LE 5 is a weapon in Resident Evil 4.
Location[]
To acquire the LE 5 on the island, particularly in the freezer section where regeneradors are encountered, players must solve the power puzzle to activate the door leading to the room containing the locked weapon. Failing to obtain the LE 5 through this method will result in it being available in the Merchant's arsenal for 26,000 Pesetas after completing the chapter.
Gameplay[]
The LE 5 is a fully automatic SMG that boasts slightly higher damage, a smaller magazine size, lower rate of fire, but superior accuracy when compared to the TMP.
Distinguishing itself from the TMP, the LE 5 can be equipped with a scope attachment similar to rifle-type weapons, enhancing its range and providing various bonuses based on the scope used. Notably, the Bioscanner attachment makes the LE 5 a viable choice for swiftly dealing with Regenerators due to its penetration ability.
Although the LE 5 suffers from a lengthy initial reload time, this drawback can be mitigated with improvements over time. Players need to consider this aspect when initially equipping the weapon.
The combination of a lower rate of fire and higher damage makes the LE 5 advantageous for conserving ammunition in the long run.
The LE 5 serves as one of HUNK's starting weapons in The Mercenaries mode,.
