[SPOILERS] The Problems with Points of Interest (PoI)

Introduced in Black Flag and expanded upon in Origins and Odyssey, Points of Interest have become a detriment to the Assassin’s Creed series. It’s a relatively simple mechanic and used by many open-world games. While exploring the world, you’ll see question marks across the map and indicated on your HUD. Upon going to the location, you’re greeted with some experience points for discovery and a checklist of things to do (when applicable) to complete the location, which then grants more xp. It’s a simple trick to extend playtime, and seems to have worked on many fans of the new formula. This topic is really more of a prelude to a wider topic I’ll be discussing soon on the world design of the series, though was something I felt deserved its own thread, due to how damaging these are through the repetition, harm to exploration, and the breaking of the core gameplay loop.
The Damage Done
Unfortunately, the damage has been done to the series already, largely claiming Origins and Odyssey as their victims. Whereas Black Flag and Rogue managed to keep the ? to primarily optional locations and encompassed full islands, we see Origins and Odyssey starting to change everything for these PoI. The core loop of “classic AC” was often rooted in narrative development. For more information on that, take a look at a previous post; here. Modern AC is, however, more focused on the core loop being around the PoI. Every quest takes you to a point that’s marked out on your map. All content now begins to revolve around the completion of these PoI.
Think, if you will, back to Brotherhood. Imagine all the side content available. You have a fight club, gambling, guild quests, assassination missions, templar hunt missions, assassin contracts, rebuilding Rome, Borgia Towers, Lairs of Romulus, war machines, and guild synchronization. You also now had an animus training room, main mission optional objectives, and collectibles if you wanted more than all that. Despite all of the main side activities being reused across the map, each activity was unique, didn’t overstay its welcome, and brought fresh new experiences. Even the collectibles, while a bit grindy, were largely related to helping the narrative progression. All of this content didn’t stop from intricate set-pieces either; meaning that even though the gameplay was largely the same across the title, the player was always introduced to fresh new ways to use and experience that. The player wanted to complete the content for the experience and if they’re a completionist, to tick off that checkbox that the game added to aid the user.
Origins - to some extent - and Odyssey - to a much larger extent - do away with the large set pieces and scripted new ways of approaching situations. Odyssey, in fact, doesn’t include any real setpieces where gameplay can be altered in any fun ways, making all events happen in natural gameplay. Every battle is just another 300 man fight. Every assassination is just another cultist in the world. All of this was done in service to the points of interest. They now have replaced all Romulus lairs, Borgia towers, Leonardo machines, etc with a question mark on the map. The vast majority of which contain the same objectives “kill X# of person at Y rank” or “Open X number of chests”. People in the past would complain so much over the “pointless collectibles”, but rather than improve on them, they’ve been relegated to becoming necessary to gain xp while not adding meaning and removing other side content. The amount of repetition is insane.
Origins at least had the decency to make every location unique. While each one still broadly belonged to a possibility of bandit camp, military fort, or animal den, each location felt unique. In the end, while some of the forts were fun, the PoI were padding. The number of locations wasn’t obscene in origins though, clocking in with about 400 locations and 125 missions in the base game. Odyssey increases this to 600 locations and 300 side quests while removing set pieces. What follows is a very repetitive game that many fans have criticized for getting bored from due to the grind, and understandable sentiment when the vast majority of the game is focused on completing the same core objective 600 times. Unlike Origins, Odyssey ends up trying to take the easy way out, with many (noticeable) instances of exact same camp layouts appearing throughout the world. Origins and Odyssey end up showing a scary ideology, that bigger is always better, and quantity is more important than quality.
These issues are compounded by the damage the PoI do to exploration. Odyssey's map unlocks when locationa are in a 400-500 meter radius (I single out Odyssey as I forget the distance for Origins). Both Origins and Odyssey very closely live by the “rule of 40” a principle that you want something to happen every 40 seconds or so to keep the player engaged. So every 40 seconds they should find a new bandit camp. Well, this just happens to fall perfectly in the distances between locations being every 500 meters. So now we just beeline between every location, with no reason to explore in between. We know that nothing lies in the middle. All the big enemies, loot, exp, and chests are in forts and camps, meaning we just need to keep beelining. While doing this though, we don’t even need to touch the controller anymore. We set the location on the map, press a button and our pegasus horse is running through the forest for us for the next 40 seconds until we see another small bandit camp. Odyssey doesn’t contain exploration, it contains mindless traveling.
How to Fix It
If Ashraf is the creative director as speculated, I’d believe he could fix the problems caused under the system due to his clear admiration and inspiration he’s mentioned from Zelda Breath of the Wild. Many gamers often cite BotW and Red Dead Redemption 2 as having amazing worlds. Despite the narrative issues in the most recent Zelda title, the world was beautiful and a joy to get lost exploring in, causing many gamers to lose hundreds of hours searching every nook and cranny of Hyrule. While I have not played the acclaimed Red Dead Redemption 2 (yet), it’s often cited for having a stunning handcrafted environment. Interestingly, neither title hits that “rule of 40”. If I remember correctly, BotW was close to 60 seconds, and RDR2 was nearly 120 seconds, yet both are critically acclaimed. Neither uses the type of PoI system AC has, instead of with important locations and fast travel points only appearing on your map after unlocking them.
We know open-world games can work without them, so I think that’s what should be tried in the next AC. Remove the question marks altogether and remove the constant repetitive bandit (or I guess Pict and Viking?) camps. This doesn’t mean we can’t still have a few castles, abandoned Roman Forts, and town scattered about, but make players find them themselves using exploration and viewpoints. Viewpoints should no longer just upgrade your eagle’s vision either, returning to form and unlocking areas of land on your map. Make the player still have to manually find each town though, and each quest by interacting with people rather than exclamation marks everywhere. I think the other really important part is to scale down a tiny bit, and handcraft the world again. Don’t use and AI alone to construct the environment. AC3’s frontier manages to be enjoyable to explore because it maintains the use of parkour. Use the natural forests of Scandinavia and England to your advantage, and let us climb trees again to explore (and not just on horseback), find birds-eye views, and scope out enemy forts from afar and above using our character. I’d also say that we should cut the eagle altogether, trading it for a Viking spyglass (which yes, may have been a thing due to crystals having been worked into lens optimal for proto-telescopes found in Visby).
The point of all of that is to put a re-emphasis on players exploring for themselves, and building experiences rather than experience points. Let the level building exp come from killing enemies (maybe add more stealth bonuses), and completing quests. Most importantly, reward players for going out of their way to find something. Maybe a mid-sized castle in Wales that the player will never be brought to actually contains one of the best swords in a hidden chest. But don’t telegraph that to the player. Let us figure it out for ourselves. Secrets like this also then have the potential of sparking greater community engagement, just like the original Legend of Zelda did over 30 years ago.
Kingdom/ Ragnarok has the potential to be great but needs to fix these pain points found within the current formula or risk burning out fans.

[BoTW] Guide: How to Prepare for Adventuring - Farming Rupees/Food/Arrows/Bows/Weapons

Guide: How to Prepare for Adventuring -

Farming Rupees/Food/Dishes/Arrows/Bows/Weapons
 
Cross-Post: This is a cross post from Breath_of_the_Wild. I know not everyone may frequent both sub's, so I thought I would post this here as well in order for everyone to have the opportunity to take advantage of the information below.
 
Purpose of this Guide:
This guide aims to be a compendium of information about how to stock up and get ready for the scale of this game. There is simply so much to explore that if you are not prepared before heading off into a random direction, you may not survive or be able to reach where you are going. The information below helps the up and coming adventurer gear up and become ready for anything (without having to spoil too much of the game). This is something I wish I could have found when I first stepped foot off the Plateau, so hopefully it'll help some of you out. That being said, even a seasoned adventurer may find use in some of the insights below (especially farming techniques) so don't think there isn't something for everyone here!
 
SPOILER WARNING
This guide covers certain areas within the game you will need to visit, and a few minor side quest spoilers. Please read at your own risk, but I promise this post will have no major storyline spoilers. Call me out if it does and I'll edit the post immediately.
 
NOTE: This post also assumes you have made it off the Plateau and are ready to explore the world. If you are still on the Plateau please stop reading now.
 
