2024 anyone?
I mean, can anyone confirm it is working?
@mateiguru4367 thanks mate
@mateiguru4367 which cliff? There's no cliff that can reach for arrow
Yeaa
@mateiguru4367No matter the level, it works anyway
For anyone who also constantly suffers lack of wiring, loot the shell walkers aswell, they drop tons of wire!
tysmmm
Really ?!..Thank you..:D Been playing Horizon on pc last few days, i am at half the game or so i think..after getting to Meridian and getting to Olin guy in next quest. And i am always lacking wire, forced to use hunter bow constantly because i cant make sharpshooter arrows :/
@@DreamskyDance wire weapons are all so useful smh
Oh I finished the game yesterday with no wires 😂
Thanks alot. Never knew
I’ve put over 200 hours into this amazing game and didn’t know about this farm. Still working like a champ in February 2021. Thanks for sharing!
Wow... Gotta try it out... Started playing not long ago. But do you need a certain level before you can do this. I'm at level 18
@@TheMessenger012 Hey man. The guy that gives you that mission only appears after a certain point in the game so no point rushing to that town and expect to get it immediately. From memory I think you had to at least find Erend’s sister.
Nice video.
Does it still work today?
@@RipperTH-camOfficial Haven’t played in a while. Try it out and if it does, update the channel to say it’s still working as of today
March 2022 this trick still works. Saving me a lot of time. I’m about to start a NG+ so I’m using this to get the best mods first
Didn't work for me. I went back and the whole area had been wiped like normal.
what level should we have to do this quest minimum lvl can u please tell me
@@mrkthmn maybe leaving one item in their inventory will keep them from despawning
Can you loot purple ones?
Here is the original Reddit Post I was told about that mention this trick: www.reddit.com/r/horizon/comments/ggyomf/infinite_purple_mod_farming/?
Have you tried it on normal difficulty mode ? Any vids ? Might be a challenge to kill all of them at one go tho
Feb 2024 and still working.. thank you!
Still working as of 20th November 2022. Great modifications and overall one of THE best farming spots
This is insane! All my weapons and armors got the best mods in like 30-45 minutes. It‘s so easy and still working on ps4 , August 31. Much love! ❤️
Nice one, thanks for this tip. It's still working on PS4 (October 2020). As mentioned by someone earlier, if the mods aren't there when you've been away doing something else in the game, take the run/walk to the tree and back from the fallen Behemoth and all the goodies will reappear.
For those needing wire , blaze , sparkler . Stack up on potions , traps and then drop all from inventory . Pick them up and then drop them all again . This duplicates them so when you have max , duplicate one more time and then sell to merchant . Then go back pick up the ones you left and do it again . Do it next to the merchant so every time you go back to the merchant you’re receiving 500-1000 shards ( depending on size of bag because you’ll dup more ). Then buy whatever you need .
That was way too confusing and incomprehensible lol.
Absolutely doesn't duplicate anything.
@@daodrassulravan5520
It does, he just explained it a bit janky.
What you need to do is:
1) Go to any merchant, and stand close by.
2) open inventory, and go to traps and potions.
3) drop all the items in your potions and traps.
4) close inventory, and pick up all the items you’ve just dropped.
5) repeat steps 2 and 3.
6) when you close your inventory after dropping them all again, they’ve duplicated.
Keep repeating steps 2 to 5. Merchants have infinite shards to repeat till you get fed up.
@@Hamaffleck exactly how I explained it just without numbers lol , all they needed to do was exactly what I wrote lol
@@daodrassulravan5520you literally drop them all , then pick it up . Then drop them again.
That duplicates them.
Pick up again and repeat until you're maxed on the traps , potions ect .
Duplicate one more time and pick up the dupes
Sell to merchant .
Pick up the left over dupes from before and repeat.
After selling for around 10min you'll receive around 1000 shards depending on your storage .
this is very useful for ultra hard because collecting and buying resources is a nightmare
10th May,2021, still looking solid and working properly
The very same
29th May, 2021 still solid.
What about saving it turning the console off and turning the console back on and loading that save file will it still be on the ground or everything back to normal or gone?
@ryvls thank you!
@@limegamer5711 does this work for pc as well?
I can't believe I totally missed Free Heap in my first run. I only learned of it after I met Petra during the final battle and was like "Who the hell is this? Am I supposed to know her?"
yeah the main story never takes you there
me too. When they talk in the final battle, i never met petra during my game, and i was WTF is she?
Salute to you, my guy, for showing us this! I am replaying Horizon and this is just what I need to make the game soo much easier for me.
I'm really surprised loot can respawn without respawning the whole machine that dropped it. I don't think I've ever seen any other game do that.
