9 Predictions For Horizon Forbidden West -> ua-cam.com/video/ICViFkUhBGI/v-deo.html
Why is the video only in 720? For Horizon it should be in 4k.
Need to definitely upgrade that video game capture 🤨😬😬
@@Lilmangamer710 you are probably on mobile. I thought the same from back then. you need to go for larger screens to experience such a change. a PC for example.
Rockbreaker was the hardest for me followed by the frost and fire claws. Thunderjaws were a cake walk compared to them.
Yeah same Rockbreaker is the hardest
Thunderjaw was hardest for me followed by fireclaw. Rockerbreakers don't even make my list though, unless it's two at the same time. I died most to thunderjaw and stormbirds before i learned how to take them down. Currently, my hardest machine list only consists of the fireclaw, those things just don't wanna die.
@@lastshadow8680 iirc thunderjaws are the t-Rex robots right? That shouldn’t even be a challenge 2 tearblast arrows to the back then you send it’s ass to robo heaven with a barrage of its own destructo discs or whatever they’re called
@@cuphead5887 @
I play on ultra hard😅 Tearblast arrows are heavily nerfed. In any case, i was talking about in my early playing days. Thunderjaw are just a full freeze and a couple triple shots of hardpoint arrows now. I fear no machines but i usually try to steer clear of Fireclaws and Scorchers
@@lastshadow8680 I have to try this
Why snapmaws? You just destroy the lohe canisters on their head and they are dead, a shell walker is much more of a pain to fight
I always just triple knocked arrows and shot their freeze sacs when they went to attack. Then just keep smashing them with arrows
or just set them in fire and watch them burn. It's their weakness
It takes like two tear blast arrows in between the shell and the body and there you go basically a free kill when it comes to shell walkers and yes snapmaws are stupid just triple nock you bow with fire and grab you coffee and watch the flames
You can shoot the underside of shell walker and they'll get electrocuted. Or use mines when you're prepared.
Longlegs are stupid easy as well shoot their air sack a couple of times and it’s dead
Definitely the rockbreaker and fire claws. I still think that pair of corrupted rockbreakers is the toughest fight in the game. Properly equipped, a regular rockbreaker isn't too difficult to take down. Cut off its digging arms and hit its blaze belly, but the corrupted pair? I don't even attempt that fight until very, very late in the game. The first time I took them down, I think I walked a Ravager cannon to them.
Yeah rockbreaker is the one of the hardest machine that i fought i need to get to the higher ground to kill that machine
agreed. the dual corrupted rockbreakers were so hard. I lucked out and was able to draw a Behemoth convoy + a bunch of snapmaws to those rockbreakers to win that fight in my 2nd attempt
@@066kshitizvsingh4 Yes they were extremely formidable foes. I'd love to see a rockbreaker vs fireclaw fight
My combo for rockbreaker is to freeze them first then use icerail sniper shot to take them out.
Yes, the corrupted rockbreakers were brutal. Plus, decided to torture myself and tried to take them out on ultra hard mode.😅 It was hard, but doable.😊
The first time I ever saw a Rockbreaker I panicked. Lol It scared me so bad. After I figured out if you keep them frozen and shot off its feet they aren't too bad. Still bad though. Lol
Besides the Fireclaw, the corrupted Rockbreakers were the ones that wrecked me the most until I figured it out.
If Aloy keep sneaking (no running) rockbreakers are not that bad. Their sight is not that good comparing to other large-sized machines even under UH. When they are underground, rolling/sneaking into tall grass and clever using of rocks (those in the field as sight-breaking terrain, not those toss-able) it's very easy to pull out of their red alert status.
The Scorchers gave me the hardest time of all the machines, they are just so freaking fast. And compared to the rest of the machines in the game it’s just way faster than anything else
Agreed. One of 2 machines i avoid as soon as i spot them for that reason (the other is the fireclaw). I used to fear Scorchers but i understand better how to take them down, still isn't worth the hassle though
@@lastshadow8680 You ain't never lying.
The daemonic scorcher is even worse...
they're quite sensitive to shock, place some wires well in advance (later there will be no time indeed)
@@intothestorm1394 Not if they're Daemonic, which you meet up most of the time.
Fireclaws had me throw my controller a few times. Stalkers always pop up when you're just trying to explore. Lol!
Not really. Those trap mines let you know they're nearby
I hated the rockbreaker but imagine having to fight a tallneck
😂😂
Though Aloy cannot kill a tallneck... it can indeed kill Aloy by kicking her a**...
