10 Hard Video Game Bosses With Weaknesses You Utilised

3. Quiet - Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Quiet is one of Metal Gear Solid V's most controversial characters. Her appearance is criticised for its suggestive nature, but what often goes unnoticed is her place in the story.

One of many compelling personalities dreamed up by Hideo Kojima, Quiet is introduced to players in the opening scene of the game, although we don't know it yet. She later appears and is recruited to serve as one of Big Boss' four companions, but not before she puts up a fight.

Out-witting Quiet is a lot of fun, and there are flashes of The End in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater in the fight, but it can be overcome with a simple, yet innovative gameplay quirk.

After marking her across the map, simply request two supply drops to her location and they'll bonk the deadly assassin on the head, ending the fight early. It's a trick that makes a tough encounter far easier, but in doing so robs the player of the satisfaction knowing they they are more efficient than she is.

Nevertheless, Quiet will now be defeated and the game can continue as normal.
