Tips and Strategies

How to Beat the Thunderjaw

Horizon Zero Dawn - Fighting a Thunderjaw

The Thunderjaw has two Disc Launchers you can remove to disable one of its ranged combat abilities. You can also use these to deal heavy damage to the Thunderjaw itself and remove its armor. Breaking the rapid fire guns on its head is also important, since you want to remove any ranged attack the Thunderjaw has available. After breaking the weapons, you can focus on the machine's heart, which can be removed by firing Disc Launcher shots into the Thunderjaw's chest.

How to Beat a Stormbird

Horizon Zero Dawn - Exploit Stormbird Freeze Canisters.gif

Destroy the Stormbird’s Lightning Gun and jet engines by targeting them with Tearblast Arrows to both disable its projectiles and slow down its sweeping attacks. Restrain the Stormbird with the Ropecaster for an easier time aiming at specific components.
