There are a total of six extensive skill trees in Horizon Forbidden West for Aloy to invest in. These trees are named Warrior, Trapper, Hunter, Survivor, Infiltrator, and Machine Master. Each skill tree has a specific weapon type and fighting style that it enhances. We’ll break down each of these trees and what players need to know before investing in them.
Warrior Skill Tree
The Warrior skill tree focuses on giving Aloy more melee attacks and enhanced skills with the warrior bow type. This tree offers a good amount of support to a player who wants to be in closer range with their enemies. Here are all the skills available in this tree.

Trapper Skill Tree
The Trapper skill, much like it sounds, focuses on giving Aloy boosts to her traps and tripwires. This includes an increase in the number she can put down at one point in time. On top of adding boons, it also adds skills specific to the tripcaster and ropecaster.
Hunter Skill Tree
The Hunter skill tree focuses on enabling Aloy to deal more damage from afar with the Boltblaster and Hunter bows. This is one of the most necessary skill trees across playstyles within Horizon Forbidden West. These abilities will push Aloy to become the best archer around.
Survivor Skill Tree
The Survivor skill tree focuses on giving Aloy a larger capacity to heal while in danger. On top of making the potions better and offering a natural health regeneration, there are two weapon types that the Survivor skill tree gives skills to. These include the shredder gauntlet and bomb slings.
Infiltrator Skill Tree
Stealth is a great ability to have out in the wilds when dealing with machines that overpower the player. The Infiltrator skill tree allows Aloy to be less detectable when outside of the red grass as well as boons to stealth attacks. This tree also grants skills to the Sharpshot and Hunter bows.

Machine Master Skill Tree
Machine Master is a skill tree that boosts Aloy’s override abilities. This ability will become more and more useful as the player completes more of the Cauldrons across the game. These skills will boost the overridden machine’s health, damage, and more.
