Horizon Forbidden West - Maxed Glowblast Sharpshot Bow and Braced Shot - Level 36

This quest takes place near the Western coast. I take out a level 35 Thundertusk, Skydrifter, and level 30 Thunderjaw.
I'm about 2/3 through the main story now I think. I've been working on most of the side quests just to consume all the content. I'm a bit over-leveled right now for my current place in the main story - the next quest is level 26, and I'm level 36 (38 as of the upload of this video).
I found a Glowblast Sharpshot Bow (amazing tear stats and really good precision damage) and spent a few hours farming up the Greenshine to maximize its upgrades. I added coils that I found for +25% stealth damage, +25% reload speed and +25% tear damage. I have a full Infiltrator skill tree, so I have Braced Shot.
Its precision arrows do 156 impact/105 tear.
Its tear arrows do 16 impact/543 tear.
This bow can one-shot kill a lot of level 20 range machines with Braced Shot (at least on Normal difficulty). I knew I had a powerful bow when I used Braced Shot against a half health Fire Bristleback, and the shot killed both the Bristleback and the full health one standing next to it...
Quite a difference from the struggle I had previously against a Thunderjaw. I now spend a lot less time looking for components on machines to exploit during fights, and the amazing Tear damage is great for getting components that I need to separate before the machine is killed.
Dare I say, though, this bow I think makes the game a bit too easy. If I can find another Apex Thunderjaw (level 48), I'll take it on.
Update: After having finished the game, I would say Braced Shot absolutely makes the game too easy. It's more worthwhile to look for weaknesses to exploit rather than just slamming everything with an explosive arrow. The end fights were far too easy with it.
Played on a PS5, 1080p, Performance mode.

I had the override for the skydrifter and the tremortusk, so I had them attack the thunderjaw and then only had to deal with the tremortusk.

I feel like this battle went on for 5x longer than it had to. Too much running, not enough shooting.

[@craigyack3932]

I was still learning the limits of the rules, and also appreciating the graphics. After I finished the game story and started farming around, I wasted less time.

​@@craigyack3932 my suggestion would be skilling the stealth dmg and doing the first shot in stealth. You can almost one shot big machines.

[@craigyack3932]

@@night__walker I did realize that after a time. I've pretty much played the game out and am done with it for the time being.

@@craigyack3932 just saw that it's from a year ago 😅 nevermind 😉

I cheated on this mission (Ultra Hard) by doing the sniping shot from the small ridge west of the valley. The one narrow channel from the campfire. It was the easiest mission I've ever accomplished of this game.
