First time I had to face an elemental talus in BotW I almost shit my pants; but by now I look forward to them, as the fight is trivial and the loot is great.

Being able to sneak up their arse with Ascend is just OP.

Now, if only gleeoks were easy to kill too...
...is what I used to say; but today I found the way. So, making a flying machine to get up to it during its last face didn't work, as it made spikes rain on me with computer-like precision; but fellas, hear me out: you can kill them!

I just sniped it with the bow by using wings on the arrows. Seems to do extra damage to each head during the last phase.

I got my first gleeok parts from Koltin rather than from defeating one myself; but no more! They have their days numbered. :pepegun:
First, I notice that the bottom of the mountains have that texture bug where it stretches in vertical lines. It's faint, but you can see it better if you zoom in. Very disrespectful.

Then, I make it to the sky labyrinth and Link gains the ability to phase through walls horizontally; but only that wall.

This reminds me of that time in BotW when I was climbing in the Gerudo Highlands and go under a piece of blanket-like rock and kept climbing but wasn't able to emerge on the other side, so I had to climb back down and exit through the hole I went in or perish there.

They must've given the North part of TotK's map to the same guy. I bet he's a diversity hire at Nintendo. One of those Brock-skin Japanese niggas.
People keep telling me to go get the camera. If only that was possible, but alas, Robbie doesn't want to help Link. He must secretly work for the Yiga Clan.

Then I found a map on a sky island that leads to two locations in the Depths. I wonder what that's about... I also found a gigantic statue down there, but haven't inspected it yet. Massive. Like the goddess statue in the Forgotten Temple.

And another island had some inscription but nothing could be done there. Is there a mission where Tauro teaches Link how to read Zonai or something? It's already pretty bad that guy is probably boning Paya, but to have to ask him for help too? That's too much, Nintendo. :pepereeeee:
@Rasterman Yeah dude this is like a 200-300 hour game. I didn't do ANY of that shit, I'm going to die someday.

@natsock @rasterman you need the camera to take pictures of those inscriptions and show them to the zonai researcher in kakariko. not tauro, another guy. there's one on the ground at lookout landing that everyone is crowded around and that's how you start the side quest.

you can get the camera by progressing robbie's quest with the depths (where you get the paraglider) and then going to robbie's lab. he'll help you get the camera and ask you to take some photos of stuff.

the islands that have these inscriptions are easy to find once you unlock the full map by visiting all the towers. they're all shaped like flowers so they are visually distinct on the map.

@beardalaxy @natsock Hmm... This might be a postgame kind of thing for me, then. :blobthinkingfast:

Is there a way to unlock the sky map? The towers on land do nothing; but the light roots work. I haven't seen the sky equivalent.
@natsock @beardalaxy Not what I wanted to read; but I suspected it from the beginning. :pepesad:
