@@kensid1 I don’t they any of us are “skilled” at this game, it be hard in some couldrens, if some guy says he’s skilled out him in front of a thunder jaw with no berries and only plain arrows and tell him not to die
This looks fun to you? This beastbis not a boss... Its just a mini boss, this game combat sucks...you have no mobility, no time to aim, and a weak ass bow...this game is s grind.
Fights like these are so cinematic. So immersive, so incredibly detailed. Everything you do mattered to the fight. The sliding, dodging, using the enemies own weapons against them. ABSOLUTELY breathtakingly beautiful. Moments like these makes Horizon Zero Dawn one of the best designed games of this generation ❤❤❤
This particular player only used 2 weapons successfully, minus the Disc Launcher, but another option would have been to switch to freezing arrows after knocking it down and exploding the canisters, or using a ropecaster to tie it down. You're right though there are so many options each equally as valid.
Upto Very Hard difficulty using precision arrows on a ropecasted enemy was the way to go. But on Ultra Hard you really gotta learn some new tricks. Multiple enemies all at once, more aggressive enemies. And NO enemy Healthbars so you don't even know how much progress you have made. This especially applies to the Frozen Wilds DLC. The FireClaws were a headache.
@@ridenenaji Thunderjaw is easy af on any difficulty. Just rope it and remove the armor plates on the heart. And blast away with anything you have. The FireClaws are the ones that are a headache.
Am I the only one that finds it entertaining to find a good rock they can’t break and laugh at the thunder jaws as they relentlessly attempt to kill you after you provoke them?
i was (kinda cheating) up on a mountain provoking it THEN game understood and thunderjaw went far away and waited for me to get down, it was hilarious lol
@@monsterhunteraddict3696 Don't worry about it, I have a 5-10 minute video losing to 2 Bellowbacks after a somewhat cool looking battle. I can now take 4 down within minutes.
@@Sneznawa Just how everyone else is here, and it’s kinda hard to miss when you’re reading a comment. The time the comment was made is “above” the comment itself. (If you didn’t know that.)
Tear blast arrows make for rhisw epic moments when a sawtooth or ThunderJaw is ambling towards you and an arrow hits at the right moment to make them go tumbling past while Aloy stands their bow in hand looking like a badass as if that was what she always intended to do.
Can be? It was easily my most consistently used weapon. Practically every fight. Literally strips enemies of both weapons and defenses so you can take em down quick and easy 👌 Edit: going though comments I realized some people never/barely used it. That's unimaginable to me but I guess it's a testament to great game design!
Basically if you wanna make the fight fun you do this. If you just wanna kill the thunderjaw in 3 seconds just blow open his side, freeze and dmg the core. He's down in 1 hit. Oh and they nerfed the disc launcher now so you can't do this as effectively.
@@IMclovin94I Yeah it makes no sense, if people wanna make the game unfun for themselves that's their loss. But I guess the otherside is "wow if this weapon is so powerful then i'm kinda shooting myself in the foot by not using it - even though it makes the game easy"
@@wojtekthegreat2115 That's not how game designers think, literally part of most learning courses is protecting the player from themselves and "Force" them in a fun zone created by you.
The only way this game would be better is if characters didn't feel like wooden planks speaking to each other all the time because the gameplay is just wow and the designs are so imaginative!
@@C0mfyest Considering HZD is already on PC, Forbidden West will surely come to PC at some point in the future. Plenty of games to play while we (PC gamers) wait.
When I first saw a description of what tear was early in the game before I unlocked it I was like "Pff yeah, I'll never use that." I then proceeded to consistently use tear arrows every fight as soon as I got the sharpshoot bow
This is my favorite video game and I've played tons. The environment is so real, no other game touches it. You can actually feel the dust storm. And taste it. The water effects are fabulous and the machines, omg, the machines. They're smart and they learn. Sometimes they just walk around the tripwire with a smirk on their machine faces (except for the shell walkers of course, they don't have brain one. But they will chase you forever.) The Tramplers are a bit dense but the Longlegs are clever. They're like a terrorist Grazer. And I do love a Behemoth. So much fun to kill that thing and tell me, how the hell can it run that frickin fast? You gotta get a head start on a Behemoth if you want to outrun it. And even then it's right on your butt. I wish this was an MMO also. Maybe they will do that one day.
Nothing makes this games combat shine more than fighting a FireClaw on hardest difficulty lol. Never have I in any game ever before that I've played, had to use every single thing in my inventory
I love how the devs made the Thunderjaw an MGS type of enemy. The first time I fought one it reminded me of Sahelanthropus (excuse the spelling) and it's the coolest machine enemy
Whenever I had to fight a thunderjaw, I just found higher ground where it couldn't reach me and shot at it with hardpoint arrows. All it could do was shoot back, and it only took about 4 or 5 minutes to take one down
If you haven't done it already, but you can easily make that 5 minutes into 30 seconds Feeze then spam hardpoint arrows When it it gets free from the ice and starts shooting at you use the lodge/shadow ropecaster to tie it down then finish it off You'll take it down extremely quickly with that method Or if you're daring, blast the disk launchers off, then freeze it and go to town with its own weapon
When I went to cauldron for getting zeta override then most difficult thing was that defeat the thunder jaw...I had to fit 30 ,40 mines to kill this bastard but he did not kill easily..... Most frustrating thing was that wierd glitches, small area...this bastard covers the surface area which cause you could not do anything... But fortune had helped me to kill this thing..
