A note about the slip resistance buff: Climbing on ice does not receive any benefits from the buff, and you will still slip after roughly 3 seconds of climbing even with a level three buff. The only way to help with not slipping while climbing on ice is to get the slip proof set bonus, which completely negates all slipping, even on ice.

Another thing to note is that, while climbing slips are based on time, the amount of times Link grabs to a surface kinda serve as a visual cue anyways if you don't fancy counting the seconds. You just gotta keep in mind that he can climb at different rates depending on the incline and speed buff so it won't do more than helping with the ballpark

Wait, so there is no Attack Up buff for, say, the Ember Set while in a lava cave? What's the point of it glowing when you're near lava? Each set would be even MORE useless in those environments since, not only do they not provide environmental protection, but all the enemies there are of a similar element, so your fire attack is gonna do less damage to the fire-based enemies!

8:21 the lynels in the floating collsium have a full 360 sight range. If you leave the area, so that they go back to “patrolling mode” and you return and you happen to behind the lynel, they’ll instantly know you are there and starts attacking.

Honestly feels like the mystic armor was supposed to be leveled up at some point, because if it follows the 3 defense armor upgrade path each piece would be 20 defense at level 4, so 60 defense plus the rupee padding, and if there had been a set bonus then whatever that would have been. It’s a shame too because if you get it early, you probably wont have the money to use it, and if you get it later on you’ll have way better armor to choose from.

The fact that it’s called wake wind made my face smile so hard

I assumed the Gloom Attack Resist was (in addition to the fourth ward heart) also reducing gloom based physical attacks by some percent value. It's a really weirdly named effects if it really does nothing to gloom attacks. The elemental attack buffs are also weird. The descriptions on the food items that can give you those buffs specifically mentions your muscles, so it's another weird case if it doesn't effect your physical damage at all.

totk's armour buffs are so interesting to me, and I didn't even know about some of the set bonuses until recently!

One interesting thing I've noticed about climbing in the rain is that jumping, while it does cause a slip, seems to reset the timer for slips during normal climbing. So, if you go a few seconds, then jump/slip, you can start a new bit of climbing with a fresh slip timer and repeat.

@KairuHakubi

@Croton

9 ай бұрын

I likely won't because nearly all of them are self explainable - they just deal double damage when the conditions are met!! There might be some odd quirks about them that could easily be covered separately though - such as knowing all wetness durations for the water buff!

@Nyxael5845

9 ай бұрын

Knight, Gerudo, Royal, Zora and Royal Guard weapons share the same buff of doubling damage in certain conditions. Gerudo grants powerful fusion in exchange for lower durability (you only get +5 fuse durability on top of the base durability of the weapon you are using) to balance it out. Knight weapons will deal double damage if you are on your last heart, making it far stronger than Gerudo weapons in the long run if you manage to avoid getting hit and it provides a high risk high reward scenario. Royal weapons will double your damage when you attack during a Flurry Rush, making it the strongest buff if you can flurry rush consistently Zora Weapons will deal double damage only if you are wet by landing in water or when you splash yourself with a Splash Fruit. This trait synergizes well with Sidon's Vow simce it grants you a water bubble and the game considers you as being wet. Royal Guard weapons deal double damage when they are close to breaking, and on the last hit they will deal x4 the damage, making it extremely devastating against Lynels because weapons do not break if you strike them while mounting them, meaning that it will always deal quadruple damage on each hit.

So glad to see you’re continuing this series for TotK; I watched all of them for BotW. Question, though: Does the “protection” provided by the Mystic armor also protect against environmental damage (i.e., hot/cold weather)? Or is it only for damage taken in combat? (Don’t have my switch at hand to test it myself.) If so, I could see a useful application whereby you where it in the heat/cold if have a fat wallet but no meals available.

The exact values are a bit varied, but typically the helmets will buff their normal attacks by 50%!

another thing on the climbing set bonus, it makes so stamina is used less while jumping, which in turn means you spend the same amount of stamina that you do jumping, as you do climbing normally (you get the same distance) so if you have the set bonus, there is no reason to not always jump

I'm guessing you already have that on your list but a video going over all the weapon and specific buffs would be cool.

The new weather attack buffs are really cool along with their sets. It's such a shame that weather is confined to very specific areas and you still have to manage your temperature. It'd be nice if it could randomly snow or have a day be extra hot anywhere.

6:37 yo that is the craziest fucking thing i've seen in this game and i need to know how to make it

Greetings from the BIG SKY. I studied statistics in college rather extensively. Applying that knowledge to this game is fun to me.

I like to think the stalnox don’t see past the skeleton disguise, but are just really mad that you woke them up

You can convert the gliding speed boost into the paraglider by : Diving into freefall forward > Cancel dive with Sprint button > Take out glider immediately. Repeat when the speed fades away.

Concerning the weather attack up buffs, I did some testing on them and noticed the damage differs based on how you trigger the effect. Finishing the combo string just gets a basic amount of damage, but doing charge attacks does more depending on what level of charge you did. Sadly I'm not sure how I'd go about getting exact numbers, but in the testing I did (using spin attacks with a basic cheap sword and using the level 3 effect so I can do my best to ensure I'm hitting with just the elemental effect), lightning does seem to hit harder than the other 2 as with other uses of the elements, dealing around 25 with a level 1 charge, around 35 with a level 2 charge, and looking to be at least 55 when going all the way for a level 3. Considering the set effect boosts charge rate, I'm pretty sure the idea is to use that to actually pull off level 3 charges midfight and spam aoe blasts.

Equal buffs and debuffs not canceling out doesn't have anything to do with the order the game calculates them, it's just a result of the game stacking stat changes multiplicatively instead of additively. The 20% increase stacked with a 20% decrease results in 120% * 80%, which is 96%. If the game added them, they would cancel out, since it would be 100% + 20% - 20%
