Unleash the Power Within: Ultimate Guide to Locating Every Boxer and Champion Effigy in Resident Evil 7 - End of Zoe DLC

In Resident Evil 7's End of Zoe DLC, players controlling Joe Baker must navigate through swamps and collect various items, such as the Boxer and Champion Effigies, to defeat the Swamp Man. These effigies, namely the Boxer Effigy and Champion Effigy, provide a one percent and five percent increase in punching power, respectively. By carrying these effigies, players can significantly enhance the punching strength of Uncle Joe Baker, the playable character in the DLC. While some effigies can randomly appear in breakable crates, players must diligently search specific locations in order to locate the majority of the effigies found in the End of Zoe DLC for Resident Evil 7. This guide aims to assist players in finding these specific locations and obtaining the necessary effigies to effectively take down the Swamp Man.

The Swamps

The initial effigy the players will come across is located on a yellow barrel, situated to the left immediately after passing through the first breakable door. Upon defeating the two molded creatures that are guarding the vicinity, players will have the opportunity to forcefully break down the door and acquire the first boxer effigy, in addition to a supply of chem fluid.

The next statue can be located once players advance beyond the initial military encampment, where the initial agile molded emerges. Upon eliminating the second agile molded by employing the throwing spear, players will come across an additional door that can be broken down. Punch through the door, ascend the staircase, and on the left-hand side, players will discover a safe spot accompanied by a boxer statue.

The following effigy becomes obtainable right after defeating the swamp monster for the first time. As soon as the bout comes to an end, descend from the dock and enter the adjacent shed on the right-hand side. Inside, players will come across the third boxer effigy hanging on the wall to the right, positioned above a tape recorder resting on a table.

The Ship

After making their way up the ladders and onto the ship, players will come across yet another boxer effigy located on the rooftop of the main deck. Proceeding across the deck, they will find a staircase leading up to the bridge. Passing the entrance to the bridge, players should then take the metal walkway on the left, just before reaching the staircase that descends to the opposite end of the main deck. Along the damaged edge of the left side of the roof, players will stumble upon a boxer effigy.

After descending to the lower deck, gamers will face the task of eliminating a diverse range of heavily armored, nimble, and standard molded adversaries. Once the molded enemies have been successfully eradicated from the first level below deck, players will venture down to the second level in search of the first champion effigy. On entering the initial available room on the second sublevel, players will come across a fragile crate and an air duct. It is advisable for players to first plunder the contents of the crate before venturing into the air duct, which will lead them directly to the champion effigy.

After emerging from the duct, players will discover a chamber occupied by two molded creatures and a door that can be shattered. Once the creatures have been eliminated and the door passed through, ascend the left-sided ladder. When reaching the ladder's apex, assume a crouching position and direct the gaze towards the right. In this direction, a boxer effigy can be spotted, leaning against a collection of propane tanks situated on the lower shelf.

The Docks

Upon disembarking the ship, players will venture through a submerged passage that passes beneath a dwelling, skillfully maneuvering past the lurking alligators. Emerge from the hidden pathway beneath the structure, and continue onwards across a vast expanse of water teeming with these formidable creatures, using the intermittent square portions of the dock that extend above the surface.

After traversing the aquatic pathway, gamers will stumble upon a miniature expanse of water housing a refrigerator on the opposing bank. To claim a champion effigy, advance across the water's surface and unlock the fridge. However, players must exercise caution when entering the water preceding the refrigerator, since an alligator will emerge the instant they reach waist-deep depth. Swiftly eradicate this menace by employing a throwing spear.

As players make their way through the final section of the docks, they will come across another champion effigy. This serves as a clue that they are on the right track, as they will also encounter two sets of three foes on the worn-out walkways.

Alternatively, players have the option to continue onwards until they reach a breakable door that leads out of the docks and back into the swamps. From there, they can easily return to the previous area of the docks. In this last section, the effigy can be found in a tree that is visible right from the beginning. Players will need to ascend the ramp and follow the walkway to the left to reach it (don't forget to collect the loot from the crate at the top of the ramp).

Players should proceed towards the tree while remaining vigilant of the area beneath, as alligators will appear as players traverse the water. In case players lack any throwing spears, they can follow the wooden pathway after the initial encounter with molded enemies to acquire two collectible spears.

Upon leaving the docks area, players will come across a shed situated on the left side of the walkway. Once inside, they will stumble upon an additional tape recorder, providing them with the opportunity to save their progress. Remarkably, players will also discover yet another boxer effigy within this location.

The Baker House

While exploring the ancient house, players have the opportunity to obtain a champion effigy. Upon reaching the double doors that Ethan used to enter this area during the campaign, players can proceed into the next room. Turning right, they will come across a champion effigy wedged against a barred door.
