> nb4 people point out things I missed. Seriously though, I am considering following this up with a Part 2 with more info on breeds, locations, horse gear, etc! And thank you for 200 subs! Holy mole. I was planning on making a 100 sub special, but before I could I hit 200! I'll be making a video on that soon. Thanks! (P.S. I said NPC this time- happy?)
Can you make a video about all the different colors and pattern about the horses out there. I want to know, how many different colors are out there. No, i haven't the game yet.
You've completely left out any info on training which is actually seperate from bonding. I came to realize this because the steering is so crappy on untrained horses. My first horse was spotted and while easy to ride and rarely acting up between the time I caught it and the time I got to a stable the steering was horrid. I registered it and it was at 100% bond. I was so disheartened because I had heard that the steering was bad but that it would get better with the bond. It hadn't and this horse had no more room to grow. An npc mentioned training by soothing when a horse does what you ask. I started doing that. My horse improved rapidly until my steering was flawless. My second horse I started training immediately. As soon as I caught her before I headed for a stable I ran figure 8s with her and rewarded correct turns. I threw in a few stops to tune the breaks. As soon as I had perfect response which was in about 5 minutes I took her and registered her. She was only at 64% bond. I've trained yet another horse recently same routine when I got him to the stable he was at 49I started soothing them in combat when they do what I ask and they're starting to obey me in that situation as well. So training them in combat may even be a seperate thing as well but I haven't seen enough evidence to say that is 100% true. It still may be something I'm doing differently in combat while riding. Time will tell. Try these things out for yourself and see if you get the same results. If you do you might want to add them to part 2.
You can add feeding your horse certain things in part two! I discovered by luck feeding my horse an endura carrot adds three extra spurs, that disappear once used. Helpful for emergencies!
Fun fact: if you wanna get the best stat horses in the game, go southwest of Serenne stable and you’ll see the “Upland Lindor” cliff. That spot has the strongest and fastest horses
Jesus Salazar all horses have a walk and then a sort of trot thats what the giant horse has. the trot. its not until horses dash when they use stamina. id say the lord of the mountain is a horse with "unlimited stamina" because that mounts stamina literally does not deplete no matter how many times you spam.
No what he has when "Running/full speed" is more like a canter. Trot if you're barely moving the analog (or what ever) where as the others have a full on "Gallop" it's weird cuz gallop sounds more "prissy" and "Fancy" like a trot, making you think it would be canter that's the full run xD (used to confuse me as a kid) but nope lol. (i think it says gallop in there somewhere? but canter is after a trot and before a gallop, if you know anything about horse stuff - #owned and rode/trainedwith horses for a part of his life- lmao. but yeah they say unlimited cuz he can "Canter" for pretty much infinite. While the other horses get a gallop that tends to run down. Thing is, he doesn't ever go any faster so no need to "Spam" the dash button.
Except to rage - and if you don't understand the differences , Trot is slower , close to a fancy or "gaited" walk but not quite, almost like a small jog to humans. They bounce and "prance around" in a certain manner. (if you ever watched spirit he's basically trotting when he's snooting and showing off during the coral scene) A canter is a "Light run" that sorta feels like a water or flag what ever slowly flowing along like ~~ so, and you almost don't move. very weird feeling your first time especially if you've always been stuck on short and bouncey rides (horses) then bumped up to tall and cozy / not so boncey rides. And gallop is just full on speed that makes the wind smack hard into your face like it's solid rock. If you're light weight it feels like the wind will pick you up from under saddle and you'll float off the horses back lmao. Horses Legs all out stretched in long strong quick strides full power force and speed!! :'D good times.
i remember when i first found a stalwart. i sniped the rider, then mounted it, then started heading for a stable (not knowing it couldn’t be boarded or it would die when the sun rose) on the way i named it Spoopy and took pics of it on my phone, and just a little ways away from the rearest stable, the sun rose. And Spoopy, stopped in his tracks, bucked me off, and died... needless to say, it was pretty soul crushing... RIP Spoopy, you will be missed.
and either way, if you pay attention to the memories, the cutscene where Zelda is recounting link's advice "be sure to take the time to soothe your mount. that is the only way *he* will know how you truly feel." ******he******
@@babyykawa_9847 grandchild of zelda..... Could be male or female. Grandchild is non gendered, and there is no lore I am aware of that says Zelda could only have children of one sex or the other. What I am saying, is you are wrong lol.
