Defeat a Lynel with Puffshrooms: Get about 10 and just keep putting the Lynel in a cloud. Wack him from behind, and he'll just stand there looking confused. Just make sure to throw another one out before the previous dissipates.
A tip for maxing out batteries: defeat depths mini bosses like talus and frox. They drop 20 crystallized charges and they are basically everywhere in the depths
I usually go to the floating colliseum. There's 5 Lynels there and they each drop 20 charges, which means that you can get 1 energy well per blood moon just by going to one spot.
I started doing this towards the end of my battery journey and I've kept battling things in the depths since. I have more charges than I know what to do with because I don't buy devices from the refining constructs enough.
If you’re in a really dark part of the depths and don’t know if the ground is suddenly going to fall away, the star fragment wand does come in handy to show where the best place to shoot a bright bloom is for instance. Pretty niche, but it can be useful early on when you don’t have hundreds of bright blooms in stock. I also always equip a luminous Talus heart shield in the unexplored depths for light if I don’t want to change armor.
Im 44. I got a Switch about a year before Covid. Got addicted to BOTW during the id. Loving TOTK!! I'm just so impressed with the ingenuity and creativity I see and learn from while watching these videos. It's so interesting to see how people find different solutions to the same challenges.
More storage space. See a weapon or talus heart you want but don't have room. Use your shields as extra storage. I attach those to mostly all my shields then separate at pelison when needed.
When you fuse a star fragment to a weapon, the balls of light it shoots out illuminate the darkness really brightly. This means you can explore the depths REALLY well when you shoot out the balls of light. It's helped me a bunch. (something i forgot to mention is it only really helped me really early, and even then, as cool as it is, its kind of a waste to the point where it might as well do nothing, brightblooms are just way better to use overall.)
Ehh, I prefer to stick to throwing Brightbloom Seeds or firing them off arrows, myself. I’ve never had problems with shortage of those, and I never really felt the Star Rod’s temporary orbs of light were worth spending a Star Fragment and a weapon slot on either, so even when I found Star Rods I just took them to Tarrey Town to disassemble them, add the Fragment to my stock and use the Magic Rod for something else
@@tricmagic no they don't, the light doesn't even harm them at all. The only way a star rod (or whatever the other two similar weapons are called) will defeat a stal enemy is by hitting them with the actual weapon. Only dazzle fruit (possibly light from a mirror shield or lamp, I dunno rn) kill stal enemies outright.
As a minor correction with wing despawn, their durability timer runs down when they're generating lift, which causes the little white air trails to come off the tips of the wings. Flying them backwards doesn't generate lift, but the wings really want to fly right-side-up and forward, as you noticed. However, the lift generated by 1x balloon and 1x 45° fan is sufficient to override the lift of a wing, meaning you can fly it forward without it despawning so long as you have that much lift.
The scope is also a handy way to orient yourself through the sand shrouds in Gerudo Desert: you can go above them on an updraft or something, pull out your scope in midair and pin the place you want to go to, or some landmark in that general direction. Then when you land, you can pull out your scope again on the ground and you’ll be able to see your pin, even through the sand shroud
@@TylerXC91 that’s an option too, but not everyone knows how to or wants to spend devices or Zonaite just for that 😛 Besides, there’s something poetic about getting to make your own beacon to find your way through the sandstorm, with something given to you by Purah and Zelda no less…
I used the depths map to navigate around with the sand shroud. Just remember how valleys and hills work between the surface and the depths and it's not hard at all!
The korok autobuild especially comes in handy if you’re using a hoverbike bc their placement can make it difficult to control. Also along with Tulin pumping if you’re wearing the diving suit you can quickly dive then hit X to cancel right before hitting B, so it’s just R-X-B real quick, and you get crazy speed.
24:42 - 24:47 omg dude you have no idea how much this helped me! Those last 16 Bubbulfrogs are mine now! I’ve visited every cave and Koltin stopped telling me where he could sense the frogs…
That one that short-circuits the Lynels is a great one. I knew about it, only using the horseshoe shaped Zonai pieces you find during a rail section of the Construct Factory quest, but Treasure Chests are obviously better. Great video, there were *TONS* that I didn't know on here!
@@100PercentZelda Number 79 doesn't seem to work for me, tested it on a Silver Lynel in the depths. All 4 chests of 2+2 stacks broke (vanished) easily. I used 2 different types of chests that you get as drops from Like Likes, the green ones with the dragonface on it (got them from eldin depths like likes) and the silver metal ones, (which I got from near kakariko depths like likes). Do Like Like treasure chests not work in particular? Or is this already patched? BTW I'm on version 1.20.

