Creatures in cradle?

[Krehlmar]

Ok Ive just started this mission, even though I usually have no problem with zombies, ghosts and such freak me out... especially little girl voices and such...

Well the thing is, Ive started to enter the asylum, and all them noises are scary...

But I just want to know, are there creatures that cant be killed or what?
Because Zombies are easy to kill, just backstab em and throw a holy water flask on the corpse, tada it goes away.

But I hate things which ya cant kill, I love the feeling of a well swept level... no enemys, just me lurking after treasure...

Enlighten me.

There are.... THINGS very much resembling zombies in the Cradle. They're tougher then normal zombies though, and even on easy if you're spotted they can take up to 4 fire arrows to kill. They also move very fast.

seriusly that level is scaring me... its worse than Resident evil or anything... I dont dare open that addict door... hell no...

oh and I forgot to ask, can you backstab em?..

Don't bother to backstab, I use flashbombs, it only takes two. depending on where you throw them.I'm really not sure if you can backstab them, I never really got that close!

Yes. But it takes more then that to kill them.

When you go back to the past as yourself, the shadowy guards aren't zombies. I didn't figure this out and wasted a good few fire arrows till I realized I could backstab them.

Hehehehe... Staffing issues... Easily dealt with ;)

Crouch down and slash them. They are unarmed and can't reach you properly... Often.