Just use a Tripcaster. A big one
If I had to fight that thing I would call an army of overridden thunderjaws and rockbreakers 😂😂😂😂
@@Malcolmseymourking Rockbreakers to weaken the ground beneath its feet, and thunderjaws to bring upon death?
This video brought back so MANY memories of this wonderful game, so many battles, not many games have such a refreshing, unique and multitudes of enemies that keep getting interesting as you play
Corrupted rock breakers on hard difficulty was a nightmare
*Daemonic
2 of them in corrupted zone level 32 is hell even on normal
@@Yos_207 thank god i fucken ignored thos zones on very ultimate powerful hard mode, even with 4damge modifiers they are pain, only good way to fight it is to bait it with arrows and use purple arrows to break his legs then gl with his stone attack
@@nextbigthingthebeastincarn7216 how I hate that
@@firetrap6706 and of course frost arrows to increase damage
Even with good upgrades, Stormbirds and Thunderjaws were quite the pain in the ass to fight.
Thank god for the Frozen Wilds weapons.
Oh ive fought these in ultra hard, and they are serious! xD
It's nice knowing that they are top tier because I really thought I had to fight them just like any other enemy I had encountered and won after a bit yet these just were the first I had seen which were out of my league completely upon finding them.
@@FoxUnitNell the stormbird are harder than the thunderjaw imo.
Thunderjaws are piss easy if you know how to deal with them. Tearblast arrows to knock armor and their disc launchers off and then just melt them with their own weapons. Or expose their cores by knocking off armor there and then fire a few precision arrows in it to deal massive damage.
You can actually outrange Thunderjaws with the Sharpshot bow, so they'll never even fire back at you.
Ropecaster, and override or bomb them to death. Easy even on the hardest difficulty.
thunderjaws used to be the big bad, but they got a huge weakness on the side of its torso. if you blow off this armor plate thing on the side, itll reveal the orange glowing insides. just shoot at that with triple hardpoint arrows and youll deal 900 or more per hit
but it get rip of good lots is best to use it when in early game when on later game just use frost arrows and bow from froze wilds and put bunch of handing it be much easier
I have little problem with the Rockbreaker, and find the Fireclaw much more difficult.
Yeah, I think the Fireclaw, especially the boss at the end of Frozen Wilds, is a bigger pain in the butt than HADES itself
I loved the game so much that I played the DLC on the hardest difficulty,
and I tell you this- think of your heart' those bears will find you and ruin your day if you set them free. 😅
😭😭
There is no doughty in my that these machines are hard to take down, however I think that the Glinthawk should also be on this list.
One other point about the rock breaker. Use the tearblast arrows to knock off its four digging hands/paws. Once you do that, then it is unable to burrow underground anymore, and this causes it to become very slow on the ground and easy to kill.
I'd say the Rock breaker and all the machines in Frozen wilds.
Rockbreaker is easy. Dodge ro the side and blow up its under belly, twice. That'll take over half its health, the rest, explosives will take care of it
@@sandmaker47 yeah did that but it was a pain in the ass.
@@vineetdesai6396 you can also set a trap. they find you at sound, if you set a trap and throw a rock on the place of the trap they come up and die (if you made a good trap)
@@skrael. Wow, never knew you could do that.
Honestly stormbirds are the toughest for me. I always avoid them unless it's for a quest.
They are not that difficult....just use some tearblast arrows and some sling shot ammo (blast one) and it super easy to take down....the hardest one to take down is the fire claws
@@ivenpomosawmy6570 Fireclaws Aren't That Hard, Just Use Ropecaster, Tear, Frost, Shock. And Where You Need Ropecaster, Frost, Tear, Fire, Shock, Frost, Upgraded Shield Wevear Outfit And So Many Resources To Kill A Stormbird Where You Only Need 4 Weapons To Defeat Fireclaws
Stalkers. This machine is so fast. They attack the first time. But the second attack kills you. I hate this machines.
Just use tearblast arrows to take their cloaking plates off
Just freeze them. They will stay in place for a moment allowing u to hit them. Plus with damage multipliers that freeze elemental gave out, it's easier.
@@silkychan6099 It also coats them in the freeze effect, so even if you didn't destroy it they're still visible. It robs them of their mobility and makes their already fragile bodies extra vulnerable.
