Quick question. Does this game let you get the classic green tunic and hat without the need to get an amiibo?

With a lot of work, yea. It's also objectively better than the amiibo items because the game's tunic can be painted, the amiibo ones cannot

It's the shrine quest where you have to
defeat the corrupted dragon. One of the three triforce quests.

It's just frustrating for people who keep trying to sneak past all the guardians instead of
climbing the cliffs and using magnesis on the steel blocks to wipe them all out while he waits behind as you note.
I got annoyed for a few attempts before I remembered the focus on exploration and decided to climb and look for other options. I never got frustrated with the game after that as I rarely tried something more than once before looking for another option if that attempt failed.

Thanks for the replies.
I've purposely been avoiding media. I need to go in as fresh as possible when I finally get to play it. : )
It's easy for Link to go sneaky not for a Goron.

The theme for Zora's Domain after the Divine Beast is conquered is sweet honey in my ears.

Really? Well screw me! Can't believe I spent time doing it the hard way.
Edit: I'm not seeing it there. Anything particular you have to do?

It also has
the highest defense of any other armor set in the game besides the soldier set and the ancient set. Amiibo armor stays at 20 defense per piece when fully upgraded and the Wild Tunic armor set goes up to 28 per piece

Speaking of which, is there an easy way to farm for Star Fragments outside of amiibo?

I'm not entirely sure about this. I don't know if it's once per encounter or if there is just some kind of cooldown.
I was hunting
Naydra near Mt Lanayru - East Gate
horn piece.
After retrieving the item drop, I climbed back up the mountain with the intention of making camp and waiting for it to appear again, but to my surprise, it was already close by and seemed to be passing through the path again. I took another shot and got another item for my trouble.
So the possibilities are...
1. It's possible to get a second item after you have picked up your first one.
2. It's possible to get a second item after a certain cooldown time.
3. It spawned twice, once immediately after the other, and approached my vantage point again without me noticing.
I don't know which it is.
I also had an issue where
Dinraal wouldn't give me a horn no matter how many times I reloaded the save. I would hit it right in the horn, unmistakably, but would only get a scale. Either the hitbox for the horns are broken or you always get a scale, no matter what, the first time you shoot the dragon. This could be done for the benefit of the Spring of Widsom/Courage/Power quests.
Oh!
I never thought about it... yeah,
the first thing I did when I saw those drones was looking the environment and when I looked the metallic boxes it just clicked..
Reminded me that part in which to open a gate I used Stasis on the door and hit it to open it instead of using Cryonis because forgot that I had that power.
I really hate having to aim when hitting something that was frozen in time. I'm just bad at it.
I got to this shrine where I have to hit a ball just enough so that it can land on a small platform the other side of a hole and I.keep.missing because the arrow isn't straight and I run out of time trying to make it so. I think I broke 2 or 3 of my weapons before giving up yesterday.

There was an easier solution than perfectly timing it.
You could use the map to rotate the power source in/out of position to remotely activate and deactivate the electric mechanisms. It's the only time in the game I remember intentionally manipulating something off screen, which is perhaps why it wasn't obvious.

There are some that you can find in chests. You need three for fully upgrading the
Tunic of the Wild set
The Dog chest in Lurelin village has a star fragment, the stable
dog chests are found feeding a dog, then the dog takes you to a chest
The dog chest in snowfield stable has one too.
there is another fragment inside a metal chest inside the Hyrule castle docks.Right below in the water in front of the
secret shrine there
If not, you just have to wait for the night to come and be on the look out of a fragment falling, look for the column of light and go there to pick it up.
Farming star fragments sucks.I am never upgrading the Ocarina of Time set, ever. It requires 30 fragments to upgrade it fully, which is stupid xD
Oh, savage Lynels (silver) drop them too.

I decided to approach Death Mountain yesterday. I had not lit that tower and I hadn't explore any of the area because of the heat. Finally I bought some heat resistant potions and went for it.
My first mission was to reach the tower, which I did very easily with three bursts of Revali's Gale. But from there, I realized I didn't know anything about the layout of the volcano and had no idea where to go to reach the Goron Village. I ended up getting there by following the shrine sensor. And I didn't even know I was there until it told me on screen. Great, I thought.
But I'm definitely conflicted because I basically didn't explore Death Mountain at all. I have to get some fireproof lizards to upgrade my flamebreaker set though, so I'll probably try to get back to the village on foot.

