Best Weapons to Use in Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores
Here are the top 5 weapons players can use during their exploration in the new area introduced in DLC Burning Shores:
1. The Skykiller
It is a Spike Thrower and arguably the best weapon in its class. Players can unlock this weapon after they complete the whole story of Horizon Forbidden West. After completing the main story quest, players simply need to go to Legacy’s landfall and talk to the lady on the Boat to start a new quest for the weapon. Defeat some enemies for the quest and you will be rewarded with this weapon. Skykiller packs a lot of punch and can deal a great amount of damage to enemies.
2. The Blast Forge
It is a very powerful Boltblaster aka “Machine Gun” which can penetrate armor and deal a lot of damage. In order to get the weapon, players need to participate in the Mow Arena and earn 80 medals. After earning 80 medals, players need to go southwest and trade the merchant 80 medals for the Blast Forge. It is a machine gun so it can make you slow while running with it but the damage makes up for it.
3. Death Seeker’s Shadow
It is a Hunters bow and deals powerful damage to the enemies. In order to unlock this weapon, players need to participate in the Mow Arena and earn 80 medals just like for the Blast Forge. After earning 80 medals, players need to go southwest and trade the merchant 80 medals.
4. Blacktide Bow
It is a Sharpshot bow and deals a lot of damage. It is kind of slow while equipping but deals a lot of damage and has a very good range. In order to get the Blacktide Bow, players can get the bow from the merchant in the Blacktide Bow or also if the players pre-ordered the DLC, they will receive the Blacktide Bow and Blacktide Dye outfit as a reward.
5. Ancestor’s Return
It is a Shredder Gauntlet and deals a huge amount of damage but needs a little bit of practice to master. But the Ancestor’s return is worth the practice as with its massive amount of damage. In order to unlock this weapon, players need to complete all nine ruin challenges and then hand over the ornament to the Stemmur in Hidden Ember.
