Tip also for anyone who didnt know: when you see the very start of a blood moon happen (you'll see a red moon rise, then eventually notice the misty smoke in the air), cook if you're near a cookfire! All recipes will get the bonus.

there's a blood moon cooking bonus??
― Nhex, Monday, 15 January 2018 04:23 (six years ago) link
yep! its a pretty small window but time seems to stop when you throw food in the pot so if you do that over and over in quick succession Ive found I can fit in at least 4 or 5 recipes if I time it right.
That said I never seem to be near a bloody pot when it happens.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 15 January 2018 04:26 (six years ago) link
The bonus appears to stop after the moon peak/cut scene, its worth noting.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 15 January 2018 04:27 (six years ago) link
that is really cool, first i've heard of this bonus!
im unlocking the various shrines in the lost woods. this game is magic

blood moon cooking bonus is news to me as well. finished up goron beast yesterday. felt like a stroll through tarry town square after gerudo beast. I can see by what you carry (about 40 loads of wood) that you come from tarry town.

this game
wow
― ||||||||, Saturday, 27 January 2018 15:00 (six years ago) link
I wasn’t sure at first. the world seemed so empty for stretches. but you really need that emptiness to make all the little discoveries so magical

the dev presentation about the world design someone posted is fantastic if you can find the link
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Saturday, 27 January 2018 18:00 (six years ago) link
it was great, but got screwed up because the guy took down the pictures by request since they were from a private presentation
― Nhex, Saturday, 27 January 2018 20:11 (six years ago) link
Damn. I would read a book about BotW design.

Had this for a month now and still loving it. I'm pretty inexperienced/slow - I just made it to hurricane windy Ganon, my first boss fight, and decided to run away again until I've got more hearts. That fucker's tricky - or is it just me? I hope it's just me.
― Chuck_Tatum, Saturday, 17 February 2018 12:39 (six years ago) link
Thunderblight was trickiest for me
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Saturday, 17 February 2018 15:52 (six years ago) link
the others seemed to have tricks to beating them
yeah the wind one is prob the easiest of the four tbh
― ciderpress, Saturday, 17 February 2018 17:11 (six years ago) link
still cant kill the camel one, been about 5 months since my first effort lol
its the second bit with metal shards where i just cant see him anywhere
― nxd, Saturday, 17 February 2018 17:13 (six years ago) link
I'm so excited, because I've been piddling around with a bunch of indies but have yet to start this or Odyssey. One of them will be my reward for finishing "Celeste."
― Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 17 February 2018 19:44 (six years ago) link
I found the camel one the hardest by far
― Screamin' Jay Gould (The Yellow Kid), Saturday, 17 February 2018 19:57 (six years ago) link
Josh it's AMAZING and you will be AMAZED
I've also held back on Odyssey as a reward - gonna buy it when I've finished some university coursework next week...
― Chuck_Tatum, Saturday, 17 February 2018 20:40 (six years ago) link
Thunderblight Ganon is the undisputed hardest boss ime
― direct to consumer online mattress brand (silby), Saturday, 17 February 2018 20:51 (six years ago) link
Oh I see, you gotta use the wind turrets, duh
― Chuck_Tatum, Saturday, 17 February 2018 21:53 (six years ago) link
only way to beat thunderblight (camel) is to take your licks along with shock resist or a ton of hearty heart heart meals
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Sunday, 18 February 2018 04:49 (six years ago) link
I wish I could get that far, I cant work out the camels innards!
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 10:29 (six years ago) link
i remember that taking me forever
― Nhex, Sunday, 18 February 2018 10:30 (six years ago) link
camel's a xunt
― ||||||||, Sunday, 18 February 2018 12:44 (six years ago) link
The inside of that camel was the only part of the whole game that made me say fuck this shit, I had to leave it
― nate woolls, Sunday, 18 February 2018 13:07 (six years ago) link
btw I said it over there but it bears repeating: Odyssey is a disappointment
― flamboyant goon tie included, Sunday, 18 February 2018 14:42 (six years ago) link
take that back
― ||||||||, Sunday, 18 February 2018 15:28 (six years ago) link
its actually so good,
― ciderpress, Sunday, 18 February 2018 17:01 (six years ago) link
LOL thats exactly why Ive stalled. I have to complete this to be able to complete a shrine quest (I'm only 3 shrines away from completion) and THEN I can go git Ganon. I mean fuck. I spose I could just go get him now. I dont need all 4 champions. Would I be able to try Vah Naboris after I did the main quest?
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:21 (six years ago) link
Just do it Trayce!
― Nhex, Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:26 (six years ago) link
That is, the camel
I couldnt even do it cheating with a fecking YT walkthru ;_;
I have a real shit sense of direction and the spinning tubes confuse my stupid brain.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:38 (six years ago) link
i never went back after the shitty water boss, just can’t be bothered
― reverse-periscoping (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:48 (six years ago) link
That boss was the easiest one!
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:56 (six years ago) link
And the bosses are totally worth doing for the champion boons they give you - Miphas extra life spell, and the Rito's airjump are especially useful.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:57 (six years ago) link
I found wind and water easiest, and yeh the added abilities are super useful
― nxd, Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:23 (six years ago) link
fuck this electro dude
― nxd, Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:24 (six years ago) link
That boss was the easiest one!sure, i wasn’t having fun and just can’t be arsed with it. maybe if i collect enough heart containers or whatever.
― reverse-periscoping (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:32 (six years ago) link
Well yeah, dont go into the bosses on 3 hearts and no weapons. I didnt even go near them til I had over twice that, the master sword, and some decent armour and powerups.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:40 (six years ago) link
But I'm also someone who, as Ive said heaps, can just wander around picking mushrooms, galloping on my souped-up black steed (he has the cool Ancient saddle that means I can teleport-call him!) and staring off into space from a cliff, Brian Cox-styles.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:41 (six years ago) link
ganon......... done. what a game
― belcalis almanzar (||||||||), Saturday, 3 March 2018 10:28 (six years ago) link
only 19.60% complete... fffffffuuuuuuu-...
― belcalis almanzar (||||||||), Saturday, 3 March 2018 10:40 (six years ago) link
FINALLY GOT THE DESERT BEAST DONE ARRRRGH.
...I had to follow a youtube step by step to do it :/ how in gods name are the puzzles in that camel obvious to anyone!?
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 4 March 2018 01:20 (six years ago) link
it was challenging for me. Partly because it was boring.
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Sunday, 4 March 2018 05:27 (six years ago) link
It was far too unnecessarily elaborate. That bit especially with the 3 or 4 metal blocks you had to slide around in 3 jillion combos before it all lit up the electrix... how could anyone work that out? I couldnt even have FOUND that bit without the bloody walkthru.
ANyway the boss dude after all that wasnt so hard, I guess. Now I've unlocked the new DLC Champions Ballad stuff so Ive more to do before finishing Ganon off yay.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 4 March 2018 07:28 (six years ago) link
Any chance you could post a link to the YouTube vid you used?

Nate: this is the one I used but its not the best, he speeds up a lot of the bits where hes picking the map rotations. But he skips bothering with all the chests, so its a good quick guide:
