It lists all necessary upgrade materials sorted by armor and level, but you can also just check off the ones you have and let the site generate a summary of the total materials you need. This is especially useful IMHO for sets that have repeat items: imagine you just farmed 6x Lynel Guts to upgrade your set of Barbarian Armor to the fourth level and then sold the excess Lynel Parts because you thought you were done with them, only to realize that the Radiant Set you just bought also needs them and you have to farm again .... if you know that stuff beforehand, you can easily determine which items are safe to sell.

Link to the spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yO94WSP_sA7Gw3zmEuxKvsAkvqwMjR3xoZiPqYcoeU0/edit#gid=0

The spreadsheet itself and the idea for the tests are from u/_p5e_ on reddit. The only thing I contributed were roughly half of the in-game tests (listed as "jlfd" on the second page), but the rest of the work was done by them, so all credit for that goes to _p5e_.

Explanation:

When you cook, you might get a random "crit" (critical success) in roughly 5% of all cases, that will make the meal/elixir better than usual, like healing 5 more hearts, offering a couple more minutes of an effect, healing more stamina etc. and there are also ways to guarantee crits, like cooking between 23:30 and 00:15 on a Blood Moon night.

Some ingredients also offer a 100% crit chance, like Star Fragments and Dragon Parts, and especially Dragon Horn Shards are popular ingredients as they force every timed effect to last for 30 minutes flat.

... but those aren't the only ingredients that affect crits. A lot of regular monster parts, for example Keese Eyeballs or Hinox Guts, also boost your chances of recieving a crit by a certain percentage (in the example cases +30% each), and a bunch of the seemingly "useless" filler ingredients do the same to a lesser extent (Goron Spice, butter and sugar for example add +10% at least).

This only shows how many Shrines and Koroks are in any individual map tower zone, without spoiling their exact locations. Keep in mind tho that some Koroks are on/under bridges leading from one map tower zone to another, so opinions on where they belong to may differ.

Hyrule Castle belongs to the Central Hyrule map tower zone.

Shrine QUESTS may appear in different map tower zones than the shrine they belong to.

The original image is a screenshot of the Zeldamods Interactive Map and the text and icons were added by me.

You can actually read the Hylian script on the pages, tho I dearly hope that this is just a placeholder text ... otherwise I have some questions for King Rhoam.

The vast majority of texts in books, on signs etc. can be translated into proper English by the way. You just have to keep in mind that some letters look identical in the Hylian script (like for example O and Z using the same symbol) so a little bit of guesswork might be needed. It's easier in context - when you have to decide if a word spells "school" or "schzzl" then only one of them makes sense ;)

Personally, I like Revali's "old" design better than the discount Falco we got in the end. Seems like they had a general fighter/musician theme going on with the Rito in general instead of just Kass in particular, and a cello bow (cellow?) would have been an interesting, unique weapon.

Also, the "eaven earlier" Champion designs included a Kokiri Champion and a Sheikah Champion that were ultimately scrapped from the game, along with whips and hookshots.

Feel free to make a copy for personal use. It's simply easier to click a couple of checkboxes whenever you've slain a bunch of enemies instead of keeping track on a sheet of paper and then having to calculate everything yourself. And not keeping track at all when you're after the yellow modifier on a Hylian Shield or Royal Guard's Claymore can be frustrating in the long run.

There are a lot of similar lists across the internet, but the ones I've found so far either had only "example" recipes (like listing Elixirs as Lizalfos Tail + Summerwing Butterfly, as if other combinations weren't valid) or were stuffed to the brim with screenshots, icons and colorful backgrounds, which would make printing them a little inconvenient.

Also keep in mind that there is no reward for cooking all recipes in BotW, and no in-game way to track those either (unless you want to keep example dishes in your food inventory tab at all times).

Spoiler-Free Korok Seed Map (cdn.segmentnextimages.com)
submitted 9 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

This map lists only the amount of Korok Seeds per region, without giving away their exact locations. Maps like these are a helpfull middle-ground tool between "not wanting to look up things" and "not wanting to lose all sanity trying to find the last 3 Koroks".

