♦ Rules ♦


1. Stay Civil

This is a place for friendly discussion, memes, guides, art, gameplay questions, screenshots and the like. Discrimination and harrassment won't be tolerated.


2. Mark Spoilers

It is okay to post about "related games" (such as Age of Calamity and Breath of the Wild) but please use the spoiler "censor" and do not put spoilers directly into the title, as the censor doesn't work this way. Posts about other Zelda games might be suited better in general Zelda communities, like the ones listed at the bottom of the sidebar.


3. Offtopic Posts

Anything not related to BotW, like politics, religion, non-Zelda games etc. is better suited elsewhere and will be removed. The same goes for NSFW material.


4. No Advertisements

It is okay to post about merchandise, but links to those "design your own merch" sites will be removed, as those are almost always scams featuring stolen art. Affliate links will be removed as well. This isn't Etsy.


5. Provide Sources

If you're going to post art, comics, guides, screenshots etc. that are not your own OC, please mention the name of the original creator and ideally also a link to their portfolio/website. (Pinterest is almost never the original source)


6. Suggestions are Welcome!

Feedback, requests for improvements and constructive criticism are always appreciated ;)

I did a sequence break and found Mineru before getting The Fifth Sage quest. Is it possible for me to still 100% complete the game or are some of those quests now forever incomplete and not finishable? Also will I get the quests if I talk to the right people?

Yeah you're good. I completed Mineru before triggering Pura's speech about extra sages, all it did was result in a 'you already completed it??'

If I’m not mistaken, quests don’t count towards 100% completion. But as others said, you can still complete any quest, ~~irregardless~~ regardless of fulfilling the goal first. Link will talk and you’ll get the “you already did that?” dialog (understandable in a non linear open world game).

"irregardless" is not a word. You only need 'regardless'.

It is a word. A nonstandard word (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/irregardless). But I deserve the scolding, for learning these kind of expressions and nonstandard words from native speakers. I'll refrain from using it in the future. Cheers.

Actually, it was interesting to read that merriam link, I think they were a bit light on the topic.

I agree, its been around for ever, so its a "word" and we know what someone means when saying it. But it doesn't make it correct.

IR as in ir-respective it a negation, and it is the same as regard-less, in this case LESS is the negation. So technically ir-regard-less is a double negative, so it equals 'regards'. Totally technically incorrect and language wise completely illogical ( IL- !! ).

I'll give you a hint though, Merriam-Webster is an American company, and choses American-isms over the vastly more used British English. Perhaps have a look at the Oxford dictionary for a more lexicographic accurate resource.

Oh! Ok, got it: American dictionaries bad, British dictionaries good. Cheers mate!

I think you'll be fine, other quests if you do them before time people will just stay talking, you interrupt and it's started and done.

Not relevant to your particular situation, but I went to Korok Forest before "I was supposed to." Spoiler, but there are Koroks that spawn after some trigger that kindof guide you how to go about getting into Korok Forest. Mostly near to where the BOTW entrance to Korok Forest is. But since I got there without their assistance, I never got to see those Koroks that help you get to Korok Forest.

Not that it'll affect 100%-ing or anything, but I saw some of those Koroks that help you get to Korok Forest in a YouTube video and was a little bummed that I'd missed part of the content in the game.

Once I'd ventured to the depths for the first time, I made it my mission to find some way into the work forest. It was there that I ran into the Gloom Hands for the first time. I was woefully under prepared. It was traumatic. And now I learn about this.

I also found Mineru just because I needed to know what was hiding in that big storm cloud and stumbled my way through the clouds without any other guidance. Once you do finally activate the dialogue, the NPC's just kinda shrug and the quest completes as soon as you get it.
