I often get that in multiplayer mode. I guess it's when my JoyCons desync. I never have this bug in solo with the pro controller.
I'm a bit disappointed because the Wii U version was more stable. I had several other bugs too, and some are very annoying :



+ I'm pretty bored to have to add the P2 at EACH new mission (and P1 have to select P2 character etc. it's a bit annoying)

But the worst is how the option to disable cinematics feels useless... I forgot how this game likes to break your rythm.

[The unhappy post]

Holy shit that bug is bad. How does that even happen lol? I also agree that having to add P2 each mission AND select thier character is incredibly archaic.

Edit: Oh right, actually closing then booting the software back up. Lmao I feel dumb.

I wouldn't put it past KT to do DLC---and to be honest I think I'd like them to wait a bit for a sequel so they have more games to draw from. But we have SS which sort of got left out of DLC, and then Triforce Heroes and BOTW so...my DLC wishlist!

Free DLC: Groose.
The Groose is loose! His weapon is the Fire Elemental "Bomb Bag", and he's also equipped with Digging Mitts. I envision Groose as basically a jock, so he'd show off and basically kick and toss bombs around like various sports---like his WPS on a regular foe would be doing an Inazuma Eleven-style kick, and his WPS on bosses would have Mogma pop out and throw him in the air as he spikes a bomb at the boss. And of course his Special is the Groosenator. I'm thinking his Strong Attack would be he could bury up to three bombs underground, which would explode when an enemy steps on them OR when he finishes a combo string they'd all explode.

DLC Pack #1: Skyward Sword Pack
* New Character: Gaepora. His weapon is the Light Elemental "Book", which allows him to summon ancient Hylian symbols to attack, as well as transform into a golden owl---by holding down the Strong Attack he can study, filling up a bar. When the bar is full pressing the Strong Attack again allows him to transform into an owl, and he can warp to any captured keep as if he was an Owl Statue.
* New Weapon: The Electric Elemental "Timeshift Scepter" for Impa, since it's implied to be Sheikah technology. Using this weapon allows her to reverse time and summon various mechanical lifeforms from the Lanayru Province of SS such as Beamos. Using the Strong Attack she can leave herself vulnerable as she becomes the old Sheik from SS, charging up her Magic and Special very slowly. Her Special could have her reviving that lightning dragon from SS, and maybe her WPS have the robot pirate appear.

* New Adventure Map: Skyward Sword!
The bottom of the map is the Ground, and the top of the map is the Sky. To transport between each, you need to battle on a square marked with a Loftwing (to move up) or a Sailcloth (to move down). On the ground are Goddess Cubes, which appear within the map in a keep and by freeing the keep and keeping it safe till the end of the battle you'll unlock a corresponding treasure above. Items include Scrapper, who can retrieve unique Item Cards from the Ground which you must take to a certain area in the Sky, Mogma Mitts, which can be used on holes, Gust Bellows, which can blow away gust, Whip, which can pull levers, and Time Stones, which are used to reveal enemies. Find all three Ancient Tablets!

Groose's upgraded weapons, as well as Gaepora + weapons and Impa's new weapons are available here!
Also various outfits based on SS---forgive me if these have been done

- School Uniform Link, Zelda, and an original one for Lana and Marin.
- SS Impa
- Zant that makes him resemble Scrapper's color scheme?
- Dodoh outfit for Tingle
- Faron and Eldin-style outfits for Ruto and Darunia.
- Koloktos armor for Toon Zelda's Soldier
- Scervo-based outfit for Tetra.

DLC Pack #2: Triforce Heroes Pack
* New Weapon: The Darkness Elemental "Pom-Poms" for Toon Link, which allows him to summon two Link to aid him like in Triforce Heroes---as well as some references from Four Swords thrown in as well, though with only three Link. It's "Darkness" because the Links act very over-the-top and pose and such, which just confuses the enemies.

* New Adventure Map: Hytopia
The "final" Adventure Map, this map is designed to help you with the other Adventure Maps as rupees and materials are given out a-plenty through the varied challenges! The challenges are very varied, such as limiting you to a team of three certain characters, making you use all the same elemental weapons, a "girls only" battle, and stuff like that---also characters are randomly given different outfits available to them to spice things up! There are only three unlockable items on the map itself, and no Item Cards---the Pom-Poms and their upgrades. Every time you complete a mission you gain "Hero Points", but only on the first time you get each rank---C is 1, B is 2, and A is 3. But they don't add up---so if you get C, and then get A, you'll get 2 in total.

At the Madame Couture space you can use Hero Points to buy various costumes, there is one for almost every character (except Groose and Gaepora since they're optional DLC, and the next DLC set) at least drawing from the outfits from Triforce Heroes, or their characters, plus some bonus stuff like the BS Legend of Zelda baseball cap for Link and Zelda. Basically, an Adventure Map dedicated to costumes---which are a big draw of Musou's imo.

