Found the Juniu Shrine. Coming in, I saw it through a slit that's impossible to climb up in a damp cave without frog gear. Oh look some water I'll just make an ice bridge. It kept slipping out before I could climb up. Ah ha! Recall so it stays there and now I got it. Oh hey rocks to bomb... That lead to the moat. I could have just swam son of a...

1) Combat in this game is a lot more fun and chaotic because of all of the weapons. It also seems like it's easier to die from any given encounter. I haven't stacked like a million hearts, but it's not like I'm walking around with 3, and it still seems like I'm dying more than I did in BOTW. It makes it feel like there are bigger stakes in the fight scenes. 2) I totally missed that the lookout landing is basically another round of tutorial with all the important quest nuggets- I feel like I spent so much time on sky island that I was ready to get out into the world, and I had unlocked all the towers and added two more loops to my stamina wheel before going back (I had to look up how to get heroes path) and learning that I could activate a shrine sensor. Lol. 3) I'm almost done with getting all the lightroots activated, but there are a few under the castle. Ive done 2 of the 4 regional phenomenon - if I try to go activate the lightroot that's close to/under the castle am I going to accidentally start the endgame stuff before I want to? 4) Wow this game owns. 5) Is there anything to do with crystalized charges after you've maxed out your battery packs? I keep finding things underground that lead to more and more v. large crystalized charges, which makes me wish I hadn't spent my zonaaite on them. 6) it seems like there are a million little side-quests in the game, some of them enormous and tedious, and it's hard to tell which ones might be really useful, or might just be 100 rupees. Let me know if I should spoiler any of this. I've been trying not to read the thread - I haven't done a few of the more 'core' parts of the game/story portion yet.

I’m impressed you got that deep into the game without doing lookout landing lol. I did the same thing striking out into the world immediately but pretty quickly decided that there is no way the game is supposed to be this punishing. Like when you activated a tower without the glider did you just faceplant and die? How did you get 2 full stamina wheels without the glider? I feel like I must be misunderstanding you.

No - the lightroot directly under the Castle is basically at the very beginning of the homestretch, so if you just grab that and then teleport back out you won’t spoil a thing

Credits roll. Hell of a game. Found all the Addisons and bubbulgems, don't think I have anything left that I'm particularly itching to complete. I still want to play but I'll leave that hunger for DLC. Some of this ending/credits music sounds exactly like Rosa's theme in FF4.

Oh, I guess I did the glider quest and maybe started the one about the hyrule field chasm but after that I figured the area was clear. Runcible Cat posted:Dude who swaps them for batteries will swap for Zonai devices instead once you're maxed. Thanks! I just fought the 3rd depths version of the air temple boss, so once I do other temples I guess there's another 900 crystal charges around to collect if I want to chase down all of those. Or so I'm assuming. Is there some sort of lead/hint somewhere that explains the lost woods and why everyone in there is totally brain-dead? I don't necessarily need to know what//where it is, but just to know if there's some sort of bread crumb out in the world that might help me.

If you get enough korok seeds they will start talking about how everyone in the lost woods is acting weird. Once that happens, the deku tree will explain more. So collect more korok seeds

I like spears but they don't get a compensation for durability. Also, the game lies to you about their damage output, raising spears and lowering two-handers

Orange Crush Rush posted:Yeah, but that's a direct result of fusing adding so much attack power, otherwise a those 172 damage Lightscale Tridents would trivialize the game because of how fast Link attacks with it I mean, they still pretty much immediately kill Silver enemies, so I'll take it. Bawkdad needed help killing his first Frost Gleeok when I stopped by for lunch on Friday (he had it down to 1/4 health but only had 80 arrows after exploring the depths for the first time, so 1 arrow left) and I got to show him what just the zora spear + silver enemy horn + Sidon's sage ability combo does, and then mentioned how the Lightscale Trident does the same thing but stronger when you use better parts. He also has the Master Sword now, while doing the stuff pretty backwards to how I did it. He did the geoglyphs quest, missed the opportunity there, then at some point that afternoon he just said "gently caress it, I know I have to go into the Depths to reach Korok Forest so I'm going to just find a sky island tall enough to find the Light Dragon and grab it" Now that's he's done that, he feels prepped enough to go explore. Meanwhile, I bumrushed the forest immediately, beat the boss, got the quest, then had to collect stamina wheels until I had enough. Once I did all that, I finished the geoglyphs. Funny how different people can have such similar paths through the game, then do the same thing completely opposite  Sab0921 posted:How does the spear help with the butt talus? When you stun the Talus, the rock on the back is low enough that you can easily attack it with a spear without taking your feet off the ground. You can pretty much just Recall the rocks that it throws, and as soon as the rock is on its return trip, start sprinting behind it with a spear in-hand so you can get some combos off very quickly. A Lightscale Trident with the Sidon water buff will absolutely tear through any Talus health bar bawk fucked around with this message at 18:16 on Jul 17, 2023 |

this game usually makes me feel dumb instead of smart because all of the really clever uses of the powers come off the internet I actually felt pretty smart when I (late game sage spoilers) attached a gloom club to mineru- her damage went from very bad to mostly bad okay maybe this one won't be setting youtube on fire but i still felt pretty clever

I've been loving around doing the Stable quests after finishing the game last week. I travelled by air mostly during my first play through so I missed a lot of stables. The stables are all so cute and quaint, the quests are so cozy, the music so good. They all have a slightly different atmosphere, and usually just enough wackiness to make them stand out. Good stuff nintendo.

The stables have perfect vibes. If I've imbibed a bit too much and am not up to combat or exploration, palling around the stables is such a fun, cozy experience.
