For those struggling with the Broodal boss rush, know that Topper is the only one that is actually difficult. All the other fights are still incredibly easy. The only other thing that tripped me up was Rango bouncing at me so quickly, but you can evade him by just walking in a circle.

So if you can get the Topper fight down you should be able to clear it, and he's the first fight so its easy to practice against him. Also apparently you can leave and grab the max heart hidden on a vegetable outside without the fights resetting. so you can beat Topper, get the max heart to restore any damage, and then do the rest of the bosses.

Rango can also be deflected by hitting him with Cappy, and he seems to come right back at you in the same direction so you can pretty much deflect him indefinitely until his invincible phase ends.

If you just jump on Rango as he's hopping around the phase ends immediately.

So is there even a point of trying to find as many moons in each kingdom before the post game stuff unlocks? I feel like if there is more poo poo to find in each level, it might be best to go back later.

There are moons for it. Not even joking - there's a few Toads with headphones on and music notes coming out who ask to hear specific songs, I've found one in New Donk and one in Forest

Does any Wedding Amiibo give you the wedding set, or do you need to scan Mario, Peach, and Bowser to get it?
I can confirm Bowser gave me Bowser's set, I think each gives you their respective set, and also you can buy them postgame.

e: there are some purple coins stumping me in Seaside. They're visible through a crack and right by the hot springs? But like, inside the rock. I can't find a way in.

The jump rope was bad, I found volleyball to be way, way worse

Once you break 50 jumps the only real secret is doing small jumps and getting a rhythm. Alternatively, if you can slide a moped in there and get the jumps started successfully, it has more bounce and less downtime on medium to big sized jumps. I think I cracked 70 with the moped, my roommate made the 100 without it after shaking his head at me.

My jump roping might have been less successful but it was way more rad

Volleyball is actually really easy; Stand in the center and flick Cappy at the ball.

I had a genuine moron moment tonight after running into a bunch of groups of purple coins that were just out of reach of the platform I was on in New Donk City. On three different occasions I jumped and died 3 times to get all of them. The third time I started to get annoyed and thought "this is stupid design, they should just give Mario something he can throw to get these coins, like a boomerang"

In my defense I have a really bad cold and I'm tired.

Aren't Piranha Plants basically a ripoff of Audrey from LSoH? Or was it one of those coincidental things, since who in Japan would know about a 60s-era play?

Keep in mind that this doesn't work on the big ones. They'll eat Cappy anyway.

Oh and the Fire Piranha Plants also count as a separate entry in the Capture list.

I think what amazes me most about Mario Odyssey is that the core mechanics are so good that despite the huge amount of content I feel like there is room for even more captures and more kingdoms. There were some annoying moons that repeat themselves:

Picture Match
Dog
Trace Walking
Gardening
Sheep Herding

but I can forgive all of it easily because of how goddamn fun and creative the other 95% of the game is. Some of my favorites:


Most satisfying capture: The hammer bro who throws pans/Tropical Wiggler
Most useful capture: Pokio/Uproot
Best capture controls: Meat
Creepiest capture: RC car guy
Most underused capture: Charging Chuck
Favorite overall capture: Pokio

Best level palette: Luncheon Kingdom
best level music: Lost Kingdom
most creative level: Metro Kingdom, holy poo poo. Honorable mention to Bowser's Kingdom
most confusing level to navigate: Wooded Kingdom

Best Boss fight: The one where you punch a guy in the face with his own hands
Most annoying boss fight: Dark Side Topper can eat a dick.

Hardest Moon: I guess the Darker Side, but none of them were THAT hard.
Moon I never would have found without a guide: All of the ones where you look into the sky with the robot binoculars
Most nostalgic moon: The one where you look at the light inside Peach's castle, and the one where you go down the secret pipe playing Mario Bros. 1-1 on the movie screen
I can't believe they made me do that: Walk to the far end of the sand kingdom for hint art, get 100 in volleyball, cross the timed p-switch roadway without a motor scooter

Kiss the Joycon to Kiss Zelda

Is it just me, or is the Push-block Peril challenge room in Cap Kingdom one of the harder ones in the game? I'm sure there are more difficult ones but I had an unreasonable amount of difficulty with it (mainly the top section). I beat it last night, and found the 2nd moon in it, but considering it's sort of early game it just seemed really tricky. Maybe I just haven't hit the harder ones in other worlds (the one with rotating blocks in, I think, Luncheon Kingdom, had me stuck for a while too).

I got all the moons and coins in Cap Kingdom last night, I had to look up a couple of each (I missed all the coins in Top Hat Tower somehow, and the Hint Art moon really messed me up - I didn't realise that you had to go to a different Kingdom for it :doh:) I moved onto Cascade, found a few Moons and coins completely accidentally while just messing around trying to jump onto platforms. Also I seriously don't understand how I missed the T-rex my first time through. :psyduck:
