I looked online for missed pieces of armor. Sorry, but I have gaming FOMO. Also I'm starting to get bothered by my lack of armor. The recent trek to the west used so much food it was ridiculous.

So I get the zora helmet, which allows me to attack while swimming, another rubber item, and most important, whether I missed any great fairy or not.

And I did. In Akkala, right under my nose. I was starting to feel it was strange I never found a fairy beyond the one in kakariko.

After a sequence hunting materials to put all my stuff at +2 (well not all, I need another item from farosh and a freaking lynel horn for some stuff. Geez), I complete the soldier set +2 which reduces a whopping 9 hearts from any hits I take.

Time to test it. I go to challenge my old enemy, Guardian Scout IV. With all that armor, my best guardian weapons and attack boosting food, I (barely) best it, and claim shrine 45.

However... this was still just a test run.

The next step of my plan happens at the Great Plateau. Where I once had to climb walls to dodge damaged guardians and reach a shrine. Ive already beaten a damaged guardian once, but it took 3 ancient arrows and I don't have access to more of those now. What I need is consistency. So I grab my shield, and start practicing deflecting the guardian beams, until I can get the timing right. The armor ensures they need 2 beams to kill me, but I want to take no damage. Eventually, I kill all 3 damaged guardians in a row without losing any HP.

Now where to next?

You see, the tower at central hyule field, the one I almost lost my horse trying to reach, is located at the west part of it. I just unlocked another tower at Ridgelands, which borders the west of Central Hyrule. I have a good starting point to raid the tower now, while minimizing the number of guardians in the way. And stronger armor, a few +2 guardian weapons I got from the scout, and the skill to deflect beams.

It is time to reclaim Central Hyrule. With a map, I'll be able to find all those memories the painter keeps pointing me to.