 
 

Step 1: Get Some Wheels

Find A Horse & Register it at a Stable
 
Horses allow you to speedily make your way through the world during the time where you can't Fast Travel from location to location. The first thing you should do before trying to find said Fast Travel locations is tame a horse.
Horses can be found out in the wild, normally grassy plains areas, and can be tamed by sneaking up on them and mounting them. Once you have mounted a horse, you will need to rapidly tap the "soothe" button until little red hearts appear around the horses head. This means the horse has stopped trying to buck you off. Taming a horse takes stamina, so be sure to have a full bar or something to refill you stamina on hand. Normal horses will take less than a single circle of stamina to tame. More exotic horses will take much more.
Once you can successfully steer the horse, continue to "soothe" it as you bring it to a nearby stable. Once near a stable, Z-Target the stable owner and choose to talk to them. Ask them to register your horse for a price of 20 Rupee's. Once registered, horses can be taken or stored from any stable across the land. Use this to Fast Travel and retrieve your horse in a completely different location.
 
You can feed your horse things such as apples or carrots to improve your "relationship" with them after you have registered them. From what I can tell one apple or one carrot will add 10 to the meter you can see when choosing which horse to take from the stable. It's a quick way to instantly max out the relationship status so you don't have to deal with it disobeying during your travels.
Feeding them Endura Carrots can also give them an extra one time use spur when galloping. I managed to get three extra spurs on one horse for a total of six. These extra ones disappear as soon as they are used though so use them wisely. A special thanks to user u/Leshiarelaohk for his insight into feeding horses!
 
Also, you can customize your horse's look (mane, tail, bridle, and saddle) by talking to the NPC tending the stabled horses at any stable. NOTE: the bond with your horse must be high. Credit to u/Nick_0f_Time for his original post found HERE.
 
 
For those interested, the horse with the highest stamina in the game can be found extremely close to the Plateau. This would be an ideal starter horse while you are trying to uncover more portions of your map.
To find this horse, make your way off the Plateau North West of Hopper Pond and take the pathway west. When the path splits, take the right path which will lead you to the Outskirt Stable. Once there, talk to an old man outside the stable mumbling about a white horse. He will give you a side quest to find and tame said horse. The horse can be located just north west of the stable on Safula Hill. A Gif of the location can be found HERE.
Look for an all-white horse near the run down structure to the north portion of Safula Hill. It will take more than a single circle to tame this horse, so bring something that restores stamina. I suggest a cooked Staminoka Bass easily found in the lake next to riverside stable. Or if you are just coming from the Plateau, try cooking a Staminilla Mushroom with other mushrooms. The more stamina refilling ingredients in the dish, the more stamina the cooked dish will restore.
 
The White Horse has the following stats:
Strength * * * * -
Speed * * * - -
Stamina * * * * *
 
Having MAX stamina on your first horse is clutch. Just food for thought.
 
 

Step 2: Find Your Way

Complete the World Map
 
In order to efficiently use this guide, you will need be able to find where you need to go. The best way to do this is to complete the game's world map. You do so by visiting the Towers in each "blacked out" portion of your map.
The beauty of this game is that you can do ALL THE THINGS as soon as you make it off the Plateau, you just have to be brave enough. (Or quick enough to run past encounters and B-line it to a tower) Personally, the first thing I did was mark all of the towers on my map that I could see from on top of the Plateau, then paraglided/ran/climbed to said towers, and then looked for more. Rinse and repeat until the entire map is completed.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO THIS IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO. Having a completed map just makes it easier to fast travel to different locations, and enables you to easily identify locations in this guide by name when looking at your in game map.
 
 
If you DO NOT wish to complete your map, the towers and locations you will NEED to visit for this guide are:
This is where you will find the Wasteland Tower. It is located South West of the Great Plateau.
 
  • Ridgeland Tower
  • Wasteland Tower
  • Woodland Tower
  • Faron Tower
  • Riverside Stable
    • Wahgo Katta Shrine for Fast Travel
    • LOCATION: Image or GIF
  • Kakariko Village
    • Ta'Loh Naeg Shrine for Fast Travel
    • LOCATION: Image or GIF
  • Hateno Village
    • Myahm Agana Shrine for Fast Travel
    • LOCATION: Image or GIF
 
 
 

Step 3: Get Deeper Pockets

Expand Your Inventory So You Can Hold More Weapons / Bows / Shields
 
Since you have already expanded your world a little bit, you have most likely run across a large Korok named Hestu. Hestu is the NPC that will take the Korok seeds you have been collecting/discovering throughout the game. He will trade you more inventory slots in exchange for Korok Seeds.
You will need a larger inventory space if you want to start your adventuring with items already in hand. If you usually head out with just a pot lid, you can skip this part.
 
