I Busted 15 Myths In Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom #3 

Check out my other video! - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kY4ZxqvFrTw.html Also, yes honey is slippery as well as sticky, video below that adresses this point. twitter.com/drwilytwitta/status/1675842861571493895 Also, since people mentioned it, while a gleeok part doesnt work, a dragon part from one of the world dragons does! (Knew this) (Original comment mentioned gleeok so thats what I tested)

I think you had Honey mixed up with something else cause honey is not slippery it’s incredibly sticky and dense like molasses. Even in real life I think honey might slow you down.

You can increase the distance before structures despawn by adding dragon parts. This greatly increases it.

Number 5 is partially true. While a Gleok part doesn't work, any Dragon parts (Scales, claws, fangs and horns) WILL increase the despawn distance of your vehicle, because the vehicle takes on the highest despawn distance of its items, and Dragon parts are the next best thing after Star fragments at night.

To get a reusable elemental explosion on a shield when you block, fuse the respective gem to it. Like ruby for fire, topaz for electric, and sapphire for ice.

For the boomerang weight question, it is actually true. For me, I put a stone talus heart on a giant boomerang and it keeps falling to the ground.

Gloom hands can be easier to fight with a weapon fused with a lizal tail. The whiping action can hit multiple hands at once.

so, the auto-build apple thing is SUPER clever and i love it, but.... You can also get on Mineru's Construct to collect apples from trees. You can collect the apples on the trees from that height AND you can still reach the ones that fell on the ground. It makes farming apples from Satori Mountain very fast and easy. Granted, that is a while into the game, but its a nice trick to have to stock up on endgame wanderings.

To prevent despawn of zonai builds (especially vehicles), try attaching a giant bright bloom to it. I've tested this in the depths and it works a charm. Also, I would expect courser honey to have high friction (honey is very sticky), so it's right you can't shield surf on it

For #15, the Dirigible schema stone includes torches mounted over the fire emitters that power the balloons. So if your battery dies, the craft keeps ascending… Just a little slower.

The de-spawn distance is affected by *Dragon* parts, *not* Gleeok parts. Like a *Farosh Scale* or something. I can see where that confusion came from though haha The problem with using them, is they make that loud, terrible "sparkly thing" noise the whole time!

If you want to one shot gloom hands, just use a topaz-fused arrow, or even better, use a triple shot bow while doing it as they only consume one material, but give 3 bursts just the same as the arrow count.

Here's a tip for efficient gloom spawn murder: Fuse a gleeok horn (any kind, although fire works best) to a soldier's claymore (for the stamina boost). Then just do a charged attack between all the hands - they won't touch you and they'll die in less than 10 seconds.

Best way I found to defeat the Gloom Hands is to run away. When they can't reach you, the gloom they're in will dissipate. When the hands are out of the gloom they poof away leaving dark clumps behind with no Phantom Ganon afterwards. Hmm... If there's a way to get the Gloom Hands out of the gloom without running, then maybe...

If you want elemental explosions when you block with your shield, try fusing a gem such as sapphire or ruby. Works like a charm :)

a great tip to expand on number 7: fuse a Hover stone to a spear, if you throw it it will activate and drop the spear (kinda like when you use one with an arrow) then just use Ultrahand to solve the puzzle and fuse the stone back to the spear when you're done to reuse it later. you can also throw it up and use Ascend to get the high ground whenever. the hover stone will despawn if you try this in a shrine though

