6. Vegas In Ruin | Campaign Duke Nukem Forever Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Right after the beginning of the level approach the EDF vehicle where you can change your weapon and restock on ammo. Inside the vehicle there's an armour, very similar to Master Chief's in Halo - approach it and look at the helmet. It's the first of three famous helmets that you need to find in the game to unlock Bucket Head.

After going a bit further down the street you will reach a machine gun nest which you can use to grind hordes of Pigs and assault troopers. However make sure no one approaches you from behind. Move on following the left lane to avoid the fire of the machine gun on the right. Nearby the barricade (in the form of a downed vehicle) which you will reach you will find a small "armoury" below the destroyed bridge, which you can use while you're at it.

After one of your EDF buddies destroys the barricade, follow your new companion. While going down the street, look out for one of the bigger Pigs with a RPG and its sidekicks, who will be throwing red barrels at you. Nearby you will also find a supply chest, including pipe bombs and steroids.

Once you reach more machine gun nests, use one of them to fight off the Pig wave coming your way. Soon afterwards you will find a RPG - I'd strongly recommend taking it, as soon you will have to fight a boss. Go down into the canyon, apparently created as a result of a big explosion, and prepare for fight - the Battlelord is coming (preceded by a few waves of lesser enemies).

During the Battlelord fight you can depend only on your RPG and it stays true with all the other bosses in the game. The launcher can hold up only 5 rockets at once, but it's not a big problem as there are two EDF chests on opposite sides of the battlefield, which will provide you with an unlimited amount of ammunition.

Remember that the RPG has a lock-on system - you just need to keep the cursor on the enemy for a few seconds. Look out for wrecked cars as the enemy can kick them towards you and for blue grenades during the fight. After a dozen or so properly fired rockets, the Battlelord will fall to his knees.

You have to quickly run to him and follow the prompts displayed on the screen. After you finally defeat and humiliate the boss, a passage leading to the next level will open.
