You got of the sky island? If not I'd recommend you leave this thread, wouldn't want to spoil the game
I did the first regional phenomenon, and then started exploring depths. I found an armored lynel, and teied him with my shit weapons. after dying 20 times i realised Sword plus spiked metal ball does well against armored enemies...
Havent found anything with base dmg unfused more than 20...
I started the zora one. Not finished yet. But I did the second koga fight. That combined with white lynels made me notice I need more damage
I ran into a flux construct in the deapths. My weapons did very little damage to it. Idk if theres a certain type of weapon that works better for them or not ...
You gotta hit the glowing cube
Yeah. I unfused it till he was split up. My weapons damaged the glowing cube very slowly.....
What variant was it and what weapons
Dont know what variant. I had a few hammers (powerful. Sword plus rare talus heart). All broke quickly when pounding the cube. My zonai weapons were weak (15 spear). They did damage but were slow...
It was also a pot more powerful than the ones i had seen before.
Thats intentional. You're supposed to fuse monster horns to weapons for damage.
Base points aren't what matter. From an endgame player, I use zora weapons (~12 dmg base I think) and fuse them with silver lynel horns, which are worth 55 and carry the weapons.
The most important part of using weapons is knowing their modifiers. With Zora weapons (Water Warrior), the weapon doubles in damage if link is near water or wet (throwing chuchu or other stuff works for that), bringing damage up to the 120s or so.
In conclusion, the totk system is not about strong damage base items, but instead making use of the item's properties and fusing strong items to your weapons. It may be easier for you to always be at 1 heart for knights weapons, for example, or maybe you dodge a lot and therefore prefer royal weapons. And if all else fails, don't forget your damage boosting armors too.
From an endgame perspective would you say the gloom weapons are good till I can beat silver and white lynels?
