When Courage Fails Tips and Strategies

Topple Trees With Remote Bombs

While making your way to the escape point, hordes of monsters will appear on all sides. Look for the marked trees on the map and use the Remote Bomb rune on them to keep the strong enemies from following you and complete the objective.

How to Beat the Blue Hinox

Use Stasis When It Rolls

The Blue Hinox mostly uses melee attacks that can be easily dodged. When it starts rolling, get to its sides to avoid the attack and use Stasis as prompted.

Hit the Hinox's frozen body with all you have to take away a large portion of its weak-point gauge. Deplete the gauge completely and perform a Weak-Point Smash for a faster battle.
