She's sitting just to the right of the stables if you're facing it. Is it night time? maybe wait until day? Or maybe wait until night? Or maybe a different stables... the one just south of the tower that's in death mountain.

Foothill Stable. Not South Akkala Stable, which is also nearby.

Thanks for indulging me and easing my worries. I figured there'd be better weapons eventually but they seem very few and far between right now. And knowing that other stuff makes it even better. Now just to keep plodding on...

I also just found a traveler lady on death mountain that offers you the fireproof armor for 10 fireproof lizards.

And fireproof lizards, themselves on death mountain, can be made into your own fireproof elixirs. :)

How are you guys farming rupies? Cause I got nothing so far.

This probably isn't the most efficient way but whenever enemies respawn I go back to the plateau to kill that rock monster people were talking about a page or two back. He's dropped gems worth 400-500 rupees every time and he's really easy once you get some better weapons/upgrades.

Have one, and it's worked fine. Walmart has em for $25

I called my local Walmart and they didn't have any nor did I see them on their website for that price. I then tried Best Buy but no luck there but then they told me to check out the Toys 'r' Us next door and they had them...for full price. I caved and bought it there because I didn't feel like continuing the scavenger hunt for a cheap WiiU Pro controller nor did I feel like waiting until Tuesday or Wednesday to have it delivered. IMO the controller is worth $50 because the gamepad was becoming uncomfortable for me for longer play sessions.

I'm confused...if you get the Master Sword while having 13 actual hearts you're okay but what if you take damage and your health falls below 13 hearts? Do you die right on the spot or does the Sword simply not work after that?

That was just to get it out. Once you have it it will work like any other weapon with 3 exceptions.

1 It gets powered up when near that black ganon goop or ganon enemies and does more damage

2 instead of breaking it has to recharge if you overuse it.

3 instead of throwing it you can shoot sword beams by using the throw command at max health

lol I didn't even know there was a modest one. I found the Major one and it was like my 12th found overall or something? anyway I couldn't do poo poo damage to it and one hit killed me.

I'm still early in the game though, only just got the last node on the tablet from the baby genius near that area. Doing the beach mission was harder than I thought at only 4 hearts, those spear moblins were rough.

I feel like Nintendo's persistent inability to understand how modern games "work" played to their advantage this time around.

Like, open-world games aren't supposed to be like this. Most of them boil down to ten thousand collectible icons on a map and a lot of empty space because developers are worried that players will get aggravated if they feel like there's too much content they're missing, so everything is signposted and labeled and collated for our convenience and it feels like running down a checklist after the first couple of hours or so.

Nintendo meanwhile created this gigantic map with a huge variety of biomes, puzzles, and activities with only the bare minimum of tutorializing and then just kind of shrugged and walked away because they never got the memo on the hand-holding part of the design.

Is Mount Lanaryu worth climbing if the region it's in is only like the second I've been to. I can tell there's some ace treasure up there, but I've heard some wild horror stories about that mountain. Plus I heard the Rito sell a set of cold resistance gear and I get Medium Cold just from standing in the snow field below the dang mountain. That combined with the fact that I still haven't beaten the Lynel out front makes me think that's the more aptly named Death Mountain.

also I just got to Hateno and gently caress me i need that house and all the new armor here

There is some real poo poo up at the top of Lanaryu. If you want to be spoiled, this is the entire encounter: The shrine of wisdom is up there, and it's guarded by the blue dragon spirit, who has been corrupted by Calamity Ganon. You have to fight her in what is basically a boss fight. She has corruption eyes all over her, that you have to shoot with an arrow. She flies above the mountain/snowfield the entire time, though, so it becomes a chase where you have to fly up the mountain, shoot an eye, then glide after her as she sails away until you can get in a slow-mo shot in mid-air 2-3x more. When you beat her, she's cleansed and you get her scale, which allows you to unlock a shrine up on the mountain and claim a frost weapon .
