Panthera 07/23/18 8:50:13 AM #138:	A surprisingly uneventful trip north ensues. I say that because I came across a pair of Thunderjaws wandering together, saw a Stormbird in the distance, saw another Stormbird that I passed somewhat close to (man you can see Stormbirds and Thunderjaws from a mile away), saw two Longlegs and a Sawtooth fighting some bandits (the bandits won, oddly enough), came across another Thunderjaw with some Longlegs, saw some Snapmaws, passed by a Behemoth convoy...and yet a single Scrapper is all I actually fought. Hooray? That brings me to what seems like the last campfire before I head on up to what I assume will be either the last or second last part of the game (just a matter of whether everything finishes off up here or if we go back to Meridian/Sunfall to settle the Carja civil war down there as well, unless I'm wrong and the plot manages to find even more for me to do). This might be another stretch where I forego the detailed summary of events because I'm too caught up in it to take a break... Well, first up I have to climb up and deal with some Stalkers. Haven't seen those in ages, only ever killed the one that showed up on that one side quest way back when. Waaaayyyy back when...these things are no slouches when you have to deal with multiple. Looks like kind of a long walk to my destination so I guess I will be providing some detail as I go along for now. There seem to be some motion detecting mines on the ground that shoot up flares when I go nearby (or hit them with a rock or arrow), I guess those are there to make it harder to just sneak past the entire encounter? A snowstorm begins as we climb up some conveniently placed handholds (got to love these yellow poles just stuck everywhere I need to go, don't know where I'd be without them), and it looks like there's Glinthawks to deal with. Yay. Okay several Glinthawks and two Ravagers and some Redeye Watchers. That could have gone a lot smoother, didn't see just how many enemies there were before I alerted them. Turned what should have been a nice slow shooting gallery into a frantic scramble. Still quite a ways to go, I'm going to assume there will probably be at least two more encounters before I get inside this place...and then probably Eclipse or something shows up once I do. At least there's a vantage along the way for me to collect. But before I can get to that, I come up a cliff, and...Stormbird time. I had a feeling one of these would appear before too long. Holy every lasting shit that thing was brutal. Forget the Thunderjaw, forget the Deathbringer, THIS thing is a monster. Also it makes sounds that remind me of Legiana in Monster Hunter World, but that's neither here nor there. Seems to be easily lit on fire, but it doesn't crash like Glinthawks do nor does it take much damage from it, and the rest of its parts seem to take an incredible number of hits to actually break. Endless HP, hits like a truck, leaves huge area of effect pools down behind it, has nasty melee attacks even on the ground...wow. Aloy even comments after that she hopes that's the biggest guard Gaia has, and I agree whole heartedly (and the machine catalogue suggests it is, at least!). Hopefully that was the last encounter up here before whatever awaits me inside my destination. Well, going to collect this vantage and then head on in. If this is the endgame, it looks like I'll be finished with this game fairly soon. --- Meow! <cite>Panthera posted [p:905570912] in Any intere...
