How can I eliminate the Long Coat elite opponents in Desperados 3? Desperados 3 guide, walkthrough
Long Coat is the name of the strongest and most difficult type of enemy in Desperados 3. On this page of our guide, we explain how to effectively get rid of Long Coat enemies in order to peacefully complete mission objectives.

To remind you, Long Coat enemies can be recognized by the long black coats they wear. They appear from the third campaign mission. As you advance in the game, confrontations with them will unfortunately become more frequent. These opponents are not only stronger but also more alert. For example, they are able to expose Kate while she is moving around in disguise.

The only hero able to eliminate Long Coat enemies is Hector. He can:
- Kill a Long Coat enemy with an axe.
- Stun a Long Coat opponent when you choose the melee attack.
Note - Don't try to set a bear trap on a Long Coat enemy. Long Coat will notice the trap and avoid it.

The abilities of the other heroes do not allow you to kill Long Coat enemies. The best you can count on is to stun a Long Coat opponent. For example, Kate's perfumes or McCoy's Buntline may be useful to stun Long Coats (picture above).
In conclusion, if Hector is not available on a particular mission, avoid the Long Coat enemies or stun them with other gadgets. Then, quickly move away from them.
