3. Cooper Deeps

Jumping on the Tallneck is possible from the derelict presented on the picture. Around it there are a lot of machines and it is almost impossible to sneak around them. The best solution is to lure the smaller machines and eliminate them.

Even though machines are alarmed, most of them won't even search for you. What is more, besides Redeye Watchers, most of the machines can't even jump on the said derelict. If you are discovered then get on the derelict as fast as you can. You can also do it so that you can jump on the Tallneck right after you leave your hiding place.

The Tallneck has the longest climbing way required to get on its head. Note, that one of the ledges goes around its entire head.

5. Spearshafts

Here, the task is rather easy - Horizon Zero Dawn: Tallnecks - how to override? Map, tips - Additional activities - Horizon Zero Dawn Guide, Walkthrough

Here, the task is rather easy. You must jump from the cliff, presented on the picture, in order to get on the Tallneck. On the cliff, there are a few Longlegs that must be eliminated before finishing the task. Lure them on the cliff's edge and shoot at them with regular arrows. You can also climb on a ledge near them and throw shock bombs.

When you eliminate the machines then getting on the Tallneck's head is only a mere formality.
