Anything else in particular you'd like me to go over/give tips on?
Yoooo! You should talk about the depths!
Hi
Make a series of videos covering everything in every region. excluding koroks
volcano depths of death mountain probably
giving octorocks weapons repairs and buffs them for 1 weapon per octorok (Bows, Shields, Weapons)
Me, who just 100% my second playthrough: interesting ✍🏼
Bro hasn’t seen the sun in months 😂😂
Me who 99.98% my play through
How do you know if it’s a 100% playthrough?
@@Todoza cuz it says what percent you have done on the map
@@Todoza you have to finish the main story first.
I loved how multiple minutes of the video were "do what the game tells you"
As someone who didn't do what the game told me at the start and really suffered without the paraglider for the first like, 15-ish hours of gameplay, this truly is useful advice in this case. I definitely ended up wishing that I had just followed the main quest line in the first place instead of being all "Ring ruins and Kakariko village? Yeah, that sounds important and surely the Kakariko gang has meaningful progress." I blame all the NPCs in the initial landing area focusing on it despite that NOT being the most productive way to go at first. They really should have been playing up Lookout Landing more instead.
@@AlloveckThis was literally my exact experience😅. I ended up so annoyed and confused. Then I would go try to do shrines and end up leaving them unfinished because I needed the paraglider 🤦♀️
I literally had no idea the refinery near Lookout Landing even existed because I never thought to climb up that fallen sky island chunk. I used the refinery outside the Recall shrine on the Great Sky Island for almost all my energy upgrades, and even after I found out about the one near Lookout Landing, I still usually used the one in the sky because it was closer to a fast travel point. "Nobody cares about that one" my behind!
lol, literally. thanks! 😆
Me too!
Sounds like a classic case of Stockholm syndrome to me lol
Hehe I came here for the same comment. Why would I scramble up that ol’ rock every time outside?? 😅
2:30 " you shoudnt explore without the paraglider" bruh i went to see Sidon immediately, with the rocky terrain of Zoras Domain just to see he was engaged to a frog 💀
Salty
Good
same lol I was somewhere in the vicinity of 20-30 hours before I went to grab it
sidon simps are something else
I went through *several* shrines that were clearly intended for the paraglider to be present with some stubbornness, determination, and cheese. I am staggered that it is somehow not a mandatory pickup on the way down considering how hard it is to do the rest of the game without it.
One tip, for the hoverbike, throw a giant bright bloom seed on it. It's just a better flashlight.
Don't forget that it drastically extends the despanw area of the whole build. It feels like it never despowns. Kleric did an excellent video on it
It is also almost no weight to it, so it's easier to steer the bike. :)
i think this could be better called "10 minutes of useful info for early game" since a lot goes into basic stuff like following the game's suggestions like going to talk with purah, in case you didn't know, a LOT of npcs tell you to go talk with purah if you haven't done it, i played a playthroufht without a glider and it waas really fun and interesting how the game itself aknoledges your lack of paraglider in many ways
a tip i would give is stuff like fusing frozen meat to your shield makes your shield really slippery so its perfect for shield surfing or also fusing a fire stonetalus heart or dinraal part to your shield, these are a two of the most versatile things to fuse with your shield since lets you brake stones, kill small talus, is basically a perfect fire starter and it also helps you in combat letting you attack and burn your enemies,
another tip would be to use and brake every weapon you find since when you brake a weapon at least once it will appear its clean version in the depths
and my last tip is that, play however you want, take your time to explore everything that seems interesting to you, this game has no right answers, so be free to be as creative as you want
Thanks! I've took your tips and added them to my google doc as I script out the next video(s). The reason this first one covered a lot of early game beginner stuff is mostly bc my niece got stuck after leaving GSI, so I wanted to help her out. As the practical info series goes on, I'd like to make more intermediate and expert tips. sorta like how iceberg videos get more and more deep with the info they put out
The weapon spark color fact, I would've never guessed it has any meaning!
Seems kinda counterintuitive that blue sparks are both the color of total weapon destruction AND the color of hits that do no durability damage at all though.
