If I’m going into the trial of the sword, which is a better 30 minute recipe, attack or defense?

Taking off all your armor and completing the trial in your boxers will just incentivize you to fight even better.

I wanted to max out the OoT set because that's my favourite, but fallen stars are too hard to get so gently caress it.

Get a fire weapon some wood and warp to the top of the dueling peaks. Drop the wood and light it with the fire weapon. Camp till morning twice, then camp till night. Face Hateno tower and wait. Keep your camera still, it always spawns in field of vision. You’ll see it drop between 9:30PM and 3:00AM. You can usually warp to Hateno tower and glide to it. You must grab it by 5AM or it despawns. One out of every ten might drop in water or clip into a mountain. The rest can be grabbed. When you get one, warp back to dueling peaks and sleep till morning twice, then night and repeat. If it fails to drop in the night, exit out of the game and try again. Here the spawn radius:  Sometimes it’s easier to warp to the shrines between the three Hinox’s. Cartoon Man fucked around with this message at 04:15 on Jan 16, 2021 |

At 3-5 mins for each star, that’s like an hour grinding to upgrade the gear. Considering a lot of us have like 150+ hours in this game. It still sucks though and is one of the worse design decisions in the game.

Sure, but you probably won't even get enough star fragments to fully upgrade one set that uses them just from playing normally.

Cosmetic slots would've been amazing. I think I spent most of my playthroughs in the stealth gear because it basically made you into (more) of Link the Cryptid.

I farmed all 100 stars needed for all the amiibo gear. The worst part was farming the Topaz for it. I finally started killing all the Lynels for random Topaz drops alongside all the Talus. Other biggest pain in the rear end was farming Giant Ancient Cores from guardians. You can kill all guardians in front of Hyrule and all the guardians in the Major Test of Strength trials and maybe get 2 if your lucky. I love how Nintendo could be assed to code in enough gear slots for all the possible armor. I had to sell my Hylian set and my threadbare shirt and shorts.

One of the things keeping me really invested in OG Hyrule Warriors is getting all the character and fairy costumes. I don't know what it is about that, what kind of itch it scratches, but whatever it's doing I can't stop.

ImpAtom posted:There are a metric shitload of costumes, they're just almost all for Link. Gotcha. I must have misremembered the original, because I just took a look at the wiki and it seems like most of the characters only have color scheme swaps outside of the main crew. Would you recommend going with the original Definitive Edition or Age of Calamity? I played the story mode of the original Wii U release but not much past that.

You've hardly scratched the surface of the original at that point, the adventure mode is ginormous. And if you like costumes there's always the fairies too. I'll let you know which one I recommend in 2023 when I finally complete the original and get to playing Age of Calamity.

Age of Calamity is a much stronger game mechanically in terms of character design and overall gameplay but it isn't like the original Hyrule Warriors is bad. It just has a lot of annoying design problems they fixed in the sequel. On the other hand DE has so much content it is absolutely batshit insane. Even if you're not into grinding the biggest numbers it has a ludicrous amount of characters. If you want something that you can play and finish in a reasonable timeframe and whose post-game is fairly time-and-player friendly go AoC. If you want something that will last you hundreds of hours and you can pick up and just complete some objectives in anytime you want, go DE.

Thanks! I think for me it's coming down to: Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition:
Age of Calamity:
Kind of leaning towards the original at this point, but still undecided!

FWIW I'm almost finished with Age of Calamity (beat the story, doing some post game stuff now) and I do prefer the original. Mostly I find the progression systems in AoC to be more frustrating than fun. It's a lot more work to keep all the characters up to snuff and just be able to use whoever you want at a given moment. It is still quite fun overall though.

I only played AoC, but I really liked it. However, I feel like I didn't like it as much as the game expected me to. In the final like two chapters you unlock a lot of characters, but by that point I was locked on the three that I would for sure play with, and didn't care to stop my story momentum to level up and learn new guys. I barely managed with the level curve due to not messing around, and I was pretty content with finishing when the story ended rather than dig into the 200 hours of stuff I had available.

I finished AOC this weekend and enjoyed it for the most part. Some of the later bosses are just HP sponges and just generally kind of unfun. Overall, it was a good time and above average for a Musou game. They really translated the BOTW style well. My biggest gripe? Well, kind of let down by the ending and the way the story unfolded. But I guess is such the way of spin-offs.

One of the Hinox almost got me cause there’s really not much you can do to cheese them. I felt like I could’ve killed the solo Lynel without an ancient arrow. The Lynel in the giant pack of mounted Bokoblins with a bonus turret up top? Lol no way.

I mean the ancient arrows are right there to find and can only be used in there so I don't see how that's "cheesing" anything

Thanks for the Hyrule Warriors input, I ended up getting Definitive Edition for now. It feels really great to play, framerate is super smooth and the additions since the Wii U version like switching between characters and owl statues really makes managing the big Legends mode maps much more fun. Happy with this game so far!

The real cheese is breaking through the geometry and outright skipping the whole thing (Which I did on my 2nd Master playthrough because gently caress that starting trial. I did the other 2 just fine)
