Here are some tips based on my experience playing RE4 (normal and professional level):


DEL LAGO: hit Del Lago when it don't drag you near the trees.

EL GIGANTE: The most effective weapon for beating el gigante is TMP, so make sure you have sufficient amount of TMP ammo. shoot el gigante till the parasite come out of his back, then use knife, for normal level it took only 4 attemp to defeat el gigante.

RIGHT-GATE EL GIGANTE: same as above

LEFT SIDE EL PASO (chainsaw at the camp) : First, kill all the weakling while avoiding the chainsaw. I ussualy employ the hit and run tactic using shotgun (one hit and then run). after all the weakling gone, lure the el paso (two of them) to the ground, then climb the stair quickly. after that you can just let them climb the stair and knock down the stair repeatedly. Sure it took some time to kill them but it safe tou LOTS of ammo

CHIEF BITORES MENDEZ: In the Chief's first form, use Grenades to damage him. On his second, use either TMP or Flash Grenades to bring him to the floor, then blast him with a Shotgun.

GARRADOR: Lure the Garrador to attack you while you are near the wall. wait for his claw to stuck at the wall blast him with shotgun/magnum/rifle. You can also distract him with the bell, you can knife it or shot it with handgun. And make sure you walk, don't run or else he'll hear you

CAGE GARRADOR: Quickly break the lock using shotgun, then get out. Get rid of the weakling (the monks). Kill the Garrador using the same tactic as above

King Grail Knight : Make sure you have at least 3 flash granade. This is really essential, cause once the head gone you can get rid of the ganados by throwing your flash grenade

DOS GARRADORES: Get rid of the monks first. Then you deal with the garrados one at a time. Use your magnum at close range shot to maximize the kill damage

VERDUGO: Now actually it's very easy if you haven't use the rocket launcher that you get from before. Use the liquid nitrogen to freeze him then shot him with rocket launcher..done!

DOS GIGANTES: Get rid one gigantes by pulling the lever the lava pit. Careful not too close to the lava pit bacause the gigantes will drag you to the lava pit. After that deal with the second gigantes using the tactic same as I write before

Salazar statue rampage : Make sure you shot the lock on the door (using riffle) before the statue chase you. It will make you less panic when the you reach the door :P

RAMON SALAZAR: Buy rocket launcher from the mercenaries outside. Shot the eye one time with magnum until salazar leave exposed. SHot him with rocket launcher...DONE!

"IT": This is the one that I hated the most. Only use big damage weapon to deal with this thing (shotgun/granade launcher/magnum). Maximze the use of red drum (explosive material) by lure him near it.

JACK KRAUSER: Forget Magnum as the most effective weapon to defeat krauser. One word... KNIFE! I found it the most effective weapon to defeat him in close range. Make sure you knife him at the right time, timing is really essential here. The tricky part actually is when he shot you with explosive and TMP, you have to hit him first with riffle or TMP in order to lure him closer to you.

OSMOND SADDLER: The most essential thing to defeat saddler is your aiming. always aim for the eye in his feet. after the main eye come out you can balst it with your magnum. DO it several time until Aida gave you the rocket launcher.


The most essential thing in this game is actually your ammo management, especially the big gun ammo (TMP/shotgun/magnum/riffle). I strongly recommend you to maximize your handgun. Always aim for the head or the foot.

For beginners, it's kinda hard. To kill the Los Ganados with the knife, get close to them (just walk). When he is about to attack, walk backwards and then forward (if he finishes attacking) and knife his head then use Kick. When he is down, knife him until he is dead. Be wary of the parasite that will come out. These tip is very useful especially in chapter 1 to conserve handgun and shotgun ammo. Do not attempt to use this when the parasites come out or if you're fighting Dr. Salvador and the Bella sisters.

The best way to complete the game in Professional mode is to first
complete the Separate Ways mini-game. You will unlock Ashley's knight
costume and Leon's gangster costume. Selecting Ashley's knight costume
makes Professional mode a lot easier. Ashley cannot be injured or carried
away. Use her for bait when needed. At least half the enemies will go
directly for her, giving you time to kill them and keep your distance from
a crowd. This also works well on El Gigante.

Go to the top of the barn (located next to the house where you found the
shotgun in the main game). There is also a timer under the ladder, and a
chest above, and up the ladder. Go up there and wait for the Los
Illuminados to come to you. When they are mostly packed in, shoot the
barrel inside and jump down quickly. Get what they dropped. Get back up
the ladder and repeat. Note: Do not throw a grenade while there is a flame
barrel down there it will not do twice the damage. Also, be careful of
the Chainsaw Hags that appear. They will cut off your head if you get too
close. It is best if you are Hunk or Krauser to use the neck break and
the transformation of Krauser's arm, which kills them in one hit. With Ada
or Wesker, use their sniper rifles until they are both gone, then jump
down, With Leon try grenades, but it is very difficult.

