Resident Evil 3 - The Easy way to Kill Nemesis Stage 3 (Nightmare/Inferno Difficulty)

[@TheRealFalsity]

One of the most poorly designed final bosses ever. There's difficult, and then there's just bullshit.

[@HOGuru]

Yeah, it's crazy how it goes from a complete joke on the first three difficulties to an endless nightmare on the highest.

@@Mrs_Puffington not really. You still have to be a hyper expert at dodging to get near to beating this on anything past hard mode.

[@flynnflannigan1302]

I know right it's so poorly designed this isn't difficult it's just bad game design at this point like you literally try as hard you can to dodge he hits you no matter when I've had several times where i got to the last power cell then he hits me three times really fast and it's unavoidable I've tried he hits you once then two more times real quick there is no time to dodge it's like why would anyone make that this way

I deleted the game because in the thing I was in the time of only one hour in and the final nemesis fight

[@robbhebert3288]

Honestly, the boss is just pure shit on nightmare and Inferno. He should NOT be able to stun lock you. He needs to be patched.

[@NeoLotex]

Funnily enough I didn't have any problems with this boss until Inferno, even Nightmare wasn't bad for me. What really breaks the whole thing though is the fact that you have no chance of saving yourself if he gets you even once with his combo and he can do up to like 7 or 8 hits in a row, so even i you perfectly dodge his initial 3 hits he can still off you just like that. If you could at least it would be a different thing, albeit still some tough shit, but without even the chance of doing anything ... Yeah, no.

[@robbhebert3288]

Lotex I beat him finally. I bought the two defense coins and the stars book that make quick dodge easier. I got the S rank, so that’s all I care about. I farmed challenges to get those bonuses, so I feel no guilt lol.

[@mosesblackhero3004]

The Stunlock-problem appears in RE2 sometimes too.

[@Sifer2]

@@mosesblackhero3004 I only ever remember that happening if Mr. X was hitting you into zombies/lickers. And Birkin 2 was sometimes dumb doing combo's in a 5 foot wide platform to fight him on. But there was nothing like final Nemesis and his hit you once now your dead crap.

[@Djentlman7]

Exactly. All it it is his smash attack three times in two seconds and you cannot dodge it because you are stunned, and then you die

[@runninwithscizzors2472]

I kinda hate the difficulty jump between hardcore To nightmare for this boss specifically it goes from a complete cake walk to borderline impossible because once he hits you once your stun locked till death

[@HOGuru]

It's such a shock because FInal Nemesis is a complete joke on the first three difficulty levels and then suddenly he's the worst thing in the game. The triple smash is the only thing that stun-locks you, though, so as long as you stay close it's manageable.

[@Sh4dowBlazerl]

@@HOGuru So, if i am close i won't get stun locked? alright.

[@mendy1787]

@@HOGuru how do i avoid the stunlock???? can i do it by getting close?

[@HOGuru]

@@mendy1787 When you get close, he'll generally just use the sweep, the push, and the rake - he'll occasionally do the triple strike, but not often.

[@blues3531]

@@HOGuru Not just the triple smash. If he hits you with any overhead smash he follows up with a rapid second overhead when you're down. The only thing you can survive is the slow side to side sweep. So having healing items makes no difference. You basically have to master perfect dodging him, which I can't time it for shit. It's really easy with zombies and hunters/lickers etc. Even Nemesis' dog form. But this last form trying to perfect time his smashes, I just haven't figured out the timing yet, after like 20 tries lol.

[@justinriley4063]

I can't believe how easy this game is just for this huge BS fight to make up the majority of my time.

[@phud69]

Its good that deaths dont really impact final scores, at first I was scared I wasnt going to get S rank on nightmare because I made an inhuman amount of mistakes and died 12 times. I completely agree though, nemesis 3 on nightmare is a HUGE jump in diffculty from hardcore. It would be good for inferno, and I think nightmare should just introduce the new attack combos.

Same here, by the end I had like 52 deaths on inferno all from the final fight alone.

