Lok on hardboiled *new method*

[|oneyedNewb|]

hope this helps some of you guys, it did help me a lot!, i was reading all the other guides for beating the boss lok and no offence to the authors but i didn't find them helpful. maybe it was to some others but not to me, please do not take offence :) your help still helped me quiet a bit with this new method.

Phase 1
go straight to the stairs in front of you go into the middle of the stairs so he isn't able to hit you, go into tequila mode and using a rifle you should be able to take out his health after a few rounds into his head.

phase 2
as soon as he goes into phase 2, make sure you follow him everywhere. make sure you stand on the upper floor at all times, keep on the top of the stairs and try to spot him before he reaches the stairs, you should see him about to go up. when you see him on the lower floor make sure you go into tequila mode with your rifle and aim for the head again.

as soon as his health goes down, just a bit. make sure you go to the other set of stairs and do the same thing.
note: the next few times, you may be able to get a lot! more shots in... make sure you go into tequila mode and aim for the head (all the time) that you see him, then he goes into...

Phase3
this was the hardest part of the method, as you will need to go down to the lower floor, find as many cranes as you can and use barrage 2 or 3 times to kill him.

I tried this method, combined with shooting the statues' legs so that they fell on him. And after a couple of times it actually worked, without the golden guns, on Hard Boiled! :woop:

Thanks a lot, dude! I just conquered one of the hardest parts of the game on the hardest difficulty.

While this method is probably the easy way to do it - there is another 'sneaky' way to make this battle a lot less painful.

Do the method suggested above for the first stage so you don't lose any health. Then run to the top of the stairs and duck behind the pillar (if you are facing the stairs and they go to your right then you want the pillar on your right, it will be right at the entrance to the stairs).

Now wait for Lok to head upstairs and make sure he can't shoot you from the stairway, he will then try to come onto the balcony and shoot you, so just edge to the right of the pillar. Then he will try and go back down the steps and shoot you - so edge back to the left.

If you keep doing this and making minor adjustments then eventually he will stop moving and you will be able to edge to a position where you can just shoot him past the pillar and he WILL DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

You can even stop firing to get more ammo and he will stick in the same position.

I've tried this a few times and got it to work everytime. The only warning is that, when he reaches his third stage he WILL still throw grenades (though strangely not shoot at you) so make sure you aren't too close or quickly go into barrage mode to finish him off.

I found this was the easiest way to finish him off on Hardboiled. Hope it helps.
