How to get pass or kill the screamer lady

[BulletFaith]

Am kind of at a roadblock with this, after the short scene, she started dashing at me, I tried multiple times to set a trap in the elevator lobby before the room,i set up 3 mines on top of each other but she shrugged it off. I then proceed to shoot her at least 9 times in the head before she takes me down. Its been my 10th try and I don't know what to do. She kills me in 2 hits.

Am playing on hardcore and I only have the 9mm gun and the revolver so far. i saw a shotgun and a msg but so far can't figure out how to get to them.

The shotgun is borderline essential to take out the weepers, but it can be done with any weapon, you will need to headshot repeatedly and dodge when they swing at you, if you time shots and dodges well you can even take her down with a knife or axe, though that is pretty hard.

If you want spoilers, you can shoot a button to unlock the door to the shotgun room, and the code for the sub machine gun is on the wall opposite the door, look at the presents on the big poster, each present represents a keypad number.

the weepers are fast, but their hits only has one pattern, which makes them quite predictable and easy to dodge. Shoot them as they charge towards you, when they are close enough, get ready to dodge.

After some considerable damage they will try to scream. Don't let them scream no matter what, because you're essentially ♥♥♥♥♥♥ after that.
Shoot them in the head as quickly as possible, this will cancel the attack.

There is a game mode with only weepers to kill, you can go there to learn their patterns. You will quickly get the hang of it.

You can make her stagger by doing a headshot after dodging an attack. She will always scream after doing her basic attack 2-3 times, or if you're very far away. The scream can be interrupted with multiple headshots from a weak gun or a single shotgun to the face.

One very useful moment game forget to notify you about - Ctrl is dodge button. Melee hit from this screaming zombie can be dodged at right timing (too early and you just waste stamina before zombie does attack) giving some window to shoot back.

thanks you all for the very useful advises, i manage to kill her with a dozen shotgun shots to the face and 3 mines while dodging backward like advised. This monster is ridiculous lol!

Good job!

where is the clue to figure out that the code for smg is the merry christmas presents on the wall? Played and read everything and nothing gives that clue. Bruh how the ♥♥♥♥ ya gotta guess it is that?

Well it's pretty simple deduction, the keypads are always 123-456-789-*0# in a 3x4 grid. looking at the poster you can see that the presents are different on each section of the poster and if you correlate the presents positions with the keypad layout it overlaps perfectly for the code.

You gotta pay attention to the environment, pretty much all the keypad puzzles are like that, though some are way more obvious than others.

If anything, there are plenty of brainsmashers to nuke them in no time, especially as the code reset horde is pretty easy should you have both the revolver and the shotgun.

I typically use the Brain smasher(throwable) one floor below in room connected with the elevator but blocked with the fence

No real reason to though, as the Weepers wake up too slowly, so you can easily place a minefield right at her toes should you see her from afar enough - with throwing a smasher right in her face being a very safe trick ;)

I always go with the shotgun for the first two weepers, even on hardcore its only 7-8 hits depending on the spread and range you engage at, if you run out of shells quick swap to another gun rather than reloading, it's a very repeatable strategy. One lone weeper isn't too scary so long as you have the dodge timing down.

Personally I think the smasher is much better served on the big horde before the shower scene, specially on hardcore, pretty handy on the blade zombie too, he's damn spongy on anything above normal.
