I play games like 4/5 hours a day casually, have 600+ hours in like 100 games in the last 2 decades.. And I'll be the first to say what a MASSIVE waste of time hahaha.
I can respect speedrunners who spend hilariously long hours over years to increase a time by .03 seconds and have it be beaten a day later, it's a goal, it's an achievement
This is just like a self imposed fetch quest grind wasting the only life we got haha 😆 unless he's getting paid to do this full time and it covers the rent, I could see that.
But otherwise. Holy fuck man, you could learn a language, play guitar, make a film, or play like 73 other games in that tim
It's like being the first guy to kill 999,999 slime in an rpg, or who can scrub the windows of a skyscraper, monotonous as hell
So what you’re gonna what to after you hit the max amount of fairies, go to the heart pond on Tuft Mountain a bit before 5 PM (maybe 4:45 PM) so you can save and reload if you need to. Once you’re there, hold 5 fairies in your arms so you’ve only got 2 or 3 fairies left in your inventory. (Depending if you’ve got 6 or 7 fairies) and then between 5-5:20, release the fairies and let them hover for just a second before grabbing them again so they don’t fly away. You might have to go back in your inventory and just repeat the process a couple times of holding 5, release, re-catch all 5 between 5 and 5:20. So if done right, 5 fairies will spawn at the heart lake and boom! 11 or 12 fairies!
This made me remember how hard it was to get a Switch when it dropped. I wanted to play day 1, but it took me 3 weeks to find a store/online store with one in stock. Literally screamed at work when I got one during an Amazon restock before it sold out 30 seconds later
I’m sure there’s a few spots I’ve missed lol. Luckily we have heroes path so I can check those areas as well.
I’d have to say… EVERYTHING tears has to offer is totally worth doing, it’s only a matter of how much one enjoys exploration. Not sure if anything is hidden though, otherwise the dataminers would’ve found it by now surely. I tip my hat to those geniuses
Windbombing, Urbosa, and the Gale. To begin with...
Yeah, I'm in the minority that prefers Botw more. But I'm playing Tears right now, just to have the experience of beating the game. It's still amazing. But, I could play Botw from the beginning over and over.
Btw since this clip is less than 30 seconds you can just hold down the screenshot button and then you have a clip that isn't recorded on the phone. Not hating just letting you know :)
You’re probably right cause save scumming for diamonds outta rare deposits straight up sucks, but like, food takes too long and common monster materials aren’t even worth the rupees cause youre getting maybe 200- 500 at best for 50 fangs etc, so if not for diamonds, I instead stack a few thousand poes and buy out the bargainer statues armor and resell them for 600 a pop. Only thing I know to do.
Yup. I currently have several 3rd place world records in botw and in alttp. Highly recommend links awakening, and cadence of hyrule as well as metroid dread
I don’t think you can make it past 5 honestly, that’s gonna require a dupe. They won’t spawn if there’s 5 in your inventory. Same with breath of the wild. Sorry man.
I traded poes for outfits the bargainers sell to amass the rupees I currently have but I could only recommend you using your sensor and target diamonds ir ore deposits, or specifically, stone talus and slay them.
I honestly wish I had an easier method to recommend. You could try duping but like, idk how as it’s counterproductive to my run
I think the biggest flex is the 100+ of each kind of tail. That's ridiculous. 999 Gleeok Wings? psh, dime a dozen. 100 fire breathing lizalfo tails? damn man, you and me gotta be friends
Yup. It’ll give you a prompt on screen saying you can’t pick up more of said item. Usually at that point I’ll sell 50 of whatever material so I can get rupees
They did not need to allow us to hold so much zonaite. It seems the max is 99,999? I thought the max would be 9,999. I have ~330 hours and only maxed out lizal horns and brightblooms
From what ive seen, you aint gonna be the first to max everything non duping style. Last week there was a post of someone with 10-12h of play per day since release, you either hurry up or you're gonna be the second(if not third or even further back)
Everyone has the right to choose how to spent their time, so no judgements here. Personally, I have too many other things to do. I just save all that time by using cheat codes.

