tetanus is here to take us on another big adventure. this time, instead of map 5's sprawling design and freeform encounters, we've got much tighter more claustrophobic settings and a couple major brawls in close quarters to grapple with. don't forget the chainsaw at the start; you don't actually need it but it's essential swag. a lot of the incidental combat going from place to place is relatively straightforward, but there are a lot of hitscanners tucked into quiet corners that can shave off your health in a hurry. the first big fight is actually locked behind a secret key, but it's the only way to get your hands on a plasma rifle. this is supposed to drop you into a pit with a bunch of revenants... but if you're quick you can duck out, shoot through the spectators with the plasma, then finish off the enemies in the pit with splash damage. i regret nothing.

then we go down into the area that leads to the blue key, and it doesn't matter how fancy your footwork is here, you're going to have to slug it out with a ton of enemies up close and personal. that plasma will help, but not as much as you'd hope as you really need the splash damage and raw firepower of the rocket launcher. i found taking out the cacos that come from above first to be the best way to handle this - they can really mess with your maneuverability otherwise. oh and the hitscanners too, although they tend to wind up shooting a baron in the back and getting pulverized for their trouble. also, no matter which order you hit the switches to exit from here in, an archvile arrives to cause problems after the second one. so watch out for that.

from there it's a relatively straightforward climb back to the exit. just watch for the archviles tucked away in a few different places, especially when you revisit the first area for the red key.
