Lawyers are still debating over wheather that was a one shot, 20 shots or none shot kill...

I really thought the player was going to run and slide under the thunderhead to hit some secret spot with his now ad one shot the machine... Silly me.

RIP the 100 grazzers that died to get that amount of blaze.

The fact that this game has so many ways to kills the machines and each player has their own playstyle, I really can't wait for HFW

2:00 The way he freezes when thunderjaw's near and resumes setting up traps again is very cute :)

Great, another video claiming a one-shot kill that is really a 20 shot kill.

Now, let's try this on a Stormbird

Aloy: and now, my most elaborate traps Also Aloy:

There's also another trick that can be used to easily kill the Thunderjaw without even getting hit by him. Just go to the Sun Furrows Hunting Grounds and jump to the lower level of the hill (you can't shoot from the highest spot since it's a starting point for hunting trials). Then start shooting at the Thunderjaw located below. Use tearblast arrows to get rid of his disc launchers and cannons first and he won't be able to attack you. Even if he gets very close, there's nothing he can do from below (his only range attack left is laser sweep but it shouldn't hit you through the rocks). Just watch out for Ravagers and Watchers wandering around. Most of the time they will remain in yellow state and won't get close to you but occasionally one of them may get close enough to attack.

Tear blaster arrows to take out the disc launchers, knock 3 ice arrows and shoot. While the “frozen” animation is playing out grab the disc launchers and fire at will. Repeat. if there is any remaining Health aim for the thunder jaws sides at the thing that looks like a big heating element with sharpshooter arrows or hard point arrows. Can be completed all in under 2 mins roughly.

I'm a fan of stacking blast wires too

My first encounter with a Thunder Jaw: 3 spear strikes, 100 damage, I soon died. Level 20. Thank you. I will show myself out.

I already know the trick but I still like to watch it ‘cause it’s fun

Your level is maxed at 50, suggesting you're playing a lower difficulty then Normal, which caps at 60. The thunderjaw will have less health at lower difficulty levels.

Haha. Great! I haven't got this far in the game yet but I figured this out when I did the first cauldron mission. BOOM! 🤣

I laughed my ass off. When Aloy whistled..like here boy..and then baaaang! Once thunderjaw moved its leg - you know it's the end.

Freeze, shoot off the guns then freeze again and shoot arrows. Way more fun than just blasting it. Plus u get more stuff

idk how i never thought about this. Great strat!

Thats a lot of damage !

Gotta say that was pretty damn impressive ... Never thought of that 😳

The first time I saw a thunderjaw I laid down blast wires like mad. Guess how surprised I was when I started attacking it at a distance and it began using all its long range weapons

Man, to think I used this 5 years ago to kill my first thunderjaw. And now with forbidden west, there are even more ways to kill this beast

All the machines nearby be like: what the heck why did he just explode

I do this and it brings rico from penguins in my mind every bloody time like he would just be like KABOOM

That's a one BOOM kill. I like it!

The Thunderjaw looks like a T-Rex that had its arms amputated

That was awesome! Gonna try it out

I love that! I’m gonna try it.

Thought I was the only one who maxes out that gun just for big bois XD

Ropecaster, then tearblaster, the freeze it, then ropecaster (optional), then 3-notch damage the heart part

Just wait until they find out about the 4000 damage icerail thing

Love this weapon! With the help of the Blast Wire (upgraded with damage), I was killing almost all enemies on Ultra Hard. Totally OP.

Thank u!!!!! It toook me hours trying to kill one but now i can thanks!

Gimli: "that still only counts as one!"

I am not impressed until someone shows me a Stormbird oneshot :D

thats insane keep up the content!:)

honestly dont give a damn at this point. i keeo dying from this bad boy and now ik i can kill it with my tripcaster. its not that im a noob its that im level 9 and trying to kill it to get a shadow weapon. thanks for your help

Me when fighting it: **does all my pro moves and drinks all my potions** Him:Boom! Me:worth the try?

Well it's better than taking a lot of time killing one monster when there are others nearby and being surrounded

Good thing for this. Good idea! I died twice trying to find a way to kill thunderjaw will try this!

Nicely done, know now what I'm stocking resources on.

Title should be "How to turn a trip caster into a nuclear bomb"

“1 shot *easy* kill!” Noobs: are you sure about that?

What dificulty is this. Give us soms context please

The first time o saw one of those I put so many wire traps down I think I used every resource I had. I think there was enough explosion to make GAIA be like that hurt.

