WHAT'S CHANGED IN MASTER MODE? | The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild DLC Pack 1

Since this video released, Data miners have found a hidden XP system within the game contrary to what I said in the video.

please stop commenting the same damn thing over and over. Utilize your time to engage in something actually beneficial to those who might read it.

Do you have to start the game from the beginning to try Master Mode or can you take an existing file and just start from there?

If you die do you have to restart from the beginning?

summining: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WHAT A SH*TTY GAME

What's the name of the music in the beginning? What song from the OST? I want that for my studying.

I’m sold. I will buy this version but not play it yet until I have completed the normal first.

Link in cutscene: Defeated a small army of goons to protect Zelda.
Link in gameplay: Killed himself by pulling the chest too close.

Thanks I just start playing this month, and reaching end game, been asking "where is the golden enemies?" turns out it's a hero mode exclusive, lol

Thanks for the info. Not gonna bother with this at all, I already immensely dislike the durability system and basically only fight when necessary as is (which is not how I like to play a Zelda game... Other games sure but not Zelda) so no sense ratcheting up the tension.

I am liking the game overall for my first playthrough but out of the more recent entries I think TP is still my favorite.

I prefer this than what you'd want in a new game plus, changing your play style is what makes it fun.

Guardian scout v1 has 100 hp now

It's a shame that health regen completely ruins Master Mode because of weapon durability.

The first enemy I saw was chuchu

IMO the only thing that makes master mode hard is the regeneration.

Thank u

The best part of this game is beginning, when everything is a gamble. A little risk can net huge gains. Late in the game, the enemies get boring…and I mean every enemy. Flying guardians, Lynels, even Gannon’s forms and end are super easy. The only enemy I have trouble with…those damn octoroks! In the water! In the GROUND?! Sliding everywhere. Move over Gannon, these enemies are by far the worst. Master mode just seems to slow everything down a bit. I noticed some minor differences though, unless I’m wrong.

Botw master mode = Elden Ring

Jesus Christ loves you ❤️

Me to bokos: EAT THE FREAKING POND

i also would attack every enemy i saw in normal mode but in master mode you really need to ask your self? what do i lose and what do i gain. And most times i just run in take their weapons and get out instead of fighting them this also in my opinion makes getting hetus maracas much harder even though its right on a cliff

"killing enemies doesnt net you any exp"
they do actually, they improve weapon buffs, enemies difficulty etc

Me: All right, time to tackle master mode!
1 minute later
Me: Nnnnnoope.

One good thing about master mode is silver enemies spawn earlier, which is especially useful because you can just farm gems at the colleseum

I know this is old but you missed the part where there is no anti 1h-ko mechanic and guardians can mix up their attack timings

I don't want more difficult enemies as much as more. So many open areas.

Did you know: the only red enemy in master mode is the lynel on the Zora mountain? I think it’s for the quest where you take a picture that you show to a zora to get the zora pants.

Actually, you do get a hidden EXP stat, i believe if its high, harder enemies (such as silver enemies) appear more frequently.

Isn't the weakest weapon technically the Korok leaf? If I'm not wrong it can land 1 damage hits, but since it's reasonably not usable as a weapon I'm okay with what he said

You understand why they implemented the really powerful armors?
Likely they were implemented for master mode,majoras mask and the Phantom Armor are really needed for master mode

Yeah new game plus woulda been what we needed. 😭

Your closing comment is so apt. I'm finally playing master mode after dropping the game for a couple years. It does change the way you approach everything and overall playstyle you use lol.

Does master mode restart you’re progress

Thanks this really helped

i hit the sub batton and like batton and its not like i need to see this video cus i am about half good as austin john plays and he is VERY good! (and im on MASTER MODE) XD

What da music?

I am in the quarter of story in zelda botw and im noob buy i think this mode is perfect for me :p

One mistake…. Killing enemies does give XP points… the only enemies who don’t give XP points are chuchu’s and the Bats …. There is a video on how much points you get from each enemy and how much you need to make the enemies step up one level….

Actually there is a "xp" system in the game but it is not in your favor. It basically scales up the enemies to how many youve killed. Kill a single gold lynel and all the bokos youll find will be gold. In other words, avoid unecessary combat before ganon by all means

there actually is a hidden exp system. if you’re not looking for it, you’re probably not gonna see it. but like master mode, you see it in the enemies. the lynel on ploymus mountain is the only enemy that doesnt change. i dont play master mode, so im not sure if its in there, but ive started noticing that as i play more and complete more shrines, there are new enemies in places where they shouldnt be. for example, in my first playthrough, i was only interested in main quests and didnt focus so much on anything else the game has to offer. but with my second playthrough, im doing more exploring and more exploring means enemies to kill. with this hidden exp system, the more experience link has determines which enemies he’ll face and where. in my first playthrough, i had never seen a white bokoblin, but in this one ive been seeing them in camps with blue bokoblins, with the white ones replacing the red ones. and you may be thinking its just a chance thing, but i promise you its not. the lynel in the coliseum ruins? blue, however the one i saw was white. why? hidden exp system. theres a video on here explaining it and everything

Master Mode was actually easier than my first run for me, mainly because of the op dlc and prior knowledge. The only difficulty was at the start, where I just avoided danger and used korok leaves to throw bokos into water/a cliff. But after the great platue, I just went straight for the phantom set (for boosted atk), then for Majora's mask (to avoid combat). After that, I just walked into the castle with the mask, got op weapons and shields, and then you're set for the game. It just goes to show how the dlc items are crazy strong

in master bone

I’m doing my first play through right now as a friend let me have their switch to play it. I love hard difficulties so I decided to play through on master mode. Biggest complaint is everything breaking (maybe they could have upped weapon durability for master mode?) and just how insanely fast enemies regenerate health. Sometimes you don’t even have a chance.

why is it a dlc

Calamity Ganon is a bigger pain in the butt to fight in Master Mode because he regenerates health faster than every other monster.

Just like money inflation🙃

btw there is a behind the scenes XP
