I wish Tarrey Town completely replaced Hylian Homeowner and Link got a tacky prefab home along with all the other son folks

Look, Link's a good guy and all but he's not... uh the type we have in mind for Tarrey Town.

He lacks a certain je ne sais quoi.

The DLC should let you change Link's name to Linkson.

What happens at the end of a dungeon if you already have max hearts? Does it give you a stamina container?

My blade is unBENDING!

That situation can't happen, I think. It will max you out at -4 hearts (assuming you don't have more than 5 stamina upgrades, in which case it will be maxed out before).

1. Check somewhere in Gerudo town.

2. What store sounds like it would offer drinks?

3. Talk to the bartender in the bar behind the inn.

With 120 shrines, and 4 spirit orbs per upgrade, that's 30 upgrades of either hearts or stamina and then on top of that 4 hearts from db's

You can use a maximum 27 of those 30 upgrades on hearts, which basically coerces you into upgrading your stamina wheel (to 1.6 wheels) or just leaving the orbs dormant.

Even if you were to ignore the DB's, and do all shrines first for some reason (without doing a stamina upgrade, because you're crazy) you could theoretically end up with 30 hearts and only 1.6 stamina wheels before doing the DB's at all. No telling what the DB's would do for you in that case.

Go back into Gerudo Town and head to the right side of the town after the entrance. (Behind the wall you see in the main courtyard) You'll find a place of business. Start talking to people.

If you have the Zora armor, warping to Shoda Sah shrine in the jungle and going up the waterfall at night pretty consistently spawns Farosh from the lake at the top of the falls.

It spawns at Hylia lake at 6 AM, you can wait for morning and then glide down to the bridge from the tower.

See, that's what I just did, and Farosh didn't show up. Apparently it spawns in more than one location? How are you supposed to get their materials consistently?

I think Farosh has multiple spawn locations, but he seems to always appear at the one you're nearest. If you make a campfire at the south end of Hylia bridge and wait until morning he should pop out not long afterward. Another camp spot is at the spring at the very top of Floria Falls. I've also seen him flying around in the Gerudo Highlands

By the way, someone ITT had mentioned consternation earlier over breaking a bunch of their weapons for a shrine-opening puzzle involving four balls outdoors in a thunderstorm.

The way to do the puzzle without breaking several weapons in the process is to: Leave a metal weapon on the ground beside the ball, Stasis the ball before lightning strikes the metal weapon. Smack or shoot the ball once more to correct its trajectory if needed.

It feels like a janky as hell method compared to bringing a couple hammers, but I'm positive it's the "legit" way of solving the puzzle without using up durability.

Easiest way to invoke it I've found is warp to the stable near the Floria Lake bridge, wait till morning, then amble along the bridge to the convenient lookout spot. It spawns at the pool at the top of the northern falls, flies down them and under the bridge.

wait until the next day, they move around to their new spots when you are in the area but if its too late to spawn they won't spawn.

Riola spring is so much better than lake Hylia for Farosh. I don't know why the latter keeps coming up. At Riola you can just keep resting till morning and he spawns right away right next to you every time.

The game spawned several skeletons at night, and when I left an orb behind to retreat onto the plateau, the skeletons started throwing things at me - like the orb, for instance

Worked for all others outside the plateau as well :smuggo:

It's purely cosmetic. Sorry dude. Make sure your horse loves you as much as possible. Feeding it helps. (they like apples and carrots)

You need to go to one of the stables that has horse customization to get it equipped.
