HFW Arena | Ultra Hard — All Challenges — 29:45

UPDATE: I have completed a new run with a faster time. The current world record can be viewed here:    • HFW Arena | Ultra Hard — Original 20 Chall...  . This is a complete, unedited run from the beginning to the end of the Arena on the highest difficulty in Horizon Forbidden West. The run was completed on patch 1.18. Items of Note I'm playing on a regular old PS4 with crappy 10-year-old hardware. This could be completed much more quickly on a PS5 with basically no load times. This time is extremely beatable—in particular, the Tideripper fight was very messy, one of my traps glitched through the floor during the Tremortusk fight (15:04), and I got greedy and killed myself against the Dreadwing. Due to the above mistakes, I went for a very risky strategy against the Thunderjaw—and it paid off. This will be hard to reproduce consistently because it relies on the machines being in the right spot, and I can't afford to wait for them to get in position while the clock is running. Overall I am very happy with this run and achieving my goal of sub-30. During the run, I use the following equipment: Carja Stalker Elite with Potion Proficiency and Weapon Stamina weaves Legacy's Reach with 5 Concentration Damage coils Iriv's Downfall with 4 Critical Hit Chance and 1 Concentration Damage coil (Focused Shot) Skykiller with 5 Multiple Enemy Damage coils (Spike Trap) Defiance with 5 Concentration Damage coils (Spike Trap) Elite Ropecaster with 1 Draw Speed and 2 Reload Speed coils Sun Scourge with 5 Frost Damage coils Smoke Bombs, Large Stamina Potions, and Elite Acid Traps
