Hahahaha I just got to the thunderstorm swamp or something, one of the places I hadn't even been close to yet. To my surprise, the entire area was for a shrine quest: get four different orbs onto a high plateau while a constant thunderstorm rages in the area. Naturally, the walls are too high to just throw the orbs up there, so I was searching for other ways. I launched one of them on the plateau with Stasis, but just as I wanted to do the same for the other, a couple Stalfos pop up. I drop the orb, climb up the plateau... ...and one Stalfos picks up the orb and chucks it at me on the plateau Uuuuuh, thanks for the assist dude, clearly your throwing game is much more refined than mine I love this game. I seriously hope they go all-out with DLC for this one, you could pretty much expand it to infinity. If I could make a wish list, top priority for an expansion would probably be more complex enemy types on the level of Stalker Guardians and Lynels (like Darknuts! Where are those guys?), more mini bosses and varied bosses than the Blights, and more of those ridiculously awesome configurable puzzle dungeons. I wouldn't say no to a giant classic Zelda dungeon either, in the vein of Majora's Mask. In any case, some more variance for dungeons would be nice, because 100+ shrines are starting to get same-y.

Spears are also good for the hard-to-reach Stone Talus weakpoints which seem to show up more and more on the ones I see

You'll know if you've found a hinox when you are trying to fight one and it one hit kills you with its toenail and you think "where the gently caress does the hitbox start and end on this thing?" That's a hinox.

Deceptive Thinker posted:Spears are also good for the hard-to-reach Stone Talus weakpoints which seem to show up more and more on the ones I see I used to think that as well but there were literally times a spear couldn't reach a talus weak spot and I had to resort to jump slashing it with a sword because jump attacks on spears just aim downwards

There's a kind of blunt spear you can find around Goron City that, while weak for fighting, is great for breaking up ore nodes because it only takes one hit, attacks super fast, lasts for ages if you only use it to mine, and doesn't blow your gems off a cliff like the bombs do.

Getting to Goron City was great for me because it became so easy to find rock-breaking weapons. No more blowing gems off cliffs for me!

I decided to go for my next divine beast last night, so I figured I'd finally try to climb death mountain. I'd never spent any time there. As usual, I forgot that this game doesn't really want you to "quickly" do anything if you're going through a new area you haven't explored. So instead I only made it about halfway up, and spent two hours or so just exploring, getting gems and koroks, two shrines, and killing baddies. It's really refreshing to be so far in a game and still feel encouraged and rewarded for taking some time to just gently caress around and explore. My horse did burn to death though RIP Epona v.1

I like fighting flying guardians. It's fun to ground them and watch them flop around pathetically before I kill them.

mabels big day posted:Where can I get giant guardian cores other than shrines? As in, the "Decayed" Guardians that are just stationary turrets because their legs are missing don't have cores of any type on their drops table (Similarly, normal green Lizalfos never drop tails because gently caress you). But stalkers with the legs, choppers, basically properly functional guardians have a chance to. Test of strength shrine guardians also have a chance to drop them. I forget if Minor tests can, but I know Major test ones have it as a possibility even if they have been stingy for me. If you are not sure if something will drop them, you can always take a photo to check your compendium. Section Z fucked around with this message at 15:26 on Mar 24, 2017 |

Despite it being my least favorite Zelda game, BotW has made want to give Twilight Princess HD a shot. We'll see if the changes they made to the wolf stuff improved it enough to be worth the replay, I always thought the human combat was pretty great.

There is a part of me that really, really wants a Wolf Link Amiibo. Playing through the game with a Wolf Buddy would fundamentally alter the tone of the entire thing, making it a much less lonely journey. Instead of Man vs. Wild, it's Man and Man's Best Fried Who is Also Him from Another Timeline or Something vs. Wild.
