Fair bit of play yesterday lets see if my old brain can remember any of it. Did a lot of exploring and bouncing back and forwards to Plainsong, it's just easy and I know where everything is and made the effort to find the people I could chat with after other quests. Not sure why they can't have a marker for those on the map. Took on a Shellsnapper, that was a mistake and a damn long fight especially as other machines joined in and a damn Drone was shooting at me as well!!!! Prevailed but I'll be steering clear from now on. Did a Charger race, hated it as I suck but won by a head. Found "Arrowhead" helped Drakka out and here we go with a quest that goes on and on and ends with a tough decision but I'd made it well before then anyway sorry Drakka but you sound like a loudmouth, and I don't trust you. . What was with that last fight I couldn't even see or tell who the enemy was even with the Focus. Found a Vista Point and matched it the first one I could not find the location and gave up. Caught a Drone and opened lots of campfires etc. Is it Spearpoint the name of the town where Yarra is? Anyway, parked there to do some selling and buying. There is stuff I am loathe to part with, but I have not been using it so going to get rid of nearly everything including all my green Coils and Weaves to buy purple weapons. What I am using more than in HZD (except for flying things) is the rope caster to tie down Thunderjaws, the Shell Snapper, those leaping things etc. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong with the Warrior Bow? The range is hopeless it seems to be very inaccurate and damage is terrible. I am losing it from my load slots. Pic's Nice hair didn't help you in the horse race. Damn this thing was tough, can anyone tell me what it means if my health bar is yellow?Why can't people be nice to each other??? Scenery shots I tmean syou'e rovrehealed you have a boostt oyour health as you can us ehealth potions to boost your healt hin thi sgame. I discovered thi sneat little tric kearl yon. Ihaven' tdon ean yo fthe races or Huntin ggrounds been thinking I might asv ethose fo rmy nex trun o fthe gam ewhen I do m yback t obac kwith Zero Dawn tha tI'v ebeen thinking of.

Poking my head in looking for help....
Has anyone on PC (keyboard) done the Seek and Strike melee challenge at the Bulwark? I watched videos that show Aloy landing on and hitting the first guy, jumping over him, and then hitting the second guy and it worked fine. But as soon as I hit the first guy, even on a jump, it says I fail. I don't know what to do. I remapped my keys so I didn't have to try to hit W and G at the same time but it's not helping.

dazk , the Warrior Bow is supposed to be used at point blank range. It's not for accurate, aimed weak-point shots, but rather for unloading arrows as quickly as your finger can fire. It's Burst Fire and Spread Shot techniques are some of the best damage-dealing techniques. It's awesome against pretty much anything, but particularly against humans and frozen machines. Be careful selling your coils. Even low-level coils remain useful. You'll have a lot of weapons as the game progresses, and they'll need coils to be useful. I don't think you should feel stressed to buy better gear. You'll earn appropriate gear at a pretty generous rate. Ropecasters are great. The Legendary one takes ages to appear. 🙄 One foolproof approach to tough machines, once you have the needed gear, is to tie them down, freeze them, and then unload into a weak point with a Boltblaster with Sustained Burst (basically rapid autofire). That's my favorite way to kill Fireclaws without damaging their sac webbing. Edit: Yara is at Scalding Spear. Arrowhand is the small settlement where you meet Drakka. Thanks, I just cant find Yarra at Scalding Spear???

No Melee pits or trials or any of that stuff for me. I know I suck I don't need it rubbed in my face, only do Cauldrons under sufferance. Have not come across Bulwark yet.

Racked up 50+ hours in game so far, fair few yesterday over two playing sessions and did a lot of not much. Discovered two new Cauldrons and didn't do either of them and was happy to honestly just explore and do what came up. Main quest thing I did was to help some people in a village that got hit by a Mud Slide. Was very tedious, HZD FW is giving me AC Valhalla vibes I don't see myself playing it again though HZD FW does have NG+ whereas AC Valhalla (and I still cannot believe it) didn't. A lot of good quests mired in tedium and puzzles. I did find playing after having a few glasses of wine helped last night, I just didn't stress or care and wandered around killing everything and finding Campfires. Mudslide people Power Ranger time - Valor Surge in 3, 2, 1 Took some Drone or Black Box data back to base and had a long chat with Zo Took this picture, can't remember why

So Cauldron Iota only took me 1 hour and 25 minutes. I got to the first override thing and thought I had stuffed something up, it took me ages going back to old saves to figure out I hadn't then there was one set of jumps climbing some blades jumping to another and then doing a sideways jump which I failed probably ten times. Game took pity on me and started me next time past that jump. View at the end was good but not sure it was worth it, can someone tell me why an RPG needs platforming in it? You should be able to skip past those parts. If I don't need to do them all that will be the last one (maybe). Photo Mode

The Pits work very strangely. I recommend watching a YouTube tutorial for the pit challenge in question. You can't trust your eyes and simply execute the moves. You have to string together the key presses in precisely the prescribed method and rhythm. It is really weird. The Pits are probably the only gameplay element in this game that I don't find brilliant. They're still worth doing for the story and reward; and they really do teach you how to be great in melee. I was a real beast for half a playthrough; then I forgot everything I knew.

Just did a quest for Yarra to find a lost child and that was fun!!!! Anyone order a Thunderjaw with a side of Stormbird? Fight wasn't too bad but would have been over sooner if Yarra hadn't kept Spike Trapping Aloy with an electric trap. This is the third Thunderjaw I have fought (maybe 4th) and they all seem to have a get to 1% health and you cannot do any damage card to play, very annoying. I hog tied the Storm Bird with electric Ropes and activated the Ranged Valor Surge and knocked out the last 50% of it's health for the win!!!!!

I have a question....Are the Cauldrons kinda like the caves that Lara could explore off the beaten path? I rememember those caves in Rise of the Tomb Raider being a lot of fun, or even the Chambers in Jedi Survivor...I haven't yet explored a Cauldron (that I am aware of) so I hope they're like a Cave from Tomb Raider.

I am a bit surprised here, haven't you played the first game? Cauldrons were in HZD too.
The main benefit of doing a Cauldron is getting additional override codes, so you can override more machines apart from Chargers. Cauldron TAU is part of the main story (pretty early), and I have a sneaking suspicion GEMINI is as well.

Yes, I have played Zero Dawn but to be honest I forget most of the gameplay as it's been over a year since I played it. I don't remember 'specifics' of gameplay environments or all the nitty-gritty, little detail type stuff that you might find if you were in the 100% Club. Not assuming you are part one of those players who likes to 100% games-- my hat's off to you if you do- I could never do that...But I recognize that for players who really spend that much time on any game they're bound to notice details that other players don't. Maybe once I come across a Cauldron specifically, I will recognize it and remember the gameplay type or the type of environment. I just can't think of what they're like off the top of my head.

I recommend watching a YouTube tutorial for the pit challenge in question.
I did watch a video, which clearly shows hitting the first guy, jumping over him, and then hitting the second guy. But when I hit the first guy, the trial fails/fades to black - I don't get the chance to jump or hit the second guy at all.

Did you play MEA ever? The Cauldrons, visually speaking, are very similar to the Vaults in that game. And if you played Frozen Wilds, the Cauldron is part of the main quest, so you had to do it.

I recommend watching a YouTube tutorial for the pit challenge in question.
I did watch a video, which clearly shows hitting the first guy, jumping over him, and then hitting the second guy. But when I hit the first guy, the trial fails/fades to black - I don't get the chance to jump or hit the second guy at all. That's the weird disconnect between the Pits and standard gameplay. You have to press the buttons with a precise rhythm that has little to do with what your eyes and reflexes are telling you. It's more like playing a quick-time event than practicing melee combat. If you're automatically failing, it's because the game detects that you already missed the correct timing of the second move. It's annoying. Once you figure out the cadence it wants, it's pretty easy. Until then, it's infuriating. You pretty much have to string the sequence together as one continuous move, pausing only for in-game cues like that little flash on the tip of the spear. I wish the Pits were more intuitive. I don't understand why there's such a dissonance between in-game combat and Pits combat. It's weird.

I"ve entered the 1st Cauldron and suddenly I've completely lost all functionality of my RT using my Controller.....It was working earlier today, and I've also checked it playing other games (Zero Dawn, Jedi Survivor etc....It works perfectly in those games as it should). Why have I lost it in this section so suddenly? I have to rely on RB to make any sort of attack.
My KB/M has "assumed direct control".....My KB/M is attempting Indoctrination!
PLease help! Every other button or trigger works just fine, and the RT does actually work as intended in other games.....Just not here, now, in the Cauldron! But I need it! please help.
I've struggled for some time to complete the first Cauldron because most of the buttons on my Controller are not functioning at all! PLease....I would appreciate some suggestions on how to resolve this because I can't do anything except move and swing my spear using RB even though I want to do things like Jump or use my Pullcaster, or fire Arrows.....I can't do any of that! It was working earlier today....Why has it suddenly stopped now?
