Doom Eternal - Cultist Base collectable locations

Cultist Base is the third level of Doom Eternal, following on from Exultia.

After obtaining the Celestial Locator, the Doom Guy has been able to locate Deag Ranak, the second Hell Priest on his hit list. Cultist Base is an arctic level with lots of outdoor arenas, traps, and more. Oh, and if you've been wondering about the Super Shotgun, you'll find it here.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Album location (1 total)

Once you're done fighting demons in that gruesome section of the map covered in blood and surrounded by ceiling traps, get inside one of the rooms, quickly get past the trap, and hop on the one that it's stuck to pick up the 'DOOM II - Into Sandy's City'' album.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Codex Entry location (1 total)

As soon as you begin the level, turn around and pick up the 'Cultist Base' codex entry.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Empyrean Key location (1 total)

Once you get to the room where the massive dead body is hanging on the air, instead of punching down the box, which will prevent you from entering the slayer gate, get near the section with the monkey bar and the grabable wall, but instead of jumping to the one in sight, look down on the left side and let yourself fall to the one below. From there, continue doing underground acrobatics around the room until you emerge from the other side, where you'll be able to obtain the slayer key. From there, complete the additional arena to obtain a new Empyrean Key.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Praetor Suit Points locations (4 total)

After making your way through the main tunnel with the giant traps, you'll find a balcony on the right side where an spectral being awaits to give you a Praetor Suit Point.

If you took the detour to obtain the Weapon Mod, follow that trail to find a new cracked wall waiting to be punched. Once inside, you'll find a new Praetor Suit Point.

Inside the room with the skulls' statues, you'll end up on top of a platform with the quest marker leading you to jump to the other side. Before doing so, make a half turn and pick up another Praetor Suit Point.

Before entering the last arena, make sure to grab the Praetor Suit Point from the hallway on the right.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Rune location (1 total)

This rune requires a bit of acrobatics to get to. After finishing one of the main arenas you'll come across a tower of sorts, along with some platforms that are hanging on the air. In order to obtain the rune, you're gonna have to punch a level marked with a green symbol. This will give you a short time window for you to use a monkey bar, get to the other side and attach yourself onto a wall. Once you're there don't worry about the remaining time, just face backwards with the camera and use your double jump and dash to get to the rune.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Secrets locations (5 total + 2 bonuses)

After finishing the first big arena, go to the right end of the platform and look below. You'll find a strange-looking fish with boobly eyes looking at you. Shooting it won't do anything, though, and instead you're gonna shoot the spiked-bomb that is right next to it. This will cause an explosion and a fish-hook will emerge from underwater with an Extra Life. Dash forward to pick it up and immediately dash backwards to return to safety.

This secret requires a bit of acrobatics to get to, but it's easily obtained if you've gotten the rune that comes before it. After finishing one of the main arenas you'll come across a tower of sorts, along with some platforms that are hanging on the air. In order to find the secret, you're gonna have to punch a lever marked with a green symbol. This will give you a short time window for you to use a monkey bar, get to the other side and attach yourself onto a wall. Once you're there don't worry about the remaining time, just face backwards with the camera and use your double jump and dash to get to the platform. After activating the rune, jump to the floating boxes and look just behind them for a blue orb.

At one point you're gonna find yourself inside a massive hall packed by cultists and the hologram of the priest you're looking for. After he's done talking, kill every single person in the room. A notification will appear, and now you can claim a blue orb right from the centre.

In the room surrounded by giant carcasses and guts on the floor, one of the moving traps will lead you to the ceiling. But don't worry, instead of being crushed you'll be able to pick up a blue orb.

You're gonna want to grab this secret even in the midst of battle during the last arena of the level. Look for a cracked wall on the western section of the map, and punch your way through to pick up a combat orb. Now go back and keep slaying.

Meanwhile - Commander Keen's Dopefish has two other appearances in this level, which happens whenever you encounter arenas in the outdoors, especially the ones that have a cliff nearby overlooking the vast and icy scenery.

For the second one, just approach the edge of the map and jump onto the platform. Turn around and use the monkey bar to get to another cave. Punch the fish and grab that Extra Life.

For the third and final Dopefish, just when you happen to be close to the Slayer Gate, approach the cliff and jump all the way to a dark cave. You'll see a bloody altar with said fish on top. Shooting it won't do anything so don't waste ammo. Instead, use the mechanism on the right side, and the Dopefish will be replaced with yet another Extra Life.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Secret Encounter location (1 total)

There's a Secret Encounter hidden behind an ice wall. This can be found right before a main arena, and just prior to the section of the map with 4 pillars surrounding an Extra Life icon.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Sentinel Batteries locations (2 total)

This one is easy. You'll find it as you make your way to the quest mark right on the left corner.

In the first outdoor arena get close to the edge looking at the massive ship on the sky. Look to the right and you'll notice a platform on the distance, make your way there and punch the cracked air vent. Once inside, punch the mechanism and the gates surrounding the bouncing platform underneath the arena will open. Jump from the ledge and use your dash to get back inside, get close to said platform and once you've gained enough height, double jump or dash to get to the Sentinel Battery.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Toy location (1 total)

In the first open area that requires you to do a bit of platforming, you'll notice a massive skull hanging from the ceiling with a '?' mark on top. As you make your way through this section, you'll find yourself hanging from a climbable wall that has red electric dots on the sides. Instead of climbing to the top, use a combination of double jump and dashes to get to the skull. Pick up the 'Gargoyle' toy, and once you're done jump and punch the crack on the ice wall. This will lead you to the other side of that previous climbing bit. You're welcome.

Doom Eternal Cultist Base Modbot location (1 total)

This one is a rather easy Modbot to find. After finishing up the arena that has three pillars in its inner circle, take a detour on the right side to find the modbot.