Final Expansion Pack Breath of the Wild
* New Character: Urbosa. Wields the Electric "Daybreak Shield", but this also comes with the Scimitar. Can use lighting attacks, and also call forth those sand seals and surf on her shield. When finishing certain combos she leaves electrical orbs on the field, and when using her Strong Attack they cause them to erupt into electrical explosions.
* New Character: Kass. Wields the Water "Accordion", I haven't really thought much about how he'd play but---c'mon, he'd be cool to see. I'm thinking possibly utilizing the other three Champions' powers in some way, maybe giving him support skills that aid the morale of his team to mix things up?
* New Weapon: The Light Elemental "Sheikah Slate" for Link, which can use the various powers such as freeze, stasis, and magnetism. Also as you collect materials a bar fills up, allowing you to ride on the Master Cycle which goes super fast and plows through enemies.
* New Weapon: The Fire Elemental "Frying Pan" for Zelda. Based on the cooking mechanic, and also referencing the broken weapon mechanic as it will sometimes shatter (but she'll just pull out another one!), every combo string gives you a certain ingredient under your life bar. Using Strong will mix these together, and the resulting food based on the ingredients will give you a special boost temporarily in a various area.

* New Playable Stage: A completely new stage based on Breath of the Wild, mixing all the key areas in and with the giant robots (I so forgot a lot of terminology!) in the background. Also introduces some new variants of enemies based on their appearance in BOTW, as well as new mini-boss enemies in Guardians, who are very powerful. When playing on this map you can find Ancient Arrow upgrades which allow you to hit their weakpoint, much like Gohma.

* New Adventure Map: The Wildlands
This adventure map is completely separate from the rest---every character is reset to level 1 and don't have access to their regular items, instead you have to level up separately in this map and use the weapons you find. Every character can obtain up to Level 3 of any of their weapons though but they aren't carried out of this mode. However, like in BOTW, each weapon will break after one use so save the best one you can for when you need it. You obtain rupees, but you cannot spend them in this mode---there's no Fighting Dojo available nor Smithy. The only thing that carries over in terms of character progress is Materials and Badges.

The goal is to journey to each of the four Divine Beasts, with each one giving you a different unlock---camel is Urbosa, bird is Kass, gecko is Frying Pan, and Elephant is Sheikah Slate. The upgraded weapons and costumes are spread out on other parts of the map, but certain rewards are unlocked till you beat the Divine Beast square---like say lava is block one item because of the gecko, or the water is too high because of the elephant. There are no Item Cards thus. There are guardians which move around on the map, and stay on spaces---if they're active on that space, they'll appear in the mission to bother you, but if you win they'll be gone for awhile. There's also the Blood Moon which occurs on occasion that resets the guardians and makes the enemies in each level much tougher, but results in better rewards.

Yes, we had to play while watching the other player screen =.=
We finished the mission though. But on the next mission, still this bug ! Even restarting the mission didn't solve the problem, we had to reboot the game.

I was funny and challenging lol.

Woo, beat the main Legends mode---Ganon seemed waaaay easier than I remember. But those Ganondorf chapters, damn, straight fire.

What's the easiest way to fight Ganon to grind his materials other than Legends? I see Young Link needs some stuff from him.

Does anyone have any issues with the textures/details in some of the maps from time to time when playing? Earlier I was having issues where rocks and paths along the ground would be flickering as the camera moved or the lighting on the walls and floors would become a jumbled mess. I hadn't been playing for too long, only like an hour, before it started happening. Really hope something isn't wrong with the switch.

I don't know how I feel about killing Gorons. It ain't right.
I'll kill as many of those suckers as I have to in order to get enough breastplates to unlock everyones basic combo upgrades. Anyone have good farming missions for them?

Phew, I now have every character and weapon except Toon Zelda, Yuga, and Toon Links' Sand Rod. Unlike Toon Link, Medli, Marin, and Ravio, it seems like these ones are gonna require me to play quite a bit into their respective Adventure Mode maps. Well, Toon Zelda is at the beginning of the Grand Travels map, but she requires an item but I'm not sure which one. Yuga and the Sand Rod will take some work to get... Anyone know the fastest way to get to these?

They're both not that bad actually. Use the Wall Painting on the fissure of the third stage on the Lorule map to teleport you near to Yuga.

There are two starting points for the Grand Travels map so just choose the one on the left and head up. It's actually not that bad difficulty wise, but you might want Toon Link with a level 2 weapon first.

