How to Use Carja Hunter Bow

Hunter Arrow

Horizon Zero Dawn - Hunter Arrow Ridge-Wood
(x2)
Metal Shards
(x1)

This arrow type will be your staple ammo until you can unlock better arrows like the Hardpoint or Precision Arrow. These arrows deal low damage and low tear upon impact. For maximum effectiveness, attach some Damage coils and aim at enemy weakspots.

Fire Arrow

Horizon Zero Dawn - Fire Arrow Ridge-Wood
(x2)
Metal Shards
(x5)
Blaze
(x3)

This arrow is most effective against Corrupted Machines and machines with Fire vulnerablity. Alternatively, you can also set Blaze canisters off with a good shot. Other than that, this ammo type will mostly be for backup when you run out of your other damage type arrows.
