Duke Nukem 3D Hints
Laser Tripbomb
Tripbombs can only be set on walls, and after two seconds it emits a laser beam. Anything that hits the beam will cause the bomb to detonate, doing major damage. Several Tripbombs can be set close to each other, creating a web of lasers. And when one bomb goes off, the other bombs near by will be tripped too, causing a really big BOOM.
Truthfully, this weapon is close to useless in one player mode (except against certain bosses). In fact, I've seen Pig Cops walk right through these without sustaining any damage. Check the multiplayer section for more info pertaining to setting traps with these weapons.