That's exactly my style. Haha

Technically that was not a one shot kill. Lol. :) And I have done that as well, but you did it way before me. :D

Thats soo satisfying when he step on it!!!

Freaking Awesome

Wow crazy awesome idea

Clean

You can easily kill the rock breaker by using hardpoint or precision arrows to shoot the big blaze sack it has but easy to die as well

My problem here is they don't show you what difficulty they had this on.

I really need to replay this game

He broke the laws of physics!!!!!

*Logic increased to 9000 level*

I wanted to see just how strong a ravager gun was so i went on this long trek with that heavy thing and tried it on a thunder jaw. I personally like to have to run and dodge and all that stuff so i don’t think I’d use that or this option but u know, it you’re desperate for good parts then i guess do what u need lol

brilliant!

I admit easier than my usual method of using the sound arrow things to blow the rocket launcher off and then shoot it with its own rockets.

The good ole days! Can’t do this in Forbidden West. 😞

Anyone else play Baldur's Gate 2? I remember doing the same thing there. You could kill a dragon (who wasn't initially hostile) by just laying 20 traps around him, then aggroing him. The moment he went hostile, boom, dead. Fun times.

I wonder if they’ll let this happen in the new one

You even need a lot of munition, just with 6 or 5 explosion you can kill him easy, but no one shot

Super!

I prefer to take it down the old way

Look at the shadow tripcaster. Damage 575

i wonder if the material used was recovered by the kill...

My favorite way to take down thunder jaws is by setting up two electric trip wires before hand, then blasting off both his disk launchers with purple tear arrows to get it to chase me. Once it trips my trap, it stuns it giving me time to use the disk launchers. I only wish storm birds were that easy lol

My Favourite method is to use Tear Blast arrow to shoot off the disc launcher on the thunderjaws back. run like hell to pick it up and destroy it with its own weapon.

I luv blast wire but it is too expensive hahaha! Freeze Arrow + Hardpoint Arrow will do :)

This reminds me of Techies of Dota 2.

Alt title : how to lazily beat cauldron zeta

Which difficult level? Should not possible on extra heavy, or?

Plus, y'know having a Shadow Tripcaster with max rarity mods helps

I dunno how others can keep their blast wires on same spot without it dissolving/disappearing... Coz when I do that, even with just 3 blast wires in one spot, it'll disappear in like under 15secs, such a waste of wires for preparation for battle especially when fighting those giants (thunderjaw, fireclaw etc), so I always make like a pattern instead and lure them on the spots I put the trap...

Thanks YT, nice recommendation, since i haven't touched Horizon Zero Dawn in almost 4 Years..

correct me if im wrong but i thought that you can only place 8 trips at once after that every time you put a new down the earliest despawns

That one was a real blast

would be funnier if he just swap cloth and stand up XD that stealth armor is too OP

*Agrees* 12 shots (because there were twelve wires set up) still means not a “one shot kill”.

I miss this game

Get the ancient armor, after that you can just beat the thunderjaw to death using your spear.

cool but i still find it more fun to freeze and ripfire with shadow bow

So if you put damage mods in the tripcaster and then shoot trip lines and then remove the damage mods to put in your bow to kick off a fight do the trip lines still retain the high damage from the damage mods that were in the tripcaster when you shot the tripwires?

Dang that’s clever

Use the shock wave arrows (forgot the name) three to the back near the cannons and it'll knock both of them off

Thats brutal

that's just savage

Hey super cool 😎

LMAO Seriously? There was absolutely no fight. It's fun to fight them and with traps, tripcaster, & ropecaster it'll go quicker. A bit of both makes it fun. This move is just too quick. Clever but quick. I think the context in which the term "one shot" was used is lost on some folks. After watching I understand it to mean one attempt or one try.

OMG That was Beautiful.

the movement of an old man

That was awesome. I've got my adept tripcaster all moded out to do major damage on the blast setting too.

Techies approved

he stepped on a lego brick :(

But does it also work on the Demonic FireClaw?

I'll have to remember that.

3:06 Thuderjaw To Tramplers: HEY GUYS DID YOU HEAR THAT ???

Do not hesitate

Blast wires are so OP, love em' when im in a pinch or just dont feel like fighting for 5 mins. Btw im probably near the end and i am soo hooked on this game, damn, comes close to best ive played. Just sad it dont like to run on my pretty decent rig that runs most games like nothing. With this i got to play low settings. Wow im actually righting a poem, jeez Anyway i love Aloy, such a sassy and cute character, well lets just say goddess
