You can buy it or

fairly early on in the game.

 

[ghibli99]

65 hours so far, and made it to what has to be my favorite area... (are city names even spoilers anymore?)

Spoiler

Gerudo Town

. I just want to chill there forever.

Also got "the item" yesterday after doing some heart/stamina exchanges. Cutscene was so good.

Collecting memories as well... 4 more to go. I really love these, although if I play the game again, I'll do so on Switch in Japanese. The English VO is pretty lackluster, but thankfully doesn't ruin the cinematics.

 

[Markitron]

Really only getting into this game now after playing thru Horizon over the last few weeks (why did they have to release at the same time?). Haven't really done much since leaving the starting area, my rough plan is to unlock as many towers and shrines as I can before getting into any quests, is this feasible and/or a good idea?

 

[Thequietone]

Finally found the last shrine. Wasn't even that hidden and I feel stupid for missing it.

 

[BlueLiquid]

I'm nowhere near the end, but can't help wondering will I be able to continue to explore and do stuff after I finish the main quest?

Spoiler

After beating Ganon, the game will put a star next to the autosave from right before you begin the battle. You can leave from there and do all of the side quests, shrines, etc. you want before going back to fight him again. Also if you load from that save it will show your overall completion rate on the map screen.

This has probably been covered already 100 different times but what is generally the best method for getting rupees? I'm assuming it's selling monster parts but is there a "known" best return on investment? or are there other items that are easy to acquire that sell for higher prices?

Just as an FYI, I basically have the entire map unlocked so location doesn't really matter.

Selling ore. Look for ore deposits to break up or find Talus monsters to farm.

Good question. I am interested as well.

I have been hunting, cooking, and selling meat for most of my rupees at this point.

Selling ore.

Which ore is safest to sell?

Sell them all. You can easily re-obtain anything without screwing yourself over later.

Just beat the last Divine Beast.

Do I want to go after Ganon or not, decisions, decisions.

How do you get Lynel guts? I have killed maybe three at this point, and none have dropped guts...

It's feasible.

Is it a good idea? Depends on how powerful you want to be when you play the main quests. The more you upgrade hearts or stamina the easier everything gets.

If it's anything like Bokoblin and Moblin guts, they're a rarer drop.

I just fought a silver Lynel in Hyrue Castle during a thunderstorm.

Epic as fuck.

Snow bowling.

http://www.gamerevolution.com/faq/t...f-the-wild/a-guide-to-snowball-bowling-129915

Strike = 300 rupees
Spare = 100 rupees.

20 rupee fee though.

Edit: Not sure if the guide mentions it but you shouldn't have an open weapon slot or you'll get a weapon instead of 300 rupees.

 

[wild wild rice]

Thank you, BlueLiquid, but I'm not gonna click that big ass spoiler, lol. Was hoping for a basic yes or no, but I have no problem finding out for myself I guess.

Thanks, so there's no quest items that will block the shrines/towers then?

Tbh this is what I was hoping, I don't know if I'm up for it being a big challenge. I just want to relax and enjoy the game.

 

[Thud]

100 shrines down. Pretty hard to imagine there's still 20 hidden lol.

Might want to hang onto Monster Parts for a special thing later on :/

Ore is good to sell but certain higher level armor upgrades require them. You can always farm more ore and monster parts, but consider holding onto a few of the more valuable Ore like Diamonds.

Cooking 5 item dishes from mushrooms, fish, meat, and flowers can sell for a couple hundred rupees. Depends on how much you want to get into post game activities this may be the best option.

The answer is Yes. You get a save point the second before the last encounter.

his corruption should had rotten your food to make him a real challenge!

It's not a spoiler. The answer is Yes.

Well monster parts were the easiest thing to get more of with little difficulty, for me anyways.

And for holding on to monster parts are you referring to the

Kilton store stuff?

How do you get Lynel guts? I have killed maybe three at this point, and none have dropped guts...

I'm in a similar situation. I've hunted and killed 4 or 5 Lynels and no guts yet. I don't know if they are a rare drop for all Lynels or if only a certain Lynel type will drop them at times. The problem for me is that they have such a crazy amount of HP that I break a ton of weapons on them. Farming them isn't hard, its just tedious.

I need to get 6 of them and I have none so far.

 

[Josh5890]

My brother finished the game last night. He has played ~120 hours. His completion % was 27.1%

This game is insaine

 

[theaface]

Any tips for getting a blupee (blue rabbit) to spawn? Need a pic of one for a side quest. I keep trying near the fairy fountain and Kakariko, and the blossom tree pond where the Lord of the Mountain is (though he doesn't show up either).

Edit: Literally as I post this one finally shows up in Kakariko.

