Well, you get the most points from shooting them and then moving in for the close range attack. Depending on the enemy, you get between 500 and around 5000 per hit from bullets, and a close range attack is double that (but only one hit). So, shooting an enemy worth 3000 points, say 8 times (24k), then a close range attack (6k), and the item (most likely to be the 30k blue diamond). There's 60k there, instead of 36k for just a close range attack.(posted 8767 days ago)Okay, I think I've rambled on enough there... :)