HESTU LOCATIONS:
Encounter Location Map Image Map GIF Hestu Image Description
First South East of Kakariko Village & Pillars of Levia Image GIF Image Hestu can first be found on the pathway leading to Kakariko Village. You should organically run into him on your way to discovering Kakariko Village. He will move from here after you have upgraded your inventory twice.
Second Next to Riverside Stable (Between Whistling Hill and Batrea Lake) Image GIF Image Hestu will be found just outside the area of the Riverside Stable. He will move from this location after you have upgraded your inventory another 5ish times.
Third Korok Forest north of Hyrule Castle & through the Lost Woods Image GIF Image This will be the final resting place of Hestu. You can upgrade your inventory with him as long as you continue to find Korok Seeds.
 
 
To completely upgrade your inventory, you will only need 441/900 possible Korok Seeds. If you have already used Hestu, you will know he requires more Korok Seeds for each additional inventory slot upgrade. See the cost breakdown below:
 
HESTU COST BREAKDOWN:
Upgrade Number Weapons Bows Shields
1 1 1 1
2 2 2 2
3 3 3 3
4 5 5 4
5 8 8 5
6 12 12 10

Step 4: Become Top Chef

Finding / Farming “Must Have” Food Ingredients & Cooking the Best Dishes
 
Food is extremely important in this game. And you can use/consume just about anything you find to heal or get some sort of buff. However, I believe the right ingredients & best recipes are THE most important part of using consumables in Breath of the Wild.
 
Before I get into detailed theory and explanations, you first need to know some basics about consumables, cooking, and inventory management.
 
  • Consumables found in the wild will re-grow / re-spawn.
    • If an item grows out of the ground or off of a tree, it can re-grow after a certain period of in-game time. This time can, and usually is, shorter than the next Blood Moon.
    • Example: Apples on trees
    • If an item doesn't "grow" and isn't strictly found inside a treasure chest, it will re-spawn after a Blood Moon.
    • Example: Ore deposits
  • Adding more of an item into a dish adds more of the buff that item yields.
    • Example: a dish of 1 apple restores less hearts than a dish of 5 apples
  • Cooking any dish that uses an "overfill" ingredient automatically fully restores your base stamina/heart values.
    • Example: By using an ingredient where the informational text indicates it will provide a temporary "yellow" heart, a dish of just that ingredient will fill all of your red hearts first before giving you the temporary heart. It doesn't matter if you have 3 red hearts or 20, that dish made up of just 1 ingredient will refill ALL of your red hearts. Same goes for stamina.
  • You have a limited number of inventory spaces for cooked items that can never be expanded.
    • You are allotted 3.5 pages of cooked dishes in your inventory, credit to u/Cyndikate
  • Dishes you cook in the pot each take up a single inventory space.
    • This is important for managing inventory space.
  • Items you cook over an open flame stack in your inventory.
    • (only take up a single inventory space no matter how many you make/pick up)
  • Items cooked over an open flame heal less than their “dish” counterpart and do not provide buffs
    • Example: A cooked pepper (or a pepper as part of a dish) heals and adds a cold resist buff, whereas a scorched pepper cooked over an open flame only heals less and provides no buff.
  • Items cooked over an open flame can over-cook and disappear.
    • Example: You can drop an apple on a fire and it will catch flame and change into a toasted apple. If that same apple is left on the fire it will catch flame again and eventually disappear.
  • You can sort cooked food by type and level of buff/restore in your inventory.
    • By pressing “Y” (on the switch) you can sort each of your inventory types. For food, this will arrange by buff type first and by power second.
 
 
Below are my personal Core Values when it comes to consumables in this Game. Each value is followed by my justification / theory behind it. Please feel free to adopt them. Or don't. It won't hurt my feelings at all. Really.
 