Some minor additions to keep in mind:

  • You can only find 15 of the 18 Koroks in the "Great Plateau" Zone prior to leaving the Great Plateau for the first time. Two of them are at ground level and can not be reached while the voidout fog still exists, and the third literally does not exist until the "Kingdom of Hyrule" text has appeared onscreen.

  • Some Koroks are very very very close to the map tower zone borders, especially the ones near/on/under bridges whenever the border aligns with a river. You might end up counting them towards the total of the wrong zone.

  • Some Koroks look identical despite being separate puzzles. For example, there are two "chase the sparkles" koroks in the sourthern half of the map that literally chase each other along the same path. You might end up clearing one of them, not realizing that you "should do it twice".

  • If you have the DLC, wearing the Korok Mask greatly helps!

  • You only need 441 Korok Seeds to max out yout inventory. Collecting all 900 of them is optional, and the reward for doing so is shit. Literally.

There are no Korok Puzzles at all in some particular areas: (click to reveal spoiler)There are no puzzles in the Lost Woods, Eventide Island, Death Mountain (the area behind Bridge of Eldin) and inside of the 3 labyrinths. The only Puzzle of the Typhlo Ruins is outside of the dark area.

Nothing unusual about Link talking to a Korok while a Yiga breaks the fourth wall and a Mountain Goat is trying to fight a Bokoblin on a floating platform in the background.

None of this is photoshop BTW. Just one of the most random, chaotic-weird screenshots I took.

Some people clear this quest without ANY issues, and some don't seem to get it to work at all, and the game frankly does a lousy job explaining the exact requirements - because there is more to it than "just" shooting four targets.

Some common problems and their solutions:


1. Don't start the minigame

Depending on which other quests you have cleared and NPC's you spoke to, Teba can be found at the Flight Range again after the Vah Medoh questline has been completed. He offers a minigame that is identical to the challenge he put Link through at the start of the questline, only that this time, you get cash depending on how many targets you destroy before the timer runs out.

It might seem like a no-brainer to speak to him and start the minigame to make the targets appear, but this literally overrides the quest requirements, so a suddenly appearing shrine won't mess up your high scores.

Solution: Ignore Teba. Just don't talk to him and go shoot targets outside of the minigame.

Also, take a quick glance at the targets themselves. If they look like this:

... then you either started the minigame, didn't start the "Four Targets" quest or missed a step during the Champions' Ballad, because these targets will NOT work no matter how many you shoot.

If they look like this:

... then the quest can be completed.


2. Shoot four targets ... in ONE bullet time

There is no counter on the screen during this quest (which would have made this issue a lot easier to notice) so the player has no real way of knowing whether a shot counted or not. And the game does not tell you that the targets have to be shot without leaving bullet time. Every time you run out of stamina, open the paraglider, put your bow away, run out of arrows, shoot while standing on the ground instead of being airborne or any other reason that ends bullet time, will reset the invisible target counter back to zero.

The nasty part is, that the counter has a little lag. You still have to be in bullet time while the last target disintegrates and the full "breaking apart" animation has played out. If you open your glider the moment the arrow hits the target (or while the arrow is still flying), it will still be too soon and you have to start over.

Solution: Make sure you have enough stamina to stay in bullet time for a while. One Ring is not enough unless you cheat a bit (like placing bombs near the targets), but if you don't want to upgrade your green stamina, you can also use yellow stamina from "Endura" foodstuff or special beds. And don't forget that you can replenish stamina mid-flight! As long as you just don't leave bullet time, it is perfectly fine to open the menu and chug a few stamina potions or mushroom skewers or whatever.


3. You still have to open the Paraglider at least once

This is IMHO the most bullsh*t requirement out of these three. If you jump into the chasm, enter bullet time and shoot four targets, even if it have been the correct ones and you didn't leave bullet time, might it STILL not work.... because you didn't open the glider. Which you're not allowed to do while shooting, but NEED to do before you start. I have absolutely no idea which genius at Nintendo thought his was a mandatory requirement to add, but well, there it is.