The horse with the best stats is actually NOT Epona or Zelda's horse. It's a wild black horse located near the giant horse with 5-4-5 stats. Edit : for those wondering where it could be, you can find it in the Taobab Grasslands (between Gerudo and the Great Plateau). It's one of the normal horses surrrounding the huge one. Also mb it only has 4-4-5 (still better than Epona and Zelda's). Hope it helped !
Ganondorf horse has zero stamina. Not infinite. That thing couldn't catch up to the running man in ocarina of time. Also zelda's horse can be caught without initiating the side quest. There are multiple quests you can complete without imitating. For instance I got her horse randomly. Then came across that old man and he wanted to see it. So I sat on zelda's horse and showed him automatically completing the quest without initiating it from him. I was hoping you'd show a horse with 5 stats in speed. I had a horse with 5 stars but I got rid of it because the rest of the stats sucked and now I can't find another one like it.
you do a good job with your videos. Informative, focused, on point, good editing, not to serious, keeps your attention and is easy to follow and understand. Thank you for your efforts and work. You have earned a sub and a thumbs up
Good video ^^ The only two things that could have been said different is Epona and Ganon's horse. Epona isn't a random drop with the amiibo, you get her with the first tap of that amiibo, then you can't respawn her with it unless you make a new game. Ganon's horse, as Ive actually seen a few people say in the comments, doesnt have unlimited stam, it just has none. Good strong horse, but not much of a traveler :(
You can also find Link's horse in the game (the one Link rides in the memories and in the final fight against Ganon if you never registered a horse). It can be found in numerous locations across Hyrule. I know for a fact that it is a unique horse because it alway has the same stats. I can't remember all the locations where you can find him, but one of them is Giant's Forest. If you can't find him try reloading your save once or twice until he appears.
Not all dark brown horses with black mane and tail + white ankles (how "Link's Horse" looks like) have good stats. I recently tamed one with 3-star stamina and 2-star speed. And later replaced it with identically colored one with better stats
The giant horse, as others have pointed out, doesn’t have unlimited stamina. It can’t dash like a normal horse, but it has no stamina meter so you can use tell it go faster as much as you want. While it takes longer for the horse to reach top speed than other horses, its size means its running animation covers more distance so it is faster than its stats imply.
Giant horse has no stamina, not infinite! Also I've found and caught random wild horses with better stats than the white stallion over in the taobab plains
Same!!! I mean, just about anybody who knows a thing or two about horses could tell you it's called walking, trotting, cantering and galloping, not running.
I know that you can't really catch Epona without the amiibo, but I was so proud of myself when I found a horse with similar looks and stats. The speed was 3 stars, and I think it was a little smaller as well as not having the extra fur around the hoof area. It also had a wild temperament.
I have Zelda's Horse, and all others have excellent stats. For best horses, go to the Upland Lindor, SSW of Serenne stable. Be sure to jump off the hill to the left, float down onto a horse for best results. Horses in that area are quite skittish. Good stealth doesn't entirely help you there.
nice editing! the only tiny nitpick i have is that technically the horses have four gaits if you include the speed after spurring - walk, trot, canter, and gallop xD but aside from that wow this was really extensive and super helpful!! Thanks so much for making this lord knows i need it
I had 6 horses Spot, who had 2 stars on everything Good horse, who had one more stamina Bob, who was my best horse at the time Zeldas horse Power boy who had 4non strength and speed but 5 stamina And speedy who had 5 star speed and was blue
@@carmeline.l8136 there's a mission where u could give someone a horse, which could be a registered horse. If you have 5 horses and try to register another one, you could choose a horse to release
@@tripled2505 When you tame 6th horse and ride it to stable, the stable person let's you release one of your horses back into the wild. So you aren't stuck with the same 5 horses
OMG this is the best horse guide in the game I got two horses that are better than Epona (I Have Epona) and I got the super fast horse thank you soooo much for your amazing guide and u just earned ur self a subscriber
If anyone wants to know a good area to find horses, the field between twin peaks and fort hateno has three spawns and there's a fourth spawn hiding in the trees along the river bank. I've found horses that rivaled Epona before. Sadly those horses have passed or were released for the white and giant horses
Wrong. The best place to find horses is the Upland Lindor. 2 spawns that also spawn the best horses in the game, statwise. They also have 2 stables nearby, unlike Taobab Grassland which makes you go through several horse riding Bokoblin archers and 2 Lynels.
