Infinite climbing
Normally Link loses
stamina while climbing. He must then rest to recover stamina to keep climbing.
Use the following glitch to keep climbing without having to rest to refill your
stamina. Start climbing up any mountain, even in the rain. Press B to drop,
then immediately press B again while holding the Left Analog-stick Forward.
Link should run on his feet for a short burst, recovering stamina before
climbing again. Keep repeating this process to recover stamina and climb
endlessly. Simply press B and Forward after falling, but make sure you do this
before completely running out of stamina or else you will fall until your
stamina fully recovers.
Getting the unbreakable Master Sword
The unbreakable
Master Sword is one of the best weapons in the game. It cannot be damaged and
does not have a durability meter. However, it does have a cool down period
before it can be used again in combat after it has been depleted of its
charges. The Master Sword can be found in a grove inside the Great Hyrule Forest , northeast of Central Hyrule . To reach the area, go through the Woodland
Stable and continue on the path until you reach the Lost Woods. Then, travel
towards the Korok Forest . While at the entrance to the forest, light
a torch at the nearby brazier. The torch flame will tilt in certain directions;
follow the directions of the flame. However, the forest is filled with fog that
can teleport you back to the start. Whenever it seems to be thickening around
you, retrace your steps back a bit to avoid the fog. The flame will eventually
guide you to where the sword is stuck inside a stone. To collect the Master
Sword, you will need 13 heart containers. A secret feature of the Master Sword
is when you attempt to throw the blade while at full health, you will instead
throw a beam. This is especially helpful against Keese and Guardians since the
beam is not affected by gravity.
Getting the Hylian Shield
The Hylian Shield
is located inside Hyrule Castle , which is one of the most difficult areas
in the game and the final dungeon. However, you do not actually have to
complete the rest of the game to get the shield and can go to the castle as
soon as you complete the tutorial and enter the open world. Once you reach Hyrule Castle , go towards its back by looping around the
castle until you are on the hills behind it. There is a broken bridge near the
castle's back; go to the west side of the bridge. At the broken bridge, jump
down and glide until you reach the luminous stones in the distance. Just before
those stones is an easy to reach platform that spirals towards the water. At
the top of the spiral platform is a Guardian that can be quite difficult to
defeat unless you are a higher level. Once you are at the top of the ramp and
facing the Guardian, run past it through the door and enter the castle,
avoiding damage from the Guardian. As soon as you enter the door, hug the
nearest wall to avoid the Guardian and reset it. Once the Guardian goes back to
its place, proceed further towards the gate in front of you. Use the Cryonis
rune to lift up the gate and get through it. You will enter a prison area with
lots of enemies locked in cells after passing through the gate. At the end of
this area is a side room that you can enter to wake up a skeletal boss,
Stalnox. Defeat Stalnox to get the Hylian Shield. The best way to defeat it is
by targeting its eye with ranged attacks until it falls, then hit it with the
sword. An upgraded Stasis rune also helps by freezing it in one location and
making it easier to hit the eye. If you already have obtained the Master Sword,
it will be easier to defeat Stalnox since the weapon gets double attack power
inside Hyrule Castle . Once Stalnox has been defeated, a loot
chest that contains the Hylian Shield will appear. The Hylian Shield is the
most iconic shield in The Legend Of Zelda series and has been shown in the
artwork for pretty much every game.
Getting the Dark Link costume
Successfully
complete the "A Shady Customer" quest. The quest can be acquired from
East Akkala Stable, and is given by an NPC named Kilton who appears in the Skull Lake . After completing the "A Shady
Customer" quest, Kilton will begin appearing outside major towns at night
time. He only accepts monster parts. Killing monsters will reward you with
monster part items (tails, eyes, bones, guts, fangs, horns, etc.) that can be
traded to Kilton. Trade the indicated number of monster parts to get the
corresponding piece of Dark Link gear:
Dark Hood (3
defense): 1,999 mon
Dark Trousers (3
defense): 999 mon
Dark Tunic (3
defense): 999 mon
To quickly get
monster parts (and lots of good gear), fight Hinox and Lynel. Hinox are giant
cyclops creatures that are tough, but worth fighting. Even early in the game,
they drop 4-5 Hinox Toenails that sell for 18 mon per drop. They are found
throughout the game. Lynel are centaurs that are end-game enemies that drop
Guts (100 mon), Horns (20 mon), and Hoofs (30 mon). They appear in the Akkala
region, and taking Kilton side quests is a good way to find and fight Lynels.
Once you obtain all three pieces of the Dark Link costume, you will get the
"Night Speed Up" set bonus that allows Link to move faster at night,
thereby increasing stealth. Dark Link first appeared in The Legend Of Zelda:
Link's Awakening as the final Boss. Dark Link also appeared as a mini-Boss in
The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time.
Special Amiibo unlockables
The game is not
setup by default to detect Amiibos. To setup the Amiibos functionality, open
the inventory menu, select the "System" tab, and choose the
"Options" selection to enable the Amiibo functionality by switching
it from the default "Do Not Use". Once this setting has been
activated, you can start using Amiibos. To do that, open the Rune menu and
change the rune in the Sheikah Slate to the Amiibo. Then, place the Amiibo rune
on a flat area of ground. Once the rune is in place, put the Amiibo toy over
the Right Analog-stick on the Joy-Con to scan it. If scanned successfully, a
chest will appear. You can only scan each Amiibo once per day. Most of the
Amiibos give common unlockable items, but can also give food and materials.
Some Amiibos can give rare items. Each time they are scanned, you have a random
chance of the Amiibo dropping its rare item. The following is a list of
possible common and rare drops from the Amiibos. All of the Tunics are three
piece armor sets (cap, tunic, and leggings). Note: The Epona horse is
guaranteed to drop the first time you scan Super Smash Bros. Link, but it only
happens once per save game. You should only summon Epona if you have access to
a stable to keep her permanently.

