Walkthrough

1
Begin by going through the crawlspace and dropping down to emerge in the Main Hall, a large, two-level central room with many blue doors. Some doors are one-way.
2
Go left and open the NW door. Proceed forward, and in the alcove on your left, find a vessel (101) containing a small medipack (319) and Uzi clips (320). (NG+2001)
3
Save your game at the threshold of the next room.
4
Entering this room triggers the appearance of 2 mechanical men (1, 2). These enemies are immune to explosives. Shoot the gems on their chests to damage them; 4-5 close-range blue shotgun shell hits, more red shell hits, or many pistol hits are required.
5
To defeat them easily, roll onto the floor and backtrack to the corner where the path turns right. The mechanical men will not follow this far, allowing you to defeat them with pistols.
6
Return to the room and shoot the vessel (102). This vessel can sometimes be buggy, so it's wise to break it early.
7
Go back to the Main Hall, turn left, and enter the middle door on the north wall. Follow the passage to a pole with a counterclockwise rotating gear.
8
To descend the pole: Stand on the far left edge of the square hole. Hop back once. When the gear reaches the near right corner and moves up the right side, hold the Action button and run forward. You will land on the next level undamaged. This works on the right side as well.
9
Shoot the vessel (103) and pick up the small medipack (321). Drop to the next level.
10
Shoot the 2 vessels (104-105) and collect the red shotgun shells (322) and large medipack (323).
11
To descend to the lowest floor: Line up on the east side of the hole, hop back, and time a run forward (west) without holding Action to pass the gear.
12
Follow the tunnel to a second pole. Do not climb it. Stand in the SE corner. When the gear is behind you, moving east to west, jump and grab the ledge, then pull yourself up.
13
Equip your shotgun with blue (widespread) ammo. As you enter the next room, a mechanical man (3) will approach from the right. Backhop while firing until it is defeated. You have 180 rounds of blue ammo, so don't worry too much about missing a shot or two.

Tips

This level contains 7 killable mechanical men, though one can be avoided, making your likely kill count 6. Fire wraiths are present but cannot be damaged by weapons.
The level has a total of 318 pickups, including 28 secrets and 346 trophies. There are 49 vessels to find, containing 16 medipacks and other items.
In New Game+, there are 11 medipack pickups (7 small, 4 large). Stockpile ammo, especially shotgun shells, as mechanical men deplete it quickly.
Ascending poles with gears is more challenging than descending. Practice is key.
Some doors in the Main Hall only open from one side.
The mechanical men's weak point is the gem on their chest.
