Unlocking Astro Bot's Toughest Trophy in a Horizon Zero Dawn Level

Astro Bot's Horizon Zero Dawn-themed level, "Machine Learning," offers a tricky trophy for dedicated players. The "What the Trip" trophy requires you to defeat seven enemies using preset traps. This guide will help you navigate the level and achieve this goal.

Understanding the "What the Trip" Trophy

The "What the Trip" trophy is unlocked by defeating seven enemies with the Tripcaster. The challenge lies in the fact that you don't have free control over this weapon. Instead, you must use preset wires throughout the level.

Steps to Unlock the Trophy

Follow these steps to unlock the "What the Trip" trophy:

• Advance through the level until you see a floating balloon with a green canister.
• Shoot the balloon to reveal a red target on the other side of the mountain.
• Fire an arrow at the red target to create a wire connecting both sides.
• Slide down the wire and use your bow to eliminate the two electric enemies at the end.

Using the Tripcaster Traps

After sliding down, you'll encounter your first set of tripcasters. However, there won't be any enemies here. Proceed to the launchpad and jump to a landing with three traps arranged in a circle and seven enemies nearby.

Tricking the Enemies

The goal is to attract the enemies' attention and trick them into running into the traps. Jump over the lines and move around to lure the enemies. Be careful not to hover over the lines, as this will break them. If an enemy avoids a trap, keep moving until they fall into another one.

Additional Tips

There is another spot later in the level with more tripcasters, but it doesn't have seven enemies. If you accidentally kill an enemy in the first area, you can use this spot. However, it's generally easier to restart the level and try again.

Once you've cleared the objectives, you can enjoy the rest of the Horizon-inspired level stress-free. Make sure to find all the missing bots and puzzle pieces too!
