Doom Eternal’s “The Ancient Gods” DLC brings three new missions to the game, “UAC Atlantica Facility”, “The Blood Swamps” and “The Holt”. Each level has one Support Rune to be found, which can be equipped to your fourth rune slot to give yourself an additional special ability.

In addition to the three rune slots in the base game, the first of two DLC packs introduces a fourth rune slot that you will unlock upon finding the first of the three Support Runes. To earn the Support Runes on the first and third missions, you will have to first find the Slayer Keys, which will in turn unlock the Slayer Gates. Entering these gates will take you to areas where you will fight waves of enemies on a single life. Once you successfully clear these fights, you will earn your Support Runes. It is recommended that you collect these on Hurt Me Plenty! difficulty, as these Slayer Gates can be very hard. The Support Rune on the second mission can be found simply as a collectible hidden in the level.

UAC Atlantica Facility

Roughly halfway through the mission, you should come to an area of the map pictured below. This will be directly beside a large circular purple area on the map, which is the currently-locked Slayer Gate area, so regularly check your map until you find this spot.

Once in this area, you should see a dark green tarped box to your left (seen below). Grapple up onto this box, then turn around and jump to the top of the orange wall on the other side of the yellow pillar, where Doomguy is aiming in the second image.

As soon as you land on the wall, a turret on the far side will start shooting you, so take it out with a ranged weapon. Once it is dealt with, look down slightly beneath where you were aiming and you should see a horizontal yellow pole that you can swing from. Jump and do a swinging leap from it, then turn right in midair and do a double jump to the purple-lit grate ahead.

Breakthrough the grate and walk through it to find the Slayer Key. The grate will open up immediately in front of you, so drop through and take a left, through the door. Walk past the first set of lasers and take a left to find the Slayer Gate entrance. Use your key and approach the orb in the middle of the room. Interacting with it will take you to the fight. You will get a checkpoint to start, so take as many attempts as you need to learn the spawn patterns and win. Once you complete the Slayer Gate, the orb will be replaced with a Support Rune right in front of you and you can collect it.

The Blood Swamps

This Support Rune will be much less of a pain than the last, as you won’t need to fight your way through a Slayer Gate to earn it and it is located very near to the start of the level. You will come to the area of the map pictured below. Eliminate all of the enemies here before proceeding with the Support Rune.

Head down the walkway on the left side of this area, left of the large swinging fire bars over the pond. At the far end of this walkway, drop down and you should see a destructible wall to your immediate left.

Breakthrough and head straight forward to the far end. Jump out and grab onto the climbable wall, then climb your way up it and take a left. In plain sight ahead of you will be the DLC’s second support rune.

The Holt

Once again, you will need to fight your way through a Slayer Gate to earn the Support Rune. Continue through the level until you reach the area pictured in the map below, very shortly into the level. Punch the tree to the right to knock it down and use it to climb up to the ledge above, then up to the ledge to your immediate left after that.

Turn to your left and walk to the edge of this ledge, overlooking the area you were just down in. From here, you should be able to see the Slayer Key to the left of a tree. Jump and dash out to the ledge ahead of you, then turn left to reach the Slayer Key. Backtrack up the tree you knocked down and continue through the level.

The Slayer Gate won’t actually be for another little while, but keep an eye on your map for when you reach the area pictured below. That large purple circle is the Slayer Gate entrance and that’s where you’re going to want to go. Once you reach this area, use your key to open the Slayer Gate and interact with the orb to be transported to the next fight.

This fight is much longer and more difficult than the one on the first level, so keep yourself moving to avoid getting overwhelmed by enemies and stay aggressive. This fight will likely take you a few attempts, but you do have a checkpoint at the very start, so don’t be afraid to take a few deaths so you can learn the enemy spawns to catch them quicker, especially the Marauders, who you really don’t want to let stay alive for too long. Upon completion of the fight, you will be teleported back to the level area and the Support Rune will appear right in front of you.

Grabbing this final Support Rune will grant you access to the third and final support ability, as well as earn you the “Lucky Charm Bracelet” achievement of trophy. With your three new abilities unlocked, you will be better prepared to tackle these levels at a higher difficulty and will be stronger going into Eternal’s next DLC pack, which will more than likely have another rune slot in store for you.