One thing I haven't consistently tested myself which I'm curious about is Mineru's damage while wearing the Zonai Helmet. With the helmets styled after the Divine Beasts from BotW are worn the respective Sage from the region will also don a helmet identical to the one their ancestor wore, increasing their attack by 50% (culminative with the constant 30% boost from Sage's Wills), but Mineru's construct will similarly have an altered head design if you wear to Zonai Helm when summoning her. Does this increase her damage in a similar manner? Zonai devices that require power to operate almost seem to never despawn, as apposed to the Wing and Baloon which despawn relatively quickly (also those big stone looking floating platforms that are like giant Hover Stones but can't be obtained in capsules and deployed from your inventory). However items like Fans and Wheels do despawn after about 30 (iirc) cumulative minutes of receiving power, something that's been getting noticed more frequently with experienced builders creating more and more efficient builts. I see other people have pointed out the correction on "dragon parts" on builds referring to the big flying snakes and not the gleeoks, but I'm not sure if anyone has explained why this works, and I have a tidbit for you to test out on this. It's fairly simple. Most objects despawn due to the mentioned hardware issues, but the goddess dragon parts (excluding shards from their backs I think) share the quality with Star Fragments that you are expected to chase them across the map. Because of this intention of design they have to have an astronomically further deload distance, otherwise it wouldn't work as intended. The cool part about this you can test yourself is that this quality of the items remains intact if you recreate these items using Zonaite with Autobuild, so you can spend a measly 3 ore instead of always having to have a dragon part or Star Fragment on hand, and furthermore you won't have to find it if you lose your machine in some catastrophic way (or it gets eaten by a Frox or something). One thing I saw you do in the video, though I can't recall if you pointed this out in a previous video, is that doing a shield surf with a Zonai Wing attached gives you just enough extra airtime to enter bullet time, which is quite useful for Lynel hunting and getting easy headshots in general. A really neat tidbit are the stone hooks in the Right Leg Depot from Mineru's quest in the Depths. For some reason, these parts are indestructible, even if they're recreated using Autobuild using Zonaite. Lynels can and automatically will emit a roar that destroys constructs if they detect anything so much as glued together by Ultrahand nearby, and in the case of things created out of Zonaite with Autobuild this will cause the created objects to completely despawn. In the case of these stone hooks however, even a Lynel's construct destroying roar cannot affect them, and using two of these glued together can force the Lynel into an infinite cycle of trying to destroy them with their roar, effectively stunlocking them. The Master Sword was debuffed from BotW. It's initial 30 attack power is the same, but it is no longer doubled in the "presence of evil". It instead receives a relatively meager 1.5x boost to 45 attack power instead of 60. I suppose this is due to the weapon Fuse ability making this damage boost less necessary, and Nintendo wanting to avoid making the Master Sword the be all, end all for any enemy encounter to encourage the use of different weapons, but it still disappoints me. Nitpick, why are you spelling "myths" with an apostrophe? "Myth's" implies _a_ myth, singular, is in possession of/owning something. Apologies if english isn't your first language, and for the overall length of this comment. I've got a lot of hours in-game, ya know?

If you attach a dragon part to your build, it's very unlikely to despawn. So anything from Naydra, Farosh, Dinraal, and the Light Dragon. It CAN despawn, but you need to be INCREDIBLY far away.

The Island Lobster Shirt allows you to blow sails on boats faster (or at least it did in Breath of the Wild). But does it affect anything else wind-related, or only sails? Does it make Zonai Fans blow harder? What about Fan- and Guster-type weapons and arrows? Rito weapons? The Eightfold Longblade?

FYI the torch thing is actually in a Schema Stone. I believe the device you get is called a Dirigible. The main difference between the torch and flame emitter, is that the FE will make the Balloon ascend much faster.

I found out that close combat with the gloom hands work best along with fighting phantom ganon afterwards. I found you can do this with level 2 soldiers armor and with at least 10 hearts available. Early master sword helps but not required. Though you do need one handed weapons and use fuse to increase their power. You do however need to react fast when grabbed but once phantom ganon comes out stay close and attack relentlessly... yes you'll get hit a lot but only with a quarter heart of damage each time. If you get knocked away, quickly recover and close the distance to him and he can't do any of his power attacks which most times will one shot early game play.