@@RicochetForce true, although all elementals attack would make the machine visible
okay but longlegs are like the easiest u just shoot a triple sharpshot arrow in the chest and it is dead
Thunderjaws are actually kinda easy to kill when prepared. With rockbreakers you just got to be patient and keep rolling away from them. The most annoying to fight for me is probably the stormbird, it being in the sky is super annoying and sometimes I can’t even hit it because of how far up it is; it’s lightning balls are also very annoying 😃 but the most costly machine to fight is probably fireclaws.
Snapmaws , rockbreaker , corruptor and deathbringer meta :
Set them on fire and attack on their weak points from distance . Rockbreaker especially won't follow you that much .
Longleg Meta: break the air sack and then either shoot it while it's down or hit it
Thunderjaw meta : the first two attacks at Lazer guns which you then can use and then take out the sonar tail and the upper part of head which has protection though which you have to remove
Stormbird meta: try keeping it in the ground to break the weak points
Stalker meta: electrify it , take out the invisibility if you want or just hit it with the stick
Fireclaw meta : take a vodka with you and pills. There are only six in the game if I'm not mistaken
Still remember the time I encountered my first Thunderjaw.
I was very low level at that time so I got absolutely wrecked by that thing.
But at the end of the game, taking down even the the most dangerous of machines feels like it’s a piece of cake.
Insanely hyped for the HFW!!!!⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️🔥🔥🔥🔥
The deathbringer. This machine is harder to kill when are at are getting higher. And they always made me die a lot of times. With also the bad guys.
I was low on ammo and I struggled so bad. My trick to beat them was to hide in the entrance and throw arrows at the guys until they all had been defeated and then I did the same with the deathbringer until I had ran out. After that I just wished to defeat them
Those fire claws were hell to fight in packs
For me, the Stormbird is strongest. It's the only machine I can't beat consistently in Ultra Hard, because you luck up the hole fight, get stuck in the terrain and then die to it's shock cannon.
I found the Deathbringer and the Thunderjaw to be the toughest machines to take down for me. As for Rockbreakers, I find it easier to take them down from a height like a cliff or a plateau, although it may take a while to kill them.
I haven't gotten to the DLC machines yet, but they do look like a damn challenge.

I remembered i was clearing a corrupted ground where you have to kill 2 corrupted RockBreakers when there was a Behemoth accompanied with a long leg doing a perimeter route and a snapmaw just chilling in the water..i was in a small cliff across where the snapmaw was, apparently they all don't like each other and it went all royal rumble, i was just shooting arrows at them from the small cliff.. one of the most amazing scenarios i've encountered... Guess who almost won though...
Please do tell
@@rabihfarhat3065 check the vid on my channel it's there 😅😅
I still aint do that zone 🤣🤣
Thunderjaw. It took me 3 hours to kill this machine.
Yeah it’s brutal
It even took me 5 days to kill it.
How? Once its guns are off its pretty tame, there are arrows specifically ro take off armor, use those and use them to shoot the big middle opening on its side, once both guns are empty only a few shots from any weapon will end it
I started to see it's sequence. I was starting to adapt on killing it.
Scorchers, stormbirds and rockbreakers gave me the most trouble, but, by far, scorchers are the most pain in the ass, fast and hits hard as hell, the daemoniac version is a nightmare
The best thing i ever did to myself was playing this game on story mode
Fuck the Rockbreaker! That thing sucks! I'd rather deal with 3 Thunderjaws at the same time
all of them have special ways to take down, but long legs are PAIN, and also corruptors when you are low level at the begining of the game. thunderjaws and stormbirds can be taken down easily with ropecasters, long legs run very fast and they throw aoe attacks and big ranged attacks you almost can't escape
One of my greatest games I played! The amazing story, beautiful graphics, awesome gameplay! This game will be nostalgic about my tweenies !
when I first encountered the fireclaw, I had troubles killing it. not because of the fact that it was on hard difficulty no, I had barely any wire for precision arrows. It really annoyed me but when I defeeated it I was relieved. Until I realized I had to kill 6 more of them.
The Thunderjaws were my personal favorite because of the disc launchers that you could use against them.
Aaaaah. Not This machine. Fireclaw. This machine it took me a long time kill 3 machines.
The two corrupted Rockbreakers should be on all the spots. That fight makes all the horror movies I have seen look like cartoons.
Those are easy to take out. There's a river bed. Stand on the other side. Their AI won't let them cross it, even under it. Since they're corrupted, shoot them with fire arrows and let them burn.
Yes the rockbreakers are so OP. Had a mission in Forbidden West where the boss was this guy and hated so much just his aggression and always popping out exactly where you are.
