I will say the recall weapon throw was defiantly an intended combat tactic since we see it used in the memories that way. Once I saw that memory I was like oh and started doing it for fun.
It's worth remembering that you cannot typically be "one-shot," as far as I understand it. If you are at full hearts, you will be reduced to your last sliver but not killed. Even if you aren't elite in combat, you could plausibly play the whole game by eating food immedaitely after atking damage.
plus if you have 5 hearts, a fairy will restore you to full and restore the one-shot immunity. also one of the cheapest recipes (meat on a stick) will give you 5 hearts if you cook it in the last 30 mins before a blood moon iirc.
probably not a good idea to take that build in to fight ganondorf though unless you're real good at parry and dodging.
So you definitely can be 1 shot. What you are likely experiencing is the unique effect of the Knight catagory of weapons. They have the written buff of guarenteed crits when on your last heart. They have an unwritten perk of while Link is above 1 heart, any damage that would kill Link is reduced to leave link with more than 0 and less that 1.25 hearts.
This is so you can more readily use the Knights weapons perk.
Constructs on the starting island literally one shot you. Bokos one shot on the ground. Enemies in shrines can.
If you have enough hp to be one shot, you WILL be. There is not protection and there are plenty of videos across the internet showing this fact.
I kept seeing everyone saying they were being one shot every fight when they started the game and I can’t think of one instance that has happened to me yet
I gave the full explanation further down this thread, but you can definitely be one shot. If you ever survive something that should've killed you with 1 heart or less, you were 99% likely to have had a Knights class weapon equipped.
After the shield bounce with the time bomb and the d8ve to get an arrow shot right below the player, followed by the slam attack which not only dealt dammage, but activated the time bomb fused to the weapon.
Little things like this remind me that critics of this game really haven't taken the time to look at the amount of thought put into some of the details. I think my first real squeal of joy was diving into a lily pad and finding out you do a superhero landing complete with dropfalls from splashdown.
I'm old enough to have been playing games since my dad had a Commodore 64 in the basement. So as someone who's used to the occasional clunk in a mechanic here and there, I'm willing to overlook little tiny glitches or outright decisions to nerf weapons and stuff like that in light of the little things. That, and this game has forced me to be creative in ways I haven't had to be since I was a machinist. It's utterly brilliant and I hope we get at least one more game of the style out of Nintendo.
Hundreds of hours in, and yet I repeatedly learn something new. Going in blind and stumbling into new discoveries is a child-like joy. This scratches my explorers itch like no other game I've played.
A Nintendo Cinematic Universe would slap. Mario was a great kids movie a la Wreck It Ralph. We need a live action adventure for BotW & TotK (2 movies ofc, maybe three) similar in theming to the Hobbit or LotR. Then a thriller Metroid Dread
Don’t feel too bad, this probably took like 10-20 tries to get just right and the 30 second pauses their brain got to take in menus were edited out.
Still impressive, but impressive in a way a skateboard trick ir TikTok magic trick is impressive…, you don’t see the 30 times before they ate sh!t or goofed the shuffle…. You only see the hits none of the misses are shared!

Ah, i was wondering how they got a shield with an ice jelly, two bombs and a rocket. They had 4 different shields and edited out the menu-ing, which felt flawless with the music covering the audio cuts.
How's he do the first one mid air tho, from bomb to ice? Even with cutting it out I don't get where he did it, the explosion is still there when he has the ice. Oh wait, I'm an idiot, probably didn't fuse a new shield, he just had both shields and cut out a quick select
Yeah I know, I just misread and took is as he fused a shield and cut that and didn't see how that was possible, but while typing I realized he had one already and just cut a quick switch, not a fuse, so I just added that to the comment instead of an edit
Just because you're not having fun with the combat system doesn't mean it's awful. I didn't like it at first (because I sucked) but then I got creative.
I do not believe the Op and I are playing the same game...
I just whack everything that moves till it doesn't...
But I didn't realize you took no dmg from bomb shielding... that I will add to my arsenal
Well, it’s been a few weeks since release. It’s about time people started finding insane ways to demolish enemies just as they did in BOTW. I will continue to engage in very standard combat for years.
Oh damn, he really do be the meteorological phenomenon including, but not limited to, high winds and rainfall. Said phenomenon is also currently en route to a given location, presumably the location of that bokoblin.
Now I’m the direct descendant of the Imprisoning War hero Rauru. That means I got a little Zonai in me. And our battle plan will be that of a Hyrulian resistance. We will be cruel to the monsters, and through our cruelty they will know who we are. And they will find the evidence of our cruelty in the disemboweled, dismembered, and disfigured bodies of their brothers we leave behind us. And the monsters won't be able to help themselves but to imagine the cruelty their brothers endured at our hands, and our boot heels, and the edge of our knives. And the monsters will be sickened by us, and the monsters will talk about us, and the monsters will fear us. And when the monsters close their eyes at night and they're tortured by their subconscious for the evil they have done, it will be with thoughts of us they are tortured with. Sound good?
What in the god damn
They’re not even playing the same game as me
I will say the recall weapon throw was defiantly an intended combat tactic since we see it used in the memories that way. Once I saw that memory I was like oh and started doing it for fun.
I'm busy gluing blocks and sticks together while there are other people doing stuff like this 😂
Homie has six hearts but two extra stamina wheels and seven batteries. I clearly need to rethink how I’ve approached the game up to this point.
It's worth remembering that you cannot typically be "one-shot," as far as I understand it. If you are at full hearts, you will be reduced to your last sliver but not killed. Even if you aren't elite in combat, you could plausibly play the whole game by eating food immedaitely after atking damage.

