How to get in and out
The files also hold 2 entry or exit triggers near this cave (x 242, z -124, height -120; x 81, z -173, height -123); what each one does is not stated there.

What to bring
Read from the files, not from play: each line says which marker or entrance it comes from.

Rebreather
1 Air Canister lies inside. The game describes the Rebreather as "Swim further underwater" and the Air Canister as "Refills rebreather". The files do not give how deep or how long the swim is.

Climbing Axe
2 entrances are marked climb-in in the files. The files do not say what the climb takes; the Climbing Axe is the game's climbing tool.

A weapon you trust
Up to 25 enemies are placed here; the toughest type is the Armsy with 200 health on Normal. The enemy page lists hits to kill with each weapon.
