The explosives that your character will get will vary per stage depending on the enemies in the stage. Your current explosives will be displayed on the touch screen below the current amount of green herbs in your inventory. ** In order to equip an explosive weapon, a player must touch the icon of the explosive on the bottom touch screen. This is the only way to equip the explosive weapon. After your character is finished the weapon, press up or down on the control pad to switch back to the weapon that your character had equipped prior to equipping the explosive weapon. Herbs can be used by touching them on the bottom screen as well.Below is a list of the amount of damage that each character takes per attack
along with the amount of health that they will recover per herb heal. Damage
taken shows how much damage the character will take from an enemy attack.
Recover Rate shows how much health a character will gain from a green herb heal
assuming that the character starts with 1000 health.
CHARACTER DAMAGE TAKEN RECOVER RATE
--------- ------------ ------------
Barry 90% 180
Barry (Patriotic) 130% 390
Chris 100% 300
Chris (Pilot Suit) 90% 330
Claire 110% 360
Claire (Suit) 80% 240
HUNK 90% 270
HUNK (Mr. Death) 70% 180
Jill 110% 330
Jill (Casual) 120% 390
Krauser 80% 210
Krauser (Exo-Skeleton) 60% 150
Rebecca 130% 450
Rebecca (Nurse) 150% 600
Wesker 110% 300
Wesker (Uroboros) 50% 90
IMPORTANT: When a player is in red health, the next enemy that is defeated will
always drop a green herb if the player has no green herbs and no green herb
drops are in the current stage. It's a guaranteed 100% drop as long as a green
herbs is not in the area or inventory (in duo both player's inventories count).
============
DYING STATUS
============
Once a player's health is fully drained, the player's character will enter
dying status. While in dying status, a player cannot attack or run - the
character can only limp while moving slowly. Tap the Y button to recover life
while in dying status in solo mode in order to recover. If a player gets
knocked into dying status a second time without healing prior to that, the
player will have to regain even more health while surrounding enemies are free
to attack.
In duo mode, a dying status player must count on a partner for revival. The
health bar will constantly drain while the dying status player limps. Approach
the player that is in dying status and tap the Y button to revive or heal the
player. A character will automatically use a recovery herb that is in their
inventory while trying to revive a player.
===================
ENEMY SCORE AMOUNTS
===================
Each enemy that is killed in a stage will yield a specific amount of points
based on the enemy type and overall difficulty of the enemy. Normal enemies
will yield a small amount while boss type enemies will add a much greater
amount to the overall point total. There are a total of 150 enemies in most
later missions.
-- Normal Enemy Points List -- Boss Enemy Points List
.---------------------------------. .-----------------------------------------.
| ENEMY TYPE | POINT AMOUNT | | ENEMY TYPE | POINT AMOUNT |
|=================================| |=========================================|
| Majini (Town) = 300 | | Executioner Majini = 5,000 |
| Majini (Base) = 400 | | Chainsaw Majini = 10,000 |
| Zealot = 400 | | Gatling Gun Majini = 10,000 |
| Bui Kichwa = 400 | | Garrador = 10,000 |
| Cephalo = 800 | | Super Salvador = 15,000 |
| Duvalia = 900 | | Executioner Majini (Red) = 15,000 |
| Big Man Majini = 1,000 | | Popokarimu = 35,000 |
| Chicken = 2,000 | '-----------------------------------------'

==============
COMBOING KILLS
==============
Kills can be chained if enemies are defeated within 10 seconds apart from each
other. Directly after two kills have been chained, an indicator of the current
amount of kills, shown in white text font, will display in the top right hand
corner of the screen. The indictor will flash a red color for each multiple of
10 that has been reached. As the 10 seconds go by, the current indicator will
begin to flash and when the 10 seconds are almost up, the indicator will flash
rapidly. Once the chain kill indicator disappears it will instantly begin to
award the combo score amount based on the current kills that have been chained.
.---------------------------------------------------------.
| CURRENT COMBO | NORMAL ENEMY BONUS | BOSS ENEMY BONUS |
|=========================================================|
| 2 | + 20 per kill | + 500 per kill |
| 3 | + 50 per kill | + 1,000 per kill |
| 4 | + 100 per kill | + 1,500 per kill |
| 5 | + 200 per kill | + 2,000 per kill |
| 6 | + 250 per kill | + 2,500 per kill |
| 7 | + 300 per kill | + 3,000 per kill |
| 8 | + 350 per kill | + 3,500 per kill |
| 9 | + 400 per kill | + 4,000 per kill |
| 10-19 | + 500 per kill | + 4,500 per kill |
| 20-29 | + 600 per kill | + 5,000 per kill |
| 30-39 | + 700 per kill | + 5,500 per kill |
| 40-49 | + 850 per kill | + 6,000 per kill |
| 50+ | + 1,000 per kill | + 7,000 per kill |
'---------------------------------------------------------'
Chaining kills is necessary to receive a high score. For instance, by killing
the Executioner Majini with a 50+ combo chain active, you will receive the
normal 5,000 points for killing him then you will receive an additional 7,000
bonus points because the current combo gauge is over 50; so instead of 5,000
points for a normal Executioner Majini kill, you will receive 12,000 points for
killing him.
=============
COMBO BONUSES
=============
Combo bonuses are found inside of chests throughout each stage. There can be
up to three of these chests per stage in Mercs 3D. These chests contain a blue
egg timer that will allow a player to gain 1,000 points extra per kill for a 30
second period once they have been collected. The screen will display "Combo
Bonus" on the upper right hand portion of the screen and the player will
receive +1000 points per kill.
Combo bonuses take the place of the current kill chain bonus amount to where a
player will receive the full 1000 points as if the kill chain was already above
50 kills. The first kill does not count as a bonus in any way - only the
second kill and any kill afterwards will give a bonus point amount.
** At 50 kills a player is already receiving 1000 points per kill, so combo
chests are useless after the 50th kill in a kill chain has been reached.

As you can see through the table above, the combo bonus chest amount will
ALWAYS give 1000 points per kill after the second enemy chain instead of the
normal bonus amount that is received through the normal enemy kill chain
system. So at 2 kills, a player will receive 1000 points instead of the normal
20 points through the normal combo chain, which is a 980 point bonus.
It is important to pick up the combo bonus chests as early as possible.
Picking one up before starting your first kill is really the best option.
Picking up a chest after 20 kills starts to really just waste time since you're
only receiving 400 points extra per kill at that time when you could have been
focusing on melee kills to build time.
