Tips
  • Enemy Spawns: Base Majini camp frequently. Garradors and Red Executioners spawn aggressively. Boss spawns can appear random due to high density.
  • Boss Strategy: Use proximity bombs for multiple bosses. Quickly kill Garradors by shooting their back plagas with a powered weapon. Red Executioners are vulnerable to explosive rounds.
  • Enemy Management: If enemies stop spawning, move to the middle ledge, then the top level, and return to the bottom area to encourage respawns.
  • Recommended Skills: Old School (level 3) for quick reloading, Giant Killing for increased damage against Red Executioners.
  • Recommended Weapon Sets: Wesker's L. Hawk magnum for plagas, Hydra for Red Executioners. Rebecca's explosive rounds and MP5 are effective against Garradors and Executioners.
  • Recommended Characters: Chris, Jill, Rebecca, Wesker, Barry, Claire. For Rebecca's weapon set, consider skills like Old School, Giant Killing, and Lucky 7.
  • Base Majini Takedown: Shoot them 5-6 times in the chest, then in the leg for a stun, followed by a melee attack.
