Stuck at Elevator Mr X

[Rafael_Taets]

I am on hard, thinking I won't be able to finish the game at all, it's been a few months. Maybe I should reload prior to Birkin fight and try to not get hit/keep the health resources for Mr X. Any hints to how to properly avoid X attacks? The progressively smaller arena and his insta kill charge is such an annoyance lol

For my hard core runs, I just brought nearly all my grenades to stall him. That was the most important thing. What kind of ammo do you have? You might try using the ammo first, and then the grenades, because at first, he can't instakill.

Pistol (64) and shotgun(16), and some flame (a 100 and something). One flash grenade.

Well, yeah, technically, you don't need anything, but I couldn't give you any tips to win that, but personally I'd call that impossible. You can watch others dodge the 3 minutes on YouTube or whatever. Do you at least have the stock for Matilda? At least that will allow you to fire quickly. Still doubt it will be enough. If you do have the Matilda, maybe you could go back to before Birkin and use it on Birkin instead, but you only talked about saving health items and not ammo.

I do have the upgrade. I looked up and the X bossfight is just a timer apparently, yeah I probably should get at least one spray to help me survive long enough. Thanks

If you're still on this, a few further tips in addition to the above:
-Save the flash grenade for the instakill charges if you can (I like to save it for when the RL drops cause he goes straight for an attack)
-Otherwise use whatever ammo you have to whittle down his timer.
-Don't miss the first aid spray at the bottom of the elevator, the green herb just before the ladder and the red herb next to the battery, then you can at least have two full heals.
-Another tip is to keep the two chunks of rock that first fall as intact as possible. Put these chunks inbetween Mr X and yourself as they can stop an instakill charge and also save you from getting hit if your health runs low.
-If you notice Mr X is gearing up to jump towards you, run towards him and he will fly past you, giving you ample time to get to the other edge of the platform, turn and get a few shots in before he comes for you again.

I hope you don't have to restart like I did a couple of times, but you can do it. Don't give up, and good luck with your runs!!
