Tips and Strategies
Fighting the Assassins
Inflicting Elemental damage and aiming for their heads can help you take assassins out swiftly. Start by defeating the woman with the spear before focusing on the ranged attackers. She can only attack in melee range, but her strikes deal high damage, so be careful.
Your next target should be the man who is using a Blast Sling. He can throw Proximinity Mines on the field to limit your movements. He can also attack you with an axe, so try not to get too close to him.
Lastly, take down the last assassin who shoots Freeze Arrows. We suggest equipping armor with Freeze Resistance and Freeze Resistance Modifications to reduce the damage from this assassin's shots. You can also drink a Resist Freeze Potion to decrease the damage you take from his arrows.
Killing Frostclaws
The fastest, most efficient way to kill a Frostclaw is to destroy its Freeze Sacs on its shoulders and its Freeze Unit, covering its chest and belly. Destroying these components will inflict it and any surrounding enemies with Freeze, in this state it will receive more damage from any attack. You can destroy these components by using Hardpoint Arrows, Precision Arrows, or bombs from a Blast Sling.
Make sure to destroy the Freeze components one at a time to maximize the duration of the Freeze status effect.
Killing Daemonic Scrappers
You can defeat a Daemonic Scrapper quickly by hitting all of its weak spots, which are its Head, Radar, and the Power Cell on its back. You can also shoot the Power Cell with a Shock Arrow to stun it and perform a Critical Hit while it is immobilized.
Killing Daemonic Glinthawks
Focus on grounding the Glinthawks to damage and kill them more easily. You can burn them using Fire Arrows or tie them with a Ropecaster to bring them to the ground.
