DOOM 3 Hints

Where can I find a new access panel for the door near all the alien growths?

  • 1 of 6: According to your updated objectives list, the panel you're after is in Lab A. Too bad it's locked up tight.
  • 2 of 6: Once in Lab A, you need to get past a few hellish obstacles (including lots of monsters and the floor falling out from in front of you) and make it to an elevator that can take you up to the Lab A Upper Floors.
  • 3 of 6: On the upper floors, find the next elevator so you can get to another upper floor area.
  • 4 of 6: Make your way all the way to the end of the top floor to find two storage cabinets, one of which is already open and contains the door panel you're after. (WARNING: Prepare for a *major* monster attack to begin the instant you grab the door panel.)
  • 5 of 6: Now you need to go all the way back to the Main Entrance Hall and install the panel on the door near the hell-growths.
  • 6 of 6: SHORTCUT: To fight fewer enemies, jump over the short railing that's near the room where you found the door panel. You'll take damage from the fall, and an archvile will teleport in near you, but you can use the soulcube on him to destroy him and restore your health. After you do, go for the nearby elevator and take it down.
