Take the Sawtooth for example, who is one of the larger machines you’ll be introduced to early in the game.

Freeze will multiply any subsequent damage done to the target and is best used at the start of a fight. ![]() Shock will stun any enemies who are hit by it regardless of the weapon type.Corruption forces the target to attack anyone nearby for a short amount of time.Fire does damage over time when used against an enemy.Tear provides a bonus when removing armor on machine targets while also doing more damage to weak points.Once you’ve taken a weapons basic stats into account, you then must learn about the five additional stats which can be added to any weapon you find in-game: Tear, Fire, Corruption, Shock, and Freeze. For example, a Sharpshooter bow may have extremely low handling because it’s meant to be used at a distance but compensates for it with massive amounts of damage. ![]() The better these two basic stats are, the better the weapon performs, but you always should take the weapon’s role into account too. As you might expect, Handling alters how accurate the weapon is along with how quickly you can reload it after firing, while Damage simply determines how much raw damage the weapon does to any target before any modifiers are taken into consideration. On the most basic level, every weapon available in Horizon Zero Dawn is judged by two specific statistics which affect how well it performs in combat: Handling and Damage.
