♦ 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!

Feedback, requests for improvements and constructive criticism are always appreciated ;)

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.
