What do you think of a Kokiri Only challenge? Only use wood based weapons and shields. Get the Korok Mask first and wear it the whole run. If the mask activates, you must find the Korok before moving on with your objective. Get a "Hero of the" set of your choice (Wilds Set is probably the best challenge, shirt and trousers only), save the Deku tree, get the master sword early (while Zelda's still flying super high). Preferred weapons should be the Forest Dweller gear. Any fusions seem fine, up to you if you want to limit fusions. For fun you could make all of your Zonai machines "disguised" as an animal in some way. Kokiri love animals. Beat it as fast as you can while still finding every Korok you accidentally come across!

[@nataliatrapl8199]

BTW the rules for the run are in the description! So Glide armor was one of the requirements I set cause it looks like it's based off of Mineru. I didn't require the ember, frostbite, and charged armor sets cause they're based off of the dragons though I do see the Zonai inspirations on them. Just wanted to clear up any confusion!

[@Mr.Capgras]

There is a theory that the three dragons were Zonais, so you can use those armors.

[@bekfastking2840]

I personally thought those armors should be usable just because they’re zonai in origin, made by the zonai if not worn originally by zonai

I actually started doing this for fun a week ago- I consider archaic as non zonai but using glide armor is allowed due to it being heavily tied to zonai culture. It makes cold areas so much harder without any thermal clothing.

[@WitheringAurora]

So, something I recently found out about the Glide challenges for the Glide set. You don't have to go to the top to initiate it. Instead you can go to the bottom where the pond you land in is and talk to the Zonai construct, he will transport you to the top where you can start the test before the glide test. Hopefully this will make it easier to reach them in the future.

[@Totk1.0.0Glitches]

You can still throw dupe on 1.1.2. for any sword spear or two hand. Added bonus, You can fuse to a bow/shield and throw them both at once. In order to throw dupe, HOLD throw on any throwable weapon, then pause and save your game. While staying paused you will watch a certain amount of memories depending on what type of weapon youre throwing. the amount for weapons is ...swords(4) spears(5) or two hand(9) After watching (amount) memories just reload your save you just made. When you reload, you'll throw whatever weapon you held throw on, and it will still be in your inventory. If you're curious how this works, What happens is that every time you watch/skip a memory, 1 frame passes in game, so the in game inventory desyncs blah blah science. Bonus glitch that also dupes: Weapon state tranfer (when you want to add modifiers to donor weapons from a host weapon) you can just drop the donor weapon at the end of the glitch sequence and you can transform a stick to an MSG. This dupe needs timing but its simple if you break it down First you need two unfused shields, and drop host gucci weapon and a donor tree branch, then open the fuse ability option but dont fuse yet, walk as far as you can from the branch and Hit L to open your ability menu, and heres the only tricky timing, so before the rune menu appears you need to tap the fuse button. so as practice is helpful just keep hitting the rune menu until you can time hit ZL to fuse right before the menu appears. Theres no punishment for hitting fuse too late so just practice. So just to make sure: drop two weapons, open fuse, TapHoldL and Time tap ZL before the menu appears, and then as you release L to close the ability menu, mash dpad left to swap to your shields, then branch should drop to the ground Then simply hit dpad X to drop your branch-fused shield and switch to your unfused shield. then Pick up the Donor branch that dropped, then the fused shield, then the gucci Host weapon, in that order. Then finally the last sequence, just drop the weapon you have equipped with dpad X and the Branch donor Turned into A Gucci host I tend to use sticks because if you hit fuse too early then the branch will just fuse normally to your shield instead of fusing and dropping at the same time. and I rather not waste weapons/time defusing

[@noahcarrier3256]

Finally someone did a only zonai challenge I've seen other people do it but just in a dumb way like "only zonai DEVICES" they are to lazy to do an ACTUAL only zonai unlike you this video is a master piece 100000000\10

[@cts9254]

Technically the Ancient Hero's Aspect is kinda like Zonai armor since when you wear it, you pretty much become a Zonai version of Link

[@raventheampwave1900]

I know this might sound basic, but what if you try to beat the game as a Hylian? Use runes as little as possible (excluding the tutorial shrines), use only Hylian weapons (soldier, royal, royal guard, etc.) You can also only use Hylian armor (like the normal Hylian set, soldier's set, royal guard set, etc.) You can't go to any of the sky islands (except the tutorial, obviously). And finally, no Zonai devices are allowed.

[@Crazy.2.]

Really good video But it would’ve been nice if you went to get the zonai paraglider fabric

[@JustinBae]

What could have been true Zonai finale would be to use the Ancient Hero's Aspects, which actually turns Link into a Zonai (sadly, that requires all 152 shrines) While yes, it's possible to have Link supercharging himself with all that light of blessing created by Rauru and the Zonai shrines, it would still take a LOT of time to cleanse all of the above to get the Zonai form

I thought the same thing. Why can they not attack more and better? But I found out they do attack much better once you get the Sage’s will and give them to a Goddess statue. There are a total of 20 Sage’s will. Four per help. You can wait and do them all at once or get 4 at a time and pick which one you want to upgrade. They are a great help with their upgrade. Sometimes I find myself just running in circles while they kill the enemies and then collect the loot. A lot of fun.
