    Most people probably do this already but when dodging ranged attacks if you just keep running in one direction you will almost always get hit. Machines aim for where you're going to be based on your speed and direction. Slide in one direction then roll in the opposite. The extra speed from sliding sends the tracking way off, and once the machine fires the trajectory is set. That's when you roll away.

    • @ArktixOfficial
      @ArktixOfficial  ปีที่แล้ว +45

      Yes good tip! You can definitely throw off their ranged attacks that way.

    Glad to see you're still putting out HFW videos. Got about 300 hours in the game so far and still learning new things from your videos. Currently on ultra hard NG+ trying to finish that up before GOW comes out in a week or so. Looking forward to your GOW videos as well.
    By the way, your ultra hard tips videos and you're getting prepared for ultra hard videos are spot on. Like crafting more stamina and effects remover potions than health potions. More stamina and effect remover are way more important on ultra hard than they ever were on hard. Also, radial blast stays at my side for the ready 24/7. Seems like ultra hard has more enemies, and they obviously don't give you a break even for a second. I constantly find myself in the middle of like five machines, being like wtf. Radial blast. BOOM!

    The tripcaster instant brittle tactic is extremely useful against apex machines strong against frost in ultra hard. Without brittle, bigger machines are just too tanky to kill. For example, apex slaughterspine has 33k hp on ultra hard with x2.8 hp multiplier. They are way too long to kill without brittle. Thanks for the tip!

    These are awesome! I'll have to try out the tripcaster one because I rarely use them in HFW compared to HZD. The shredders in the water trick is so interesting, intended or not. And the thing with the strikethrough arrows keeping you in stealth is how I harvested all the Fire/Frostclaw sacs I needed for my upgrades - I'd explode their shoulders from stealth and finish them off with other tricks once that knocked down their health a bit XD

    You really outdid yourself with this video, imo! The recent Arena videos were absolutely awesome, but I love the most how you and the community continue to amaze with new discoveries and combat strats!
    That Tripcaster Instant Brittle wire shooting is way too OP for stealth kills, but VERY welcome for some fun ideas lol.
    As a fellow Shredder fan here, the lasting dmg on water/ground glitch... Boy oh boy, I feel sorry for Tiderippers the most.
    Also: 12:19 is a straight-up chad way to end machines!
    I hope these things won't get patched (too hard).
    The instant reload though! THANK you, thank you, thank you for this insight!
    As for smoke bombs; if you feel like a machine/enemy is doing an attack you feel you won't be able to dodge, try a smoke bomb to cancel its attack (mind your timing still though)! The Tideripper "water puking charge" on land is insanely hard for me to dodge with even a slide roll. But one smoke bomb done right and, to quote Sylens "and... voila.", position yourself and continue the hunt!
    Thank you again for the amazing content and I look forward to your future videos!

  • @jay.c2097
    @jay.c2097 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I never hear anyone talking about this one but it’s a GREAT stealthy movement option: You can cancel a sprint into a slide pretty much immediately. You can also sprint from a crouch. Meaning you can go directly from a crouch into a slide which is an amazing option if you want to maintain stealth but need to quickly stealth kill a weaker enemy just outside of your range to keep from being detected. This was a thing in Zero Dawn as well!

    • @ArktixOfficial

    On ultra hard stealth becomes more difficult sense dealing damage makes the agro directly *on your position* and if you hit a machine after the ? meter is gone but the eyes are still yellow you can sneak ONE free stealth hit in that won’t be noticed at all.
    example on how to stealth good in ultra hard: found while fighting stalkers in the jungle wind generator ruins, find two sets of grass between your target that is at least 10 meters away, hide in the one closest and fire. Immediately dodge backwards towards the other grass, run and slide into it to hid inside. If done well enough the target won’t have seen you and you are safe from scouring, move back when safe and repeat. Grass isn’t limited to its position, you are safe outside as long there’s grass between you and their eyes

    Maybe it is just me but despite the fact I love your videos, I’m waiting for the Targeting Arrows and Berserker strategy guide. I know they don’t work as they intended to or they don’t work at all, but someone, somewhere probably figured out how these 2 arrows work and how to use them effectively.

