Chunk (Thomas)
- Chapter
- 3 · Care Center: Main Building
- Where
- Care Center, East Wing 2F: he appears in the Locker Room doorway to the East Stairway as you approach the corpse with the ID Wristband (Level 1), then chases you through the wing's corridors; after that he patrols the long East Wing 1F corridor between the Examination Room, the Blood Lab and the Waiting Room.
Weak point
His back (Hemolytic Injector) and his head (Requiem).
Thomas K. Jackson, one of the two Chunk brothers: surgery to suppress his appetite went wrong and now he eats metal and electronics. He's slow, doesn't dodge, charges in a straight line and fills the whole corridor; he gets stuck in narrow doorframes and squashes any zombie in his path. He's optional, but he's the only Chunk Grace can kill: the Grace and Goliath trophy (1,000 CP).
On Standard it takes 3 attacks: Hemolytic Injectors from behind, Requiem rounds or any mix of the two.
Reward
Eye Spy Charm (in your inventory, a better chance to survive fatal damage; IGN adds an easier escape from grabs without a bite) and Grace and Goliath (1,000 CP). On later runs, if you already own the charm, he drops 4 Antique Coins.
No published HP, and no figures for Standard (Classic) or Insanity. The wiki describes a no-ammo trick: lure the Zombie Blind Patient (the one with the IV stand) to him, since a couple of its swings kill him (unconfirmed). If you miss the trophy, the fallback is an Insanity run with infinite ammo (PowerPyx).
Step by step
- Prepare 3 attacks before approaching the corpse: 3 Hemolytic Injectors (3 Scrap + 180 blood; with 100 capacity, craft them one at a time) or 2 injectors + 1 Requiem round.
- Wait in the doorway of the Examination Room or the Waiting Room until he shuffles past.
- Sneak out crouched behind him and stab the injector (ZR) into his back.
- Duck back into the room, wait for his pattern to reset and repeat, up to 3 times.
- With the Requiem: shoot his head from the Level 2 corridor to the Isolation Ward, where he can't follow. Count on 3 hits on Standard (the wiki says 2, without naming a difficulty).
- Bait: one of the light-switch zombies walks into his path and keeps him busy (IGN).
- On Casual: 1 Requiem headshot + 15-16 S&S M232 headshots, best from a doorway.
- He dies by shrivelling up and exploding: pick up the Eye Spy Charm.
- Last chance: he despawns after Victor's cutscene in the Lead Researcher's Office and returns after you use the ID Wristband (Level 3) on Emily's cell. If you don't kill him then, the trophy is gone for that playthrough.
