You can defeat this opponent by using the liquid nitrogen locations to temporarily paralyze it and repeatedly shoot it (you’ll need to do this process a few times.) Those who want to utilize a faster method can freeze it with the liquid nitrogen in front of the circuit breaker and unleash the power of the rocket launcher to get an instant kill.