When you attach a gemstone to your shield, every time the shield blocks an attack, it creates an elemental explosion. Also, if you attach a Talus Heart to a large boomerang, it won't return to you completely, and hits the ground to soon

You can also use wood in balloons! I accidentally found this out climbing to the top of a dive challeneg (yes, i climbed all yhe way up then discover if you speak to the construct they teleport you up there😂). If you place a bundle of wood under the baloon, then light it on fire, not only does it burn but the bundle doesnt break and you can collect it back when you're ready to jump off. This might have been a bug but its a good way to save batteries!

Video Request: “What If Godzilla got invited to a different crossover fighting game, instead of MultiVersus?”

you can use the spring over and over again through a glich also the "flurry rush with your bow" Is called bullet time

massively important distinction to make with the item despawning part of the video between the different dragons in the game, usually when someone refers to dragons in just about any context, they refer to the sky dragons, the passive sneks floating about, not gleeoks, putting a SKY DRAGON scale (or possibly any other part you can get off of them, haven't tried, because large brightblooms work well enough too) onto your zonai build inceases the despawn radius of the attached device to 2000map units, kinda expensive for your every 5 minutes hoverbike builds, but that's why you just throw a large brightbloom onto your build, it buffs the respawn radius to 600 map units, which is for all intents and purposes more then you ever need, PLUS, it makes your device build glow, making it somewhat easier to see when you inevitably get yeeted off of it and it zooms off into the distance somewhere.

Attach Dragon parts to keep vehicles from de-spawning. It gives you like a 2km range.

When you go "into a flurry rush with your bow" it's called bullet-time

I use dazzle fruit on Gloom Hands. I do love using muddlebuds on enemy calls. I’ve done a lot of the monster cleanup side quest that way. I got the pirate ship near highland stable by paragliding down and using muddlebuds. While I was watching the chaos I noticed the hunting crew on land and they had to just watch.

Jumping off a sky island with a spring shield just launches you normally

Real good video . My man , here’s your like and a new subscriber. Take care.

Don't Forget about the cooking Proc trick from BOTW. It works in TOTK as well where on the night of the blood moon right when the music changes and the reddish wisps are forming if you cook food it will always proc the boosted effect. If your quick you can cook a heap of boosted food before the event is over.

For number 5, dragon parts work well. Even fake ones created by autobuild, if I remember correctly.

Regarding 13: My understanding is that the forest dweller perk only works with natural/plant-like objects, so it wouldn’t work with bomb barrels or springs, but would with mushrooms (fungi, but who’s counting)

Hey Dr. Will I would just like to say that you were my child hood, when I first got botw when it came out I watched every one of your videos and I genuinely loved every one I just hope your doing well and I’m so happy I refound your channel.

Loved the jontron quote, I actually use it often 😂

With the Champion's Leathers you can fire Sword Beams from the Master Sword regardless of health.

If you attach two stabilizers to a build and activate them, they can give certain builds an anti-gravity effect because they are fighting against each other

I’m glad you clarified that was supposed to be Scooby. I was very confused 😅

You can put dragon parts on a object which allows you to travel further away from it without it despawning, noticed it in a other video. Also wanna point out that you called bullet time a flurry rush while using the wing to jump higher, just thought it was kind of funny lol. Great video btw!

Besides lynals, if you use a portable cooking pot on a armored enemy, it will instantly break their armor

Dragon scales have a despawn range of about 2,000 meters I believe (or about). Attaching one gives you quite a bit of room before you get out of range

For the boomerang being to heavy one. It does actually have an effect of what you put in it. Though you can throw it, when it tries to come back it cannot reach you and will just fall to the ground. This is only affected by a few materials that i cannot remember, but it is actually true.

There is a way to go far away without it despawning. Add a dragon scale! I have not used this trick yet,(I'm still at like, the very beginning lol) but I have seen it work quite well! Love the video btw!!

I also busted a Myth. According to a comment I have read, you could use one of the Star Fragments to create Light Arrows to one-shot Phantom Ganon, well, I shot one arrow with this Star-Fragment, but it only created Light afterwards. Remember Guys: Light isnt always Holy

I have something to add about the Courser Bee Honey fact I put in the comments last time: There is in fact a second material that will peacefully get rid of the bees: Muddle buds! Apparently since they count as smoke (like the Puffshrooms) they can also smoke out the bees! Difference being that because of the smaller AOE the Muddle Bud has, you have to throw it a lot closer to the actual hive than with the Puffshroom.