When I did my second gameplay ('cause the first one didn't turned out so wellXD) I made energy potions when I got to leave the Great Plateau. This time, I wanted to pick the best horse I could found in the first group I'd see. I prefer black horses, because that is my fav color horse in real life and gameplay:) And because I knew the black horses in Breath of the Wild are most likely one of the better horses. I was lucky: the first time I saw a group horses there was a pretty black one. It had only a little white on it's feet and a small white stripe on it's head, that you can't see good through it's manes. SO PERFECT! I tamed it and I was surprised: it had four stamina, which is the best exept for the royal white stallion and Epona. I was really happy! I registered it and called it Magic. I still enjoy rides with him:)
The best solid coloured horses are the ones that lead the herd, generally followed by the other horses. It's how I got my favourite horse :') I love it soo much
I have a herd leader solid colored one and he has 1 star strength, 3 star speed and 4 star stamina… those are horrendous, and I named him whit of all names
I tried registering the bear I found. It was an... interesting conversation. I wish you could mount the bulls, rhinos, and moose you find... Link on a moose.... Best. mount. ever.
An easy way I found to mount a horse without sneaking up on it or using an elixir, Get to a high place near the horse of your choice ,tree ,hill ,rock you name it and hand glide your way right on top of Its back and you'll automatically be mounting it. It's a great cheet😉 (don't try to glide to the side if the horse ,unless your in the mood for a swift kick in the ribs)
If you don't want to waste your money on an amiibo for Epona, there are horses that do look like her. Caught a 4 str, 4 spd, 5 sta Epona look-a-like at the Giant Horse location. There is only one difference though, her brown tint is SLIGHTLY darker compared to the Epona amiibo, that's it. I generally like Nintendo, but really, fuck amiibos :)
Rien van Zevenbergen amiibos are great actually its like mini toys that you can use in most of there games to get bonuses. i normally get zelda ones because i love how they look but i use them daily for BOTW
I have the worst luck with this game, everything kills me in one hit, and no matter what I try to do the game stops me. Try to open towers well everyone is guarded by some ungodly powerful enemies…then last night before I went to sleep I see some horses and I figure let’s see how hard this is going to be and somehow jumped on one first try and tamed it right away and took it to a stable lol maybe my luck’s improving because I kept hearing how hard it was and I got it almost by accident lol
If anyone's wondering, 'Epona' from all of the trailers and box art is available in the game (duh) and can be found in the wild. I caught them and equipped them with the traveller's kit from the amiibo, so now, along with all of the right gear and weapons, I have the things to look just like link from the trailers :)
It's in the horse spawn list, I'm sure. You can look up all the horse spawns or just check by stables every now and then. I'm not sure when the horses reset but you'll know when you see it. It's got a very distinctive chocolate colour, white hair on its feet and a white patch by the head. I saw two of them, so I guess I got lucky.
Extra tips: - Boosting trust: Feeding your horse apples will boost it's trust. As soon as you catch one just keep pulling out apples until it stops eating them to get 100% trust. - Ancient Bridle/Saddle: An item from the DLC, once found and placed on a horse it will make the horse warp to any location you are it when you whistle. It also will add 2 extra stamina slots to any horse. - Catching Horses Easy: Sneak up near a horse then shoot it with an ice arrow. It will freeze the horse allowing you to run up behind it. Crouch down and spam the mount button until it unfreezes. You'll instantly jump on the horse. - Extra Stamina: If you feed your horse an endura carrot it will gain 3 extra stamina slots. They will not regenerate once used.
If only there was a quest to get Epona instead of using an amiibo. The quest would probably be named "The quest for Epona" or "Link's horse" or something like that
One difference between gentle and wild horses that I've noticed is that if you press A again after running out of stamina, the wild ones will throw you off.
for taming horses with the "wild" temperament, if you just mash the L button to soothe them with the palm of your hand, you can tame that horse easily (I'm not talking about the bond.). It's almost guaranteed that the horse won't be able to kick you off, even if you have the lowest stamina (and a fast arm). (for both wii u and switch)
I recently tamed my first horse, a low-level spotty one. It's almost as if he had seen tamed horses passing by on the road and was like "that is what I want in my life."
Well, I have a good working method, but it's kind of "motherfucker" method. Use an shocking arrow on the horse, go right behind me, and when his shock is over, ride him. That's how I nearly got all my horses :3 (they still love me tho :P)
I just started playing botw and i got ganon horse without knowing what it was before seeing this video! While trying to catch it i was just like: this horse looks cool and difficult to soothe must be good. And didn't even realize it was lager than any other horse i thought i was passing by baby horses while riding lmao
You do know you can find those horses again right? I tracked the same exact horse for 4 days! I was busy doing the dungeons while paying attention to where I found it, then when i got the chance tamed it and made my on Epona.
I find it really stupid that some of the coolest content in the game is locked behind amiibo. The ones for breath of the wild (from what I've seen) only give you items that at one point or another, you can get in game, but all the Smash amiibo and 30th anniversary amiibo actually give you cool items. The 30 anniversary amiibo are all sold out here in Canada from what I can see, and the smash amiibos are pretty hard to find. All we've got up here are those crappy animal crossing amiibo that do jack shit for anything. My point is that I hope Nintendo makes the amiibo items buyable DLC in the future.
Imagine how great it would be to buy an electronic version of a certain amiibo thats tied to your account so you can use it in other games and not have a scarcity issue
I saw a post that said the area affects the stats of the horse and just north to upland lindor they said they found very high stat horses (higher than epona and zeldas horse) I found a 4 strength 4 speed 5 stamina and a 2 strenght 5 speed 3 stamina there.
If you are todo a part 2, please incluede the minigames for the extra saddles and bridles. and showcase them? also i managed to find a horse with 4/4/5 stats. i think the location where i found it generally has better stats on horses.
guys remember, no matter what type of horse you’re using, you must be placing them far away from the battle field, or else when you try to do flurry rush near the horse, you’ll automatically enter the vulnerable state of the mounting animation.
Honestly I found the giant horse without any prior knowledge about it and I went to register it to see if I could thinking it would be like mounting a deer or something and I was shocked you could actually get it
The 5 strength horse with 3 speed and 5 stamina does not mean it is superior in combat to ganon horse tho. The ganon horse is way bigger so you can attack more enemies and you can reach enemies that are higher above that regular horses can't.
I love the horses , especially in BOTW because they are implemented so much more but i wish they'd have some of the old designs in OOT :( and "Spikey mane" epona. Yeah i know that was to make for a flow effect and cuz of poor graphics but it's what made her design rather cool. Maybe allow you to win it, and you can put on any horse in a few different colors (to match the horses body color/s) , and it'd be nice if they added a purchasable dlc of some sorts that lets you expand/buy/win what ever more stable space cuz # collectors. it sucks we can't keep the lord the mountain (the rest makes sense and kind of adds to the fun.) But at least we can keep Giant/ganon horse and the white knight/zelda's horse! Thank fuck i'd be pissed if we couldn't keep ganon's horse lol. I have a save for basic horses that i liked for colors and one that is my recording save will have the "Fancy" ones like epona ganon white knight etc.
Also i feel like WAY more could be done with the horses in the zelda franchise and BOTW in general. It would be a cool thing to go on adding DLC etc and its mmo-kind of feel makes me really want an online zelda game similar to BOTW , with constant content being released every now and then....it would be awesome and i bet they'd rack in a lot of attention and cash but that's just my take on it heha. Btw great video and content keep it up! ~Hatter
I got my first horse from a bokoblin rider, and we bonded very quickly after I rescued her from it. I named her Amber because her mane and tail are the color of the amber ore in the game. I put flowers in her hair ^-^
I got my first horse in the coolest way. I shot an arrow at a bokoblin on horseback and hopped right on. No fight or anything we just immediately started riding.
