LINK X COTERA!!!!!!!!!! My new ship!!!! Sorry, Paya and Zelda!

once you upgrade a piece of gear to the max level

well I don't think normal size chicks really stand a chance

 

[bomblord1]

Just found out via video that Octoroks on death mountain will suck up rusty weapons and spit them back at you brand new.

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

Van Ruta?

Yup. Don't give me the solution though. I'll figure it out.

 

[Kinsei]

on the hills surrounding Karikaro (sp?) village, there is a plate in the ground with a rounded indentation in them middle that looks like maybe you would put a ball in it. Does anyone know what to do with that?

You need to

Spoiler

get the ball from Impa's house and put it in there.

 

[Fliesen]

You cant save in the middle either. Its too damn long and has no checkpoints. Really frustrating.

the real cheap part is the moment when the Korok sees a "ghost" and sprints back a few meters, which comes out of nowhere. It's literally trial and error. :/

 

[hawk2025]

The game is legit challenging. I got utterly destroyed by trying to proceed with the story.

SO GOOD.

Every step into a new area is an epic adventure, I've never seen delivery like this in an adventure game before.

 

[beanman25]

So, I've upgraded 2 times. Both being my stamina. Should I go for more hearts though? Have 8 points saved so i can do 2 upgrades now.

 

[victreeb3l]

BotW is ridiculously thirsty

The only way to top BoTW is to add supports and shipping like Fire Emblem

Make it happen Nintendo

Get 13 hearts then worry about stamina.

 

[KHlover]

Can confirm that Impa just tells you where Paya's birthmark is after you finished the Jewel quest lmao

 

[Deku Tree]

Running around and grinding the Zelda over world is too much fun.

 

[dickroach]

There is a very massive amount of optional side content.

well yea, but can I do it once I beat Ganon or do I just loadmy last save?

 

[jviggy43]

In the desert; feeling like this area is the worst offender of having wide open spaces with little actual things to do in them, which is something I havent felt about in regards to many of the other places Ive been.

 

[Hydrus]

This damn game...was looking out over a bridge and this random NPC crossing the bridge stopped to tell me not to jump. That my life will get better.

Lmao. but no way. I don't believe Nintendo in this day and age would add something like that.

 

[Stalwart]

well yea, but can I do it once I beat Ganon or do I just loadmy last save?

When you beat Ganon you go back to your last save with completion bonuses.

 

[akidnamededdy]

Lmao. but no way. I don't believe Nintendo in this day and age would add something like that.

I haven't seen it myself but I've heard elsewhere that it happens. Will have to investigate myself later.

 

[gweemz]

Lmao. but no way. I don't believe Nintendo in this day and age would add something like that.

Oh it's definitely in the game!

 

[KHlover]

Lmao. but no way. I don't believe Nintendo in this day and age would add something like that.

BOTW is a special kind of Nintendo.

 

[blame space]

OK, this part where you have to ride Sidon is bullshit. i can't control him at all?

 

[tenderbrew]

I just avoid them or shoot them down. Then again I've never tried shooting them down with anything but ancient arrows so maybe that's not feasible.

The ones patrolling on the approach to

Spoiler

Vah Rudania

, I just found some metal boxes and used magnesis to smack them out of the sky.

Yah talking more about the

Spoiler

approach to Hyrule Castle to farm parts.

 

[Kinsei]

OK, this part where you have to ride Sidon is bullshit. i can't control him at all?

That section is a rail shooter. All you have to do is aim and shoot.

 

[Wallach]

BOTW is a special kind of Nintendo.

when she looks in the mirror she may regret being that hasty

 

[beanman25]

Get 13 hearts then worry about stamina.

alrighty. will do just that. thanks for the quick advice

 

[Darkman M]

That section is a rail shooter. All you have to do is aim and shoot.

This lol

Only if they let my Link get a pretty husband

we were meant for each other, prince Sidon ;_;

 

[bomblord1]

Just let him go and all you do is take down the incoming projectiles.

 

[Vital Tundra]

That section is a rail shooter. All you have to do is aim and shoot.

That part would be a bitch if you had to control him as well.

 

[Kandinsky]

lol that guardian room below the

Spoiler

Lomei Labryinth.

Deflecting 3 guardian lasers at once feels good.

If you dont open the chest you can just kill them one by one, but where's the fun in that rite?

 

[Anteo]

Yeah sure. I know I need to rotate it to get up the rail first. Rotate again but then I need to climb so the fire extinguished

What happens if

Spoiler

you dont rotate that second time, or you rotate it one more time.