For shield surfing: sled, cart, and homing cart devices as well as minecarts, ice, and frozen meat all work to decrease friction (they appear to work the same amount in the code).

The dazzle fruit with the gloom hands stuns them all at once!

The stone talus heart boomerang performed differently for me. It would always hit the ground before reaching me. But it would at least start coming back before crashing.

I honestly haven't seen anyone talk about this, but if you toss a giant brightbloom seed into the middle of the gloom hand puddle while elevated (so gloom hand stays in one spot) they will absolutely vanish. I originally tried this with a star fragment on an arrow fired in the puddle and it worked, but on later attempts it wasn't consistent. I also realized this technique does not work on gloom hands in the depths. I'm also wanting to try a star fragment on a wand or weapon because it will fire off light balls, and I'm pretty confident it will work even better

Ooo that would be helpful to float the korok while climbing a mountain

When you add butter to your shield, nothing happens, but you now have butter on your shield

so much effort !

Not being able to go air surfing especially with a wing fused to a shield is a huge oversight. I don't expect you to glide like a complete wing, but a similar effect to that of a wing suit or greater than with the wing fused should have been applied.

Here’s something, If you go hight enough for gloom hands not to reach you but they are still grabbing for you (maybe in a tree) they will disappear without a phantom ganon spawning, they just vanish into dark clumps

All fused structures use the highest render distance attached for each part, as Dragon parts and star parts are both designed to sometimes need you to chase across the map to get them, they have a very high render distance and additionally Grant a large light beacon to wherever your vehicle currently is. Additionally, I think the dragon horns might be the lightest of all parts with that attribute, and can look really cool while being really convenient if you place them on the front of a flying vehicle while in the depths.

#5. Did you try fusing dragon parts? Scales Fangs Horns etc. Those are designed to appear out of rendering ranges just like star fragments, but they are not tied to the day-clock. Star Frag's infinite-render rules turn off at 5am just like if you fail to pick them up in game.

"Honey is as slippery as it gets." Have you actually met honey? It's sticky as can be. More like glue than a slippery oil.

My dreams of a pogo stick shield are ruined lol

i was really hoping you had an instakill for the gloom hands, those things scare the bejeezus out of me...

One the most overpowered fusions that I have found are either flame emmiter or frost emitter with a boomerang you can freeze or burn multiple enemies at once and have it return to you.

I just straight up put a campfire in the balloon lol

I've never thought of honey as "slippery" more of a sticky substance.

When I used a boomerang with a rock-roast on it, it fell mid-flight

Flurry rush with your bow?!? Lol. Bullet time

to prevent zonai dev despawning, I throw a bright bloom seed at it(perfect for depth exploration). In terms of distance, I have gone pretty far without it disappearing. Only when entering a shrine, or a world event, like a mini game, or a cut scene from an npc.

Boomerangs aren't effected by updrafts but their height is relative to your own so if you throw one then jump and glide up in a updraft the boomerang should go up with you (this worked in botw)

I actually found out that if you have one of those shrines where u have to throw balls at targets u can use either bomb flowers or fused spear with the ball

I know that if you use Tulin's gust and bullet-time twice while the wind is still blowing, you will get a dramatic speed boost. Idk what you could use this before besides a substitute for a speed elixir, but still cool.

I made a skate board out of my shield using a zoni cart fused to my shield. The wheels made shield surfing so much easier and I got so much further than ever before.

"A flurry rush with your bow" Imma start saying this instead of Bullet time! 😂❤

Regarding #10, picking apples, I use 20 apples and 1 golden apple so it gets those at the same time. But after you get Mineru, it's easier to ride her to pick the apples up high in the trees and then clean up anything you missed with autobuild apples.

