List of Contents
Types of Infected
Runners
Runners are the most common enemy in The Last of Us 2, and the first stage of the infected. They are fairly weak and quick to deal with but, are almost always in groups, or are along side later stage infected, like Clickers and Shamblers.
Stalkers
Stalkers are the next stage of infected after runners. They tend to ambush the player and stay hidden. Stalkers won't one-shot you like Clickers, would but they are a bit tougher to kill than regular runners, and will attempt to retreat after attacking. They are also hard to spot in Listen Mode.
Clickers
Clickers are completely blind, thus there is no need to worry about being spotted by sight. However, they have better hearing, meaning that you need to push the movment stick lightly or else a Clicker might hear you. Clickers are also tougher than runners, can't be meleed without being stunned, and can one-shot the player, making ranged attacks necessary.
Bloaters
Bloaters are a late stage of infected, are extremly dangerous and can take a lot of damage. They also throw acid bombs at the player that will leave a acid cloud that will damge the player over time.
Shamblers
The shambler is a new type of powerful infected that can release spores when damage or killed. Because of how deadly the spores are, you have to keep your distance against them.
The Rat King
Another new infected in TLoU2. This beast is like a combination of a clicker, bloater, and shambler, all thrown into one deadly package.
Non-Infected Enemies
WLF
One of two rival factions fighting for control of Seattle. In addition to infected enemies, you will have to fight these humanoid enemies as Ellie.