Getting the Warm Doublet
The Warm Doublet is
a special piece of clothing that provides unlimited protection from cold
weather status effects. Go to the Old Man's house south of the Temple Of Time in the Great Plateau. At the southern edge,
read the diary inside the house with the cook pot outside. The diary describes
a special recipe for "Spicy Meat and Seafood Fry". Cook this recipe,
then talk to the Old Man, saying "I cooked something" to get the Warm
Doublet. The diary does not reveal the Spicy Meat and Seafood Fry recipe. To
cook it, you need the following ingredients: Spicy Pepper, Raw Meat, and Hyrule
Bass. Spicy Peppers are found in the southern region of the Great Plateau. Look
near the Old Man's house, or growing on the path up to the River Of The Dead . Raw Meat drops from wild boars in the Forest Of Spirits . Crouch and sneak close, then carefully aim
an arrow to kill them with one shot. They will run away if they detect you.
Hyrule Bass are found in the waters between the Great Plateau Tower and Oman Au Shrine. Swim toward them from
the deep and herd them toward the beach to trap them. After collecting the
items, select the ingredients from your inventory and place them into a cooking
pot. There is one located outside the Old Man's house. After creating the
recipe, speak with the Old Man to get the Warm Doublet. Equip the flimsy armor
to explore the Mount Hylia region without taking damage from the cold
weather.
Getting the Shard Of Farosh's Horn
Upgrading the
Champion Tunic requires two Shard Of Farosh's Horn. This can easily be missed
if you do not know what and where Farosh is. Farosh is one of the dragon
spirits that roam the land of Hyrule . You can find Farosh near Lake Hylia around midnight ; she will come out of the lake if you are close enough
to have her spawn. Go to the Lake Tower near Lake Hylia , and jump off to the north and land on the
south exit pillar off the bridge above Hylia. You will need a decent bow. It is
recommended to use a triple shot bow, like the Great Eagle Bow. Set up a fire
and wait until around midnight to see the dragon spirit appear from water in the
northwest of the lake. It will be far away at first, but it will come towards
you. Wait for the dragon to get close enough for the wind to pick up so when
you jump you can use it to get even higher. Glide up and towards the dragon and
avoid any of the electric balls coming from the dragon. When you are close
enough to hit the dragon, aim your bow at her horn and hit it a few times with
the slow shot. When it glows that means the horn will fall into the lake. It
should fall in the water on the east side of the bridge. Repeat this process
again to get the two horns required to upgrade the Champion Tunic.
Upgrading the Sheikah Slate
Successfully
complete the "Locked Mementos" quest to upgrade the Sheikah Slate and
unlock the camera, Hyrule Compendium, and an album. The "Locked
Mementos" quest is given by Impa in Kakariko Village . Once you accept the quest, travel east
where the road splits. Continue following this road until you reach Fort Hateno . To quickly get there, travel by horse to
ride past the enemies. However, keep an eye on the stamina of your horse. From Fort Hateno , keep following the path until you see a
fork in the road. Take the left path to reach Hateno Village . It is a long journey filled with enemies.
Just keep moving along the path to reach the village. Once you are inside the
village, go up and around to see the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, which is high up
on the cliff. Enter the lab and talk to Purah and Symin. You will eventually
have a conversation with Purah where she will offer to repair the Sheikah Slate
once you bring the blue flame from the ancient furnace located in the town.
This blue flame is required to light up the furnace in the lab. Simply find the
blue flame and carry it using the torch from lamp to lamp. It is likely that
the torch will break during your journey back to the lab -- so keep an eye out
for the bushes that will give you sticks when struck. The lamp will take you
back to the lab. Once you have reached the lab, light the furnace outside with
your torch to activate a travel gate. Enter the lab and talk to Purah about
repairing the Sheikah Slate. She will repair the Sheikah Slate and you will get
a camera, Hyrule Compendium, and an album.
Turning rusty items into better items
Drop a rusty weapon
or shield on the ground in front of a Rock Octorok (enemy that inhales then
spits an exploding rock at you). It will inhale the item and glitter for a bit
before suddenly spitting a better item out at a high speed. Note: Pay attention
to your surroundings (extreme heat, cliffs) so you do not lose your new
weapon/shield.
Enhanced weapons, bows, and shields
Successfully
complete the game and a star will appear next to your save file. Any weapons,
bows, and shields that you obtain after that point will have a random
enhancement such as Durability Up or Attack Up.
Respec hearts and stamina
During the
"Locked Mementos" quest, you will arrive in Hateno Village . While in Hateno Village , look on the path below the
"modern" houses, next to Firly Pond, to find a black smoking statue.
Talk to the Horned Statue to start a side quest. The statue will initially
steal one heart container, but talk to it again to get the heart container
back. Once you get the heart container/stamina vessel back, the statue will
reveal all of its functions. Pray at the statue to get the option to
"sell" your heart containers and/or stamina vessels for 100 rupees.
You can then buy back a heart container or stamina vessel for 120 rupees.
Reviving your horse
If your horse dies
and you want to revive it, travel to Malanya Spring in the far south of Hyrule.
Continue south past Lake Hylia and southeast of Faron Grasslands. It is
southeast of the Highland Stable. Cross the Horse God Bridge to see something that looks like the fairy
fountains. Interact with it and pay 1,000 rupees to summon the Horse God to
revive your horse. Whenever one of your horses die, return to this place to
have them revived.

