Dust Man

Dust Man (ダストマン) is a strange Robot Master with a built in vacuum cleaner, originally used for sanitation. His main method of attack is a bomb encased in scrap metal which launches shrapnel in several directions. He was created by Doctor Mikhail Cossack.

Mega Man 4
Dust Man has two main means of attack. He'll shoot his Dust Crusher at you, a block of compacted scrap metal. This block explodes into four pieces that each shoot diagonally, which you'll have to avoid. Dust Man's other attack is enabling his vacuum feature. Once activated, you will be sucked toward him, attempting to collide with you. Sliding away from this is the easiest way to avoid running into Dust Man. It's best to use the Ring Boomerang on him, his weakness, as it will make quick work of him; however, the Mega Buster is perfectly fine against him, too.

Mega Man: The Power Battle
In Mega Man: The Power Battle, the same basic strategy can be applied to Dust Man. Simply avoid his Dust Crusher when it explodes, and slide away from him when he tries to suck you in or when he jumps.
