My favorite part of slide is when she squats down in the middle of a fight instead of sliding and gets stomped
Ha ha ha - been there!
Haha that is indeed the best part 😂
WTB Auto sprint to you know, sprint after a crouch :P
my favourite part of this game is when she decides it's time to climb a small rock and sticks to the rock and gets stomped lol :(
A close tie with when she tries to climb Cauldron vents and suddenly is no longer a world class athlete and Alex Honnold level climber.
The intro is pure comedy gold 😭
Edit: forgot a word lol
Lol I think we've all been there 😂
I am a 50 year old man that loves playing the HZD games. Your insights into the game and its mechanics has helped me really understand what is happening and I therefore have enjoyed FW so much more than I first was. Your videos are well thought out and very well presented. You use your voice well. I am impressed at how you have put your channel together and it's growth.
Broooooo! You changed my play style completely! haha Your channel should be considered a public service and be protected as such! Thank you so much!
Haha thanks! Glad to hear you've found my content helpful 😁
I recommend to swap your sprint and slide/Crouch button. I use square to sprint and L3 to Crouch/slide since you will be spiriting more than sliding and it's easier to start running again after a slide with a square button.
Interesting! I actually haven't tried that. I'll have to give it a try. Thanks for sharing the tip!
I use the advanced controller and have copied the L3/R3 functions to the triggers on the bottom.
That way I never have to press the sticks. Works far better.
Sliding is such a fun mechanic when aloy doesn’t get stuck on things most of the time I don’t need to roll I just slide past a machine and it feels so badass to do. Sliding down steep slopes is also a lot of fun to do.
Totally! Yeah it's a lot of fun 😁
Ypu can also slide toward an unsuspecting ennemy and silent strike it right after it notices you. Peak high risk/high reward gameplay.
I'm definitely going to need to practice this. It is so aggravating when I slide during combat and end up crouching. Truly thankful for these tips Arktix!
Hey thanks Baltazar! 😁 Yeah it’s definitely aggravating lol. Hopefully these tips help!
You can usually go make a coffee whilst you wait for Aloy to get up ☕️
Great vid as always! Loving your home studio setup btw 👌
Hey Moses! Lol yes, you can 😂 Glad you like the studio 😁 Hope you're doing well my friend!
@ArktixOfficial Yes, very well, thank you! To you as well 🤜🤛
First off, intro is amazing XD
It does feel like that sometimes, getting whacked around like a ping pong ball.
One thing I noticed, though, is that when talking about Evader, you didn’t mention one little thing that I am personally a big fan of. You probably know where I’m going with this, but food gets you evader too!
This is lighthearted, DW XD, I’ll take any chance to talk about food though!
Thanks Plusle! And yes great point, you can get Evader points from food as well 🥙😁 I know you always jump on an opportunity to talk about food XD
I've been playing for a while, and just found your channel! Improved my hunting skills for sure! It's also cool that I figured the slide roll through trial and error because it really was the fastest way to get around pre-flying mount. It's also amazing how relatively intuitive all these techniques are.
Hi! Glad you found my channel and are finding my content helpful 😁 Nice work figuring out the slide dodge on your own!
Your videos are the best. I love the way you present the information, everything’s quality, and the vibe is great. Thank you!
Thank you! Glad you find my content to be good quality and enjoy the vibe 😁 Hope you find these tips helpful!
Excellent video. Did not think I would learn something new but as usual you have actually found an improvement for everyone and presented it flawlessly. Thank you!
Hey thanks! Glad you were able to learn something! 😁
Great vid. Precise and informative with no fluff, love it ❤️
Thanks! Glad you found this to be good quality 😁
Bro I could not figure out how to sprint after the fact and was always stuck doing that stupid crouch walk thank you so much!
Awesome! Glad this helped you out 😁 Yeah getting stuck crouched is super annoying 😂
Once again coming to teach something new and making learn very much about horizon. Your videos are helping getting redy for the time i'll do ultrahard. Thanks man, you are truely a master for me.
Hey thanks! Glad you found this helpful 😁 I wish you the best on your ultra hard adventure!
Thank you Arktix, this is very helpful :)
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful 😁
Studio setup is 👌🏻🤘🏻! Nice vid, btw. Thanks for more excellent content, bro!
