[@C0LPAN1C]

Some advice, When you chop guardian legs be sure to collect the drops from the legs before you kill it altogether. I found that it only renders ~10, and if you have too many parts on the screen, it'll occlude and unload the prior from game memory. I've lost out on maximizing my drops by not doing that prior. Same goes for multiple guardians simultaneously. I killed the two near tarrey town in Akkala before picking up the parts concurrently, and noticed some of my loot drop had magically disappeared :(

That’s some really good advice! I’ll keep that in mind for when I do this run.

I keep watching this video over and over for fun. This is my 16th time watching this

[@ChadTanker]

Guardian gear is the best ingame when looking at availability and damage output/block. It also gets a buff when wearing the ancient amour set, which makes it even stronger than most gear. The only question is how do you get started, because you have nothing and gotta kill nano guardians for the gear and then slowly leveling up.

I love these challenge runs they are so much fun to watch! You are the best!!!

[@Croton]

I'm happy you like watching them, thank you! :D

Same

@@Croton You should try only bone weapons!

[@ShortBread-StopMotion]

I have waited so long for another challenge, keep on being a botw king

[@Cheesepixza]

Thank you so much. I farm guardians for ancient loot, and I had a hard time finding lots of guardians, but because of you, I don't need to do that anymore. Also, it makes you realise how many guardians are in central hyrule, not including the other versions.

[@TheForgottenTainted]

Seeing Croton obliterate thunderblight... That does put a smile on my face. (Seriously though, Why is something Ganon made more difficult then Ganon? I hope we get a proper fight in BOTW2)

[@AlvaraRisen]

You should do this again but withca new rule. Get the Master Cycle Zero since its technically a guardian type item

[@pickl_eric_k]

I definitely want to see a Goron run at some point where you can finally use the drill shaft again

[@hignet4397]

Whats so good about the drill shaft?

[@ysc_josh]

@@hignet4397 1. It can break ores, bomb-able rocks and weak metal crates 2. memes

[@Turkey_animates]

Your the best Zelda streamer I’ve ever come across your just so peaceful and happy

[@fiferbates2405]

I’ve completed all the challenges you do and I’m so excited to try out this one you did absolutely amazing and crushed every enemy you saw thanks for making this a great video that was fun to watch.

[@BellaT10]

You should do another challenge run. I’ll set the rules for you. This is… The Goron run! -goron weapons such as the: Stone smasher, boulder breaker and the drill shaft etc… -the flame breaker armer counts as “goron armor” - basic run rules apply as well. -only Daruks protection can be used. -complete all goron quests and mini games. -there’s no shields or bows that I know of so that should be fun :) -if you would like to make adjustments that cool to! This is just a suggestion you don’t have to do it! If you do the run I hope you have fun!

[@rowanbarnfather7776]

Impossible to do Rudania, ironically. You need a bow or a torch to carry the blue flame.

[@BellaT10]

@@rowanbarnfather7776 that’s why I said adjustments could be made to make it possible.

[@rowanbarnfather7776]

@@BellaT10 Maybe you could be allowed to use a knight’s bow, like in the DLC.

[@BellaT10]

@@deaconaligood I didn’t, if you read the comment it says drill shaft.

[@patrickryan01]

Been waiting since the streams for the video to hit YT. Not disappointed in the slightest!

[@jasonbrock2681]

That was fun. Seeing you go into the Calamity with good equipment is a fun change.

[@tonyblock721]

Quick thing, if you want to cheese runs like this, use the durability glitch to refresh your weapons instead of getting new ones

[@thenewherooftime815]

This run is so cool! Can’t wait for the bird run!

[@thecatinthefedora1201]

Yoooo also please do a Rito only run, that was really fun for me when I tried it myself

[@soniasun2692]

Yeah! I love this emphasis on bows and the fact that they have no claymore

[@thecatinthefedora1201]

Sonia Sun yeah, of the challenge runs ive done (shiekah, gerudo, zora, rito) Rito was the hardest, but also the most fun. Also I had to reset a million times because thunderblight kept breaking all my kite shields, of which there are 3 in the game and they dont respawn

[@soniasun2692]

@@thecatinthefedora1201 Wow. I’m surprised you even used the shield. I only got one going into the Thunderblight fight but I so scared of breaking it I just didn’t use it at all. I died a few times but I didn’t seem as bad as how you described it. The hardest part for me was Ganon actually. On the second phase I had to either parry his lasers or flurry rush. That was the one that made me reset a bunch of times. I’m kind of sad that the kite shields don’t respawn because they look really cool. But it was still fun nonetheless.

[@thecatinthefedora1201]

@@soniasun2692 yeah, well I had decided to do thunderblight second to get it out of the way, so i didnt have daruks protection or miphas grace. Ganon honestly wasnt too hard, since i spend a lot of time practicing flurry rushes on guardian scouts and lynels

[@xanellsworth549]

2 things. one, goron run is a stretch since you can't use bows, but seems fun and the immune to fie buff is cool, and 2, this was cool. 31:29

[@arinwolfe4853]

"There is merit in dodging..." THE SASS LMAO

[@corrincom]

this mans dedication to completing these runs is insane

[@Nicholas86753]

I would love a Yiga only run (maybe with Red dyed shiekah outfit?) Or a Monster weapon only run (With Kilton's Dark Link Armor)

[@sliggoomaster7213]

That's good and all, yes, but hear me out: Bokoblin/Moblin/Lizolfos Mask with hylian tunic+trousers died orange/blue/green

[@Rusty17000]

has to be my fav breath of the wild theme run, i think ill try this too, im getting botw for my birthday on sunday, cant wait
