How to tag enemies and machine parts with your focus in Horizon Forbidden West
When approaching any given machine threat, especially those unknown to you, it’s best to understand what you’re up against before committing. By scanning the machine, you will learn its strengths and weaknesses, as well as the important parts that allow it to function.
This can remove attacks from your arsenal, expose more weak points, or generate valuable resources to make you even stronger in the long run. It is extremely important to get this right.
- Approach the enemy stealthily
- Hold Right Analog Stick/R3 to activate Focus Scan
- Tag enemies with R2 to see where they are at all times
- Select the part you want to target by using left and right on the d-pad to cycle through them, and press Triangle to label that part.
By making sure you know where the enemies are, as well as the parts you want to rip out or keep intact for valuable resources, you can ensure that Aloy comes out of every encounter with a ripe harvest.
That’s everything you need to know about how to tag enemies and machine parts with your Focus in Horizon Forbidden West.
