Tips on defeating the Inkquisitor
The Inkquisitor is a relatively tough fight, so bring a team with you if you can. They will attack you with Fireflies and the new Pumpkin Launcher. This means fire, basically, so take care not to get trapped in any of the wooden structures that line the area. Your best bet is to get in close with a shotgun or SMG, or to use the new Goo Gun if you have one to hand. The Inkquisitor doesn’t have much health, but does have the support of any zombies in the area. Clear these as you go, so that you don’t get backed into any corners.
