Learn how to dodge the Tentacle Ram attack and defeat Final Form Abyss in Resident Evil: Revelations. Includes weapon recommendations.
Walkthrough
- 1When a tentacle aims at you and its pinchers move, it is about to dash forward and ram you.
- 2Dodge this attack right before the tentacle hits you.
- 3If you are on a boat or in a helicopter, use the Gatling Gun to rapidly fire at the tentacles, aiming for any part but especially the front if it faces you.
- 4Be sure to shoot spike shots and be aware of the forward ram attack.
- 5Blast any tentacle that faces you, as it indicates an imminent ram attack.
- 6In Chapter 11, rocket launchers are provided in boxes during the fight against the Malacoda.
- 7A single blast from a rocket launcher will destroy a tentacle parasite; aim carefully.
- 8The best time to fire a rocket is when a tentacle faces you and is about to ram.
- 9If you cannot use a Gatling Gun or Rocket Launcher, use a Magnum against the Malacoda's tentacles in Chapter 11 for heavy damage per shot.
- 10A Rifle is the next best long-range option, though it deals less damage per shot than a Magnum.
- 11Final Form Abyss is the final boss of campaign mode, a Tyrant-like creature formed when Jack Norman injects himself with the T-Abyss virus.
- 12Abyss teleports frequently; it opens its head before each teleport and often before attacks.
- 13Strong weapon fire can interrupt Abyss's attacks and stagger it.
- 14Abyss may use images to confuse you while preparing an attack; target the image emitting purple smoke from its head, as this is the real Abyss.
- 15Blast the true Abyss to stop its attacks.
- 16Abyss may appear behind you.
- 17Dodge attacks like when Abyss creates two images of itself that run towards you to slash.
- 18Abyss can also attack without teleporting, performing close-range slashes or sudden dashes.
- 19If Abyss grabs you, tap the Y button to escape or it will impale you.
- 20Abyss's main weak point is the yellow growth on its back, which becomes exposed when it leans over after taking sufficient damage.
- 21Fire at the true Abyss when it is on-screen to damage it; spam damage whenever possible.
- 22Shoot Abyss in its top half, as its legs are stronger.
- 23When Abyss leans over, blast its yellow weak point.
- 24This boss has a large health pool in both normal and hell modes, requiring a prolonged fight.
- 25Even a rocket launcher will not defeat it without additional weapon fire.
Tips
