Tips and Strategies

Take on the Enemies One by One

Horizon Forbidden West - Deal with the Enemies One by One.png
When you climb to the top of the cliff, you'll encounter several Machines roaming. It is highly suggested to deal with these Machines one by one through stealth.

In instances where stealth fails, a useful tactic to dealing with multiple agressive enemies at once is to bait them all into attacking simultaneously before rolling out of the way of attacks. Otherwise, an arrow to the humps on their back plus to their eye socket will allow you to cause massive damage against them.
