The STATS behind Loot Drops in Breath of the Wild EXPLAINED!!
Ойындар
Looting enemies and objects is a central part to the gameplay of Breath of the Wild - but how exactly do the stats behind drop rates work? Today we will be diving deep into the probability system this game uses to determine how monster and object loot is awarded - to hopefully help you understand this for your future playthroughs!! I hope you all enjoy :)

I had a question for the "your stats questions" series, what are the criteria for a boss bar to appear at the top of the screen? Like with Hinoxes and the six versions of Ganon (including the four blights, Calamity and Dark Beast), for example. I ask because during a stream on Twitch - won't say the name - did a crowd control stream and one of the actions caused Thunderblight to appear and despawn, but the boss bar was still on screen.

As someone who has obtained all the amiibo armors, farming Star fragments to upgrade them all to the max is extremely tedious. Thanks for this vid and for the info on the best way to get them the fastest. I wish there was a special vendor who would appear if you've played over 500 hours and just sell Star fragments, Giant ancient cores, Diamonds, etc. That would be a nice reward for those who've spent a ton of time in this game.

The star fragment rate is interesting. In my first normal playthrough, I never saw a Star Fragment drop from a Lynel. It wasn't until I fought Silver and Gold Lynels in Master Mode that I started getting them. This made me think they were Master Mode exclusive drops other than watching the night sky. I wish I had realized the truth sooner.

I found that you can farm star fragments by warping to Shee Vaneer Shrine at the top of dueling peaks. Go to a flat ledge down below the shrine and set up a camp fire and sleep with wake up time night. (if you stay up near the shrine you will be pestered by Stalkoblins) Then face east with Hateno Tower in your view. Shooting stars will appear between 9:00 PM and 3:30 AM, and they will disappear at 5:00. And they will fall within the direction your camera faces. When you see it fall warp to Hateno Tower and you will almost always be able to paraglide to it from there to get it. It involves some waiting but in an hour you may get ten or so star fragments. And that will be all you would ever need.

Hey Croton! I've had this thought that the Guardians are basically this games version of Beamos. I've had this thought for a while, and when you mentioned the unused Beamos loot table, I decided to tell you about it. I guess the Guardian Scouts would be Armos, if my theory is correct.

One thing I found out on my own was that zora's domain was always a great place to get arrows. Before I used to use fast travel and with every bloodmoon I would fast travel to zoras domain and work my way down. Around 80-120 arrows per run.

Yeah, that's my favorite way of gathering arrows too. Other methods may technically be faster, but they're much more boring.
Everytime I learn about how this game works makes me appreciate it even more. God I love this.
I have a question: In my experience with the game, I had come to the conclusion that defeating an archer enemy without getting hit by their attacks would always reward you with an arrow bundle drop, especially for foes with elemental arrows. Is there any data taking this factor into account, or is this just a misconception based on player experience?
@seamoose9039

From what I've seen, they have to not fire at all to drop arrow bundles, but yeah.

Here’s what I’m thinking: the archer mobs drop arrows when they die because they haven’t used it yet, and I’m thinking they have around 5-13 (just rough estimation). Anyways, so if they don’t shoot at all before you kill them you should get around my rough estimation. I’m not sure about how many arrows they normally have but I never fight so I wouldn’t know but my dad sometimes plays on my account and yeah the quicker he kills the archer mobs the more arrows he gets. I don’t have exact information but those are my results. I think we might be onto something, fellow theorist!

This is a misconception. Enemies have infinite arrows, same with weapons. They don't worry about durability. You can test both of these out by simply letting yourself get shot by an archer enemy. As you can see, no matter how many times they fire, their quiver never runs out, and their bow never breaks. Give an enemy a weapon you have that's near its breaking point and they'll start swinging it and never break it! You can pick it back up after and find it's at the exact same durability as when you last used it. What you see is purely nocebo from selective memory bias (forgot the proper term for the psychological phenomenon, whoops) Just as was explained in the video, enemies that can drop arrows will always drop them according to the table listed. In fact, if you want more arrows that badly... Let them shoot you! The first 5 arrows an enemy fires can be picked back up! Assuming they missed or you blocked it with a wooden shield. Metal and other shield types erase arrows they block into oblivion... No idea why. In earlier versions of the game, this limit used to not exist, so people came up with a way to get infinite arrows by just getting shot by enemies for a while. This only works for normal arrows though, elemental arrows when fired are destroyed on impact, and bomb arrows... Well... Explode. If it's raining though, enemy fired bomb arrows are duds and CAN be picked back up! Neat, huh?
Woo!

After roughly 40 guardian kills the probabilaty to get at least 1 giant ancient core gets boosted to 90% If we take into account that all the legs that you can cut off may also drop it it takes 23 guardians for the same probabilaty after your 18 guardian kills the probabilaty is only 63% without the legs and about 83% with the legs

It also seems like of you finish an archer enemy with a bow shot to they head, they always drop arrows.
So, lorewise, why do Lynels carry Star Fragments? Do they like them and go around picking them up? Or (unlikely but metal) are they born from the meteors?

Hey, I was wondering could you save, then kill and keep loading till you get certain drops?
News flash, lynels are actually lootboxes
Here’s two things that I discovered in breath of the wild: 1. You can chop down those wooden tower things (, sometimes there’s an enemy on top or some bomb barrels, also they’re mostly near our bono pan camp). 2. When a guardian stalker is defeated you can still chop off the legs before it explodes. Bonus: (in my research,) Silver and gold enemies not including Linels Camp Perry.