Christopher Ciccarelli That's false, don't trust the stats when you're talking about the giant horse. Here are some real stats: www.reddit.com/r/Breath_of_the_Wild/comments/67dtp8/so_just_how_good_is_the_giant_horse/
The one thing I don't like about the horse system in this game is you can't see all the stats of the horse (except stamina) until you let go of another horse, and register it at the stable. I lost a good, well-rounded horse by doing this on a gamble. I think if you make that mistake they should let you get the old horse back, or either just show you full stats right away.

It actually has no spurs, so you can't temporarily boost it like other horses.

I like how straight forward it is. It is more simple to learn it
Dude ur gonna be a sick Zelda channel I mean like ur editing is legit sick
I have Zelda's Horse, and all others have excellent stats. For best horses, go to the Upland Lindor, SSW of Serenne stable. Be sure to jump off the hill to the left, float down onto a horse for best results. Horses in that area are quite skittish. Good stealth doesn't entirely help you there.
nice editing!
the only tiny nitpick i have is that technically the horses have four gaits if you include the speed after spurring - walk, trot, canter, and gallop xD but aside from that wow this was really extensive and super helpful!! Thanks so much for making this lord knows i need it
I‘m not owning BotW but want to play it in the future.
So far, I‘m not spoilered - except horses of course.

It easy to get a horse if you kill a moblin that's on top of it
Laraina Sealz it’s also easy if you jump on the horse from a tree or something
True. They are already tamed but those are always horses with bad values.
Ninjaananas well early game that can help you a lot to get to places
Lyra Zylicain horses don't get moblin a on them
Some locations have goblins on horses
Edit: I hate autocorrect
I had 6 horses
Spot, who had 2 stars on everything
Good horse, who had one more stamina
Bob, who was my best horse at the time
Zeldas horse
Power boy who had 4non strength and speed but 5 stamina
And speedy who had 5 star speed and was blue
How do you like disown a horse??
@@carmeline.l8136 there's a mission where u could give someone a horse, which could be a registered horse. If you have 5 horses and try to register another one, you could choose a horse to release
@@tripled2505
When you tame 6th horse and ride it to stable, the stable person let's you release one of your horses back into the wild. So you aren't stuck with the same 5 horses
I named zelda's horse "horselink" lol
OMG this is the best horse guide in the game I got two horses that are better than Epona (I Have Epona) and I got the super fast horse thank you soooo much for your amazing guide and u just earned ur self a subscriber
Legend of zero:there are plenty of things you can ride beside horses
Me: don’t say it dong say it
If anyone wants to know a good area to find horses, the field between twin peaks and fort hateno has three spawns and there's a fourth spawn hiding in the trees along the river bank. I've found horses that rivaled Epona before. Sadly those horses have passed or were released for the white and giant horses
Wrong. The best place to find horses is the Upland Lindor. 2 spawns that also spawn the best horses in the game, statwise. They also have 2 stables nearby, unlike Taobab Grassland which makes you go through several horse riding Bokoblin archers and 2 Lynels.
When I did my second gameplay ('cause the first one didn't turned out so wellXD) I made energy potions when I got to leave the Great Plateau. This time, I wanted to pick the best horse I could found in the first group I'd see. I prefer black horses, because that is my fav color horse in real life and gameplay:)
And because I knew the black horses in Breath of the Wild are most likely one of the better horses.
I was lucky: the first time I saw a group horses there was a pretty black one. It had only a little white on it's feet and a small white stripe on it's head, that you can't see good through it's manes. SO PERFECT! I tamed it and I was surprised: it had four stamina, which is the best exept for the royal white stallion and Epona. I was really happy! I registered it and called it Magic. I still enjoy rides with him:)
If u go where ganon's horse is there is another horse that's has 4 speed 4 strength and 5 stamina
someone might have already said this but according to comics or something, Zelda's horse is named "Storm" and Ganon's horse is "Phantom"!
Your As Helpful As Zelda Dungeons!
Subbed Guy 👍
The best solid coloured horses are the ones that lead the herd, generally followed by the other horses. It's how I got my favourite horse :') I love it soo much
I have a herd leader solid colored one and he has 1 star strength, 3 star speed and 4 star stamina… those are horrendous, and I named him whit of all names
LOVE YOUR THUMBNAIL. I don't say that a lot
Me neither. Thanks! Haha
Hey thanks man, this has been a HUGE help, you are a godsend. Keep up the good work and I'll subscribe for the help. Thanks again brother.