    • @ArktixOfficial

      Hmm unfortunately I really think those arrows and the berserker mechanic just don't work very well. I mean the targeting arrows help direct your overridden machines, so they work as intended, but that's really all they do. Hopefully in a future update they make berserker more interesting.

    • @FrozenKombat
      @FrozenKombat ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ArktixOfficial thanks so much for your reply. Worked as intended? I think you must know they are bugged. When you have a defense overridden machine and you use your arrows, they stay still and don’t attack the targeted machine while alloy just take the heat. Only works with aggressive machine and it is kind of useless on those because they are already engaging enemy machines or killing themselves. I really thought you had some tricks under the table. Thanks so much for your answer tho, I appreciate it.

    Personally, I really find that the developers should create a consistent way to lure out machines that can dig underground.
    Slitherfangs and Burrowers aside, the way how Rockbreakers and Shellsnappers can lunge at you is kinda unfair.
    Also, could you do a video on Rollerbacks?
    I just can never seem to dodge all three of the shockwaves they create when they roll into the air and slam down on you.
    In fact, dodging just a single shockwave is hard!

    • @ArktixOfficial
      @ArktixOfficial  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I agree. There should be a good way to get them out of the ground, especially Shellsnappers. A Rollerback guide is on my list! Dodging those shockwave slams is definitely hard. Best to keep your distance in my experience, but that's hard too lol

    Great video, man! I love your stuff. It's super useful.
    I've been practicing the shredder instant charge up trick. Or trying to. (10:30 in the video) I still haven't gotten it to work. Did they patch it out? Or do I just need to practice more? L2+R2 on every catch. But I never get anything more than the normal single uptick on charging.

  • @ASpaceOstrich
    @ASpaceOstrich ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I noticed that aim assist is never actually disabled. I'm guessing what the game calls "aim assist" is actually reticle magnetism, which gets disabled on higher difficulties, but your arrows will still curve slightly to hit things even with aim assist turned off. I've noticed this particularly when sliding or jumping. I actually only really noticed it because its caused me to miss a target a couple of times.

    • @ArktixOfficial
      @ArktixOfficial  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      So actually that’s an intended mechanic that I explained in my 8 secret combat mechanics video. When you jump or slide and get slow motion while drawing, the game gives you a bit of extra aim assist, even on ultra hard where aim assist is disabled.

    If you want dodging to be easier, simply take up the weapon wheel to slow time for better timing as you can do it while it’s still open. Highly recommend making the slow effect to maximum in settings as it’s all around superior.

  • @i_GARTYx
    @i_GARTYx 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Question: Arktix talks about invincibility frames but my question is, if you slide at the perfect moment but you do so directly into/ in range of a machines attack, will you still take damage? I ask because sometimes I seem to dodge at the right time but I still take hits. Some attacks are area effect I believe and can only be evaded by being out of range e.g. behemoth ground slam but sometimes I dodge but It looks like I didn’t make it far enough away from a clawstrider leap attack for example and so I take damage. So are invincibility frames genuinely invincible in all circumstances asides from area damage?

    • @ArktixOfficial
      @ArktixOfficial  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Good question. The invincibility frames do truly offer invincibility. You can dodge/slide directly through any attack, including AOE attacks, if you can time them just right. That being said, the window of invincibility frames is very short (8 frames for a dodge and 11 for a slide iirc). So, if you don’t time them right, you can easily take damage. This is especially true with AOE attacks because you will often not be able to get clear of their AOE within such a short timeframe. That’s probably why you have felt that invincibility frames don’t work against AOE attacks. They do, but the window of invincibility is very short.

A controller like the one steam made that has mouse like accuracy on one of the inputs would be perfect I think

That's pretty much what they did to Braced Shot, & it's a crying shame.
