In Horizon Forbidden West, the Snapmaw machine will rely heavily on melee and close-range attacks and will have the ability to do Frost elemental damage if players get hit. A great tactic for facing off against these machines is to target theirPurgewater Canisterson top of their necks. If these are shot with Purgewater Arrows, they will explode and deal massive damage to the Snapmaw. Taking out the machine’sChillwater Sacwill also be helpful as it will disable their ability to do Frost damage in battle.