Hey thanks! 🤜🤛 Glad you like the studio and vid 😁
Man I've learned a lot from you since I started playing Horizon. By now I'm sitting at 3rd place for HFW Burning shores ultra hard speedrun in the leaderboards, and I'm happy to say that I'm a serious contender for the world record. Your video of the new duplication glitch (and more specifically the super glide glitch and the glide jump technique ) was specially useful to achieve that, so I just want to express my gratitud and appreciation for you work. Thanks a lot man, and keep it up.
Congratulations!
Hey thanks! Glad to hear you've found my content helpful 😁 And congrats on your speedrun! That's awesome!
Damn another great vid my man 👍
Thank you! 🙏
Your stuff has helped me a lot. From finding coils and weaves, to combat training. I don't know if you remember but I had mentioned I had a hard time with the slide-roll combo. I've gotten much better, but I still have my hiccups. :)
Awesome! Glad to hear you've found my content helpful 😁 I'm sorry I don't remember the specific comment, but I hope you could pick up some extra tips too!
@@ArktixOfficial No Problem. You get a lot of comments. It's awesome you look at them. ;)
Thank you, i haven't started playing Forbidden West yet, just got to finish Ghost of Tsushima first, but your guides and explanations are a great preperation und definetly will be helpful.
Especially those short "break down" videos are quite helpful, all information you need packed in a short tutorial, just great content.
Hey thanks! Glad you're finding my videos helpful to prep for Forbidden West! Glad you like this shorter format, too. I'm planning to do more like this 👍🏼 Hope you enjoy the game when you get to it!
As always very informative
Thanks! Glad you found it informative 😁
very helpful video. thank you
Hey thanks! Glad to hear you found it helpful. Merry Christmas! 🎄
This may be long, sorry. As always,,, love the vids, thank you. Ok, this is something I find useful at times, very situational maybe, but I noticed that when you slide, if you jump, when you land you will be back to sprint. I don't use auto sprint. So I tried to slide the second I landed from the jump. It works great! Slide, jump, slide, jump. It seems to give you the fastest slide you can get, and the interesting part is that you can change your direction in air and slide that way when you land. Even a complete 180. You do have the jumps hang time as a down side but for smaller machines, the jump can act as a dodge.
Side note, Tide's reach, raiders in tower. I did a glide in, went to hit a smoke bomb to give me time to bolt blast the first guy, accidentally had it set to mount. Imagine my surprise when a pissed off fire clawstrider showed up. Now I always land at the chest and watch the fun!
Thanks! And nice! Yeah I've played around with that jump-slide as well. Considered adding it in this video, but I think it's more niche and more difficult to do, so I decided not to because I didn't want to distract/confuse people, but it's definitely a nice trick!
Thank you for your help
Another nice thing about the slide dodge roll is that you can change directions by sliding in one direction and then rolling in another, which is especially useful against multiple enemies attacking you.
I wish I would have seen this video prior to my 1st play through. It would have saved me so many headaches. Thank you for posting!!
Thanks! Maybe you can use these tips for a future playthrough!
@@ArktixOfficial Absolutely!!
Another great video Arktix! I always recommend your channel to anyone I know who's about to start playing HFW. I hope you keep sliding on into success on UA-cam & dodge all the haters. 😉😂
Hey Sonny! Good to hear from you 😁 Hope you're doing well. Haha good one 😂 Thanks for recommending my channel to people! I appreciate it! 🙏🏼 Take care brother! 🤜🤛
so much to learn just stared playing this game yesterday love your page ty
Hey thanks! Hope you’re enjoy the game and picking up some tips from my vids! 😁
I missed the horizon contest
Thanks for bringing it back ❤
Glad you're happy to see it back 😁 I'll always come back to Horizon between other game releases 🏹❤️
I don't really know how to put it, but you've inspired me to attempt HFW content, I've been watching your videos for quite a while now and wanted to try content creation for myself
👍
Awesome! I love to hear that 😁 Have fun making your own content!
Thanks for the help I knew I wasn't trippin when I prefer the dodging in the first game and onthis game I felt I was getting hit all the time.
thanks arktix know i i know how to get out of that frustrating crouch after sliding : )
No problem! Glad you found that tip helpful 😁
Hey! What a cool backlight! It feels like you are from a dream!
