The Mighty Boot (sometimes called Mighty Foot) is Duke's signature "weapon". Duke always has access to this means of attack, and can even deliver a kick while holding another weapon.

[edit] Description
Duke Nukem's one and only melee attack, it consists of a swift foot planted squarely into the enemy's face.
However, this attack's usefulness extends far beyond attacking enemies. It can be used to break glass windows, vents, metal bins and so on.
A useful feature of the Mighty Boot is that it can be used even while holding another weapon, via the "Quick Kick" key. Tapping this key will deliver a swift boot without having to switch weapons. However, the numbers of kicks the player can do is noticeably slower as opposed to when the player is using the Mighty Boot as a singular weapon.
Quite clearly, this attack has no ammo and is always available to use.
The damage of the Mighty Boot increases with the use of Steroids.
[edit] Tips and Tricks
- Holding down the fire key (when the Mighty Boot is selected) or the "Quick Kick" key makes Duke kick continuously. It is also possible to move around while doing this, resulting in the image of Duke hopping around.
- Hold down the "Quick Kick" key when Protozoid Slimers are around. Any that try to crawl onto your face will promptly get kicked to pieces, leaving you free to worry about more important matters.
- The Mighty Boot can destroy most objects, but not the rubber bins. Those bins can only be destroyed by explosions.
[edit] Trivia
- Version prior to the XBLA display the message "MIGHTY BOOT ENGAGED" when the player use the Quick Kick.
- The Mighty Boot can be used to open doors.
- In some cases, such as Death Row yellow card-lock, it is possible to open the door without a key card using the Mighty Boot.
- In v1.3d of Duke Nukem 3D, with a little practice it is possible to use the Mighty Boot and the Quick Kick at the same time. An amusing sight to behold, indeed. It is still possible to move around while doing this, which is even more amusing to watch. This bug was fixed in the Atomic Edition, to the disappointment of many players.
