Boss Strategies

• Yawn 1

Dodging Route:

• Plant 42

Jill: 3 Explosive Rounds. Aim upward upon entering the room and fire away. Barry will finish it off with the Flamethrower.

Knife: Approximately 25 Knife Slashes. Find a safe spot out of reach of the tentacles, and start slashing.

• Yawn 2

Jill: 5 Acid Rounds (4 in Japanese version). After the first 3 shots, hit L1 between shots and Yawn will fall before it has the chance to bite you.

Chris: 12-15 Handgun Bullets. Spam away.

Knife: Make Yawn coil around you, and slash his body (aim downward) as he goes in circles. Approximately 26 slashes to kill.

• Black Tiger

Run towards the webbing on the door. Hold L1 then R1, attack the webbing, perform a pause cancel, and enter the door. If you are not using the knife, note that if you run too far forward before firing (i.e. hugging the door before attacking), the shots do not register, and the run is over. There must be just enough space for the projectiles to hit it.

Jill: 2 Explosive Rounds is all that is needed to blow off the webbing.

Chris: The Flamethrower you found in the previous room will do the trick.

Knife: It is possible to take advantage of Black Tiger's Acid Spit attack to melt off the webbing. Run toward the webbing, facing perpendicular to the doorway. Whenever Black Tiger lifts its front legs to spit acid, run, turn, and repeat. It takes 3 Acid Spits to melt the webbing for you to go through.

• Tyrant

While the other bosses are actually pretty random, the first Tyrant's attack pattern is pretty easy - it slashes with its left claw, so dodge to your character's left.

Jill (Bad Ending): Run straight forward, toward the corner of the room. Equip the Bazooka, and fire away.

Chris (Bad Ending): Turn around and run directly for the entrance of the room. Fire off some handgun bullets, and whenever the Tyrant gets too close, run around the Tyrant's right side (maneuver the character to the left), and empty your clip.

Jill (Good Ending): The Tyrant's attack pattern is slightly different in Jill's scenario when going for the Good ending. It is facing Barry and walks in that direction instead. Run forward until the screen shifts, and fire 3 Explosive Rounds, hitting L1 in between shots to ensure they all hit.

Chris (Good Ending): A perk to running a 100% game with Chris (with the current route) is that he gets the Magnum. Follow the strategy for Jill's Bad Ending.

Knife: Keeping in mind the Tyrant's singular attack pattern (slash with the left claw), the only strategy is to dodge his slashes and slash his other side with a slash from your own knife. Dodge (run forward), slash, repeat. He falls relatively quickly.

• Super Tyrant (Good Ending)

Jill: Explosive Rounds (4 in the Japanese version) will prompt Brad to drop the Rocket Launcher.

Chris: Magnum Rounds will prompt Brad to drop the Rocket Launcher.

Knife: Not applicable.

Tricks

• Pause Cancelling: Raise your weapon with R1. Fire with X (Square in the Japanese version), then immediately enter and exit the inventory screen after firing. This cancels the weapon-lowering animation.
• Rapid Fire: A Turbo Fire controller, when running at a certain hz level, can cause a gun to fire 1.5x faster than normal. This trick is known to work in RE1, 2, and 3. Without a turbo fire controller in RE1, it is possible to make a handgun fire faster with timed presses of the L1 button.
