Because you break the weapon with a sneak strike you could also use a gibdo bone for maximum damage, then its 178 base damage * 2 for break * 1.5 for attack * 1.8 for bone prof. * 1.05 two-handed bonus * 8 for sneakstrike = 8074,08 which the game round up for a total of 8075 damage in a single hit. Enough to oneshot calamity ganon in botw if he could be sneakstriked

So in Breath of the Wild, sneak strikes did not stack with the breaking hit because both are considered critical hits. The same goes for the triple damage from smacking a frozen enemy. Honestly, the game in general would greatly benefit from being more transparent with its number crunching, and that applies to all games, not just this one.

It turns out the damage numbers are a little misleading as there's a hidden multiplier depending on whether you're using a one-handed, two-handed, or a spear. (100% for one-handed, two-handed are 105%, and spears are 75%) This is likely why the Champion Leathers don't display health numbers Red Bokoblins have 25 health. you'll need a spear with 34 damage to one-shot Red Bokoblins, 25 for one handed, and 24 for two-handed.

I can't say this enough but THANK YOU so much for turning the arrow attack white range down. You are the only KZreadr who I've seen do this (and genuinely care for/about) for their photosensitive viewers and I (among others) really appreciate it.

A super usable sneak weapon would be a pristine eightfold blade with attack +10 (25) + molduga jaw (32)=57. With full Evil spirit armor, you get sneak lvl 3 bone prof, and you can eat an attack up 3 meal. This gives you 57*1.5*1.8=154, and whatever the multiplier is for the eightfold blade passive ability with a sneakstrike. I would love to find out the final damage number if anyone knows what that multiplier is. My guess is sneakstrike is x8 and the passive ability is x2 which would make it x16. If so, final damage number would be 2462. That would be insane, but since you're doing sneak strikes, using a gibdo bone (if you have the stock) would be viable since you have time to actually fuse one everytime you use it. Edit: did some testing and even with a decayed eightfold blade attack +10 I am one-shotting Silver Boss Bokoblins which have 1200 hp. Set up was eightfold molduga jaw for a total 48 damage, evil spirit armor (1.8) and a sneak strike. 48*1.8=86.4 and 86.4*16=1382.4…. 1200/86.4 is 13.89 so the passive ability is doing at least x14 damage. This is without an attack up lvl 3 meal and to my knowledge boss boko and captain 4 are the highest hp enemies you can sneak strike both have 1200 hp so you can 1 shot any monster with an eightfold blade and molduga jaw as long as the base damage is 42 👍

The lightscale trident is a better everyday weapon that doesn't limit your armor. With sidon's ability and a sylver horn, you get 154, 231 with attack up.

Hey Austin, great video as always! I was doing some experimenting with the bone proficiency, and apparently you can get the royal guard claymore on low durability AND have the gibdo bone attached at the same time. When you try and wear a claymore down and then attach the bone, it brings it out of low durability, but if you fuse something like a bokoblin horn to it, then bring it down to low durability, then destroy the fused material, then attach the gibdo bone, you will be on low durability and have the highest damage bone fuse possible at 178 base damage with a + 10 attack pristine royal guard claymore base. Obviously only useful for Lynels but it should provide higher attack than the molduga jaw!

Another brilliant video of many🥳 Keep up the great work Austin !!!

this is why i wait for the ajp video, none of the other youtubers explained that it was the "on break" damage, they just thought it was extra damage. for some reason the lynel mounting still counts it even though the weapon isnt breaking. always more comprehensive than the others.

Unless the formula has changed from BotW, I think you got some things wrong here. Sneak strikes (and hitting frozen enemies) did not stack with other critical actions like headshots or breaking your weapon. Sneak strikes instead become the only critical modifier in the formula. Also, BotW bone proficiency applied to bone and dragon bone weapons, not just stal arms. Source: Croton's video What is the Maximum Possible Damage in Breath of the Wild

It would be nice to include the other damage multipliers like hot/cold/thunder attack boost, desperate strength, water warrior, improved flurry rush, etc.

Loooool. With your guide lynels are becoming so easy! You arrive in bullet time mode, one round of hits and you're done! Thanks for the tips.

One thing to add, especially in the context of Sneakstrikes, the Eightfold weapons double the damage of Sneakstrike so instead of a 8x multiplier, it's 16x. A pristine Eightfold Longblade (with +10 Attack) + Molduga Jaw = 65 base power (not as high as the RGC's 81 base power before entering the breaking state, but stay with me here). 65 x 1.5 x 1.8 x 16 for Sneakstrike = 2,808 damage, which is 1.6 times more powerful than the RGC (pre-breaking point), a 60% increase in damage from the RGC. And this is without having to worry about your weapon being in low durability. When the Eightfold Longblade does break, it will deal 5,616 damage. Not as high as the final hit of the RGC being just under 7,000, but you're dealing more damage in the long run over the lifespans of each weapon since the RGC will only deal more damage than the Eightfold blade in Sneakstrikes during its last 3 hits of durability.

It is not a bone. Colgera is an insect and its jaw is just a normal insects jaw which is not bone.

