Silent Hill 3 Hints
How do I defeat the boss?
1 of 3: All you can see is shadows, so don't rely on peripheral vision in this case. Leonard will pop out of the water without warning, so keep moving as fast as you can run in the waist-high water. Open fire when he rises up.
2 of 3: If you enter your Caution Stance, Heather will automatically face Leonard if he's close enough, regardless of whether he's above or underwater. Keep moving so he doesn't catch you by surprise.
3 of 3: It's best to use ranged weapons against Leonard so that you don't need to get too close to his powerful attacks. If you do have to use a melee weapon, use overhead and/or thrusting attacks to hopefully disrupt his attacks. Repeat until Leonard falls.