Solution: Jump into the chasm, open the Paraglider and glide for a moment, then enter bullet time and start shooting targets without leaving bullet time again.


General tips:

  • Endura Carrots grow near all Fairy Fountains and 5x cooked into a dish will give you a full extra ring of yellow stamina. Not to mention that any "Endura" dish also refills all green stamina in one go on top of that.

  • Multishot bows and bomb arrows can make the quest a lot easier. The game doesn't care for HOW the targets were destroyed, so a bomb blast ripping a target apart will still contribute to the invisible counter.

  • ...and the same goes for remote bombs. You can kind of wedge those between certain targets or just chug one at a target before you start shooting (the updraft will keep it floating)

  • Save the game before you try. If you mess up, you can just reload to get all your arrows, bow durability, food/elixirs and a bit of sanity back ;)

Link to the spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NqJoQxZQJ_8UCLStiqGwgAOPN1V0Z9uCoq9lW_LYGKo/pubhtml

All credit goes to HylianAngel @ gamefaqs and their fellow helpers mentioned in the "credits" tab.

A minor addition to the data: Some individual weapons are exempt from scaling up despite having "bonus" values in the game code, and that can mess up the data a bit. For example, Woodcutter's Axes are actually programmed to scale up, recieve blue/white and then yellow bonuses, and eventually turn into Double Axes - but literally ALL of the Woodcutter's Axes in the overworld are specifically exempt from scaling, and there are none inside treasure chests, so it is impossible to get them with yellow bonuses despite the game code saying otherwise. (They can randomly and VERY rarely get a blue bonus independendly from the scaling mechanic, but the chance of that happening is super low)

The spreadsheet already accounts for that and simply says "impossible" whenever this scenario applies (like for the Champion's weapons, everything from the Akkala Tech Lab etc.) but there are also older guides that rely solely on the game code without taking into account whether or not those weapons are actually obtaineable in-game. That's why the "Complete Official Guide" (which is neither complete nor official by the way) has a multiple pages long list of weapon bonuses that do not exist in the actual game.

All horse coat color combinations in Breath of the Wild: https://imgur.com/a/dByZy

...funnily, there is not a single solid dark-brown one. The dark brown horses always have a white muzzle or hooves or both, but horses like this one do not exist. (it's a lazy photshop just to demonstrate what I mean)

I guess teal and pink were more believable than a completely dark brown horse ...

  • a cooking simulator that includes selling price, effect duration, health restoration etc.

  • a complete Hyrule Compendium with the "default" pictures, descriptions, loot

  • an interactive map that can even be toggled between vanilla game and DLC

... and you do not need to download an app or create an account to use it. No fee either.

♦ Rules ♦


1. Stay Civil

This is a place for friendly discussion, memes, guides, art, gameplay questions, screenshots and the like. Discrimination and harrassment won't be tolerated.


2. Mark Spoilers

It is okay to post about "related games" (such as Age of Calamity and Tears of the Kingdom) but please use the spoiler "censor" and do not put spoilers directly into the title, as the censor doesn't work this way. Posts about other Zelda games might be suited better in general Zelda communities, like the ones listed at the bottom of the sidebar.


3. Offtopic Posts

Anything not related to BotW, like politics, religion, non-Zelda games etc. is better suited elsewhere and will be removed. The same goes for NSFW material.


4. No Advertisements

It is okay to post about merchandise, but links to those "design your own merch" sites will be removed, as those are almost always scams featuring stolen art. Affliate links will be removed as well. This isn't Etsy.


5. Provide Sources

If you're going to post art, comics, guides, screenshots etc. that are not your own OC, please mention the name of the original creator and ideally also a link to their portfolio/website. (Pinterest is almost never the original source)


6. Suggestions are Welcome!