Super late, but when I finally killed that thunderjaw the body of it landed on top of me. Couldn’t clip out of it, so I had to reload my last save and do it all over again 💀
When it killed me the first time, I put out 12 blast tripcasters with 50% damage on them before it came out, it took 8 to kill a normal thunderjaw on very hard When it walked over the wires, only 50% of its healh was gone
I did almost this exact fight just the other day, only difference was that I finished it off with arrows instead of bombs. Same location too. I start every fight with tearblast arrows. It's so satisfying to hear the sound and see pieces go flying, and render the monstrous machines helpless. I've had ravagers and stalkers running from me after I stip them of their weapons and defenses.
for anyone just watching now, I find the best method is to use tearblast arrows with focus on both the disk launchers to kick things off. Start firing freeze arrows until frozen and then grab both the disk launchers and empty them. If it is still alive, a couple precision arrows to the "heart" should finish it off.
For new players who are just watching this video, freeze arrows are your best friend Freeze the thunder jaw then blast the disk launchers off, then go to town with the disk launchers On very hard you'll destroy it with one launcher if you're fast enough grabbing it Then go to the fire holding the second launcher save game, then load, you'll have a free launcher to repeat the process until you are the desired lvl and/or have the desired coil
The "limb system" and "fallen weapons system" in this game is NOTHING SHORT of amazing. Guerrilla found gold and innovation in their game design. It's strange that such game IS STILL A THIRD PERSON SHOOTER when you think of it. Enemies has the tools that can be used against them.
That tie down launcher is your friend. Especially with big boys like thunder jaw, Bohemouth, and those Eagle things. Just got that frost stick upgraded from the dlc too. That thing is so OP it seems like cheating.
Im always glad seeing hzd vids on yt. I just finished the game few days back and oh boy... the whole game, i enjoyed it !! Very wonderful execution of game movements so that every moment is crucial in survival during fights.
The Tearblaster is basically Tearblast arrows on steroids. You've probably heard of it since you're level 50. And for anyone who hasn't, it's a reward for completing the "Redmaw" side quest in the Hunter's Lodge Edit: Hunter's Blind not Redmaw
My preferred method. 1; sneak close to path. 2; lay down 15 explosive trips on top of each other. (As wide as you can but off and parallel to path) 3; tear blast both disk launchers when TJ is furthest from you (give your self a little time) 4: if you have time before he hits the wires, try and freeze that sucker! 5; hopefully the boom from the wires will obliterate him 6: if not just snack tripple sharpshooter arrows into his soft spots. It shouldn’t have much health left even on ultra hard.
If your tripcaster has high enough blast damage from mods, it is possible to use just the tripwires and lure the TJ into them and hopefully detonate them all at once and effectively "one-shot" it. Its costly, but if you're farming mods, there's a TJ that roams not far from a bonfire, so it makes for easy rinse-n-repeat
I use tearblast, then shoot it with freeze arrow to a point where you almost freeze him, then rope cast it til it couldn't move, then shoot freeze arrow til the freeze took an effect, then finally grab that disc launcher and beat the crap out of it
Youp,that moment when you get in your "hands" " the reaper" ,sorry don't know how it is called in ang.The exact effect of that purpple arrows in that material.
Anything that involves the tear stat is amazing in fights with any of the larger machines, like the Snapmaw. And the Thunderjaw. And the Frozen Wilds bear bois. Mostly because the Tearblaster can actually stun things.
I'm story mode, I went to a thunderjaw location where there is also a campfire and I used this trick. After I killed it, I used the save mechanics to reload the thunderjaw and I kept farming. Ez XP and shards and mods aswell. Just one tearblast shot and I picked up the disc launcher and killed it. Super ez. Use story mode to kill it In like 3 shots
It's been 6 years since I played this game, and I remember this area ad's this fight...damn. I think I Jeff to go back and finish this game before part 2 drops
I do this:freeze it, destroy the armor beside its head, then use a few sharp-shot arrows straight to the heart. The heart is covered by some armor and it only takes a few arrows to knock it off. Its near the front of it, and when you scan the thunderjaw it should show as a yellow circle a bit inside the thunderjaw. Thats my tactic
Man the tear blast was my muse up until I went into a new game+ on ultra hard… then they become like throwing rocks at a boulder. Still useful sometimes tho if you hit two or three on a single piece of armor!
Step 1: Tearblast the disc launchers off. Step 2: Lure it away from them. Step 3: Use ropecaster when it's far enough away from them. Step 4: Use it's own launchers against it at a distance.(ravager turrets are better for this)
to the contrary, I find tearblast actually makes the fight harder on ultrahard. tearblast does no damage besides the rupture of the part being torn off. if you tear the part off with damage arrows, you will do damage to the machine THEN tear the part off. even on ultrahard with blue tear and damage coils, it only takes about 6 hardpoint arrows to knock off the disc launchers and you've done more damage to the machine and left parts on for you to shoot with precision, as opposed to knocking them off for a paultry amount of damage and having less targets during a fight
Just use freeze arrows, by the time it frees itself from the initial freezing, you would've taken 60%+ of its health, then use the lodge/shadow ropecaster to then finish it off once immobilised
I honestly don't know how this video got traction recently since it's old as hell.. but thank you all for stopping by to watch me be a noob at this game lol.

