How to Use the The Dukes

Deal Devastating Blows to Close-Range Targets

The Dukes are incredibly powerful close-ranged weapons that can hit multiple enemies several times. The weapon also inflicts no damage to cover, which prevents Rabbid Mario from destroying his own defenses.

It is best to position Rabbid Mario very close to the target, preferably on the other side of their cover. With the right skill-investment, you can usually one-shot the targets on the other side.
