Traps are very useful in Horizon Forbidden West, as they allow you to take down enemies more easily and attack from a distance. What about when you have misplaced one, though, or someone else has left one for you? Here is how to dismantle traps in the game.
When dismantling a trap, the important thing to remember is that you do not want to be stood up. Press Square to crouch down so that your movements are more precise, then slowly approach the trap in question and press Triangle to dismantle it.
If you are stood up, then the likelihood is that you will end up triggering the trap as the game is expecting that you will want to move further afield when upright. Aloy does run around a lot, after all…
It is always a nice feature when games allow you to set and dismantle traps. For players who like to be stealthy in their playstyle, it allows them to craft situations where they know exactly where their enemy will go. This can be very handy, especially when facing off against bigger machines.
