Horizon Zero Dawn tells the story of Aloy, a heroine in a land that no longer belongs to humans. In a world run by machines, it is necessary to have special skills in order to survive and fight enemies.

So let's see what are the skills you should unlock first to have an easier life in the fight against robots.

Critical Hit
An important skill in which to invest in the initial phase of the game. In fact, at the beginning you will come across a series of small enemies and Critical Strike will allow you to deliver a final blow on a downed enemy.

Gatherer
This skill will allow you to more easily collect items from trees such as potions and more. In the early stages these will be vital, so having a skill that allows you to not waste anything can make a difference.

Concentration
Aloy's favorite weapon is the bow. You will have to practice with this weapon a lot and you will use it throughout the game, by unlocking the Concentration skill you can slow down time. This allows you to place the darts exactly in the weak points of the enemies, greatly increasing the damage caused.

Silent Strike
Silent Strike is a skill that will prove very useful at the start of the game and beyond. The stealth approach is a very important part of the gameplay and since you can't afford to make a lot of mess shooting arrows everywhere it is good to unlock this skill as soon as possible.

Dodge Prowess
Dodge Prowess will allow you to perform dodges by rolling, both long and short

Precision
This ability grants greater chances of knocking out enemy armor even with light spear attacks

Knock Down
This ability allows you to take down enemies with heavy spear attacks.

Healer
This is another skill that will be essential to have as soon as possible. In Horizon Zero dawn you will take a lot of damage, this ability will help you heal faster.