Love the editing #roadto100k
Haha, you guys have higher aspirations for me than I do.
I tried registering the bear I found. It was an... interesting conversation. I wish you could mount the bulls, rhinos, and moose you find... Link on a moose.... Best. mount. ever.
I'm so disappointed they didn't make moose ridable in TotK...
There are 3 levels of speed * walking rickshaw and galloping*
An easy way I found to mount a horse without sneaking up on it or using an elixir,
Get to a high place near the horse of your choice ,tree ,hill ,rock you name it and hand glide your way right on top of Its back and you'll automatically be mounting it.
It's a great cheet😉
(don't try to glide to the side if the horse ,unless your in the mood for a swift kick in the ribs)
If you don't want to waste your money on an amiibo for Epona, there are horses that do look like her. Caught a 4 str, 4 spd, 5 sta Epona look-a-like at the Giant Horse location. There is only one difference though, her brown tint is SLIGHTLY darker compared to the Epona amiibo, that's it. I generally like Nintendo, but really, fuck amiibos :)
Rien van Zevenbergen Well there's another one that looks more of the same near Tanagar Canyon.
Rien van Zevenbergen
I did the same 😂👊 yess fuck amiibo
Rien van Zevenbergen amiibos are great actually its like mini toys that you can use in most of there games to get bonuses. i normally get zelda ones because i love how they look but i use them daily for BOTW
thebrunssss the only amiibo i wanted was the smash bros link one which gives the twilight princess tunic and epona but couldnt find one ;(
thebrunssss I love riding Epona around Hyrule Field while wearing the Twilight Princess tunic. Good times :)
Thank you. Short and concise 👍
I have the worst luck with this game, everything kills me in one hit, and no matter what I try to do the game stops me. Try to open towers well everyone is guarded by some ungodly powerful enemies…then last night before I went to sleep I see some horses and I figure let’s see how hard this is going to be and somehow jumped on one first try and tamed it right away and took it to a stable lol maybe my luck’s improving because I kept hearing how hard it was and I got it almost by accident lol
I tried to register a Bear, Deer and Stalhorse once, just for laughs, the Lord of The Mountain is my next silly joke.
If anyone's wondering, 'Epona' from all of the trailers and box art is available in the game (duh) and can be found in the wild. I caught them and equipped them with the traveller's kit from the amiibo, so now, along with all of the right gear and weapons, I have the things to look just like link from the trailers :)
It's in the horse spawn list, I'm sure. You can look up all the horse spawns or just check by stables every now and then. I'm not sure when the horses reset but you'll know when you see it. It's got a very distinctive chocolate colour, white hair on its feet and a white patch by the head. I saw two of them, so I guess I got lucky.
Extra tips:
- Boosting trust: Feeding your horse apples will boost it's trust. As soon as you catch one just keep pulling out apples until it stops eating them to get 100% trust.
- Ancient Bridle/Saddle: An item from the DLC, once found and placed on a horse it will make the horse warp to any location you are it when you whistle. It also will add 2 extra stamina slots to any horse.
- Catching Horses Easy: Sneak up near a horse then shoot it with an ice arrow. It will freeze the horse allowing you to run up behind it. Crouch down and spam the mount button until it unfreezes. You'll instantly jump on the horse.
- Extra Stamina: If you feed your horse an endura carrot it will gain 3 extra stamina slots. They will not regenerate once used.
You missed the crucial tip of gaining trust by repeatedly using a stamina unit and soothing right after regaining stamina.
If only there was a quest to get Epona instead of using an amiibo. The quest would probably be named "The quest for Epona" or "Link's horse" or something like that
Wow this helped a lot!
One difference between gentle and wild horses that I've noticed is that if you press A again after running out of stamina, the wild ones will throw you off.
That and Gentle horses let you climb on, whereas w
Wild horses will try to buck you off.
for taming horses with the "wild" temperament, if you just mash the L button to soothe them with the palm of your hand, you can tame that horse easily (I'm not talking about the bond.). It's almost guaranteed that the horse won't be able to kick you off, even if you have the lowest stamina (and a fast arm). (for both wii u and switch)
You can also find Stalhorses in the N Tabantha Snowfield
I recently tamed my first horse, a low-level spotty one. It's almost as if he had seen tamed horses passing by on the road and was like "that is what I want in my life."