==========
TIME BONUS
==========
Hidden throughout each Mercenaries stage are orange colored time extenders that
can extend the clock by a certain amount of seconds. There are altogether 3
different type of time extenders that can be collected. Each time extender
will add a certain amount of seconds to the clock as shown below:
.----------------------.
| TIME BONUSES |
|======================|
| +30 |
| +60 |
| +90 |
'----------------------'
Ending a stage by killing all 150 enemies early or performing whatever tasks
the stage requires will give the player an extra 1,000 points per second
leftover. So if a player ends a stage early with 60 seconds left over then
that player will gain a bonus 60,000 points added to the score total once the
stage ends.
===================================
+5 SECOND TIME BONUS PER MELEE KILL
===================================
If an enemy is killed off with any type of character melee, the kill will give
the player a 5 seconds bonus that will be added to the total time remaining to
complete the stage. The 5 second bonus is meant to compensate for the amount
of time that the melee takes to perform. Some melees are much quicker than
other melees however, so this 5 second increase can be exploited to actually
build time or retain time in each mission.
Some melees have the potential to hit multiple enemies at once. If a melee
kills off 2 enemies at once, the player will gain a 10 second increase to total
time. A player can actually set up multiple melee kills to help build time in
each mission. Melees such as Chris' uppercut have the potential to hit
standing and grounded enemies, so a player can set up a single uppercut on a
grounded enemy to where it will hit a grounded enemy beneath the currently
targeted enemy.
The following melees can all kill an enemy and count as a melee kill:
Head stun melees
Arm stun melees
Leg stun melees
Ground melees
Deathblow/Tag Team/Boss melees
Partner Help Melees
Knife Slash (Krauser and Jill's weapon sets)
Time bonus hit
Landing on an enemy (from ledge dropoff)
Most of the melees mentioned above will take prior damage in order to finish
off an enemy for a melee kill. Finding out exactly how much damage an enemy
can withstand before they are weak enough to finish off with a melee is very
important when trying to build time through melee kills.
==================================
DEATHBLOW MELEES (TAG TEAM MELEES)
==================================
Each character has at least one deathblow melee that takes off tons of damage
from an enemy. There are a total of 3 ways to perform a deathblow melee:
1) Equip the "Reversal" skill and get in red health. A deathblow melee can be
done from any stun while in red health while the skill is equipped.
2) When a Gatling Gun Majini or Super Salvador is stunned from a high powered
weapon shot or explosion, run up to them to get the button prompt for
performing a deathblow melee. With the Gatling Gun Majini, he can be
stunned in two ways with a magnum - by shooting him in the body or legs.
3) In duo mode, one player must hit a Majini, Base Majini or Zealot in the arm
and get an arm stun. One player must hit the enemy with an arm stun melee
then the other player must hit the enemy with an arm stun melee as it
staggers. When the first player that performed an arm stun melee gets close
to the stumbling enemy, the deathblow melee prompt will appear. A partner
assist melee and a ground melee that hits a standing enemy can act as the
starting melee in this sequence as well (basically the partner assist melee
or ground melee serves as the arm stun melee starter).
Chris, Jill and Wesker have 2 deathblow melees. They can be done by activating
the deathblow from in front of or behind an enemy when trying the methods
above. All other characters have 1 deathblow melee that will activate no
matter which side of the enemy your character is on. All except for Claire and
Krauser's deathblow melees will cancel a plagas spawn in a normal enemy.
======
SKILLS
======
As a player completes missions with a certain ranking, skills will be unlocked.
Skills can be equipped to each character from the character select screen on
the main menu by pressing the R button while highlighting the character. Each
character can equip three skills at a time.
While highlighting each skill, the effect will be shown below the skill title.
Skills can be leveled up to a max of level 3 by gaining skill points while
completing missions. Each skill has a normal effect and a level 3 effect that
is unlocked once the skill is fully leveled.
Mixing and matching skills can give a player a great advantage in some missions
in the game. Some skills give a player immunity to instant kills, some give
extra healing percentages, some grant unique abilities, some give quicker
reloading time to weapons, etc.
============
SKILL POINTS
============
Skill points are used to upgrade skills. After finishing each mission, a
player will receive a certain amount of skill points based on the overall score
achieved. A skill must be equipped to a character during the mission in order
for it to receive skill points. All skills can be leveled up to level 3 once
enough skill points have been earned.
============
SPAWN POINTS
============
Spawn points are portions of a map where enemies will drop into the stage as a
player kills other enemies. These might be a certain portion of a fence or a
hole in the ceiling. A player can camp out next to these spawn points and
shoot enemies as they drop. Boss enemies spawn from these locations as well.
Every map has several spawn points and knowing their locations can really help
out when enemies begin to stop appearing once so many have been killed.
====================
INVINCIBILITY FRAMES
====================
An invincibility frame is a frame of animation when your character is
completely or partially (during a certain point) invincible to any type of
enemy attack. Your character cannot be controlled once these animations have
started up till the point that they stop; a player can quick reload using the
Revenge or Old School skill at level 3 during these animations. Some of these
obviously cause your character to lose health, but the character can't be hit
with any other attack during that time.
Here's the full list of invincibility animations:
- While healing *
- While jumping from a platform/vaulting over an object
- Performing a melee attack (even hitting a time bonus)
- While recovering from an attack
- While climbing a ladder
- While grounded
- While holding up arms to block debris from an explosion
- Door kick animation
- During a hold, when your character is winning/losing the struggle
- Opening a combo bonus chest
- Picking up an item (requires Old School skill to be equipped)
The invincibility frames for Mercs 3D are not as numerous as RE5 Mercs though
many of them are still the same. Item pickup has no animation anymore and your
character is not invincible while picking up an item unless the Old School
skill is equipped. There is still no item pickup animation at that time
though.
* Healing with a herb will make a character completely invincible now. Your
character can literally heal as an Executiner brings his axe down and it will
pass right through your character. Healing is the most useful invincibility
frame out of all of them in Mercs 3D.
========
DUO PLAY
========
Each mission that has a duo ranking screen per character can be played through
the online duo option. The "DUO" option is displayed on the bottom of the
character rankings for each stage that can be played in duo mode.
SOLO only missions: 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, 2-2, 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 3-4
From the main menu, choose "Duo" then choose either local or internet play.
Choose between the available options that appear:
Global Session (Host) - You will be the host of a session that anyone can join
Global Session (Join) - You can choose between several random sessions to join
Friend Session (Host) - Host a game so that a friend can join from the "Friend
Session (Join) Option".
Friend Session (Join) - Join a session that a friend is hosting through the
"Friend Session (Host)" option.
NOTE: Duo requires that another player have a 3DS with a copy of Resident Evil:
The Mercenaries 3D for local play or a wireless internet connection for
internet play.
While playing duo, if your partner is killing enemies and doing fine on their
own, keep your distance and kill enemies yourself. Only come together when a
partner needs help for the most part. Try to always keep an enemy in view to
keep the combo while collecting time bonuses. It's really good to collect the
most hard to reach time bonuses from the very beginning. Once a boss shows up,
one player can deal with the boss while the other keeps the combo by killing
normal enemies.