  1. All of the ingredients I use should be easy to gather & plentiful.
    • If an item is rare to find, why the hell would I used it in a regular elixir to restore 5ish hearts? The hoarder in me knows someday, for some reason, I'm going to need that one special ingredient. So instead of wasting potentially valuable items, why not use what princess nature so abundantly provides? Why waste specialized mushrooms or animal parts to make a stamina elixir when I can just cook a single Staminoka Bass and it will restore a full circle of stamina? There is always something that is the best at what it does and can be found frequently in the wild.
  2. Everything I cook should be medium to high level, or it should fully maximize the potential gains.
    • Remember that one time you spotted a tower at the top of a mountain, made it all the way to the top, and realized it was too cold to stay there and finish activating the tower? Me too. It was on that day that I swore NEVER to die from the cold again. Until that other time where I DID have a cold resist dish, but it was low level and I STILL died of cold because I went even higher into the snowy region this time. On THAT day I swore to only carry medium to high level dishes/elixirs. If the dish I create can't handle ALL of the possible scenarios I will need the buff/resist for, then why waste the ingredients? If I simply added a little more of the same ingredient I could have survived that fateful night on the snowy mountaintop. Low level dishes are for low level risk. Be willing to take the big risks adventurer.
  3. Stamina is Stamina and Hearts are Hearts. Don't mix gains within the same dish.
    • Specialize with your recipes, don't just throw things in and have a portion of your dish that doesn't matter. Say you've been upgrading only your stamina at the beginning of the game. You now have 2 full stamina circles but still only have 3 hearts. So now you want to make sure you can refill that big stamina meter, so you add more things to your dishes. What you end up with is something that refills two stamina circles and restores 15 hearts. That's a lot of wasted healing on your 3 heart self. Why not just use stamina ingredients and make stamina dishes and cook some apples to make dishes that refill up to 3 hearts? Waste not my brave adventurer. Keeping your heart refilling recipes focused on hearts and your stamina replenishing recipes focused on stamina.
  4. Prioritize "overfill" healing rather than "x" number of refilled hearts.
    • Remember the cooking tidbit above about items that overfill either hearts or stamina inherently having the ability to completely restore all of your base stamina or hearts? Use this to you advantage. Cook a single overfill item and you have a full-restore dish. Use this instead of cooking 5 ingredients and still not refilling your entire health. Waste not my brave adventurer.
  5. Have one of every buff type on hand at all times, but only cook particular buffs when I know I'll need them.
    • Remember the story of my icy death earlier. If I had been prepared, that wouldn't have happened. Always be prepared. (Insert Boy/Girl Scout joke here) Nothing is worse than setting your sights on some treasure chest or mountain you want to climb that is NO WHERE NEAR a shrine, only to realize you won't survive within 100 yards without a certain resist or buff. Always having a medium to high dish for each of the resist and buff types allows you to have complete freedom of exploration. That being said, don't go crazy and carry 10 cold resist dishes. Remember, you only have a certain number of inventory slots for dishes. In all likelihood the 7-10 minutes of resist from the one dish you always carry on you is enough to get you where you need to go, or give you enough time to escape from where you've already been. The only caveat to this point is that if you know you're going to spend the afternoon on the snowy mountain tops, you may want to prep a little bit more for cold resist. Make a few extra and head on your way.
 
 
BEST INGREDIENT FARMING RUNS
The top three ingredients/recipes/dishes/buffs that everyone wants to farm are:
  1. Basic Healing Items - things to restore your red hearts
  2. Overfill Healing Items - things to add yellow hearts to your health
  3. Stamina Refilling Items - things to refill your stamina when it's low
 
Below are the easiest / fastest / most rewarding farming methods to accomplish the three items above:
  1. Basic Healing Items
    • Raw Prime Meat Farming (Deer Hunt Mini-game) - Raw Prime Meat can be cooked over an open flame to create Seared Prime Steak, which heals for 2 1/4 red hearts. These items also stack in your inventory and only take up one slot. You can farm 5-10 of these per minute utilizing the Deer Hunt Mini-game in Hateno Village.
    • Video Guide: Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Infinite Raw Prime Meat Farming (10/minute!)
  2. Overfill Healing Items
    • Hearty Durian Farming (+20 Yellow Hearts) - x5 Hearty Durians can be cooked in a pot to create Hearty Simmered Fruit, which fully restores your red hearts and provides an extra 20 yellow hearts. These items are found right next to the Faron tower and can be easily farmed every 5-6 in game days. You can farm 5-15 of these per run.
    • Video Guide: Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Hearty Durian Farming (Easy +20 Yellow Hearts!)
  3. Stamina Refilling Items
    • Staminoka Bass Farming (Full Wheel Stamina Refill with Each Fish) - a single Staminoka Bass can be cooked in a pot to create an Energizing Fish Skewer, which fully restores an entire stamina wheel. These can be abundantly found in the river next to the Riverside Stable and have an incredibly quick respawn rate. You can farm 20+ of these in a 5-10 minute farming run.

The lists above will continue to expand as I explore the game. If you have anything you think would be a good addition to the tables above, comment below and I will incorporate them.
 