Here's some more... - Use Forest Dweller's weapons alongside Brightbloom Seeds, Puffshrooms and more if you're running low on these items. Fuse Recycling allows certain consumable materials to regenerate and be used again. - This is more of a carry over from BoTW, but generally, the ultimate weapon against Lynels is a Royal Guard's Claymore with a White Lynel Sabre Horn fused to it, on its last hit. It combines the Critical Hit from breaking and the Breaking Point property for extreme damage whilst also being reusable when mounted on a Lynel. Also when mounting a Lynel, you can't take damage from using Gloom weapons. - Star Fragments fused to shields and gems fused to magic rods provide a decent amount of light in the Depths or dark caves.
@@psbpaladin Well, you can. But only when they're stunned (e.g. as a result of headshotting them with a bow and arrow). This just gives you free hits against it that don't cost weapon durability.
You mentioned water on surface being walls in depths and shrines being same location as lightroots, but didn't mention Lynels being located in the depths below stables on the surface 25:39
- Throwing water on urself to withstand heat also works with Sidon's bubble. I'm guessing this also contributes to certain weapon bonuses. - Fuse a cannon to a lance/spear and press throw button and now you can aim and shoot FPS style. - There are small metal square platforms in the sky islands that are great to build flying devices specially to gain height. - Dazzlefruit instakills bone enemies. not sure if it was mentioned. - Rock Octoroks repair weapons except for special or legendary weapons, unless you fuse those to regular weapons then they will get repaired.

Here's a silly little tip. If you use a wood bundle to power a hot air balloon, and then soak the bundle (i.e. by landing in water), the wood will still be able to be picked up back into your inventory. Not super useful since wood is so easy to get, but I thought it was interesting when I found out.
I think that might be a glitch. I had a wood pile in a hot air balloon that it let me pick up while it was still on fire once. But then the next time I built one I couldn't get the wood back even after putting the fire out. Not that I tried all that hard.
This vid is super helpful. Not even half way through and I've learned a ridiculous amount of tips. Thanks for the help. Just got involved in TOTK about 2 weeks ago and i cant put it down. This is the best game i ever played. Just amazing.
There's a lot of cool stuff in this! One thing I would add is that if you wanna really get the most out of Amiibo, just save before using them, and if you don't like what you get, load your save
Thank you for collecting these, definitely a few I didn't know! My top tips (story spoilers on tip 6) You can use recall on Rock Like boulders to instantly break their armour. An ice wand is a great way to collect skittish critters like sticky lizards. The legendary Gerudo sabre (forgot its name, the upgraded one) has the same attack doubling effect as the regular one, making for very strong weapons. The Lightscale Trident gains double attack when wet. Splash fruit are plentiful. :) Mark the locations of rare ore stones on your map! They regenerate! Mineru's arms can break ores and boxes without needing to fuse anything to them, saving durability.
What is the one about skittish creatures like sticky lizards? If they fall in the water do they still despawn. They are the hardest to collect and seeing they are often over water carrying an ice rod specifically for them seems a bit of a waste or a slot if they still despawn. iirc when I last played I just used dazlefruit on arrows.
When you get on a dragon's back, you can run up and down them to collect spike fragments. You'll get at least 12 each time. You can attach the fire and ice spike shards to your shields to add cold and heat resistance to open up a free slot of clothing. A much better method than relying on ruby and sapphire gems.
On Flux Constructs, take away enough blocks and they break apart. The core just causes it instantly, but can be hard to do on Construct 3s. No legs means it breaks. For cubes just keep removing blocks.
The Lynels will despawn autobuilt chests after v1.2 update. But there are other items that will work in their place, such as the fanblades from one of the depots in the depths. Look it up.
I've been waiting for tips combined into one, I'm still so in awe at this game! It's 100% (ha got it) my favourite game of all time. Even nostalgia couldn't beat it for me. Love ur content! Earned a sub.
Small thing: you can surf on a rocket shield. Its hard to control and you can be knocked off, but before tullin it can give you some horizontal speed. The timing can be tricky too, the rocket turns on quick
You should try this throughout the entire Zora dungeon area. If you pump rocket surfing while wearing the full glide armor you can go from the entrance at the top of the waterfall all the way to the boss room of the dungeon in under a minute.
