Armored Lycan
- Type
- Lycans
- Chapters
- The ch. 2 ambush, the village's Old Man's Front Yard (ch. 5), the Underground Cavern of Moreau's Reservoir (ch. 8), the Stronghold Main Hall (ch. 10) and Chris's mission (ch. 12). Village of Shadows adds more in the village: East Old Town Farmer's House, the Lone Road and the Fallow Plot.
Weak point
Explosives and the shotgun to knock the helmet off; then the head (×3.0; shotgun ×3.75). The legs take ×2.0 (shotgun ×2.5); torso and arms, ×1.0.
Tactic
A big Lycan in a helmet and armour, far tougher, that charges head-on. Take the helmet off first: a Pipe Bomb, a Mine or a Hand Grenade (Chris) strips it in one go, and the shotgun works too. With the head bare, shoot it in the face. If it closes in, back away laying Mines. In the Underground Cavern it comes with other Lycans: a Pipe Bomb or an Explosive Round on the group, and if it goes wrong, climb the ladder.
Drops
Perfect Crystal Skull (10,000).
4,000 HP for most. Exceptions in the data read from the game: 700 HP for the ch. 2 ambush one and the first one in the Stronghold; 3,000 for the one before Chris enters the village centre; 5,000 for "the two before the red-chimney house" (location not identified). Evil Resource calls it Lycan (large).