Right? I heard him talk about the tree and immediately assumed "Oh, so the maschines respawn. That's cool." but this is even easier and better!
The machines might not respawn alive, but their dead corpses definitely respawn which is why the loot also does. The game loads new machine corpses each time you arrive in the area.
@@Arkayjiya wait a minute. If the game respawn dead bodies, would that work for any machine? Like, I could loot thunderjaws infinite times as well? 🤔
@@palermodpr I don't think it respawns dead bodies in general. It only respawns those who are necessary for a quest. And not the quests that let you kill any machine, the quests that need you to kill specific ones.
@@palermodpr for any active main/side/errand or checkpoints based mission it's still working.
Thanks for this vid Elk. awesaome job. gonna use it for my new save file setup
As of Jan 2023 this still works.
I didn’t really need it, but it does work.
I just scrapped anything green or blue and collected until I was full..
Pretty cool.
Thanks for the info. I was just asking me this.
This still works as of February 9th 2022! For those looking to do this now
Can’t believe I just tried this at the end of Ng+. This would have been AMAZING to have found early on. I would have just spent a full day maxing mods and shards. Still after like 200 hrs of play, I’m occasionally finding better mods here. Got a 30% spear damage mod. Thought it only went to 26 :)
I didn't know that you could get spear damage mods that good! I have two 28% spear damage mods if memory serves me right. I gotta check this out.
somehow my third purple spear damage mod was 30%, sadly I have not yet found a stealth mod over 13%
Best guide. Not only purple mod you can also get infinite metal shards. You get around 400-500 per run.
November 27 2021, still works fine. Two things: 1. If you kill all the behemoths and shell-walkers in the convoy in different spots, they will be lying in perfect raw as you come back to reloot them; 2. This loot respawn trick works as well without a mount, but it's faster to go back and forth using a mount, for sure. Thank you Elkjaer TV for the amazing tip!
does it work even if you leave the area fast travel somewhere do side quest or main quest and when you come back does the mods still appear?
@@vahngaming7107As long as your quest with behemoth cables is in progress, you can do whatever you want instead. Just go back to the quest location, do the u-turn around the tree again and the mods will reappear. BTW you can loot everything from the behemoths including all the 9 cables needed for the quest itself, but don`t go to Petra and keep relooting :)
@@user-ji3zk8wp1r thnx so i can just take this errand and do some farm then leave to do main/side then come back if i need mods. thnx
I am level 12 and have not gone to Meridian yet. What level do you recommend to do this?
@@expat8460 around lvl 40 i guess. just go through story first. for me i did this last.
I'm late to this party so my apologies if this has already been mentioned, but regardless of where you kill the behemoths originally (mine got quite separated), after the first respawn the behemoth corpses will always be lined up right behind each other as in the video. Convenient!
Still working on March 11, 2022. On any difficulty, NG+ or not. Still haven’t found a second spear coil but hot damn it’s good to have lying around for when you need to get more shards/resources. Leave them lying there as you continue playing and just fast travel back and run around the tree again as he states and they’ll refresh their loot. Thanks Elk!
Awesome video, this is gonna be fun to get ready for frozen wilds this month, thank you
I'm playing the game in Sept 2023 and by God this still works!
Also, it doesn't matter what choice you take (going solo or along with the hunters) you can kill them and then try the hack and it will still give you all the loot again and again.
March-April 2024, still working beautifully.
I never thought of playing it since it released.
But after a couple of TH-cam watching,
Now it’s my genre during the quarantine
@ElkJaerTV Thank you so much man this was a ton of help
I remember doing this a lot a while ago but since I finished the game and didn’t play it for awhile I forgot where the location was so thanks man👍🏼😁
Thank you so much, this really helped with my mods and shards!! Still working as of 1/10/2021 if anyone’s interested!
Still works as of 4/6/2022 and super easy. Thanks a ton man!
Glad im saving this mission for later haha good vid man
Late comment, but thank you so much for this tip senpai!
This allowed me to get my second 30% spear coil plus other good stuff. I got the first 30% coil from farming Thunderjaws until I found out about this. I was quite lucky because the only notable ones were one 29% and another 30%, and I probably looted/sold over 600 coils. I also got 200k+ shards from looting/selling/trading mysterious boxes...did have to ride my mount around a LOT though lol Make sure to trade all the crystal/luminous braidings you loot with the merchant in Meridian - the boxes you get always yield better shards than selling the braiding itself, especially the Hunter Big Game Box.
This worked exactly as shown in the video on PC patch 1.07 and I took advantage of it in early November 2020 I believe. I haven't done it again since then (didn't need to) and now PC patch is at 1.08. I bet it's still working though as I saw a comment from someone saying that he reported this to the devs prior to me giving it a try and it was still working. It's safe to say that they're letting players exploit this even though they're aware of it. I mean, people who are doing this obviously love the game, and why would the devs discourage them from playing more and more?
This is amazing, i lost my saved file with 100+ hours in and 12+ bows each with a specific purpose with mods fitting that purpose and it was a pain farming all of these again
Since I can't do this anymore. I just farm the area where you battle two Thunderjaws. With full Freeze and Hard point arrows. Easy kill. You can farm for everything there too with the exception of metal burn. If you need wire the lance horns are there to farm from.
Absolute game changer!! Thanks for the great video!
Subbed this is awesome! Thanks 👍
Late to the party but just tried this and it worked flawlessly, thank you.
speechless, this is a very very extraordinary tips !! thank you 😊
i love you man i have been grinding soooooooooo much for shards and mods thank you alot for telling me
Just got into the game myself. Surprised this still works. Would be surprised if there is a better metal shard site too. Quickly found myself having to prioritize purple mods.
This farming spot is amazing! Thank you for sharing it 😊
Omfg thank you I actually saw that video while I was riding to Petra XDDD 300m in front of her I turned back to loot the behemoths xD thank you!!
Thanks for this! Very helpful!
No problem :)
wow, such an amazing trick, thanks for the video
It still work perfectly in december 2020 thx
And 2021
2021
on the ps5 and yeah, it's a ps4 game but it works!
@@_delirious lol they haven't still fixed it
Does it have to be on new game+?
Work perfectly in January 2021. Thanks a lot!
Nice. And here I was farming Thunderjaws over and over on Ultra Hard. Gonna try this on my 100% new game run.
Just tried this today it works great for extra farming for ultra hard mode thanks alot
To keep the tradition going;
March 6 still working
May 10th still working
May 11th still working
@@ryanlu7610 may 11th at noon still working
@@abraashfarooq1739 idk but most likely yes 😅
@@abraashfarooq1739 is it still working? gonna try it tomorrow haha
Havent play this game for like 3 to 4 years feel like gonna replay it
Still works as of monday, 17th of July, thank you so much bro this rlly helped 🙏
thank you for telling us when this mission would come, as other videos that I've seen don't.
Still working on PS4 August 19th awesome thank you for this
Eyyyyyy thats my birthday
5/09/21 still works on free digital copy. Was also able to save at campfire, fast travel away and back, still works.
Buy it ... support the devs
Recently used this, thank you!
This is brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙏🏻 Thank you so much ☺️
Can confirm still working January 2022. THANK YOU!!
Just wanted to ask. How did he cause a blast with an hard point arrow?
yo this is so helpful. could you please give us a tour of all your mods on your weapons?
Gay
I'm about to finish the last quest, so I figured, since I probably won't do that many replays I'm going to go ahead and just build a goddess with purple mods. This video definitely helps! Thanks for sharing :) I just wonder if playing in story mode might mess up any of my achievements?
March 2024, PC. This still works. Thanks.
How cool. Many say farming isn't in the spirit of the game but pfft. Thanks for the share.
I bet I'm not the only one who will try this trick when HZD comes to PC next weekend.
Thanks man. Also for the outfit vid
Thanks for sharing this, Elkjaer!
Sept 2022, works on Steam's version.
as of 10/8/21 4 a.m. this still works. one thing to note is if u fast travel to somewhere from the immediate area where you looted the dead bodies and then go back to the place, you have to reset the loot again by running to the tree or an equal distance in any other direction from the bodies.
Waiting for your HZD2 speedrun xD
Hehe, let the game release first!
@@ElkjaerTV does it work for pc as well?
Nice vid bro! is this works in new game or new game + only?
still works!!! March 22/2022 playing right now. i wanna finish HZD before i start HFW. Thanks for the tip!!!
im always running out of chillwater so this will be nice. thanks for the vid
Glad it helps you out :)
😹😹 i get rod of my chillwater cuz i have to much
find a herd of lancehorns and after u take them down, shoot their chillwater canisters with harvest arrows...
u will get 6 chillwater for each
@@ElkjaerTV Hi，just wonder what is the specifications of your bow, and how do you kill them in just one shot? Thanks
@@themightykingnicholas3890 he said in the video that he's playing on story difficulty, therefore everything is one shot
Thanks for this tips 😀you're the best 👍
Thank you :)
Elkjaer TV ☺
Still works as of 9/25/21. Thanks for the tip!
I love stuff like this thanks
Having never played the game on any setting lower than, "Hard", my jaw about hit the floor when the whole damn herd just...died 😂. It got me laughing because it was so unexpected.
And here I thought my thunder jaw farm was a good harvest. I’m gonna try it out tomorrow.