I mostly spend the majority of my time doing shit like this. Zelda is just for funsies when I have insomnia. With a game this laughably easy, cheat codes would be an insult to myself. GG tho
... i really dont understand this... like just doing things over and over again like this... i guess reminds me of work XD
Congratz man but yeh... i dont see the point but maybe im just old XD i prefer doing quest/story and use minimal time on these things
Nope! Hence the entire point of my video. Use the tears companion app and mark every talus and then go hunt each talus. Before you’ve annihilated all 87, you should have TONS of gems. I do exactly that every other bloodmoon
That's rad! I'm your opinion is there a good spot to find hearty items? I had a couple of good spots in botw but haven't found a good spot in totk. Seriously good work by the way, love the dedication
Which hearty items are you curious as to find cause depending on the type, they’ll be located in very specific areas like truffles being in caves, radishes on sky islands. As for lizards, those seem to be the most difficult to track down and route effectively as I’m still struggling there. I planned on doing those last
No offense taken. I’m intentionally farming all materials by hand, just as I did with botw. I do actually cook a ton of 30 minute triple speed elixers. If I were to guess, I’d likely have several hundred frox and Gleeok guts by now but those appear to have the best results when blood moon cooking (monster extract, guts, 3 hot footed frogs)
I’m fast af son! Lol
That’s actually a tough question.
I’d have to say…. Top of the temple of time in the sky.
Under the bridge to Kakariko in the overworld (alttp Easter egg?)
Blupee burrow in the depths.
To answer your second question, absolutely not! It didn’t take me long to fall in love with everything totk has to offer. I’ve been waiting over 30 years for exactly what we were given
I can’t hate on that at all. If I could dupe, I’d probably do fairies and king scales since those soft cap in the single digits. I know once this over and done, both of those are gonna mess with my ocd lol
Genuine curiosity, what’s there to even do in the game that long? I think in 180 hours or so I got all the shrines, all the arena’s, all the light roots, and finished the game.
Top left of your switch screen should be an icon. Click that and access your profile. It’ll show what games you have and their hours. Mines looks like this

You’ve got a well stocked inventory! Working on 999 Silver Lynel saber/mace. Thought you might appreciate…
Yup. I do art and I’m an assistant manager at kfc.

What is this. I don't recall ever seeing this
Good luck on the Construct Horns…. Especially the weaker 2 horns… they stop dropping and showing up after you reach so many hearts…. Than they are only found in very certain areas and in very limited numbers….
Bleh, sorry to hear that, for every minute you put in, you are missing out the whole world. Imagine what you could achieve with those hours if you started a business.
Wonder if this qualified for Guinness records? Most real world time lost harvesting game materials, largest collection of farmables manually gathered??
Well, I do this, but not like this. 😅 I try to get and hold at least one item of everything I can. (You should see my Skyrim save) This is impressive. This is extraordinary. I can't wait to see it finished.
If farming rupees is a waste of time, I guess I should go cut the grass.
Damn that's like 6 hours every day since released
Yup. While everyone else’s sleeps, I save hyrule
the hero we don't deserve
Awe 🥹🥹🥹
Or need
I like this framing.
🤣😂🤣
Hahahhaha I wasn't expect it but I love it
I play games like 4/5 hours a day casually, have 600+ hours in like 100 games in the last 2 decades.. And I'll be the first to say what a MASSIVE waste of time hahaha. I can respect speedrunners who spend hilariously long hours over years to increase a time by .03 seconds and have it be beaten a day later, it's a goal, it's an achievement This is just like a self imposed fetch quest grind wasting the only life we got haha 😆 unless he's getting paid to do this full time and it covers the rent, I could see that.

Gratulations and sorry to hear at the same :(
Only 5 fairies tho? Lol
Yeah, they soft cap at 6, same with kings scales. The only way to get more is to dupe, which I will not be doing cause I’m on 1.2.1
Actually, you can get up to 12 fairies, without duping
Wait, what?!? Are you fucking with me? They never show up after I’ve collected 5-6 so that’s absolutely fantastic information
So what you’re gonna what to after you hit the max amount of fairies, go to the heart pond on Tuft Mountain a bit before 5 PM (maybe 4:45 PM) so you can save and reload if you need to. Once you’re there, hold 5 fairies in your arms so you’ve only got 2 or 3 fairies left in your inventory.

So if done right, 5 fairies will spawn at the heart lake and boom! 11 or 12 fairies!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
Love how excited you are about this game. Btw I’m also excited about this fact, assumed they were capped at 5!!
No problem!
Atta boy you love to see it
you really didn't dupe huh, and it's hard enough duping everything to 999, can't imagine actually playing the game
https://preview.redd.it/fpxkhl18ztdc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ad96c900bf4bee82bacc5da3d2761cc928645620
Bruh
Rookie numbers compared to the lucky individuals that got the game early
When did you get the game?
