Quake 4 Hints
How do I get back to Hollenbeck?
1 of 7: He'll be waiting for you at the top of the lift you took to get to this level, so turn around and head back to it.
2 of 7: You'll soon meet another iron maiden and a couple of Strogg tactical squad-style marines, followed by more iron maidens.
3 of 7: TIP: Keep your tech alive and talk to him after every room is secured to keep your armor at its max.
4 of 7: NOTE: Whenever you come to a locked glass door, look for an interactive panel to the right of it that will open it.
5 of 7: You'll eventually run into one or more of those dog-like teleport droppers. If you'll remember the first one, you'll know to quickly kill them before finishing off the Strogg they teleport in. (Again, the lightning gun is a big help.)
6 of 7: When you get back to the lift chamber, be ready to take down two more iron maidens by yourself (unless you've taken really good care of your marine buddies so far).
