At the end of The Dying Lands in Horizon Forbidden West, when you’ve found a way up and reached the Repair Bay Core of Repair Bay: Tau, you’ll find that the Repair Core is guarded by a formidable Grimhorn, and you have no choice but to kill it. It’s not easy, especially if you’ve rushed ahead with the main quests without levelling up as much as you should have (like we did).

Acid will corrode the Grimhorn’s armor plating, of which it has a lot, making it easier to target specific components and weak spots.
Purgewater is also effective against a Grimhorn, and will render the machine temporarily unable to use its fire attacks, which will give you a window of opportunity to plant more traps and attack the Grimhorn directly.
