The Longleg is an ostrich-like of machine that you will encounter in Horizon Zero Dawn. They can jump and deal elemental damage. These machines are quick on their feet. You will encounter them in missions as well as in dungeons. In this Horizon Zero Dawn guide, we are going to go over how you can kill a Longleg.
How To Kill A Longleg In Horizon Zero Dawn
The body of the Longleg is weak against Shock damage so you can use shock ammo and shock weapons to fire at its body in order to deal high damage.
Under its head on its front side, there is a concussion sac. This is a weak point that is weak against all kinds of ammo. Destroy it to trigger an explosion and deal high amounts of damage. It is also going to disable the sonic attack of the machine and make the encounter a lot easier.
On the head, the machine has alarm signals that it uses to communicate with other machines. Use tear arrows in order to destroy the component and the machine will not be able to call reinforcements.
On the back, the machine has a power cell. Shooting this with shock ammo is going to trigger a shock explosion that is going to shock other machines in the area as well. If you use tear arrows then you can remove the component and pick it up later.
Another weak spot of the machine is the wing. It is weak against all damage types so you can shoot at it with pretty much anything and deal high damage.