rupees, the third Great Fairy asks for 1,000 rupees, and the final Great Fairy
asks for 10,000 rupees to upgrade your armor. These are one-time payments, and
the Great Fairies will not ask you for money each time you visit them. However,
each attire in the game requires specialized materials to get upgraded. If you
wish to upgrade an attire, you must provide the Great Fairies with all the
required materials.

the area.
Hidden treasure chest locations
Search the
indicated locations to find secret treasure chests:
Great Plateau

treasure chests in the water near the door to the Oman Au Shrine. Since you
cannot dive into the water, use the Magnesis rune to pull the treasure chests

treasure chest in the water near Keh Namut. Use the Cryonis rune to build an
icy pillar to reach the treasure chest and build another one directly
underneath the chest to get it.

Rare armor and weapon locations
Search the listed
location or complete the indicted task to get the corresponding rare armor or
weapon:
Rare armor
Warm Doublet: Meet
the Old Man in the Great Plateau and complete his special recipe to get the
Warm Doublet. The Warm Doublet is chest armor that gives Link 7 base defense
and resistance to cold.
Stealth Armor: The
entire set can be purchased in Kakariko Village . The armor has very low defense, but the
set bonus adds "Stealth Up" to all pieces. It is very helpful for
gathering gathering insects and lizards quickly.
Climber's Bandanna:
It is found in a treasure chest inside Ree Dahee Shrine in Dueling Peaks . The Climber's Bandanna is head armor that
gives Link 7 base defense and boosts climbing speed.
Climbing Boots:
Successfully complete the "Secret Of The Cedars" shrine quest to get
the Climbing Boots. Speak with Clavia in Hateno Village to get the "Secret Of The Cedars"
shrine quest. She is slightly northeast of the shrine in town, standing at the
end of a dock. She will give you the following riddle to solve: "When the
three summit trees become one turn your back to them and head towards the sea.
A trial encased in stone awaits you there." The solution is to zoom in
close on your map to see trees pictured on the map; follow them in a direct
line to the east to see a rocky outcrop on the map. That is the location of the
Tahno O'ah Shrine. You need to destroy some rocks for it to appear. The boots
give Link 3 base defense and boost climbing speed.
Climbing Gear: It
can be found in the Chaas Qeta Shrine in the Major Test Of Strength. This is a
challenging combat test -- so it is not available as early as the other items
in the set. It is recommended to bring some good food the Hylian Shield to more
easily complete it. The Climbing Gear armor gives Link 3 base defense and
improves climbing speed. The Climbers armor set bonus is not too strong for
defensive capabilities, but the "Climbing Jump Stamina Up" bonus for
the complete set allows Link to scale cliffs twice as high as he could
previously, drastically increasing the amount of times he can jump without
losing all his stamina.
Zora Armor: Reach
Zora's domain to get the Zora Armor; it is a part of the main story. The armor
gives Link 3 base defense and increases swimming speed.
Zora Helm: Travel
to Toto Lake and locate the ruins under water. Use the

and gives Link 3 base defense. You can also use the Spin attack under water.
Zora Greaves:
Successfully complete the "Lynel Safari" side quest in Zora's Domain
to get the Zora Greaves. The armor gives Link 3 base defense and increases swim
speed. The Zora armor set bonus is "Swim Dash Stamina Up", which
greatly reduces the amount of stamina it takes to dash while swimming. It
previously could take up 20-25% of the original stamina bar, but the upgrade
reduces that number closer to 5%.
Champions Tunic:
After finding Link's first memory, speak to Impa in Kakariko Village to get the Champions Tunic. The armor gives
Link 5 base defense and reveals an enemy's life gauge when equipped.
Flamebreaker Armor:
The first part of this set can be obtained approximately halfway up the trail
towards Goron City . Talk to the human at the Goron Mine, and
he will ask for 10 Fireproof Lizards that can be found in the area. The rest
can be bought in Goron City . The armor prevents Link from taking fire
damage in the Edin area. The Flamebreaker armor set bonus makes Link fire
proof, preventing him from being set on fire by enemies from arrows or hits,
like flaming Kleese.
Rare weapons
Flameblade: Travel
to Hicklay Wood and proceed south. Follow the stream to reach a small
waterfall, then start climbing up at that location. Climb up to the area with
the breakable rocks, and destroy them with a bomb to enter a small cave with
lots of chests containing gems. There is also another breakable rock. Destroy
the other breakable rock with a bomb to find the sword underneath. It is one of
the most powerful weapons in the game with 24 attack damage, and it deals fire
damage.

find it inside the Shai Yota Shrine. The Great Flameblade has 34 attack damage
and deals fire damage.

north east area of Kakariko Village to get "The Crowned Beast" shrine
quest. He will give you the following riddle to solve: "A beast that wears
a crown of bone. Prancing through the lush green. Mount the beast upon its
thrown. For only then the Shrine can be seen." The solution is to search
the nearby area for a stag (deer with antlers) and try to mount it. They do not
take much stamina to mount, but it can be frustrating chasing them down; bring
stealth food if possible. Mount the stag and bring it to the platform near Kass
to open the Mezza Lo Shrine. The Thunderblade has 22 attack damage and deals
elemental damage.
Knight's Bow: It
can be found inside the Soh Kofi Shrine, along the Zora River just north of Lanayru Tower . The Knight's Bow has 26 attack damage.
Ceremonial Trident:

directly below the bridge to see the outline of the Ceremonial Trident. You can
create an ice block closer to the Trident if you are unable to reach it. The
Ceremonial Trident has 14 attack damage.
Royal Broadsword:
Successfully complete "Guardian Slideshow" shrines quest, then
complete the nearby Shoqa Tatone Shrine to get the Broadsword. Speak with Loone

picture of three different types of Guardians: small Guardians, flying
Guardians, and walking Guardians. There are multiple places to find each
Guardian. Small Guardians (Guardian Scouts) are often found in combat trial
shrines. The easiest one can be found in Soh Kofi Shrine near Lanayru
(northwest). If you have already complete it, check south and southwest of Hateno Village . There is one on the very edge of the large
cliff overlooking the sea and another in the water below. Flying Guardians
(Guardian Skywatchers) can be found hovering around the top of Akkala Tower , north of Zora's Domain and Lanayru. A
walking Guardian (Guardian Stalker) can be found on the beach South East of Ibara
Butte (Between Puffer Beach and Komo Shoreline). Once you have a picture of
each type of Guardian, return to Loone and show her the pictures to use the
ball on the nearby platform to reveal the hidden Shoqa Tatone Shrine. The Royal
Broadsword is highly durable and has 36 attack damage.
Great Frostblade:
It can be found at the shrine next to East Akkala Stable, in the far northeast
corner of the map. The Great Frostblade is a 2H version of the normal
Frostblade. It has 30 attack damage and deals frost elemental damage.

can be found at the top of Woodland Tower , which is the tower northeast of Hyrule Castle , directly west of Eldin Tower . Once you reach the top, climb onto the
skull and proceed to the very top to get the Royal Claymore. It is a very

