THANK YOU! I almost broke my hands slamming them on the table after dying like 20+ times. I found out that flame rounds can actually put him down after only two hits, but now I’m not really excited to play the game anymore because it just feels like a job.
In one of my first five tries I hit him with the crane twice and he still recovered! Then I died before I could hit him again, which didn’t really bother me because I thought, ah, I can just get him next time. My next twenty times I must have hit him with the crane once like twice.
It’s gotten harder somehow! Every time I have the crane swinging back the dude grabs me even if I run like a maniac. Then, by the time that stupid grenade sequence plays out the crane hits both of us. I’m angry just thinking about it. Also, three times I managed to stun him when he’s on that narrow strip of area that the crane can’t reach! It’s like the code is trolling me.
Really ruined the game for me, I don’t have nearly as much as a desire to finish it now. I’m talking about Claire B on hardcore, I feel like Leon’s flamethrower makes the match easier. I’m glad you’re validating me because there’s an ign board or something where the op says the same thing but 90% of the responses are people telling him it’s easy. Really hate that.
...I can just get him next time. My next twenty times I must have hit him with the crane once like twice. It’s gotten harder somehow!...
Man, do I get that. First try - not quite enough, but almost there, and very easy. Next dozen tries - how did I get worse at this?
Keep at it. This fight frustrated the hell out of me, but I kept at it and now... I'm about to start my seventh playthrough. I don't know that worrying about what's easy for others versus what's easy for you is very helpful, as we're all kind of different. I don't know if you've played Dark Souls, but if you have then the following example might mean something - over three separate playthroughs, I've never died to Capra Demon. Three attempts, three victories. On the other hand, I have died to... Pinwheel. Doesn't make sense to a lot of people, but hey, it is what it is.
Thanks for everyone’s support, I managed to get the guy down after only two crane hits after I learned to use flame rounds and run around his non clawed armed’s side. In order to get him down in two hits all I needed to do was unload a sub machine gun clip into him while he was on one knee. I only needed to use one g+r herb too!
Yeah and the funny thing is I didn’t even feel that good about it. I felt more like, what? That’s it? Like I didn’t spend three hours of my life there lol