On my first playtrough, i was suprised at first that i didnt get a paraglider from the great aky island. So just went onto the rito (the massive tornado looked really cool ok). And once i got to the trail leading up to the dungeon i started accually wondering where the paraglider was. I accually did get decently far towards the dungeon.
9:42 Adding to this, the best way to farm crystallized charges in my experience (aside from the one-time drops such as from re-fighting bosses) is from killing the lynels in the floating colosseum. Each of the 5 lynels drop 20 crystallized charges, giving you 100 per run (300 zonaite worth!) on top of the monster parts and lynel weapons.
I didn't even know that a second crystal refinery existed! I always use the Great Sky Island one.
5:50 is awesome! I haven't seen a wing deploy without recall shenanigans or some tricky timing with a running start.
I spent at least 10 hours fooling around Hyrule after the Great Sky island, not even noticing I never got the paraglider. There were just so many ways to ascend and fall safely, like stopping a tree log midair, grabbing onto it and let it fall, or even making a small rock platform and using it like an elevator. But of course it was a hassle to build those things all the time, so I had to go out looking for the glider XD.
i beat a paragliderless run recently, it is quite a challenge! Have fun exploring and experiencing this game! :3
@@Vitabyte I already did, at least 400 hours of it XD! In the first quarter of it, there was a sense of "survival" that quite be replicated now that I know how to make the best stuff. That's the only flaw I fond with botw and totk really: you can only experience them wholy once, after that, you just skip the time consuming bits.
After you max out your Zonite battery cells, the Constructs that operates the crystal charge refineries will make Zonai devices for you in exchange for crystal charges. You can pick specific Zonai devices. No more having to use Zonai dispensers.
Wow that’s cool. Thanks for sharing.
If you want a more foolproof way of getting on your wings, use ultrahand to chart a course, then bring the wing back on land and drop it on the ground. Stand on the wing, and use recall to bring it back over the edge. Then cancel recall while in the air. You can gain extra starting hight for your glides with this as well.
At 5:37 that method of wing launch works, but an easier way is to suspend the wing or over the ledge, then bring it back. Stand on it, and recall.
I was thinking the same! His way gave me anxiety lol
sounds like a good addendum I could use for the next video. I need to learn more easy recall hacks like that. I got my method from what I learned speedrunning.
Pro tip for the crates, you can drop one on top of the other to break them both at once!
To make jumping on a dropped Wing easier, you can simply use Recall on it
That does sound like a good tip. Might have to play with that and see if it's good enough to make it into the 20 minute video, thanks!
Before i got any carts i just did this, it was pretty useful early game
You don't need to beat kohga to access the refineries. At all times, until you beat kohga for the last time under rito village, one refinery will be inaccessible because kohga is there. First it's that one, but after you beat him he moves to another one, etc. I prefer to not fight him at all, and just use other refineries. The rito one is easiest, if you know where the entrance is. 😅
Wait, at 5:06 you ran past some free wings to go get some wings. Granted it's good to have the inventory wings too, but you should just glide from that spot right there using the free ones.
lol yeah I was talking about inventory wings, but now that you mention it, you probably could glide one of those and curve it to the left to get to that sky island too.
The impracitcal videos I enjoy more to be honest. Looking forward to more of those! :D
next useless video will be the 60 minute version. coming soon
@@TheTonyExpress Any chance you can break it down into two 30 mins videos? I love your videos but 1 hour will be too long… I would love to finish one video before I have to tend to my daughter 😂
4:51 There is a tower in central hyrule that when launch from is a short glide to that island for fairies. I always stop at an island with food surround by floating derby.
The first thing I did after landing on the surface was beeline for hateno village to see if I got to keep my house, so I didn't get the paraglider for my first 2-3 hours of playtime after the Great Sky Island
At 10:00 you buy Crystallized Charges with regular (not large) Zonaite. I'd suggest nobody ever does this as regular Zonaite is too valuable for constructing items with Autobuild. Get Charges from Large Zonaite, Yiga hideouts, and Depths boss battles!
Don’t usually catch these this early!
Unironically ended up being even more useless because I knew almost everything. I love the random useless detail videos because it's really fun to see the hidden attention to detail or secrets in these games.
5:20 _"Taking the three fish and the five loaves He gave thanks and broke the loaves-"_ *KRASH*
I have 4 more useful tips
While in midair, you can either press up, select an item, then press X to drop it or pause the game, hold the item/-s in your hands, unpause and Link will automatically trop them. That is helpful while dropping in a Chasm. Throwing a brightbloom seed will light up the ground alerting you about the distance and the immediate surroundings. It's also useful if you want to drop a ton of bombs on enemies.
Every single cave has a hidden bubble frog (100 on surface and 1 in Great Sky Island). Even if they start as a well. No matter how small they look like. If you have a cave marker on your map, there is 100% a bubble frog in it. The cool thing is that, if you collect the bubble gem, the cave will get a check mark on your map, making it clear.
Loard of the mountain, now called Satori, can be found under every cherry blossom tree. Offering a fruit of any kind will summon him. He will reveal every cave entrance in the surrounding area. Using a hover, bike you can fly over the land and pin them on your map with the scope.
Koltin, the brother of Kilton from BOTW, is obsessed with Bubble gems. After giving him plenty and getting every item he offers, you can ask him if he can sense any bubble frogs in the area giving you vague directions.
In the beginning of the game when it came out I thought why is rauru’s are not in key items and now I realize why, it is incredibly weird to have a arm not only your arm somebody else’s arm
Just love all your content
Mind blowing! And I thought I were an expert!
Great video as always
I personally use autobuild to levitate crates instead of ultrahand, cancelling construction to drop them in higher quantities. You can glue a ton of crates together at the Gerudo Canyon Stable to save a build but that quantity is unnecessary
Yoooo it's actually practical now www! Thanksssss
At 6:55 autobuild for apples works, but wastes am autobuild slot. Bring any axe, and chop down trees instead. Plus you're going to fight an evermean or two, so you want an axe anyway, and you get wood.
Have you tried the auto build way though? It’s 1000 times more efficient than using an axe.
My autobuild includes:
10 apples,
4 golden apples,
2 acorns,
2 pinecone,
And 3 of those tall dead Hebra pine trees for reach. I don't have to even go into the forest if i don't want to. I can just fish them out.
Using an ice rod is even faster. It drops every item that it touches. I personally use autobuild cause fan, but fastest way is an ice rod. You can even buy the rod after a certain story boss
Good to know good to know
I stopped trading Zonaite and Large Zonaite for Crystalized Charges because they’re needed to upgrade armor, and you can get 20 Crystalized Charges from fighting the mini bosses throughout the Depths, and these reappear after every blood moon. The mini bosses under Lookout Landing are basic ones that don’t scale up as you get experience (simple Hinox, Frox, Stone Talus, etc.) so you can essentially farm them for Crystalized Charges. If you learn to fight Lynels, you can do the Floating Coliseum for 100 Crystalized Charges every blood moon. (I leave a travel medallion there to get there quickly.)
That's some great info for the next video, thanks!
Woah! Caught this one early!
imo the best way to farm food is to get the tomatoes on the west side of baltrea lake.. this is across the river from riverside sable.. the shrine near this stable is the 1st stop i always make after leaving GSI... as you go south from the stable and across the bridge and through the woods near baltrea lake you can gather 50 tomatoes not to mention ironshroom, stamella, silentshroom, and at least 2 easy koroks that i know of
Thanks for the info! I'll add this to my google doc for scripting more practical info vids.
There are three fairies in the well at Outskirt stable.
I wish i could post pictures or something, I came up with a design for an automatic fishing device, very cheap all things considered, all you have to do once you build it is float around a body of water and drive into the fish to catch them on the devices "net"
Its super worth building cause it can net you a ton of fish really quickly without having to yeet shock lemons and swim out to pick the fish up, especially useful for Porgy as they tend to spawn in very large schools far out into the ocean and you can stock up on some of the best ingredients for offence and defence buffs quickly. Just wish Nintendo had given us a less psychotic way to go fishing.