Haha thanks! 😂 Glad you like it 😁
Love the content keep up the good work
Thank you! 😁🙏🏼
Great job Chief!!
Thanks Jerri! 😁
Thank you! Great tip. :)
You're very welcome! Glad you found it helpful 😁
Awesome video as always! ❤️👍
Thanks! Glad you liked it 😁
Good video as always, good content 👌 where can I get the black and green skin for the quen comander outfit?
Thanks! And the green dye for Queen outfits should be unlocked by default. You just need to go to a dyer.
yup. this is also very useful if you like to play with traps. sliding or dodging into a trap (except blast traps) will trigger it without hurting Aloy because of the invincibility frames. you can do this if you want to set off a trap without stepping back to shoot it then following up with combos with your warrior bow. I usually run-slide towards the trap for faster approach then dodging into the trap to set it off.
Great point! Yeah sliding and dodging through traps is pretty fun 😁
Great video as always. Have a question for you, Phantom Liberty DLC is coming to Cyberpunk... Do you plan on picking up the game considering everyone's saying it'll be a completely different game.
Thanks! I'm considering picking up Cyberpunk with Phantom Liberty, but it's quite a big game to get into and I'm not sure if it's my type of game. I think I'll wait to see what people say about Phantom Liberty first, but it's sounding like it will be good.
Proud of myself for having already learned all these tips on my own
You can also chain the regular Dodge immediately out of the slide, wasting no time and, when mastered, extending the invulnerability frames to 25.
I used the sprint slide sprint in HZD and just carried it over to HFW. I use it all the time but I didn't know ot gives you so many advantages.
Nice! Yeah it does have quite a few advantages.
From a mention in one of your earlier vids, my normal mode of foot travel is sprint-slide-roll - so much better than Aloys general sprint speed! Definitely takes some finesse in the heat of battle to not get stuck in a crouch though... As a fellow auto-sprinter, I'd much rather finish with square than a stick press (just hitting fwd on the stick to auto sprint doesn't bring her out of crouch unfortunately), as avoiding that is my whole motivation for auto setting
The beginning is how I feel about about pain and suffering
Awesome video
Thanks! Hope you find it helpful 😁
@@ArktixOfficial I got the Platinum trophy an year ago but I can come back to try New Game+ on UltraHard difficulty and your guides will be very helpful
@@Stratega1982 Glad to hear that! Enjoy NG+!
I feel like the DualSense Edge controller with the back buttons (especially the half-dome ones) would help out with the sprint activation. Using the left back button instead of L3.
You should make a critique video about forbidden west and also what should improve in future horizon game as you are one of the few people who knows horizon world very well!! Like pros and cons of forbidden west and improvement in future title that could be made.
Thanks for the suggestion! I actually have a video planned that will be pretty similar to this. The concept is “Things Changes/Fixes would make Forbidden West Perfect”, or something like that. Basically, run through all the things I’d love to see changed, fixed, or added to H3 in the future.
@@ArktixOfficial ohh that's great!!
Glad we think alike! 🙂
You re very good.
Thank you! Hope you found this helpful.
i thought the CC at the beginning was some kind of joke subtitle but i realized it's the entire video lol i read everything before actually watching the video btw
also AUTORUN FTW. it's the QoL that makes it extra difficult for me to go back to ZD lol
Oh weird lol. I didn't notice that. Thanks for point that out! It should be fixed now. And yes, the QoL improvements like auto-run do make it hard to go back to HZD lol. Auto-Pickup and no pickup animations is the big on for me!
😁 ~1000 hours in the game and you still make me learn new things. 🤦♂
Thanks ArkTix. So what are your top 5 weapons and how do you coil them?
I'm going to break down my current loadout in my next video! Don't want to spoil the surprise 😉
@@ArktixOfficial Looking forward to it.
I saw everyone say to press square to not get stuck crouching. But I found it easier to just press L3.