[@HOGuru]

It can be done without the rocket launcher - as long as you can dodge the first of the three hits, you can survive the second two. Then, if you stay close to him, he'll only do the sweeps, plow, reverse plow, and drum roll - all of which can be avoided without too much effort (if you have the dodge book in your inventory). Just spam grenade launcher shots and throw grenades if you run out of GL rounds. It's doable, but it's going to suck. Oh, if you get really good at dodging, you can use the electric gun - it one-shot bursts his pustules, and if you pull off a perfect dodge it will auto-aim at one of them, so just keep doding and shooting one each time, and you'll wear him down fairly quickly.

[@Umbrella4117]

@@HOGuru Its the dodge that i have hard time with even with the training book. Either to early or too late.

Using both recovery coins the entire game will allow you to not need any healing throughout the game except for emergency situations.

[@Lucius899]

I have a guide for you from my observations. Basics: weapon - multiple-shot pistol or magnum, dodge or shoot only when the time is right, shoot after focusing after successfully dodging (perfect dodge), keep your distance to maximum, stand on the side where you want to push the battery, move sideways left or right (near the side of room where you have the current battery to move) while dodging, watch out for acid and scream o nemezis. Attacks of nemesis and their sequences and how you should react: 1) vertical strong attack from above - dodge and shot x1 or 2 at sensitive points 2) vertical series of blows to the ground into your direction - dodge at the last blow and shoot x1 or 2 times 3) vertical series from above with his single hands, dangerous, can stun you: attack from his left hand (nemesis's left hand, from his side), then goes right (slower) and goes right again (faster) - dodge with each attack in the series and shoot only after the last x1 or 2 times 4) vertical series from above with his single hands, dangerous, can stun you: attacks from his right hand (when hand is raised characteristically above the ground) are quick blows with his right hand (various amount, even about 6-8) ending with a short break (wait with dodge, he does it on purpose) and after it there is the final blow - dodge with each blow, and only after the last one shoot x1 or x2 times. 5) horizontal blow: starts from the side where you stand, nemesis sweeps each side with his hand about 3 times - dodge with each blow (which is on your side), and shoot x1 or x2 times only after the first one coming on your side, then only dodge the next, because after the last horizontal blow he attacks quickly vertically, there is no point in shooting, he will catch you and stun you to death 6) scream that stuns our character: distance yourself as far as possible from nemesis, and when you are stunned, try to move the character sideways with a pad or keys (then it ends faster) and immediately dodge because nemezis fast attacks vertically with 3) or 4) after scream. You can try to avoid stunning by dodging In the same time as nemezis screams - but it is dangerous. Often nemesis works like this: 5) and next is 3) or 5) and next is 4). Keep doing this until you shoot all his weak points and push the batteries, and when the power returns, run quickly to rail gun and watch out for the blows behind you (you may need to dodge some). You have to practice it. Good luck.

[@MessrDookie101]

Another layer to this: Hit the last pustule while standing next to the first power source on the right side. Instantly start pushing it before he goes down. Then run to the other one nearby. You'll know you were fast enough if Jill starts talking halfway through pushing the second one. Nemesis will go for the grab and miss you running away, giving you the time needed to hit all the pustules. Then push in the other one to win.

For anyone struggling. You need to spam left/right/buttons when knocked down to stand back up quickly and heal before another hit

[@ninja.saywhat]

that's only works for the nemmy's left hand and with the right hand when it is comboing, the 5th hit and beyond. if you get hit with the 1st 4 hits, you're not getting up from that.

[@un4givenmii]

I have just done it. the best way is to know the moves he will do when you are standing in a place each round when you push a pod in run to the same place every time.take it round by round master each one as it stays the same if you move and do the same each time. do not go in rockets blazing and wait for his atacks then get a shot of in the gaps.

[@HOGuru]

Nice work!

[@lordmasterstrader8296]

Nightmare is the only time I have died fighting any form of nemesis, the last form being the one. Just ridiculous. Inferno is gonna be even dumber but I will try this method

[@LuisGarcia-es1hx]

Thanks dude! What tip really helped me was staying close to him actually made dodging easier.

[@HOGuru]

Yup! Then he's more likely to do the close sweep move rather than the multi-slam!

