  • The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom features a world that rivals (and in many ways even surpasses) that of Breath of the Wild in terms of its scope. Whether you’re new to Zelda’s open-world format or you know Hyrule like the back of your hand, you should expect things to have changed in many unexpected ways - including where to find armor, great fairies, towers, and many more secrets. There’s a lot to unpack both in the opening sky island tutorial area and once you arrive back on the surface, and it’s easy to get lost and not know what to do next. In this video guide, we’ll give you tips on things to look out for the moment you start playing Zelda: TotK.

    Veteran tips:
    -Dive down from the sky map
    -Follow the main quest up until you part with impa in the air balloon.
    -uncover every tower to unfold the map
    - complete 4 cities in the main quest to unlock all 4 champions.
    -get all the shrines and max out hearts and stamina (this is the time to find all the armor and equipment, koroks if you desire)
    -optional: finish all side quests.
    - finish the main quest and smoke Ganon.
    If you follow TOTK in this order you will appreciate the game so much more.

    So right away...how can it be said that totk "rivals" in terms of scope botw if it greatly expands on the space available?

      Since a lot of the terrain is the same, it's not exactly its own game. Its fantastic, but it's more like botw 2.0.

      yeah but majority of the armor you can find in the open world , you can still get different fabrics from them though

      ​@@roodinverse the comment above yours literally says the opposite... in this game all the amiibo armors can be found in the game without amiibos, unlike botw where they were required. The only exclusive items amiibos give you are paraglider skins, which are purely cosmetic. They also don't drop weapons anymore like in botw, only outfits. In botw your comment totally applies: there were both weapons and outfits exclusive to amiibos.

      ​@@roodinverse Yeah the amiibo are only really useful if you wanna get the armor a bit early.
