The biggest and worst infections you'll come across in The Last of Us Part One are called bloaters. The best advice in this gorgeous recreation is to stay away from any bloated interactions you don't have to participate in, regardless of the difficulty setting you've chosen. These encounters could kill you and use up your limited resources.
After discussing the reasons why you should flee from bloaters by running or sneaking away, let's discuss how to handle an inevitable bloater encounter in high school. The timing of this boss encounter, one of the game's few bosses, makes it particularly difficult. The game's opening is just around the corner. You don't have access to all of your equipment, there aren't many upgrades, and the bloater doesn't appear on its own. Even while it may appear to be complete pandemonium, there are strategies to handle the bloater and rank your enemies.
Use Your Manual Save
Although the autosave system is fantastic, it's always a good idea to use your manual save, whether you're facing up against the bloater at the high school or one of the ones later in the game. It acts as a small safety net to prevent you from suffering a severe setback if the contact doesn't go as planned. This advice should be mentioned right away due to the complexity of the bloaters.
Kill The Other Infected
It's true that saying rather than doing However, it is the task. The extra infected are there to confuse you, prevent you from taking cover, and generally cause mayhem while the bloater either pelts you from a distance or charges you from a melee distance. You need to pick off the infected while avoiding the bloaters because you don't want to be a part of that. If at all feasible, utilize melee weapons in the area to deal with the infected and save your ammunition. You'll discover that ammo is one of the game's most valuable commodities, so you don't want anyone to raid your stockpile. Even while you could find explosives beneficial in this scenario, you should never use a Molotov on a typical infected person. Later on, you'll be grateful you have that because you'll need it.
Maintain Your Distance
After you've eliminated the unnecessary afflicted foes, you can focus solely on the bloater. Keep an eye on your surroundings, avoid being cornered, and resist the urge to be grabbed by the bloater. Sadly, your shiv won't be able to save you now. Using melee weapons will also not benefit you. You will lose the game immediately if you approach the blower too closely. There will be times of safety when you can create something or stop for a moment, but you should use these times wisely and prefer to keep moving. Although the bloater first appears to be moving slowly, it has a way of ambushing you as you're looking through your backpack.
Apply Cover
Keep in mind that the bloater also possesses a deadly charge strike that might be challenging to evade while you rush to avoid its ranged assaults. Your best course of action in this situation is to hide behind cover (or any form of obstruction) and/or move around as much as you can. The bloater will strike the cover when it sprints straight for you, and you'll be able to regain some distance from the terrifying adversary.
Using Fire
Nothing will have a greater impact on the blower than a fire. Throw what you have, if you have a Molotov. If you run out, locate a safe area (only for a brief period of time) to create more, then throw those. Later on in the game, when you're up against another bloater, you might have access to a flamethrower, which will utterly destroy the overgrown infected. Never hesitate to throw fire at a bloater, even though resource conservation is typically the best course of action. If you don't have access to fire for whatever reason, you can make do with explosives. Although less lethal, they will nevertheless be helpful. The bloater can also be slowly taken down with well-placed bullets. Fire is the preferred weapon, but you are not doomed without it. Periodically, the infected will keep coming into the room. To compensate for a lack of fire if you're playing on a harder difficulty, you can farm these foes for more ammunition.
Shoot The Growths
After using fire to potentially soften the bloater, you should arm yourself with a gun and kill the growths that are all over its body. These growths might appear on the belly, the back, or the chest. The fight will become much safer for the time being if you shoot these growths because doing so will prevent the bloater from employing its ranged attacks against you. You are nearly there.
Avoid The Plates
Make sure not to aim your rounds at the bloater's plates while you're shooting at the growth. Bloaters have a type of armor called natural plating that will indisputably consume whatever ammunition you fire at them. Since ammo is probably more important than any other resource, you should make every effort to make sure that every shot really helps your cause.
Survive and Endure
If you've heeded every piece of guidance offered here, you ought to emerge from the conflict with little injury and the majority of the resources you brought with you. You're also prepared for any further bloaters Joel and Ellie may face on their quest. Being prepared is the most important aspect of success in The Last of Us Part 1.