“Be a man and i-frame your dodge rolls” -every souls player who tries this game
Arktix you can get quick draw on sharpshot bows by sliding btw I've said this multiple of times you slide trigger concentration and draw the bow rlly fast but it has to be the sec you slide
Plz respond it's a rlly good tip
Plz use my tip in a vid
Yup I've noticed that as well! It's a pretty good trick. If I do another advanced combat tips video I'll definitely include it in that 👍🏼
Thank you
I've been asking you to do it in the discord and in other vids I thought you didn't know ot
This channel is so excellent. The tutorials and guides are my go to, however, I'm disappointed at the changes to movement, control and character progression that they made to this game. Rather than feel like an extension to zero dawn, at times it feels completely different game, just with dome carry over story...
Thanks! And yeah, they did change a lot. Personally, I like most of the changes, but there are some frustrating ones, like the lack of dodge prowess and hunter reflexes when jumping. Hopefully my content like this helps you adjust to Forbidden West!
@@ArktixOfficial Wow, thank you for taking the time to reply.
If I'm honest, if I'd not found your channel I may have just passed on the game. As you say, the removal of some of the skills from the skills tree is unfathomable. For me, I really enjoyed the stealth build in ZD (although I maxed out the trees long before the end game) so losing the ability to whistle to attract enemies, the stealth indicator, strike from below etc just made no sense.
I get that with a new game carry over from the previous game can affect balance but when I'd invested time in 100% completion, to find that at the start of the new game, Aloy had not only forgotten to pack all the awesome gear I'd gathered, but had forgotten some basic skills like the aforementioned ones and even what enemies looked like (rescanning everything) and how to override them, I felt very disenfranchised. Like I say, I get that it's a new game, with potential new to the franchise players but I would have appreciated some meaningful carryover of save data, after all, a new game plus is effectively that within the game, perhaps with a difficulty scaling applied and new enhanced skills for the new weapons.... I almost wish they'd used a different protagonist as the excuse for starting from scratch, but that would have presented it's own difficulties with story arch.
But hey, I'm just mouthing off, I don't get paid to make those decisions and the game has undoubtedly been a success, so what do I know? 😄
Anyway, thanks for the time and attention you've put into these invaluable guides. I'm currently maxed at lv50 and have switched to easy to harvest the parts for the legendary kit (such a ball ache) before completing the final mission. I feel I'm missing a few side missions as I've not maxed the skill trees and R1 abilities but I've got all those I care about. I've not done all the races or Strike games so that might be the missing points?
I hope you get some recognition by Gorilla for this work you've done. Way better than the Prima guides of old.
@@TheTruthHz Strike From Above/Below still exists in the game, but they've been adjusted so it only works on unaware/suspicious enemies so you can no longer use them in active combat like in HZD
@@jeffreychinn609 I've seen the strike from above prompt when gliding and less frequently when standing on an edge but I've not once seen the strike from below prompt. In HZD you were able to stealthily climb something to the transition point and as the target approached that point you could strike. I've tried in vain to recreate this in HFW. What's the trick? You do you maintain stealth if you can see when you're not visible?
@@TheTruthHz Tbh, it's so niche that the only time I've ever seen that animation was in Honest Cake's video showing every takedown animation vs humans
Hi Arktix, I would like to ask about the spreadsheet. In the sheet it says that two each of the legendary instant burning chance and legendary instant corroding chance coils can be bought from merchants, but the subsequent columns say that there is only one each you can buy from merchants. is this a mistake? or am I missing something?
Problem with this is if you have auto sprint on it doesnt cancel the crouch after sliding, meaning you're open to an attack when enemies have already spotted you. Not a problem if you dont use auto sprint, but us folks who dont want to go through controllers that quick by breaking the L3 button kinda have to spam square after a slide and hope she stands back up to run >.
Maybe I didn’t make it clear in the video, but I play with auto-sprint on 100% of the time. This absolutely works with auto-sprint on. I recorded all clips for the video with auto-sprint on. Auto-sprint will not make you sprint out of a crouch. So, yes, you will need to click L3 as if you don’t have auto-sprint on. If you’re not used to doing that, this might take some getting used to, but it does work.
The only problem is sometimes I didn’t manage to sprint and i will end up crouching
Interesting, but not much use yet. Still waiting for the PC version IF there will be, a PC version? AND if, I live that long?
