Stillsands tallneck solvable?

[f2u]

I;m stuck at the second ballista. The focus suggests there is a weak spot i the right hind leg, but it's difficult to hit for me because of the various movements involved. I think I managed a couple of times, but the anchor didn't attach. Is it actually the goal to hit this spot? I suppose I could keep trying, but I'm not even sure if I'm on the right track.

Might want to try a different spot. There are 3 ballistas btw.

[GamingWithSilvertail]

There's three.

3 Ballistas, with each one you must shot a different spot, that's Worked for me.

Don't attach all anchors to the same spot. Aloy said something about there already being an anchor on the spot when I tried it using a ballista that still had its anchor.

She says something similar about an anchor already being attached and that she needs to find another ballista if the anchor is already used, but it looks like you haven't been able to attach it, yet, if you can see the anchor near the ballista.

Note: One of the ballistas is outside the walking loop of the tallneck.

i dint even bother aiming specifically, just fired on the bits until out of ammo and moved to next ballista.

It's possible to attach an anchor with a single hit. I did it on the last two ballistas after finally understanding how the whole thing worked.

(Where's Aloy's over-helpful, hand-holding commentary when you need it?)

took me longer to see the last one. Typical this game to "hide" things

In my case, I got disoriented. I had returned to the first ballista, and didn't realize the anchor was missing. No wonder it didn't work. Once I used the right ballistas, aiming wasn't really a problem.

if any tallnecks give you trouble you can always

return near the end of the story when you have flying unlocked

There was specific spots you had to hit? I just did this one at level 18 and just shot all 3 ballista at the tallneck and it seemed to work without issue.
