Watching these Zelda streams makes me realize that I missed a lot in this game. This is the first in a long time that I've wanted to do a second playthrough of something. It helps that the very beginning is super engaging, possibly even moreso than the rest of the game! I'm probably gonna save my second playthrough for when the first wave of DLC comes out, though.

8-bit Miniboss posted:Are you bonded to the max? That's sort of important if you intend to control the horse. Epona comes bonded to the max. I'm trying to do that obstacle course and the amount of precision required to hop those sees asinine. I know you're not suppose to whip her right before hopping but just to line up a horse is an undertaking.

acksplode posted:I took a really long time with Vah Ruta (elephant) because I got stuck on stopping the smaller water wheel with a terminal inside it, and I refused to look up the answer since I felt like I was missing something obvious. I'm embarrassed at how long it took me to figure it out, but yeah I would've felt really stupid had I googled it. Same. I tried everything before I figured it out. DaveKap posted:My favorite "oh, right, cryonis" moment was using arrows on the ice cubes during the lead up to entering the elephant, going to sleep as soon as I entered it, realizing while trying to sleep that I could probably have used cryonis and saved a TON of arrows, then going back to the previous save the next day just to replay that section using cryonis. It's my favorite because this has hit so many people. Yeah I did this too. I did beat Vah Naboris really fast though, so I think I redeemed myself a little. I only have 5 shrines left and I have no idea where they are. How many shrine quests are there? 42?

The funny thing is, I'm pretty sure you were right. I think the intended solution to that puzzle is to shoot the eyeball, magnesis the metal board that pops out onto the second level and use it as a ramp to cross over the goop. It's just long enough to form a bridge from the broken staircase to the tower. For the record, I figured this out on my second playthrough. On my first, I, too, was stumped until I just Assassin's Creed'd my way to the top.

So how many star fragments should I farm to just be done with it? Considering I've played 60 hours and not ran across a single one, I might as well do this for an hour and get all I need

Each jewel head thing needs 2? im pretty sure the first tier doesnt need one, so thats 12 there, and the ancient stuff needs one for the final tier as well iirc, so a whopping 15 are needed in total might be 21 if the jewels need 3

The compendium says the yellow lizalfos are in hyrule ridge, but i cant find any of the loving things. Are they only there before the shrine-thunderstorm is cleared? e: FUCCCKKKK i messed up the first screen protector i did, and i just noticed there is a big ol' speck of dirt smack dab in the middle of the screen under the protector. Godammit i just wasted that 15 bucks due to my own ineptitude Watermelon Daiquiri fucked around with this message at 15:15 on Apr 7, 2017 |

There are 3 fragments from quests: there's a girl across the path from the outskirts stable that will give you one if you have the Master Sword, one at the woodland stable for attaching an octorok balloon to a barrel for a kid, and you can get another by feeding a dog in Lurelin village some fruit til it leads you to a buried treasure chest. You would need to farm 11 fragments otherwise (8 if you don't intend to do all 120 shrines). Shoren fucked around with this message at 15:28 on Apr 7, 2017 |

It's my favorite because this has hit so many people. Finding this out is making me very salty. I am forever paranoid about arrow supply so I ended up swatting the Cubes with a Korok Leaf. But then the spiked mines should have clued me in when I found that Ice Arrows stopped them.

Amiibo sets requiring star fragments is dumb as hell since they have the same defense as the bog standard hylian set and the set bonus is kinda worthless. edit: Not to mention that they require gems already.

Get good weapons and Stasis+ for Majors. Hearts are less important, it really is a grind with weak weapons though.

The enemies in there aren't too difficult once you get their patterns down, but they have a fairly beefy amount of HP. If you're in a position where you can loose 1-2 weapons on them, the major test of strength robots drop pretty strong items once defeated. I started feeling confident enough to start taking on the major tests when I had about 7 hearts and had collected a few other items.

If you've completed any modest tests of strength, you can go back and loot them again after every blood moon. All guardian weapons get a bonus against guardians, so modest test drops will help with major test ones.

I've decided to kinda pause my main quest completion at 3 out of 4 beasts to start hitting shrines, obtaining some of the armor sets, I got the Master Sword last night and I'm going to try sneaking in to get the Hylian Shield this weekend. In regards to armor sets, is Barbarian the top of the list? Which others should I go for? Dark Link looks rad and I want to get it simply because it looks bad rear end. I have Zora, Flame, Stealth, Guardian's Tunic already.

I think the part that confused me with the Scabland trees (I thought they were giant mushrooms at first) was that compared to all of the other trees in the game, they just have solid textures for leaves.

I still don't want to read too much of this thread, but I'm at work and I can't wait to find this out, and Google wasn't very helpful. I found a 9 dmg sword in a shrine that gives +4 attack bonus. I take it that's not just like, 13 dmg, or else it'd just say 13, right? So is that like +4 dmg to everything as long as I carry it, or +4 attack levels? Or do I need to have it equipped and it brings my bows and stuff up?

I'm grabbing the Twilight set right now, which even though it doesn't have a great bonus, looks cool as heck.
