I just left the Great Plateau....what do you guys do against those asshole mobs that throws rocks at you and then disappear and reappear elsewhere? I currently use arrows on them. Does perfect guard do anything against those rocks?
No recharge time and on cliffs it doesn't fall down.
Perfect guard will deflect the rocks right back at them and kill them.
I tamed a solid color with no stamina upgrade. Just gotta smash that L hella fast.
I would assume so. I just shoot them with arrows, too. If you get close, they hide and don't come up. Attack their bush, and they come up wondering what happened. That's when you can strike them up close.

I beat him with 3 hearts and just okay healing items.
I did have parrying and perfect dodge down tho.

It's doable. It isn't an especially hard encounter.
This is completely different from how I feel. 60+ hours in and just random exploration and aimless goofing around is still constantly surprising me.

You find a lot of good stuff in Hyrule castle. Had a ton of good shields before making it to the end.
Literally life savers.
Holy fuck. Didn't even think of doing that.

If only I could do this to teleporting ninjas.
It can be kinda finicky since the Octorks will jump up before shooting, so the rock will fly back to where they were instead of where they are at the moment.

Have you beaten any of the dungeons? Also have you upgraded any of your armors? The fight is pretty easy but you can make it even easier for yourself. If you haven't done any of the divine beasts you are in for a bit of a nasty surprise but honestly the fight is more fun that way. I did it with 4 hearts and 1 beast done.

is the glowing blue rabbit just more meat?

It doesn't give you meat.
It
drops rupees if you hit it (not much like maybe 20 or so per hit). It's also part of a quest.

Bombs send your spoils flying away, potentially down a cliff. I guess if you're on flat ground it's fine to use bombs.
I usually just hit them with whatever weapon I have on hand lol

Shoot it with an arrow and it will drop money
It gives rupees if you shoot it.

Go ahead and take a picture of it when you can
Yeah you have to be kinda close to them to be able to reflect the rock back in time before they drop back into the water.

Managed to already forget the actual name of the quest but I finished The "----son" Quest, was pretty funny
Link going "Get a load of this" to the Old Zora dude after he listed his life was hilarious, as well as the whole -son ending to everyone's names. It was especially cool since I had already met everyone of the -son people. Felt nice to see a happy ending for all of them. And the town itself seems pretty nice fully finished

Anyone know if you loot Hyrule Castle if the useable/breakable items will respawn as time passes?
Hit L and select bombs

Got it
70+ hours in I finally caught my first Electric Darner.
Also Kass sidequest end spoilers.
Also Kass sidequest end spoilers.
Wow, I thought hearing the song about his teacher was jealous of Link and how Zelda loved Link was great, then hearing Kass add to the Rito village music, which I already like quite a lot was awesome. So I sat there from night listening to him playing music, then around 8am he turned around to face the village instead of the mountains... I was like, huh, that's interesting. And then not too long later, the ducktales kids come running over each other to the platform. I was expecting them to fly away to the shrine location where their sidequest were, but they actually came to the platform to sing alongside Kass. That was so gosh darned cute.

The classic Zelda thing to do is just shield the rocks so they bounce back. I didn't start trying perfect guard until I ran into monsters who were too far away to be hit by a normal guard.

Note, unlike the sledgehammer, bombs can knock the gems away where​ they may roll down a mountain

I guess the dogs are out of the question too then.
Pokemon already went too far for me with pushing its whole 'nature is cruel' narrative but damn, Link would just annihilate that world D:
Kind of surprised Link cant throw the fairies into the cooking pot
Yeh some high level armor upgrades require gems. Also Luminous Stones can purchase gear from a
secret
She's a way better version of Fairies. If you take lethal damage, she revives you with +4 (I think?) bonus hearts.

Any two handed weapon can fill the void, you also tend to find axes and sometimes hammers outside stables.
(or bombs yeah, that's what I used most of the time, just be aware that the gems go flying a bit further)
There are also lots of sledgehammers lying around in villages and stuff.
I didn't download the parental app until a couple of days after launch.
It unlocks after 10 days.
Like a fairy, so when you die.
If you bought a house in hateno village, there's two sledgehammers.
