Master the Corpser boss fight and navigate the challenging Part 21 of Gears of War: Reloaded. Learn strategies for Insane difficulty and find collectibles.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After dealing with the initial enemies, head towards where Cole and Baird appeared.
  2. 2
    Proceed through the area, which will seal behind you, triggering a checkpoint and the next chapter.
  3. 3
    Boss Fight: Corpser
    • The Corpser's main attack is stomping with its leg. When it raises the leg nearest you, move away and then shoot its stomach.
  4. 4
    After hitting the stomach, it will raise its head. Shoot its neck (not the chin, chest, or head).
  5. 5
    Repeat this process three times. The Corpser will back up onto a platform.
  6. 6
    Locate two small hedges on either side of the platform that lock it in place. Shoot both hedges with a shotgun to destroy them.
  7. 7
    The Corpser will fall into the Immulsion, completing the task.
  8. 8
    After defeating the Corpser, head around the path towards where Cole and Baird appeared.
  9. 9
    Proceed through this area; it will seal behind you, triggering a checkpoint and another chapter.
  10. 10
    Tip of the Iceberg (A37): The end of Act 3 is approaching.
  11. 11
    As you proceed, you will get a Point of Interest: the Torque Bow. It is advised against picking it up for single-player unless it's your first playthrough.
  12. 12
    Proceed up the path. Marcus will state that he and Dom will go into the pumping station while Cole and Baird flank right.
  13. 13
    Recommended Strategy (especially on Hardcore/Insane): Head down the right path instead of directly into the pumping station.
  14. 14
    Keep walking until Dom says, "Do you hear that? What the hell's that sound?"
  15. 15
    Take cover at a chipped L-shaped wall and equip the Longshot.
  16. 16
    When Marcus says, "Let's clear that station!", begin sniping enemies. This is easier than the direct approach.
  17. 17
    Casual Difficulty Note: If playing on Casual and it's your first time, you can take the Left Path.
  18. 18
    If you do not have the Longshot, you may be forced onto the platform and have to rely on luck.
  19. 19
    Once enemies stop coming, head down where Cole and Baird likely are and go up the ramp.
  20. 20
    Carefully make your way around the entire platform, killing all enemies.
  21. 21
    Head down the ramp and keep going straight. Look for a green button on the right side to press.

Insane Notes:
