I love the Banuk weapons but unfortunately haven't been able to get through the upgrades do to The Frozen Wilds haunting me on ultra hard haha. Right on, The Powershot Bow is my favorite bow. The Stormslinger is a great weapon as well, good call. Are harvest arrow beneficial on ultra hard then? Since resources are more expensive at that difficulty.

  • @Psykko_

    @Psykko_

    Жыл бұрын

    Harvest Arrows certainly can be beneficial on Ultra Hard. Just make sure not to waste them on live targets. When the goal is resource efficiency, a potential for losing resources via missing Arrows when shooting live machines with Harvest Arrows isn't the best idea. Dead machines are much easier to harvest resources from, more resource gain overall due to practically unmissable components on dead machines.

    I'm up with you, that's why I decided to play two NG+, one for normal (upgrading all weapons & armors, including FW), and second ultra-hard - when everything is already upgraded. It makes even more sense, taking into account that special super coils (which you can find in FW) appears all over again every time when you play NG+ (after completing previous game, of course), that way you can collect these unique super-coils again and again, eventually having multiple same "unique coil" (which become not unique after all), e.g. you install all of them on one weapon.

    I generally Freeze Stormbirds to bring them to the ground, takes two volleys from my bow on Ultra Hard. After Freezing a Stormbird mid-air, they will fall to the ground and be stunned momentarily. It’s fairly easy to kill a fallen Frozen Stormbird before it takes flight again. Ropecaster basically adds an extra step. You’re already aiming at the Stormbird, may as well freeze then kill the Stormbird Instead of Ropecaster -> freeze -> kill which takes more time and resources. I find the Ropecaster to be very overrated as their is generally other in game mechanics that solve combat problems better than the ropecaster. I do however understand that at times these mechanical solutions require more skill and game knowledge than most players obtain and are capable of producing. Which is one of the reasons why I make these videos, to help players feel more powerful as Aloy.

Can I ask you if the non-perfect purple mods you used have higher stats because you're playing New Game Plus? Or is it possible to gain them by farming them normally even during your first run? I'm asking because I don't think I ever found a 50% Ice 25% damage coil, nor the other ones you used on the Banuk War Bow.

    The DLC coils/weaves have Yellow Notches, a player can obtain 1 of each unique DLC coil/weave per playthrough. NG+ doesn't impact quality of RNG coil drops to my knowledge. Max stat coils/weaves are rather rare and generally take a decent amount of time to obtain.

    Hey there. I'm a bit late to the game. Thank you so much for the amazing video. I have a couple questions though. Just finished the game on ultra hard (not NG+) not knowing there was an achievement doing so in NG+. Anyway, as I watched your guide my jaw dropped since I haven't seen any damage like those of yours. The most I had was on fireclaws, hitting them on the belly container after freezing them which was around 1200+ damage. Does it go up in NG+? The other thing I noticed was how fast you could freeze the mobs. It takes full 12 freeze bombs sometimes a couple more with my shadow sling to freeze a fireclaw while it is fully coiled with freeze coils (+42% x2 and +40%). I gave up freeze arrows from my Banuk Champion Bow again fully coiled with freeze coils (+40% x2 and +38%) seeing how slow it builds up and fireclaws are no joke to me at this state. So I couldn't risk taking collosal damage while trying to freeze it bit by bit with freeze arrows. One last thing, you seem to do extremely well on aiming thunderjaws' heart area the eyes of the machines etc. How do u achieve this level of precision? Do you do anything special to be that accurate? Or is there a setting I may have missed? Cus even when I slow time when aiming I cannot be that accurate. That is probably on me since I'm don't count myself as skilled in games. Seems like I'm yet to learn some game mechanics that are not revealed to me so far cus it seems I am doing some things totally wrong. Thanks again.

    Ultimately, do whatever works for you. The rope caster is useful to those who require help dodging/aiming/avoiding machines. Not everyone has or wants to spend 1000s of hours playing this or any game. I’ve never liked the ropecaster because it feels like a skill crutch, and a learning crutch. But, I am a sweat lord, so I don’t play games in the same way the large majority of players do.

    Hey there psykko! Just wanted to let you know that you're an amazing player, and I love your videos! And btw, I was wondering if you could make a video or just a random post showing screenshots of your modification stats. I noticed that for some weapons, you aren't using special modifications, so I just wanted to know the stats for those certain modifications. I have played the game 10 times, and I have 10 pristine weapon coils as well.

Amazing Guide, i learned so much, and i love how its so in depth along with ur opinion and facts. also i dont really use the rope caster at all either, i love setting up traps and luring them in and manipulating all my enemies thru chokes and rip them apart with tear to get all my goodies. Once they look like they've been thru a shredder - a quick finish once they get close to me with the rattler - as it RIPS them in seconds. God i love this game - i didnt realize how good it was until i got past the starting area and into the dessert to start seeing all these Amazing mechs.

    The "Tool" is used in situations players need help aiming, dodging and crowd controlling during. Good aim offsets a need to use Ropecaster to hit specific weakpoints. Proficiency in dodging and reading machine attacks and trajectories (even off screen enemies), offsets a worry of being hit. Understanding all of the machine weakpoints and how various elements impact them as well as, damage to stagger thresholds offsets a need for using the Ropecaster as CC. There is no "secret" combat tip or tips. Boils down to once a player has enough mechanical knowledge and skill regarding H:ZD, other than "for fun" the Ropecaster is worthless.

Hard-point Arrows/Icerail Ice Cannon/Precision Arrows/Rattler Bolts can do anywhere from 2x damage to 5x damage against Machine weakpoints. If the machine is frozen, the previously mentioned ammo types do 2x damage to weak points and 3x damage to the body of machines.

Player level could arguably impact drop quality as you encounter more sources that drop Purple coils/weaves in "higher level" areas. 67% is the max stat Handling coils can get up to. Damage, Tear and Elemental coils go up to a max stat of 50%.

    Rattler Bolts do Pierce damage, which has a multiplier to frozen targets of 300% bonus to body and 200% bonus to weak points. Bombs do 25% bonus damage to frozen targets which is significantly less. I definitely prefer Bows to the Rattler, but if someone is going to use the Rattler they should absolutely take advantage of Freeze when possible.

    So ok, i'm gonna go get the blue gleam weapons as a first thing to do, and yeah i was trying to brute force my way though to get the best weapons all together, but it seems the devs made the economy on ultrahard for you to explore every single meter of the map on you way to get as much shards and itens as possible, which is not a bad thing overall, encourages exploration over everything else
