In the final mission, 'Grave & Buried', you'll face Makarov's elite personal guard. These are highly skilled, heavily armored infantry units that fight aggressively.
Weaknesses:
- Headshots: Still the most effective way to deal damage, even through their helmets.
- Explosives: Grenades and Drill Charges can dislodge them from cover.
- Flanking: They often hold strong positions, so flanking is key to breaking their line of sight.
- High DPS Weapons: SMGs and high fire-rate ARs are good for quickly eliminating them once their armor is broken.
Strategy:
- Clear the Room Systematically: Don't rush in. Use tactical equipment (Flashbangs, Stuns) to disorient them before engaging.
- Prioritize Targets: Focus on one elite guard at a time.
- Use Cover: These enemies are accurate and deal high damage. Always fight from cover.
- Field Upgrades: A Munitions Box will be vital for resupplying during prolonged engagements. Dead Silence can help you reposition for flanks.
- Teamwork: Let your AI teammates draw fire while you focus on headshots or flanking.