It really is super awesome that for one of the first times in Zelda games that the problems and puzzles are able to be solved in multiple ways now instead of just a single way. I’d love it if they could implement it in an even greater way
A tip that I have is, if you have a wide enough updraft, you can get a horizontal as well as a vertical boost if you have tulin's ability available. The easiest way to do this of course is use yunobo's power to create an updraft, then start gliding and use tulin's as soon as possible. By the time you land, yunobo's power will be almost fully charged ready for another updraft.
@@100PercentZelda FWIW: Since devising this tactic, no cave I've approached has had keese burst out, so it is technically theoretical on my part! I hope it pays off for you! I stream my Zelda adventures everyday so I'll keep trying, and if I can get footage I'll let you know.
Thank you so much about the cave tip! I finished all of them and turned out that I'm missing some of the bubbul gems. I was sure that I'd need to visit all of them again!
Also, Ive found the more compatible the fuse item is to the weapon type, the more attack you get out of it (for instance; zonai attachments to zonai weapons get more attack & "spear" type attachments to long sticks or spears get more increased attack etc). Sorry if this was already covered in the vid tho! I havent finished watching yet 😅
@100PercentZelda me neither, and I may be remembering wrong, but I just seemed to notice especially for all spear/halbird type weapons certain attachments were a lot less effective and you got less atk points the less compatible they seemed lol 😅. Thanks so much for your amazing video and work btw!! I really wish I stumbled upon this earlier haha 🙌
1:23 personally here I put talus hearts on my shield as they can’t be collected, while also look cooler. Also luminous stone gives you a blue version of lv 1 glow which I have to get a permanent glow light. Rare hearts dose nothing as far as I know. Also remember this means you don’t have to change clothes that often and get better use of others like attack up or weather attack
3:27 I did just that. Seeing them smash the small fry is satisfying. I also used the apple gathering trick. 17:26 I think you put it together wrong. 19:51 That's a BOTW trick. 21:55 I covered campfires with a Zonai device while it's raining. I usually put in 5 small Zonai charges into those dispensers. 28:04 I totally do that. 28:25 I didn't know you could do that.
Tip for feeling powerful when upgrading health / Stamina: Instead of turning them in right away, see how many shrines you can do without turning them in. When you start to feel 'weak' you can cash in the orbs in bulk.
Tip for easily fighting Lynels: if you get tulin to aggro (take out his bow) the Lynel with start attacking him and completely ignore you. This is because Lynel (if you are wearing the Lynel or Majora's mask) will not attack you unless you take out your bow. Hope this helps ( ╹▽╹ )
if you fuse a luminous talus heart to your sheild u can get a nice glow radius around you. its a softer light but the range is similar to two lvls of glow effect
Fun fact: In 117 you mentioned that you can autobuild a with korok. But if you build that autobuild in front of any korok’s friend it counts! The build could be as simple as attaching an apple to a korok!
One thing to add to the Lynel roars cannot destroy treasure chests; the U-shaped blocks from the Construct Factor are also unbreakable. Additionally, for one-shot protection, it's not just specific enemies that can ignore it; any attack damage over a certain threshold (20 damage or 5 full hearts over your effective max HP) will bypass it and one-shot you regardless of full HP or not. Physical attacks with an elemental damage (think a Boko using a wooden stick that is on fire, or any elemental weapon) also bypasses it due to being 2 sources of damage (the element and the physical attack). Armor, hearty food and defense food can further bolster your one-shot protection since the game checks for net damage on max HP+overheal, not raw damage on overall max HP.
@@100PercentZelda I heard that too, another video showed that using a stabilizer to break off two fan blades like the ones in the spirit temple. Fuze those together at 90 degree and you have a ramp to walk up to the Lynel's back while he is locked roaring.
