No enough ammo to kill last boss hard mode

[ecimir]

Ok, so I get to pre final boss with 11 magnum bullets, 6 flame rounds, 2 acid , 7 shotgun shells, 30 pistol rounds. Somehow I managed to kill pre last boss with my last round. When I get to fight the last boss. All ammo in section before is not enough to trigger cutscene with sunlight. So I am I wrong or I cant beat game anymore?

When you say trigger the cutscene with sunlight, you mean the 2nd part of the battle against final boss, right? You need a lot of ammo to distract the boss it while Rebecca operates the valves to open the hatches on the ceiling.

When I fought the last boss, I had: grenade launcher with about 10 grenade rounds, about 6 napalm rounds, 6 acid rounds and 10 shotgun shells (with a fully loaded shotgun), custom Billy handgun (full clip) + around 120 bullets. I had to spent all grenade rounds, shotgun shells and about 80 handgun bullets before the final cutscene was triggered.

I recommend loading an earlier save or starting from scratch, because you need a lot of ammo to keep distracting the boss while Rebecca is operating the valves, because she is very weak and can't take much damage. Save a lot of green+red herbs and sprays as well to heal Rebecca, as sometimes it's very difficult not to suffer damage in the first part of the battle.

I took around 8 hours on my hard playthrough (I had already beaten it on emulator) because I had to make almost perfect segments dodging and doing the most with the ammo. I saved a lot as well, around 20 times, to be safe in case I made some mistake. That's why I think RE0 is the hardest game in the series among the classic ones.

Did this on hard with 6-7 Grenade launcher ammo 3 acid rounds 7 shotgun shells, about 50 handgun ammo and 1 spray each. Use all the big ammo for the first phase and try to split the pair up using your right analogue stick and put solo mode on....shoot from both sides. Second phase when opening the roof just use the handgun ammo with Billy to lure the monster away from Rebecca. Worked for me on my first hard run when I didn't preserve my ammo properly.

Think I had about ~14 molotovs at that part also, spamming them triggered the cutscene in an embarrassingly quick amount of time. Used all the rest of these + my other 'regular' ammo during the distraction phase.

I left all my molts behind, think I had about 10 lol never used em really cus to slow but yeh I'm sure they would have helped me in that first run and the op now.

You should have conserved all your magnun and grenade rounds, for the scorpion boss you can easily kill him with a knife without taking any damage, centurion dies within a few shotgun shells, the giant bat can be killed with 7+ shotgun shells plus a few normal grenade rounds, so now all your left with are your acid rounds and flame rounds and maybe some extra normal grenade rounds, that should be plenty to fight off marcus queen 3.

Use magnum rounds for both tyrants, and with the 2nd last boss marcus queen 2, use whats left of your magnum, and then switch to your custom handgun to kill him, you should still have plenty of grenade rounds for the final fight, just make sure rebecca has a healing item, so just before the cutscene she's on full health

I hope these vids help, good luck :)

Keep hearing that the scorpion is easy to knife, never tried it myself. Interesting.
I'd recommend throwing most of your remaining handgun bullets at the Tyant mini fights also, since his telegraphed leap attacks are pretty easy to dodge anyway if you keep to his non claw side.
I had every single Magnum bullet available to me in the game ready for the last fight(s).

I already restarted playtrough after 3-4 hours of gameplay and I am not in mood to do it again. What I am asking is: is ammo in the last room before second boss enough to complete game?

[Truly Baz]

My memory is vague, what kind of ammo is in the last room?

Are you sure you dont have any extra magnum bullets lying around? maybe you left some in the facility and forgot about them? but regardless, with the ammo that you have now you can still kill marcus queen 2, but i dont know about the final boss, it took me about 6 acid rounds to trigger the cutscene, if you cant find those missing magnum rounds your best bet is to start fresh.

But, as someone mentioned you can trigger the cutscene by throwing the molov's :) try that before restarting, oh never mind i just read you already restarted, at least now you're prepared

30 handgun bullets, 6 grenade rounds and 7 shotgun shells

I just want to go a bit offtopic here. I want to applaud OP for realising he ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up and instead of complaining he just restarted and accepted the challenge to get better. Why isn't this forum filled with your kind more?

Anyway, I will consider the tips the other people posted here b/c I havent even started to play Hard after the train just yet cuz I try to get more familiarized with the game by repeating Normal over and over. What worries me is not the ammo, but the healing items. Even now I am still in caution way too much.

You just need to make time, not killing him

Marcus isnt as easily distracted with handgun bullets or running in front of him, using grenade rounds completely turns him away from Rebecca, i found that it helped anyway, it's cruicial on hard difficulty to avoid any rebecca deaths

[ksio89]

You can distract Marcus with Billy's custom handgun due to the high rate of fire, you just need a lot of ammo for that. That was the only weapon with ammo I had in the 2nd part of the battle, thanks God I saved a lot of handgun ammo.

But I cant open vavles in a first place. It seems I must damage Marcus enough to make that possible. I guess I ll wait for door skip mod to restart again because in this game are way too much doors. I would bet twice more than in RE HD.

Nope, Rebecca just need to release the valves while you distract Marcus, it has nothing to do with damage.
