Since the different classes in Hexen have totally different weapons, its good to flag some items and monsters accordingly for balance. Like since the Mage starts with the ranged wand, add some Afrits that appear only for him. And because the Cleric's flechette is so much better than the other two classes, consider subtracting some for him.

Heretic and Hexen have visual language for different types of teleporters. In Hexen, the red portals are for inter-level travel, the red floor pads are for intra-level travel, and the blue floor pads are just teleport destinations. And in Heretic, red sparkles are for intra-level travel, and blue for ending the level.

After learning the basics of editing, you should learn ACS scripting for Hexen. Its how the game accomplished effects like breakable glass, earthquakes, projectile traps, ,puzzles etc. etc. ZDoom Wiki is very helpful.

For both games, dont forget to add inventory items and balance for them. Some people tend to forget about their existence, but they can add a lot of depth to the gameplay.