 
 

Step 5: Stock Up on Ammo

Farming Unlimited Regular Arrows
 
Starting out in this game, arrows are hard to come by. You usually pick up 3-5 every time you bait a bow wielding enemy. I'm here to help you alleviate that pain. If you follow the directions below, you can farm 200 regular arrows every 10 minutes. This farm can be done as long as you want, so if you want 10,000 arrows there's nothing stopping you from being THAT guy.
If you exit Kakariko Village via the Western exit (GIF of the location) it will take you to the Sahasra Slope. In this open field you will ALWAYS run into two horse riding enemies. These enemies will continuously circle you and fire arrows. The key point here is that these arrows can ALWAYS be picked up off the ground. The combination of their low grade bows, the soft grass, and the distance that they circle you allows their arrows to hit the ground, not break, and become available to be picked up.
The farming method here is to simply walk (DO NOT SPRINT. Sprinting causes you to get hit more often or have the enemies back away and stop firing.) in a circle from arrow to arrow as they hit the ground. You can pick them up as they fall for an infinite amount of time.
 
THE YIELD FOR THIS FARMING METHOD IS 200 ARROWS EVERY 10 MINUTES.
 
NOTE - This method may not work on the Wii U. The Wii U may have a hard cap to the number of arrows any enemy can put into the world to be picked up. There have been conflicting reports on this subject, but I say try it out and see if it works for you!

Step 6: Get Paid

Farming Rupees - All Current Best Methods
 
 
  • Lurelin Village (Cloyne) Gambling - Save Exploit
    • DESCRIPTION: Head South East to the Lurelin Village (Yah Rin Shrine for Fast Travel) and find a hut with Cloyne sitting in it. This is the gambling house. Here you can bet 100 Rupees for a 1/3 chance at getting 300 Rupees. The trick here is to save before each time you bet, and if you don't find the 300 reload your save.
    • DIFFICULTY: Medium
    • YIELD: 100 per minute (RNG Based average)
    • VIDEO GUIDE: Zelda - Breath of the Wild - Early Game Rupee Farming by South Rage Gaming
 
 
  • Deer Farming Mini-game
    • DESCRIPTION: This method requires a lot of arrows and a few decent bows, so there's a trade off on items for money. Head East to Hateno Village (Ancient Tech Lab for Fast Travel). Find Dantz at the farm at the top of the village and start the Deer Hunt Mini-game. Here you can farm 5-10 Raw Prime Meats per minute. 5 of these meats can be cooked to create a dish that sells for 210 Rupees.
    • DIFFICULTY: Hard
    • YIELD: 210 per minute
    • VIDEO GUIDE: Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Infinite Raw Prime Meat Farming (10/minute!)
 
 
 

Step 7: Find a Place to Lay Your Head

Buy a House to Store Items, Rest in a Free Bed, and Always Have a Lit Cooking Stove
 
In Hateno Village, there is an abandoned house that is being demolished when you first find it. If you make your way through a series of tasks (mostly paying people to do things) you can acquire this house and use it to hold weapons, bows, and shields. There is also a free bed inside you can rest at, and an always lit cooking pot outside. This is a great investment early on in the game.
 
How to Buy the House:
  1. Find the house. It is located South of the center of Hateno Village. See this image for a more precise location.
  2. Go around back and find the NPC Bolson. He will be the guy in pink.
    • NOTE: Sometimes Bolson has moved from this initial location if you have started another side quest. He can be found in Tarry Town. Complete the side quest that brought him there and he'll come back to Hateno Village.
  3. Pay Bolson 3,000 Rupees and 30 bundles of wood.
  4. YOU OWN AN EMPTY HOUSE!
  5. Upgrade your house by paying Bolson 100 Rupees per upgrade. You can upgrade your house with the following:
    • Two extra Weapon Mounts
    • Three Bow Mounts
    • Three Shield Mounts
    • Bed Installation
    • Lighting Installations
    • Door Installation
    • A Sign with Link's Name
    • A Flowerbed
    • Trees
    • The cost for everything listed above combined is 1,400 Rupees.
 
 
Use your new found abode to store rare items you find in game by placing them on the displays inside. Anything simply dropped on the floor of your house will eventually disappear. That being said, this is still a great base of operations where you can cook, sleep, and store your most precious belongings.
 
 
 

Step 8: Gear Up

Finding / Farming Easily Obtainable Yet Strong Weapons
 
All weapons that aren't from a treasure chest will respawn after a Blood Moon. Knowing where a couple of these respawning weapons are located can help you gear up fast. Below is a list of the best weapons you can easily farm every Blood Moon:

BONUS: Adventure Pro Tips

A Compendium of PSA's to Become a Better Adventurer
 
Below is a list of PSA's and General Tips to maximize your quality of life in Breath of the Wild:
 
  • If you don't already have your complete map unlocked, you can use the online version found HERE made & maintained by IGN
  • You can trade the heart containers for stamina containers and stamina containers for heart containers. See u/yust's post about it HERE. The shrine to do this is located southwest of Hateno Village. Specifically HERE (picture coming soon).
  • How to ensure you have completed and found all of the treasure in a shrine:
    • A shrine will become completely blue if you have claimed the Spirit Orb within. (Usually starts with a little bit of yellow on both the physical shrine and the shrine's icon on your map once you have discovered and activated a shrine)
    • When you select a shrine on you map, if a small treasure chest icon appears to the right of a shrine's name you have found all of the treasure chests / loot within said shrine.
  • You can drop bombs while paragliding. Activate the bomb rune, and enjoy carpet bombing enemies!
  • Take rust off of weapons by throwing them into the mouth of a Rock Octorok. The Octorok will spit out the rust free version of the weapon. Credit to u/panqakee's original post found HERE.
  • The Blood Moon will respawn all Guardians inside shrines. Use this knowledge to farm harder to find Ancient Materials or Guardian Weapons.
  • If an enemy shoots and arrow at your wooden shield, it will stick to your shield. Stow your shield to add those arrows to your inventory.
  • If you find a pinwheel in the world, this is a Korok mini-game. Find something to stand on, or stand in the right position and balloons you need to shoot will appear.
  • You can use a picture from your compendium in combination with your Sheikah Slate's upgraded sensor to find harder to find items such as: treasure chests, certain types of fish, rare but powerful ingredients, etc.
  • Aim your bow in air to slow down time and aim precisely. Similar to VATS without all the detail.
  • You can reflect Guardian blasts with ANY shield as long as you time the swinging of your shield correctly. (Yes, even a pot lid will work. See: the legendary Pot Lid Larry)
  • Bonus stats from dishes or elixirs do not stack. EXAMPLE: you can't use two 1 minute cold resist elixirs to get 2 minutes of cold resistance. The same goes for multiple types of stat bonuses. You only keep the stats bonus of the last consumed dish/elixir.
  • Don't use axes or other weapons to chop down trees, use your bombs. One bomb = Tree down. Second bomb = collectable wood. Really, just use bombs for all things that need to be destroyed. (ore deposits [not if they are on a mountain side since the resulting items will most certainly fall], fish, crates/barrels, metal containers, the courage of your enemies, etc.)
  • You can Travel mid combat/falling/paragliding. At any moment, you can Fast Travel out of a situation. Use this to get out of encounters you are not equipped to deal with.
  • If you tip over one of the broken down ancient guardians, there are ancient parts underneath. Credit to u/youhoe for his original post found HERE.
  • The Stasis Tool can also be used to highlight collectables in your general vicinity. While farming have it active to see interactable objects in a bright yellow glow. You must temporarily turn it off to collect the items.
  • You can catch fairies and keep them in your inventory. They will resurrect you if you die, as they did in previous games. You can catch them around the Great Fairy fountains. New fairies in the wild will not spawn if you have 3 of more in your inventory. Therefore, you can have a total of 6 at a single time (2 already in your inventory and then discover 4 at once in the wild). Credit to PaztheSpaz for the clarification.
  • Don't waste your fire arrows unless you have to. Equip your bow and walk by a lit fire. The arrow tip lights. Use this to set off red barrels or light your target ablaze.
  • There are separate cooldown timers for the round and square bombs. Use this to your advantage, especially when you upgrade them. Throw a bomb, switch to the other type, throw it, switch, throw, switch... Credit to user u/zombiegamer723.
  • Brand new weapons have a small sparkle in the top right corner. This means the item is unused and is at full durability. Credit to user u/TogTogTogTog.
  • Arrows can be used as unlimited torches as well. They will go out after a short while but they wont burn up like a wooden weapon and u can just relight it. Keep the arrow notched and use your aim to light things on fire like leaves and other torches or stand next to ice to melt it. Credit to u/mcunderpants.