Can't wait to play this game at some point. Tbh I'd probably feel a bit guilty killing the robo animals. Honestly the designs are gorgeous.
Don't worry. They all try to kill you on site, so you shouldn't feel to bad about it.
Lol, yeah, they're quite impressive.😊
Here's some tips
1, Always aim for weak spots, they'll one shot most small machines and most medium machines
2, sealth kill every small and medium machines you see, you'll get easy exp and resources
3, the first town you go to after leaving the sacred lands has a vendor who sells the third best bows (lodge bows are the second best, the frozen wilds banuk bows are the best) , so save up your shards and buy the shadow bows first instead of the lower quality ones
@@VergilTheLegendaryDarkSlayer yeah thanks. Nearly 30 hours in with it and I already do two out of three with those. Tbh I should set traps more really it's just not my style though. Might have a go with the ropecaster but depending on who are what it is I'd honestly rather just either stealth kill or use a strong bow on them. Or someone explosive and heavy on damage which is always fun.
@@jacklomas4218 don't put damage coils on the sharpshot bow, you can blast every component off a thunderjaw while hidden and they'll never agro on you
If the tearblast arrow does any damage, they'll be alert from the initial damage then agro after the blast, I learnt that the hard way recently after not playing for a few months and got attacked by two thunderjaws at once
Took me 23 tries before I took down my first death bringer
I had a bad habit of not using my more protective stuff and used my stealth clothing/amour
And never used my special arrows 🤣🤣 thank god I finally learned my lesson
They dont cause me game overs, they cause me to go rampage on my bedroom
Halfway through the game I found a really handy way to beat rock breakers just shoot a bunch of the explosive tripcaster wires on the ground then shoot arrow, next to it then when it hears the arrows snap on the floor it’ll surge up and kill itself
That’s a similar tactic I used for the storm bird. Put down a bunch of explosive trip wires, and shoot at it until it flies up and does it’s pounce, it’ll crash right on em😄
bro fr? rockbreaker stronger than fireclaws like bro?
This game is the first one that made me feel old. The larger machines are hard enough, but when they throw like 10 machines at you at the same time it gets frustrating fast for me. How the hell do people have time to switch to the appropriate weapons for each beast while fighting off 10 different machines at once?
I remember the first few hours of the game I was like "are the robot ponys the only things I have to fight?"
Storm bird was by far most challenging for me since I didn’t even have the right weapons to fight it during the campaign
I find glinthawks harder, it's so damn easy to miss their small boxes
Tearing off weapons and such really makes fights easier. You can disable weapons, prevent rockbreakers from going under, remove the stalkers cloak generator, etc.
That scream from the shamans in the beginning of the frozen wilds gives me chills
Frost and Fire claws where far and away the hardest for me.
You said it
Tbh the easiest of the Giant mechs are snapmaw … way easier than all on list , just burn it and boom it’s dead
The most difficult is really the claw (frost/fire) it’s really a pain in the ass to deal with
I’m surprised someone actually made a video recently about this game
Daemonic scorchers and fireclaws they're so aggressive and have so much health.
10:00 Mojo here turned into Dr. Evil from Austin Powers the way he said “freaken laser beams”.😂
Many of you may consider this to be a "cheap" way to win in these fights. But it works for me since im not the best gamer out there. My tactic is to use the surroundings for my advantage. Usually, most of these machines are fought in areas with lots of tall grass and/or big rocks. I run around a bit until they lose sight of me, hide in the tall grass, then proceed to sneak attack or place traps. And keep repeating that same tactic. 😅👍 Of course, i don't do that every time, just when i know the machine will kill me easily. 😅
Rockbreakers are easy for me as it's one of my favourite machines in the game. I used to love playing around with the corrupted zone and let them have a scrap with the snapMaws nearby. After seeing Rockbreaker attacks on the snaps I then figured out its attacks and timing my dodging. Fireclaws are the hardest to defeat though for sure, it's a "WILD" Machine
I think this list is more popular
10-Stalker
9-Behemoth
8-Corruptor
7-Frostclaw
6-Stormbird
5-Scorcher
4-Rockbreaker
3-Thunderjaw
2-Deathbringer
1-Fireclaw
Am i right? Beacuse i dont see Snapmaw and Longleg in this list fr
I really hate thunderjaws and stormbirds, i fight two of them and get stuck in game over screen for over half hour, until i use ropecaster to one of them and focus only one, the other are not that hard
The deathbringers were the most challenging for me. I found myself stuck at those parts for days.
