1. Introduction and Version History
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This isn't a full walkthrough for Resident Evil Zero (known as
Biohazard 0 in Japan). Rather, it is only a Boss FAQ. This FAQ is
filled with detailed strategies for beating the various bosses found in
Resident Evil Zero. If you need walkthrough help, please seek out one
of the various detailed walkthroughs available on the internet such as
on GameFAQs.com. I have also written a complete FAQ/Walkthrough for
Resident Evil Zero (and other Resident Evil games), which can be found
on the aforementioned website.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Boss #1: Giant Scorpian
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss #1: Stinger (Giant Scorpion)
Character: Billy or Rebecca
Difficulty: Moderate
Location: Train Bar
This is the first boss fight of the game, and it's quite basic in
its execution. You are cornered by the Stinger, so run up to the back
wall with the door and begin shooting with the HUNTING GUN. Use up any
all SHOTGUN AMMO you may have against the creature before switching to
the HANDGUN and continuing from there. The Stinger is not a difficult
boss, but it does cause a lot of damage and is a bit difficult to
avoid. Having at least one full-powered recovery item and enough
ammo will ensure a victory through attrition. Basically, keep shooting
and healing and eventually, the Stinger will die. When the Stinger
spasms towards death, try to stay away from it as it will lunch its
pincers for one final counterattack, which is highly damaging. If you
happen to be playing as Rebecca, be careful as this can possibly get
her killed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Boss #2: Centurion
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss #2: Centurion
Character: Billy
Difficulty: Easy
Location: Animal Storeroom
Rebecca will be held by this creature, so she won't be able to help out
in this boss fight. That said, the room is big enough and Billy should
have enough powerful weapons that this boss fight should be rather
simple. Arm Billy with the HUNTING GUN, get somewhat, but not too far
away from the creature, and then begin shooting it. It's easy to run
away if the Giant Centipede tries to get close to Billy. Be careful, as
the boss gradually deals damage to Rebecca, which could eventually kill
her, so do not take too long or try to leave the room. After perhaps 15
to 20 SHOTGUN SHELLS, or twice the amount of regular HANDGUN BULLETS,
the Giant Centipede should die, and Rebecca will be freed. If you have
the GRENADE LAUNCHER with you already, then the fight will be over
even quicker.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Boss #3: Giant Bat
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss #3: Giant Bat
Character: Billy
Difficulty: Medium
Location: The Church
It is preferred you have Billy fight the battle. He has more stamina,
and can aim a gun more accurately than his female counterpart. Equip
a powerful gun, such as the SHOTGUN, aim upward and then shoot the
Giant Bat. The SHOTGUN'S widespread ammo offer a greater chance of
actually hitting the giant bat and the smaller bats flying around the
room. The frustrating part of this battle is that when aiming, you must
be quick to shoot, or else Billy has a chance of missing and thus
wasting ammo. Also, this boss fight is a bit frustrating because the
Giant Bat is hard to see with the pre-rendered camera angles (beauty has
its consequences). Try to stay in one place, such as near where the
altar is, where you can hopefully see the bat, and then shoot it as it
flies into view. The GRENADE LAUNCHER is also a powerful weapon for
this fight, but the range and speed of the weapon are not ideal for
this boss, although the GRENADE LAUNCHER does deal a great amount of
damage to the Giant Bat if you can actually hit it. Very often the bat
will swoop down and hit Billy (or Rebecca). These hits are actually
powerful, so ensure that whomever you are controlling has a decent
amount of recovery items, particularly Rebecca.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Boss #4: Proto-Tyrant
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss #4: Proto-Tyrant
Character: Rebecca
Difficulty: Medium
Location: Birkin Laboratory
Rebecca's alone and without Billy's assistance, but as long as she has
the MAGNUM, which she should have found in the cable car, she can take
this boss out with few issues. Have Rebecca shoot the Proto-Tyrant
after it introduces itself, but keep her far away from it in any
direction. Watch out for its swiping attacks, which can be fatal if the
Pro. Rebecca might run out of MAGNUM ammo if her shots are not direct
enough, but a weapon as weak as the Handgun or SHOTGUN can definitely
finish the job. However, the GRENADE LAUNCHER with ACID ROUNDS is
recommended as a backup as Tyrants, true to series forum, always fall
to ACID ROUNDS faster than other weapons. Just keep Rebecca away from
the Proto-Tyrant, shoot it with powerful ammunition, and you should be
fine. The Proto-Tyrant will collapse to the ground once it has been
defeated.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Boss #5: Proto Tyrant (2)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss #5: Proto-Tyrant
Character: Rebecca, Billy
Difficulty: Easy
Location: Lower Boiler Room (Second)
This is the first time in the game both characters are able to battle
a boss at the same time. The Proto-Tyrant is back for a rematch, but
with twice the characters and weaponry, this battle should be a breeze.
