In Resident Evil Village, two major challenges—Timber and Unstoppable—require you to take down the giant boss Urias and eliminate 30 Lycans in the opening village sequence. These challenges can be tricky, but with the right strategy, you can complete them efficiently, even on higher difficulties.

Understanding the Challenges

• Timber: Defeat Urias, the massive bearded Lycan, during the village ambush.
• Unstoppable: Kill at least 30 Lycans in the same sequence before the cutscene triggers.

These challenges can be done on any difficulty, but certain strategies make them much easier. Here’s how to accomplish both in one playthrough.

Best Approach and Strategy

1. Select the Right Difficulty

• If you are attempting this early on, play on Casual or Standard difficulty for an easier experience.
• If you have already beaten the game, try Village of Shadows difficulty with an infinite ammo Magnum for efficiency.

2. Optimize Your Loadout

• Fully upgraded shotguns and sniper rifles are excellent for Lycans.
• Magnums (with infinite ammo unlocks) will help melt through Urias quickly.
• Use explosives if you have them, as they can damage multiple Lycans at once.

3. The Best Chokepoint Strategy (Recommended for High Difficulty Runs)

• After triggering the Lycans’ ambush, run back up the stairs where they initially break in.
• The window acts as a barrier, meaning the only way for Lycans to reach you is through the staircase.
• This setup allows for easy headshots and efficient ammo usage.

4. The Free-Roam Aggressive Approach

• If you prefer a more aggressive method, run around the village square, prioritizing headshots and keeping enemies in front of you.
• Keep moving and use environmental objects for cover.
• Utilize barrels and explosives for crowd control.

5. Audio Cues and Progression

• You’ll know you’re progressing correctly when you hear audio cues for Urias spawning.
• If you haven’t killed enough Lycans before he arrives, keep fighting until you reach 30 kills.

6. Taking Down Urias

• Once Urias appears, focus on him immediately.
• Aim for the head for maximum damage.
• Magnum or sniper rifle shots will take him down quickly.
• If necessary, retreat to the stairway chokepoint for easier aiming and defense.

Final Tips

• Infinite Ammo Magnum makes both challenges significantly easier.
• If you fail to reach 30 Lycan kills, restart the sequence and optimize your strategy.
• Listen for the cutscene trigger—if it activates before 30 kills, you’ll need to restart.
• Experiment with different weapons and save ammo for Urias.

By following these strategies, you’ll complete both Timber and Unstoppable efficiently, unlocking their respective achievements/trophies. Happy hunting!
