Wheelchairs

Use wheelchairs to take survivors to the safehouse instead of using your arms or your back. Just push a wheelchair up to the survivor and wait for them to sit down (they don't have to be injured). When you run the wheelchair to the safehouse you can use it as a weapon hitting zombies but don't hit too many or crash into too many walls or the wheelchair will break and you will dump the survivor. The wheelchair can also be armed with weapons and used like a tank as shown in the video below.

Defeating Leon

Find the motorbike at the front of the arena and ride it to the fireworks store at Silver Strip. Get rockets from there and ride the bike to the alley with the maintenance room. Get a metal pipe and then ride the bike to the rock canyon. Enter the maintenance room in the rocks and create a rocket launcher. Exit the door of the maintenance room and stand in the left side corner and save the game. When Leon appears from the left side he will run into the wall. Use the rocket launcher you created and keep shooting at him until he has been killed.


Weapon Combos

Lead pipe + Rocket fireworks = Rocket launcher (75 shots!) Orange juice + Vodka = energizer (gives you full health). Boxing gloves + motor oil = Flaming gloves. Next there is a lmg on one of the rocks at the dark bean mix it with the wheelchair makes what I like to call rolling death. Milk + Orange = Nector (atracts Queens towards you). Goblin Mask + Car Batery = Roaring Thunder. Bow and Arrow + Dynamite = Blambow submited by Truth4none and pyrofighter258


Ok how to get a shot gun

Ok on the mision[wrong I'm in a hurry]were you follow a reporter on the way you see a cop with a shot gun hit him take it lolz ^_^


Secret Combo Card

In order to make the secret combo card, you must combine nectar (orange juice + orange juice at a blender, you can find the OJ at the kiosk between A mens sport, and The Chiefs Hut) and a queen, to make "Wingman". NOTE: The queen will not have the blue wrench as its icon, and neither will the Nectar.


MORE PP spots and such

Alright, i know in my previous PP spots post, that i said the bull was in the slot ranch casino, it is actually in the americana casino! But anyways, i found some more spots. Enjoy! P.S. If you find that some of the previously mentioned ways for PP only gets you 1,000, my zero key sticks.

1. You can find zombrex posters everywhere in DR2, and you guys might know about the achievement or trophy you get for spraying them all. i do believe there are 32 in the game, and each time you spray paint a zombrex poster, you get 1,000 PP, and if all 32 (more or less) are painted you get 10,000 PP, thats a total of 42,000 PP!(plus an achievement or trophy!)

2. I have some easy psychopaths that you can beat without health items :D and strategies for them as well:

Seym..


Secret Combo Locations

When you exit the safe house, take a left at The Dark Bean, and go to the kiosk between The Mens Sport (or The Mens Place, I cant remember) and The Chiefs Hut. Climb, to the top, and you will find a safe zone and a Bowie Knife! Also, since you're right next to The Mens Place/Sport head in and grab boxing gloves and MMA gloves. Head back towards the safe house, with the bowie knife too, and go into the maintenance room, and combine the box of nails in the maintenance room with the MMA gloves to get the Tenderizers. Next, combine the Bowie Knife And the Boxing gloves to get Knife Gloves!!! happy slicing!!

PS there are 3 magazines at the Kiosk too! a combat, health, and a leadership.


PP spots and such.

As we all know DR2 is a very fun, secret filled game, it can get frustrating to half to escort survivors and kill psychopaths ALL DAY. So, me being a cheater, I went and grinded for 10 hours looking for ways to get PP, and here are my findings!

1. In the Palisades mall, go to the top of the pool and use the slide for 10,000 PP

2. Also in the Palisades, go to the gym (cant miss it) and run all on the treadmills until it says "used treadmill, 1,000 PP" then when u have ran on them all, you will get "All Treadmills! 10,000 PP" Cool, right?

3. In the Atlantica, Find the little dolphin ring, and pay some money to ride it around. If done right, EVEN MORE PP!

4. in the yucatan casino, go under the big slot machine in the middle of the room (there is ..


Close Combo

If you need a good combo weapon right off the bat, might as well grab a Defiler. Inside of the safe house, there should be an axe close to the surveillance room. Grab that and head out through the air duct. Close to the door that leads to the mall, there should be a sledge hammer. Take that as well, and head back to the maintenance room. Combine both the sledge hammer and the axe, and you'll have yourself one hell of a weapon.


LMG location1

Go outside to the diner and infront of it should be a building with a snack machine on the right side and jump on it then 2 ledges then youll find a light machine gun(LMG).


Sniper rifle location1

Go to the second floor and look for a telophone booth jump on it then jump on top of the colum then run towards the broken stair way then jump om it then turn around and jump to the platform above then jump forward then go in the window and you will find a sniper rifle.