At 9:23 omg I can't believe you shared one of the most life changing tips I ever found... to fuse two unopened chests together and push it in front of a lynel! I discovered it on a random YT Short- however it wasn't explained at all but I wanted to fight a lynel without teleporting mid-pummel, just once. So it worked well for red, blue, white and silver lynels that I tried on the surface. I tried twice on white or armored lynels in the depths. Seemed to hit its limit there... One more thing I might add is I'm pretty sure (read from other players comments) that this glitch was patched in 1.2.0, and so I have not updated my game from 1.1.2. And I try not to let it bother me that I can't receive any of the News Channel item freebies bc I've finally outgrown my fear of Lynels thanks to my conjoined twin treasure chests so I'll never let them go ☺
My favorite tip would be you can put bright bloom seeds on your builds for free light, I like to have it on a hoverbike autobuild and let it build at height so when it drops it blooms
One i invented on my own playthrough and used quite a bit: If you had to jump off your hoverbike for some reason and want to easily find where it rolled off to, just look around with recall
you can do a kinda thing like with tulin but you need the skydive set (you dive then cancel the dive with the set on then glide) and you will go much faster you can also combine this with the tulin technique to make you go further after the speed runs out from the glide set dive thingy
I’m feeling proud of myself - I figured out a lot of these on my own! 👏🤓 The one I like the most that I didn’t know, and that made me laugh, is the fused rocks to solve korok rock puzzles 😜
try using the star fragment staff in the depths, its especially useful to see if there is ground underneath you when its too dark all you have to do is a downward attack.
3:16 Actually, star fragment balls of light DO do something; they kill stal- type enemies instantly, so long as it's not a boss (eg. Stalnox). Same with Dazzlefruits!
Amazing compilation of tips and tricks. In the entire video, I only saw two tips that used reloading to game the system. Other than those, all tips were legit knowledge and expertise. Again, amazing overall. Must have taken a long time to put this together. It was great to watch. Thanks.
Great video. Already knew the majority but the few tips I didn’t know are definitely gonna be a big help. Especially the trick with moving material to the front of most used. I’ll give my own tip like every one else seems to be doing even tho it’s probably basic by now lol but I’m at the point where I’m just going around looking for the last hundred or so koroks so some times running into mobs can be quite annoying. Especially multiple silver enemies. I make sure to keep a flurry rushed enhanced ice weapon (I like the halberds for this personally but the result isn’t much different for other types) and it destroys any silver monster in I wanna say 3 hits. Could be more hits than that, but it’s definitely no more than 5. As for the fusion material I usually use the ice gleeok horn so the effect stays on. Pristine Flurry Rush weapon + Ice Gleeok Horn is one of my fav fusions.
I actually learned the Octorok Balloon trick while fighting the Mucktoroks in the Depths as it gave me enough height to enter Bullet Time and hit the Mucktorok with a Multi Shot Bow for extra damage plus Mucktoroks drop a lot of Octorok Balloons after they've been defeated so it was easier to fuse them to my shields and use them instead of rockets also Constructs can't swim either
Plus, breaking crates drops way more arrows (even bundles of arrows) than it did back in BotW. In BotW I was always somewhat close to running out of arrows. But now I rarely drop below 200.
Thank you for all the amazingly helpful tips. I’ve recently got back into the game after a break, so I came across this video at the perfect time. Have a great day!
Hey, thanks to nr 150, after a long time trying I finally got to mount the glider in the air!!!! Also there are a bunch of things I did not know yet. Great job with this video.
If you use amiibo only to get certain things, do a hard save, use the amiibo and see what you get, if it’s not what you want then simply reload the game. Fixing champion weapons and bow is easy, just fuse them to a shield and let the octorock have a go at it, then both shield and weapon/bow is as good as new. Also, if I stumble on a weapon I might want but there’s no room in my inventory I just fuse it to a shield for safe keeping.
Bonus tip for the cart-shield fusion. You can grind on rails with any shield, as long as it isn't fused with something that would normally hinder shield surfing like a gem or a fruit.
You can trigger a blood moon anytime by shooting opals with multi shot bows at breakable rocks in caves. Also, a panic blood moon will automatically occur if you visit any of the main towns before the first blood moon. This blood moon comes out of nowhere and is scary, but it is a good early game tip for farming zonaite

Also if you attach any of the emitters to a boomerang, it will use 3 energy cells but it will do a massive range of it’s emitter variant.

You can use gleeok horns too, the thunder gleeok horn is better then the shock emitter for this.

An ice wand is a great way to collect skittish critters like sticky lizards.
The legendary Gerudo sabre (forgot its name, the upgraded one) has the same attack doubling effect as the regular one, making for very strong weapons.
The Lightscale Trident gains double attack when wet. Splash fruit are plentiful. :)
Mark the locations of rare ore stones on your map! They regenerate!
Mineru's arms can break ores and boxes without needing to fuse anything to them, saving durability.
What is the one about skittish creatures like sticky lizards?
If they fall in the water do they still despawn.
