: Hi Jody,

: That level is apparently extremely hard even for the best of Marathon
: players, so you're in good company having trouble with it. In the upcoming
: Eternal X Omega I've added a 3x health canister and an invisibility
: powerup to the start, so you should be able to get down there, hit those
: switches, and get back up top without even entering combat, if you hurry
: (though you may need to swat some bugs out of your way with the shock
: staff along the way).

: But that doesn't help you now. The only thing I can think to suggest is to
: try to kill things before you run out and hit those switches. Save your
: fusion ammo, tuck down in the little nook you drop down into and then open
: up on anybody who comes around the corner with your Fusion Cannon. That's
: how I play it, although people who are better players than me tell me
: that's a stupid strategy, but it seems to work. Once they're all dead, you
: can hit those switches and go back up top at your leisure.

: Hope this helps,
: -Forrest

Hi Forrest,

Thanks for the reply. I had tried a variation of that, but not hiding in the niche. I have now tried it several times. Still dying. Verrrrrrry hard. A couple of times I was able to kill all the ticks but had only a little life left. Would get killed after going out to get the other switches. I will keep trying. I have had better luck with the havoc rifle just continuing firing bullets and grenades. Maybe I'll get luck soon. On the Omega revision may I suggest putting the 3x power up down in the tunnel where you drop down. Maybe put it on the left side. Then while hiding in the niche and your power gets low you could then duck out and get it. I think that would be better than on first entry.
Thanks again, and I'll keep trying.
Jody
