The Mercenaries Discussion

My best is 59K on the castle stage with Wesker. I was so close to the 5 star ranking. Wesker totally pwns on that level especially.

As for the Doc, there were times when I tossed a grenade at him and he staggered, but didn't fall down. If he doesn't fall down then there's no point in running up to him to blast him. If you can knock him down, then it's over for him. I suppose that he only took splash damage whereas it probably has to be a direct hit to knock him down.

Knife only? O_O Nope. .

I heard it from IGN boards I think. This guy takes out the big bastard using only a knife.

Something about letting the Doc commit to the attack, then backing off then slashing his face. Rinse and repeat. >.>

 

[The Miz]

So does each character have his or her strong stage that they're especially good at or what?

 

[H-F Blade]

Judging by video recordings, it may be so. Wesker is especially good on the castle stage and then there are characters like Krauser who are good on any stage.

 

[The Miz]

I unlocked all the characters.

It appears to me that Krauser is best in the Village and Waterworld, Ada is best on the Military Base, as is Leon, Wesker is best in the Castle, and HUNK is a toss up as it really doesn't matter, as long as its not the Village for him.

Just based on personal experience from today.

 

[H-F Blade]

Hunk can handle the village pretty well. Round up a group of enemies near a treasure chest and lob grenades. You can get tons of points that way. Other than Krauser, he can handle the Bella Sisters easily with his neckbreaker attack.

 

[Xephon]

Yup, HUNK is suited for the village. A good tmp burst into the heads of the sisters will stun them long enough for a double neckbreaker.

 

[H-F Blade]

Not only that, it saves you ammo as well since TMP ammo isn't really that powerful. And the sisters can take a lot more hits than the other villagers.

 

[The Miz]

Yeah, I don't use HUNK because all he does is have TMP ammo. :/
I usually use Wesker and Krauser.

 

[H-F Blade]

The good thing about Hunk and Krauser though is the fact that they only carry one type of ammo, so running out should be a problem because the enemies will only drop one kind of ammo.

 

[Master5]

the one type ammo thing does help but krauser has his arm which decimates anything in his path for about 7 feet which helps a lot in hard times or when ur backed in a corner

 

[H-F Blade]

You can't always rely on the arm though because you have to wait about 45 seconds before you can use it again.

 

[The Miz]

I thought it becomes red once you kill X amount of enemies?
But yeah the only arm move I ever did with Krauser was the horizontal stab, it took out the Doc in 1 hit too and about 10 other zombies when I used it once in Waterworld.

 

[H-F Blade]

I think it's all time based because even when you don't have a streak going it'll become available eventually.
