Horizon Zero Dawn embarks with Ela of the Nora tribe on a journey through a mysterious world ruled by deadly machines. To survive in this dangerous land, you will have to learn to defeat not only monsters of steel, but also enemies of flesh and blood. Here's how to pass the Crash Test.

How is the crash test completed in Horizon Zero Dawn?

Once you've spoken to the guardian and agreed to take the test, don't go downstairs immediately. You have to prepare some things first and you don't want to run out of time. For this challenge, a good slingshot capable of firing shock bullets and a Sharpshot bow with burst arrows are recommended. If you don't have a proper sling, you can use a shock trap or tripcaster with a shock rope. This is not an ideal solution, but it will help in a pinch. Normal arrows also work if you don't have explosion arrows, but they will take longer. Whatever you do, don't use fire arrows. If you are missing something, there is a shopkeeper next to the Guardian.

When you're ready, use the rope to go down to the hunting ground. Bellowback is the largest robot, but there are several others to watch out for. Try not to be discovered before the first shot.

Ready a slingshot with shock ammo and shoot the bellows. It won't go down in one shot, you'll need at least two. A small blue counter will appear above the bellows. When it's full, the machine will go down and the other counter will start going down. Indicates the duration of the status effect. After he has fallen, quickly run towards him. Canisters are open to deal damage, so grab your bow with blast arrows and shoot. You can use your Focus to see exactly where the boats are. They should drop after one shot. If the Bellowsback rises before you get all three canisters off, simply repeat the process until you are successful.

If you use conventional arrows, it will take a few shots for the canister to detach. If you're using shock cords or traps, you'll need to draw the bellows into the trap. All of this takes time, which is expensive in hunting tests. That's why the slingshot + burst combo works best. Once you're done, head back to the gatekeeper. Don't forget that you don't have to kill the bellows, so you can escape once you get all three canisters.
