As you speed your way across the vast Mexican landscape in Forza Horizon 5, you’ve probably earned the Daredevil Skills a few times. Much like the Wrecking Ball skill, this is earned by performing specific actions as you’re driving around, but chances are you have no idea what you actually did in order to earn it.
Getting the Daredevil Skill in Forza Horizon 5
The Daredevil Skill is earned by performing three near misses with other vehicles in quick succession. In other words, you’ll need to drive closely to another car on the road without actually crashing into them to trigger a ‘Near Miss,’ and then do this to another two cars within about five seconds of one another.
It sounds tricky, but if you know where to go, you can rack these up pretty quickly.
The best method for farming Daredevil Skills is to head to Guanajuato in the northeast of the map.
Head here and select the ‘Horizon Solo’ option from the online menu, as this will cause AI Drivatars to represent online players from your friends list, rather than sharing the world with other, actual players.
These are more predictable in their movements than other online racers, making it easier to drive close to them to get ‘Near Misses.’ Combine this with the sheer amount of them in Guanajuato and you’ll be able to get Daredevil skills in Forza Horizon 5 easily.
