Navigate Quake's E1M8 Ziggurat Vertigo. Find the Pentagram of Protection and a Quad Damage powerup.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    At the start, grab the Pentagram of Protection. Dive into the lava near the bridge and swim beneath it, away from the ziggurat. You will emerge in a small room containing a Quad Damage powerup, health, and a slipgate that leads back to the bridge in front of the ziggurat.
  2. 2
    Behind the silver key door, there is a passage forward and to the left, and another to the right. Take the left passage and follow it to the end. On your right, you should see a section of wall with a dark border. Shoot this section to open a door leading to two boxes of nails.
Tips
  • The Pentagram of Protection offers temporary invincibility, allowing you to safely traverse the lava.
  • The slipgate provides a quick way back to the main bridge area.
