LOZ BOTW: Mastering DLC Pack 1

Playing Legend of Zelda
Photo-A-Day #4462

I am enjoying the Legend of Zelda DLC Pack 1. With it you get a whole bunch of new armor that you have to find throughout the world and a whole bunch of new challenges. The most important challenge for me is the Sword Trials. This is old school gaming at its best. I say old school because there are no breaks and there is no way to save your progress. Also, if you die you start all over. It is frustrating but I do like a challenge. With 45 separate floors or challenges broken up into 3 fifteen floor sets there is a lot of work to be done.

You start the floors with nothing. You only have the abilities that you have mastered with you Sheikah Slate. The Sheikah Slate is a magical tablet that grants you different powers like generating bombs, stopping time and mastery over magnetic items. With it you can get started picking off bad guys. You have to find everything you can as you go through the floors to help you through all the trials. It has been fun to do and I made it through the first 15 so far. I hope that I can work through the rest of them to upgrade my sword. Then I will attempt to play the game on the hard or master level.

How to use amiibo with The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild on Nintendo Switch

Link and Zelda Amiibo characters
Photo-A-Day #4349

Playing The Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild has been a ton of fun. Today I took out the amiibo characters of Archer Link and Zelda for Breath of the Wild. They each give great treasure chests full of items and if you are lucky you can get really rare stuff.

After I made today’s video I went online and learned a bunch about the use of amiibo characters in the game. I’ve been checking out other YouTube videos on the amiibo figures and have come across some great information and also fun uses for even MORE amiibo characters. The old Zelda related ones can give you even MORE great stuff!!!

However, you can use every amiibo character that you have. When you put on a Legend of Zelda related amiibo figure then you get a treasure chest in addition to extra items. The treasure chest may contain really rare items and the additional items might be really good, too. I realized that I have more amiibo than I thought I had and used all of them to get a bunch of great stuff including arrows, ingredients and more. I wish I had thought to try the others before I made the video. You can even use the Bowser and Donkey Kong Skylanders/amiibo characters to gain more items. I swear that Donkey Kong dropped bananas.

On another note, I’ve drained the battery more than once playing Zelda, it is awesome!