From my testing (same bow with gibdo bones) the fierce deity did consitently more damage than the phantom armor so either the bone proficiency only counts the gibdo bone not the arrow or the multipliers have changed Also if i remember correctly the 2x on the last hit was for the guaranteed crit multiplier in botw which gets overwritten by the sneak strike multiplier so the very last hit with a sneak strike should not do more damage than the 2 before that

Tested the same (royal guard claymore as a base), fierce diety with lynel sword, fierce deity with molduga hammer, radiant with lynel sword, and radiant with molduga hammer, and fierce deity with lynel blade consistently did more damage

​@@j189512 that is to be expected from the calcs austin did in the video Only lynel plus atk up is superior to only molduga plus bone prof The advantage comes from the ability to stack the multipliers The real detail to be tested is which buff actually effects which part (for me for example the bone prof only seems to effet the fuse part of the arrow not the complete damage of the shot) I think for weapons it is at least is the complete weapon but stacking the buffs requires you to eat food every time you go into a fight Also unteated as of know and my knowledge Do multishot bows actually multiply the effect of the fuse material or are there hidden nerfs (in botw for example the multi bomb was nerfed so heavily bomb arrows actually did more damage if shot from a single shot bow if the arrows connected while the explosions which did not connect still were calculated singular so by missing the target the multishot could do more damage and so on)

from what i read you didn't use attack up food buff. without it fierce deity will deal more damage. it is food buff and bone proficiency which make it deal great damage not just bone proficiency. Even if it only applies to molduga jaw or gibdo bones, it is still going to deal more damage than fierce deity with silver lynels weapons along with all food buffs.

You are like my only hope for guides tysm for making these❤

and evil spirit has sneak lvl 3, which make it even better to sneak attack. that's nice, ty for the tips! i didn't actually know what are the multipliers of everything lol. also very thoughtful of you for the flashing image stuff, rare are people who think about that, even for someone who doesn't have issues with that, it is very tireing for the eyes, so win win to have added that imo

The lightscale trident will double its power when wet, so you can have WAY more hits at full multiplier

Hi, From what I have read bone proficiency does not affect bones attached to arrows. Because you were hitting the lynel on the head he is actually taking double damage

@HerMi.T

Жыл бұрын

no, it does work on bone attached to arrows, you have wrong information. Bone Proficiency only applies to bones not bows damage. So weapons along with Bone Proficiency and Attack up of 3rd level create the strongest arrows. The misleading calculation austin did was multiplying Bone Profieciency to whole weapon instead of only gibdo bones. Attack up on the other hand applies to whole weapon.

@@HerMi.T after further research it seem that OP was correct. Bone weapons and bows receive the bone proficiency bonus but arrow with fused bone material do no receive the bonus. As such a dragonbone boko bow would actually be the strongest bow

Great info!! I'm using the best overall combo I found: shiny gerudo sword/cimitar of the seven + silver lynel horn =140 damage

Thank you for being the first to explain the thumbnail thing i new what was happening but i see it all the time now and you are the first to say what it actually was

Nice tips! Just want to add more to the bow section. If you do a bow modifier transfer from a savage lynel bow (5x shot) to a demon king's bow (assuming you have 30 hearts so it has base damage of 60) and with attack up +3 (x1.5) and bone proficiency (x1.8), shooting it with Gibdo bone (+40) and critical shot (x2) will give you a damage of (60+40)x5x1.8x1.5x2=2700 per shot.

Well... looks like I better figure out where that armor is now lol. Thank you for this lesson.

Could you do a video on everything you need to know about using the master sword?

You can also stack freeze on top for another 3x. Throw a boomerang with freeze out before initiating the sneak attack, since the animation is long, when you land the sneak the freeze would’ve happened. That would bring your damage over 20k

That works?

there is a theoretical possibility to do 1620 dmg with multiple use. The demon kings bow does +2 damage for every heart you have (not counting the extra ones from food) so if you are to get the max hearts which is 40, the bow would do 80 damage. If you add the gibdo bone the arrow would deal 120 damage. If you do the weapon effect duplication glitch to get 5-shot it will do 600 damage. The radiant and evil spirit armor give bone proficiency, which is a 1.8 times multiplier which equals to 1080 damage. An attack up meal gives a 1.5 times boost which the bow will now do 1620 damage. although this seems correct it is all hypothetical so sorry if I am wrong.

Super informative. Love all your videoa. In Breath of the Wild the Phantom Ganon outfit plus dragonbone moblin club (50+ damage) was an awesome combo with attack up food. Fly directly at a Lynel with max stamina and all those equipped, get some head shots in from a high power bow to stun him and knock some HP off. Land directly behind him, replenish stamina, then wail away with the dragonbone club on his 2 back legs from the middle. He doesn't know what's hapening. You get double hits each circluar swing of the club with one on each leg and he's dead before he knows what happens. If he moves either left or right to try to see you, just go the opposite way whilst hitting him. Works every time after a few practices. Ditto for Hinox. Sort of cheating but I'm rubbish with combat!

I’ll keep one in the back for Lynels. Thanks Austin

the gerudo weapons give a serious boost when you fuse something to it aswell

Keep up the awesome work Austin John! While your videos do not come out the quickest, I see a lot of time and effort goes into researching what you do put out and I appreciate that! You deliver clear and concise info and the gaming community is better for what you contribute.

You can also use trident as base and get wet which may be less powerfull than one hit claymore but you can actually use your weapon

hey Austin John! what kind of controller are you using in this video? thx! your zelda videos are the best!

Hey so I'm still on patch 1.1, am I a) still able to do this, and B) able to transfer the full damage to MSGnotfound (my glitched early Master Sword) along with the fire/ice/electric glitch (which people have been calling the Avatar Sword) or even just the base Weapon at all?

Can we get a cooking guide for TotK? I've been finding your guides really handy and I would love to see more information about cooking.

Can we all just appreciate how good the background music is for his videos

Thanks Austin

With the pristine Royal Guard Claymore attack up +10 with the lynel horn you get 208 attack power and 162 for the molduga jaw when they’re about to break

What about if you use the Lightscale Trident instead? Since you can use one of the powers to keep yourself in an almost permanent state of being wet so you'd do that x2 damage on top of the bone proficiency & all of that other good stuff.

Nice vid