Kleric did a video about vehicle despawning, adding a dragon part of any kind, such as a scale, drastically increases the despawn distance, allowing you to venture further away

Add a ruby, sapphier, or topaz. Ruby and sapphier help with warm and cold regions, and does make an elemental blast while keeping the gem intact. Also works with minerus construct.

My favorite boomerang is a giant boomerang with electric Lizal horn, amazing

To save hover stones when helping Addison, you can use recall on something else to lock it in place!

Before Dr. Wily wanted to take over the world with Robots, he was a gamer.

Frozen meat to sheild is great!💯

Gloom hands and Phantom Ganon can be easily defeated using a topaz on your arrow. Works well with most everything except Lynels.

On Despawning constructs: Every item has a Despawn Distance. A Construct inherits the longest Despawn Distance from it's component parts. Star Fragments and Dragon parts have the largest despawn distances in the game, if for no other reason than allowing you to collect them, thus adding one to a construct forces it to stay active. They also have the side effect of Glowing while at a distance, making it easier for you to locate it after running off to do something.

Dazzle fruit works good for the gloom hands. Especially with a lynel bow lol

Light dragon, Dinraal, Naydra and Forosh scales are a good star fragment replacement!

I swear my boomerangs have had their flight patterns altered by awkward fuse combination... my favorite boomerang fusions are farosh spikes on small ones and silver lizalfos tail on a giant one

With the hover stone myth, you can also use stakes, you just gotta position it flat against the wood

Number 10 goes hard

I'm surprised the balloon torch thing was even questioned, pretty sure the first time you use one you're supposed to use a torch to light it? With Impa in the Dragon's Tears quest? You can also get a fireplace under the balloon and it works, same goes for weapons on fire

Heres one I found by happenstance; If you sprint and can get away from the gloom hands chasing you, you defeat them. I did this in lockup and didnt realize it. I just bolted until I didnt hear the music anymore and came back and there were two Dark Clumps laying there. I thought it was strange. So I essentially did the same thing when I went to get the Hylian shield and kept running up the stairs past the torches and came back after the chase music stopped and there were 2 more Dark Clumps. No Phantom Ganons either.

ive always used a pile of wood with the balloon. i thought it was gonna burn out or turn into a fire place but you can actually collect it even after it burns forever.

#4 you can surf with Ice and frozen foods, but what about the bees? I hear you can attach the hive while the bees are still around and have them as companions to smite your enemies

Fun fact: the first myth is confirmed by Nintendo themselves in the game, one of the autobuilds you get from the mines has torches on air balloons

Neat video dr wiwey

One way to deal with gloom hands effectively that I found out is to first shoot it with a puffshroom, then go to the center of it and perform a heavy weapon charging attack. The spin will keep damaging all the hands at once and it won't grab you since it's blinded with puffshroom.

I've been collecting apples like that for a while now.

You can take our the Gloom Spawn in one shot with a 3 shot lynel bow and a topaz. If they're not dead after the first shot, the next one will do it, but if your aim is half decent, one shot is all you need👍

Putting dragon scale on anything you build does extend its range. It has been proven too. But if you get to far away. It will still despwn.

You can use a spring more than 1 time via the fuse entanglement glitch

"honey is slippery" Are you high? Honey is sticky...

Something even more interesting concerning the ballon you can stick a bundle of wood in it and light it on fire and it won’t turn into a campfire and will stay lit indefinitely and also lift the baloon

For the longest time, until I eventually saw it in a video, I didn't even know the intended way to use the balloon was with a flame emitter. I thought you were expected to get some wood out and set it on fire. I thought to myself "well this is awkward how you gotta place it carefully and not stand in a spot that you get burned" and I also thought it was weird and unique that the balloon wasn't using battery. This is just a testament to the insanely good design of the game. There's no need to hold your hand through the intended solution to anything since most players who don't figure that out will end up figuring out some other workable way to do something.

5:50 Weird, I swear that when I fused a talus heart to a giant boomerang, its flight path was at least different to the point that it wouldn't return to the original throwing position