Trying to play Ganon's Fury for the first time and i've gotta ask :
Am i doing something wrong or is Ganon really supposed to have paper-thin defense? A dinolfos hit takes out 20-30% off my hp and a boss hit is like 99% of my hp. (I'm currently level 22 in that mode)

Pardon me if it's been covered extensively, as I haven't read through much of this thread.

Got this game the other day and enjoy it fine enough. I am wondering what is up with rumble? I have no rumble on any of my controller options, docked or handheld.

Sweet, thanks! Also, just so I know what to go for, do you happen to know which item is required to unlock Toon Zelda?

Awesome, thanks again! I didn't have any items yet so it wouldn't even let me search the tile to see what item might be needed. At least now I can make a path straight to a cannon item then, lol.

It doesn't always help but you can still press A to zoom in on the tile. Sometimes you can spot what the obstacle is.

I forgot to mention it earlier but on the Lorule map make sure you use the Wall Painting item after you beat the stage with fissure on it and not before.

for some reason I absolutely love playing as Toon Zelda

it's probably because of how satisfying the animations for her basic combo are

I've done all of this.
Rank based rewards always need an S rank and you need to get an S rank with the character whose icon is next to the heart. The other hearts listed require you to find the chest that has it in one of the forts and again requires you to use the character whose icon is on the heart container and open the chest.

It's possible you're getting character icons mixed up as Toon Link and Young Link have similar icons. Toon Link's has blond hair and Young Link has brown.

Edit: Know what? To make this easier, take a screen cap of the map screen w/ rewards that's giving you trouble and we'll see what's the problem.

Have all Level 1 and 2 weapons now, most of Level 3 and a good deal Level 4. Going through the Termina map but hit a wall where I need to get a stick on a stage where I can only use Ruto or Midna, characters I've barely touched.

Welp

For those two just abuse their final combo *the big wave for ruto and the run and slam for midna* With ruto after a few waves you can go into her other stance and just snipe dudes to death with a huge wave ender

Managed to get Ruto's Level 4 weapon so it made it easier.

I've been focusing on getting all keeps but lately I've been hitting the KO requirements for A rank way early so that's been making things easier

Just got the four giants so am on the final bits of Termina :)

What is the resolution and framerate undocked?
Going to guestimate 720 and some 25-35 fps. (if fps being locked is what you want, look for another genre, koei tecmo wont have framerate locked on consoles any time soon :( ) I just know being docked makes the game run a hell of alot smoother and feels like something in the 50s.

Don't even have everyone's level 1 yet, but I did get Sheik's level 4 plus weapon
Lol I just did the same yesterday. Plus an Amiibo gave me a 3-stars 4+ right after I unlocked it. Today will be smoother.
I think I'll aim Ganon's 4+ next (he's my Demolition Man lol) and Cia's lvl 4+ (my favourite no brain farmer).


Oh and I just received my Mayflash adapter to use my old Wii U controller. Farewell latency, terrible D-pad, warmth and quick low battery. I'm in love.

it looks and runs absolutely fine. a better wii u version of the game, essentially.
Yup I agree, just throwing this out there for anyone who cares about a constant fps, i'd say 90% of warriors like games will never have a locked framerate except on pc IF its a good port. Hell if hyrule warriors were on the ps4 it'd still find a way to not be a locked 60 fps.
i've learned to take what i can for this genre and i'd say the undocked mode runs as well if not better than the wii-u and is absolutely better than the 3ds/n3ds version

Interesting. i looked it up, it's not far from the beginning but I guess you had a decent Skullkid to get there? Care to remember which level he was or how you passed that?

And would the characters' animations be extremely jittery when running? I have had this exact thing happen too, closing the game and reopening it solved it immediately. And I haven't had it happen since, though it probably could creep up again.

The damage requirements for A rank seem super lenient this time around...I can lose like all my life and still scratch by with an A Rank.

I did it easily with a lvl 50 Ganon (lvl 1 swords haha) + lvl 20 Skullkid. Multiplayer makes life really easier in this game :D (OK Skullkid was only there to kill mass trash monsters, it's not one of my main characters so I'll upgrade him later, he's funny to play).

Overall the game is wayyyyyyy easier than the Wii U one.
I only played Legend mode on 3DS so most of the improvements must have been in the 3DS version, but yeah so far I've 1-ranked on firts try almost everything.
I believe the programmers did a quick workaround for the damage requirements. Before you could only take 10 hearts damage to loose rank 1 now it's like twice your total of hearts!
Plus, the fact you can use secondary and tertiary characters. That allow you to often use your tank (likely Link) while collecting A rank reward for other characters.
And to save time during the battles.

I believe only the most difficult maps will give some challenge, if not all my character are past lv 150 by that time.

Ah OK. I play solo so I have to use him only!
