Walkthrough[edit]
Essentials[edit]
There is only one objective in this level: kill the Cyber Prototype. This large black variant of the cyberdemon has 15,000 health and is highly aggressive, attacking whenever it can see you; using the large octagonal columns around the arena is vital to avoid a swift death. The prototype has three main attacks:
- A stream of pink plasma projectiles which are easily avoided.
- Five rapid-fire rockets which can be avoided by strafing.
- Three black homing rockets that deal heavy damage; hide behind the columns to avoid them.
When the prototype reaches 10,000 health it will start firing its projectiles at angles as well as summoning guardian cubes which pursue you and fire projectiles. When the prototype reaches 5,000 health, it will start using the bruiser demon's floor-hugging fireballs which are released in all directions. The prototype's health is displayed as a percentage in the top-right of the screen to help you.
Use every weapon in your possession to destroy the prototype; weapons and supplies can be found around the square columns at the edges of the arena. Once the prototype is killed, any surviving guardian cubes are automatically destroyed and the game will end.
