Burrowers are expert diggers in Horizon Forbidden West, and players will often find them tunneling underground during combat. They use a sound attack to disorient Aloy, but that can be dodged easily. Use Aloy’s Focus to reveal all the weak points on the Burrower before attacking it.
Players can detach components like the Soundshell and Resource Container from the Burrower by hitting them with Tear-damage arrows. The following components are available after defeating Burrowers:
Defeating the Burrower without detaching its components first will not reward players with the best loot. Similarly, using Silent Strike on Burrowers destroys these detachable components and removes them from the loot. To override Burrowers, players will need to visitCauldron MUlocated nearNo Man’s Land.
