The warm tunic from the old man is missable?

Spoiler

He already told me he is the King of Hyrule

It is. He lives in a shack on the southern edge of the Great Plateau (the starting area). Read his diary in the shack to find out what he wants in exchange (it's easy).

Ty.
I found the tunic in a chest inside his shack.

You bet! In a chest, huh? Hmm, it must just give your the Warm Doublet after he reveals the thing he reveals and takes his leave.

I didn't do the recipe thing. I found the Warm doublet in a chest probably because he already revealed me the thing and he left, and therefore i couldn't give him the recipe.
This means that the double is not missable.

Well, it's missable in the idea that you could never know it's there whatsoever.

Yeah true

Now the real question: has anyone found the third location for Hestu?

Directly north from the 2nd location (the stable) by a long way, in the lost woods (korok forest)

I found the master sword! And it requires 13 hearts to obtain it...Unfortunately this means I need to complete 21 more shrines to be able to use this almighty blade.

I been selling my jewels when needed for rubys. Oh well. When A blood moon happens those bomb-enabled black rocks are reset as well.

Don't forget that you can respec.

When I found the Master Sword I had 10 hearts but was on my 3rd wheel of stamina. Did a respec and got the blade asap.

Really? I currently have 7 hearts n 3 stamina boost. As well as 3 spirit orbs. How do you respec Link? 9 more shrines is easier then 21

In Hateno Village, go downhill heading the entrance and search around that area. You will find a horned statue that will make the trade for 20 rupees each.

Thanks. I just learned from a few you tube videos the stamina wheel is completed after being powered up 5 times and you can have a max of 3 wheels. So 40 spirit orbs to max it out. The health meter can be maxed to 30. 20 from shrines for 80 orbs. 3 you start with. plus 4 from the main dungeons. That's 27. Someone showed you can max out both. So What does this mean? It means there are 3 additional containers hidden somewhere.

That's a good question...I have no idea.

Maybe there's something hidden that no one found yet.

 

[famouslutt]

Just working my way around the far north, getting towers. There's one tower in the middle of a puddle w/ 3 of those annoying, dancing lil KKK wizards (!) I just sniped one from afar, and snuck past the other two. Ugh. Hate those guys!

I stayed behind the terminal to avoid his spear striking Link and taking occasional shots with non-normal arrows

Heh. It's exactly what I did. Except I just used normal arrows. Pretty easy, doesn't seem much benefit using special arrows rly. Did a similar thing on second evo hiding behind ice blocks.

There's 120 shrines/spirit orbs and 4 heart containers from Divine Beasts. 4 spirit orbs for an upgrade, so that's 30 upgrades.

Just double checked then, you can only upgrade the stamina wheel 10 times. Each wheel is 5 upgrades, so to fully max stamina, that's 10 upgrades/40 spirit orbs. Health can get to 7 hearts with Divine Beasts without upgrades, but to get to 30 hearts, you need 23 upgrades/92 spirit orbs.

There aren't enough spirit orbs in the game to max out both Health and Stamina. There's 3 upgrades/12 spirit orbs missing.

Thanks; I ended up in the pitch-black forest, but got everything solved yesterday.

Maybe you can kill the E. Shen-wrongs or maybe these are rewards for completing every kind of sidequest, much like the tunic being the reward for completing 120 shrines?

Google it. You can see a video with both maxed. Out there somewhere are 3 additional containers. Will know for sure when my guide comes this afternoon. I am leaving for work in a few mins. Will post tomorrow what the guide says

Just found out 'Snowling' (Pondo's Lodge by Hebra Tower) has the fastest return on rupees. It also has a moderate chance of failure, but at 20 rupees to 20-50-100-300 rupees gained, definitely worth it; it's free (20 rupees returned if you knock down seven to eight pins) to 280 rupees (strike) net profit. You'll get a 'free' Ice Rod if you win on your very first game.

I recommend taking some time to engrave the tactic in your mind--after your first full attempt, it's pretty much: lightly tap diagonal Up+Left, press A to 'pick up', lightly tap diagonal Down+Left, press R, repeat.

 

[RemixDeluxe]

Did anyone find a shrine in the very northwest corner of the map in the Hebra region? I've been trying to find where its hiding for a long time and I cant uncover it.

I'm also trying to uncover a shrine in the Warbler's Nest (thats west of the Rito village)