Necluda . You can
also access it from the south side of Dueling Peaks . Look for it near the river.
Shrine locations and puzzle solutions
Shrines Of Trials
are dungeons with puzzles and obstacles. There are over a hundred Shrines Of
Trials in the game. Activate the Sheikah Towers to make finding new shrines easier. Reach
the monks inside the shrines to get a Spirit Orb. Shrines also contain other
rewards and runes that add new abilities to the Sheikah Slate. The following is
a list of the shrine locations, puzzle solutions, and how to complete the
trials.
Great Plateau Shrines
Ja Baij Shrine: It
is located south of the Resurrection Tower , in the Easter Abbey Ruins. After entering
the shrine, place the Sheikah Slate on the pedestal on the left side to get the
Remote Bombs. Spherical Bombs are better for rolling down slopes and Square
Bombs are better for more precise hits. Break the wall and proceed to the
hallway. There is another breakable wall on the right side with a Traveler's
Sword behind it. Go back and destroy two rocks to reveal a ladder. In the next
area, place a Square Bomb at the end of the rotating platform. In the next
large area, proceed to the platform near the first funnel and place a Spherical
Bomb in the funnel to reveal another ladder. The ladder will take you to the
monk to get another Spirit Orb. On the opposite side, look for another couple of
blocks that extend and retract. Stand on the farthest one to be launched to a
chest containing the Soldier's Bow.
Ke Numut Shrine: It
is located at the top of Mount Hylia , south of the Hylia River . After entering the shrine, place the
Sheikah Slate on the pedestal on the left side to get the Cryonis rune that
allows you to create icy blocks and platforms from the water. Use the rune to
create a pillar and get to the next area by grabbing the ledge. In the next
area, use the rune directly underneath the gate to force it open. On the other
side of the gate is a Mini Guardian. Once you are in the final area, create ice
pillars on both sides of the raised platform to access the upper area. Once you
are up, do not proceed to the monk yet; look for a treasure chest in an alcove.
Then, get the Spirit Orb from the monk.
Owa Daim Shrine: It
is located on the southeastern side of Mount Hylia , at the southern edge of the Great Plateau.
After entering the shrine, place the Sheikah Slate on the pedestal on the left
side to get the Stasis rune that allows you to freeze time and build up the
momentum of certain objects. When the platform is straight, use the Stasis rune
on the large gear on the left side to get into the next area. However, be
careful while doing this because of incoming boulders that can kill you. Wait
for one to pass, then use the rune on the next one to reach the next section.
There is also a treasure chest on a higher platform. From the first platform,
grab the Iron Sledgehammer and equip it. Then, use the Stasis rune on the
boulder and continue hitting it with the Iron Sledgehammer to build its
momentum and reveal a new path. The path will lead you across the bridge to the
monk for another Spirit Orb.
Dah Kaso Shrine: It
is located below the Digdogg Suspension Bridge in southwestern Central Hyrule . The main objective in this shrine is to
destroy the spear wielded by the Guardian Scout. As soon as you see him
charging it, dodge to the sides. Try dodging back because of the spear's range.
If the Guardian steps back and extends, quickly move behind a pillar to avoid
taking any damage. At about 50% HP, the Guardian will add laser attacks. To
avoid this, jump into the air, glide, and aim for the eye in order to stun it.
Aim for the eye or you will get hit by the attack. Inflict some more damage and
the Guardian will turn blue, indicating its final phase. During the final
phase, dodge and sprint while inflicting damage. Once you defeat it, grab the
Guardian Spear, Ancient Core, and Spirit Orb.
Wahgo Katta Shrine:
It is located southeast of Central Hyrule . After entering the shrine, climb the metal crates to find an Amber
inside a treasure chest. Stacking the crates does not allow you to reach the
