The Infected Trinity Soldiers are found in an old abandoned Soviet Weapons Research Facility in the Rise of the Tomb Raider Downloadable Content Cold Darkness Awakened. They were infected by an unknown Toxin seeping from the installation and subsequently mutated and developed superhuman strength and reflexes, but lack basic human conciseness.
In the Cold Darkness DLC Lara enters the area of the research facility to prevent the toxin from spreading to the Remnant valley. She is attacked by Infected Trinity Soldiers almost at once.
Appearance
Although still basically human - as they mutated from the regular Trinity Soldiers -, the Infected Trinity Soldiers now more closely resemble some kind of zombies. They have torn off parts of their uniforms and stumble blindly through the Siberian Wilderness. They also left their weapons behind, although they will viciously attack as soon as they detect any disturbance, using deadly melee attacks.
Occurrence
The Infected Trinity Soldiers can only be found in the Rise of the Tomb Raider Downloadable Content Cold Darkness Awakened. The Undead in the Blood Ties: Lara's Nightmare DLC look and behave similar, but they are only a figment of Lara's imagination.
Powers
- Aggressive melee attacks with bare hands
- Tough to kill with regular weaponry, but weak to Poison Arrows
Strategy
On higher Difficulty settings Lara should probably avoid any conflict with the Infected. This, however, is not always possible, so she should be prepared and stock up on Ammo. Although nearly invulnerable and hard to hit because they are moving so fast, they will succumb if hit multiple times. Head shots kill them instantly.
Attacking the Infected - or simply being too noisy - can attract a deadly Swarm of Infected that may be very difficult to get rid of. Poison Arrows are a good strategy here to kill as many as possible in one go.
