The stronghold has three floors, and each floor features multiple enemy waves. Enemies will also spawn behind you at times.

  • Loot dropped ammo and gear mid-fight.

Second Floor

  • Another 3–5 cultists, including tough spear and gun-wielding enemies.
  • Use bandages between fights to heal up.
  • Some enemies may chase you back down a floor if left alive.

Third Floor