Lol same+this way consumes less resources
Damn dude it still works for me
Thx SOOOO much
Working as of April 28, 2021. This is also a really good metal shards farm/other resources farm besides mods. Each behemoth gives around 100-150 shards. Thanks a lot for this ^^
Wich set up do u use to One shot all the machines?
@@federicofocardi3043 Story mode difficulty + Banuk PowerShot bow
Thunderjaw gives 200+ shards each time
It works!!!! Thank you so much!!!
23 July 2021
This worked perfectly until I did some more missions and when I went back to get some mods for my new bow there was no loot anymore. I may aswell just turn the quest in now:/
I confirm this, once you start this don't go somewhere else, farm and leave only when you think you had enough
Odd. I did this many times at different time/mission intervals on pc. Did 10 or so runs, left and did some missions, came back, repeat. I did this 4-5 times. I still wasn't near the end of the game. Maybe if you start the endgame chain and Petra moves to Meridian, the quest fails or enemies despawn; not sure.
What arrow and damage were used? I cant seem to make it happen
Another way is to get the cauldron to be able to override from the thunderjaw, then go to the thunderjaw site, override one, and make him kill the other one then, you’ll be able to get three purple modifications every time!
In general I do not subscribe to channels since few I did subscribed to ended up disappointing me.
I watched your video on getting Shield Weawer early, followed instructions and managed to obtain it in more or less 45 minutes. I was surprised, pleasantly, with..well everything. Step by step, simple, no BS it was like I was sitting and watching my friend showing me something.
Now I watched this video and I am still very early in my play through and are yet to reach Free Heap (legitimately) I can’t wait to try this out.
In short I somehow think I will not go wrong this time so I am clicking that SUB button with one big KUDOS to you and just keep doing what you do.
Same - getting the armor early was the best thing I ever did. It's literally OP and will save you many times over.
"excuse me if I make it look extremely easy" he said
It is extremely easy though... Story difficulty is even easier than easy mode is practically god mode more or less. Is impossible to die unless you make a mistake like jumping from a Clift or jumping into a bottomless pit in the cauldrons. Im doing story difficulty to prepare again for another ultra hard run. Shards will be useful to buy materials and stuff.
@@AMaidenlessRunt yea im on normal difficulty and i was trying to do this glitch but i ended up farming thunderjaws
storm birds are best sources for 2-3 very rare mods
@@nothingtoseehere2686 how you kill those?
Flip89 Use tearblast arrows to pop the casing off the blaze or chillwater canisters on both its sides. Use a fire arrow to shoot the blaze and use freeze arrows for the chillwater. If the bird is flapping around too much, use a ropecaster to tie it down. If you dont have ropecaster, use tearblast arrows to break the stabilizers on its wings to force it to the ground.
Thanks! Still works on PC version (Epic, if relevant) as of August 15, 2020.
nice ill try it then
Oh this will ne helpful I keep running out of echo shells need the shards from these guys to get them off merchants
it is WORKING on PC on sep 12 2020. Fastest way to loot
this is better than going after thunderjaw cuz u have to kill it everytime.
there is a fire near that tree in the video, fast travel to that but u have to go to that tree in the video, cross and go back to that location again and loot again!
22nd Sep 2021 and it still works, thanks a lot!
Still working 5/20/21. Best farming hands down. I just upgraded big time!!!
I shared this video with a few Horizon Zero Dawn gamers
Thank you hope they will like it :)
Hey Elk, do you know if this works if I fast travel to a nearest merchant location and come back to the place where the machine corpses are?
Yes the corpses will stay there until you talk to Petra back at Free Heap.
@@ElkjaerTV Thanks a ton !
March 2024 and still works! Awesome job,mate!!
May 20th 2021, still working you're awesome dude
From what I’ve tested. As long as you never finish the quest the machines should still be there. All you have to do is circle that tree and the loot spawns back every time. You can finish other quests, save and close the game, load back up. doesn’t matter long as you never finish the ‘Hammer and Steel’ quest the loot and machines should always be there.
so i can just sell the mods if i overfill and then getting back right? that sounds great!
Can confirm it still works till this day
Pc ??
@@lordgallo4213 both
nice video thanks for sharing the information :)
No Problem :)
thanks for the video. Still works mid August 2021
As of July 1 2023 this still works
Can confirm that this still works as of February 16th, 2022
Just tried it. Went back about five times, no issues. Mods seem to change each time. Managed to get a couple of 60% handling mods which was awesome because I have found good handling mods hard to come by.
Outstanding 👌 thank you 🤗 ✌
Damn it I've already finished this mission too late ughhhhhhhhh
Working January 2022. Safe to say it won't be patched seeing as Forbidden West comes out in a couple of weeks😂
Just tried today still works Feb 2022, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for that!