They are the hardest to collect and seeing they are often over water carrying an ice rod specifically for them seems a bit of a waste or a slot if they still despawn. iirc when I last played I just used dazlefruit on arrows.
These are some of my favorites:
9:53 Repair weaps with octorok.
It's a good one!
When you get on a dragon's back, you can run up and down them to collect spike fragments. You'll get at least 12 each time. You can attach the fire and ice spike shards to your shields to add cold and heat resistance to open up a free slot of clothing. A much better method than relying on ruby and sapphire gems.
thats a good one! thanks!
Riding on the dragons is also a great way to take a tour of the world.
I've been using mine as suped up elemental arrows too, although their AOE is so big I get caught in the crossfire way too often 😅
On Flux Constructs, take away enough blocks and they break apart. The core just causes it instantly, but can be hard to do on Construct 3s. No legs means it breaks. For cubes just keep removing blocks.
It's not that hard actually, just spam ultrahand. Just locking and unlocking makes a block drop, no need to drag it away.
Or if you grab the core wiggle the joystick to scramble him
I believe it's 7 of any blocks..
The Lynels will despawn autobuilt chests after v1.2 update. But there are other items that will work in their place, such as the fanblades from one of the depots in the depths. Look it up.
thanks! I didn't know
I've been waiting for tips combined into one, I'm still so in awe at this game! It's 100% (ha got it) my favourite game of all time. Even nostalgia couldn't beat it for me. Love ur content! Earned a sub.
thanks so much! Welcome to the channel! Hope you enjoy all future content!
Small thing: you can surf on a rocket shield. Its hard to control and you can be knocked off, but before tullin it can give you some horizontal speed.
The timing can be tricky too, the rocket turns on quick
You should try this throughout the entire Zora dungeon area.
If you pump rocket surfing while wearing the full glide armor you can go from the entrance at the top of the waterfall all the way to the boss room of the dungeon in under a minute.
Thanks!
This was super helpful. Thank you for another great video Nikko. My favorite was tip 64 and 115 😂
those are good ones!
It really is super awesome that for one of the first times in Zelda games that the problems and puzzles are able to be solved in multiple ways now instead of just a single way. I’d love it if they could implement it in an even greater way
Haha there wind up being so many ways, I sometimes get curious if there was an intended way haha
A tip that I have is, if you have a wide enough updraft, you can get a horizontal as well as a vertical boost if you have tulin's ability available.
The easiest way to do this of course is use yunobo's power to create an updraft, then start gliding and use tulin's as soon as possible. By the time you land, yunobo's power will be almost fully charged ready for another updraft.
24:36 Have an ice wand ready when approaching a new cave. If a flock of keese rush out, swing to freeze them all and be awash in much-needed eyeballs!
that's a really good one! those keese eyeballs are great!
@@100PercentZelda FWIW: Since devising this tactic, no cave I've approached has had keese burst out, so it is technically theoretical on my part! I hope it pays off for you! I stream my Zelda adventures everyday so I'll keep trying, and if I can get footage I'll let you know.
The Riju shock arrow shot also works great to harvest lots of keese eyeballs from a flock. Score! So satisfying.
Fire doesn’t slowly reduce hp unless they’re standing on something burning, it does a set amount like in BotW
Thanks!
Thank you so much about the cave tip! I finished all of them and turned out that I'm missing some of the bubbul gems. I was sure that I'd need to visit all of them again!
You're very welcome! Good luck! Enjoy!
I’ve been using the Dazzlefruit/Forest Dweller Spear combo forever , such a helpful tip I came across !
That sounds like a great combo!
Does it not use durability when you use it even not hitting an enemy?
Also, Ive found the more compatible the fuse item is to the weapon type, the more attack you get out of it (for instance; zonai attachments to zonai weapons get more attack & "spear" type attachments to long sticks or spears get more increased attack etc). Sorry if this was already covered in the vid tho! I havent finished watching yet 😅
I haven't looked at all of them, but the zonai one for sure is true! Thanks!
@100PercentZelda me neither, and I may be remembering wrong, but I just seemed to notice especially for all spear/halbird type weapons certain attachments were a lot less effective and you got less atk points the less compatible they seemed lol 😅.
Thanks so much for your amazing video and work btw!! I really wish I stumbled upon this earlier haha 🙌
Yeah like fangs and teeth, talons etc get an ATK bonus used on bows/arrows.
kolton mentions it
1:23 personally here I put talus hearts on my shield as they can’t be collected, while also look cooler. Also luminous stone gives you a blue version of lv 1 glow which I have to get a permanent glow light. Rare hearts dose nothing as far as I know.
