Tips and Strategies

Killing a Glinthawk

Bring a Ropecaster with you to pin Glinthawks to the ground for the Sun's Climb portion of the quest. You can perform a Critical Hit on them once you ensnare them to kill them quickly.

You can also use Fire Arrows to ground them and perform a Critical Hit. They will also suffer continuous damage from the burning effect.

Killing a Snapmaw

The Snapmaws you will encounter have armor plates on their Blaze Canisters. Remove them using Tearblast Arrows to expose them for follow up attacks. You can shoot the Blaze Canisters with a Fire Arrow to cause an explosion and take out a large portion of the Snapmaw's HP.

Alternatively, you can target the Freeze Sac below their neck to cause a freezing explosion that will stop their movements for a short while. Use that window to hit their other weak spots. Enemies take bonus damage while frozen, so deal as much damage as possilbe while the enemy is in this state.