A L B E R T W E S K E RCharacter Stats --------------- Damage Rate Recovery Amount Default 110% 300 Uroboros 50% 90 Taunting time: 2.3 seconds ----------------- Default Inventory ----------------- Handgun / Samurai Edge (9/9) Magnum / L. Hawk (6/0) Shotgun / Hydra (3/3) Green Herb(s) = 0 NOTE: Wesker's weapon set has a flaw of low recovery, so any character that equips his weapon set will only recover have health per green herb heal unless a skill (Medic) is used to counteract the effect. --------------- Default Weapons --------------- -- Samurai Edge Weapon type: Handgun Ammo: 9/9 Max number of load: 18 Damage: 400 Reload speed: 1.70 seconds Critical percentage: 50% Wesker's custom Samurai Edge handgun is the most damaging handgun in Mercs 3D per single shot. It weakens an enemy well to set them up for leg stun or arm stun melees. Wesker's own Samurai Edge handgun goes against his melee style of setting up Cobra Strike head stun melees though. With a 50% critical rate, a player will be getting quite a few critical headshots instead of head stuns with this weapon. On the flip side, this weapon has a 50% chance of being an instant kill when a normal enemy (Majini, Zealot) is shot in the head with it, which can help to save a dying combo quickly! With an arm stun leg stun character that has increased damage due to a skill that boosts their melee damage, this gun can work very well for setting up melees. Unlike Barry's Samurai Edge, Wesker's Samurai Edge DOES NOT have piercing, so it can't pierce through wooden shields like Barry's Samurai Edge. -- L. Hawk Weapon type: Magnum Ammo: 6/0 Max number of load: 10 Damage: 2300 Reload speed: 1.53 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% Special Properties: Piercing While not as damaging as the M500 magnum, the L. Hawk has a really good rate of fire for such a powered weapon. The reload animation is quite fast as well - it's even faster than the Samurai Edge handgun. The L. Hawk magnum is a good weapon for stunning and damaging boss enemies. Since magnum ammo can be rare at times, it's best to use this weapon for stunning a boss enemy so you can move close to the boss and damage it with the Hydra shotgun. The L. Hawk Magnum also pierces per shot fired, so it can pierce through a Zealot's wooden shield and armor on Base Majini. -- Hydra Weapon type: Shotgun Ammo: 3/3 Max number of load: 6 Damage: 500 x 14 Reload speed: 3.67 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% When the full spread of the Hydra hits an enemy, it will take off a full 7000 damage per shot (500 damage x 14 pellets), which is a hell of a lot for a gun weapon. The only problem is that a player will have to be at extreme close range to make ever pellet hit an enemy. The Hydra is an excellent boss killing weapon, but it can't stun a boss well on its own. When used in combination with the L. Hawk magnum, the Hyrdra can be highly damaging. Basically, a player can use one shot from the L. Hawk magnum to stun a boss then blast the boss from close range with the Hydra. ------ Melees ------ -- Cobra Strike Melee type: Head Stun melee Hit Range: High Damage: 1200 Wesker lunges forward and strikes with the palm of his hand. The Cobra Strike is easily Wesker's best melee overall. With weaker enemies such as normal Town Majini, Wesker will kill off any Majini that he hits with one single Cobra Strike. He can get multiple kills with one Cobra Strike very easily. The Cobra Strike's speed has been toned down since RE5 Mercs, but it's still deadly! -- Tiger Uppercut Melee type: Leg stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 400 Wesker ducks down and performs a quick uppercut. -- Mustang Kick Melee type: Leg stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 600 Wesker steps forward and kicks the enemy from behind. -- Panther Fang Melee type: Arm stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 300 Wesker performs a quick horizontal swing with his fist. -- Jaguar Kick Melee type: Arm stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 400 Wesker steps forward and kicks the enemy. -- Windfall Melee type: Ground melee Hit range: Damage: 600 Special Effect: Critical if aimed for the head. Wesker stretches his leg into the air and brings his foot down on the grounded enemy with extreme force. -- Dash Melee type: Special melee (Press "right" on the control pad) Hit range: Damage: 200 Wesker kneels down then move runs forward very quickly. Extra Info: Press right on the control pad to perform a dash then press any direction on the circle pad + Y to change the direction of the dash. Every hit after a direction change will take off 200 damage. -- Knee Cannon Melee type: Special melee (Press "Y" during a dash) Hit range: Damage: 1000 Wesker ends his dash with a jumping knee strike. -- Ghost Butterfly Melee type: Deathblow melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 4000 Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn. Wesker steps forward and performs a strike with both palms of his hands. -- Rhino Charge Melee type: Deathblow melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 4000 Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn. Wesker jabs his hand through the enemy's chest then takes his hand out shortly before the enemy's head bursts before its body falls.