It's a rare drop for all lynel, kill higher level lynel and you should get them faster. Get bananas from faron(very common)and make +3 attack food to kill them even quicker.

 

[FreedomFighter]

My Sheikah Slate lost its map functionality while exploring a part of the desert. Any way to prevent this?

Speaking of Gerudo Desert, this is probably the best desert area I've played in a video game.

Even better than Lanayru province in Skyward Sword?

So any Lynel should do? Thanks!! I actually did get some bananas recently in that area when I was looking for the Stone Talus enemies to farm. I'll make some attack up food and keep farming the Lynels

[Jazzem]

Game finished! 80 hours with 91 shrines, want to go back and do everything aside from korok seeds (will be happy just getting all equipment loads maxed). Definitely going to be more lax on that though heh, a bit exhausted from playing so much.

So I just beat Ganon. Man, I really should have just gone to Ganon ages ago. I was very, very overprepared. I fought him having beat 3 of the 4 divine beasts. Ok so just so I know, I need all the memories to get another ending, right?

Yeah no kidding huh =/ It's a shame as one of the things I love about the game is how much tension and dread there is surrounding certain threats in the world, but two of them end up being a bit underwhelming;

Spoiler

Yiga clan for being played for laughs in the end

, and then the final boss being too easy.

Ah well, game was tremendous regardless

I knew it, the notes you sometimes hear around the death mountain are from the ganon dugeon of the original zelda

Ha yeah, I spotted that as well. Great touch

Most shrines are reachable from the get go. Some are only revealed via shrine quests, others are in areas of extreme weather/temperature, so you'll need the appropriate clothing (usually sold in shops). Other than that, everything is up for grabs as soon as you leave the plateau.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

Before I finish this game I want to check if there's any big quests or anything worth doing first. Here's the stuff I've completed.

Spoiler

I've done the 3 mazes and the island. I have the Master Sword and I've built the town out east. I've killed the Molduga.

Any world bosses or anything I may have missed?

Thanks, one last one if you don't mind, is the Master Sword tied to a story quest or can I go find that now too?

 

[Moff]

So you're saying that it's absolutely worthwhile to keep upgrading my gear and hearts to better prepare for Ganon?

well he can be beaten with 3 hearts and naked
it's likely you'll beat him now, but in my opinion it's absolutely worthwile

he is the toughest enemy in the game

 

[Freshmire]

So any Lynel should do? Thanks!! I actually did get some bananas recently in that area when I was looking for the Stone Talus enemies to farm. I'll make some attack up food and keep farming the Lynels

According to the compendium, yeah. Red Lynels are all but gone in my save so I can't 100% confirm it.

Restless crickets. Need ten of them, where? For some reason I have a hard time finding them.

Go to the spiral place in Akkala while its raining. I got like 30 crickets that way

 

[BizzyBum]

Thanks, one last one if you don't mind, is the Master Sword tied to a story quest or can I go find that now too?

You can find it at any time but you won't be able to acquire it at the start. You get it by

having at least 13 hearts to pull it out.

 

[DragonGirl]

Sadly, in my quest to get my horse to swim, it seems the only way to do so is to scare it into the water with a bomb. Here's the little thing I'd like patched into the game. Wolf Link can be commanded to stay, otherwise it follows you. I'd like a similar command with the horses. The horse stays, unless you command it to follow you, would make riding up to a forest to then forage or explore a lot more convenient, also if I catch another horse, having my trained one follow while I ride the new one to a stable would be nice. While following, the horse should also be fine with swimming. If I can swim somewhere, the horse should too.

 

[Primethius]

I wish I could turn off the "cinematic" camera angles when your locked on in a fight. They are so annoying.

 

[lt519]

And for holding on to monster parts are you referring to the

Spoiler

Kilton store stuff?

Yes, to get all of the

Spoiler

Dark Link

armor you need around

Spoiler

4,000 Rupees worth of monster parts and the conversion rate isn't as good so its more like 6000 Rupees

. I also regretted selling some monster parts given the requirements for upgrading all the armor if you are a completionist. I guess my point was most throwaway items you have are those used to craft food and they are easily obtained and dishes can catch some good prices.

 

[forknknife]

I paraglide right through.

Ah, me too, but still tricky as I had to drop when the guardians were about to shoot then go back up again using the streams... intense!

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

Need help, long story short, got distracted getting the

and went exploring, ended up using them in a panic. Now I can't seem to get anymore to respawn in the area near

but yet to come across it.

Thanks, one last one if you don't mind, is the Master Sword tied to a story quest or can I go find that now too?

You can go where the sword is right away (through some effort), but

you will need a specific number of hearts in order to remove it from its pedestal.