I almost forgot about that
Try a fireclaw lol
@@patrick._.betaman had less issues with them than I did the deathbringers.
@@bradkohl99 really? Dude deathbringers were one of the easiest bosses, imo the demonic fireclaw at the end of frozen wilds was a pain in the ass
Fire arrows to force them to open up the weak points. Max damage icerail sniper shot the exposed weak points.
Love this game, it's my favorite and can't wait for Forbidden West. The scorcher was a pain to deal with and is the only one I try to avoid
For scorchers, keep your distance. Take the fire potion first before engaging. Try to take out the pack at the back of scorchers first, preferably at distance. Instant shock elemental effect. Then take out the pack in front to prevent the floating mine attack. By then the scorchers would be wounded n u could finish them off easy.
The Rockbreaker is honestly quite easy once you figure it out. Dodge timing is quite easy to learn, and if you freeze it, it takes only seconds to kill if you target the exhaust vent.
I feel like the Sawtooth/Ravager should have made this list. They're pretty fast and persistent, and Ravagers are armed with laser cannons. In groups of two or three, they're even worse.
longlegs being on the same list as fireclaws is utterly insane
I fear no machine
But THAT thing (Rockbreaker)
It scares me
10:21 things’ basically a T-Rex/MechaGodzilla love child
The RockBreaker definitely my top most dangerous annoying machine to deal with, the fact it can hide underground and strike you below, & its fast & can barely dodge it while it's attacking you..
Helpful tip. If you can actually knock off the Rockbreaker's claws. You stop him from digging underground entirely. Both me and my best friend did it many times.
Scorchers and Fire claws. It sucked that scorchers weren't mountable, seeing aloy riding that thing would been awesome.
Scorcher, frostclaw, stormbird and rockbreakers.
Stalkers are menacing. Tough too. But after sometime they become weak.
The way your tone changes when explaining the machines strength and og weapons is legit af
On ultra hard, thunderjaws, stormbirds, scorchers, the final deathbringer boss, and fireclaws are the top 5 for me, even with the best loot, fireclaws, and the final deathbringer boss are a living nightmare on ultra hard
This game is genuinely a masterpiece.
Rock breaker for me… I was wondering the map a little too early and jumped into the mine area not knowing what I was encountering. One health jar, half a green bar and some grit and determination later… I FINALLY beat it but yea… the rest of the battles since I prepare for. Haha. I’m about to tackle the final fight I think. Almost done.
6:01
"The cobra chicken..." xD
Oh my, that's a new one! xD
The snapmaws. I don't even want to get next to them. Oh hell no. This machine needs a lot of distance. I don't want them into a group. No thank you.
I've had this in my library for a few months. Played it a LITTLE when I first got it, then forgot about it as newer games were out I was excited to play.
Picked it back up 2 days ago, lvl 56 and just now finished the main Frozen DLC. Off to more side missions!
This game is awesome
I suppose you are aware that a sequel is coming out Friday.
@@LordJaric whaaat?!!?
@@betz999 I take that as a no, lol.
@@LordJaric tell me more.
Taking down longleg is pretty easy because if you throw three hardpoint arrow on longleg's concussion sac at the same time can explode it and using shadow rattler thunder arrows can also kill it because it is its weakness.
For me fire claw was by far the hardest and do agree with your picks.
Glinthawks are easy to defeat if you have a tearblaster just tear them down till they explode and freeze effect takes over them they'll receive more dmg I just load my bow with 3 arrows and shoot them
Glinthawks are a real bane... I shoot them with a double shot flame arrow and it one shots them on hard mode
Honestly the thunderjaw isn't super hard to take down once you know where all its weak points are. Get rid of the disc launchers and the ravager type face guns and really it's only able to charge at you and shoot the lasers out of its mouth which are pretty easy to dodge given you aren't backed into a corner. For me I hate fighting scorchers because they're just so fast. Rockbreakers and stormbirds are also pretty tough because they're also both pretty fast and can also be hard to hit in the first place since they can go underground/fly. And while they're not hard to take down, I freaking HATE glinthawks. They're so annoying! I liked fighting the frostclaws during the trial with Aratak more than any encounter i've had with a glinthawk lol.
Not gonna lie, I did love this Game, but some of these machines really pissed me off. Hopefully the sequel has more manageable gameplay.
I stayed on top of that platform scared out of my mind for 20 minutes the first time I fought a rock breaker.
