How to unlock the The Prisoner Who Lost Everything achievement in RESIDENT EVIL CODE: Veronica X - Definitive Guide
This trophy is storyline related, therefore it´s unmissable.
Just before you start playing as Chris, you will face an enemy called Nosferatu at the top of the Antarctic Transport Terminal (this battle happens after using the valve handle in the room filled with gas where you need to equip the gas mask). Defeat him to earn this trophy.
SPECIFIC STRATEGY
In order to defeat this enemy, you absolutely need to keep your distance (unless you choose a less orthodox strategy), not only because it emits a poisonous gas which can infect Claire with an illness no blue herb can cure (and thus, you will have to find a special serum with Chris which will make you lose valuable seconds), but because he can throw you out of the ceiling with a single hit, killing you in the process.
To kill him from distance, you can use the rifle obtained earlier and aim directly at the center of his chest, firing 6 to 7 well placed shots to kill him. Alternatively, you can use 30 explosive bolts to get rid of him quickly.
(It is even possible to eliminate Nosferatu using only the knife, but your timing must be perfect and you have to keep constant movement in order to not get hit).
Whatever your strategy you choose, you will receive the trophy after killing Nosferatu.
This trophy is storyline related and cannot be missed. Near the end of Claire's adventure you'll be attacked by Alfred and Alexia's father; Nosferatu. Defeat him to finish up Claire's adventure and earn this trophy.
Battle Spoilers
Encountering Nosferatu
Near the end of Claire's Antarctic adventure you'll have an 8-point valve handle and use it to turn off the poison leak. Once the leak is turned off you'll be attacked by Alfred who will be dealt with. Go to where he fell and pick up his rifle. After the cutscene you'll be on a frozen helipad, try to leave the area to start the battle.
Nosferatu Fight
Nosferatu has two attacks; his first is he'll swing his giant arm around. The helipad is frozen and if hit you can slide off the platform and die. His second attack is a poison spit, the poison will flow from the ground and can blow towards you depending on the air. This fight isn't too difficult as long as you don't find yourself trapped by his poison attacks.
Nosferatu's heart is exposed and is his weak spot. I recommend using Alfred's Sniper Rifle (you'll go into First Person View) and shoot him in the heart; you'll know you hit his heart if he staggers, hisses and you see only red blood. You can drop him in 4 Sniper Rifle bullets if you repeatedly hit the heart. The hard part is you need to be relatively close to see his heart and he swaggers about. Take your time, steady your aim and make your shots count.
NOTE: If Claire gets poisoned during this fight you'll have an extra mission once Chris reaches her in Antarctica. Avoiding being poisoned helps your time limit to earn an A-Rank
if you go on a speedrun, then quickly collect 30-40 explosive arrows + AK
