Not true. I've tried zooming all the way out and in and the campfire icon still won't show up. It has to be a bug and I hope a widespread one so there can be a chance they might fix it.

80 hours later. Boom, done!!
Yes, yes, I see the new game+.
But that is a 4k HDR exclusive trophy. Played all 80 on my 1080p tv. Another Horizon playthrough deserves 4k HDR, so I am definitely saving it for that. Ultra shouldn't be too hard. Frozen Wilds character will the best mods and outfit at level 60.
Holy shit you platinumed thevgame and 100% the DLC in 80 hours? Jesus Christ do I waste a lot of time sightseeing. I platinumed the game in 85 and am 105 in and close to finishing the DLC but with 50% of DLC trophies still lacking.

Heh, I didn't rush either. Mind you, I'm missing quite a few datapoints. But yeah, not sure how you are 15 hours over me. I'm gonna go ahead and assume sightseeing......for 15 hours. lol.
Yeah. I got 100% everything in about 90 hours including all datapoints. I did a lot of exploring too, like manually uncovering every inch of the map I could before even going for the tallnecks and I crafted every single ammo pouch upgrade. An extra 10 or so hours isn't really all that much at this scale though.

Hot damn
Still scratching the surface of the sheer content of what's happening in The Frozen Wilds. So good.
This is the best DLC I've played since The Old Hunters and Blood & Wine. Easily better than that excuse of an expansion that I paid for Zelda. Wish it took a page out of this.

Well, do you want to cheat? I didn't, but if you want to, you can.
Switch the difficulty to "story". Your arrows will rip through machines like they are paper.
I'm on NG+, so I can't change the difficulty. Normal difficulty.
What part of the hunting grounds are you having trouble with on normal?
lol all of them honestly, doing that shit speedily is tough as hell. i probably need to just suck it up and be insanely wasteful with ammo, though
as for the 'fourth' trial, I can probably do that one well as long as I'm super careful about saving the hardpoint arrows for the end
On normal you should just be blasting through the machines in no time. Stack +damage mods on your hard point arrows and go to town. If you have the upgraded icerail and/or stormslinger, they will wreck everything.
Because you have to collect materials from non-daemonic machines.
Use this?

Or, use a whole lot of Blast Bombs in the second and third trials (and use the log traps in the first part of the Chieftain trial and Ikrie's trial).
Freeze + spamming Sticky Bombs is a nice and low-skill way to cheese pretty much any fight. When done right you can pretty much stun lock everything.
EDIT: Huge patch that addresses several of the progression bugs people have (like the Insulated Outfit Weave failing to spawn, for instance) announced.

Saw this in the official guide, I always thought the damage scaling between very and ultra hard wasn't too much and this confirms it.

I feel that the biggest difference between VH and UH is that, on UH, all aggro-ed enemies will attack you simultaneously, relentlessly, whereas lower difficulties they kind of take turns. That makes some encounters much more difficult to manage.

Excellent. I was just reaching that point and wondering if I'd have to sell something off.
In ultra hard the robots have a radius of vision boost and attacks/aftercast have less delay.
I have the same trophies, 100% in both the main game and The Frozen Wilds. Only two trophies I'm missing are the NG+ ones. I actually finished it last night. My play time is 63 hours and I wasn't rushing at all. Took lots of screenshots, random exploring, revisiting areas, etc. I honestly don't even know how someone would get to 100 hours.
When I got my platinum (first week of HZD launch), I had 105 hours.
Funny that most people don't have that Ultra Hard and finish on NG+ trophy. I do, and it's made me unable to change the difficulty in the DLC without playing the whole game over again. Ultra Hard in this game is no joke :(.
I don't know how that's humanly possible on a first playthrough.
What difficulty are you on? Be honest.
I stumbled upon that exact same spot last night, and did the same thing, some other machine became involved with the tramplers, but it sure was fun to watch.
Did NOT even think about doing this. I have not found a use for any of the new weapons as they use up so many resources and I'm about to restart the UH NG+ using the DLC gear, and wanted to save some resources.
This was my method in my original UH NG+ outing, but then you end up having to grind for "wire" resources as you run out so amazingly fast.
Normal difficulty. Main game 100% was just under 50 hours if I remember correctly and The Frozen Wilds 100% was about 13-14. Only way I can imagine some of these super long play times is NG+ added on, some of the harder difficulties, never fast travelling, or some combination. It obviously doesn't matter at all, I was just surprised some people had 100 hours. Another idea is that maybe you guys were getting all datapoints and stuff. I just did everything that there was a trophy for.
Difficulty definitely was a factor. I'm playing on hard and I got my ass kicked repeatedly so that's a thing for sure. Also taking down enemies on hard I assume must take longer due to less damage being made or them having higher HP or both.

It does, but more than that, it gives you some extensive late game content for when you've powered up to the point where you've had to up the difficulty to keep the challenge. It also gives you some new very powerful weapons that would seem to work well in Ultra Hard NG+. After I 100% the DLC, I'm going to restart NG+ with that save and find out.
Yes, Frostclaws and Scorchers gang bang you constantly. They can be fairly far away and then be on you within a second with their leap attack or ranged moves. There's also the fact that you're low on resources 24/7 on UH.

Damage received is still quite a lot more though.
Have you installed the latest patch? They have addressed this issue.
Are you able to spoiler post the actual contents of the datapoints? Thanks.
True, but shield weaver makes that mostly irrelevant. You absorb that damage, recover health and get back in the fight.
Go post in the patch notes thread on reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/horizon/comments/7funt5/horizon_zero_dawn_145_patch_notes/
I haven't found the Shield Weaver too useful on Ultra Hard. One or two quick hits from a strong enemy completely wipes out the shield leaving you with zero protection for several seconds.
True, but that's where the overheal potions come in handy. Also, UH strategy is not getting hit :P
