How to kill the witch on realism?
Because crowning her seems to not work properly on this gamemode. Looks like she has more than 1000 hp.

I guess it's not possible to crown her with the auto pump/chrome. Just try to avoid her or make use of crowning her with 2-4 people.

Thanks for the info, I thought there was a way to kill her on this gamemode.
Use the flame exploit or explosive ammo + melee

Here is a video of how to kill or face witch without including with the method of crowning:

And if you play on a local server you can vaporize the witch with explosives:

And other things about her too.

You can either use a desert eagle to shoot her in the head while she is completely "calm", stumbling her, then shove her while shooting her.

Or you can throw a molotov at her and go idle while it is in the air, which will ignite her but also confuse her so she doesnt go after you.

Or if you have 4 players communicating you can all run up to her in unison and hit her once each with melee.

Does that work in Realism? I thought Witch was immune to knockback effect from explosive ammo.

Molotov or bile + going idle.

If all else fails, find the nearest room with an intact door and shoot her through or wait for your team to do it for you.

Solves everything.

I usually burn the witch with fire and run while other teammates focus fire on her as she burns out. Or shoot the witch and hide behind a door while others focus fire and kill.

You can also check out this guide for more witch handling tips.

Yes, and then she will break that door in 2 seconds or less and kill you.

Better, non cheating trick, is to use the environment to your advantage. Witches takes some time to climb up over things. Basically, shoot, jump on things, jump off, jump back etc. And keep shooting. Another good one is to use unreachable spots, there are some of those on most maps, but needs some know how to get there.

Its easy and works in two ways, ''1 - sniper/ak + melee'' ''2 - magnum + autoshotgun.'' You gotta hit a headshot but it only works if she's crying, if she looks at you, just stay away and wait her to cry again, so, if you're using the way 1 - sniper/ak + melee, hit her with a headshot, but be careful, only one single shot, if you hit more than one, you will activate her and she will kill you, so, one single headshot and she will flinch, right when you hit her you have to run close to her and change to the melee weapon, use the right click of the mouse to push her, so, hit her with the melee, and then, push her again, every time you push her, you have to hit once with the melee, so it works like that, push her, hit her, push her, hit her, you will kill her with four hits, got it? And the way 2 is almost the same than way 1, the only difference is that you will hit the headshot with the magnum to make her flinch, but this way is more dangerous, is better if she's close to a wall, so when you hit the headshot, she won't flinch to a long distance, and is easier to hit the headshots with the autoshotgun. So, hit her with a headshot using the magnum, if the shot hit her in another part of the body, you're dead, you gotta hit a headshot, so, when she flinches, change to the autoshotgun fast and run to her, so, push her and hit 3 headshots with the shotgun, push her, and more 3 headshots, do it like 3 times and she's done. Sorry for my bad english, its not my first language.

Edit: if you want, you can add me and I'll create a lobby and spawn some witches to teach you how to do it.

necrobump but it's flat out impossible on advanced+realism. Just tried it with the autoshotty. 8 flush headshots, still had several hundred health.
