TOP 3 Best Weapon For Leon/Claire

Top 3 Recommended Weapon for Leon

1. "Lightning Hawk" Magnum

How To Get Magnum - Guide & Location

The Lightning Hawk is one of the most powerful gun you will have access to throughout the entirety of the game. You will be able to obtain this relatively early on in the game, and will be able to kill most common enemies in a single shot. You may also use this to bosses and Tyrants to deal devastating damage as well.

2. "W-870" Shotgun

How to Get the Shotgun - Guide & Location

Powerful close range weapon to kill common zombies and several advanced enemies such as Lickers in one or two shots. Although the effectiveness of the gun falls short when shot in range, the gun will be extremely useful in tight corridors and against fast moving targets.

3. "Anti-tank Rocket" Rocket Launcher

Anti-tank Rocket

Being one the top tier weapon available in the game, you will be able to kill most enemies (including bosses) in a single blast from this quad-rocket loading launcher. Only downside of this weapon will be it's limited ammo pool of only 4 shots, & that you will only be able to use them at the final battle.

Top 3 Recommended Weapon for Claire

1. "GM79" Grenade Launcher

GM79

Claire's signature weapon, the GM79 launcher is able to deliver 3 different kinds of loads (explosive, acid, flame) for devastating effects. Not only does it provide high versatility when dealing with various types of enemies, you will be able to kill most common enemies with a single shot. The ammo supplies, however, are limited.

2. "MQ11" Submachine Gun

Resident Evil 2 | RE2 How to Get the SMG - Guide & Location

Although small, this robust submachine gun can hold up to 24 rounds of ammo, and will be able to rapidly take down common B.O.W.s. You would want to shoot this gun in short burst as the high fire rate can burn through ammos in only few seconds.

3. Minigun

How to Get the Minigun - Guide & Location

Able to spurt high caliber rounds in rapid succession, the Minigun can rip through if not all enemies with ease. This weapon can load up to 400 rounds of ammo, and will be your final trump card against fending off the mutated G.
