If this zelda (lol) game is too tough or you are looking for direction, this in progress walkthrough looks OK. https://www.zeldadungeon.net/breath-of-the-wild-walkthrough/great-plateau/

The game really didn't want me getting the hat in this chest For those curious this island I'm on has two hats, a barbarian skull helm that raises attack stats and a silver tiara that raises guardian defense. It also has a bunch of bomb rear end swords Can someone point me in the direction of Korok Forest? I wanna expand my slots.

If the maracas guy told you he was on the way to korok, he actually stops at the stables between kakoriko and korok first. Then later he moves to actual korok.

Is the torch the only weapon that doesn't break eventually from being on fire? And if so is there anywhere with guaranteed torches?

Whenever I finish the game I look forward to seeing how many ways people are breaking it. I've taken advantage of a few exploits here and there but I wanna see the crazy stuff, like getting up on that airship with the magnetism or something. As smooth as it is, it seems very prone to OoT-level exploitation.

Figuring out how to scale the cliffs to reach Akkala Tower and then actually figure out how to climb up the tower proper is one of the most satisfying things I've ever done in a video game.

Also I don't know how guarded Nintendo are about their internal stuff but I'd love to know the story behind what happened between this and Skyward Sword. Feels like it was inspired by the same sense of creative freedom that Link's Awakening was.

Absolutely. Also just wanna say all the reviews talking about how great and awesome and frequent the autosave feature is are liars. I've easily lost 10-15+ minute's work multiple times after dying.

Best strategy I've found is to toss a boomerang at them, which knocks them to the ground, and then beat the crap out of them. Everything else is just frustrating.

Hedrigall posted:My only disappointing death was after I went hunting and shot like 12 deer and some other animals, harvesting tons of meat, then went mining and got some rubies. I also took some photos of a few birds I didn't have in my encyclopedia yet. Then a Lizalfos killed me. I spawned back before I had done the hunting/mining/photographing, and lost all that progress >:| If this happens again and you've got an enemy who you know is gonna kill you, quick save. That way, you keep all the poo poo you worked hard for, and when you die, it'll just respawn you and then you can quick travel in that lull where the enemy is kinda not attacking you. Or just quick travel off the bat. I've fast travelled a few times mid-battle and it always makes me laugh cause I can just imagine Link giving a "gently caress you" gesture as he dissolves into particles.

Is Water the opposite of Lightning or something? Not that I have water orbs or water arrows... And its usually when you're in the middle of a loving lake so the lightning gets super amplified.  If you hurt enemies in death mountain with ice, they die instantly too. Very fun

I keep the Wizzrobe weapons cause they seem OP, but I don't ever use them. I just wanna sell them but you can't sell weapons, unfortunately. I figured they'd fetch a high price. I might just blow the electric wand I have on the Ruta Divine thing to kill the boss quickly

The only way I did the tower in the middle of the lake with 3 lightning Wizzrobes and a bunch of lizards is that I died and spawned right at the bottom of the tower and no-one saw me

Or any arrows, they knock them down too. Ice arrows let you get in and get a guaranteed hit (potentiall for more? I can't tell if smacking something that's frozen makes it do more damage than just a regular whack).

I might just blow the electric wand I have on the Ruta Divine thing to kill the boss quickly They're interesting because they get lumped in with weapons but they're not really very good as weapons, more as traditional zelda style tools / magic abilities. I like the leaf that makes wind, the boomerang, the megaton hammer, the magic orbs, and others, although holding a bunch of gimmick tools while you're also trying to carry a bunch of high level weapons is pretty tough. I need more korok seeds so I can expand my inventory to massive levels. The orbs are crazy powerful when used in conjunction with a normal sword, though. Stun the poo poo out of a ton of enemies and hurt them all, then run in and finish them off. Ignimbrite posted:Ice Arrows, my droog. Or any arrows, they knock them down too. Ice arrows let you get in and get a guaranteed hit (potentiall for more? I can't tell if smacking something that's frozen makes it do more damage than just a regular whack). Yeah but that doesn't work when the fuckers are floating over water that is so deep you have to swim in it Like I know, that's what I did, but they can be real bastards sometimes Ice arrows in this game are REALLY strong in general. The freeze lasts so long its an effective form of CC. If you run into 4 enemies, you can freeze 2, fight the other 2, and then you have plenty of time before the 2 unfreeze and gang up on you.

