A cool use for Dragon Parts, and Revisiting Combat Tech | TotK Tricks

[@KlericYT]

Star Fragments are mid; they only have 80m despawn radius. Also other people were right, throwing on a bright bloom seed (big or small) is a solid alternative; when bloomed they give whatever it is attached to a despawn radius of around 610 m. Unbloomed, it's 160 m.

[@Bernandez4139]

Bro that's why my hoverbike always despawns above ground but never when I got a light on it in the depths! 😲

[@alexclaton]

when i use bright bloom only the part its attached to doesnt despawn, everything else still does. so im only left with a fan

[@KlericYT]

@@alexclaton ah I guess I never went back before complete despawning to check what might have been left of it.

Take this with a grain of salt, but might star fragments be better? I mean, they fall halfway across the map? Idk, great vid btw

[@michaelskorka2697]

this changed my life, thank you thank you!!

[@123goofyking]

When you think about it, the object permanence for mirrors and dragon parts makes complete sense. Mirrors are used heavily in the Lightning Temple, so it would cause a lot of unnecessary frustration if they kept despawning while running around solving a puzzle. Meanwhile, dragon parts are expected to be flung very far away after detaching from the dragon, so those would need to stay loaded a very long distance to once again prevent frustration. Star fragments however, while similar, don't actually exist in the world until you get really close to their landing spot.

[@dyinginside8716]

You can catch star fragments while they're falling in the sky

That is a separate, pre-scripted event, that occurs when skydiving. Not the same thing as the ones falling in the distance.

[@ToyKeeper]

Brightbloom seeds seem to have special despawn rules too. It seems like the game keeps them around permanently until you've planted more than ~256 of them, and then each new one despawns the oldest one. It's also possible to lose some if a little frox eats it, or if the thing it's attached to gets destroyed, or if you plant them too close together. And I'm not sure, but it also seems to increase the despawn radius for items they're attached to. I mostly use them attached to devices, or as markers to show where I've been or where I need to go.

[@ChaoticHoly]

Slapping them on the front of your vehicles for underground travel is a real banger way to save power and skipping using lights.

[@ToyKeeper]

@@ChaoticHoly Exactly. A hoverbike with a giant brightbloom makes getting around super easy, barely an inconvenience. The thing people often don't realize, though, is that the brightbloom helps above ground too, not just in the depths.

[@jemsuper]

I have found the front wheel of my bike with the plant attached, but the rest despawned. Does the range extend to the entire bike too, cause it doesnt seem so

[@Luke42652]

@@jemsuper I think it's because an active light bloom isn't really attached with ultrahand. Even if you pre-attatch and then hit it. Whereas the dragon scale is actually attached.

Brightbloom seeds attached to a box with a random person in it sends them super high as the box doesn't break.

[@lasercraft32]

The objects despawning when they get too far away isn't _always_ a problem... but when it IS its really really frustrating. Like when you accidently electrocute yourself while attacking a bokoblin with lightning fruit in its backpack, causing you to drop your super-valuable hylian shield off the cliff forcing you to have to reload the save. ...or when you leave your ride for less than 5-minutes and it vanishes without a trace.

​@@Fabiocean2000 finally something you always want to attach to every unoccupied shield you're carrying around. There are always more Zonai Gliders lying around than you have use for.

[@mythicdawn9574]

@@Mosethyoth Zonai gliders became useless the moment we discovered the 2-fans hoverbike. Gliders are heavy, cannot fly vertically, need another zonai part to slide on the ground and allow takeoff, and have limited duration. The only 2 weaknesses of hoverbike are that it falls like a rock when you run out of power (which can go horribly wrong in the depths, I know from experience xD), and that you can't really add more than a (carefully placed) headlight to it and anything more than that turns it into an unbalanced unflyable mess. But this last point is not very important because almost 90% of vehicle usage (outside of shrines and korok uber drive) is for fast exploration, where you don't need anything more than a hoverbike. The other 10% is just meme vehicles and battle machines (whether for the fun of it, or to save your precious weapons from breaking)

If you fuse a glider to your shield, a shield surf gives you a slightly higher jump, therefore letting you enter slow mo from just a standing shield jump. I use quite a bit during Lynel fights

I think mirrors having the range they do is due to their puzzles being more involved than other objects. They need to remain rendered even if Link is in the other side of the Desert Temple and there's a couple of overworld puzzles I've seen that extend a fair distance.

[@thegrassgenie]

Holy shit they way you put piano sound over the button presses changed everything for me. I’ve never been able to understand button combos before

[@giladmachluf3663]

As for the mid-air blocking trick, a similar result can be achieved by attempting a Shield Surf with a shield that has a Wing fused to it (although I believe you gain slightly less height than the trick shown? it doesn’t require a block tho.)

[@KlericYT]

Yup. You can actually combine the two; if you front hop instead of backflip or sidehop, you can shield surf right after, and with a wing on your shield you get a nice big jump and it looks cool.

Then, talk to cece (grab the fancy hat), and talk to her with the hood on, she should talk to you about it, and thats it. Best reward for like 2 hours of questing, super worth it...

You can also get enough height to go into bullet time by attaching a zonai Wing to your shield, moving forward, jumping, starting a shield surf, then aiming with your bow.
