Why is it so hard to find the tails on these lizards? I mean I see them when I fight them and yet I hardly get drops. I’m having flashbacks of hunting Goretusk Livers for pie in Westfall.
This isn’t specifically helpful for you but: I duped them whenever I needed them, and then one day realized that I was already a bit of a mini-god and didn’t need every armor set to be 4⭐️ and stopped caring.
I also duped. Fuck grinding, life is too short for grinding.
What’s duping? How?
I’d be amazed if they hadn’t patched it by now, but there was a glitch where you could duplicate items. It involved going to a certain chasm, flying / climbing back out of it, positioning Link on the boundary between middle and lower regions, then firing an arrow with item attached using bow with double or triple shot. The arrows would cross the boundary then hang in the air, falling back to earth and you could pickup the items that were attached to them (so obv if you attach 1 diamond to a triple shot, you get 3 back).
Like I said I’d bet dollars to doughnuts they patched it long ago. I hate grinding enough that I’d consider installing orig version with no patches to utilise this glitch!
Thanks

For regular play, not boss fights, my favorite is the stealth set. You can have some really interesting encounters sneaking up on things, and it makes farming fireflies much easier.
Barbarian set, 100%. It’s good to have each elemental set (eg lightning, ice, fire) 4* for protection against a particular tough elemental foe, but imo the barbarian set at 4* is pure insanity in terms of damage.
Though I guess, that was the beauty of the game as I saw it, if you wanted to be a barbarian tank you could do that and use the right foods to protect you as and when… or you could get that damage boost from food and use different gear.
Do you mean to say, that food bonuses do not stack with equipment after you max out a bonus on one side?
Sorry but I don’t know the answer to this. My assumption was that you’ve got 4 stars for damage, and you can get there with food or armour bonuses; with that multiplying the value of whatever weapon is being used. Not sure whether that’s right or not.
They don’t stack from what I heard from someone else. I’m not testing myself, so I might be wrong.
Food attack up buffs stack up to the 3 attack up buff with armor. You can kinda see it if you have 1 piece of armor and the eat 1 attack up food. After 3 stacks it’s wasted though. I normally eat defense up, but other attack up armor like elemental or bone proficiency stack as well.
Hylian is easy, Hero of Wind isn’t too bad and has damage bonus. Hero of Twilight has same bonus but took me a bit longer.
I don’t know if I maxed any other sets. Did some partial upgrades on Climbing Gear and the elemental sets and that was good enough.
If you check the totk object viewer website, it says tails have a %25 chance of dropping. It feels so much rarer but I started counting my drops and the ratio actually is 1 in 4.
For ice and fire tails I recommend the Gerudo Canyon SkyView Tower. Gerudo desert for electric as well. Electric sucks because they are so spread out compared to ice/fire.
I definitely recommend visiting the totk object viewer if you want to farm legitimately. Otherwise just dupe like others are saying.
Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll check it out.
25% seems way too high than what I am actually getting.
You’re chopping their tails up in the fight! It takes a masterful hand to win against a Lizfaldo and leave their tails intact. This is our head canon in our house and it started with those goretusk livers a decade ago. My wife said we had to hit them perfectly in order to not damage the livers. We weren’t masterful enough in our hunting techniques. It seemed rational enough and added some reasoning that made the grind more enjoyable.
That makes sense. I’m in for the long grind and must perfect my strikes.
If you have played ‘ghost of tsushima’ then you know what to do : present yourself to your foe and face them head on. Be honourable. As soon as you attack them from behind the prize is lost.
Just Nintendo, preventing you from making those awesome whips… XDDD
