Wall Blister

Wall Blister

The Wall Blister is an exclusive creature that appears in the HD ports of Resident Evil: Revelations.

History

Their origins appear to be traced to the pool located in the Solarium aboard the Queen Zenobia, where a maintenance worker noted a seemingly benign colony of barnacles attached at the bottom of the pool. Despite the efforts to clear the colony, they returned, and matured to a size that eventually caused damage to the pipes distributing water to the pool, causing contamination within the pool's water.

Biography

Wall Blisters are large, bulbous creatures that vaguely resemble actual undersea barnacles. When they are not clinging onto a surface, they take on a somewhat humanoid appearance, having two legs and two very long arms, lined with multiple claws.

Gameplay

Wall Blisters often appear as dormant, curled masses attached to various surfaces within the Queen Zenobia. In this state, they can be seen moving, but are seemingly unresponsive to any form of attack, furthermore they appear to be completely impervious to damage. Wall blisters will remain in this state of dormancy until certain conditions are met, after which they will then suddenly spring to life, and drop off whatever surface they were clinging onto.

After releasing themselves, they release a loud cry and will charge towards their target at an alarming speed, and attempt to grab their target. When caught, it then lifts the victim into the air and thrashes them around before snapping their back and tossing the body away.

Once the Wall Blister has been killed it will shrivel up into a mound before exploding - causing significant damage to the player if they don't back off before the explosion occurs.

Strategy

While Wall Blisters are incredibly agile and possess great strength, they are also fairly fragile.

When confronted by one, it is best to dispose of them as quickly as possible to avoid instant death.

When a Wall Blister drops down from whatever surface it was clinging to, take the opportunity to act quickly and shoot it with a few blasts from your shotgun directly in the facial area - do this while backing up to keep a safe distance while also dealing damage to the creature. This kills them quickly and spares the effort and resources used to fight them.

Sniper rifles such as the Rifle M40A1 are also an effective weapon to use against them. The M40A1 is moved from the Promenade to the Solarium, where Wall Blisters are introduced, as a result.

If the player is grabbed by a Wall Blister in Raid Mode, it is possible to escape certain death if their partner kills the creature before they are lifted into the air.

"An unknown creature. While its form suggests a connection with the t-Abyss virus, whether it is the result of spontaneous mutation due to infection, or a purposely developed B.O.W., is a complete mystery."
