[quote name='CaptainJoel']I got every shotgun in the game infinite ammo'd, I do need a magnum, though. Which mag is the best in the game?[/QUOTE]
Probably the Wesker one you have to buy? I think it's got the most stop and pop power. I didn't have the points necessary to unlock more guns with infinite ammo, so I only have the baseline of each with infinite, although all my weapons are fully upgraded. I spent the rest of my points on the figures for that trophy and have been using the other points for versus characters unlocks because it looks like there's an achievement there too.
So when I ran through pro with AI controlling Sheva, we both had melee and bulletproof vests. She carried the S&W base magnum with infinite ammo. Chris (me) had the Ithaca shotgun, Hunting rifle (SR75?), rocket launcher, and S&W base magnum with infinite ammo.
By far the two worst chapters, without a
ing doubt, are 2-3 and 5-3. The Ndesu is goddamn insane. I had enough to the point where I turned on random coop and random coop people weren't a help either. It took me 20
ing tries. The first half of 5-3 boss is tricky, but if you can split them up and just focus on the actual boss, you can spam rockets until he's gone. When you get to the second half, it's a giant pain in the ass. Recommended equipment for both parties there would be magnum/rocket launcher with both vests and the rest being first aid sprays. You could probably change to this setup and even drop the rocket launchers once you hit the checkpoint for the second half, since the rocket launcher is useless by then.
Since you'll have a non-AI player, you might be able to do it without them, but still, being able to one shot enemies is always good -- the only times I didn't use the magnums was when I knew I had distance to use the rocket launcher or had too many targets up close to be stop & pop with mag so I used the shotgun. Hunting rifle was only necessary for things like the final boss and other areas where you absolutely needed precision and the rocket launcher scope doesn't cut it.