I've been trying to iterate on the design since I first built it but most tweaks tend to hurt its speed, maneuverability, or net area.
sounds cool. i'd love to include something unique like that in one of the next videos. if you could try to explain/describe how to build it here, i'd appreciate it. if you have discord, you can also share a pic in my server if that's easier discord.gg/XbcRptrc
Personally I like to kill those bosses in the depths they give anywhere from 20 to 100 crystalized zonite i think idk its been a hot second since my 100% playthrough
Main story bosses, master kohga and I think king Gleeok give you 100 but only the first fight. Frox definitely every time give something like 20 so I guess Hinox and Talus too
Yo it’s a super surprise Tony vid!
At 8:26 whenever you build a vehicle in the depths, throw a giant bright bloom onto it. Which will turn it on, so be ready to grab it quickly. Or just attach the bright bloom to one of the parts before assembling it.
Ideally, throw the brightbloom on, which will activate it, then use recall on it and hit it while it's stuck in recall.
I've been doing the ultrahand-boxes thing since they were magnesis boxes in botw, I always thought I was just being insanely frugal
fyi, on the auto build apple bundle, make sure to combine reg apples with a gold apple or 2 so it will grab both kinds
Hoverbikes aren't infinite, the fans do eventually disappear.
It takes half an hour of cumulative use, which is long enough that it's only going to happen on very extended trips if you studiously avoid despawning it, but short enough that it's a plausible concern. If you're using a real steering stick (rather than an autobuild-summoned one), simply bee-line for the nearest stash of Zonai devices and rebuild it with the fans that are bound to be there. If the steering stick is summoned, you'll probably have to pay three zonaite to re-summon it, but you can still use the fans. In fact, if you're using a real steering stick, I suggest stopping by device stashes to replace the fans every now and then on extended trips just so you don't get caught out. If you're not... well, it's not like zonaite is expensive.
wow really? half hour of cumulative use, dang. good to know though, thanks!
@@TheTonyExpress This applies to the majority of Zonai devices that have an on state. The majority of "passive" devices, such as steering sticks and sleds, have no duration, and a minority of devices, such as wings, balloons, and rockets, have a significantly shorter duration. All are based on cumulative use time, except for the cannon, which only uses durability when it fires, but still lasts 30 minutes if firing constantly.
This is great to fall asleep to
lol just wait til I get to finishing the hour-long version ;)
If your attack doesn't do any damage to the thing you're hitting it doesn't use up durability, also if you have a fragile material and do a ground slam while you have full weapon durability, it won't damage the weapon
Blue sparks not consuming durability is odd, since I'm fairly certain this wasn't true in BotW. Unless smacking a chest emits orange sparks, and I'm just remembering wrong.
Yeah I’m pretty sure cutting grass consumes durability now too-or maybe it just does to a certain point? I had a new weapon eventually warn me about durability when I was looking for Hylian rice once.
In botw blue sparks in most cases still ate durability (chests, small rocks etc)
hmm, i tested it on grass. not only did my weapon stay new with that sparkle, but grass and shrubs didn't even make the blue spark. could it have been that you were slamming the weapon? slamming on the ground uses a durability hit.
Yeah, I don't think grass consumes durability normally. Hitting chests definitely does, though...
You don't actualky have to do the lookout landing tower first! As long as Purah turned on the towers, you can go to any other tower.
Taking a moment to bang my dab pen and check a shrine and well... I’ll just watch this for a sec
for the apple orchard, I did 20 apples and 1 golden, felt it was faster.
That's a smart idea. saves on an autobuild favorite slot too, thanks
“information that is actually worth remembering” i am going to forget much of it anyway and That Is My Promise™
wow he did something useful
Don’t use zonaite to buy charges. Just knock out mini bosses and get 20 charges per kill. Super easy.
