Strategy[]
This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
- Doctor Doom's Arcane Gauntlets are useful for dealing damage to opponents hiding behind cover.
- Doctor Doom's Arcane Gauntlets are not recommended for building playlists due to their low structure damage.
- Even though Doctor Doom's Arcane Gauntlets may not grant fall damage immunity, you can still save yourself by using the Mystical Bomb attack in the air.
- Try not to use Doctor Doom's Arcane Gauntlets at anything farther than medium range due to this weapon's slow projectile speed and bullet drop.
- Doctor Doom's Arcane Gauntlets can be used in conjunction with a Shockwave Grenade to deal damage from an unexpected angle.
- Doctor Doom's Arcane Gauntlets can be especially useful in early-game scenarios due to their unlimited ammo reserve.
- You cannot fish with Doctor Doom's Arcane Gauntlets with the normal projectiles. But the added Mystical Bomb can.
- Using the Mystical Bomb can disable Shield Bubble Jrs on impact. This does not work with the Arcane Blast.
Trivia[]
- In the game's code, the Doombot Boss is equipped with the Chapter 2 version of Doctor Doom's Arcane Gauntlets. But still wields the updated Chapter 5 version when in use.