Alpha Team | | Marksman | | | | Gender: Male | | Age: 38 | | Blood: O | | Height: 6'1 | | Weight: 197 lbs | \-------------------------------------/ Barry Burton was one of the original members of S.T.A.R.S. Alpha team during the events of the Mansion Incident in the Arkley Mountains of Raccoon City. Along with the rest of his squad, he was sent in to investigate the disappearance of Bravo team. Barry is known to be a firearms expert with the taste for high-power weapons. He uses a custom made Samurai Edge handgun handmade at the Kendo shop in Raccoon City. He escaped with Chris, Jill and Rebecca and hid his family away so he could help his comrades put an end to Umbrella. When it comes to power, Barry turns to his magnum. He even uses his .44 Magnum during one of his melees. His ground melee is easily the most powerful ground melee in the game - taking a whopping 5000 damage per shot, it will kill any normal enemy that he hits. Barry also has a unique head stun Headbutt melee that will critical often. --------------- Character Stats --------------- Damage Rate Recovery Amount Default 90% 180 Patriotic 130% 390 Taunting time: 1.8 seconds -- Default Inventory Handgun / Samurai Edge (9/9) Magnum / M500 (5/0) Rifle / Dragunov (4/4) Green Herb(s) = 0 --------------- Default Weapons --------------- -- Samurai Edge Weapon type: Handgun Ammo: 9/9 Max number of load: 18 Damage: 350 Reload speed: 1.70 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% Special Properties: Piercing Barry's Samurai Edge is easily one of the best handguns in Mercs 3D. It does a good amount of damage per shot fired, each shot will pierce and it has a low critical rate! This gun is good for both head stun and leg stun characters. It's piercing propery means that it can shoot through wooden shields that Zealots carry which can help out tremendously in Zealot stages. -- M500 Weapon type: Magnum Ammo: 5/0 Max number of load: 8 Damage: 3800 Reload speed: 3.53 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% Special Properties: Piercing When it comes to a great amount of power per single precise bullet shot, the M500 magnum will deliver the most damage per shot fired. It takes 3800 damage per shot, so it will kill bosses fast. The main flaws with the weapon are its low capacity and slow rate of fire. It also has a very slow reload as well. Though this is a good boss killer, magnum ammo can be extremely rare at times so the M500 is really a better boss stunner rather than a boss killer unless your character has plenty of built up ammo for it! -- Dragunov Weapon type: Rifle Ammo: 4/4 Max number of load: 6 Damage: 1700 Reload speed: 2.41 seconds Critical percentage: 100% Special Properties: Semi-auto fire The Dragunov sniper is the middle grade sniper rifle in Mercs 3D. It is semi- automatic, so a shot can be fired one after the other and the fire button can be held down for a near rapid fire. It takes some good overall damage, so a player can easily spam a boss enemy with this weapon from close or long range. The only real flaw is that it can't hold much ammo at once, so it must be reloaded constantly. From a distance, the aiming with the Dragunov is not as steady as the S75 or PSG-1 either. Unfortunately, there are no Pentazimin's around in the world of Mercenaries, Snake. ------ Melees ------ -- Headbutt Melee type: Head stun melee Hit range: Damage: 400 Special Effect: High critical rate, Cancels plagas spawn (if enemy is killed) Barry grabs the enemy by the shoulder then headbutts their head. Extra Info: Barry's headbutt is a very unique head stun melee. It has a very high critical rate and it will cancel plagas spawns. Barry can literally toss a flash grenade at any time and headbutt surrounding enemies to kill most of them. -- Burton Boot Melee type: Leg stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 400 Barry moves kicks forward with his right leg. -- Gun Bash Melee type: Leg stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 650 Barry steps behind the enemy and bashes them in the head with the butt of his samurai edge. -- Barry Sandwich Melee type: Arm stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 300 Barry strikes forward with his right elbow. -- Knee Melee type: Arm stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 400 Barry knees the enemy from behind. -- Miranda Rights Melee type: Ground melee Hit range: Damage: 5000 Special Effect: Critical if aimed for the head. Barry takes out his magnum and shouts "I have this" then shoots the grounded enemy. Extra Info: This ground melee works great against Zealot enemies and more powerful enemies. The shot from the magnum will kill just about anything that Barry hits with it thanks to its extreme damage. It can kill a Cephalo without the need for prior damage! -- Hurricane Melee type: Deathblow melee (front and back) Hit range: Damage: 2000 x 4 Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn Barry lunges forward and hits the enemy with his fists while spinning.

Alpha Team | | Pointsman/Marksman | | | | Gender: Male | | Age: 25 | | Blood: O | | Height: 6'1 | | Weight: 216 lbs | \-------------------------------------/ This former USAF pilot is fully trained in both armed and unarmed hand-to-hand combat. Although an exceptional pilot, he was discharged from his unit due to constant disagreements with his superiors possibly brought on by his straight- laced personality. He is S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team's top marksman and tags along with Alpha Team on their investigation into Raccoon Forest to search for Bravo Team. Both him and Jill are eventually chased into the mansion along with their team leader Wesker. Chris along with Jill fights through the horrors of the Spencer Mansion and eventually finds a hidden lab where the ultimate T- virus bio-weapon (at that time) is unleashed upon them by a traitor. Chris survives the Mansion Incident then decides to take the investigation further as he continues to gather information about Umbrella. He heads off to Umbrella headquarters located in Europe but is stopped on his way by a warning from Leon that his sister, Claire, is being held captive on Rockfort Island while on her journey to find Chris. He goes off in search for Claire and meets up with his old Alpha Team leader Wesker once Chris makes it to the island. Learning that Claire has been taken to an Antarctic Base, Chris flies there and manages to save Claire and also destroy that facility. (still need to add Chris' RE5 info) Chris plays much the same as he did in RE5 Mercs and Mercs Reunion. He even retains the same basic weapon setup as BSAA Chris from RE5 Mercs along with an added S75 rifle. His melees take off decent damage and he can melee kill easily if his handgun is used for weakening an enemy. His most effective melees for quickly killing enemies are still his uppercut and stomp. --------------- Character Stats --------------- Damage Rate Recovery Amount Default 100% 300 Pilot Suit 90% 330 Taunting time: 2.3 seconds ----------------- Default Inventory ----------------- Handgun / M92F (20/20) Shotgun / M37 (7/7) Rifle / S75 (8/8) Green Herb(s) = 0 --------------- Default Weapons --------------- -- M92F Weapon type: Handgun Ammo: 20/20 Max number of load: 40 Damage: 250 Reload speed: 1.70 seconds Critical percentage: 20% The M92F handgun is the weakest handgun in Mercs 3D. The only real good part about this handgun is that it can hold the most ammo out of any handgun and it starts with the most handgun ammo. It's best used against Town Majini or Base Majini on most stages. With Zealot enemies, you're going to have to shoot them about five times with this weapon before setting up the stun for most melees in order to get a kill. For a character like Wesker or Barry that rely on head stun melees, this weapon can give several chances for a head stun if the shot accidentally hits another portion of the enemy's body. Since it is so weak, it is not likely to kill. It does have a 20% critical rate that can go against a head stun character however. -- M37 Weapon type: Shotgun Ammo: 7/7 Max number of load: 14 Damage: 400 x 7 Reload speed: 2.40 seconds Critical percentage: 25% From close range, the M37 (Ithaca) shotgun take off 2800 damage (400 x 7 pellets). The M37 shotgun has a tight spread of pellets to it so it is more likely to take its full damage amount from close range. It's best used against bigger boss enemies, such as the Executioner or Super Salvador from close range. It can stun many bosses with about two or three shots. In