Cloning Machine

The Cloning Machine is a device used in Iris Stage 3 of Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~ to do the boss rushes in the place of the Homonculi from the original game.

Unlike the Golems which directly copied the bosses, the Cloning Machine creates a clone of one of the eight RKS members and then flies away. After defeating all eight clones, a teleporter leading to the Iris Machine II will appear.

Notable Differences from the originals

• Liebea and Sichte both have walls added to their boss rooms.
• Luste's boss room has an additional platform in the second phase of the fight due to the teleporter out of the room needing to be there.
• Zorne and Trauare will not perform their duo attacks under any circumstances, nor will Zorne activate the countdown after entering Desperation Mode.

Trivia

• The Cloning Machine is similar in both design and functionality to the machine used to create Copy Robot in Mega Man 1 and Mega Man: Powered Up.
• Like the Homonculi before it the Cloning Machine is a reference the Mega Man series' re-battle against the Robot Masters in the final stages of the game, starting from Mega Man 2.
• The music that plays against the clones is "Four Heavenly Kings", composed by DEAD END WONDER, which is the same music played as the Schwarzkreuz boss theme.
