Opt for the Red9 to target enemies' heads as your primary attack strategy
As Luis in Mercenaries mode, the Red9 is your go-to weapon. The Sniper Rifle lacks rapid-fire capability and has an unreliable ammo supply, so reserve it for strong enemies or opportunities for one-shot multi-kills.
Use a Sniper Rifle against tough enemies or enemy groups
Use Luis's Sniper Rifle for tackling strong foes like Brutes or when enemies cluster together. Given its limited ammo and slower fire rate, switch to the rifle when you can maximize damage efficiently.
The combo of Flash Grenade and Dynamite is powerful
Luis's Dynamite in Bullet Rush can deal widespread damage, pairing well with Flash Grenades to immobilize enemies. Due to a 2-second delay from activation to the explosion, it's advisable to trigger the Dynamite a bit early.
Luis's Bullet Rush
Inflict wide-range damage with dynamite
Bullet Rush allows him to throw dynamite at his feet, dealing heavy damage to nearby enemies. However, Luis is also vulnerable to the blast. To mitigate this, place the dynamite between yourself and the enemy group, then lure the enemies into the explosion.
Be cautious of the time delay from throw to detonation
The dynamite used in Luis's Bullet Rush has a delay of approximately 4 seconds from the throw to detonation. It's advisable to carefully time your throw to efficiently defeat enemies by detonating it at the optimal moment.
