hey dudes add me NNID: bonzibuddy64

I just got the first Rewards map from completing the first Skulltula illustration and it's insanely good for grinding out rupees, EXP, materials and weapon drops. The objective of the map is to "recruit" one of six neutral characters, then fight against the other 5 characters and finish the map. But you can just run around and kill about 1000 'red' monsters, without recruiting anybody, and the hostile monsters will get all of the neutral characters down to 1%, so you can run around and pick them off and collect their weapons/materials. It's super good for grinding out seals on weapons, and really useful if you have a good weapon with Slots+ and Stars+ on it. If I'm bored it's my go-to mission to just gently caress around, kill poo poo and get a ton of goodies for it. You also get a 40k rupee bonus every time you clear it. It owns

It's all for adventure mode - basically people will pop up on your adventure mode map, and they'll have a li'l mission for ya, and they give out really really good weapon rewards. I think Oxyclean got a 5-star rank 3 flame rod from doing one of my missions. It says the person you complete the mission for gets a bonus too, but I haven't had anything like that come up for me.

I got a message the other day that a friend helped me and I think I got 50k Rupees + an "experience bonus" or something.

Sheik is SO much fun to play with. She is totally OP. I am able to take keeps quick now.

I always have my water shield up. Now I take no damage. If my shield is broken cast another one right away.

When you see a bunch of enemies, trap them in the Nocturne of Shadow Black Hole, then drop a Bolero of Fire on them. Run around with a Song of Storms lightning shield, and man.

I just beat the Water Temple Zelda boss battle and it felt so good using Sheik's elemental attacks. I'm playing the game how it is meant to be played now. Thank you goons for all the suggestions and the great original posting on how to fight properly.

Technically yes, but imgur's kind of bad about compression, so I'd suggest a site like minus

Thanks for the tip.

I'm glad that this can be done, but why can't Nintendo just give us an option to "save screen capture in a loss-less format to an SD Card or something."

Nintendo seems to try to embrace new ideas, but they always stop just short of making it really good; the exception being the quality of the games themselves.

Cross Virtual Console on 3DS/WiiU for free? Nope.
Nintendo 64 VC games being made to natively work in Wii U mode? Nope.
Replays in Smash Bros Brawl for the Wii? Only if they are about 2 minutes in length.
Boot up certain Wii U games that don't require the Gamepad without the Gamepad being turned on? Nope.
Use the Youtube App using something other than the Gamepad? Nope.

To their credit, they have done a few things very right lately. They patched Mario Kart 8 which was already great and fixed some minor issues. Great DLC coming soon for it. They are giving us a Gamecube Controller adapter for Smash Bros. In short, they are making much better decisions, but still have their loveable flaws.

Also, I miss SwapNote and that 3D Art Studio thing that we'll never get now. Why didn't Nintendo just patch the software to ban the sending of photographs? Shutting down all messages was overkill and killed the best 3DS app there was :(

Yeah. It's a shame the actual cutscenes don't play up this element of Cia's personality more, because she's potentially one of the most interesting (and creepiest) villains in Zelda history.

I am down for mutual benefiting goons to better beat up poo poo. My NNID is FighterK.

I have a question. I am just having a bastard's time trying to beat the mission in Adventure mode to get Zelda's level 2 baton. Every time I try, I do really well, but Wizro just hits me for too much damage at once, and I get a B for damage taken. I think the problem is its just too difficult to get in on him to whack down his Weak Spot meter. Any ideas?

As lol as her design is, I actually like her alright. She's appropriately creepy. :shrug:

She also looks like a lot of fun to play, so do Volga and Wizro. Really there haven't been any characters so far that I don't like- I haven't been able to say that about any other Warriors game I've played. Honestly I think that the game benefits a lot from having a relatively small, tightly focused cast.

The special attack with Link's Gauntlets is the greatest ever, I can't use Seismic Toss enough. :v:

^edit: Never stop dodging until he uses the beam or the 360 bullet hell spam. His weak gauge after using either lasts a decently long time. Don't rely on blocking too much, he throws out a whole lot of hits.

My brain had tricked me into thinking one of the DLC packs was a Skyward Sword pack that included a new character. I was absolutely sure they were adding Groose, but they're just doing a Twilight Princess and Majora's Mask pack? I can't believe this.

Okay, I still don't loving get the elemental keeps in adventure mode! I go to the keep with the fairy in it, clear out the enemies, beat the Keep Boss, get the little "You've rescued the elemental fairy of [element]!" message, and I still take constant damage in the protected keeps! There are two different maps it's given me trouble on. Right now I'm in the bottom row, it's a forest stage you have to use a candle on and there's an A reward for Sheik, but besides the fact that the Mom Cucco is following me around and the end boss is the Dragon Knight himself, I take too much damage just tanking the keep and always get a B on that metric. :(

Don't put points into luck, they said.

It's a useless stat, they said.
I didn't get the hype for Sheik until I started Adventure Mode. On Legend Mode/Hard, her lightning AoE was piss-weak and did more to piss me off with the knockback than it helped. On the early Adventure Mode stages, you can just cast it and run through everything and watch entire screens die.

I'm looking at the characters in Twilight Princess, and the only one I can see them doing aside from the lame option of wolf link or humanoid midna, is Mayor Bo. He'd wear the iron boots and sumo wrestle everything.

The fairy becomes an item that you have to actually use whilst in the keep.

"Season Pass" is kind of a misleading term, I don't think I've ever seen any game get more than one. Every game gets cancelled after one season like a FOX show. :v:

The boss update is supposed to be dropping tomorrow in Japan, but I haven't seen anything yet about when it's coming stateside. Anyone else know different?

I got to take the multiplayer for a spin today. Unfortunately, I accidentally left the Pro controller at home, so my co-op partner had to use the Wiimote. It's a good thing I got help, too, because the mission I was trying to do was beating my rear end when I tried it solo. We got A rank in kills and time on the first go, but a C on damage because he got his poo poo wrecked by Wizzro the first time. The second and third times, we only got a B on kills, so after that I said three tries was plenty.

Also my NNID is MechaCrash, and I will go on an adding spree in the morning.

The fairy is an item you have to use (it's in a bottle, naturally). This is still a Zelda game :cmon:.