Fireclaws/frostclaws and scorchers are the toughest for me. Rockbreakers are hard until you remove its claws.
Long legs and stalkers are pretty annoying but their components are easy to remove with hard points arrows.
Thunderjaw is definitely challenging but it's also the most fun. Dodge it's attacks and remove its disc launchers. You could easily use it against them and it will be a pretty easy fight at the end.
I personally believe snapmaws are a piece of cake. You get the blaze canisters on its top out first and attack them with fire arrows. Their attacks aren't that diverse either. Honestly I feel saw-tooth/shell-walkers are harder
Storm bird is a pain too but I use shock-resist potion and keep on moving and they become more manageable.
Bro nothing in the world could prepare me for my first fight with a Daemonic Scorcher. I got my ass handed to me for like 15 mins bro. Very Hard & Ultra Hard by the way.
Daemonic Scorcher is some terrifying shit. Completely unrelenting asshole.
@@RicochetForce No cap.. I do my best to avoid them completely lol.
Rockbreakers are the hardest to engage directly; find a place to hide that they can't get to and they're real easy: freeze and damage until it's over. Fireclaws are consistently the hardest in the entire game. Truthfully, with the fully upgraded Banuk weapons, it's all easy to middling even on ultra hard; still lots of fun though. I have spent hours farming blaze with a smile on my face.
Rockbreakers are so tough... I fought one with ice weapons and I had over 600 heath and still can close to death multiple times. I also had three bars of medicine from herbs and used it all up.
Fireclaws are OP but I think they have an un fair advantage given that they are the only machines to be level 55, if other machines were higher level I think they would be more lethal than fireclaws, for example the daemonic Thunderjaw is level 40, if it were 50 I think it would be harder than the Fireclaw and if Rock Breakers were 50 or 55 it would be a no contest, just run.
It's not just level, it's moveset and availability/effectiveness of counter-measures. Thunderjaws can be handled by simply stripping their disc launchers and using them against it. It also has a weak spot you can expose with the launcher and really wreck them. Fireclaws are insanely tanky, fast as fuck for their size, their moves are a lot more dangerous, and there is no easy exploit to drop them.
i'm in the middle of playing this & i haven't encountered half of these things. now i'm scared to continue. thanks for the tips for whenever i run across them. or run away from.
Watchmojo:which machine cause the most game overs for you?
Me who somehow died multiple times to falling into a pit in the first cauldron in the game:🗿
4:55 why is aloy just completely unfazed? Shes like "oh dame, thats a shame. Wonder who did that"
I play this in ultra hard mode and I can say this list is pretty spots on.
I even agree with stalkers being here. In ultra hard, Stalkers laser attacks can 2 shot u.
My only complaint is that the snapmaw, longlegs and coruptors aren't that hard.
I can also make a case for the thunderjaw due to how predictable they can get but It makes sense to put it on the list.
P.s. in ultra hard mode some of your weapons and armor dont work as well as you think. (i.e. ancient armor doesn't make you invincible, instead you get an easily breakable 300hp soft-lock barrier.)
The fire claws can also pull out the ropes from a rope caster too.
Rockbreaker and stormbird and the bears ofcourse but a glinthawk gives me more challenge then a thunderjaw. A frozen thunderjaw vs a rattlers is the quickest to kill them. I used to farm one for mods all the time
I think the hardest base game creature is the Stormbird just because it's near impossible to hit anything important until they're grounded. Including TFW however, the Scorcher is an easy pick for the hardest enemy in the game. Just one of those things can almost one shot you with Nanoweave and anything on top of that is just hell to go against since they're so aggressive. I'm hoping Forbidden West allows you to lead hacked machines to locations around the map cause the whole override mechanic felt like a severely underutilized feature aside from occasionally hacking a mount
I'm curious, how did you all fare against the Behemoth and 2 Scorchers? I died about 3 times😂
Lots of ice arrows
Stalkers for me when I first started playing used to be hard but they are deathly alergic to electricity, it actually makes it easy to kill them.
Last night I finished the main story of the game and this got recommended to me just now (the morning after)
My top 10 list:
1. Fireclaw
2.deathbringer
3.thunderjaw
4.stormbird
5.rockbreaker
6.scorcher
7.frostclaw
8.behemoth
9.freeze/fire bellowback
10.stalker
Honorable mentions : corruptor / shellwalker/ ravanger / snapmaw
Frostbears are my personal nemesis as I’ve died to them more times that I can count especially on ultra hard
