      I just started this game on Normal difficulty and it feels like I am playing on very hard with how the machines now auto hit you and change direction mid air to hit me if I run or dodge.

      @Arktix I think you forgot to mention that when you're playing below Ultra Hard, there is an option to raise the amount of loot and/or chance of dropping the loot from machines you take down, which become unavailable for Ultra Hard.
      In the early-mid game main missions there are some "boss" machines that can be teared down for very important parts and they have a low % chance of dropping those if you're in Very Hard.
      This is also extremely useful in the late game, as you require a LOT of farming to get materials to upgrade your weapons and armor to MAX and tear those machine parts from endgame mobs take some time.
      While i did enjoy the challenge to get those materials off the machines without destroying them while on Very hard, it did become a boring chore after I learned the movesets and how to do it well, mainly because I was using my limited playtime to farm something I felt like I mastered (mastered enough for me, mind you, not comparing to anyone)
      Forbidden West was one of my first games to platinum after i got a PS5 and I enjoyed it a lot, so watching your channel brings me a lot of nostalgic feelings. Keep up the good work!

    Admittedly I was playing on Normal, but I did all the Hunting Grounds as I found them on my first playthrough and didn't have too much of a problem. I don't know if it's just me, but I actually found the FW Hunting Grounds significantly easier than the ZD ones. Maybe it's just because I was much more experienced on my first playthrough of FW versus my first playthrough of ZD, but a lot of the Hunting Ground trials in ZD took me multiple tries to get the top rank on, whereas in FW I beat most of them with the top rank on my first try.

    • @kacey4k

    • @ArktixOfficial

      I mostly play on ultra hard, which is where the hunting grounds are very difficult and not worth your time. As I mentioned in the video, they do not give XP or skill points, so it's not really worth doing them early on UH. On lower difficulties, sure, they're much easier and I would agree many of them are easier than ZD hunting grounds.

    Cool tips as always! :)
    Let me add some in-game cheats:
    1. Crafting can be accelerated by setting the Wheel Time delay (or what, sorry, re-translation) to the maximum.
    2. To improve gears, we sometimes have to farm resources from big Apex machines. If you struggle with it (especially in early-game), you can change the difficulty to Story Mode, do the fights, then change it back to your difficulty level.
    3. … unless you started in Story Mode. It makes sense, too, because you can get the story as a whole, then taking the rest of the contents after-story.
    4. BUT don't forget to activate the side quests as you see the green ! marks. There's a soldier in a cell in Barren Light waiting for his execution and if you don't activate it then he'll die because you didn't save him. Half the sidequest's content gets lost for you.

    I did Ultra Hard for my first playthrough and I managed to beat it and the DLC, but I definitely wouldn't recommend it. It's pretty doable for the most part, but farming for gear progression gets incredibly tedious late game because you have to farm Apex machine hearts and other stuff from very difficult machines and you have to do it with Purple gear because your Legendary gear isn't upgraded yet. Every fight to get one rare crafting part will be a struggle where you have to use all of your resources just to take down one machine to get one component that you need and sonce Apex machines don't spawn every tome, you migjt jave to save and reload a bunch of times if you die to get another one to spawn. Thankfully, it's actually possible to beat the entore sypry on Ultra Hard with mostly purple rarity gear which is easoer to upgrade and you can do a NG+ on a lower difficulty to farm all the components you need for legendary gear before doing ANOTHER NG+ to go back and stomp all the Ultra Hard machines that were a struggle before.

    First HG emphasizes environmental traps and strategies for using them. These are ZD elements, so the HG is sort of a refresher. Second HG emphasizes pullcaster+shieldwing technique and smoke bomb use. These are newish elements, and I argue, some of the new game elements don’t cement until forced to try them, so this HG is important if you’re underutilizing launch and smoke bombs.

    Hey Arktix,
    I know it's unrelated but I got an interesting suggestions that you could communicate to the developers for the third Horizon game:
    Make the main story a lot longer as the current amount of main quests is so short that some players like myself can't get enough of this masterpiece of a game. Also, while the side content in HFW was good, I'd just wish they make them less repetitive and more engaging.
    -Introduce underwater combat with special weapons and unique mechanics. I think that if they improved upon Zero Dawn by allowing us to dive, they could improve once again by allowing us to fight machines and humans underwater. They could introduce ranged, melee and stealth weapons and combat mechanics to the underwater combat. This would be epic but also, not being able to fight underwater in HFW is kinda frustrating when you're trying to explore certain parts of the map so that's a bonus

    The 1 thing that makes FW better than ZD, is that you got the stash box that never seems to run out of space so you can put in all outfits and wepons you don't use or rarely use so your inventory is more manageable. Just be sure to return to it after using a lot of heath herbs or ammo, assuming you grab resources even if you are full so you can quickly restock.
    It is also worth noting that it can be cheaper resource wise to build your ammo at the workbench that takes 1/2 the ammount it does when you make it in the wheel so it's worth building ammo when you vist your stash box.

