      Sky Thunderjaw Can Be Stormbird But Dreadwing Has Radars, Antennas, Bombs So It's Sky Thunderjaw

    It's like a combination between The red-eyed Watcher and Glinthawk!

    The Skydrifter is obnoxious the first time Aloy encounters them, because she’s (usually) underleveled with a limited arsenal at that point. After that, though… these are one of the weakest machines in the game. They are very susceptible to Frost, and once the Frost state is fully applied, it’s easy to blow off the razor tail and destroy the Skydrifter.

      Early on my trick was to get behind them and hit the sparker with a shock arrow which knocks them down when it explodes then shoot off their tail.

    Wow! I am so impressed with this series, I’ve always loved observing and finding hidden abilities about machines in horizon! One of my favourite abilities for machines is the antenna used to spawn in more machines to help them, a bunch on machines “have” these in the notebook but don’t appear to be using them in the wilds. Overall an interesting topic!

    • @unknown_2552
      @unknown_2552  Před rokem +2

      Some don’t even spawn with them! I have yet to find a thunderjaw with an antenna, even though it’s in the machine catalog

    • @invadeandraid
      @invadeandraid Před rokem +2

      @@unknown_2552 Yeah, it’s a mysterious ability, once I spent ages travelling all over trying to see a tremortusk with one, but they just wouldn’t spawn. Then in the arena fights the tremortusk had one, but couldn’t even use it in that scenario. I wonder why they spent time adding antenna to half the machines if they can’t spawn with them 🤔

    Love your vids man! Say, usually how long does it take to record one whole episode?

    • @unknown_2552
      @unknown_2552  Před 2 lety +1

      Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoy them! Recording itself doesn’t take too long - usually ranges from 2-4 hours for all the clips and maybe 30 minutes for the voice recording. The editing itself takes the longest - maybe 4-8 hours per video? That’s as long as my computer doesn’t poop out on me before my auto save kicks in 😝