[@hazchem1]

Works 100%. Life Saver. Also, for those wanting a quick infinite Rocket Launcher. Play on Assisted and save your game in the Hospital Treatment room before you defend Jill. You'll pick up around 70-80 Zombie kills with accurate fire and then just die and restart from your save. It should take about 2 hours to get over 2000 kills. If you get bored you can always play on and keep your save spot to back to it again. I got S Rank on Assisted and over 2000 kills in under 4 hours and got my Rocket Launcher!

[@HOGuru]

Oh, and save just before doing the warehouse section - there's like 6 super-zombies in that area, so you can just keep redoing it to get those points!

[@miyazakisimping]

Thank you so much. Your strategy saved me so much time and frustration!

[@HOGuru]

Glad I could help!

[@WillFeral420]

Imagine finally beating Nemesis after trying for hours on end and think you've finally beaten the game on Inferno difficulty and in the final sequence where you have to shoot Nikolai, your girlfriend walks past the TV to get to her phone and you end up missing the shot and having to spend another hour trying to beat Nemesis again :(

[@demetriusean]

Damn that's a big oof my guy

[@HOGuru]

Yikes!

[@doudoune8035]

YES!! Thank you VERY MUCH sir! That boss was a rock in my shoe and was keeping me from getting all achievements, but thanks to your technique, I got it!!

[@HOGuru]

Congratulations!

[@chasebridgeman6208]

Dude thank you so much! On my nightmare and inferno playthroughs, with that rocket launcher I had absolutely no issues... except this boss. I wanted that S rank on Inferno and I was not about to let this dumb boss take the last 50 minutes I had to spare, thank you for the great tip!

[@HOGuru]

Glad I could help!

[@ATONED_4]

Thanks soooo much, this was impossible for me until I just watched this strat, in about 10 mins. of trying, I beat Nightmare mode...cheers mate

[@HOGuru]

Glad I could help!

[@Crichjo32]

Final nemesis goes from complete joke to one of the hardest bosses ever on nightmare mode.

[@HOGuru]

Such an insane difficulty spike!

[@Holaaparty]

I believe that there is a sign/hint to dodge in everygame with I-frame machanism. your technique is so helpful thanks for your patient to figure this out.

[@HOGuru]

He's tough to dodge, but this method helps a little!

[@RalvA101]

DUDE THANK YOU SO MUCH. I was getting so frustrated at this cus its complete bullshit with the stunlock thing Nemesis does but this helped so much it only took me like 5 more tries or so 😭

[@HOGuru]

Glad I could help!

[@guy4403]

Thanks for the tips mate, was super struggling until I found your guide. Took at least several attempts but got the plat to pop in the end!!😎👍

[@HOGuru]

Great work!

[@fakakdadadproductions]

Thank you so much! I have been pulling out my hair in Nightmare! Your technique is awesome. I fear I'm going to screw up on Nicholai on Inferno though lol.

[@HOGuru]

You're welcome! Nicholai should not be a problem!

[@MrHamoman]

Thanks so much for this video it really helped. I was stuck on this and your tip really did the trick. Took some time tuning the timing, but it worked. Glad I found you video.

[@HOGuru]

Glad I could help!

[@djukafox]

here is a tip,you can be late but you can't be early. Use a handgun if you don't have magnum ammo.

[@FakeArchon]

Wow man!! I was failing hard to this boss, I was about to quit and give up then I watched your video and beat it first try after that!! I can't believe I did this! your way is so awesome, thanks a lot!!!!!!! time for inferno run I hope I can beat him there too.

[@HOGuru]

In my experience there's no meaningful difference between Nightmare and Inferno, other than him doing more damage. No extra moves, and no speed increase.

[@FakeArchon]

Wanted to let you know that I did it on inferno as well, it was tougher since any hit kills you, I had to buy the 2 defense coins from the shop and using your method again I beat him, thanks again!! liked and subbed :)

[@HOGuru]

@@FakeArchon Glad I could help - and great work!

[@x1alpha6]

Wow.. You're the man! I watch this video while playing and I've finally killed the bastard on my first try of your TECHNIQUE! GREAT TIP! Though, I'm so nervous on the middle sweep attack but I was able to dodge and shot him down.. Very helpful! Thanks man!

[@HOGuru]

Glad I could help!

[@gamersunited8190]

Thanks for the hint! I beat nightmare and inferno tonight (little help from infinite rocket launcher)! I don’t know why it’s said this is the hardest part of game...the beginning when you don’t have your rocket launcher was the ball buster moment of the play throughs!

[@HOGuru]

It's funny, when I went to do my Inferno playthrough I got killed three times by the FIRST zombie in the game - the cop outside the bar. Super-embarrassing. It went relatively smoothly after that, though.

[@thaequalizer3539]

Here's what Capcom needs to do for the next Resident Evil 3 update/patch: when you fight Nemesis Stage 3 on the last two higher difficulties, after you shoot his spores (his weak spots) and he gets stunned, have him be stunned for at least a good 15-20 seconds like in the other difficulties.

[@HOGuru]

That would be huge! Although not that helpful if he can still do 8 slams in a row.

[@thaequalizer3539]

@@HOGuru yeah that too. The slams should definitely be reduced to at least 4 or 5 (hey, it still has to be a challenge. Lol). 8 fist slams in a row by Nemesis is a bit of an overkill, especially considering that the dodging mechanics can be clunky sometimes and that it literally puts you in a dying state very fast.

[@ShawnHSG]

Must have gotten lucky on Nightmare, but this was ridiculous on Inferno. Your strategy worked once I got the hang of it and got faster, thanks!

[@HOGuru]

Great work!

[@phillipflute2368]

You got a new subscriber just because with your technique, I was able to kill him on my 30th attempt. Lol. I had to take a break today, cause I was so damn mad lol. Thank you so very much.

[@HOGuru]

You're welcome!

[@Tombstone23]

Sweet Jesus, thanks for the tips. All I got left is the inferno mode. But fuck me I don't think my heart is ready lol.

[@HOGuru]

It gets rough!

[@Tombstone23]

@@HOGuru Oh yeah, finally managed with a few of your hints and some dumb luck. Prayed after that i hope i get Nicholai on the first shot. Finally got it done.

[@emmy1916]

Thank you for the video. It took me a while but I finally put Nemesis down on Inferno. Need to S rank it for the platinum (saved too much thinking the game would be harder than I expected) but I’m confident I can do that now.

[@HOGuru]

Nice work! Good luck on the S-rank run!

[@emmy1916]

The Hidden Object Guru I got it 😁

[@Israel_hans]

It's the bullshit little hand slaps,I cant get up again in time its death every time

[@HOGuru]

Yeah, they're the worst.

[@kwstasnikolopoulos5477]

OK seriously, does he have an attack pattern? I haven't even knocked him Down once and i swear every time he change things up. Sometimes he does the "drum roll" first, others he doesnt, when he does Sometimes he follows with the sweeps, others with pounds... What the hell

[@thangamminh8765]

He doesnt have a fixed attack pattern, that and the stun roar followed by a super fast smash and the acid is literal hell

[@alexgarner5202]

Well explained thanks, you saved me a headache

[@HOGuru]

Glad it helped!

[@daveweaver3886]

Thanks for the tip man! Thought I'd never beat this being an average player who sucks at dodging. Haha.

[@Deathclaw2277]

Hey, thanks for this. I was stuck for a few days, and having no luck. Then I felt the need to look at strategies of other people who managed to beat him. And your video helped me beat it in one go. This boss has a lot of cheese, so it's only fair we give it back. ;)

[@HOGuru]

Glad it helped! Hope you enjoyed the game!

[@Deathclaw2277]

@@HOGuru I did enjoy it. The game was a blast to play, though I still think Resident Evil 2 (1998 and 2019) is still superior. Maybe they will add some free content like they did with Resident Evil 2?

[@MdMaynard]

Holy Shit!! First try using your technique worked!! THAAAAAAANK YOOOOOOOU!!!!!!!! Absolutely fantastic find, this is so appreciated.

[@HOGuru]

Congrats, and thank you!

[@jacksonjacob7791]

Thanks so much. I used your method and have 2 defensive coins and the rocket launcher with a ton of healing items and this boss is now pretty easy. Wasn't sure I'd be able to beat him but this strategy works! If you don't have enough for the rocket launcher just save before the part where Carlos defends the hoard at the hospital and farm kills.

[@HOGuru]

Glad it worked for you!
