How about # of Shrines that you've done?

Around 40.

 

[Frillen]

The gyroscope puzzle everyone is having trouble with has an important purpose: It's to teach you that alternate solutions can be found if you think outside of the box. They made this puzzle to be found early in the game.

Spoiler

You assume that you need to keep the maze upright when in reality you have 360 degree freedom in every direction. Technically it can be solved upright, but having the ball fall on the sides or bottom makes it trivially easy.

Where is this shrine anyway?

Been playing since launch about 20 hours, i'm going to finally go to a dungeon today.

My question when we beat dungeons do we get some kinda special weapon or something like older Zelda games?

You can spoiler tag the answer if you want.

I had one land about 20 feet in front of me whilst at the very top of the dual peaks near the start, they just disappear

oh, strange... did it start to dawn afterwards? ... i got the first light of the morning after getting it and it was like 3:30 am in the game.

Is anyone else having problems when Moblins (the tall lanky pig monsters) start rag dolling? I get major slow down sometimes when they start flopping over.

You get

Yeah, those are the worst frame drops / frame skips in the game for me. If they happen in a forest or on death mountain the whole thing can go totally haywire for seconds at a time.

 

[Rookhelm]

Are there any materials safe to sell? Like Diamonds or Sapphires or whatever? or does every single thing have another purpose?

I'm really hurting for Rupees, like all the time.

My game froze for a full second or two when fighting those guys on Death Mountain, it's pretty nuts.

That one is nothing compared to another gyro puzzle.

That one with the 3 u-shaped things, with 3 balls and 3 switches...I nearly threw my Switch across the room.

everything has a purpose, you usually sell when you have too much of a given thing.

Question about a Zora's domain sidequest

Spoiler

Where can I find the ceremonial javelin? The quest log just says it was dropped off of a bridge, but I feel like I've looked under every bridge there and I can't find it.

[gardfish]

Well, I had the game completely freeze on me for the first time (Wii U version). Was doing the

Spoiler

Korok trial where you have to get to the end of the area without losing any of your equipment. I figured I'd just run past any monsters, but since they were chasing me I think with a bunch of those and the fire and all the particle effects going on it was too much for the Wii U to handle.

Stand beside the guy that dropped it then look down and activate magnesis. You should see it.

I haven't seen everything, but throughout my playthrough I rarely really needed the gems. I saw a couple not too useful items they could make, and some pieces of gear need them for upgrades. Generally I'd say sell them if you need money, but just keep a few around.

Mark the locations of Taluses, since those can be good ways to get some rocks if you need them. I think the Taluses respawn anyway?

 

[WordAssassin]

Are the Quilted Shirt and the Warm Doublet... the same... thing?

I've been running around the Great Plateau for like half an hour trying to find the Quilted Shirt because I have a mighty need to have every piece of clothing possible (good luck trying to track down some of those out of print amiibo, me) and I found a list that says it's "in a bokoblin camp on the Great Plateau" but then I saw a picture and it... looks just like the Warm Doublet. Buh? Have I been wasting my time?

 

[MildSoss]

Should i be hoarding heart pieces or stamina upgrades with each 4 shrines i beat?

 

[elshoelace]

Some lady yelled at me for stepping on flowers... Naturally I set them on fire.

I should have tried that, instead I walked on them too many times and she beat the hell out of me.

[MrSaturn99]

So I'm listening to the soundtrack CD and...does anyone remember that infamous abrupt cut in last year's E3 trailer? Turns out that's the fault of the main theme, where it's still present. I think it's beautiful otherwise but it's such a strange sound design, especially since it happens right before what I consider to be the best part.

Is anyone else having problems when Moblins (the tall lanky pig monsters) start rag dolling? I get major slow down sometimes when they start flopping over.

Yeah, I'm playing on Switch and that's the one area the game always struggles with; it just outright stops. I'm always fearing it'll freeze the game.

 

[Crayolan]

More hearts=make the game easier
More stamina=make the game more convenient

I don't recall, possibly.

 

[Anteo]

My game froze for a full second or two when fighting those guys on Death Mountain, it's pretty nuts.

There are times when I open the item menu or even bring up the sheika slate power selector and not all the images are loaded. Sometimes when I kill a enemy the game freezes for a bit before dropping the weapon to the ground.

Doing a 180 with the camera also slows down the game on wii u

 

[GulAtiCa]

Should i be hoarding heart pieces or stamina upgrades with each 4 shrines i beat?

I've been focusing more on Hearts so far. I have 3 extra hearts now and 1 extra stamina. Going to make my next upgrade Stamina and then do 2 more Hearts. Kinda in that order for a bit.

I should have tried that, instead I walked on them too many times and she beat the hell out of me.

Same here. lol. Stupid lady, even though I've now beaten that Shrine, I think I'll now go back and burn her flowers down. lol

I just followed the maze. Next time I warp there, out comes the fire rod!

I know that was came out of the guide leak before release, but is there seriously 900? That seems way to absurd, I mean there can't be enough land mass to have all those puzzles. Is there a way to locate them with the sensor?

I heard that you can get traditional clothes by beating every shrine. I have no clue if it's true or not.

It's in the game apparently, but the way you get it is absurd. I wish they kept with a bit more of the traditional Zelda aspects in this game. It's probably my biggest gripe with it.
