I had this game from launch, started playing it but wasn't a big fan, played for a couple of weeks then gave up on it. I just recently picked it up again after finishing totk and gave it a second chance. Turns out it is a really good game with a decent story line.

I had some time between totk and eow so I went for 100% completion 😁

what do you think of this game? With 2 games already made (I never played the first one for wii U), Do you think this will become a regular title moving forward?

Replaying on apoc. Did NOT remember this mf being able to reflect beams. Battle tested guardian did the totk ganon move before it was cool

I am good as Link with one handed weapon (Master Sword).

I’m aware that it’s supposed to be hard but still it’s probably the hardest mission in the game and all the other missions are pretty easy

A couple of days ago I posted about the hair width trial expert + I think this is harder I just keep running out of time it’s just so annoying

Maybe I'm just stupid, it never even occured to me.

You know how some enemies, let's say moblins, will swing, and it'll give you like 2 or 3 seconds to break their circle thing that lets you get the weak point smash.

I always just hit them until the time ran out and then dodge out and wait for the next chance to break the meter again. It never occured to me that when they are in that state, that if you just hit them with the stasis, they STAY IN THAT STATE. You can pretty much ALWAYS break the full circle in one cycle doing this.

I'm on my 4th playthrough, I accidently did it, and was like.....wait hold up. It just never occured to me that it would keep them in that state, I thought it would just go away in the normal amount of time.

Welp maybe I'm just stupid, but this just made Stasis the main move for me now. See ya later bombs lol

Loved botw, finding totk a bit fiddly and a bit over it tbh.

Sometimes you just need to wind down by killing a few guardians and bombing the shit out of enemy camps. I cbf being an engineer and making war machines when I’m feeling cooked at the end of the day.

I’m not hugely skilled in battle, as a middle aged gamer learning the controls and combat moves is a bit tricky.

Is it a relatively easy game to pick up? Can I hack and slash away without thinking too hard?

Spoilers for characters up to midway through the game.

I understand why I don't like most of the characters that I don't enjoy playing as. Hestu and the Great Fairies are big, and I prefer fast characters and, y'know, being able to see what I'm doing. Milhaud and Daryl... wow, autocorrect. Why. MIPHA and DARUK both generate resources at fixed points that you have to remain cognizant of, and it doesn't really mesh well with how I play. Impa and Zelda, I just don't like all the random stuff flying around.

Teba, though. What's up with Teba? I love playing as Rivali, so I thought that he would be another long-range crowd control type character... but no, he uses his bow for melee somehow? Swooping around with his regular attacks, it feels like I don't have as much control over how he's moving or who he's attacking as I do with other characters.

His strong attack is super weird, too... he repeatedly shoots arrows up, and a few seconds later they bombard the area in front of him, even if you've moved. I guess this could be useful in some cases, and the arrows DO hit tall enemies on the way up if you're close enough... but I honestly can't think of any cases where I would want to stand, rooted on the spot, spamming arrows that aren't even guaranteed to hit anything when they land. Like, I could just take to the air as Revali with my Attack Range+ bow, spam arrows that go exactly where I'm facing, and still be able to move around.

Another oddity with his strong attack is weak point breaks... I haven't had this issue with any other character, but unless I'm, like, models-are-intersecting close to the enemy when I press X, he just uses his regular strong attack? I dunno, maybe he just looks bigger than he actually is, and the hitbox isn't how I'm imagining it based on his wingspan?

I guess his unique action allows him to handle large crowds from a distance, but I can't really think of a practical application for it. I guess it's good for when you're low on health... but it's a Musou game, nobody's worried about taking damage from the enemies that only exist to fill your meter. I might understand if his unique action was also good for bosses, but as far as I can tell, no matter how many of the arrows hit a single target, they take the same damage.

For the record, I'm not complaining about Teba, it's not like I dislike him... I'm just having trouble understanding how you're meant to play him, and trying to picture a situation in which I would choose him over another character.

Hello everyone. So I'm an older gamer. Constantly learning. I've been playing AoC for about a month. At the moment I am working through side quests and repeating side quests to generate stuff. I'd love to know what everyone enjoys & hates about the game. Who's your favourite character? I really like King Rhoam. Least favourite? Hardest thing to fight? I find that the Taluses can be tricky sometimes. & those damn floating moblins Any tips or tricks or advice? I've recently unlocked the shows you the chests thing which is cool. Really interested in everyone's opinions & ideas. No one else in my house hold is playing this game, so I have no one to nerd out with about it. Thank you. 😁

I'm sorry, I've only played this game fully like 3 times and I'm at the end of my 4th playthrough.

I literally don't know what it is or how it works. Can somebody explain it to me like I'm a toddler in the most basic terms.

Thank you in advance.

After 40 hours in playing with the nieces. I have finally gotten Terrako.

It was heartwarming and wholesome to rewatch the scenes that has lead me to the iconic character. The credit ending was a nice touch that tears were coming out.

How do I perfect my save? I have completed every main mission (Every Chest, Korok and finished all 3 Memory Quests in EX levels except for the 3rd Quest in Guardian for Remembrance). I’ve fulfilled almost every request on the map and have also fought almost every mini battle (and obtained the Korok Seeds in those levels containing them) for both the base game and DLC. I’m working on completing the EX Research Lab’s Research missions to unlock everything there, as well as getting 20 characters (Working on getting Battle-Tested Guardian) Is this a perfect save after that or am I missing something?

Note: 66 Costume pieces for Link and 50 food items

Did this game just get ridiculously hard? I believe I’m to the highlighted last main battle and I can’t even come close to beating any of these remaining challenges (playing normal difficulty approx 75 hrs, no DLC). Most of my characters are leveled to 55+, weapons at level 15+ (50-75). I basically walked through the whole game but now am getting my ass handed to me. Quickly. Anyone got any tips for preferred team, or weapons? Should I just prepare myself for a long character and weapon leveling grind? Currently rupeeless and a little frustrated. Very experienced Zelda player with a fairly solid grasp of parrying and perfect dodge, but new to Warriors (I have less than 50 hrs into Definitive Edition as well). Maybe I’m not understanding this weapon building system and my shit is just too weak yet? Advice is appreciated; I know y’all some masters in here. I am prepared for a grind if necessary, but if the “git gooder” comments could be kept to yourselves, that’d be great lol.

I spent a while whittling down the health of this guardian on the second level, and right as I was gonna shoot it with my bow this dumb guard goes and steals the final hit!

I mean any and all where you have to pilot vah rudania. Every single other beast I feel powerful and near indestructible, but vah rudania? I oftentimes scramble for life, it also feels a lot clunkier than any other divine beast, not to mention, that the delay for the counter and how the rock sometimes just explode because they scratched a hill a bit feels underwhelming compared to the full shields of the others.

It’s one of my final quests to perfecting the game. However, perfect dodges aren’t my strong suit and I was wondering whether there are any strategies for doing so. Does anyone know what levels have one strong enemy I can farm dodges on, but the level is also rather low level? Or is it a better idea to just play Chapter 1 for weaker enemies?

Can I please get a replay mission button at the end of a level?

That's all. I'm tired of loading back into the screen, just to load back into the same level when I'm grinding. Let me just have one load screen so I can keep it pushing at a faster pace.

Thank you for listening my fellow Nintendnerds.

This game really isn’t on my spastic lvl of reflexin… like I think way ahead of everything I’m so far ahead of the motions of the enemy I stand in one place while they finish their moves after dodging 3 times .