RE5 Mercs, a player was forced to stand still during the entire pump animation after each shot. Since a player can move while shooting in Mercs 3D, the M37 shotgun is much better than it used to be in RE5 Mercs. -- S75 Weapon type: Rifle Ammo: 8/8 Max number of load: 13 Damage: 2600 Reload speed: 3.67 seconds Critical percentage: 100% The S75 rifle takes off the most damage out of any of the available rifles in Mercs 3D. Each shot takes 2600 damage which is slightly more than the L. Hawk magnum. Unfortunately, it cannot stun a boss like a magnum can though! The main flaw with this weapon is that the bullet shell must be ejected per shot fired, so there will always be a slight pause in between shots to remove the bullet shell. This bullet ejection animation can be quite dangerous when up against some boss enemies, so each shot needs to be carefully planned. The S75 rifle makes for a pretty good combo-saving weapon for when the kill combo is at risk however. Since each shot takes off 2600 damage, it has a good chance of killing a distant enemy when aiming for one. This gun can actually set up a melee for a Big Man Majini rather well when used in combination with skill that powers up a character's melees. ------ Melees ------ -- Straight Melee type: Head stun melee Hit range: Damage: 450 Chris winds his fist then steps forward and punches the enemy with a straight punch. -- Uppercut Melee type: Leg stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 400 Chris leans downward then perform a quick uppercut. -- Neck Breaker Melee type: Leg stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: Instant kill Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn Chris grabs the enemy from behind and twist their neck, killing them instantly. -- Hook Melee type: Arm stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 300 Chris performs a quick horizontal punch. -- Kick Melee type: Arm stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 400 Chris leans back and kicks the enemy from the backside. -- Stomp Melee type: Ground melee Hit range: Damage: 650 Special Effect: Critical if aimed for the head. Chris stomps on the grounded enemy. -- Haymaker Melee type: Deathblow melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 3000 Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn Chris yells out as he readies a punch then lunges forward and hits the enemy with a very powerful punch. -- Backhand Melee type: Deathblow melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 3000 Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn Chris yells out and steps forward then hits the enemy with the back side of his left arm. [MC04] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= C L A I R E R E D F I E L D =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= "You lose, big guy!" --------- Biography --------- /-------------------------------------\ | Gender: Female | | Age: | | Blood: O | | Height: 5'6 | | Weight: 115 lbs | \-------------------------------------/ Claire drove to Raccoon City to search for her lost brother Chris and managed to get caught up in the viral outbreak in the city. She met a rookie police officer by the name of Leon Kennedy. The two struggle through the viral outbreak incident and manage to escape from the city. Later, Claire gets apprehended while in a Paris lab facility and she is brought to Rockfort Island where another viral outbreak occurs. She escapes from the island and later reunites with Chris before escaping the Antartic Base. Claire is the only character in the Mercs 3D roster that hasn't been in a Mercs mini game until now. She is fast and uses two combination melees along with several other decent kick melees. Claire is the only character that can cancel her combination melees. --------------- Character Stats --------------- Damage Rate Recovery Amount Default 110% 360 Suit 80% 240 Taunting time: 5.0 seconds ----------------- Default Inventory ----------------- Handgun / Matilda (15/30) Grenade Launcher - Electric Rounds (6/6) Rifle / PSG 1 (6/6) Green Herb(s) = 1 --------------- Default Weapons --------------- -- Matilda Weapon type: Handgun Ammo: 15/30 Max number of load: 30 Damage: 320 Reload speed: 1.73 seconds Critical percentage: 5% Special Properties: 3-round burst fire If you've ever played The Mercenaries Reunion on Resident Evil 5 then you're familiar with Excella's M93R handgun with its 3 shot burst fire. The Matilda fires a 3 round burst of handgun bullets if the trigger is held down much in the same was as the M93R. When aiming this gun at weaker enemies, the fire button needs to be tapped quickly for one shot to set up a melee. Against stronger enemies such as Zealots, this gun can really shine. With a Zealot's high HP total, a player can easily damage them quickly and set up a stun for a melee rather quickly. With proper timing of knowing how long to hold the button down, the Matilda can work well against weak and strong enemies. The Matilda has a low critical percentage so it can work well for a head stun character. -- Grenade Launcher Weapon type: Grenade Launcher Ammo: 6/6 Max number of load: 10 Damage: 600 - 1000 Reload speed: 3.33 seconds Critical percentage: 0% The grenade launcher in this weapon setup comes loaded with electric rounds. Electric rounds will stun enemies briefly with electricity and sometimes activate stuns on them. Electric rounds can work well for quick damage on a crowd of enemies, but they are best used against any type of plagas enemies. Both Cephalos and Duvalias are very weak against electric rounds. Each shot will take three times the normal damage amount against a plagas enemy. Electric rounds can be used to stun a Garrador as well. When the Garrador is hit with an electric round, it will kneel over and expose its back plagas. When electric rounds are used in combination with the Matilda or the PSG-1, a player can make quick work of a Garrador - stun him with electric rounds then quickly shoot the back plagas. NOTE: Electric rounds can be shot toward the ground in front of your character to make your character perform a flinching pose where they will throw up their arms to shield their body. This pose will make the character invincible to any attack while the flinching pose is activated. -- PSG 1 Weapon type: Rifle Ammo: 6/6 Max number of load: 10 Damage: 1400 Reload speed: 1.70 seconds Critical percentage: 100% Special Properties: Semi-auto fire, Level 3 scope zoom The PSG-1 is the least damaging rifle in Mercs 3D, but it has the option of semi-auto fire which allows a player to fire shots constantly just by holding down on the fire button! The PSG-1 is a good weapon for damaging bosses from long range or killing a distant enemy when the combo is at risk. A player can literally spam an enemy with shots from this rifle. The PSG-1 is quite accurate as well and has the highest scope zoom out of any rifle when fully zoomed in. ------ Melees ------ -- One Two High Melee type: Head stun melee Hit range: Damage: 100, 250, 250 Claire performs two hooks to the enemy then kicks them. Extra Note: Hold in any direction with the circle pad to cancel the kick. -- Upper Combination Melee type: Leg stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 250 x 2 Claire performs an uppercut followed by a right hook. Extra Note: Hold in any direction with the circle pad to cancel the hook. -- Neck Kick Melee type: Leg stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 800 Claire kicks the enemy to its knees then roundhouse kicks the back of their head. -- Fall High Melee type: Arm stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 250 Claire performs a roundhouse kick. -- Back Hook Kick Melee type: Arm stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 400 Claire kicks the enemy from the back with a forward kick. -- Stomp Melee type: Ground Hit range: Damage: 600 Claire lifts her leg upward then stomps the enemy. -- Double Shoot Melee type: Deathblow melee (front and back) Hit range: Damage: 500, 5500 Claire kicks forward then hits the enemy with a jumping roundhouse. Extra Info: Unlike most other deathblow melees, Claire's Double Shoot will not cancel a plagas spawn for a normal enemy. [MC05] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= H U N K =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= "The Death cannot die." --------- Biography --------- /-------------------------------------\ | Gender: Male | | Age: ? | | Blood: ? | | Height: ? | | Weight: ? | | Occupation: Umbrella Special Forces | | Team Leader | \-------------------------------------/ Earning the nickname of the "Grim Reaper" or "Death", this U.S.S. (Umbrella Special Forces) member has been involved in a large number of operations where he was the only survivor of his team. Him and his squad confronted William Birkin in his lab then shot him and took the G-virus sample for themselves. Little did they know that Birkin remained alive and injected himself with G then confronted his attackers in the sewers of Raccoon City. HUNK single- handedly survived the attack and managed to retrieve the G-virus sample. He wakes up in the sewers later and contacts his helicopter at the evacuation point outside the building. With little ammo left, HUNK must then fight through the remainder of the T-virus carriers that roam the police station on his way to the evac point. He keeps his usual attitude during his fight - cold, silent, and emotionless - and keeps one thing in mind - the Death cannot die. HUNK is easily one of the most flashiest and deadliest Mercs character in Mercs 3D. He has two instant kill melees and his deathblow melee makes him extremely powerful when used in combination with the Reversal skill. HUNK can be a time building machine through Side Kick melee kills with the Reversal skill on any stage. --------------- Character Stats --------------- Damage Rate Recovery Amount Default 90% 270 Mr. Death 70% 180 Taunting time: 5.0 seconds ----------------- Default Inventory ----------------- Handgun / P8 (14/14) Grenade Launcher - Flash Rounds (4/4) Machine Gun / AK74 (30/30) Green Herb(s) = 0 --------------- Default Weapons --------------- -- P8 Weapon type: Handgun Ammo: 14/14 Max number of load: 28 Damage: 300 Reload speed: 1.53 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% Special Properties: Piercing The P8 handgun is a good mix of damage per shot fired matched up with an overall good amount of bullets that can be loaded into the handgun at a time before a reload. Throw in the fact that it can pierce through wooden shields and it has a low critical rate for setting up head stun melees and this handgun can work pretty well for most characters. Barry's Samurai Edge is a better handgun if you want a higher firepower mixed with a higher damage rate per shot fired however. -- Grenade Launcher Weapon type: Grenade Launcher Ammo: 4/4 Max number of load: 6Damage: 0 - 100 Reload speed: 3.33 seconds Critical percentage: 0% The grenade launcher in this weapon set is loaded with flash rounds. Flash rounds can work well for instantly killing plagas enemies or for saving a melee kill on a weakened normal enemy. When shot toward the ground, these grenade rounds will create a burst of blinding light that will momentarily blind surrounding enemies and set them up for a head stun melee. Keep in mind that any enemies that wear any type of armor over their head will be immune to a flash stun. Flash grenades can actually damage an enemy with a direct hit. They take 100 damage when they hit an enemy directly, so don't ever hit an enemy with a flash round when attempting to save a melee - fire the shot at the ground instead. NOTE 1: When a player equips the Reversal skill and gets in low (red) health with that character, flash rounds can be used to set up deathblow melees on all surrounding enemies that do not wear masks. This works considerably well for HUNK since his Side Kick deathblow melee is so fast! NOTE 2: When a flash round is shot at the ground directly in front of your character or when a shot goes off very close to your character, the character will throw up an arm to shield themselves from the burst of light. While a character holds up an arm, that character is momentarily invincible to attacks. Don't depend on this animation for saving your character from attacks most of the time though. The animation is much shorter then the flinch animation from explosive rounds and electric rounds. -- AK74 Weapon type: Machine Gun Ammo: 30/30 Max number of load: 60 Damage: 240 Reload speed: 2.83 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% When it comes to power, the AK74 machine gun is the most damaging machine gun of them all. It can be used to damage bosses quickly if needed. The only flaw is that the machine gun has a bad recoil, which can ruin accurate shots. This machine gun also has a lengthy reload animation, but that can be solved by equipping a skill with a quick reload level 3 effect to avoid the reload animation altogether. The AK has no piercing, but it comes with a weapon set that has a piercing handgun so that is not much of a problem. ------ Melees ------ -- Elbow Strike Melee type: Head stun melee Hit range: Damage: 350 HUNK steps forward and hits the enemy with an overhead elbow strike. -- The End Melee type: Leg stun (front) Hit range: Damage: Instant kill Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn HUNK stabs the enemy in the neck with his wrist blast then kick them to the ground. -- Executioner Melee type: Leg stun (back) Hit range: Damage: Instant kill Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn HUNK grabs the enemy from the back then extends his wrist blade and stabs the enemy in the back. -- Riot Kick Melee type: Arm stun (front) Hit range: Damage: 300 HUNK sheathes the blade on his foot then kicks the enemy and stabs them with the blade. -- Neck Slicer Melee type: Arm stun (back) Hit range: Damage: 400 HUNK slices forward with his wrist blade. -- Triple Tap Melee type: Ground melee Hit range: Damage: 200, 250, 250 Special Effect: Critical if aimed for the head. While HUNK looks down at the enemy, he takes out his handgun and fires three times at the grounded enemy. -- Side Kick Melee type: Deathblow melee (front and back) Hit range: Damage: 3000 Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn HUNK leaps into the air then perform a kick toward the enemy.

Under Government orders, both Krauser and Leon were sent on a special mission to South America to investigate Umbrella's relationship to the drug lord Havier Hidalgo. Krauser is a gun for hire. He never sells his time to any one given organization. His loyalties lie with those who will pay him well for his time. Leon and Krauser fight together in South America and put an end to the new strain of T-Veronica. Krauser's arm is severely injured during the events and he is infected with T-Veronica. Krauser learns of a man named Wesker from Leon. He is discharged from the military due to his injuries. He forms a quiet, yet deep, grudge against Leon and seeks out Wesker for a new job. The two meet again in Europe when Leon is searching for the President's daughter, Ashley. Krauser is a mercenary for Saddler at that time. Krauser admits that he was the one that kidnapped Ashley to gain Saddler's trust. He had no interest in Saddler's goals though. His main agenda was to retrieve a sample of Las Plagas for Wesker. Leon and Krauser fight twice during the events in Europe and Krauser is believed to be killed by Leon. Krauser had the most unique weapon setup in RE4 Mercs and he still retains the same basic type of weapons. His Bow has infinite arrows and his knife takes off about as much as a handgun shot per slice and counts as a melee kill after finishing off an enemy with it. Krauser also carries two of the most powerful weapon in the game - the rocket launcher - which can finish off most enemies (including bosses) with one shot. --------------- Character Stats --------------- Damage Rate Recovery Amount Default 80% 210 Exoskeleton 60% 150 Taunting time: 2.6 seconds ----------------- Default Inventory ----------------- Bow & Arrow Knife Rocket Launcher (2/0) Green Herb(s) = 1 --------------- Default Weapons --------------- -- Bow & Arrow Weapon type: Bow & Arrow Ammo: Infinite Max number of load: Infinite Damage: 700 Reload speed: n/a Critical percentage: 12.5% The bow & arrow comes with an infinite supply of arrows. It never needs to be reloaded and a player doesn't have to worry about picking up any type of ammo for it. Against weaker enemies such as Town Majini, it will often kill them too quickly to be useful for melee kills. It is a decent weapon for setting up melee kills on more powerful enemies. With its high damage rate per arrow, it can easily mess up melee kills on just about any normal enemy however. The bow can make a decent boss killer once your character has used both rockets. It's not a good boss stunning weapon, but when arrows are shot while moving a player can constantly focus on spamming a boss with arrows without needing to stop to reload. -- Knife