monk, which is why you need to stack them against the opposite platform to find
a metal slab; use the Magnesis rune. Then, build a bridge to the monk to get
the Spirit Orb.
Kaya Wan Shrine: It
is located on the eastern edge of Central Hyrule , north of Wetland Stable. After entering the shrine, use
the Cryonis rune to get past the waterfall. In the next area, there will be a
Guardian Scout. Hit it in the eye to quickly kill it. On the right side of the
platform, you can see a treasure chest in the water that can be accessed with
the Cryonis rune. The treasure chest contains an Ancient rune. In the next area
are two Guardian Scouts. Since it can be difficult to kill them simultaneously,
try to build a platform and use a powerful bow to snipe at them. Then, use the
Cryonis rune underneath the gate on the left side to open it and get the
Knight's Broadsword. Finally, use the wooden shaft in the water to guide it to
the end of the waterfall. You can then jump and use the Paraglider to reach the
monk and get the Spirit Orb.
Getting the True Ending
To get the
"True Ending", successfully complete all the main story missions and
unlock all of Link's memories. Free all Divine Beasts and recruit them in the
final battle against Ganon. Defeat Ganon to view an extra cutscene after the
normal ending cutscene.
Memory locations
During one of the
main quests, you will travel to Kakariko Village and speak with Impa. If you are finished
with Hateno Ancient Tech Lab and Purah, you should be able to get 12 camera
pictures on your Sheikah Slate. These 12 pictures basically point to old places
and contain memories of Link and Zelda. This will start the "Ancient
Memories" quest where you are asked to find all the memories in order to
discover your past. Search the indicated locations to find all memories. Note:
There are five memories that are unmissable because you automatically receive
them as you progress through the game.
1. Subdued
Ceremony: From Central Hyrule, travel inside Hyrule Field and enter the castle
from the main gate. Once inside, go towards the Sacred Ground Ruins to find the
memory.
2. Resolve And
Grief: From the Great Plateau Tower , travel towards Lake Kolomo in the southern edge of Hyrule Field. From
there, travel towards the southwest edge of the lake to see the memory in the
distance.
3. Shelter From The
Storm: Travel to the northeast edge of Hylia's bridge and towards the lake.
Once there, travel towards the nearby river and onto a hill with a visible
tree. Climb the tree to recover the memory. The memory is basically located on
the Hills of Baumer that overlook Lake Hylia .
4. Zelda's Resentment:
Travel towards the Ancient Columns that are located on the west side of Tabantha Great Bridge or the south side of Piper Ridge. Once
there, you can see a Shrine Of Trial with the memory located in front of it.
5. Blades Of The
Yiga: Travel from the Gerudo Desert Gateway to Gerudo Town to find the Kara Kara Bazaar; the memory is
located on the right side of the bazaar.
6. A Premonition:
It is located in Eldin Canyon , near Death Mountain . Travel to the east side of Woodland Tower and Minshi Woods to reach the area. Once
there, proceed up the hills to find the memory.
7. Silent Princess:
Travel towards the east side of the Monya Toma Shrine and Serenne Stable to be
near the Irch Plain. Once there, you should be able to easily locate the
memory.
8. Father And
Daughter: It is located inside Hyrule Castle , inside the Western Keep. Go to the second
floor and into a walkway that will lead directly to the memory.
9. Slumbering
Power: Travel to North Akkala Valley from Ordorac Quarry to find the Spring Of
Power; the memory is located nearby.
10. To Mount Lanaryu : Travel to Sanidin Park Ruins. Explore the area until you find a
large statue with the memory nearby.
11. Return Of
Calamity Ganon: Travel to Naydra Snowfield, then proceed into the Lanaryu Promenade.
From there, go towards the east side of the area to see the memory in the
distance.
12. Despair: Travel
to the northeast edge of the Bottomless Swamp , near the east side of Hyrule Field. In
this area, you will come across a small forested section that contains the
memory.