Also remember this means you don’t have to change clothes that often and get better use of others like attack up or weather attack
That sounds cool! Cool idea! 🛡🪨🤍
3:27 I did just that. Seeing them smash the small fry is satisfying. I also used the apple gathering trick. 17:26 I think you put it together wrong. 19:51 That's a BOTW trick. 21:55 I covered campfires with a Zonai device while it's raining. I usually put in 5 small Zonai charges into those dispensers. 28:04 I totally do that. 28:25 I didn't know you could do that.
That's a lot
Thank you dude this really helps since totk is my first introduction to Zelda games
You're very welcome =)
Tip for feeling powerful when upgrading health / Stamina: Instead of turning them in right away, see how many shrines you can do without turning them in. When you start to feel 'weak' you can cash in the orbs in bulk.
That's a good one
Tip for easily fighting Lynels: if you get tulin to aggro (take out his bow) the Lynel with start attacking him and completely ignore you. This is because Lynel (if you are wearing the Lynel or Majora's mask) will not attack you unless you take out your bow. Hope this helps ( ╹▽╹ )
That's a good tip!
Lol so I just have to kill four lynels at the same time to get able to not be attacked 🤷♂️😂seems useless
@@PickleRick91xyou don’t have to kill them to get a lynel mask. You can get one by spending bubbul gems
if you fuse a luminous talus heart to your sheild u can get a nice glow radius around you. its a softer light but the range is similar to two lvls of glow effect
23:09 yo that sync was perfect👌
Haha you're right I didn't think about that
For the koroks, just attach korok to back of hover bike it is a bit tricky to steer but very quick to complete
ITS FINISHED! Hopefully you could use all or most the clips that I helped you with
If you helped at all, great work. It was a good video!
@@dxconnor just a couple clips to save nikko some time. This was a pretty big project as it is
@@Mindstormer well great job dude, I enjoyed it!!
yes! definitely used most of them!
This is why I love this game so much. There's so much emergent gameplay, the replayability is off the charts!
Fun fact: In 117 you mentioned that you can autobuild a with korok. But if you build that autobuild in front of any korok’s friend it counts! The build could be as simple as attaching an apple to a korok!
Wait... really?... I have to try it!
wait what. if this is true that’s amazing lol
@@dblsomeday it only works on certain versions tho
But you have to speak to the tired korok first in order for his friend to spawn, for otherwise just the tent will be present, right?
@@lonestarr1490 yes but you can just go over to the friend instead of having to bring the korok with you.
I have spent a ridiculous amount of time on TOTK and still did not know a few of these. Thanks!
yay! you're welcome!
Wait what, the Blupee flees toward a grotto?
That's definitely my favorite tip.
Yes!
😮 I didn't know you could fuse the gem to a shield or sword for heat resistance!!!! That saves so much cooking and time
Yes! It's a good one!
One thing to add to the Lynel roars cannot destroy treasure chests; the U-shaped blocks from the Construct Factor are also unbreakable.
Additionally, for one-shot protection, it's not just specific enemies that can ignore it; any attack damage over a certain threshold (20 damage or 5 full hearts over your effective max HP) will bypass it and one-shot you regardless of full HP or not. Physical attacks with an elemental damage (think a Boko using a wooden stick that is on fire, or any elemental weapon) also bypasses it due to being 2 sources of damage (the element and the physical attack). Armor, hearty food and defense food can further bolster your one-shot protection since the game checks for net damage on max HP+overheal, not raw damage on overall max HP.
oh wow! thanks! that makes complete sense! I didn't know that. thanks so much!
I’m still confused about how to transport a korok with an arrow but this is super helpful- thank you!
Shoot a material like a stake close to the korok then attack the korok to the stake. Then recall the stake. The korok will travel with the stake
The treasure chests against the lynels helped a lot. Thank you
You're welcome! I was told it won't work if you update your game though =(
@@100PercentZelda I heard that too, another video showed that using a stabilizer to break off two fan blades like the ones in the spirit temple. Fuze those together at 90 degree and you have a ramp to walk up to the Lynel's back while he is locked roaring.
At 9:23 omg I can't believe you shared one of the most life changing tips I ever found... to fuse two unopened chests together and push it in front of a lynel! I discovered it on a random YT Short- however it wasn't explained at all but I wanted to fight a lynel without teleporting mid-pummel, just once. So it worked well for red, blue, white and silver lynels that I tried on the surface. I tried twice on white or armored lynels in the depths. Seemed to hit its limit there...
