Resident Evil 2: 5 Beginner Tips to Survive the RPD

#4. Mixing the Herbs(Red, Blue and Green).

Herbs

If you guys have played the earliest instalments of the game then you're probably aware of how useful the different types of the herbs are in the game.

Well RE2 seems to add a new flavour to it by introducing a blue herb which removes poisons and toxins from your body. Since in the starting area, there are no enemies that could poison you, it may lead to some believe that they are a burden to carry, trust me they are not. Just store them in your inventory for now.

Also, Instead of individually using the mixture of Red and green or green+green, mix up a red with a green and a green herb.

This will restore Leon/Claire's full health and also reduce damage taken for a small amount of time.

The best you can use this combination of herbs is during the boss battles or fighting away with the lickers.

Also in the later areas, mix a blue with red and green which will not just fill up the entire health but also cures poison, guards against them as well as take reduced damage for a small amount of time.

#5. Don't waste bullets on Mr. T.

Mr

T

As if normal zombies and lickers weren't enough, Mr T(Tyrant) an indestructible force made up from the G virus specifically to kill off all the evidence which includes you, will be on your trail throughout the 10 hours campaign of the game. He will stalk you since the very beginning so don't try and waste your precious bullets on him because he can't be killed. Instead, use headshots time to time to knock him down, that too only when you're trapped in an area, otherwise fleeing is the best option.
