Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, im new to this.

SPOILERS FOR MOST OF HORIZON ZERO DAWN**

Okay so I have made it to the battle with the bohemeth in the stadium. I have no tear/shock arrows, and I dont have enough material to craft precision arrows. (I know noob mistake) Ive tried so many times and I cant win with regular arrows, they dont do enough damage. Is there a way to go back to a point where i can go see a merchant? Ive tried to go from the furthest back "load game" point but its still too ahead and im in the building and cant get out to go see the merchant. Do I need to start from scratch? PLEASE HELP

Have you opened opened all of your treasure boxes? Can you get any helpful materials from shooting off the behemoths belly-container?

Moved to the Horizon board and added spoiler tags, fyi.

@thesteve19: Yeah the treasure boxes give me enough materials for one batch of precision arrows that even when all shot perfectly arent enough to take down the bohemeth. Ive hit a wall with this game.

@rorie: thank you

@molella18: Yeah, for future reference, most games will have a specific forum that you can post to. You can do this either by going to the game page and forum and posting from there, or choosing the forum when you make a new thread. General Discussion is for generic video game talk, Off Topic is for whatever random shit (with some guidelines).

Hope you're enjoying Horizon: Zero Dawn! (and the greatness that is Giantbomb.com)

Are you able to make ropes or freeze arrows ? If you can freeze him (ropes will allow you to spam them in case yours are weak) your normal arrows will do more than enough damage. Or what about just using your sling for straight up damage ?

In the worst case you should be able to do the fight with your spear, although I would imagine that would be a nightmare.

@ares42: can you make freeze arrows out of regular arrows?

@molella18: No, but all you need is wood, shards and chillwater. I would assume what you're missing for precision arrows is wires ? If you're out of wood then I guess slings are your only option.

@ares42: no i have an abundance of those things! okay going to try that now! thanks!

@molella18 what you need to do is get the Behemoth to chase you into the pillars, this will damage the machine and also cause your weapons to lower into jumping reach :)

There should be plenty of stuff you can grab off of the corpses laying all over the area to make enough special arrows to help out, depending on what bows you have. But no, Lt. Daniels was pretty specific when he said it was the "point of no return" before starting that mission. Always a good idea to make a hard save when you hear something that specific. If your last autosave is still in the Zero Dawn facility, you could always just go back there and scrounge for stuff, no shortage of resources there in the last part.

Having it ram the pillars like @p1x3lch1ck said should help too
