Doom Eternal - Taras Nabad collectable locations

Where to find all hidden collectables on Taras Nabad.

Taras Nabad is the ninth level of Doom Eternal, following on from Sentinel Prime.

This is the last and biggest mission in Doom Eternal, and probably the one with the most collectables and secrets altogether. Samuel Hayden guides the Slayer through the remnants of an ancient civilisation, which at the same time is more than familiar for the protagonist for many reasons.

It's also where you'll come across the beat the Marauder in 30 seconds challenge.

On this page:

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Albums locations (2)

As you're making your way through the broken bridge where an arena takes place, let yourself fall and use either your double jump or dash ability to get to the '?' mark underneath. This will unlock the 'Doom (2016) - BFG Division' album.

Inside the room with the spiked ball hanging from the ceiling, you can either jump on it by using the throne to gain height, or just activate the bouncing platforms and make your way across the room. Get close enough to the wall and punch it to reveal the 'Quake II - Rage' album.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Cheat Code location (1)

Right after an arena the map will showcase both a secret encounter and a hidden item together. In order to get to them, go around the corner and punch the cracked wall to access the room. Once inside, grab the 'Powerup Mode: Overdrive' cheat code.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Codex Entries locations (7)

The 'Taras Nabad' codex entry becomes available in your first few steps through the level.

Once you're outdoors again after the swimming section, you'll come across 'History of the Sentinels - Part X' codex entry.

After entering the room with the divinity machine in the centre, you will be able to obtain 'The Divinity Machine' codex entry.

Right after obtaining the crucible from the titan, you'll come across a hole in the ground. Just around it, make sure to pick up the 'History of the Sentinels - Part XI' codex entry.

In the circle-shaped area, which you'll access just by following the map, make sure to pick up the 'History of the Sentinels - Part XII' codex entry.

Just before obtaining the energy medallion, pick up the 'History of the Sentinels - Part XIII' codex entry.

After going through the last underwater section of the mission, you'll be able to jump across the room and pick up the 'History of the Sentinels - Part XIV' codex entry.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Empyrean Key location (1)

In the underground section of the mission you'll come across the Slayer Key, which can be used in the Slayer Gate that is only a couple of meters away. After finishing this additional arena, you'll obtain the Empyrean Key.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Mastery Tokens locations (2 total)

This Mastery Token can be found in the first big area. Once you've opened the first gates, you'll be free to pick it up.

In the last area just as you're about to power up your crucible, pick up the second Mastery Token in this mission.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Praetor Suit Points locations (5)

Right before entering the first big area of the mission, make sure to pick up the Praetor Suit Point.

As you're moving to the next area, and right after doing that first swimming section, you'll emerge to a room close to a Praetor Suit Point.

Right after obtaining the crucible from the titan, go to the left side and pick up the Praetor Suit Point.

There's another Praetor Suit Point on the northern edge of the circle-shaped platform on the map.

There's another Praetor Suit Point waiting for you just before dropping into the massive hole after going through the throne room.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Secret Encounter location (1)

Right after an arena the map will showcase both a secret encounter and a hidden item together. In order to get to them, go around the corner and punch the cracked wall to access the room and activate the encounter.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Sentinel Batteries locations (3)

Another easy collectable that becomes available right after beginning the mission. For this, let yourself fall from the first bridge onto the platform below, and stick to the path to pick up the Sentinel Battery.

Right after obtaining the crucible from the titan, you'll come across a hole in the ground. Just around it, make sure to pick up the Sentinel Battery.

In the first big outdoors area in the game, you'll notice a Sentinel Battery locked behind bars. In order to unlock this, go to the farthest corner of the area and punch the statue on its knee with a crack on the side. Activate the button and you will now be able to access a previously locked room on the second floor. Grapple yourself to the wall, jump and punch the chains, and then proceed to grab the item.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Sentinel Crystal location (1)

In the circle-shaped area, which you'll access just by following the map, make sure to pick up the Sentinel Crystal.

Doom Eternal Taras Nabad Toys locations (3)

In the outdoor area after the emerging from the swimming section, look for a statue on its knee that has a crack on the side. Punch it and press the green button. Now, head towards the fountain in the centre of the area, which will have a glowing highlight. Stand in there and the previously inaccessible '?' mark will open its gates, letting you pick up the 'Cyber Mancubus' toy.

Right after obtaining the crucible from the titan, go around the left side and punch the breakable wall to reveal the 'Marauder' toy.

This toy is probably the most troublesome of the lot. After going through the throne room, and before jumping into the hole in the ground, open the map. There's a hanging platform placed around half of the fall, so you're gonna want to align yourself in a way that you'll be facing it as you're dropping. It is a quick call, but you can use the weapon wheel to slow down time. Once close enough punch the wall and dash inside to grab the 'Pain Elemental' toy.

All done? Our Nekravol collectables locations guide can help with the next area, while our Doom Eternal secrets hub and dedicated Rune locations and Sentinel Battery locations pages cover everything else to find in the game.
