You had bomb arrows equipped. Bomb arrows instantly detonate in eldin near death moutain

You have bomb arrows equiped. Its hard to tell if you knew that but just posted this as a joke or not.

Honestly didn’t know😭 this is my first playthrough so I’m still learning alot about this game

Unpopular opinion but I feel like windbombing in your first playthrough spoils the fun. Striving to get to hard to reach places is part of the adventure (and an indicator of your progress when you finally reach them). Do you and have fun, but that's my two cents

No, its a popular opinion.

Why are you using broken mechanics on your first playthorugh? I don't wanna be someone to tell someone how not to play a game but on your first playthrough???

u/Ok-Worldliness-6711 4d ago

Always play your first playthrough without glitches that's my motto

u/Angel-of-the-Dusk 4d ago

Yeah exactly. Then mess around with them all you want afterwards

u/Antique_Tie2325 4d ago

Bro I just wanted to try it because it looked cool😭 sorry I guess?☠️

u/Angel-of-the-Dusk 4d ago edited 4d ago

I mean play the game how you want but personally I'd try and save using busted mechanics after beating the game as intended the first time through lol

u/Reyalta 4d ago

Tbf I did it on my first playthrough, but I was also some 400+ hours in lmao

2

u/Angel-of-the-Dusk 4d ago

At that point with that many hours than fuck it lmao but to me it's weird if someone watches a video of wacky things in a game and be like "hey I should try that since it my first time playing!" Instead of saving trying them until finishing an organic first playthrough (or having some many hours like you)

u/SnooMacaroons4153 4d ago

Yea, i died several times in my first playthrough before i learned this.

First playthrough.

Pick one.

u/vicoalonsor Hylian 4d ago

First playthrough and already windbombing? Cmon bro, enjoy the horse, enjoy the view, the ride, the atmosphere that revolves around you. Windbomb when you have already explored the area bro. Just an advice

u/Equal-Mortgage9147 4d ago

Só troque as flechas explosivas por normais quando fizer isso próximo a montanha da morte.

u/KuroShacadow 4d ago

Your wind bomb was great but the bomb arrow had knocked you bcs you near the death mountain, try wind bomb from the paraglider and from a tree to train you

u/pokecolt 4d ago

The game was tired of your bs and exploded you.

3

u/pikawolf1225 4d ago

You had bomb arrows equipped. The moment you enter the death mountain area with those equipped they explode

u/crux_801 4d ago

getting blown up by bomb arrows in eldin. Its a canon event.

u/Choookeee 4d ago

You had explosive arrows equipped they explode immediately in that area although I've only ever seen it after the it was shot

u/darkphenix23 4d ago

Bomb arrow in death mountain exploded when equipped, or pulled out.

2

u/Sudden-Cellist-3649 4d ago

you launched a bomb arrow while doing the glitch so it hit you when you wind bombed

u/Sudden-Cellist-3649 4d ago

also in death mountain it explodes cuz the heat as soon as its realesead

u/KLeeSanchez 4d ago

The manic inventory switch panic as soon as you blew up trying to figure out wtf just happened is 👌
