Man it rains an awful lot and for a long time in this game, it's actually quite annoying. You can't climb, you can't cook, you can't camp, often you can't use a lot of weapons if there's lightning. All I can do is just leave the game running and wait it out. I'm doing this quest where I have to take fire to this other place and twice has it started to rain halfway through, I used the "checkpoints" to save the fire but even those are far and few.

Plus I don't understand why I can't run with the torch out. Infact the game has no animation for running with any equipped weapon as Link holsters anything you have equipped if you run ...which is just weird.

Last night I was exploring a brand new region when a lightning storm hit. I had never seen one before and all of a sudden huge shafts of lighting are setting fire to the grass around me. I wanted to get to a fire to wait out the storm but didn't know the area at all - and then I realized I could start one myself. There were some weird outcrops nearby so I took refuge under one, dropped some wood one the ground, and sparked some flint. Then I waited out the storm and kept adventuring. I love this game.
 
Not sure if this has been cleared up already, and I'm assuming the answer is probably a resounding "NO" either way, but is the DLC pass cross-buy? I own both versions of the game but I'm currently playing on Wii U because I don't know when I'll be buying a Switch, and I'd like to avoid having to pay $20 twice for the same content for two versions of the same game.
 
I am thinking of tackling the dungeon by
the Zoras
.

I have 5 hearts and one stamina upgrade and most of my weapons are in the 15-20 range. Am I ready for this shit or should I put it off a bit?
I didn't even lose more than two hearts to the boss. He is super easy and I'm a noob at this game.
 
Question: When the Blood Moon rises and all the enemies respawn, they stay respawned, right? It repopulates the whole map? Or do they disappear by morning or something?

I ask because I killed that
Lynel in Zora's Domain
but I'm out of Shock Arrows and was thinking of going up there and getting some more. But there's no fast travel up there and it's a long way just to go investigate an empty peak.
 
Someone just told me to not sell diamonds. I don't know about the other stones :O

Shit I just sold 2 diamonds because I wanted the rupees. I know they are used for
recrafting the Lightscale Trident
, but I don't feel particularly interested in doing that. Hope it's not needed for a quest.

I'm about the same as you and I'm having issues with the sub boss before the dungeon.
 
what's your thought right now

I'm basically around the same progression wise as him and I think that I need to slow down and explore more. It sounds like lots of people are just exploring and finding things. I've gotten all the towers and have been a bit more focused on "progression" - and while I'm having fun I think that I'm making things into bit too much of a chore.
 
what's your thought right now

The best open world I have ever played and one of my favourite Zeldas. Despite the low IQ the world is absolutely beautiful, especially the towns, I love the towns. I miss the amount of items you get in any other Zelda game, but I love how creative the puzzles get with what you have.

Stay respawned, mini bosses also respawn.

They stay dead. Only come back during blood moon.

Also neat fact... the trek to
Zora's Domain I was in the middle of all of those lizards with the shock arrows... about half way through killing them the blood moon comes and respawns the ones I had just killed.

Stay respawned, mini bosses also respawn.

Really? Could have sworn I had been back to an area where I killed them and they weren't there anymore.
 
Hey, what happened to the tree-looking guy who increases my carrying capacity? I have a bunch more nuts to give him, but he's gone from his location!
 
how do you increase the bond with your horse? it says to pet him when it does what you tell it to do,but i only got a reaction once from my horse.
Ride around at top speed and use the gallop and press L as soon as the horse drops out of the gallop.

I will probably give it a try.

My main concern is running out of weapons. If there is a lot of fighting and I am replacing 15 swords with shitty 5 clubs it is going to get tough.

Zora dungeon monster/weapon count stuff:
There's very little fighting. You can take out everything with a few arrows. And there are 2-3 weapons inside

That happened to me too. I had just barely survived a very difficult fight and lit a fire to cook some food to heal. Then the Blood Moon rose for the first time and reset the entire encounter, which I was standing defenselessly in the middle of. It was terrible, but pretty hilarious.

Link was like, phew, I made it. Time to get my wits back by the campfire. Only to have the onslaught he just conquered hammer him straight into the ground.

But damn is the feeling satisfying if you can pull it off. I damn near used every weapon I had, and ate half my stock of food, but that fucker is dead.

That fight was so good. I wish there were more fights like that. Maybe there are and I just haven't found them yet. I kept trying to dodge Bloodborne style and Link was jumping directly into its blade, taking massive damage. I made that same mistake about ten times. Eventually I started backflipping because I would literally try to dodge, get hit for all but a quarter-heart left of my health, eat a mushroom skewer, and repeat.
 
Haha... Im stumped on this one as well but
it's the gear below that one... To give you a hint on yours I would carefully look at the divine beast's map
This one caught me out too but then I facepalmed when I figured it out.
Two words:
Ice Cold

The Blood Moon has only occurred for me when I've been relatively safe, but I low-key can't wait for that feeling of "Oh fuck. Oh fuck. Oh fuck." to occur as I see the moon start to rise in a dangerous area.

I have twice had the blood moon respawn a monster I was in the middle of fighting. Guess I need to pay closer attention to the moon.
 
There's 100% a solution to The Lost Woods that's much simpler than any of that.

DO NOT CLICK IF YOU DON'T WANT THE ANSWER

Once you get to the double torches, follow the direction of the wind.
I felt smart as fuck by lucking into the solution halfway through just randomly through bumbling around without looking it up at all.

Basically I just got a brainwave by something I was told by an NPC.
 
I think I probably spent 7 hours plus in the Gerudo zone from the point I first got to the shrine at the far right, and deciding to climb the mountains on a whim, all the way until I finally just got into my very first real dungeon. So many adventures. So many memories. So much variety in one area. This sort of progression is better than any dungeon.It honestly feels like without the game guiding me much, simply presenting opportunities, many of which being optional, I already got like 3 dungeons worth of Zelda-isms before even getting to the actual dungeon. The gift that keeps giving. Holy shit.
 
I see people screenshots with like 10+ hearts already, what the hell guys. I've played this game for well over 20+ hours and have 6 lol.


Are people just rushing to shrines or something? Goddamn.
You get pretty close to one shot in this game by the bigger enemies so yeah I prioritized it a lot.
 
I'm ready to join y´all.

So...

I did the entire quest chain on the snowy mountain L-something without any cold-resist food/armor because I had no nearby waypoint and I didn't want to do that entire trek a second time.

...

So I lit the entire mountain on fire along the way. I also improvised with my Firesword as a warmth source.
