Tomb Raider 7 : Enemies
Enemies listed in order of apperance.
Mercenary 1
This first mercenary appears in Bolivia and is the first opponent you meet. These mercenaries carry SMG's and medi-packs which they sometimes drop.
The only time you will see these outside Bolivia is at the end of the motorcycle sequence in Peru where they will be pushing blocks towards you
from a lorry. Shoot them down and watch them fall.Mercenary 2
The second mercenary also appears in Bolivia and is first met outside the temple. These mercenaries only appear in Bolivia and carry
Assult Rifles and medi-packs which they sometimes drop.Jaguar
The first animal you meet is the Jaguar. It appears in Bolivia and Ghana. It can knock you off your feet so don't let it get too close.Mercenary 3
You fist meet this mercenary at the end of the Bolivia Level. They carry Assult Rifles, Medi Packs and Grenades.
They sometimes throw grenades so watch out. If there are gun enplacements they will use them.
They also appear in Peru, Ghana, Kazakhstan, England, Nepal and Bolivia.ShotGun 1
You meet some Mercenaries with shotgun. You meet the first of these in Peru. The shotgun blasts are dangerous and will sometimes knock you down.
They appear in Ghana as well. Motorbike Mercenary
Your first motorbike fight is in Peru, where you will fight these guys. Just keep shooting and avoid them as you will lose heath if you
hit them. When they die their motorbike's will fly across your path.Shotgun Motorbike Mercenary
Similar to the other Motorbike Mercenaries but carrying shotguns, they do more damage. These also appear in Kazakhstan.Mercenary 4
In Japan you meet these Japanease Mercenaries. Similar to the third type they carry Rifles, Medi Packs and Grenades.
They are more dangerous than usual as they always appear in groups.PitBull
These PitBull's will attack your ankles and usually appear with their owners making them more of a threat. They appear in Japan and England.Shotgun 2&3
The next two enemies you meet wielding shotguns appear in Japan. Similar the first Shotgun Mercneary avoid geting pushed over by them.Takamoto - Boss
Takamoto is the first boss you fight. You start on the floor where there are security guns so do not stay here,
climb up one of the poles behind the statues. On this higher level you will find takamoto. He has three attacks, a low horizontal green bolt,
a high horizontal green bolt and a vertial bolt. The first two can be avoided by ducking behind a statue or ducking/jumping if your timing is good.
He will only use the vetical bolt when you are close to him. There are two strageties for fighting him. Either use the Assult Rifle, stand oppsite him,
take a few shots, then duck behind the statue when he attacks. When he is at 25% health you will run out of ammo so use the pistols instead,
which works even though the target is grayed out. The second method is to use the shotgun. Chase him around, avoiding his fire.
When you are close shoot him with the shot gun. A few rounds will kill him. Background Story.ShotGun 4
Another variation on the origanal shotgun Mercenary appears in Ghana. Kill him the same way as the orignal.Grenade 1
Rutland - Boss
At the end of Ghana you fight Rutland. He is one of the easier boss, but at first you cannot kill him.
Notice that every time his health is low he returns to one of the platforms and has full health again. You must destroy these platforms.
First shoot the small masks which show hazard symbols, once these are destroyed pull out the shiny red block with your grapple. This will destroy the
platform. Once you have done this with all 4 platforms you can kill him. Background Story.Grenade 2
In Kazakhstan you will meet more enemies carrying Grenade Launchers, this time with other Merceneries to back them up.
Just keep away from the grenades, if you move alot they shouldn't hit you. They also appear in Nepal and Bolivia Redux.Motorbike Mercenary 2
You meet the second motorbike mercenary during the Kazakhstan motorcycle sequence. This one is much longer so keep an eye on your health as
you don't want to have to start again.
Jeep
You must fight some Mercenary's in jeeps, the same tatics as with those on motobikes apply.They often appear in twos and only appear in Kazakhstan.Sheild Carring Mercenary
These Sheild Carring Mercenarys appear from Kazakhstan onwards. The easiest way to fight them is up close taking advantage of the bullet time
jump to go over them and shoot their exposed backs.Amanda's Creature - Boss
You fight this creature at the end of Kazakhstan. You cannot kill it with normal weapons. To fight it you must first pull the four leavers around the room.
If you jump-run then the creatures bolts will hit you less as it can only get you when you are on the ground. Next you need to push the four
central orbs into the field at the same time with the tesler gun, keep trying as the creature will occsionally knock you off. If you need to get
him out of the way for a bit you can push him into the force fields but he will only dissapear for a short time so its not really worth it.
Sea Serpent - Boss
Astoundingly this is the first enemy you face in England. This is another enemy you cannot kill with conventional weapons.
It can hit you or shoot fire at you, both take alot of your health so kill him as fast as possible. To kill him you need to shoot the large tanks
with cages above them with your accurate aim. They will make a din, shown by yellow circles, and the monster will investigate.
When he is looking pull the leaver next to the tank with your grapple, the cage will drop and the monster will destroy it, in a minicutscene,
taking 1/4 of its health. Once you have done this with all 4 tanks the monster will die.Snow Leopard
The snow leopard appears in Nepal. These stunning creatures are similar to the Jaguars and it is best to keep away from them.
In two of the three cases where you meet them there is high ground which you can use to keep out of their reach.