  • @Arkayjiya
    @Arkayjiya 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I agree with you on Ultra Hard. I chose Very Hard and I don't regret it one bit, it feels similar to my ultra hard from scratch HZD playthrough beside for the ungodly amount of grind. The farming required to upgrade stuff, especially legendary stuff (plus the components you need to save for NG+ weapons) is too insane even for very hard imo. There's no way I'm doing it in UH, especially with circulators, that aren't guaranteed to drop. I killed 8 Rockbreakers before I got my first Rockbreaker circulator and that's just one example. Do you know what the odds of not dropping a circulator for 7 rockbreakers are? 1 in 4500 for fuck's sake. Imagine if I got that luck in Ultra Hard, I'd be pulling my own hair. Nah, farming is an automatic difficulty drop to story mode because I'm not playing a freaking MMO here. I'm here to have fun, and killing 15 rockbreakers in a row to upgrade a legendary weapon once is not my idea of a good time.
    If not for the farming issue, I'd totally play a "from scratch Ultra Hard playthrough" and I might still do it one day (with a very specific build in mind, and upgrading only what I need most so that I don't have to spend days farming) but only when I'll know the game enough to make a plan that doesn't require 50 hours of grind. First playthrough though? Very Hard for the game, Story Mode for the farm.

    Playing Ultra Hard from scratch and what you've said is on point. YOU WILL DIE from one shots early on (and even on level 50+). Boss fights can be tricky as well. I tried a high level cauldron under-levelled (I don't know what I was thinking) and spent three days just trying to kill the slitherfang boss with 3 medium potions (zero berries) just because I thought the clamberjaws were the bosses given how difficult it was to deal with them.

    Got a question for you @Arktix: I can't seem to find a straight answer anywhere. I know coils/weaves can be legitimately duplicated with additional playthroughs. What about weapons? If I have the Carja's Bane, for instance, will new game + offer me a second Carja's Bane?

      Good question. No, the game hard locks you into 1 copy of weapons and outfits no matter how many playthroughs you do. I’m sure there’s a PC mod that would allow you to get multiple, but there’s no native way to do it.

      His video will obviously be great, but if you want a quick tip: Find a long expanse of beach, and run up and down it whacking crustaceans with the spear (wearing a stealth outfit helps, but isn't absolutely necessary). If the beach is long enough, they'll respawn by the time you finish going one way. Collect and sell the remains. (In early versions when the game first came out, animal parts didn't sell for much, but one of the updates over the years vastly increased how much they sell for.)
      You can also use arrows for that, the cheapest ones you have, but whacking them with the spear is satisfying *and* doesn't use any resources other than your time.

    I actually somewhat enjoyed machine strike at times, but for those that don't.... It's all about the Slaughterspine. Get 2 Slaughterspine circulators, and you will wreck everybody. It is broken how easy it is to win with just this one piece. I wouldn't buy any other pieces, save your resources and just get the wrecking ball if you are frustrated with some of the opponents.

    • @dirrdevil
      @dirrdevil 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      All the Machine Strike guides recommend Fireclaws and flying units over Slaughterspines. Sure, you can win with lots of different pieces and combos, but if you have to give a singular one size fits all strategy, then use a Fireclaw.

    • @rustysreality1091
      @rustysreality1091 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@dirrdevil I think if you were to ask the people who have over 2k hours into the game., they will disagree.. Regardless of what the "guide" says. The slaughterspine wrecks everything. On top of being the best bank for your buck as far as hitpoints and damage dealt goes. You could put your best list of monsters together and 9 out 10 times I would win with the Slaughter. It's been thoroughly tested. But as a caveat, if you found a list that works for you, run with it. I won't dissuade you from using the monsters you want to use to beat the PVE machine strike sites. The Slaughterspine is just the cheat code.

