Seattle Day 2 - Finding Strings Tips and Strategy

Fighting the Bloater

Bloater.jpg
The Bloater here will start by chasing Joel. Take this chance to land some good shots, because the bloater will start to ignore Joel and charge Ellie. You can use the dodge button to avoid damage. The Bloast can also throw acid like bombs, so avoid staying in one spot for long, and only stop to make a clean shot.

Us molotovs to stun the Bloater and cause fire damage. Take the chance to line up head shots with the bolt-action rifle. A Runner will charge you at some point during the fight. Make sure to finish it off quickly with a melee weapon, like a baseball bat. Avoid melee with the knife, as it will take too long, leaving you open to getting caught by the Bloater.
