God DAMMIT killed the Hinox easy enough but before that I moved the orb on the high mountain to the one you could easily climb. Since there's no loving way to move the orb on the Hinox up the huge gently caress off rock hill I accidentally killed myself via bombs and Stasis trying to propel the orb up the mountain. gently caress this game but also gently caress, THIS GAME!

More of a general Wii U question than Zelda though it's really just for playing Zelda. I need to travel to buttfuck East Tennesse for work for a few weeks. I'm planing on traveling with my Wii U to keep playing Zelda at the hotel (which i'm sure has HDMI port) but I'd like to pack minimally. Since the console is already setup, can I just bring the power cable, wii u, and pro controller and skip the gamepad and sensor bar and will there be any problem with that? I'll just have to do those lovely gamepad puzzles when I get back.

Takoluka posted:The proper way to deal with any Hinox with an orb is to glide onto him, pick up the orb, and just run. Avoid battle. Just steal it, and then bolt while Yakkety Sax plays in your head. I wish I had known that when I did it the first time around, because that was the second Hinox I killed, and both of them involved a lot of "run away and throw bombs". For that one I managed to get him into a position where he was basically "stuck" and I just chain-alternated cubes and spheres for like 5 minutes straight until he was dead.

I might be mistaken but isn't the sensor bar entirely there for Wii backwards compatibility?

My biggest design regret with this game is that it will never be modded to replace the champion recharge callouts with Macho Man Randy Savage yelling "Bonesaw is ready!"

I'm pretty sure you need the WiiU gamepad for the OS to even let you boot up. On the flipside you don't need to hook the WiiU up to a TV while traveling, just plug it in and play on the pad. Helpful if whereever you're staying doesn't let you hook up HDMI.

Anybody attempt to sequence break the Kakariko Village shrine orb puzzle by using an orb from a different puzzle? I was tempted to carry one of the orbs from the 3x Hinox challenge all the way over to Kakariko but wasn't sure what would happen afterwards. Now that I've cleared the Hinox challenge the orbs don't respawn

If you actually hauled one from across the map it wouldn't activate. Speaking of which, I'm surprised there isn't some absurd troll quest that requires you to carry a blue flame across the world.

DaveKap posted:I know two people who actually thought they had to carry the Hateno village flame up to Akkala. One figured out pretty quickly (thanks to reading the second lab's diary) that wasn't the case. The other spent some time planning out the path before saying "no, wait, this is too hard" and began looking around to find the second flame source. Kinda sad neither ended up trying to get that gnome to the rocket. I'd be tempted to do it out of sheer stubborn-mindedness if it weren't for the fact that the only things that stay "blue fire" when you light them are the ancient torches, so you can't just stock up on poo poo and drag it across the world one field of dry grass at a time. Also could you imagine the hell of dealing with that with the inevitable rainstorm

The more I play it, the more I like it. In the span of two weeks I've explored this land twice and have recently grown to love slaughtering every living thing in sight and collecting their viscera to better myself at stasis-stunning lynels and repeatedly stabbing their buhholes with spears. This game isn't good. It's loving awesome, and I want mods, I want more poo poo, MORE MORE OMRRE

I'm not going to farm the resources to upgrade all the armor, and felt due to all the climbing I might as well upgrade that set. Three upgrades seems pretty obtainable for the most part, compared to four. Along with giving a reasonable amount of defense even on the more "Normal" stuff (Climbing set is one of the more collectothon heavy sets in the game, too) . It's rank 4 upgrades that start to twist the knife. "Okay, you spent the 10,000 rupies to turn on the last Great Fairy. And you already had 9 Giant cores sitting around collecting dust. Now,... Go get us 9 fallen stars on top if you want to upgrade that Ancient Armor." Ninja suit is asking for a snail you've never even heard of, or just happened to only find one of by accident all game. The humble Hylian set is asking for 45 bokobolin guts, and 90 amber (Which you probably sold most of ) etc.

How do you start the Kakariko Kuckoo quest? I'm 60 hours in and still haven't found the NPC or whatever. Also, are there different voices for US/UK? The faux-British in the US gets pretty horrendous sometimes. Observations: I enjoy the cycle of remembering where rare critters spawn/stealthily grabbing them up/harvesting monster bits/making elixirs/selling for money. The systems in the game are dynamic enough that it never feels like grinding. Discovering a new area where a bunch of useful bugs reside is even a bit of a rush sometimes. It's also relaxing in between more intense combat/puzzle bits. I've had more difficulty with basic enemies than I've had with any major bosses. The Rito one wasn't hard but I found Zora's criminally easy. Maybe it's because I went in with 11 hearts? Are all of them this way? That said, still haven't been able to take down a Lynel. I think the unabashed videogamey elements are an enormous advantage that BotW has against other open worlds. There's no serious attempt at explaining to players why 900 puzzles are scattered in the most dangerous and inaccessible parts of this world. It's purely because a bunch of forest spirits felt like it. It's nice to have gameplay emphasized without worrying about believable context.

It's worth getting all the special armor to level 2, at some point I made use of almost every set bonus (I think the one exception was the male Gerudo clothes since they were redundant with the rubber armor). Higher than that though is only worth it for the tiny handful you'll use in the hardest combat.
