2) are available only in Doom II and derivatives.
Picking up an item plays the DSITEMUP sound effect, or DSGETPOW for a powerup. When an item respawns in multiplayer mode, it does so with a burst of blue fog (sprite series IFOG) and the DSITMBK sound effect.
Health[edit]
Health granting items add exclusively to the player's health percentage, as indicated on the status bar. These percentage points count as hit points against damage.
| Item | Manual name | Flags | Health | Maximum |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Health bonus | Health potion | %# | +1% | 200% |
| Stimpack | +10% | 100% | ||
| Medikit | +25% | 100% | ||
| Supercharge | Soul sphere | %# | +100% | 200% |
- See also: Berserk, megasphere (below)
Armor[edit]
Armor granting items add exclusively to the player's armor percentage, as indicated on the status bar. These percentage points count as hit points against damage, substituting damage to health to a degree according to the type of armor currently worn by the player.
| Item | Manual name | Flags | Armor | Maximum | Protection |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Armor bonus | Spiritual armor | %# | +1% | 200% | 1/3 (1/2) |
| Armor | Security armor | 100% | 100% | 1/3 | |
| Megaarmor | Combat armor | 200% | 200% | 1/2 |
- See also: Megasphere (below)
The protection of armor bonuses is 1/2 if the last suit of armor picked up was a megaarmor. A megasphere will also have this effect.
Powerups[edit]
Each powerup is a miscellaneous item that grants unique or combined powers or capacities to the player. The manuals call the mundane ones power-ups and the more alien ones artifacts (but also include certain health and armor granting items under this denomination).
| Powerup | Manual name | Flags | Screen | Power | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Backpack | # | ×2 ammo capacity | Episode/Campaign | ||
| Berserk | Berserk pack | %# | Palettes 3 and 2 (red) | 100% health, ×10 fist damage | Level |
| Computer area map | Computer map | % | Draws unvisited level areas in automap | Level | |
| Invulnerability | Invulnerability artifact | %# | Colormap 33 (inverse grayscale) | Immunity to damage | 30 seconds |
| Light amplification visor | %# | Colormap 1 | Full-bright vision | 2 minutes | |
| Megasphere2 | Mega sphere | %# | 200% health & armor (1/2 protection) | ||
| Partial invisibility | Blur artifact | %# | Semi-invisibility (like on spectres), reduced accuracy of most ranged monster attacks | 1 minute | |
| Radiation shielding suit | Radiation suit | # | Palette 13 (green) | Protects from damaging floors | 1 minute |
Other[edit]
Ammunition, keys, and weapons are also items the player may pick up. Only a general description is given below, as they are best described in their corresponding sections.
| Item type | Notes |
|---|---|
| Ammo | The status bar shows a running count of each of the four ammo types: bullets, shells, rockets, and energy cells. This current count applies until end of the level set being played. |
| Keys | The red, yellow and blue keycards and the red, yellow and blue skull keys are used to open locked doors or activate locked switches. Keys are retained until end of the level where they are obtained. |
| Weapons | Once acquired, weapons are retained until end of the level set. Weapons do require the appropriate ammo to be of any use, unless they do not require any ammunition (such as the fist or the chainsaw). |