location of the final memory.

Dyeing clothes
The dye shop is
located in Hateno
Village , near the central square with the general
and armor shops. There are fifteen colors available. The dye will color your
entire set of clothing. You can dye individual clothing by simply removing what
you do not want to dye. Dying clothes costs 20 rupees and the required
materials for the dye color. Each color has a different set of ingredient
requirements. You can also remove dye from clothing, reverting any armor back
to its default color.
Bonding with dogs
Dogs appear
throughout Hyrule, usually near civilization. There are dogs around the Hateno Village farm, and behind the Dueling Peak Stable.
You can bond with any dog. After bonding enough with a dog, they will follow
you around and lead you to treasure chests. The following are some ways to
increase your bond with dogs:
- Stand near a dog
and look at it for a puff of pink to appear. That is the first step for any dog
interaction.
- Give the dog
food. It does not seem to matter which type of food, but the quality will
increase the bond. To give a dog food, open your inventory and select
"Hold", then drop the food on the ground near the dog. If the dog
sees you drop the food in front of its face, it will increase your bond with
it.
- After increasing
your bond, the dog will follow you around. Run around with the dog and let it
chase you.
- Play fetch with
the dog. Use any wooden branch cut from a tree and throw it while the dog is
paying attention. It will run off and retrieve the stick.
Once you have
bonded enough with a dog, he or she will lead you toward a buried treasure
chest. Use Magnesis to see the chest and pull it out of the ground.
Avoiding the Blood Moon
Use the following
trick to avoid the Blood Moon respawning enemies you kill. On a night when you
see the Blood Moon rising, travel to any shrine. Enter it just before midnight . You can either wait until you think it is
safe to leave again or just run through the shrine's puzzle and then leave. If
enough time has passed, the Blood Moon event will not have been triggered and
none of the enemies you killed will have respawned.