 

[Rean]

Is the Outfit you get from doing all the shrines the same one you get from the 30th anniversary Link amiibo?

 

[Hydrus]

BOTW is a special kind of Nintendo.

Lmao

 

[MineralCraver420]

I haven't been playing too much of this game, but wow is it something. I love the shrine

Spoiler

that is surrounded by flowers. I kept on treading on them, and I got beaten up to 1 heart. Sailing back down the river while being attacked by an octorock while I had only 1 heart with no food was an intense experience.

 

[darkjedi187]

Had trouble getting the additional chest in a shrine and was wondering if anyone has any tips.

I forget the name of the shrine but the gist was

Spoiler

that there were these stone see-saws throughout the shrine, and you had to use stasis on them so you could traverse to different areas. Near the end there are two stone sea-saws next to each other, and a high ledge where a treasure chest is. I tried everything I could to use the sea-saws as a catapult to get me to the ledge, but nothing worked.

Does anyone know what I am talking about and what to do?

I did one like that. The one I did had a large metal crate suspended in the air by rope. Just needed to shoot it down.

 

[Maaka]

So apparently there was a Twitch Streamer today who was playing BOTW and fighting the final boss.

A blood moon happened and he revived at full health.

I would add to this that the cutscenes interrupted the battle kicked him out of the fight and he had to walk back into the room and restart the fight. That's why the boss had full health again.

 

[xxracerxx]

Are temp hearts on a timer or until you get hit?

 

[Dartastic]

You got all the memories too? Need those for the best ending.

Oh shit. Multiple endings?!?!? How many?

Also, are any memories missable? I just got one. I think you just get them by going to a certain spot on the map, right?

 

[blame space]

so I'm supposed to a) aim at the impossibly far away target with my shock arrows and b) at the same time constantly switch back to my regular arrows to take out the incoming ice blocks? it just seems like too much 😥

 

[Wallach]

Are temp hearts on a timer or until you get hit?

Until you spend them. Same with yellow stamina.

 

[tenderbrew]

Has anyone figured out a full restore + defense up recipe?

 

[bomblord1]

Are temp hearts on a timer or until you get hit?

They stay until you lose them by taking damage.

 

[Wallach]

so I'm supposed to a) aim at the impossibly far away target with my shock arrows and b) at the same time constantly switch back to my regular arrows to take out the incoming ice blocks? it just seems like too much 😥

Not really, no.

Spoiler

Focus on destroying all of the ice blocks. Sidon will not approach closer to the waterfalls you can ride up the legs for a better shot at the weak points until it's safe. You can use Cryonis rather than your arrows to destroy ice blocks.

 

[Vecks]

so I'm supposed to a) aim at the impossibly far away target with my shock arrows and b) at the same time constantly switch back to my regular arrows to take out the incoming ice blocks? it just seems like too much 😥

You can also use the

Spoiler

cryo rune

to deal with ice blocks.

 

[akidnamededdy]

so I'm supposed to a) aim at the impossibly far away target with my shock arrows and b) at the same time constantly switch back to my regular arrows to take out the incoming ice blocks? it just seems like too much 😥

1) you'll get a better opportunity to shoot at the targets, just hold your horses

2) don't you have some other way of destroying ice blocks...?

 

[Kinsei]

so I'm supposed to a) aim at the impossibly far away target with my shock arrows and b) at the same time constantly switch back to my regular arrows to take out the incoming ice blocks? it just seems like too much 😥

You're not meant to use the shock arrows while riding him.

Spoiler

When he gets close to the waterfalls you need to swim up them and shoot the orbs from the air.

 

[bomblord1]

so I'm supposed to a) aim at the impossibly far away target with my shock arrows and b) at the same time constantly switch back to my regular arrows to take out the incoming ice blocks? it just seems like too much 😥

Take out the ice blocks first what happens next may surprise you!

 

[Inferno313]

Oh shit. Multiple endings?!?!? How many?

Yeah, Aonuma confirmed multiple endings months and months ago, before anyone gets up my ass about spoilers.

No memories are missable.

Spoiler

If you haven't yet, you'll eventually progress one of the main quest such that it'll give you a list of memories with a clue for each one.

 

[Kandinsky]

so I'm supposed to a) aim at the impossibly far away target with my shock arrows and b) at the same time constantly switch back to my regular arrows to take out the incoming ice blocks? it just seems like too much ��

No, spoiler strat

Spoiler

you can break the ice with crionis

Edit: Still the best moment in the game for me, looove it.

 

[ekim]

I think they don't even get marked in the album if you found them. I better safe them up to do them at the end one after one.