Note: Save your game before each encounter when trying to see the
following death scenes:

Betrayal: When you are in the cabin surrounded by Ganados, shoot Luis Sera
about five to eight times. An intermission sequence will begin.

Chief Mendez: In the barn fight, do not evade his grab in the intermission
sequence.

Del Lago (before fighting him): Stand on the dock by the lake where you
fight the giant alligator (Del Lago). Fire your shotgun into the water
several times. Eventually, Del Lago will come out and eat you.

Del Lago (when fighting him): After getting knocked out of the boat, swim
back until you are just in reach of the boat. Del Lago will appear from
underneath. Additionally, after killing Del Lago, do not cut the rope.

Giant insects: Let them vomit on you.

"It": "It" has three ways of killing Leon. The first is when he is on the
roof. He will grab Leon and snap his neck. Another is when he has the
scissors tail. He will grab Leon by the legs and cut him in half. The
finwl way happens after the three cages fall and the final fight on the
cliff side begins. Shoot him until he goes underground. Allow him to kill
you when he pops from under you.

Knife fight: At the end, let him press the knife through the cavity.

Molotov cocktails: In the beginning of the game, go up the ladder into the
tower and wait for the villagers to burn you alive.

Prison Boss: Have low life and let him kill you with the first hit of his
charge. He should impale you twice.

Regenerators: Both normal and spiked varieties have their own style of
killing Leon.

Two Los Gigantes: In the magma floor/pool, activate the switch and stand
next to the pool.

Trap door floor: Let Leon fall through the trap door that Salazar actives.

Wolves: When they jump on you, they will ravage your face. Once Leon is
killed, look at their teeth.

When you enter the town, kill everyone. When the second wave of people
arrives, also kill all of them. You can then go into the house and they
will not come out. Additionally, during the mine cart section of Chapter
4-2, the mine car will stop and lots of enemies and two chainsaw men will
load into the stopped cars. To avoid most of this encounter, be in the
front car and immediately shoot the switch. The cars will start moving,
and you will have only have about four enemies to kill.

On chapter 4-3 before you hop in the cart pull out your sniper rifle and look above the tunnel, find the small opening between the wood go all the way to the left. You will see the legs of the villagers, shoot them (They won't do anything if you miss one). Once they are all dead, head through the tunnel in the cart shoot the villagers before they jump into your cart (Stay in the back cart to make it easier). Finally, there will be planks of wood in your path, instead of having to dodge them when your too close, shoot them.

Here I will give you the best tip I can for each boss. Hope it helps:

DEL LAGO: Do not try and hit Del Lago when you are near the trees. Anywhere else, throw a harpoon whenever you can.

EL GIGANTE: Shoot El Gigante with your TMP, and wait for the wolf. When the wolf appears, ignore El Gigante and start raiding the huts. Then equip your Shotgun and blast away. DO NOT shoot the parasite. Knife it using the X prompt.

RIGHT-GATE EL GIGANTE: See above.

CHIEF BITORES MENDEZ: In the Chief's first form, use Hand and Incendiary Grenades to damage him. On his second, use either TMP or Flash Grenades to bring him to the floor, then blast him with a Shotgun.

GARRADOR: Not really any tips here to be honest. Don't use Shotguns or the Rifle to shoot the bells, don't run or walk directly behind the Garrador, and don't use Grenades.

CAGE GARRADOR: No tip required, you don't even need to kill it. However if you insist, make sure you don't engage it INSIDE the cage.

DOS GARRADORES: Get rid of the monks first, they'll only cause trouble. Try and focus on just one Garrador at a time. Don't bother with the bells.

VERDUGO: Probably the most infuriating boss in the game. Now, you don't HAVE to kill it, but it makes your job harder if you just try and avoid it. Take advantage of the nitrogen tanks whenever you can and use your Magnum when he's frozen.

DOS GIGANTES: You probably already know by now that you can pull the lever to tip one of the Gigantes in the lava pit. AFTER the pit has closed, you can engage the second in combat, using your Shotgun and TMP.

RAMON SALAZAR: Move to the left/right side of the room and use your TMP (not your Rifle) to shoot Salazar's eye. Then use your Magnum or Rifle to shoot Salazar when he appears. Under no circumstances should you jump in the pit.

U3: This boss is a really slimy bugger. I won't give you any tips for the cage fight, as that should be fairly obvious. For the big fight though, be sure to use your Magnum, and your Minethrower works well too. Don't bother using the gates.

JACK KRAUSER: Now this is a fight. Incredibley difficult if you don't have the right weaponary. What you should have however are Hand Grenades and a Magnum ready. Don't forget your dodging manouvers.

OSMOND SADDLER: Right then, this is the biggie. The clincher. And you know what? It's not really that hard. The eyes are your target so use a simple handgun to shoot them, knife Saddler in the eye, then go and grab the Rocket Launcher that Ada chucks at you, and fire it at him. Bingo! Job done!