Using weapons to control climate
Fire swords
increase Link's ambient temperature and Ice swords decrease Link's ambient
temperature. Use this to your advantage when exploring cold and hot areas, like
high peaks.
Easy Eventide Island
If you drop items
on the raft before stepping off it and onto Eventide Island , they will still be there after the
cutscene. Use this trick to make clearing the island much easier.
Skipping Rin Oyaa Shrine puzzle
Take the orb and
stand in the middle of where the orb is supposed to go. Put the orb down and
use the Stasis rune to freeze it. Then, run up to the platform that rises up
and wait for the rune effect to wear off. The orb will then roll into place,
raising the platform and allowing you to completely skip the puzzle.
Alternate chuchu jelly types
You can change the
chuchu jelly types by using different elements on them. Fire gives red jelly,
ice gives white jelly, and lightning gives yellow jelly. There are several
weapons with elemental properties in the game that work well for this.
Dangerous Cuccos
Normally Cuccos are
not harmful and do not attack Link. However, if you keep attacking a Cucco,
eventually the camera will focus on the bird as it calls for friends. A swarm
of Cuccos will then appear from offscreen and constantly attack Link. Make sure
to save the game before doing this since there is no way to defeat a Cucco.
There are lots of Cuccos in Kakariko Village . There is also a side quest that tasks Link
with finding 10 missing Cuccos. Cuccos appear in 13 of the main The Legend Of
Zelda titles, and first appeared in 1992 in The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The
Past.
-----------------------------------------------------
Replace those weapons from defeating the
divine beast
There are several
weapons you can replace in the game, notably the GREAT EAGLE BOW , and the Boulder Smasher, but they require
a weapon that can be hard to find and diamond that can get tricky to get...
First, the weapon,
you'll need a swallow bow, after reading tons of location articles of where it
might be, I lucked out...
I found a
completely reliable, constant, easy to find location to always get a swallow
bow to replace your great eagle bow...
AT THE FLIGHT RANGE....
Yes, where you
first met that guy that takes you to the divine beast, theres a swallow bow
that respawns in his hut... Same in goron city theres a cobble crusher right on
edge of a house somewhere...
Now we have our
weapons, we need a diamond... Diamonds come from ore... Or more commonly, from
rare ore... These notably have orange crystals coming out of them... Two
things, marks the locations of these special ores on your shieka slate and save
the game... After you've saved it, smash open the rock to get a gem of some
sort... It might be good it might not... If it's not, simply load that save and
try again until you get your diamond...
If your looking for
more rupees, theres a simple method for that if your far enough along in the
game... Take a picture of a SILVER BOKOBLIN and register it to your compendium,
these are the albino looking ones... But more importantly, they drop gemstones
when they are defeated, (keep in mind they have 720 hp as opposed to a normal
bokoblin has 13)sense these guys with your sensor + and youll easily get rich
quick....
Easiest way to defeat a lynel or any
other high hitpoint enemy
Very, very simple,
just hit it with an ancient arrow from akala ancient tech lab located in the
FAR NORTHEAST of hyrule... This arrow is kinda like a black hole... It will
kill your foe, but it wont drop any items either unless it's a guardian...
