[@sonobii]

I wish the game had more Deathbringers to fight or a site to visit as other machines. i love facing them. i was actually wondering about how you'd play this battle in particular the other day, glad this video just came outta nowhere. you rule, as always :))

[@aloyversus409]

Same with the Corrupters. I know they're directly connected with the plot, but it'd still be cool to record more Deathbringer/Corrupter videos without having to restart the entire game. Haha, what a cool coincidence! And thank you! :D

[@Dragiot]

I heard there is a place corrupters spawn, but idk where

[@CorrSave]

@@aloyversus409 One way that could have been done, would be to incorporate them as a post-game quest. Something like, the deactivation signal did not reach all of the reactivated Corruptors and Deathbringers, so now you would have to bring them down yourself. On the other hand... The implication of some players leaving them to ravage the land (because it would be an optional quest), would hurt the game and story more than it would do good. I have to say though, the lack of post-game content is one of the very, very few shortcomings of HZD. Sure, there's a lot to do, but I did all the side quests and almost everything of the other stuff before doing the final main quest. I'm definitely not a fan of games-as-a-service, I would have appreciated a tiny bit of it though, something like weekly hunters lodge competitions or so.

[@aloyversus409]

@@CorrSave I'm in love with both the signal idea and weekly challenges/competitions!

Oh hell, this is gonna be good. I struggled with the final fight on normal, I can only imagine what a nightmare it is on UH. I’m missing yet another premiere ‘cause of work so I’ll have to wait till later 😣

[@aloyversus409]

The DLC Banuk weapons totally make the difference. I just wish there was a DLC sling, too... There'll be a few more premieres in the future! In the meantime, stay safe at work and see you soon! :)

Geez this was badass. You’re insane without the crosshair. I hope we get to fight a Horus/Metal Devil in The Forbidden West.

[@aloyversus409]

I can't even imagine what weapons you'd need for that fight... :O

[@Dragiot]

Mabey a new weapon, a type of ooverriden deathbringer

[@vaishnav_mallya]

We maybe able to override corrupters and deathbringers. The tribe shown in the trailer used machines as their weapons and the mercenary tribe which attacked the proving controlled the corruptors.

[@MusicToYourComputer]

I have a healthy respect for deathbringers. I was rather worried for you and aloy there... especially when the corruptor kicked in- they're a pain ! But amazing as always!

[@aloyversus409]

Yeah, that Corruptor threw me off completely. Haven't fought one in ages!

Never has a boss in any game been more aptly named than the DeathBringer. That thing kicks a ton of ass. Clinical disposal as always. I struggled with this fight - I think watching you I was tactically scared 😂 Razor sharp wrecking as always 🤘

[@aloyversus409]

I was pretty surprised when I saw this version of the Deathbringer. Totally expected one of the tinier models from previous missions, not this hulk, lol. Thanks, man! :D

[@BillBuckingham]

@@aloyversus409 Oh yes, agreed. The first one went down fairly easily, the second a little tougher, but this thing was a beast. Fantastic battle. Really shows off the PlayStation at its best. Roll on H:FW 🤘

[@aloyversus409]

@@BillBuckingham totally! As excited as I am for HFW, I've really been looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077! Another fantastic world to get lost in. (Unless it gets delayed again, lol. You know it was announced in 2012?! 8 years ago!!!!)

[@alexglau4886]

Damn, man, I'm scared of how many times you restarted this fight. Or..? :))

[@aloyversus409]

This was my second recording. The whole endgame mission takes forever to restart, so I had to make sure I got a good recording.

[@caramel_heaven]

I beat it even b4 the corruptors wave somehow, on UH... Tho I did spam a lot of fire arrows to bring it up to overheat

[@jaytsigma]

I was definitely beatable I beat it many times, explosives work awesome with the best coils you can possibly get on the lodge blast sling and maybe the best terrible you want to use of course with some tear arrows but the awesome coils to the max but not that hard of a fight but it takes a lot of damage!

[@aaronscottmatthews7883]

I dig how the final boss is just this full-on militaristic Kill-bot

[@aloyversus409]

And how Aloy drops it with a metal bow and arrow, haha.

[@randomaccountwithmusic4206]

I just find a place it can't hit me "Spoiler there are a lot" And hit it with heavy arrows until I loot the corpse

Long as it goes down in the end! :)

[@bruradagast]

awesome skill, as always! but do you know that explosives deal only 30% of normal damage to Deathbringers? :) so, pretty much only for cinematic value

[@aloyversus409]

I actually did NOT know that, but that makes a lot of sense. Haha, you're always on it when it comes to percentages and weapon damage!

Nice job! And you unlocked face paints!

[@chricy2009]

If I’m honest, death ringer was kinda of a let down. I will admit it took me multiple attempts because I used to suck at horizon, but it’s just another deathbringer in a huge arena. We just killed like 15 of them. I think they should have done something where the AI worked on a incredibly powerful machine body to walk across the earth rather than just corrupt a deathbringer I know it’s intense but I was still disappointed, at least the fireclaw in frozen wilds was quite different than the frostclaws :p

[@aloyversus409]

Agreed. That's really why I never posted the final boss battle: it's really not all that exciting, especially not having to take on 15 mini-Bringers and like 1000 Corrupted machines.

It was rather easy on ultra hard. You just have to hide behind pillars while spamming triple shot with hardpoint arrow. You do have to be careful of the second wave of extra machines tho. Basically just run, hide and hit it's weakspot
