Uroboros Mkono
- Chapter
- 5-2 · Power Station and Missile Area
- Where
- Uroboros Research Facility: the test chamber with the chair. In the corridor before it, **5 Flame Rounds** and **1 Incendiary Grenade**. In the room, 3 Incendiary Grenades (1 on the monitor table left of the chair, 2 left of the ammo shelf), 3 gas canisters, 2 First Aid Sprays, ammo and the rechargeable **Flamethrower** on the east wall.
Weak point
Fire: only when burned does it sprout 3 tentacles with orb tips from its back, its only weak spots. A direct Rocket Launcher hit kills it in one shot, even on Professional.
A test subject who seemed compatible with Uroboros and then went berserk: much bigger and more aggressive than the first one, with two cores. Gunfire alone can't kill it. Burn it and, when the orbs come out, shoot them with your strongest gun before it pulls them back.
Fire sources: Flame Rounds, Incendiary Grenades, the canisters (knock one over, let it absorb it, then shoot) and the Flamethrower, which can be lifted when all 5 charger lights are green and must go back on the wall to refuel. Sources disagree on what works best: use the grenades and fire rounds first and treat the Flamethrower as a free refill.
Reward
Nothing. Anything you leave in this room is gone when 5-3 starts.
Attacks: long whip arm (20–30 ft, dodge prompt), a left arm that detaches and crawls toward you (damage plus leeches; dodge prompt), a sideways swipe (knockdown) and a grab that covers you in leeches (works even with no arms). Its right-arm swing does 100.
Solo, give the Flamethrower to AI Sheva and shoot the orbs yourself.
Step by step
- Before opening the door, collect the 5 Flame Rounds and the Incendiary Grenade in the corridor.
- Dodge and loot the room while the Flamethrower charges.
- Both players shoot off its limbs until one is left. One takes the Flamethrower; the other shoots off the last limb so it can't hit the flamer.
- Burn it nonstop. When the orbs appear, the other player shoots them with a shotgun, magnum or rifle.
- Put the Flamethrower back on the wall to refuel; the arms grow back. Repeat. IGN: with good aim you won't need more than one refuel.
- Shortcut: one direct Rocket Launcher hit. It costs ₦10,000 in the shop, or farm the free one from the 3-1 boat: pick it up, save and quit, store it, and repeat.
