Tips and Strategies

Shoot Bristleback Acid Canisters with Acid Arrows

Horizon Forbidden West - Acid Arrows
Cause an acid explosion and take out multiple enemy machines and humans by hitting the Acid Canisters of the Bristlebacks with Acid Arrows to deal Acid Damage. You can press the R3 button to slow down time and have more time to aim at them.

Learn Warrior Skills

Horizon Forbidden West - The Embassy - Upgrade Warrior Skills
The battles with the Rebels and Grudda will require direct combat, so you're best off mastering some melee skills for the battle. Consider the Resonator Blast and Block Breaker skills.

Aim for the Head

All the rebels don't have any helmets on except for Grudda. Shoot their heads with arrows to deal increased damage and take them out fast. Slowing down time will also help you hit their heads more accurately.