Thanks
Thank YOU! Much appreciated!
You're very welcome, thank you for your videos. @@TheTonyExpress
this isn't the content i subscribe to
Still amazing tho great video evil tony express (:
Fans and steering sticks do expire just after like 30 mins
I did 40 shrines once I got off The Grr Sky Island with no paraglider
no mention of the matching of shrines and lightroots?
i've got a lot of depths material, including this in the script for the next practical video(s). just didnt have time to squeeze it into the 10 minute one
I did make that hover bike thing but uh...I got it to where I am flying backwards lol
lol wut? did you build it reversed?
@@TheTonyExpress I think I have the fans facing backwards or the stick
Ayee let’s gooo
9:43 what in the.
it's literally faster to get to the one on GSI than the one near lookout landing.
When first playing TOTK did anyone else keep throwing themselves off cliffs and other surfaces out of habit from BOTW? I died or voided out many times from doing this on the GSI.. 🤦♀️
PRACTICAL? WHAT?!
The timeline has changed
In 6:21 you forgot "if you don't have Tulin"
!
Ha yeah, this first video of the series assumes you're in the beginning stages of the game, but that would have been good to include in my script regardless. Thanks!
Just found out I can get more batteries..
At 9:40, you're just plain wrong. The crystal refinery on the Great Sky Island is much quicker to get to from its warp point than the lookout landing one is. Convenient!
True, but if you're doing other stuff at Lookout Landing (or if you want to buy Zonai devices at both of them once you've fully upgraded your battery), having the other one is good too.
lol a few fans of the sky island refinery have spoken. I stand corrected. I might have to try it, since the warp point is a little closer than the lookout landing one.
10 mins and 50 seconds 🗿
I think 95% of players knew all of these except the first one
Practical information?!? Don't know if it'll catch on! 🤣
No one asked for information that we will actually use while playing the game! We want shit with literally no use in the game!
But I won't complain if you bring more of such useful content.
Oh wow I’m early
You are twenty for minutes late… no
Lookout Landing does not need to be your first tower.
Not sure why you just described the beginning of the game to us for 3 minutes, but alrighty lol
lol, the truth is that my niece got stuck after finishing the GSI, so I made that bit to help her.
@@TheTonyExpress Oh gotchya. Shout out to her 😭
It's too practical... Now I feel like I actually would be good at the game.
So there's a very weird thing in this game that my dad discovered actually, and i haven't seen no one online talking about it.
You know those big wooden boxes right, as mentioned in the video, whenever you break them they always have one or a couple of arrows inside, but that only happens if you actually break the boxes, if you instead burn them then they'll have a roasted apple instead, ive tried this multiple times and it really seems like that is an actual thing! Break boxes for arrows and burn them for roasted apples
I believe youre right. in my experience, i've noticed more food when burned, and very rarely get food when i break them. 'll look into this and do my own testing, and add it to the script for one of the next practical videos if I notice the same results, thanks!
The game should really tell you that blue sparks don't use durability. So many BOTW players will be worried about it while having no clue
I would suggest not breaking crates like that because your time is more valuable than any weapon.
2:40 I disagree strongly. With all the movement options provided by Zonai devices, I find TotK more enjoyable without the paraglider in my inventory.
Actually 10:50
You wanna know a better thing to know about this? Don't make the hover bike, specially if its your first playthrough. Just don't, you're Skipping on so much the game wants you to discover on your own by doing so.
Zelda is the last game where you need guidance from anything except the actual tutorial. If you haven't played the game yet and still managed to see this comment before finishing the video, stop it now, go play it blind. It's so much more fun this way.
I did all these things in the first three days of having the game
"10 mins of practical information"
2 of them is giving you an early game tutorial.
Come on man, everyone knows you have to go lookout landing and get the paraglider first.
THIS IS ILLEGAL!
I really wish i watched this earlier
I just want to know one thing. how have I still not beaten all of the breath of the wild shrines, but I got all the bubbel gems, all the light roots and beat all the shrines in like 2 months in totk
