DOOM Eternal: All Collectibles Locations | M9: Taras Nabad

Doomguy gets a swift kick in the pants as the difficulty spikes when you arrive in Mission 9: Taras Nabad. This ancient DOOM Eternal space-city is where you’ll first encounter the Archvile, a cruel monster returning from Doom II. Instead of reviving monsters, this Archvile summons buffed-up versions that are even faster than normal. When the Archvile appears, you’ll want to take him down real fast.

Taras Nabad also has some of the trickiest collectibles to find in the game. You’ll have to solve puzzles, smash hidden statues, and press buttons to open locked gates. There are tons of collectibles in this level, and even if you know where they’re located, they can be ridiculously hard to actually get. Check below for all the locations and explanations for how to reach them.

How Collectibles Work In DOOM Eternal:

There are many different types of collectibles in DOOM Eternal: Automaps, Runes, Praetorian Points, Weapon Mods, Albums, Cheat Codes, Toys, Sentinel Crystals and Sentinel Batteries. Every level features an Automap, but not every level will have albums, toys, cheat codes, or Slayer Keys.

Basically, there are a ton of different collectibles, and below I’ll list where to find them all — in order from the beginning of the level to the end. Levels in DOOM Eternal are much more linear, so as long as you follow along, getting every collectible is easy.

NOTE: To make finding collectibles easier, select the “?” Praetorian Suit upgrade for 3 points — it will cause every collectible location to appear on your map.
