'''DCN-028/DWN-028 Pharaoh Man''' is one of the 8 Robot Masters from ''[[Mega Man 4]]'' that has been featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' since version [[1.0.0]]. Pharaoh Man uses his signature weapon, the [[Pharaoh Shot]] to attack.
Concrete Shot is [[Concrete Man]]'s signature weapon, originating from ''[[Mega Man 9]]''. It is featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' as of version [[1.5.0]].


Pharaoh Man was created by Doctor Cossack to explore pyramids and other ancient places, but during Mega Man 4 events he was upgraded into a battle robot to fight Mega Man. He later reappeared during ''[[Mega Man IV]]'' to once again challenge Mega Man.
A blob of cement is hurled in a downward arc that can reach two tiles forward if fired while on the ground. Upon touching solid terrain, it will harden into a block that can be stood on by the user, and will crumble away after half a second of doing so. If the block is left alone, it will break down after three seconds instead. This block is fully solid unless spawned at the user's current location, and can obstruct certain hazards such as [[Force Beam]]s and [[Fan]]s. When enemies are defeated by Concrete Shot, they will turn into blocks, but cannot drop items as a result. If an airborne enemy is turned into a block, it will fall straight down, being able to crush other enemies and even [[bosses]] should they be below. [[Carricarry]], [[Petit Devil]], and [[Fire Totem]] can be defeated in one shot by this weapon.


==Behavior==
Another main feature of Concrete Shot is the ability to freeze the magma spewed from [[Magma Beam Generator]]s, making them safe to touch for four seconds. While the beam is still frozen, hitting it with [[Laser Trident]] will break it. While armored enemies will deflect shots as expected, blocks can still be formed on most reflective objects. Finally, blocks cannot be stacked on top of each other.
One of Pharaoh Man's attacks includes doing a few short hops towards the player's direction while firing his Pharaoh Shots in the player's direction. His Pharaoh Wave attack has a huge hit box, but must be charged first, and always travels horizontally in the direction Pharaoh Man is facing. Pharaoh Man will also occasionally attack by doing one jump and trying to land on top of the player.


Evading Pharaoh Man's jumping attack is the most difficult part of fighting him, staying mobile to avoid a direct hit from a Pharaoh Shot isn't easy, as then also evading Pharaoh Man himself require immense focus and careful jumps and slides. His crippling weakness however, is when he uses his Pharaoh Wave. Jumping over the wave is simple enough, especially with the long and obvious charge up Pharaoh Man does. This long charge up also leaves him extremely vulnerable, making it easy to blast him with charge shots and most other special weapons. Conveniently, he also tends to favor the Pharaoh Wave attack which leaves him more easily evaded and damaged. However, he can easily catch the player off guard by performing his jumping Pharaoh Shot attack.
With the addition of [[Lava]] to Mega Man Maker in version [[1.8.4]], Concrete Shot is given a new interaction via creating solid blocks on Lava's surface. The blocks behave just as they do in any other instance, allowing the player to platform up on vertical Lava or horizontally across Lava segments.

Pharaoh Man can occasionally begin by using the Pharaoh Wave, making him predictable and easier to counterattack.

==Trivia==
*Pharaoh Man is included as a built-in boss in the Mega Engine. As such, he was the first boss ever added to ''Mega Man Maker''.
*Due to how the weapon functions, [[Pump Man]] can be easily defeated by turning one of the bubbles that make up his Water Shield into a block.  If the block is above him when created it will instantly crush him.
*In the end credits of ''Mega Man 4'', Pharaoh Man is mistakenly labeled DWN-026, which is supposed to be Toad Man's number.
*[[Spring Man]] can also be killed in one shot with it by turning his Wild Coils into blocks, but this requires more precision.  
*Pharaoh Man is one of few Robot Masters that have two special weapons that the player can get upon defeating him. In ''Mega Man 4'' and ''Mega Man IV'', Mega Man would obtain the Pharaoh Shot. Meanwhile in ''Mega Man: The Power Fighters'' series his defeat will give the player his Pharaoh Wave instead which functions identical to how he uses it.

Concrete Shot is Concrete Man's signature weapon, originating from Mega Man 9. It is featured in Mega Man Maker as of version 1.5.0.

A blob of cement is hurled in a downward arc that can reach two tiles forward if fired while on the ground. Upon touching solid terrain, it will harden into a block that can be stood on by the user, and will crumble away after half a second of doing so. If the block is left alone, it will break down after three seconds instead. This block is fully solid unless spawned at the user's current location, and can obstruct certain hazards such as Force Beams and Fans. When enemies are defeated by Concrete Shot, they will turn into blocks, but cannot drop items as a result. If an airborne enemy is turned into a block, it will fall straight down, being able to crush other enemies and even bosses should they be below. Carricarry, Petit Devil, and Fire Totem can be defeated in one shot by this weapon.

Another main feature of Concrete Shot is the ability to freeze the magma spewed from Magma Beam Generators, making them safe to touch for four seconds. While the beam is still frozen, hitting it with Laser Trident will break it. While armored enemies will deflect shots as expected, blocks can still be formed on most reflective objects. Finally, blocks cannot be stacked on top of each other.

With the addition of Lava to Mega Man Maker in version 1.8.4, Concrete Shot is given a new interaction via creating solid blocks on Lava's surface. The blocks behave just as they do in any other instance, allowing the player to platform up on vertical Lava or horizontally across Lava segments.
