Walkthrough
Collect the 100 Health and Shells to your left. Behind you is a set of Bars with the exit Teleporter behind it, the message tells the player that "you need to visit shalrath's pit". Continue straight ahead to ascend an Elevator, then turn around at the top. Head down the small corridor, then jump onto the Moving Platform to cross the pit of Lava and reach the next room. Continue to the middle of the room, then kill the Knight to your left and Knight to your right. Straight ahead is another Moving Platform, while to your left and right are two alcoves. Both alcoves are trapped, trying to collect the resource will cause the Movable Wall, the back wall of the alcove, to push the player into a pool of Lava that is revealed under another Movable Wall where the floor was. By making a circular jump, the player can acquire the resources, but they must be careful not to hit the back wall since it can trap said player and crush them. Collect the Red Armor from the alcove to your left and Rocket Launcher from the alcove to your right. Use the Moving Platform opposite the one you used to enter the room to cross another pool of Lava, then collect the Double-Barrelled Shotgun on the far side. Straight ahead is the Gold Door, so turn around and return to the large room.

Aim upwards in the middle of the room to hit a Shootable Button on the ceiling, this causes the Floor above you to lower to your level; it will crush you if you are not in the middle of the room, the alcoves also close behind Movable Walls to prevent escape. Jump onto the Floor before it ascends once again, then kill the 2 Knights in this section, 1 in each diagonal corner. Collect the two 15 Health and 2 Shells in this section as well, each similar is diagonal to each other. Look upwards to the balcony above you, you should notice that the [Gold Key]] is there. Kill the Ogre on the balcony. Press the 4 Buttons, 1 on each wall, to cause the Center of the floor of the lower floor to open, revealing a room below the one you were previously in.

Drop to the platform below to collect the Nailgun. You are in a room surrounded by Lava, one wall has a set of Bars while the other three lead to Movable Walls. Shoot the Buttons above the Movable Walls to cause a Drawbridge to extend across the Lava, then cross the bridge to cause the Movable Wall to open. Collect the 100 Health from the alcove directly across from the Bars, then press the Button in the alcove. Head down the alcove to the left and right to kill a Death Knight and collect 2 Nails, 4 Nails and 2 Death Knights in total. Press the 2 Buttons, 1 in each alcove, to case the Drawbridge to extend across the area with the Bars. Head towards the Bars to open them, then head through the Teleporter to reach the area with the Gold Key. Collect the 2 Rockets on the platform, 1 in each diagonal corner.

Return to the Gold Door and go through it. Straight ahead is a bridge over another pool of Lava, kill the Death Knight on the far side. Cross the bridge to reach the Teleporter on the far side, but be careful of the 3 Nail Traps in the ceiling. Head to one of the sides of the room to look upwards to a balcony, then kill the Scrag and Ogre above you. Collect the Nails in the lower left corner, Shells in the lower right corner, and two 15 Health in the upper corners. Press the Button straight ahead to open up a set of Bars behind you, turn around and enter the newly opened area. Turn right to kill the Death Knight. Use either Elevator, the one in front of you or the one behind you, to reach the floor above, then turn into the room. Turn in the direction you used to enter the room with the Bars, then follow the bridge to 3 Crucified Zombies around a Button. Press the Button to cause the Floor of the lower room to open up, revealing a room beneath it. Kill the 2 Scrags and 2 Death Knights, then drop through the floor to reach a wooden balcony. As you land, you will receive the message "welcome to shalrath's pit". Collect the Grenade Launcher on the middle of this balcony, then drop to the floor below.

On one of the walls is a set of Bars leading forward, collect the 2 Rockets, 1 on either side of the Bars. Head around the room, pressing the 3 Buttons on the walls without the Bars. Look above the Bars to shoot the final Button, which shall open the Bars. Head through the newly opened doorway, then turn right to kill the Vore. Collect the 100 Health straight ahead, then turn around once more. The Teleporter straight ahead is worthless, it just leads back to the room above "shalrath's pit". Instead, return to the previous room. The middle of the room has had its Floor opened, this occurred when you killed the Vore. Drop through the hole to reach a Teleporter surrounded by Lava. You are now back in the large room near the start, head across the Moving Platform straight ahead and down the Elevator hole to reach the starting corridor. Continue forward, passing through the Teleporter on the far side to exit the level.

Glitches

 * It is easily possible to jump over the triggers to open the Movable Walls in the Nailgun area.
 * While the exit is blocked in Deathmatch, the entirety is not covered, meaning hitting the corners can still result in the player exiting the level. This can become an issue if an opponent is hit with a Rocket Launcher while trying to obtain the Quad Damage. It is recommended to fix this by setting noexit to 1.

 * No Gold Door or Gold Key.
