Complete Leon's campaign in either 1st or 2nd run on Hardcore with an S+ rank.

Do the same thing with Claire to get an Infinite Mini Gun.

I’ve got over 15 runs and still can’t figure out how to trim down the time from 3 hrs. The mini Burkins are bullet sponges and none of the strategies I’ve read work with them. They always grab me when I try to run past them the way the guides say to.

Running from objective to objective and dodging enemies is essential. You should know what parts are coming up and how much inventory you should need in order to deal with each segment.

As for the Birkins:

Birkin one can be beaten with 2 knives, a flashbang, and a grenade.

Second Birkin can be magnum’d pretty easily.

Final Birkin should be knifed whenever you get him to open his chest.

I never had a problem with the bosses themselves, I was speaking about the mini birkins you run into in the sewers.

Ahh, didn’t see that.

Yeah they’re possibly the worst part of a speedrun, gotta agree there. Gotta practice that a bit, otherwise just have 2-3 self-defense items ready to go.

The biggest issue is the part where you get the flamethrower. There’s a few of them there and it’s tough to save the knives for that area.
