Biting : 10-25%

Learn about the Biting attack in Resident Evil 2 (1998). Discover its damage percentage and how to deal with it effectively in this walkthrough guide.

So, you're running into enemies that just can't seem to keep their teeth to themselves, huh? That's the 'Biting' attack for you. It's not the most damaging attack in the game, but it can definitely wear you down if you're not careful.

This attack is pretty common, especially from some of the earlier zombie types. While it doesn't take off a huge chunk of your health each time, it's the consistent damage that can be a problem, especially if you're low on healing items. Always try to create some space when you see an enemy lunging in for a bite.

Tips for dealing with Biting attacks:

• Keep your distance: If you can, try to backpedal or run away when an enemy starts its bite animation.
• Aim for the head: Headshots are usually the most effective way to put enemies down quickly, preventing them from getting those bites in.
• Use your knife: If an enemy is really close and you don't have time to shoot, a quick knife slash can sometimes interrupt their attack.
• Heal proactively: Don't wait until you're almost dead. If you've taken a few bites and are around half health, it's probably a good time to use a First Aid Spray or a Green Herb.
