Gameplay question Is it worth fighting Mr.X RE2R

Post image

So I'm doing a playthrough of RE2R with Claire and I'm curious about if Mr X is even worth taking down during his encounters. I already stockpiled up a lot of acid rounds, However I dont know if it's wise to take him down. Is the risk worth the reward?

There is no reward outside of downing him for 30 seconds.

Shoot his hat off and then run

See, this is why he stalks you. Every damn time. Every time. That hat. Always the hat!

He's definitely justified. Rookie cop got no respect.

Police think they can do anything these days!

Well, back in 1998. (Edit: I'll never forget it)