The room is quite narrow, so once the boss fight begins, run away from
the Proto-Tyrant, turn around and then shoot it as it approaches. That
is all there is to this battle, actually, being a repeat battle of
sorts. As long as you possess powerful ammo and have both characters
attack, the Proto-Tyrant does not stand a chance. Be sure to avoid
its claw-based swipe attacks, which do plenty of damage, especially to
Rebecca. As with the previous battle, once the Proto-Tyrant collapses
to the ground, the battle is over.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Boss #6: Queen Leech
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss #6: Queen Leech, Part One
Character: Rebecca, Billy
Difficulty: Medium
Location: Battle Room
This boss is not very difficult, thanks to the presence of both
Rebecca and Billy and the ability to use the generous amount of space
in the room to avoid being directly attacked by the Queen Leech. The
boss spews acid with reasonable trajectory and distance, but these
attacks are nothing a simple GREEN HERB cannot heal. The powerful
weapons will deal tremendous damage onto the Queen Leech, which will
be somewhat slow to respond. Try not to let it get too close to either
Rebecca or Billy, as if it does, the damage can be fatal. Overall,
this is a relatively straightforward battle that requires little
strategy other than shoot and dodge.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
8. Boss #7: Marcus Queen (2)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss #7: Queen Leech, Part Two
Character: Rebecca, Billy
Difficulty: Easy
Location: Final Battle Room
This is less of a boss battle and more of a gun shooting festival.
Just spend a minute or two unloading any ammo you might have on the
evolved Queen Leech. Have Rebecca expend the MAGNUM's ammo because she
will not be needing a weapon after this battle. Other popular
candidates for this battle are the SHOTGUN and GRENADE LAUNCHER because
they deal plenty of damage and allow for the fight to end faster.
This boss is not difficult at all, but you should stay clear of its
tackle and acid-spewing attacks.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
9. Boss #8: Marcus Queen (3)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss #8: Queen Leech, Part Three
Character: Billy
Difficulty: Medium-Hard
Location: Final Battle Room
---------------
The First Valve
---------------
Rebecca will not be fighting in this boss fight, so it is all up to
Billy. Note that this boss fight differs from virtually every other
boss fight in the series in that the enemy cannot be killed with pure
strength alone. All that can be done to stop the enemy is to distract
it by attacking it constantly and keeping it away from Rebecca. Run
down from where Rebecca is and unleash the power of any weapon Billy
might have (preferably the MAGNUM or SHOTGUN). Keep shooting so the
Leech Queen becomes distracted, giving Rebecca the proper space to turn
the valve. The Queen Leech will likely land a hit on Billy, so if that
happens, button-mash the GameCube controller, Classic Controller or Wii
Remote so he gets back up quickly. Keep shooting, and Rebecca should
eventually finish turning the valve.
----------------
The Second Valve
----------------
Now, run to the left slightly and start shooting the Queen Leech again.
Rebecca will run for the next valve, which will be whatever is out of
range of the Queen Leech. Billy might already have run out of bullets
for his most powerful weapon, but if he has the Custom Handgun, it
will do the job in keeping the Queen Leech away from Rebecca. Do not
worry about wasting bullets during this boss right. Just continue
shooting the boss. If you distract the Queen Leech long enough, Rebecca
should finish with the second valve. She will then automatically move on
to the third one, which may be next to a set of stairs.
---------------
The Third Valve
---------------
Rebecca will probably climb up a set of steps, but even if she does
not, it will not matter or change the result of the game. As Billy,
continue the onslaught on the Queen Leech, avoiding its direct path and
continuing to protect Rebecca. Billy might be out of ammo by now, but if
he is not, then just keep using whatever ammo he holds. If the Queen
Leech gets too close to Rebecca, get close to the Queen Leech and fire at
it with a long range weapon to distract the boss and hopefully get it to
go after Billy instead. Rebecca should finish this third valve after a
few moments.
----------------
The Fourth Valve
----------------
By now, your onslaught should slow the Queen Leech down somewhat, but
if you still have ammunition left over, do not stop shooting. If
Rebecca has a weapon in her inventory, take it from her now and
continue shooting. Eventually, the boss battle will finally end when
Rebecca completes turning the final valve.