Very useful video
wow awesome video
Very special horses important breeds and fashion. Nic
3:36 ima try to find zelda's horse soon :D
Anyone else named the giant horse Ganon without even knowing it was his just because it made you think of Ganon?
chinimasse nope. I named mine DESTOYER with the caps and everything.
I named mine billie
I named mine Wannabo
named mine Brutus.
I named him Behemoth. It’s some kind of giant Greek monster.
I caught the Giant Horse and I named him Tiny 😂
0:30 Catching a horse isn't as easy as walking up to it
*Well I did that and it worked first try*
So I don't know that pain😇
Blastoise Master Same
Well, I have a good working method, but it's kind of "motherfucker" method. Use an shocking arrow on the horse, go right behind me, and when his shock is over, ride him. That's how I nearly got all my horses :3 (they still love me tho :P)
Blastoise Master
P
ahah same only i use ice arrows
Blastoise Master ah lame. I shield surf xD
I just started playing botw and i got ganon horse without knowing what it was before seeing this video! While trying to catch it i was just like: this horse looks cool and difficult to soothe must be good. And didn't even realize it was lager than any other horse i thought i was passing by baby horses while riding lmao
So I just found out you can find different saddles and face armor for your horse and now Im losing my mind.
話說該不會沒斷臂，只是單純太熱脫掉流著紫色汗水的老鷹袖套吧！？
話說該不會沒斷臂，只是單純太熱脫掉流著紫色汗水的老鷹袖套吧！？
You do know you can find those horses again right? I tracked the same exact horse for 4 days! I was busy doing the dungeons while paying attention to where I found it, then when i got the chance tamed it and made my on Epona.
I find it really stupid that some of the coolest content in the game is locked behind amiibo. The ones for breath of the wild (from what I've seen) only give you items that at one point or another, you can get in game, but all the Smash amiibo and 30th anniversary amiibo actually give you cool items. The 30 anniversary amiibo are all sold out here in Canada from what I can see, and the smash amiibos are pretty hard to find. All we've got up here are those crappy animal crossing amiibo that do jack shit for anything. My point is that I hope Nintendo makes the amiibo items buyable DLC in the future.
Buyable DLC? Good luck buying the Biggoron Sword, and it breaking after a couple of fights... Are you gonna buy it again and again?
He means buying the amiibo online instead of finding sold out versions, also at regular prices instead of people over pricing it.
Imagine how great it would be to buy an electronic version of a certain amiibo thats tied to your account so you can use it in other games and not have a scarcity issue
Just go on amazon or make your own using blank NPC chips and a phone app. There are TH-cam videos showing how to do that.
SomeguycalledSmithy I thaaaaaaaaaaaattt!!!!!!!😱😟😟😱😵😵😈👹👺
There are always undead bokoblins mounted on Stalhores in Lon Lon Ranch ruins at night
A player who has been playing for a little over a year: "THE GIANT HORSE IS GANON'S" "YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE YOUR HORSE!?"
I got Zelda’s horse without knowing about it. Later I watched the memory of link and Zelda and figured it out
You can find a horse with 4 strength 4 speed and 5 stamina in the same place the giant horse is found.
Ahem.... you spelled “strength” wrong. Also I’m a huge fan! Keep it up.
I saw a post that said the area affects the stats of the horse and just north to upland lindor they said they found very high stat horses (higher than epona and zeldas horse) I found a 4 strength 4 speed 5 stamina and a 2 strenght 5 speed 3 stamina there.
If you are todo a part 2, please incluede the minigames for the extra saddles and bridles. and showcase them?
also i managed to find a horse with 4/4/5 stats. i think the location where i found it generally has better stats on horses.
guys remember, no matter what type of horse you’re using, you must be placing them far away from the battle field, or else when you try to do flurry rush near the horse, you’ll automatically enter the vulnerable state of the mounting animation.
You can also get epona from the twilight princess link amiibo.
I have started master mode and after the great plateau and went to the stable I have already found a good horse.