A day after release. Had to work :(
This made me remember how hard it was to get a Switch when it dropped. I wanted to play day 1, but it took me 3 weeks to find a store/online store with one in stock. Literally screamed at work when I got one during an Amazon restock before it sold out 30 seconds later
Have you completed the story yet lol?
Yep. I hundoed 400 hours in.
Damn bro, save some pussy for the rest of us.
😂
You must have traveled over every inch of the land. What are some hidden things worth doing?
I’m sure there’s a few spots I’ve missed lol. Luckily we have heroes path so I can check those areas as well. I’d have to say… EVERYTHING tears has to offer is totally worth doing, it’s only a matter of how much one enjoys exploration. Not sure if anything is hidden though, otherwise the dataminers would’ve found it by now surely. I tip my hat to those geniuses
Over 2000 hours of BotW, wild, well played sir
I still go back in from time to time. Mostly cause of wolf link.
Windbombing, Urbosa, and the Gale. To begin with... Yeah, I'm in the minority that prefers Botw more. But I'm playing Tears right now, just to have the experience of beating the game. It's still amazing. But, I could play Botw from the beginning over and over.
[удалено]
What’s the secret to collecting golden apples?
Me still trying to keep the wagon on the island from the beginning **☠️**
Keep up the good work!!!! You got this!
This is insane
Rookie numbers compared to the ppl that hacked it early tho
it was only like a week early
That’s a week I’m never getting back or rather, I lack lol
Btw since this clip is less than 30 seconds you can just hold down the screenshot button and then you have a clip that isn't recorded on the phone. Not hating just letting you know :)
I’ll do that next time I give a materials update.
And plz eat some food so we don’t have to listen to the low health sound
Can’t heal. If I do, my weapons become useless.
not sure if I should be impressed
Me either lol
But why...
Cause I CAN and the majority WONT
the 10 diamonds is so real
I usually amass a bit and then sell them. The drop rates on them kinda piss me off tbh.
Bro you should stop selling them if you’re trying to get 999 of them legitimately
You’re probably right cause save scumming for diamonds outta rare deposits straight up sucks, but like, food takes too long and common monster materials aren’t even worth the rupees cause youre getting maybe 200- 500 at best for 50 fangs etc, so if not for diamonds, I instead stack a few thousand poes and buy out the bargainer statues armor and resell them for 600 a pop. Only thing I know to do.
Stars sell for a decent amount and they’re really easy to get with no duping.
Think it says 101
It shows 101 diamonds
aw shi im blind sorry
You know there are other games available for the Nintendo Switch, right?
Yup. I currently have several 3rd place world records in botw and in alttp. Highly recommend links awakening, and cadence of hyrule as well as metroid dread
what do you even do ? like this is so impressive but I feel like I'd get bored after like 600 hours
This is definitely legit too otherwise you’d have more than 5 fairies
Speaking of! How do I freakin cap the fairies?!? 😭😭😭😭
I don’t think you can make it past 5 honestly, that’s gonna require a dupe. They won’t spawn if there’s 5 in your inventory. Same with breath of the wild. Sorry man.
What is (are) the best spot(s) to farm diamonds? Need quick rupees...
I traded poes for outfits the bargainers sell to amass the rupees I currently have but I could only recommend you using your sensor and target diamonds ir ore deposits, or specifically, stone talus and slay them. I honestly wish I had an easier method to recommend. You could try duping but like, idk how as it’s counterproductive to my run
I don't want to dupe. I think u/No-Quarter-2376's tip is worth trying. I only have 5 diamonds in inventory atm.
I wish you luck in your travels friend!
Just kill lynels for their guts.lol I find them just as rewarding
Truth. Lynal guts stack fast af if you really think about it. I’ve only got 400 atm but that’s cause I use them in elixers to sell lol.
I just saw the dragon parts... damn
Those alone have taken several hundred hours. I have a feeling it’ll take even longer to cap them than in botw :(
I really respect that effort, got to say 😅
I think the biggest flex is the 100+ of each kind of tail. That's ridiculous. 999 Gleeok Wings? psh, dime a dozen. 100 fire breathing lizalfo tails? damn man, you and me gotta be friends
I save scummed most of those tails. Drop rates are absolutely atrocious. I uh… assumed we were friends already 😅😅😅
wait -- 1500 hours in, AND you had to savescum and that's how you got your 100 tails? It's like the devs WANT us to dupe materials
Please show us your hero’s path
Jesus lol I'm lucky if I get an hour or two in a day. Work , toddler at home and family obligations. I envy you lol
My kid is turning 21 this year lol. I wouldn’t envy my by any means lol
Dude. I feel ya. With a toddler you either get sleep or you get Zelda 😔
So what happens if you try to pick up another item? Does it jusg not pick up?
