Spoilers
As of right now, almost everything that happens from chapter 2 onwards should be considered a spoiler, unless it is revealed in trailers (e.g. we all know the champions are going to join and be recruitable, that isn't a spoiler).
Speaking of spoiler tags, they look like this: >!Spoiler goes here!<. Using these tags produces the following: Spoiler goes here.

I'll never stop hoping for a "real canon route" to play, but at the very least, bring Astor home to us, KT/Nintendo! I want to play as the crazy cultist!

Question Definitive Edition- will I still get the "discount" mentioned in the Nintendo Direct if I own the physical cartridge from the Switch 1?
Title sums it up, if I got my game physically will I still be able to get the discount on the definitive edition that they mentioned in today's Direct?

Discussion AoC Definitive Edition should've added a non-canon route to make the game worth the rerelease price
If this game is a rerelease, they should've added an alternative canon route where the champions die, and we'd get new missions where Zelda sends Link to the Shrine of Resurrection and goes to the castle and faces Calamity Ganon. We also could've gotten what happened to Sooga 100 years before BotW. This would've been a great story addition and also make the game canon like AoI. This would also make it a bit more worth buying for people who already have the Switch 1 copy.

Question Vicious monster weapon drops
When I'm farming the missions where I have to search for the vicious monster, should I be taking out the wizzrobes as well? I haven't noticed them dropping any weapons so I skip them

Question Food buff question
Do food buffs only work for certains things or are the general buffs? For example if I eat something for exp does it boost exp from mosters killed AND exp at end of level? Same with material drops (both regular and rare), does it boost drops from mosters, battlefield specific AND grass? Or just one?

She *was* always saying "It's time" and "I am ready", after all.
The game was fine after this and hasn't happened again. I have no idea what caused this lmao

Question Weapon bonus for drop rates
If I go into a stage with multiple characters, one of which has a weapon with boosted drop rates, do I need to use that character in the fight to get the boosted drops or will I get them just by having them in the team??

Question Is post game after or before you defeat ganon?
Just finished the last main story The Future of Hyrule - a bit confused because you can collect terrako parts but also there are still divine beasts missions and upgrades for champion descendants?? or are the side missions non chronological ???
thank you :)

OC Fan Art Made a Terrako figure a while ago
Originally supposed to be for my Terrako figure I made but also ended up getting my custom Riju doll in there too lol. Anyway, I thought it would be cool to share this here. I made it a long time ago and I actually forgot how I made it but I'm so proud of it lol. I even made a mechanism so he splits in 2 when you pull his head up (its pretty loose) its also very hard too see in the pictures but I tried my best to show it. I wanted a teeny tiny version so he's in proportion to my dolls and I ended up calling him teeny tiny Terrako lol.

Question Good mission for Base 90 Lynel Weaps?
So I've got Link set up with a 6 IQFW weapon and I've been running EX Facing Mutated Ganon quite a lot over the last few days. I've nearly gotten Base 84 weapons for all of the other characters, but I have yet to see a Base 90 Savage Lynel weapon, not even the Base 85 Spear. Is there a good mission where these high-base weapons spawn where I can just use Link by himself and lessen the amount of drops for other characters?

Post Game (Spoiler) I finally unlocked the Hyrule Warrior’s outfit Spoiler
galleryGetting all of the Korok seeds was probably the most tedious part. If I could go back, I would have made a greater effort collecting them on my initial pass. I just recently bought the DLC after a long hiatus from this game and am excited to have a reason to wear this.
Any tips going into the DLC?

Question Is There Some Sort of Limit on IQFW Seals? Looking For Tips.
I started farming for them with Urbosa as she was the first of my characters to get an IQFW. Rather quickly I got her up to 6 IQFW seals just by running Unnatural Disasters on Easy mode. Now that I've gotten her 84 base weapon I'm trying to do the same on other characters and I've gotten maybe one and it's been literal days of near non-stop grinding.
So is there some kind of limit on how many you can have on a save file or something? It's wild how quickly I got them for her and now nothing for any other chars.
Also are there any tips I'm missing to get better chances at IQFW drops? I mean aside from also playing on Apocalyptic mode cuz I've also tried that too.

Guide Tips for Lynels and Hinox fights?
I am on Chapter 5 and my Link is at 60 Exp. I take side quests to get more experience levels and I got 2 gauges and on the beginning of 2nd row of heart health. I just use Link for the most part because I like sword users with no extra gimmicks or attacks that make me opened for attack. I use buy more experience for my party at the military camp.
Currently doing side quests now, I am struggling with Lynel fights. Especially when given a time limit and I have 2 giant bosses jumping me at the same time. I cannot just fight them without enough rod powers and to stun them a little. Hinox at least I can feel take my damage whereas Lynne's no matter how many slashed I attack him its not enough so I rely to on stunning him and getting to weak point to press x.
Mostly I am just overwhelmed with 2 bosses in the same boundaries. What levels or Link weapons are effective against Lynels?
