gleeoks are such a pain because unless you have the right combination of equipment (corresponding elemental keese eyes, 3x shot bow, and a decent supply of arrows) theyre super tedious

Ive only beat a couple of them, I think just king gleeoks actually, because its just not worth the resources

As long as you do enough damage (so a good weapon), you could probably do it with 9 arrows (no more than 18), and same number of eyes. Maybe a few rocket shields, as well

Yeah Gleeoks end up being for their own sake. Great fights that you either have to be tough for or "puzzle solve" them, but ultimately what you get isn't worth the price of admission.

Lynels feel waaaayyyy more rewarding.

Top tier Bow, weapon parts and their drops power up some of the stronger outfits?

Hell yeah.

I think one of the horns is like +55 damages, which is really good (Especially on Gerudo weapons)

Rocket shields trivialize them.

I love the Gleeok weapons just because they never run out of "charge" like the other elemental weapons and they look cool

Just beat the game. Holy shit, that was awesome

Wow, wow, wow. What an experience. I'm probably at like 120 hours played or so... waiting for the credits to end

Yeah, "120 hours or more."

There are very few games I can think of where I put that much time into one play through, especially in the 3D era.

I can for certain games. Probably too many games. Haha. Like Im at 260 or more for this. I had hundreds of hours in Hyrule Warriors. And certain Roguelikes/Roguelites

Nice! I loved the last fight.

I did all of the gleeoks and I'm taking a break from miniboss fights to do some korok seeds. I'm at 74% completion according to the map, but none of the bosses contributed to that. Korok seeds add 0.04% each it seems

I was out casually hunting koroks and wells when I happened upon some wheels near Death Mountain. I started toying around with them and eventually made a Russian Roulette machine. Two wheels are glued to the top of a panel. On one wheel is a control stick. On the other is a cannon. You and the cannon spin around until either your battery runs out or the cannon blows you up. I guess if you wanna do multiplayer, just deploy it in front of an enemy or in a camp and whoever it kills first loses.

From my understanding, the percentage is for map completion only, so pretty much anything that leaves an icon on the map after you discovered it. I think this includes any secondary cave entrances so even if you got the Bubbul gem, you may not be entirely done with it.

Oh god I hope that's not the case >-<

EDIT: It is the case. Found a cave entrance I hadn't gone through before and the percentage went up

I spent way too much time wondering what some lights on the ground were, then realized what the "shining steps" upgrade actually does. I've had that upgrade for a while too.

I was wondering when I first got the upgrade And when I next went to the depths, I was just like, Oh! Thats pretty cool! I enjoyed that upgrade

Probably my favorite armor next to the skydiving armor and maybe Yiga. Pretty easy to get maximum upgrade on too.

Yea it's rough. When I beat the game I was at 99.31% completion and that last bit was a pain to figure out.

I built the house for him more than for me.

Awww. So much nicer than the frozen hellscape where I left my horse for most of the game. He's safe at my house now though. >_>

Its one of my favorites, too And like you said, it was easy to upgrade. So I wore it a lot at the beginning

Also, I recently upgraded all my horses Well, all the ones that were upgradable

I spent way too much time trying to get the last stone tablet, then looked up how to do it only to find out that the tablet from the sky island above Lookout Landing is the one that's on the ground in Lookout Landing. The real last tablet was the one by the labyrinth in the desert.

I did make a nifty three stage rocket that kind of worked though.

MayTree takes their crack.

Finished the game. I liked the final fight but I'm not a huge fan of the ending. Not sure I'll bother to go get all the shrines even.

Apparently Stone Cold is a big fan.

I remember either reading something or listening to him talk about Breath of the Wild, so that checks out.

I need to get back to this, haven't played in a couple weeks lmao. Work and other games keeping me busy.

Holy shit. Ganondorf REKT my Hyrulian Shield so easily in like a few hits. The shield was pristine too before the battle.

You should be okay. You don't lose anything you bring to the final battle. You'll have your shield back when you reload your save.

Yeah, but didn't expect Mr. Dorf to break a fresh Hyrulian Shield with only a few hits. My life flashed before my eyes.

135 hours in

• Just battled my first Lynel that wasn't in the floating coliseum
• Remembered what great fairies are for, so I've got a bunch of clothing sets fully upgraded now
• Did a few more shrines and got a couple more hearts. Still on the first row of hearts.

135 hours is a lot of time for only half the shrines completed, imo. What have you been doing in the meantime?

I slowed down the shrine hunt after I got all the stamina wheels. I spent a bunch of time exploring the sky islands, collecting zonaite to get full battery charges, doing the main story quests, a bunch of side quests, and experimenting with crafting.

I mean, the game offers a lot of other stuff to do. Its easy to have a ton of hours without all the shrines If they arent solely going for shrines, then it makes sense to only have however many

Can anyone tell me where to find this korok? The mask is alerting me to something and I cant find it anywhere. this is southeast of Hyrule field

My instinct was that it was under the bridge, but I just checked and it looks like a repair the roof korok in the area you circled.

Lol I have 150 hours into this game and I had no idea this was a thing

CyricZ posted...

Oh...oh sweetie. Yes. ._. If you see a small shelter with a sliver of roof missing and a grabbable plank around, you may be able to repair it for a korok. A few of them have statues under the shelter to draw your attention.

*ahem*

I have enough Koroks. o_o

Finished last night after 140 hours. Completion total...59%.

Yeah I'm definitely not going to try and 100% this game lol.

Isnt the percentage just map percentage?

I've seen a couple. There's like an awning or whatever with a slab laying around somewhere that you put back in its place.

XD that's valid. I've been wandering around sniffing out koroks, but I don't intend on hunting down every last one of them. They're great as little stops on your way to some place and a way to kill time, but that's it for me. People complain about how annoying the quest is and how you "have to" find a million of them and I'm just like...then don't?