One more thing I might add is I'm pretty sure (read from other players comments) that this glitch was patched in 1.2.0, and so I have not updated my game from 1.1.2. And I try not to let it bother me that I can't receive any of the News Channel item freebies bc I've finally outgrown my fear of Lynels thanks to my conjoined twin treasure chests so I'll never let them go ☺
Yeah. Thanks! It's patched but it still cool to know
My favorite tip would be you can put bright bloom seeds on your builds for free light, I like to have it on a hoverbike autobuild and let it build at height so when it drops it blooms
Good tip! Thanks!
@@100PercentZelda you're welcome, I recommend the giant brightbloom for maximum effectiveness
One i invented on my own playthrough and used quite a bit: If you had to jump off your hoverbike for some reason and want to easily find where it rolled off to, just look around with recall
That's a great one!
Also note that Flux Cores, Construct Horns, and Zonai Devices gives Zonai weapons a +10 attack bonus.
That's a good one too! Thanks!
This is the best tip video I ever seen. Blew me away with the shield surfing minecarts on the tracks that was dope!
Yay! Thanks do much!
you can do a kinda thing like with tulin but you need the skydive set (you dive then cancel the dive with the set on then glide) and you will go much faster you can also combine this with the tulin technique to make you go further after the speed runs out from the glide set dive thingy
Thanks! I heard about this, but never tried it =P
I knew like 175 of them but I never knew about opals making water. Good job.
Thanks so much! Happy to help even thought you're so experienced! =)
Not only are you amazing for putting this massive project out, but you also actually helped the korok! Wow.
Haha! What else would you be doing to the korok?
@@100PercentZelda definitely probably not sent him to space or anything.
I’m feeling proud of myself - I figured out a lot of these on my own! 👏🤓 The one I like the most that I didn’t know, and that made me laugh, is the fused rocks to solve korok rock puzzles 😜
Nice!
It’s the things I don’t pay attention to, I swear I never saw select recipe and I’ve been playing this game for 200 hours or something
Haha! I get it! Some people are telling me somethings are obvious... and I haven't even seen them myself
This was so helpful! Also made me feel like I have been playing this game wrong 😂. Thank you for making this!
Thank you! And you're so welcome! =)
can't wait for you to start posting item farming videos in tears of the kingdom
That's the plan for the future!
I liked that tip that said you can break apart zonai devices by shaking the controller! It really helped me for one of my upcoming videos!
It's a simple one, but I like to use it
try using the star fragment staff in the depths, its especially useful to see if there is ground underneath you when its too dark all you have to do is a downward attack.
haha yes I've been told. Thank you!
I'd rather use bright bloom seeds. Keep the star fragments for armor upgrades.
Taluses and Lynels just got a whole lot less scary xD
Gleeoks still terrify me though 😅
Haha they sure did
Another proof that I’m not creative at all 😄 Luckily, learning tips and tricks this way doesn’t take away the fun for me 😋
Haha thats how we learn!
You can also use Sidon's water protection to cool yourself down.
That's a good one!
At least Nico does not just state things the game tells you like the other 500 you didn't know this about totk. 💯 Thank you nico. ❤️
Haha I tried!
Yes there was, but it was still a good list.
I have been playing since the release and I still discover new things. A lot of them are koroks and caves but also fighting styles. Love it
You can sneak up on a Bokoblin carrying materials on those backpack crates thing and steal their materials without having to engage them in a fight.
That's a good one too!
3:16 Actually, star fragment balls of light DO do something; they kill stal- type enemies instantly, so long as it's not a boss (eg. Stalnox). Same with Dazzlefruits!
Great tips! I learned many new things, thank you!
thanks! happy help!
Amazing compilation of tips and tricks. In the entire video, I only saw two tips that used reloading to game the system. Other than those, all tips were legit knowledge and expertise. Again, amazing overall. Must have taken a long time to put this together. It was great to watch. Thanks.
Great video. Already knew the majority but the few tips I didn’t know are definitely gonna be a big help. Especially the trick with moving material to the front of most used.
