Use the siringe on yourself and Meryl (just grab her, press triangle to inject. Saves ammo.)

Make sure you have the siringe equipped in order to do it. It cuts the power she has over you for a certain amount of time to both of you. After that, shoot the dolls and grab those too. They're the source of her power.

Here you go. Walk up a few levels in the room and equip a sniper rifle or the M4 with a scope. Then just shoot the doll in her right hand (that's your left). You have to shoot the doll until she drops it. Then pick it up and use the doll against her.

Be sure to creep closer as you see the doll getting loose from the strings. She will pick it up if you don't first. Don't worry too much about the guards during all this. She will try to block the doll with guards and friendlies in the room.

Just focus on that doll and you'll be fine. Good luck.

Oh and also, use the Psycho Mantis doll to get her in 1 shot (have to hold L1 and shake the controler though to dangle her like a puppet)

I know, I was confused on which he needed help with. But yeah, I dont know why people call them Crying Mantis because theyre not even in the same form/location. Ive seen several people do that too.

You can actually shoot both dolls down. Psycho mantis controls the living i think and the sorrow(blue doll) controls the dead.

Inject yourself with the syringe.Then shoot the Sorrow doll(the blue one) with a tranquilizing weapon, that way the dead frogs will leave you alone, then shoot the physcho mantis doll(red one) with a regular weapon. Then the rest of the fight is a breeze.