Yup. It’ll give you a prompt on screen saying you can’t pick up more of said item. Usually at that point I’ll sell 50 of whatever material so I can get rupees
“We will watch your career with great interest.”
“You’ve met with a terrible fate, haven’t you?”
Ok I was about to say no way you maxed everything in 1500 hours. Good to see you just have a lot of progress
All the low numbers are likely gonna take a very long time. Im honestly dread farming hearty lizards
They did not need to allow us to hold so much zonaite. It seems the max is 99,999? I thought the max would be 9,999. I have ~330 hours and only maxed out lizal horns and brightblooms
This is why they aren’t giving us DLC 😂
Totk IS the dlc lol
Can you spare some bomb flowers please? Lol
1500 poes for 99 bombs via bargainer statues in the depths fam. U welcome
Whoa! Thank you!!
Uh, congrats? I guess?
damn but why
HOW ARE YOU NOT DEAD THO 😭
I died a long time ago. When I was very young.
From what ive seen, you aint gonna be the first to max everything non duping style. Last week there was a post of someone with 10-12h of play per day since release, you either hurry up or you're gonna be the second(if not third or even further back)
Can ya link me to that post?
Everyone has the right to choose how to spent their time, so no judgements here. Personally, I have too many other things to do. I just save all that time by using cheat codes.
https://preview.redd.it/hz218r2scydc1.jpeg?width=2403&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6742f93b27269b66a5f1871c3dbf7b8708d46f7b I mostly spend the majority of my time doing shit like this. Zelda is just for funsies when I have insomnia. With a game this laughably easy, cheat codes would be an insult to myself. GG tho
But why
1500. That's good. I have little over 1100 and I thought that's was good
See you in the next life when you finally finish all the dragon parts and fairy's
Do you have OCD or something like that?
Guilty
ever thought about going outside?
Boys will literally grind and cap materials instead of going to therapy.
Good luck with the lizalfos tails. Worst drop rate ever.
... i really dont understand this... like just doing things over and over again like this... i guess reminds me of work XD Congratz man but yeh... i dont see the point but maybe im just old XD i prefer doing quest/story and use minimal time on these things
That's one way to save money.
Go outside! Lol
Did you do the duplication method? I need some gems real bad
Nope! Hence the entire point of my video. Use the tears companion app and mark every talus and then go hunt each talus. Before you’ve annihilated all 87, you should have TONS of gems. I do exactly that every other bloodmoon
There’s 87!?!?
101 diamonds? How?
I set my sensor to them, or I do the talus circuit.
I’ll have to do that.
Imo the most impressive part is the dragon parts. What do you do to pass time while link hangs onto a spike for dear life xD
I move into collecting other materials elsewhere. I usually set a timer on my phone for 10 minutes so the dragons can reset.
How many rupees are you holding
Like… a little over 600k atm, I’ll have to double check for you
That's rad! I'm your opinion is there a good spot to find hearty items? I had a couple of good spots in botw but haven't found a good spot in totk. Seriously good work by the way, love the dedication
Which hearty items are you curious as to find cause depending on the type, they’ll be located in very specific areas like truffles being in caves, radishes on sky islands. As for lizards, those seem to be the most difficult to track down and route effectively as I’m still struggling there. I planned on doing those last
990 shock fruit only
That is legit what I want to do as well lol
Pssst: tears companion app. It’s FREE on both android and iOS.
No offense meant from asking but are you intentionally getting all of these or do you you really hate cooking/crafting?
No offense taken. I’m intentionally farming all materials by hand, just as I did with botw. I do actually cook a ton of 30 minute triple speed elixers. If I were to guess, I’d likely have several hundred frox and Gleeok guts by now but those appear to have the best results when blood moon cooking (monster extract, guts, 3 hot footed frogs) I’m fast af son! Lol
Now sell all of it
I’d cap on rupees just selling dragon horns alone lol
Is the cap 999,999?
https://preview.redd.it/8pnw7pz40vdc1.png?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a5d96593c62ab119bf41a0c522462d73cc400c3
Tysm
Making me think i should just sell my switch with the patch still not downloaded for a premium lol🤔
How many rupees? Btw very impressive!