I’ll give my own tip like every one else seems to be doing even tho it’s probably basic by now lol but I’m at the point where I’m just going around looking for the last hundred or so koroks so some times running into mobs can be quite annoying. Especially multiple silver enemies. I make sure to keep a flurry rushed enhanced ice weapon (I like the halberds for this personally but the result isn’t much different for other types) and it destroys any silver monster in I wanna say 3 hits. Could be more hits than that, but it’s definitely no more than 5. As for the fusion material I usually use the ice gleeok horn so the effect stays on. Pristine Flurry Rush weapon + Ice Gleeok Horn is one of my fav fusions.
Thanks!
I actually learned the Octorok Balloon trick while fighting the Mucktoroks in the Depths as it gave me enough height to enter Bullet Time and hit the Mucktorok with a Multi Shot Bow for extra damage plus Mucktoroks drop a lot of Octorok Balloons after they've been defeated so it was easier to fuse them to my shields and use them instead of rockets also Constructs can't swim either
Haha you must have been like "what?! That's cool!"
If you have multiple crates to break, fuse them together and then lift and drop. It's faster than one by one.
You can also drop one on the other to break them too.
thats smart!
Plus, breaking crates drops way more arrows (even bundles of arrows) than it did back in BotW. In BotW I was always somewhat close to running out of arrows. But now I rarely drop below 200.
@@lonestarr1490 yes! In BOTW breaking pots and crates was pretty much a waste of time. Not anymore
The best one I got from this was to use recall on the talus and also the muddlebuds bucking them off it's back
It's my favorite! So funny!
Great and helpful video, and the fact that you even take the time to respond to every single comment on it is pretty amazing.
I try my best! And thank you so so much
27:00 "Wet yourself" is an idiom in English for something else. Though I suppose that Link might do this the first time he meets a King Gleeok.
When I'm scared I feel like I'll wet myself
The balls of light from the starpiece-weapon can help in the dephts because they do light up a big area.
Thanks! I have to try it out
Np
7:41 Horriblins also cannot swim. Stunning them with a dazzlefruit can cause them to fall into water below and drown.
That's a great one!
@@100PercentZelda Thanks, and you're welcome!
24:43 OMG TY SO FREAKING MUCH
You're welcome! =)
Thank you for all the amazingly helpful tips. I’ve recently got back into the game after a break, so I came across this video at the perfect time. Have a great day!
@@TH-came-nd4je you're very welcome! You have a great day too!
About number 101, flicking the joystick can cause major joycon drift, so be careful. I always shake the joycins.
That's a good point. I like to shake too
I didn’t know this and now my joy cons constantly drift BADLY. It’s a good thing I’m always moving so it doesn’t really bother me a whole lot
Hey, thanks to nr 150, after a long time trying I finally got to mount the glider in the air!!!! Also there are a bunch of things I did not know yet. Great job with this video.
Thanks so much! Happy to help!
someone send this to arin hanson 😭
Who's that?
late, but hes apart of the game grumps channel and is fairly known for being bad at video games, specifically zelda games
If you use amiibo only to get certain things, do a hard save, use the amiibo and see what you get, if it’s not what you want then simply reload the game.
Fixing champion weapons and bow is easy, just fuse them to a shield and let the octorock have a go at it, then both shield and weapon/bow is as good as new. Also, if I stumble on a weapon I might want but there’s no room in my inventory I just fuse it to a shield for safe keeping.
These are great! Thanks! =)
Weapons don’t break when mounted on a Lynel, so you can attack them with almost broken weapons without breaking them
this is actually a great one!
What is a Lynel?
@@marcusflores693 Its an enemy in Zelda ToTK. Seems like youre new to the game. You'll understand when you see ,have fun
"These balls of light do nothing! You're welcome!" Best line from an epic video. Great job, Nikko!
Haha it would be... but I was wrong...
this is why nico is the zelda GOAT
🥰🥰🥰

Bonus tip for the cart-shield fusion. You can grind on rails with any shield, as long as it isn't fused with something that would normally hinder shield surfing like a gem or a fruit.
Me reading the title : My life is easier with a PHD in Zelda TOTK😂
I had to look up a lot of stuff
I love using recall on a rock octorok to find where the weapon is as well as halting their momentum.
sounds fun!
You can trigger a blood moon anytime by shooting opals with multi shot bows at breakable rocks in caves.
Also, a panic blood moon will automatically occur if you visit any of the main towns before the first blood moon. This blood moon comes out of nowhere and is scary, but it is a good early game tip for farming zonaite
Thanks!
I thought this was going to be boring rehash of things I already knew but was pleasantly surprised .lots of cool stuff here. Nice job.
Yay! I'm glad