If you beat
without
, can you
?
the divine beast bosses
taking pictures
buy their pictures from the lab
Okay, so I just entered Hyrule Castle for the first time, and I swear
And yeah, the loot here is damn great. For those having trouble getting dragon scales and such, some chests here have them.
the Master Sword does not seem to ever "break" against guardians and monsters there. I've been raiding the place for a good hour just smashing every enemy on sight, and it has yet to get "low energy" at any point. Maybe there truly is an unbreakable weapon in this game, only at certain conditions, like my earlier theory about the Master Sword not ever breaking inside the divine beasts. Gonna test it more and see if it really is true.

It can break there, it just has MASSIVELY increased durability. I've had it break inside a Divine Beast because I used it heavily outside on the overworld.
Pro tip: hold down ZL and just move left or right to perfect your direction. You'll get your aim down on your second or third swing that way.
As for golfing. Were you doing the shrine where there is an optional one for treasure? If so you need to hit it with
the hammer 5 times and then switch out for a lesser weapon like a spear and hit it once.

Use the LZ targeting to get more precise with lining up.

Yeah I remember that shrine. It was a long shot but I only succeeded by using my spear weapons bc they were easier to swing straight than a dual wield hammer they give you. Also ZL helps a ton!
Anyone know why there's a random metal door in the bottom of that pond? I don't think there's any korok puzzles nearby
It's south of the stable that get hits by lightning in the Faron jungles
There's an enemy encampment on a ledge below this plateau. You can glide to one of the towers but must use the metal door to make it to the other and get the treasure chest there.
Is that so? Maybe it really is massive because it's really taken a lot of hits and still going strong.
Though I found one exception. I tried using it on a stasis and it seems it goes back to its usual durability when used against objects in stasis. It did break in just a few strikes.
Yes. I think how it works:
You get a "Legendary Monster" category to buy from after you beat the game.

Thanks, Impulsor! I have 3 in inventory. Thought I would need more for
Tunic of the Wild.

If you need help finding the stuff for upgrading this set, let me know. I went through this yesterday and it took me the whole evening to gather everything to fully upgrade it.

I'm still early in BOTW on the WiiU and it blows my mind how nintendo got this to work as good as it did on that hardware. I know the framerate isn't that consistent but the fact that it runs at all when its pouring rain and all those weather effect are going on blows my mind.

Thanks for the answer, glad they add that.
Besides releasing the left trigger and centering on another enemy? I don't think there is one.
I find the targeting to be really lacking.
SomewhatGroovy

Nice, will do.
Yeah but I'm not even sure where to begin looking for them. And when go swimming for fish I have my stealth suit on. Just wonder where they could be.
One of my biggest complaints tbh
Targeting, then releasing the targeting, and trying to re-target to center your shield is sometimes just impossible.

If it's the one that is part of the main quest I didn't see how it was that bad...
Not too mention just how close you have to be before you can actually lock-on.

I fought 4 guardians simultaneously last night , each with their lasers focused on me, and I only had to make sure to parry any hits, regardless of who i was focused on or which direction the shots came in. So if you have 3 goons right in front of you, just parry away attacks until you can get a clear shot to attack them.
It's especially bad when trying to fight
parry
Ya it was fine, knocking all those drones out of the sky was fun.
Lol just found out my tv supported surround and the switch does also turned it on.... Yeah it sounds orgasmic to the ears the music ingame is top notch....! (especialy Hateno Village)
Can't wait to replay the whole game with it turned on whenever hard mode is out.
Going to do all sidequests and shrines on this save and fuck around

Yeah I'm most of the way through the dungeon that follows it and that escort section was nowhere near as painful as people here made it out to be. He only got stuck once and it was easily fixed.
Speaking of the DM dungeon, how do I activate the penultimate control panel?
I know it has to have something to do with the slope with the slender metal rods that run on it, and I've seen each of the ends, at least one of which has a tiny Magnesis-compatible box under, but what do I DO exactly? I did light the blue flame on the outside at one end but that's as far as I've gotten.

I enjoyed carrying one of the items past their apparent area of usefulness, then smashing regular enemies about the head with them. Good times.
Wait...how does a TV do surround sound if you don't have speakers, you know, surrounding you? Do you mean simulated surround sound?
