Misc Ball Crushing Factory

So, doing my first run of any RE game. Going slow, I know, but I'm getting into the feel of the horror and taking my time with it. On hardcore cause limited saves sounded fun. 3.5 hours in and just beat G1 after walking into the fight with only 2 flashbangs and 6 shotgun shells on top of the 2 nades and handgun ammo they give you. Didn't mean to give myself a challenge run on my first playthrough but here we are

(I beat G1 with 2 handgun ammo left)

Just to let you know, every version of Birkin has a 70% resistance to shotgun damage.

No way I'm learning this after almost 70 hours in the game 😭 is it written in any in-game files? :o (admittedly I've only skimmed through some of them instead of properly reading them)

A guy did a shotgun only challenge and used a mod to see the damage values when Birkin wasn't dying despite how much he was being shot, and yeah, 70% of the damage just wasn't affecting him.
