27 MORE Things You STILL Didn't Know In Zelda Breath Of The Wild

Another round of secrets you probably don't know about in Breath of the Wild! This time we explain the secret launch properties of regular Chuchu jellies, special NPC's that react to the Gerudo disguise, and alternative sources of fuel for updrafts.
In the video above, we cover 27 tips and tricks that aren’t quite as well known, ranging from secrets to glitches, some that are pretty simple and others that are fairly complex. Breath of the Wild has been out for four years at this point, and players have found some amazing things, intended or not, that keep the game and its sense of discovery feeling fresh.

What was your favorite new thing you learned this time? :D

[@PassTheSnails]

I was just happy to see someone mention the backflip-jump slash thing. You can do the exact same thing in skyward sword for some reason

[@alanjosephnibu9709]

the lynel launch was pretty interesting

[@Pebphiz]

Jelly bouncing! Never heard of that, looks like it could lead to some fun gameplay stuff.

[@pendragongameart]

Box Launch!

[@ultaedits5751]

The box launch. I've only made a shield moonjump once or twice in my 250+ hours of playtime.

[@AshenDust_]

If Stalnox eyes can be transferred, that brings up the question, is a stalnox the bones or the eye? If they swap eyes, are they swapping consciousnesses? Or maybe it’s 2 stalnox consciousnesses in one body?

[@linkybot9395]

Good question, I think the bones are the ones with consciousness, meanwhile the eye is what lets them see.

[@richardmahn7589]

Is there a Stalnox heaven?

[@odette5031]

Ah the ship of Theseus

[@janAkaliKilo]

Eye is Stalnox and his skeleton is just posessed pile of bones. Because you can't kill the skeleton alone.

[@rifft1337]

Was wondering the exact same thing while watching that part lol. We need a Zeltik theory video on this topic asap.

Here’s one I haven’t seen in the video series yet. If you want to chase a fallen star fragment but it’s getting too close to dawn, set up a campfire and choose to wait til night. Since the night time frame never changes, your star fragment will still be glowing there waiting for you.

[@richardmahn7589]

They would have to ALL be things we don't know...such as that each blade of grass in the game as a name, a unique look and property.... and then it will list out 6000 of those names....

This game is so damn cool. I love how everything is governed by various different engines, so you can pull things off that aren't really technically glitches, that the developers never intended or even knew about themselves. As much as I'm dying to play the sequel, BotW itself has so much to unpack and discover. I know there's at least a couple shrines I've still never been in, and I've played through the game probably a dozen times.

[@joeyboy823]

You’ve never gotten all 120?

[@koalanectar9382]

[@ldragon2515]

That’s pretty much the definition of what those immersive sims like Thief, System Shock, and Deus Ex we’re all about. It makes me really happy to see that design philosophy in an open world game like BOTW, and it’s why it is my favorite game of the 2010s. :)

I actually learned something about Skyward Sword in this video. That you can parry a Beamos laser with your shield !

Same!

Here is something you could put in next video, in the dome at the end of trial of the sword, there are blue patterns. Okay, but they actually are shapes of many places in hyrule,including the divine beasts and dueling peaks. If you see this please consider putting this fact in the next video

That dome is the same one you fight Calamity Ganon in, and it has the same designs (but red).

I cant remember where I heard this or what it is, but there is a mistake there

[@finch6078]

I got two more; Link has two secret animations, one where he does a slow and sloppy spin attack. This happens when you are completely out of stamina and trigger a Spin Attack. Another is when he punches a chest open. If you crouch and open a chest from behind, he punches it and holds his fist in pain. Not sure if these are new, but they were new to me

[@youraverageshitshow4715]

I knew the first one ever since I started playing, I didn’t understand how stamina worked, and that punch option I figured out about a week ago

I figured there would be more things I didnt know about BotW, but as it seems there was something I didn't know about Skyward Sword as a bonus. You can reflect Beamos Beams with a Shield bash. That would have been useful to know... like 5 hours ago when I finished SSHD.