Honestly I found the giant horse without any prior knowledge about it and I went to register it to see if I could thinking it would be like mounting a deer or something and I was shocked you could actually get it
The 5 strength horse with 3 speed and 5 stamina does not mean it is superior in combat to ganon horse tho. The ganon horse is way bigger so you can attack more enemies and you can reach enemies that are higher above that regular horses can't.
Feeding horses endura carrots temporarily increases the number of spurs by 2 or 3. It's the horse equivalent of yellow stamina rings.
I have Epona, Storm (Zeldas horse) and Phantom ( Gabon’s horse) and my own horse :D
I just don't have enough stamina to get Ganondorf's horse yet, so I'm gonna have to wait a while.
I'm mad at myself because I tamed a blue horse and named it Nayru, and I missed the chance to call it Neighru
I love the horses , especially in BOTW because they are implemented so much more but i wish they'd have some of the old designs in OOT :( and "Spikey mane" epona. Yeah i know that was to make for a flow effect and cuz of poor graphics but it's what made her design rather cool. Maybe allow you to win it, and you can put on any horse in a few different colors (to match the horses body color/s) , and it'd be nice if they added a purchasable dlc of some sorts that lets you expand/buy/win what ever more stable space cuz # collectors. it sucks we can't keep the lord the mountain (the rest makes sense and kind of adds to the fun.) But at least we can keep Giant/ganon horse and the white knight/zelda's horse! Thank fuck i'd be pissed if we couldn't keep ganon's horse lol. I have a save for basic horses that i liked for colors and one that is my recording save will have the "Fancy" ones like epona ganon white knight etc.
Also i feel like WAY more could be done with the horses in the zelda franchise and BOTW in general. It would be a cool thing to go on adding DLC etc and its mmo-kind of feel makes me really want an online zelda game similar to BOTW , with constant content being released every now and then....it would be awesome and i bet they'd rack in a lot of attention and cash but that's just my take on it heha. Btw great video and content keep it up! ~Hatter
Daily Dungeonists the lord of the mountain isn’t meant to be owned...
Plus the special horses are descendants
I got my first horse from a bokoblin rider, and we bonded very quickly after I rescued her from it. I named her Amber because her mane and tail are the color of the amber ore in the game. I put flowers in her hair ^-^
I assume that this video didn't cover summoning your horse with the Ancient Bridle because it was posted before the EX DLC?
if you can stable more then 1 horse having epona along with Zelda and gannons horse would be epic!
You can board 5 horses.
I named ganon’s horse Hulk
I didn’t know at the time the horse belonged to Ganon. It’s my favorite horse
Where does it say it's Ganons Horse? From what I remember, it has only been referenced as the Giant Horse.
Legend of zero ima subscriba
Hey zero! You did amazing!!! But I'd like to add that you said ganondorf's horse has infinite stamina? But that actually means it has none
I had a Stalhorse once. I loved it, wanted to register it but they said no :(
Bug Catcher Jacky it would die in the sunlight anyway
Hey if you feed a hors enduro carrots it will gain Moore stamina speed spurs
If you get Epona,zeldas horse(name un-none),or ganons horse(name un-none) they have like 4 or 5 stamina stars
I got my first horse in the coolest way. I shot an arrow at a bokoblin on horseback and hopped right on. No fight or anything we just immediately started riding.
Ganon's horse has no stamina, it can't sprint.
duderanch0 yes it can't but when it is going as fast as it can go it goes faster than a normal horses dash
isaiah sardar No it doesn't go faster. It is one of the slowest horses.
isaiah sardar No, no it doesn't.
But it still looks cool 🤗
Christopher Ciccarelli That's false, don't trust the stats when you're talking about the giant horse. Here are some real stats: www.reddit.com/r/Breath_of_the_Wild/comments/67dtp8/so_just_how_good_is_the_giant_horse/
If anyone is wondering what the name if Zelda's White Horse is called. The Horses name is "Storm".
KamidakeRed no it's just a TH-camr who named it like that
Wait... you can feed your horse... Apples!?
The one thing I don't like about the horse system in this game is you can't see all the stats of the horse (except stamina) until you let go of another horse, and register it at the stable. I lost a good, well-rounded horse by doing this on a gamble. I think if you make that mistake they should let you get the old horse back, or either just show you full stats right away.
