Yeah, I screwed up there.  I destroyed most of them with bombs, but ran into a few that the bombs weren't damaging for some reason.  I destroyed one with an ancient arrow, then realized that there were updrafts beneath them that I could throw the bombs into and have them float up to hit them.

You can also Magnesis any metal object into them to kill them instantly.

Wakey Wakey Thread cause a teaser for the direct sequel to Breath of The Wild was revealed during this morning's Nintendo Direct!

It has been said in interviews with Eiji Aonuma that it will be darker than Majora's Mask, and some of the younger staff members on its team have been using Red Dead Redemption 2 to draw inspiration from.

Gods damnit.  I loved BotW, but I am not shelling out for a Switch.

There is supposed to be a cheaper Switch model coming out this year. That's when I'm planning to take the dive.

Already have a switch.

I got one of the early vulnerable ones. (Hey, I LIKE being able to play retroarch.)

Anyway, my favorite tactic: Take the Great Eagle Bow to Hyrule Castle, and zap the guardians with ancient arrows. The three-round-burst effect means that it's always a one-shot kill (At point blank, anyway. The spread might mess you up at longer ranges).

No need to waste your ancient arrows on guardians, though - you can just interrupt their laser charge up with Stasis rune or by shooting them right in the eye (easier at point blank obviously).

...that post is literally two years old...and I also learned a few more tricks after that.

Well stop being wasteful in the past!

I'm sorry, man! I'm sorry!

I ended up with like 750 ancient arrows anyway, so never minded 'wasting' them.

Not really sure what you're saving those arrows for if not guardians.

At that point I was collecting just to collect. Nothing was much of a challenge at the end, I just didn't want the game to be over

Ancient arrows can, as far as I know, destroy any non-boss enemy in a single shot, the downside being that said enemy doesn't drop items. So if you really want to wipe one specific opponent off the face of Hyrule, they can be quite useful. Lynels in particular are a good use of ancient arrows if you don't want to get caught in a prolonged duel with one of them.

I shot a guardian scout in one of the shrines of the Champion's Ballad (die in one hit) quest, and it didn't kill nor do very much damage at all. Maybe the shot was off its mark, IDK. Ended up using shock arrows to stun-lock instead.
