Spectacle Rock posted:I picked up a copy of the hardcover Hyrule Warriors guide. It has a good guide for Adventure Mode. It will set you back about $25 to $35 and Gamestop might have one. They were on Amazon dot com as well so you could check there. Looking at it, the digital guide is online only. You can't download it from Prima. also please someone do the obviously correct thing where you can click on a square of the adventure mode map and be taken to a page about it

I just unlocked the mission before the one where you unlock the Summoning Gate. You know, the one where you have to fight Gohma, Argorok, and The Imprisoned I remember seeing someone talk about how some combos are better at wearing down big boss meters than others. Is that the case? Because these guys all suck.

You know, the one where you have to fight Gohma, Argorok, and The Imprisoned It depends on which character you're using. I suggest using Ganondorf. A fully charged Y followed by a BBBBY combo (and a special attack if needed) will take out Gohma's or Argorok's bars in one go. Imprisoned seems hard locked such that you can't do much more than half his bar each down. Go for Gohma first.

Sheik is great for that level, as she is for every level. The water shield doesn't block against the Imprisoned's lightning footsteps, but it blocks everything else and I think her YYYYX murders weak point gauges.

I've found that Link's gauntlet's BBBBY combo really wrecks boss meters too. I used him to clear that mission and had loads of time to spare. The basic combo is really safe to use against Imprisoned too.

I found a good way to (for at least Sheik) unlock the slots on items that require X many KO's to see what they are and to use them. There is a level in adventure mode where all attacks are devastating. Have Sheik use her Song of Storms electricity barrier. Then, just rush through a wave of monsters. In a few minutes you can kill 500-600 bad guys since each zap of the lightning is an instant kill even for generals.

You can also use Zelda's wind waker X if you want to unlock Baton skills in the same fashion.

Regy Rusty posted:The one thing I'm disappointed that this game doesn't have is situations where you fight the playable characters wielding their non-default weapons. There's that one Legend mode level with Ganondorf where the Impa clones have the Naginata, but unless there are some special endgame levels I haven't seen yet that have them, that's it. I wanna fight Gauntlet Link and Summoning Gate Lana! Speaking of, right after I read this post, I did a Network Link mission, and the Link on my team was using the Power Glove! (the level 3 gauntlet) so its possible in those missions, I guess. Dunno if you can fight AGAINST them however Edit: Did a second Network Link battle and I just see Link running around with the 8-Bit sword and I'm just laughing my rear end off FighterKnuckles fucked around with this message at 23:05 on Oct 11, 2014 |

I'm sporadically updating my spreadsheet, although less so with what enemies are involved. The thing is, I've been playing a lot in terms of my free time, and I haven't even cleared a third of the square yet, let alone beat them with A rank or gotten all the skulltulas from them. The basic rule I've found for the Adventure ones is "Get good enough that you can safely capture every keep without getting wrecked or your base falling apart" and you'll easy get all the heart containers, an A rank and, obviously the 1,000 kills skulltula. Some of the challenge mode ones are similar, some of them have some strategy involved and some of them are "use the bow and loving pray nobody gets a hit in."

I'm having trouble with Zant's level 3 weapon. The problem is one I haven't encountered before - I can't do it fast enough. I can kill Fi and Sheik quickly, but the two Aerolfos captains are very slow and then Girahim in particular takes forever. Seriously Girahim took me like 5 minutes chipping away at his health. How can I make this go faster? I have a 5 star level 2 weapon but even the weak point smashes do piddling damage against him.

There's a lot of content, but a lot of it seems to be gated behind just big grinding walls. Also this style of game just isn't for everyone. Mostly I'm just venting my frustration at Agitha's and Zant's level 3 missions. I may just be underleveled on them, but Zant seems to suck rear end against single targets and has terrible special and weakness attacks, and Agitha is so bad that I'm beginning to wonder whether she's even a completed character. Her butterfly is laughably ineffective and her basic combos are slow, weak, and super vulnerable. Hell, Zant's weakness attack is so awful I honestly wish I could turn it off. vvvv Literally the same thing happened to me. Ghirahim had a pixel's width on his bar left. It wasn't even visible. chumbler fucked around with this message at 00:04 on Oct 12, 2014 |

I haven't done a whole lot of grinding. I've played the bonus maps several times, sure, but they're fun and it's a good way to practice with new weapons on top of getting lots of money and XP, so it's not really that egregious to me. Granted I've only done probably 80 or so of the adventure maps, so I haven't got all of the level 3 maps yet, but some of the other hard level 3 missions (like Ruto's) just involved gittin' gud rather than grinding out more XP.