    minor spoilers ahead. i did do ultra hard on my first playtrough. i had like 370 hours on ZD so thaught i was ready... well i was, kinda but it was the true dark souls run. basically beiing one hit on anything for half the playtrough. i am the person to do a lot of sidequests and i did do a lot before the big mission series after getting the base. i was basically leveling harder than the reccomended levels wich helped me, well not die one hit. it is important to study the movements and attack patterns so you can allways be able to dodge them. then you can find gaps to actually damage the machines without getting hit. scanning and knowing wich machines have wich weak points and canisters helps. good things are frost and spark canisters to wombo combo neirly any machine to the shadow realm. something very important tho is to read. i had gotten a shit ton of skill points from the side quests but didnt know what to do with them. if i had read the skill tree, id have known that there are better things than just dumping on stealth and stocking points. things like more berries and new melee combos for the pits. allso, do the contracts when you can. they wherent that hard, just time consuming. they give good loot and if you do all of them a decent armour set wich can carry trough the game. armour is not THAT important, i just basically rocked the basic nora outfit wich gave stealth (the one aloy get at the very start of ZD)

    I never played Zero Dawn or Forbidden West (still on my first playthrough with that one) on anything else but Ultra Hard; really love how tense and challenging combat is one Ultra Hard. During my first playthrough of Zero Dawn, I used the stealth outfit with nothing but extra stealth weaves, so I had no defense whatsoever, yet I somehow made it through both the base game and the Frozen Wilds expansion. On my second playthrough, I used a more defensive outfit and played more aggressively.
    The extra difficulty in FW is definitely noticeable. Even a pack of low level Scroungers, Burrowers or Scrappers can be very tough on Ultra Hard. Love it though.
    I recently played FW at a friend's on Easy mode and fought a Thunderjaw. I was shocked at how easy that was... The machine barely attacked me and I killed it in under a minute. Not looking down on Easy mode btw, anyone should play however they want:)

    I think The Hunting Grounds would be much better if they were like Ikrie's Challenge from the Frozen Wilds DLC in Zero Dawn, instead of being timed events.
    In Zero Dawn, I didn't bother trying to improve my times on the Spurflints and Spearshafts Hunting Grounds (The Stealth and Control trials respectively) because the kind of thing you're asked to do isn't really meant to be done in a rush. I also didn't even bother doing the Werak Chieftain Trial in The Frozen Wilds.
    At least in Forbidden West, you do have more places throughout the world where you find things done in the Hunting Trials (In HZD you literally had like 3 places in the entire map with environment traps that you could use on machines outside of the grounds which made the logpile trial pretty pointless, for example) but they're still the Horizon equivalent of Gran Turismo License tests.
    Then there's the Arena, which takes what's bad in the Hunting Grounds and makes it worse (at least the Hunting Grounds don't cost you shards aside from your ammo)

    fire may have been nerfed but freeze took it's place because holy shit, if you get a strong enough freeze arrow, even the lapras one becomes almost child's play lol

    I did ultra hard on my first playthrough, it was so hard but very worth it.

    Currently 200+ oddish hours on my 1st play through. Been taking my time with it, doing absolutely everything and enduring all hardships. Finally about to platinum/100% the whole game and I'll be starting the dlc soon. Granted I play other games as well but boy it is a challenge on the hardest difficulty

    There is a better spot for Berries at the tall neck near tides reach but there is stalkers there you can get like 100 berries there

    One thing I'm missing is the arrows in Zero Dawn that could be used to turn machines from a distance. Looks like that was removed in Forbidden West.

      @@tonepilot Yup. You need to find bows that have berserk arrows. Oftentimes you'll need to upgrade the bow to unlock them.

    i'd say its quite important to visit hunting grounds and maybe even the fighting pits early, apart from the rewards that yes, are pretty lame , they offer knowledge on how to do certain combos, when to use it, how to do certain hunting techniques, like tripwires combined with those logs or rocks that are activated by an arrow, it does explain some elements like freeze , plasma etc and how it works so at least try doing them, if you can't, come back later no big deal but i found em quite easy to do when i first discovered the hunting grounds. good luck

    Imo Big mistake: Using the best and rarest weapons.
    Maybe they deal a lot of damage and are strong but ammo for them is hard to craft. For example the best possible ropecaster i had. One of the crafting materials that are essential for it i had like 10 of it in my equipment so i could create ropes only 10 times. So i instead picked the "medium" or the blue one instead of gold or purple which was still rlly cool. And ofc you can still upgrade them and add parts that increase damage and other stats.
    .
    Ultrahard is way harder here than Zero Dawn beacuse of lack of Shield Weaver suit.
    I remember that ultra hard stopped me first at Tideripper in Las Vegas but NPCs helped me kill him but later i stopped on something else and couldn't do it.
    As for fire... Not only it is weaker as youre saying but it's also way more difficult to find parts to create fire arrows. Instead in this game it's easy to craft these 'acid' ones lol.
