Learn where to find the Berserker Hunter Bow in Horizon Forbidden West, its stats, upgrade costs, and how to use its unique Berserk Hunter Arrows to turn machines against each other.

Crafted by the Quen, the Berserker Hunter Bow is a mid-range weapon in Horizon Forbidden West that can inflict the Berserk status on enemies, causing them to attack each other. It can also be used to direct the attacks of overridden machines.

Location: The Berserker Hunter Bow is found inside a Superior Supply Chest in The Greenhouse facility. You will encounter this location during the main story quest, "Seeds of the Past." When you reach the Quen camp before meeting an important NPC, look for a chest under one of the tents. You'll need to pry it open with your spear.
