do heavier armors actually slow down your move speed? i have my eye on the hylian knight stuff, but i don't want to move any slower, and my current tunic is actually pretty decent after the upgrades.

If I had to guess it's more likely they make you very loud.

Hell, same, but it's because I knew it would break soon and chucked it right into the slime's stupid face.

There's always the inevitable playthrough where you dash straight for the castle and beat the game asap.

I haven't found a way to pet em but I fed one and it followed me around. They also chase their tails which is good.

They really need to add a pet button tho.

I was gliding along the north of the map when suddenly I was swept into the air and I looked around and I was wafting in the current of a massive dragon

this game has the best dungeons ever, i love how they're totally open because it means you can be fighting a boss across the entire dungeon.

finally found a way to upgrade armor more and now the usual suspects aren't chopping off 8 hearts at a time, feels like the whole world just opened up

also something i tried and worked perfectly i was so amazed (late game spoiler) you can parry guardian blasts right back at them and it takes out a huge chunk of health

Buffs from food/elixers are really strong, too. Eating defense food with a 3 rating is the difference between a Lynel one shotting me and taking half a heart.

i did zora dungeon first and i killed the linel, if you shoot an arrow at its face it gets stunned then you can mount it and beat the poo poo out of it. i had to do it alot because weak equipment but it worked

linels are still the hardest enemies for me. like hinoxes and taluses are no problem even with their fancy lifebars but i still get hosed up by the lion men

If you have Link kick open a chest with no pants on he'll stub his toe and grab his foot in pain.

If anyone has cleared Eventide Island, I got two of the orbs but the one around the Hinox's neck is tricky. It's tough to kill with no gear and the crummy weapons you find on the island. I don't know if it's possible to nab the orb on it's neck without killing it.

That's one of my favorite fights so far. hope you can figure it out on your own.
