Horizon Zero Dawn - S Tier Icon Weapon Class Tier Reason
The Improved Icerail offers the best offensive capabilities for its weapons class. It is easily one of the best weapons in the game. Getting this weapon as early as you can is highly recommended!

How to Get Improved Icerail

You can upgrade your Banuk Icerail by completing the Geared Up: Icerail side quest in the Frozen Wilds.

How to Use Improved Icerail

Icethrower

Horizon Zero Dawn - Icethrower Chillwater
(x15)

This ammo may not deal damage, but will be very effective against Daemonic Machines in the Frozen Wilds DLC. With its high Freeze severity, most enemies will be left frozen in their tracks.

Ice Cannon

Horizon Zero Dawn - Ice Cannon Chillwater
(x15)
Metal Shards
(x100)

This fires a single shot of very sharp ice. We highly recommend using this against large Daemonic Machines as they are vulnerable against Freeze attacks.
