Thanks for watching! You basically can miss any weapon with modifiers, so feel free to share your favorites! And now that you know some things you can miss, here is a playlist of all the videos I have on farming any material! The playlist is in order of how the materials show in the inventory. Hope it helps!

Perfect for people with collectors anxiety when it comes to open world RPGs

*Me who’s already missed all of this stuff:* Interesting…

To be honest we should have had a basement or bulk / mass storage area in the house you can buy and renovate. Unfortunately there are only 9 spots to store equipment in the house. It’s nice to know that you can have an enhanced Hylian Shield at some point.

A good picture you can miss is the blue dragon, Naydra, when its covered in malice on the snowy peak.

Kite shield should've had extended airtime whilst surfing.
Also very informative video nikko. Botw is such an awesome game.

[Aderon]

I feel like for BotW's sequel, there should be a dedicated drop for every possible droppable item by end-game, that way players will always be able to get specific loot-drops without worrying about game progression locking said items. Even if that does mean gold Moblins with pathetic shields.
Also, funniest yellow augment item is long throw Throwing Spear. Yeet!

One thing I hardly ever see mentioned is the fact that the Forest Dweller's Bow also has a VERY fast draw rate, comparable to the Falcon Bows in fact! This makes it one of the best all purpose default bows to use in the game.

There's also an infinitely respawning one just slightly SW of the Lanayru Tower in a small cave behind some bombable rocks, making it very easy to restock after every Blood Moon. You can easily float right down to it from the tower, and there's even a Hinox in the nearby trees to restock on some good weapons too.

It’s crazy to me this game is already five years old yet there’s still such a massive community around it. I’m working on my second 100% play through and I’m still not board!

[VideogamePianoMan]

A couple things that I noticed from your video that I hadn't seen comments on yet:
1) Pretty sure Cursed Bokoblin skulls only appear/spawn in each of the divine beasts (Hyrule Castle malice will only spawn Moblins/Lizalfos skulls), so they are another "missable" picture (both in Normal and Master Mode)
2) It's worth noting that Blue Lynels only "go extinct" in Master Mode; Normal Mode players shouldn't have to worry about them
3) Another enemy that "goes extinct" due to MM upgrade tiering is the Guardian Scout I (the ones that just shoot at you and don't use melee weapons); they will only appear in Divine Beasts and certain, non-respawning DLC shrines iirc.
4) Finally, as far as unique pictures go, Kakariko's Ta'loh Naeg shrine has a unique tutorial Guardian Scout II in that it is blue and "unpossessed" compared to other Test of Strength scouts. Since this scout doesn't respawn after the blood moon, your only opportunity to snap a pic is before completing the shrine, and that is unlikely without a) purposefully ignoring it until you have the camera, or b) happening to break all your weapons and being told to return later.

That being said, I absolutely adore your resource videos for BotW -- the way you play and enjoy games is very similar to the way I enjoy playing as well. Thank you for all your hard work!!

The house should have had an option for a storage room or storage chest to store extra meals, weapons etc for collecting. My one wish for the next Zelda game is that they allow weapons to be repaired instead of shattering. Even the most precious weapons given to you after beating a divine beast can shatter and it’s annoying to get a new one.

[PrincessZelda_is_My_Side_Chick]

I remember on my first playthrough, I traveled to Hyrule Castle really early in the game. I definitely died a bunch exploring through the castle, but was able to score some really powerful weapons really early in the game, and I was so damn excited to stumble upon the Stalnox fight and was even more ecstatic when I finally beat him and found out my reward was the Hylian Shield! It was most definitely an awesome surprise and that stressful exploration ended up getting me extremely well equipped for the many many hours of exploration I had left in the game.

4:10 There is actually another forest dweller Sword in the shrine with the blue flames where u have to spin attack at the very end to activate 6 Torches at once. Don't remember the name of the shrine bit I think it's somewhere in the Eldin Region.

[ElDuende]

Great video! As an addendum, I'll point out there are Forest Dweller's Swords in shrine chests in Shora Hah and Kah Okeo and if you want it for a picture there is a renewable one you can temporarily have within Trials of the Sword.

"I'm not interesting in collecting every item."
*[watches video]*
"I must collect every item before they're gone"
FOMO's potent

[verindictus]

12:58 Actually, I think that no matter how far you've leveled up Link, a Blue Lynel can always be found in the first guard tower on the path leading to the Castle entrance. So you can always get a picture of him.

“Hey guys, PointCrow here. Do you ever get collector’s anxiety?”

[aarvlo]

i like the breakable weapons system because it gives you an incentive to find loot but i wish there was a way to "scan" and remake any weapon you got at some point even if it was really expensive

[BrianStorm]

It should be noted both the Kite Shield and the Forest Dweller's Sword can still be photographed after you've "missed" them, because they're on display at Selmie's Spot and the Korok Swamp Trial entrance respectively.

I'm too anxious *to* wait. Especially in Master Mode, I just get the shield from the castle hinox and then if you want another, build tarrey town. (The shield will last about 30 hours of normal use.) Not worrying about a shield actually made it easier to think about being a completionist, for me personally. I just reserved one shield slot for the hylian shield.
