    After a cutscene, you will fight the Gladiator.
  27. 27
    Phase 1 (Shielded): Keep the Gladiator in your sights with a fast weapon (e.g., Plasma Rifle) and strafe left or right. When the eyes on his shield glow green, open fire and dash left, continuing to fire. Whittle him down this way. His attacks include spiked clubs on chains extending forward, red projections from his shield, and a small area-of-effect (AOE) attack if you are very close. He will spawn fodder and occasional Heavy Demons like Prowlers or Hell Knights.
  28. 28
    Once his health is depleted, attempt a Glory Kill. This destroys his shield and restores his health for Phase 2.
  29. 29
    Phase 2 (Unshielded): Use rockets locked onto him or BFG ammo for significant damage. His attacks are similar, but he will also jump and slam his clubs down. A new attack involves slamming both clubs down in a V shape in front of him, which you cannot pass through. Shoot him in the middle and jump or dash to avoid the energy arc between the chains. He will also spin his weapons in a yellow shield that reflects your weapons back at you. Be patient, stay locked on, and fire when he lowers it. You can now Blood Punch him.
  30. 30
    Perform a Glory Kill on the Gladiator to defeat him.
  31. 31
    After a short cutscene, the chapter ends.
Tips
  • Use the Plasma Rifle for its speed against the Gladiator in Phase 1.
  • Strafe and dash to avoid the Gladiator's attacks.
  • When the Gladiator's shield eyes glow green, it's your opportunity to deal damage.
  • In Phase 2, use powerful weapons like rockets or the BFG for quick damage.
  • Be patient when the Gladiator uses his yellow shield attack in Phase 2, waiting for him to lower it before attacking.
  • You can Blood Punch the Gladiator in Phase 2 when his shield is down.