Freeze arrows and shadow rattler works surprisingly well. The rattler is more of a meme weapon but really shines against large frozen machines.
Or after u get the disc launcher off just pin it with the rope caster then go to town can even get the freeze casters on the bottom if really wanna

It is the simplest boss I ever played when you have the tear blast arrow with more tear
More of a mini boss of the ground (most powerful ground machine outside of quest specific machines)

Me be like getting scared of thunderjaws
This vid:ima help you out whether you it or not
Easy way to kill the thundejaw is pairing the disc launchers with freeze ammunition. Then each disc does about double the damage
and freezing slows them down so that you can actually pick up the disc launchers without immediately being run over...
man i wish the tearblast was as effective in forbidden west as it is in zero dawn. At least the devs realized that this weapon was broken asf
This is why rope traps can be your friend....

It's been 6 years since I played this game, and I remember this area ad's this fight...damn. I think I Jeff to go back and finish this game before part 2 drops
4 years*
@@Dxny488 actually 5. 4 years 11 months and a few weeks when I made the comment. Still...more than 4
There are so many weapons, yet I keep using just fire and hardpoint arrows - bows maxed to fire and damage.
This is like a movie
Playing this game at 1440p,110fps, with a 3080ti is a whole different experience
Tear blast Arrows are OP as fuck.
Lazy Eye Jake yes they are 😂
yea that's why the new and Daemonic machines in Frozen Wilds are almost invulnerable to Tear
I already know he is my eternal friend
Damn i miss playing this. Cant wait for the sequel (?) to come out😩😩
Tear it's antenna first before ripping off it's disc launchers so it can't detect your location.
This game is breath taking
Tearblast is too OP. Fun to use hardpoint with 3 tear mods equipped
Ultimate combo, like 12 blast trip wires overlapping each other and freezing the enemy
Holy crap! I still don't have those yet. War bow I guess? Another tactic I saw on another video was Tripple freeze arrows then sticky bombs.
it is sad that when you get later on into the game you can kill several thunderjaws at once with little to no effort
i got 3 mods on my sharpshot bow all of them are for tear and damage feels good to knock off 4 components with 1 tearblast shot
I usually shoot the tearblast arrows in the Thunderjaw’s face and take the Gattling laser
This is better than all transformers games.
Tearblast was really great. I used to Blindly shoot arrows initially to take out the armor
I’m a simple man I see a thunder jaw I just run away 😂
same 💀🤚
I do this:freeze it, destroy the armor beside its head, then use a few sharp-shot arrows straight to the heart. The heart is covered by some armor and it only takes a few arrows to knock it off. Its near the front of it, and when you scan the thunderjaw it should show as a yellow circle a bit inside the thunderjaw. Thats my tactic
Same whenever I see a watcher I get scared 😨
@@Null101_1 watchers r very easy to destroy the only thing u should be afraid of is big and fast machines
@@Darkshadow-fs5qy nah man I get scared even the creepy sound they make. I am lvl 39 🤣
And then there is my dad on easy mode spamming blaze arrows whine the thunderjaw sits there and does nothing
tearblast arrow or tearblaster
yea i know im 4 years late
Using tearblast arrows for the first time was a game changer for me. I've took down a thunderjaw in my first try with it.😁
Fight was harder than it needed to be lol
Man the tear blast was my muse up until I went into a new game+ on ultra hard… then they become like throwing rocks at a boulder. Still useful sometimes tho if you hit two or three on a single piece of armor!
I used the stones to destroy the stones

Step 1: Tearblast the disc launchers off.
Step 2: Lure it away from them.
Step 3: Use ropecaster when it's far enough away from them.
Step 4: Use it's own launchers against it at a distance.(ravager turrets are better for this)
to the contrary, I find tearblast actually makes the fight harder on ultrahard. tearblast does no damage besides the rupture of the part being torn off. if you tear the part off with damage arrows, you will do damage to the machine THEN tear the part off. even on ultrahard with blue tear and damage coils, it only takes about 6 hardpoint arrows to knock off the disc launchers and you've done more damage to the machine and left parts on for you to shoot with precision, as opposed to knocking them off for a paultry amount of damage and having less targets during a fight
Just use freeze arrows, by the time it frees itself from the initial freezing, you would've taken 60%+ of its health, then use the lodge/shadow ropecaster to then finish it off once immobilised
freeze negates armour protection, so why bother with knocking armour off?
I simply freeze it and shoot it with triple arrows. That does the trick, it's cheaper and faster
u made it look so much harder then it should have