Huh I just did Ruto's and I really didn't think it was that hard. The only difficulty I had was damage. Zant was a bit hard to kill, similarly to Girahim, but Ruto's area attacks and weak point smashes are so amazing that I was able to kill the captains so quickly that I had 8 minutes left to take out the boss. With Zant, no matter what I do Girahim is at best a 7 minute fight, and I can only have time to do that if I don't clear out the powerful enemies that appear at the end, which means Ganondorf gets his dumb rear end stomped. E: My Ruto is like 10 levels lower than Zant too.

How can I make this go faster? I have a 5 star level 2 weapon but even the weak point smashes do piddling damage against him. IIRC the most damage you're going to get out of a single attack against both the Aerolfos and Ghirahim is the smash. For the Aerolfos, if you Y chain them they should start blocking then eventually push you back and start flying; this is good because now they'll either do flame breath or the plunging attack and both of those open their weak points. For Ghirahim there's the obvious wait for a weak point strategy but that takes too long, so what I did was give him a second to do an attack that exposed a weak point and if he didn't, launched him with YX then did a full Y combo. The combo doesn't do a whole bunch of damage but it is damage and it's better than waiting for him to do something dumb. This also works on the Aerolfos but depending on how much damage you're getting from smashing them you may want to stick with that. You can also try to get Strength IV and maybe Darkness+ on your weapon. If you can find some breathing room to set it up, the final energy blast on C4 does pretty good damage. Also maybe try to have your crazy meter full/nearly full so your weapons glow red, someone itt said that gives you more damage?

Ghirahim and Ganondorf have the easiest that I've done so far. Got both on the first shot without even really trying. That's not a brag, they're just really easy. They use zones with convenient layouts, don't throw hordes of powered up captains at you, and Ganondorf and Ghirahim are much better characters than Zant and Agitha. The rest were a couple attempts each, but I'm not looking forward to level 3 baton or great fairy. Seriously, the glowing yellow dinolfos, moblins, etc. are the worst thing about this game. They're incredibly boring and trivially easy to fight, but they just take an age to kill. I hate them even more than king dodongos who are intent on never doing anything other than walk forward or manhandlas who just spam poison. chumbler fucked around with this message at 03:16 on Oct 12, 2014 |

mabels big day posted:Fi's level 3 mission has the two keeps with the magic barriers and only one fairy right? Because gently caress that. Just ignore the keep that isn't the enemy base, you don't need it. Fi's was the easiest one I've done so far besides Link's sword. Now Midna's was an awesome challenge. She's ridiculously powerful, so the level is designed not to make the individual enemies tough to kill, but instead to throw so many things at you to waste your time. I had to keep backtracking to kill all the siege captains and powerful troops that spawned to attack my base which wasted my time. Fortunately Ganondorf was a chump (like everyone when faced with Midna) and I killed him just over a minute with 30 seconds to spare. See Zant why can't you be cool like Midna huh?? chumbler posted:Seriously, the glowing yellow dinolfos, moblins, etc. are the worst thing about this game.

The fact that they're so much stronger than anything else except for the level's boss is really obnoxious. And frequently you have no choice but to kill them unlike the hordes of regular captains.

Why can't anyone be cool like Midna? She is absolutely fantastic and now that I'm good with timing her attacks, she's one of my favorites. Picking up enemy commanders and hurling them half a mile away, and actually doing good damage to them at the same time, and hurling a couple dozen of their buddies too? It's so satisfying. eta: Also although her special isn't that great, it's loving cool as poo poo and killing captains by slam dunking their stupid faces with a goddamn meteor is very satisfying.

Since this thread doesn't seem to be aware of it, most if not all of the minibosses have additional ways of exposing their weakpoints that can also damage other enemies near them: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/745183-hyrule-warriors/70292393 Short version: whenever any of them do an attack where they flash white, hitting them at the right time with their weakness causes them to screw up in some way that leaves them open afterwards.

Well, it turns out that the reason I was having trouble with the Gohma/Argorok/Imprisoned mission was because I was running straight up the middle (triggering Arg and Gohma at once) instead of going around the side to just deal with Gohma first. I'm still doing poo poo damage (I can't take out Gohma before the Arg notices, and likewise I can't finish Arg before Imprisoned waddles over. Really the whole "you can't hurt big bosses until they feel like doing the one thing that opens them up" thing is a pain in the rear end.