Weapon type: Knife (melee weapon) Ammo: n/a Max number of load: n/a Damage: 300 Reload speed: n/a Critical percentage: 0% Special Properities: Counts a melee (+5 seconds per finishing knife slash) Krauser's knife takes off 300 damage per slice, so it can kill weaker enemies with only about three slashes. The knife can stun enemies by hitting them in different portions of the body much like a handgun also. The best part about the knife is that an enemy that is killed with a knife slash finish will count as a melee kill and give a player 5 bonus seconds. NOTE: The knife is best used while moving. Move while aiming and slash at enemies to kill them off quickly. -- Rocket Launcher Weapon type: Rocket Launcher Ammo: 2/0 Max number of load: 2 Damage: 30000 Reload speed: n/a Critical percentage: 0% When a certain boss enemy refuses to die from any other type of weapon, shoot it with the rocket launcher and it will suddenly disappear! The rocket launcher takes off 30,000 damage per rocket shot. Each rocket launcher only has 1 rocket, so aim carefully. The only boss enemy that cannot be finished off with a direct shot from the rocket launcher is Popokarimu - he can be finished off with two rockets shot as his tail weak point however. ------ Melees ------ -- Roundhouse Melee type: Head stun melee Hit range: Damage: 200, 300 Krauser performs two spinning roundhouses while moving forward. -- Stinger Melee type: Leg stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: Instant kill Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn Krauser grabs both of the enemy's shoulders then knees them in the head and makes their head explode. -- Throat Slit Melee type: Leg stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: Instant kill Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn Krauser grabs the enemy around the neck from behind then slits their throat with his combat knife. -- Up-Slice Melee type: Arm stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 350 Krauser performs an uppercut slice with his combat knife. -- Tackle Melee type: Arm stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 800 Krauser lunges forward and hits the enemy from behind with his shoulder. -- Knife Stab Melee type: Ground melee Hit range: Damage: 800 Special Effect: Critical if aimed for the head. Krauser takes out his combat knife then stabs the grounded enemy. -- Drop Kick Melee type: Deathblow melee (front and back) Hit range: Damage: 4000 Krauser leaps into the air then hits the enemy with both of his feet. Extra Info: Unlike most other deathblow melees, Krauser's Drop Kick will not cancel a plagas spawn for a normal enemy.

Alpha Team | | Rear Security/B&E Specialist | | | | Gender: Female | | Age: 23 | | Blood: B | | Height: 5'8 | | Weight: 123 lbs | \-------------------------------------/ Before joining S.T.A.R.S., Jill spent years as a member of the US Army's Delta Force. Her mad skills for lock picking has earned her the title "Master of Unlocking". Being highly skilled at bomb disposal and, given her size, highly adept at physical combat have helped her to gain a secure position among the local police department's top ranks. Along with Chris, she survives the horrors of the Spencer Estate then plans to meet up with him in order to take down a newly discovered Umbrella base after she finishes gathering data on a nearby Umbrella facility in Raccoon City. She is unfortunate enough to be stuck in Raccoon City as the T-virus is spread throughout the town. She plans her last escape then journeys out into the streets only to face a new enemy, a pursuer sent by Umbrella that will not stop until it has hunted down the last of the remaining S.T.A.R.S. team. She watches in horror as her fellow comrade, Brad Vickers, that helped her escape the Spencer Mansion, is assassinated by this monster, this Nemesis, right in front of her eyes. While escaping from the endless pursuit of this new threat, Jill stumbles across Carlos, a member of the U.B.C.S. (Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service) and decides to join up with him and his remaining team. She eventually fights off her pursuer in a heated battle where she delivers S.T.A.R.S. unto him shortly before reaching a rescue helicopter that flies her and Carlos out of Raccoon City shortly before the sterilizing missile hits the city and wipes it from the face of the Earth. (still need to add Jill's RE5 info) In RE5 Mercs, Jill didn't really have a very powerful weapon with either her Battle Suit or BSAA variety. In Mercs 3D, Jill gets her own shotgun. She used the SG 556 machine gun, which has slightly more power than her past machine guns from RE5 Mercs. Jill still retains her double knee drop ground melee that can easily kill a weaker enemy. --------------- Character Stats --------------- Damage Rate Recovery Amount Default 110% 330 Casual 120% 390 Taunting time: 2.3 seconds ----------------- Default Inventory ----------------- Machine Gun / SG 556 (45/45) Knife Shotgun / M3 (5/5) Green Herb(s) = 1 --------------- Default Weapons --------------- -- SG 556 Weapon type: Machine Gun Ammo: 45/45 Max number of load: 90 Damage: 180 Reload speed: 2.55 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% The SG (SIG) 556 is the middle grade machine gun in Mercs 3D. It does decent damage per shot fired, has a good amount of ammo that can be loaded into the gun at a time and has less recoil than the AK. The SG 556 has nothing special about it other than it is the middle grade machine gun though. It has no piercing like the MP5 and doesn't take off heavy damage per shot like the AK. It can be a good weapon to set up melee kills against weaker enemies instead of using the AK, but against stronger enemies, the AK is a better choice. -- Knife Weapon type: Knife (melee weapon) Ammo: n/a Max number of load: n/a Damage: 190 Reload speed: n/a Critical percentage: 0% Special Properities: Counts a melee (+5 seconds per finishing knife slash) Jill's knife takes off 190 damage per slash and will count as a melee kill if a an enemy is finished off with a knife slash. With its low damage, this knife is only really good against weaker enemies. Jill, herself, gets the most use out of her knife. She will poke forward with quick stabs that hit an enemy quickly compared to other characters' wide range slices. NOTE: The knife is best used while moving. Move while aiming and slash at enemies to kill them off quickly. -- M3 Weapon type: Shotgun Ammo: 5/5 Max number of load: 10 Damage: 500 x 7 Reload speed: 3.00 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% The M3 shotgun has a slightly higher firepower per pellet when compared to the M37 shotgun. The slight upgrade in pellet power makes it take off quite a bit more if the full pellet spreads hits though. The M37 takes off 2800 damage with a full spread and M3 takes off 3500 damage with a full spread, so this shotgun can take more damage from bigger enemies such as an Executioner or Super Salvador when shot from close range. Just like the M37, the M3 is only really effective against bigger enemies from close range. ------ Melees ------ -- High Kick Melee type: Head stun melee Hit range: Damage: 350 Jill performs an upward kick to the enemy's face. -- Rising Kick Melee type: Leg stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 350 Jill leans down and perform an upward kick. -- Head Grab Melee type: Leg stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: Instant kill Special Effect: Cancels plagas Jill leaps onto the enemy's head by latching her knees around its head then quickly twist their neck before dive rolling off. -- Roundhouse Melee type: Arm stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 250 Jill performs a roundhouse kick. -- Reverse Roundhouse Melee type: Arm stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 350 Jill performs a spinning roundhouse kick. -- Double Knee Drop Melee type: Ground melee Hit range: Damage: 1200 Jill leaps into the air and falls on the enemy with both of her knees then backflips away. -- Flip Kick Melee type: Deathblow melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 2000 Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn Jill leaps forward and hits the enemy with two kicks while rising and somersaulting away. She lands and crouches then poses. -- Cartwheel Kick Melee type: Deathblow melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 2000 Special Effect: Cancels plagas spawn Jill performs a carwheel and kicks the enemy twice then lands and crouches and poses.

