Walkthrough

1
Screamers possess the ability to scream loudly, knocking you back if you are caught in the blast. Walking directly into the scream feels like walking against a strong wind.
2
To get into melee range, walk out of the scream's blast and approach from the side.
3
Use your strongest melee weapon to bonk them on the head to interrupt their scream.
4
If you have a gun, you can deal with Screamers easily at range, staying out of their vicinity.
5
The scream also attracts a large number of zombies, and more appear with each new scream.
6
Use AoE damage, like curveball bombs, to deal with both the zombies and the Screamer simultaneously.
7
Status effects like burning and electrocuting can also help damage the Screamer and surrounding zombies.

Tips

Nikki Gutte is the first Screamer variant you will encounter.
Screamers are not big and bulky like Crushers or Slobbers, but their scream is their primary threat.
Don't entirely neglect the Screamer, as she will continuously attract more zombies.
