Master the Sun Furrows Hunting Grounds in Horizon Zero Dawn with our guide. Learn strategies for the Ravager vs. Machines, Thunderjaw vs. Ravager, and Ravager Control trials.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Fast travel to the Campfire north of Rockwreath.
  2. 2
    Take the northeastern path from the fork, ignoring the southeast road.
  3. 3
    Continue north-northeast into a canyon to a second fork.
  4. 4
    Head uphill to the north to find Sun Furrows Hunting Grounds.
  5. 5
    The quarry contains Watchers, Ravagers, and a Thunderjaw.

Trials:

Ravager vs. Machines Trial

  1. Take the center zipline to the high-ground around the quarry.
  2. Use a Shadow Hunter Bow or Shadow Sharpshot Bow with Tear modifications to dislodge the Ravager Cannon.
  3. Use the Ravager Cannon to kill two machines (Ravager or Watcher).

Thunderjaw vs. Ravager Trial

  1. Use Tearblast Arrows to detach one of the Thunderjaw's Disc Launchers.
  2. Use the Disc Launcher to kill two nearby Ravagers.
  3. Be aware of the Thunderjaw and the other Ravager attacking you.

Ravager Control Trial

  1. Locate the two Ravagers: one north of the quarry, one to the south.
  2. Override both Ravagers. Combat Override + skill is recommended to prevent the override from wearing out.
  3. When the Ravagers engage the Thunderjaw, use Freeze Arrows on the Thunderjaw.
  4. Shoot the Thunderjaw in the sides with an impact-damage boosted Shadow Hunter Bow or Shadow Sharpshot Bow, aiming to expose the Heart.
Tips
  • The RHO Override codes from Cauldron RHO are mandatory.
  • Skills like Combat Override and Combat Override + are highly recommended.
  • A Shadow War Bow with three corruption mods is beneficial.
  • Modified armors: Nora Silent Hunter Heavy (stealth mods), Nora Protector Heavy (resist melee mods), Oseram Arrow Breaker Heavy (resist ranged mods).
  • For the Thunderjaw vs. Ravager trial, consider using Corruption Arrows on the Thunderjaw (risky), Fire Arrows on Ravagers (risks drawing attention), or Freeze Arrows on Ravagers for increased damage.
  • For the Ravager Control Trial, stunning Ravagers with Shock Arrows makes overriding easier.
  • Earning a Blazing Sun Rank in all three trials grants 52,500+ XP and +1 Skill Point.
  • Individual trial rewards include Half Sun Boxes, Full Sun Boxes, and Blazing Sun Boxes based on time.
