Duke Nukem 3D Hints

Cycloid Emperor (Boss #3)

  • Also known as Bad Ass, this guy can really dish out punishment.  In addition to throwing rockets out of his too claws, he also spits out several of the waves that Octabrains attack with.  For a guy that's so big, he moves awfully fast, and like the rest of the bosses, can squash you silly.  Check out the episode 3 area for info on how to beat him.
