    As the attentive, tom13king, pointed out, I made a typo in my 4am calculations and ended up leaving it in the script.
    The first Garrador's body health value is actually 240, giving the plaga a multiplier of 16.
    The 2nd and 3rd Garradores therefore have health values of 288.
    This is why sleep is important. xD
    In any case, it's not the end of the world. Who is going to be shooting a Garrador in the legs to kill it anyway?

    8:33 that literally was PERFECT timing lol that shield ganado was eyeing Krausers booty to ram his spikes into a bit a second more to spare!!!!! Honestly I don’t play a ton of games and am super new to resident evil and the games and all that… I know.. I’m a decade late… but oh well lol I was disappointed for see how little videos there really are about the mercenaries! I think it’s such a fun and extremely difficult task for a new player w little experience w the games. I mean of course I played it after the game, assignment ada and separate ways … which were much more difficult for me which I loved…. But mercenaries for a new person who doesn’t understand the mechanics and really how to use the boxes and timers and stuff if was so confusing at first until I figured some more out and started not dying lol now working on higher scores…. But my very long winded point is that I’m gonna subscribe just for all the effort on this video and the last couple I watched ….bc there’s a lot of TLC into these videos that take so much work… super impressed my dude

    One interesting topic you could tackle the next time is if there's a damage multiplier for body shots (head, arms, legs, etc) like in RE5, or if every shot always deals the same damage no matter where it lands.

    • @Sarcosuchas
      @Sarcosuchas  Рік тому +15

      For RE4, headshots deal more damage (along with having the critical chance) while the rest of the body is the same, regardless of arms, legs or torso.
      Boss enemies do not have the headshot bonus in Mercenaries, as that was something I did check for when making this video.

    I think I've posted a reply here about a week ago but it's gone, not sure what happened. Every enemy in the game has a more accurate HP value. Some trainer features can directly show enemy HP, such as the trainer in RE4 Tweaks. Using firepower to measure HP is a good way, very easy to understand, but the values you gave are only roughly correct, not accurate. It's still enough for most players though.
    To be exact, for example in Mercs each Bella has 6500 HP, and their damage taken per hit is capped at 1000 (6.67 firepower). They take 150 damage from every point of firepower, just like the villager ganados. TMP does 0.7x damage to Bellas and 1.4x damage to villagers so better don't use TMP to measure enemy HP. Most enemies take 1.2x damage with headshots, and 10x if it was a crit hit (if it was a rifle headshot then 5x). I think I posted a link of an in-depth RE4 mechanics guide here, that probably is why it god deleted?

    • @Sarcosuchas
      @Sarcosuchas  6 місяців тому

      Yes, UA-cam probably deleted it due to sharing the link.

    Interesting video! Thank you for the analysis! What's the damage output on frag/ fire/ flash(?) grenades? If Flash grenades do 0 damage, how is it they take out birds?

    • @Sarcosuchas
      @Sarcosuchas  Рік тому +1

      For birds and plagas, flash grenades have a unique critical hit rate property of 100%.
      Frag grenades deal approximately 10 damage (to Ganado enemies) while fire grenades deal 6.6 damage in total, however they deal 3.4 damage initially, and then the burning animation is the other 3.2.
      This is why ganados on the ground often die instantly from a fire grenade, as they receive the full 6.6 damage instantly.

      Having seen that as potentially confusing for people (suddenly changing all the damage values) I reverted back to the format that we see here.