Bravo Team | | Rear Security/Medic | | | | Gender: Female | | Age: 18 | | Blood: AB | | Height: 5'3 | | Weight: 93 lbs | \-------------------------------------/ As the team medic, this S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team rookie was involved in the outbreak that occurred aboard the Ecliptic Express. Although her lack of experience can cause her to hesitate in certain situations she remains calm in the face of danger. She has a tendency to act overconfident and act as if she does not need anyone's help even when she is fully aware that she does. She first meets Billy Coen while on board the Ecliptic Express and tries to shrug him off as a criminal that is simply using the outbreak as a means to reach freedom. After the two work together and Billy begins to help her out, Rebecca begins to respect Billy and believe that he has been wrongfully convicted. The two characters survive the Training Facility nightmare together and Rebecca allows Billy to walk away from the incident claiming that he officially died in the train wreck. The two go their separate ways and Rebecca heads for the Spencer Estate to rejoin Bravo Team. Though Rebecca has been robbed of her flamespray head stun melee from RE5 Mercs Reunion, she has one of the best weapon setups in Mercs 3D. Her melees lack power, but they can be used effectively with enough damage before each melee setup. --------------- Character Stats --------------- Damage Rate Recovery Amount Default 130% 450 Nurse 150% 600 Taunting time: 2.6 seconds ----------------- Default Inventory ----------------- Machine Gun / MP5 (60/60) Grenade Launcher Launcher - Explosive Rounds (4/4) Green Herb(s) = 5 --------------- Default Weapons --------------- -- MP5 Weapon type: Machine Gun Ammo: 60/60 Max number of load: 120 Damage: 120 Reload speed: 2.40 seconds Critical percentage: 20% Special Properties: Piercing The MP5 is the weakest machine gun in Mercs 3D, but it is the only machine gun with piercing and it has the least amount of recoil when shooting. The MP5 is quite accurate for a machine gun, so when spamming an enemy with rapid fire, it's much easier to focus on a certain point of their body. Since the MP5 is so weak, it's a good idea to equip a skill that will boost your character's melee attack power or a skill that will boost the attack power of the MP5. The gun really needs some type of support to make it effective. -- Grenade Launcher Weapon type: Grenade Launcher Ammo: 4/4 Max number of load: 6 Damage: 1500 Reload speed: 3.33 seconds Critical percentage: 0% The grenade launcher with explosive rounds is easily one of the best boss killing weapons in the game. Each explosive round will take off 1500 damage per direct hit and it will often stun a boss. Not only is this a good weapon to spam a boss with for damage, but it will also help a player to keep the combo while fighting a boss. Since each shot will make an explosion, nearby enemies will be killed off and this will help a player keep the combo with little effort while damaging a boss. Explosive rounds can stun just about any boss! Garradors can be knocked over with a direct hit - a player can actually activate both stun animations on a Garrador with explosive rounds (kneel over and fall). Executioners, Super Salvadors, and Chainsaw Majini will all be stunned with a direct hit. Gatling Gun Majini are also extremely weak against explosive rounds - it will only take about 4 explosive rounds to finish them off! NOTE 1: Explosive rounds can be shot toward the ground in front of your character to make your character perform a flinching pose where they will throw up their arms to shield their body. This pose will make the character invincible to any attack while the flinching pose is activated. NOTE 2: Once again, Gatling Gun Majini are extremely weak against explosive rounds. A player can easily spam a Gatling Gun Majini with explosive rounds and kill it within 3-4 direct shots. ------ Melees ------ -- Push Out Melee type: Head stun melee Hit range: Damage: 400 Rebecca moves forward and pushes the enemy to the ground. -- Jump Punch Melee type: Leg stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 350 Rebecca hops into the air then punches the enemy straight down to the ground. -- Head Cracker Melee type: Leg stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 450 Special Effect: 50% Critical rate, Cancels plagas spawn (if enemy is killed) Rebecca gets behind the enemy then knees the enemy in the back of the head. -- Tear Gas Melee type: Arm stun melee (front) Hit range: Damage: 200 Rebecca takes out a bottle of tear gas and sprays the enemy in the face. -- Rump Shaker Melee type: Arm stun melee (back) Hit range: Damage: 300 Rebecca lunges forward and strikes the enemy with her rump. -- Kick Melee type: Ground melee Hit range: Damage: 500 Special Effect: Critical if aimed for the head.

[MC09] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= E X T R A W E A P O N S E T =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ------- Weapons ------- -- Red 9 Weapon type: Handgun Ammo: 3/9 Max number of load: 6 Damage: 800 Reload speed: 2.37 seconds Critical percentage: 12.5% The Red 9 is the most damaging weapon in the game that can set up melee kills. At first glance, this handgun looks too damaging to be effective. The Red 9 actually isn't that useful weaker enemies such as Town Majini and most Base Majini, but it is highly effective for setting up melee kills with Zealots however! When this gun is paired up with a skill that can boost melee attacks, it can help a player make quick work of Zealot enemies. Since the Red 9 can only hold 3 bullets at a time, it will have to be reloaded constantly. It's need of constant reloading makes it useless without a skill that will allow a player to perform a quick reload (Old School, Revenge, etc.). Always make sure to use a skill that will allow your character to reload during animations while using this weapon. -- Grenade Launcher Weapon type: 2-Way Grenade Launcher Ammo: 4/10 Max number of load: 6 Damage: 1500 x 2 Reload speed: 3.33 seconds Critical percentage: 0% What is better than a grenade launcher that can fire explosive rounds? A grenade launcher that can fire two explosive rounds at a time! Since this 2- way grenade launcher will fire two explosive rounds with each shot, it can take off 3000 damage if both explosive rounds hit an enemy. One of the best parts about this grenade launcher is that each shot will only take 1 ammo from the gun, so each time your character shoots both explosive rounds per shot, only 1round will be taken away from the gun.
