While the enemy is in this burning state, it receives constant damage, and the enemy will wander aimlessly without stopping to attack the player until the burning state has expired after 5 seconds. If an enemy makes contact with the Incinerator's projectiles or with the resulting pools of lava, then the enemy will light on fire and change to a red hue. There is no limit to the number of pools of lava that can exist simultaneously, but each pool evaporates after 10 seconds. These fiery projectiles burn enemies and coalesce into pools of lava on the ground. Its projectiles are fired in a slow-moving arc, making the Incinerator difficult to operate at longer ranges. The Incinerator resembles the Freezethrower, but it launches fiery projectiles instead of ice. The Incinerator shares the same number assignment as the Freezethrower, analogous to how the Shrinker shares a number assignment with the Expander.
The Incinerator is a weapon introduced in Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour.