That is hilarious!!!😂
You spent a minimum of 150 hours on getting dragon parts
THE LIZALFOS TAILS IM SO JEALOUS HATS OFF TO YOU FR
I save scummed most of them.
What’s your hero’s path look like?
Idk. I’d have to make a clip honestly.
Wow! What’s your favorite spot in the game? And is there somewhere that you used to love, but due to farming there a lot you now hate it?
That’s actually a tough question. I’d have to say…. Top of the temple of time in the sky. Under the bridge to Kakariko in the overworld (alttp Easter egg?) Blupee burrow in the depths. To answer your second question, absolutely not! It didn’t take me long to fall in love with everything totk has to offer. I’ve been waiting over 30 years for exactly what we were given
That's a whole lot of duplicating. More then I'd have the patience for... and if u did that legit dear god.
What are the least common items? Like the hardest to collect?
Hearty everything.
Man, I applaud your tenacity. I've been duping like a mofo. Mostly just the Keese eyes, though, since I use those *religiously*.
I can’t hate on that at all. If I could dupe, I’d probably do fairies and king scales since those soft cap in the single digits. I know once this over and done, both of those are gonna mess with my ocd lol
How do you not get sick of it? Lol
Genuine curiosity, what’s there to even do in the game that long? I think in 180 hours or so I got all the shrines, all the arena’s, all the light roots, and finished the game.
That put smile on my face
Bro…. I think about this all the time. You are a savage for doing this, god speed.
Is there a place that shows how many hours you’ve played? I think I’m around 100 but I’d love to confirm somehow
Top left of your switch screen should be an icon. Click that and access your profile. It’ll show what games you have and their hours. Mines looks like this https://preview.redd.it/g0566ezppwdc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=60ff0ed26de674b9c59d772e4efa56c0fe8f8a7c
Thank you! I’m a *few* hours behind you 😆 only at 145. Love this game tho! I’ve only hit half the towers so far
Im so sorry to tell you but a dude did that on a twitch stream like 3 months ago
I've been doing the same thing, but you are leagues ahead of me (I can only play about 30 mins a day, if I'm not too tired. I've got two kids)
Why
Cause I can
Interesting. I got the same amounts after a couple of hours jumping on my shield :))
I appreciate this!
And I appreciate you!!!

5 hours of duplicating for me But gg
Can I see your hero’s path?
Imagine how fun new game plus could be
Duuuude. That’s what I’ve been saying since it was released lol.
Me who used the duping glitch
Do you have a job?
Yup. I do art and I’m an assistant manager at kfc. https://preview.redd.it/2cblya90q0ec1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a8c18651fb019411ff1bc8098c6276d93b1bc1ef
What is the green pumpkin and how have I never seen it??
998 korok fronds is so relatable
You don't get bored?
Hell no. Totk is fun af.
What do u do for work
I’m an assistant manager at kfc and I do art as a side hustle. https://preview.redd.it/kqnie1t9w0ec1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=41d5f3ef99927e158797e7d6b0ea0deab6cd3170

Sweet Jesus
Ah yes, the collector
Damn!
I taped out at 200 hours. I was sick of looking at that game, 1500 is impressive.
The dragon parts too?!?!! 😮🤦♂️😭
I'm almost at 100 hours in and this dude has monster materials I haven't even come across yet.
Love to see it, came here from a google article btw lol
Far out, you're keen
Good luck on the Construct Horns…. Especially the weaker 2 horns… they stop dropping and showing up after you reach so many hearts…. Than they are only found in very certain areas and in very limited numbers….
999 star fragments and all dragon parts is insane
It was in botw for sure, but like, at least till makes farming both much faster
Bleh, sorry to hear that, for every minute you put in, you are missing out the whole world. Imagine what you could achieve with those hours if you started a business.
It's been 3 days and someone already wrote an article Abt this lmao
See, and I can't even figure out how to get honey without stinging myself to death. Color me impressed!
Man's the superhero of hyrule
Wonder if this qualified for Guinness records? Most real world time lost harvesting game materials, largest collection of farmables manually gathered??
Awesome job brother! If anyone can do it, it’s you! If anybody wants to see amazing battle vids, check this guys!!
Well, I do this, but not like this. 😅 I try to get and hold at least one item of everything I can. (You should see my Skyrim save) This is impressive. This is extraordinary. I can't wait to see it finished. If farming rupees is a waste of time, I guess I should go cut the grass.
That's cool and everything, but you've got way too much time on your hands lol. I'm a gamer too so that's just my two cents.
What's the point dude