Thanks. 🙂
Glad you liked this even though you're waiting for PC! There WILL be a PC release. No announcement yet, but they're definitely working on it. I'm hoping for a release this holiday season, but it may happen in 2024.
Ngl I been slide dodging since zero dawn 😭😂
Yeah it works in HZD as well. A lot of people still don’t know about it though!
0:23... Who felt uno reversed how robots do us dirty with our traps
i absolutely hate how aloy stays crouched after sliding and i need to uncrouch again
Yeah it can definitely be frustrating. Not sure if you caught it in the video, but I explain how to manage that.
Yeah I just walked like this
Edit: Without a doge
Aloy vs 4 machines with dodge=death
Welp
About time I get back to Horizon
Time to see what kinda stupidity I can pull off again
Too bad Kotallo didn't use a slide dodge at Barren Light
😂 lol if only he knew...
Seriously you need to turn auto sprint on, turn it off may broke your analog stick like mine, now its drifting left 😢
Any news on Horizon 3??
Unfortunately, not yet.
I thought you made a dodge video already....
I covered it briefly in another video, but I wanted to break it down since I was getting questions on how to do it properly.
It's to bad they messed up with the PC controls and you can't auto run like you can on controller. Really messes up this style of slide dodges.
Actually, you can still do this on keyboard and mouse. You still have a crouch and sprint button, so it’s basically the same as controller. Maybe a little trickier depending on what keys you bind for those.
@@ArktixOfficial It's not really the same though because there's no auto-sprint on keyboard and mouse. So it requires constant manual reactivation after nearly every action.
@@NeillSmith There is toggle sprint though, which is all you need. I mean, I agree it's a bit trickier on keyboard (I have done it a.bunch), but it's still doable. You just use your crouch key to slide and then have a key mapped to toggle sprint. You don't need to hold a key to sprint.
HFW dodging is defo frustrating, it can make the combat feel cheap and unfun.
It can definitely be frustrating. Hopefully you found these tips helpful!
the rock breaker AOE is the worse
It really is lol
Word, I hate those freaking things
Someone tell me if he ever did a face reveal
I've used a facecam in a few other videos so far. And on my streams.

No no no. Don’t do that with the title. You get filtered in with all the garbage that does that. Please I love your content.
Do what? Use emoji?
How to make a dodge guide without calling it a dodge guide.
Is this guide-seption now?
lol 😂 Had to come up with something more interesting than "How to Dodge Correctly". I don't think people would be too interested in clicking on something like that!
I stopped playing and I was just at the beginning. The combat in this game is just far too infuriating for me to enjoy. It's like they buffed all the bad stuff and nerfed all the good stuff from the first game. I guess I will also skip the new GoW as I read it basically follows the same pattern.
There is no dodge in HFW, just a slide and a roll. And just because there's an option to slide doesn't mean the roll should be useless garbage.
Yeah I suppose if you want to stick with the perfect terminology, technically there is no "dodge", just a roll. And the roll is certainly useful. Never said it was useless garbage.
Yeah no, this still sucks. I want my long dodge back. I can only pray someone mods it back into the game when it gets ported to PC
Ooo…I’ll definitely be installing that mod 👌🏼
First time I seen your face.. why did you hide all this glory all this time?
Haha thanks 😁😂 Planning to incorporate the facecam moving forward! 👍🏼
I’ve now mostly passed on from HFW because if don’t everything in the game and there is really much to do I also have completely finished Elden ring I’ve done all the achievements but for Elden ring I’m waiting for Shadow of the erdtree now I’m playing Diablo 4
Guerrilla shouldn’t have taken out Dodge Prowess as the game does not have a Poise system like Dark Souls. You get knocked down from any attack which is sad. This is bad game design.
I'm surprised people are even still making content for this game. It's like old news now.
Not for me - it took me a while to get a PS5, and I’m on my first playthrough. In any case, lots of us play through games more than once, always good to learn something new! I love this channel.
@@landonewts fair enough
Its over bro nobody playing HFW anymore. Stop making video. 🛑
And yet, here you are, watching it...🙃
@@ArktixOfficial Not watching, visited to leave comment only.
i still play it so youre wrong about that
i'm guessing you cant lock on targets hey?
Yeah, no target lock.
