Detailed guide for the Leech Man enemy in Resident Evil Outbreak, covering its behavior, attack patterns, and strategies for survival and defeat.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The Leech Man is encountered in various scenarios, often in dark or confined spaces.
  2. 2
    Its primary attack is to latch onto the player, causing continuous damage and potentially infecting them with a leech.
  3. 3
    If infected, a leech will appear on the player's HUD, slowly draining health. This can be removed by using a Cure-1 or Cure-2, or by having another player shoot the leech off.
  4. 4
    The Leech Man can also perform a lunging attack and a swipe attack with its elongated limbs.
  5. 5
    When it attempts to latch on, a quick button mash or specific command (depending on the scenario) can help shake it off.
  6. 6
    It is vulnerable to fire and explosive weapons. Shotgun blasts can stagger it, creating an opening.
  7. 7
    In some scenarios, destroying the Leech Man might be optional, but it often guards progress or items.
Tips
  • Always carry at least one Cure item when expecting to encounter a Leech Man.
  • Conserve ammunition for more dangerous threats; aim for weak points if possible.
  • Listen for its distinct hissing or gurgling sounds, which often precede an attack.
  • If playing with others, coordinate to have one player draw its attention while another attacks or heals.
  • Be aware of your surroundings; Leech Men can emerge from unexpected places.