Yo, how can I stop the personal aim when I'm shooting my bow and arrow at a targeted enemy? I want it to be like how it was in OoT, where if you're locked onto an enemy, Link automatically aims at the enemy. I really hate when it pops me out of lock and I gotta try and indelicately aim at this super enraged enemy that's charging towards me. Also, a thought that just popped into my head: if I go somewhere safe and drop a bunch of my weapons, do they persist or do they get despawned after a while? Cause that might be handy to store weapons I don't really use but like. I'm pretty drat sad cause my iron warhammer finally broke, I basically had it from the start of the game and I've got no idea where to find another one. Blowing rocks up sucks cause it shoots the stuff away. I miss my trusty hammer.

Turn off gyro controls and don't touch the right stick  You do way more damage aiming for headshots than just plinking arrows at lockon though. It rewards you for aiming.

El Burbo posted:Are the various precious stones used for anything besides selling for quick cash? I read somewhere that later in the game you use them to craft earrings that can give you defenses against certain element types (ice / electric / fire etc.) and I know in the description of one ore it says that it's used to upgrade certain chest pieces. I've basically kept on to everything and won't sell it until I know for a fact I don't need it. Nothing worse than bumping into someone that offers you a useful thing but it turns out you don't have that one item cause you sold it. I hate that cause then you gotta go on a wild goose chase trying to find the item which always seems to elude you. For money, I just do sidequests (they give rupees sometimes) or mass-cook easy food and sell it all for dosh. Was cranking out tonnes of 2-apple dishes that sell for alright, and there's like a 20% chance you make an upgraded version that gives more hearts and sells for like 400 rupees. Apples are all over the place so it's reliable to make money on.

Just for laughs I decided to raid the castle with just 3 hearts. Funny thing about Calamity Ganon: He is way easier than anything I fought before him simply because his attacks didn't one-shot me. I got sloppy and died on the 4th phase, realized I didn't want to beat the game yet and left.

I'm a big dumb idiot and bought the game for Wii U even though I'm definitely buying a Switch (and inevitably the game) some time in the future when I've got some more money and can actually get my hands on one.  I've tried looking for details on version differences but every website just states the same couple of pre-launch things. Does the framerate dip as badly in the Switch version as the Wii U version (some places like the stable have dipped into the 10's)? I like playing off-TV, but the Wii U gamepad is kinda.. blurry? Not very crisp anyway. Does the game look crisper on the Switch (again, off-TV)? Gotta say though, framerate issues aside I'm blown away by this game. All the little details, the ridiculous degree of freedom, the physics, the gorgeous graphics (even if they're a little blurry for me). I just met a dog and fed him a drumstick. Now he likes me  e: also the Koroks really remind me of the Secret Seashells from Link's Awakening. All the dumb little things you do to get them

You goofed up, but it's salvageable. Just keep the disc in pristine condition. Play it, enjoy it, then when you get your Switch + the Switch version of the game, sell the Wii U disc on Amazon. You'd get close to full price for it. It'd basically be equivalent of the good old Blockbuster days when you could rent a game for a few bucks for the weekend. Except this way you get to play it for a week or two before getting next to full price back.

All the dumb little things you do to get them At first I thought they were just gonna be in hard-to-reach areas and there were only maybe 30 or so in the whole game. Turns out you can't swing a dead cat without hitting at least two spots where they're hiding.

To be entirely fair though, you don't really NEED 900 Korok seeds, your inventory will feel fine at much less than that. Unless there's some sort of cosmetic reward for catching them all, in which case gently caress.