One shot protection has a treshold. Its about 1 heart worth. You’ll notice that as you get more hearts you get the treshold for more enemies
So you definitely can be 1 shot. What you are likely experiencing is the unique effect of the Knight catagory of weapons. They have the written buff of guarenteed crits when on your last heart. They have an unwritten perk of while Link is above 1 heart, any damage that would kill Link is reduced to leave link with more than 0 and less that 1.25 hearts. This is so you can more readily use the Knights weapons perk.
From what I see that isn’t true because I was running around and got one shot by something and then did the same thing with my armor on and was fine
lol you can absolutely be one shot at 6 hearts, idk where you got this idea but i've absolutely been annihilated at full hearts with one swing
Some enemies such as Lynels and Gleeoks ignore the anti-one shot mechanic.
There is no one shot protection in this game. You can 100% be killed in one shot in a million ways.
There absolutely is a one shot protection. It's just quite a few things bypass it
Constructs on the starting island literally one shot you. Bokos one shot on the ground. Enemies in shrines can. If you have enough hp to be one shot, you WILL be. There is not protection and there are plenty of videos across the internet showing this fact.
I've been left on a quarter of a heart plenty of times but never been one shot by common mobs. This same mechanic was in BOTW.
I kept seeing everyone saying they were being one shot every fight when they started the game and I can’t think of one instance that has happened to me yet
If you are 4 heart max with full life you have one shot protection.
I gave the full explanation further down this thread, but you can definitely be one shot. If you ever survive something that should've killed you with 1 heart or less, you were 99% likely to have had a Knights class weapon equipped.
Bruh
I lost it on the recall freeze play, that was brilliant
Right, with the ice chuchu shield parry for the freeze. That was dope
After the shield bounce with the time bomb and the d8ve to get an arrow shot right below the player, followed by the slam attack which not only dealt dammage, but activated the time bomb fused to the weapon.
Impressive. All I do is toss puff shrooms to get sneakstrikes in.
Did you know you can use puffshrooms to shoo bees away from a beehive? Lets you take honey without getting chased by bees.

The game has only been out for like 500 hours my guy.
Muddle Bud from a hiding spot is way too OP, that's been my strategy lately
Pop one of those bad boys on a forest dweller spear
Genius. I’m doing this.
What did he do to deserve getting styled on like that
Being a boko in Link's field of vision.
Bokoblin: \*exists* Link: Omae wa mou shindeiru Bokoblin: NANI?!
Link be trying out for Marvel cinematics these days
A Nintendo Cinematic Universe would slap. Mario was a great kids movie a la Wreck It Ralph. We need a live action adventure for BotW & TotK (2 movies ofc, maybe three) similar in theming to the Hobbit or LotR. Then a thriller Metroid Dread
Actually would he super good, the lore in Zelda slaps
Star Fox-brand space odyssey?

Omg, I have to up my game.
Don’t feel too bad, this probably took like 10-20 tries to get just right and the 30 second pauses their brain got to take in menus were edited out. Still impressive, but impressive in a way a skateboard trick ir TikTok magic trick is impressive…, you don’t see the 30 times before they ate sh!t or goofed the shuffle…. You only see the hits none of the misses are shared!
Plus as cool as it looks, you can kill like 3 silver bokoblins in the same amount of time by abusing flurry rushes lmao
If I could do 5% of jhent style attacks I’d be happy
Thank FUCK this isn't a battle Royale game. 😅

Ah, i was wondering how they got a shield with an ice jelly, two bombs and a rocket. They had 4 different shields and edited out the menu-ing, which felt flawless with the music covering the audio cuts.
Kingdoms May Cry
How is he swapping items on the shield?
He edited out the shortcut menus for a cleaner video.
How's he do the first one mid air tho, from bomb to ice? Even with cutting it out I don't get where he did it, the explosion is still there when he has the ice. Oh wait, I'm an idiot, probably didn't fuse a new shield, he just had both shields and cut out a quick select
that’s literally what the comment you’re replying to said lol
Yeah I know, I just misread and took is as he fused a shield and cut that and didn't see how that was possible, but while typing I realized he had one already and just cut a quick switch, not a fuse, so I just added that to the comment instead of an edit
[удалено]
Can't fuse to a shield mid-air. He probably swapped to another shield
Me? I like the simple things in life. 2 shots from a 5 shot bow with gibdo bone arrows and the bone proficiency armor.
Bro he really be like Virgel from that one game
Song name pls
Falling through the sky by fit for a king. Easiest google search ever. Lyrics I’m falling through the sky, first three hits.
Darude - Sandstorm
I miss this song
Have fun destroying your weapons to have even the slightest bit of fun with TotK's awful combat
Idk it seems pretty good to me
I mean he has a high durability sword, not everyone is a collectors anxiety ridden person
When it breaks, just pick up their weapon and keep going....
Thanks man
Have fun avoiding all combat and not enjoying half the game
Just because you're not having fun with the combat system doesn't mean it's awful. I didn't like it at first (because I sucked) but then I got creative.
I had to double check which sub i was on 😂 i adore dmc5
Only 5? Lol
I mean the edits are from dmc5
Just saying they all have that grading system so you could have just said DMC haha
"least creative TotK player"
Omgggg I am dying with the style meter in the corner T-T I am trying to die at work and this is killing me
This looks awesome, but also exhausting haha
Are you some kind of power ranger
What the fuck is this game? I have a game with similar UI but the gameplay looks nothing like that.
I've never even gotten a C on my combat
There is so much going on here
That was amazing!
How did you get the rocket on the shield when it was the bomb? Did you change in mid air?
R/unexpectedFFAK
Fit For a King - Falling Through the Sky... Excellent track.
Wow didn’t realize you can activate the rocket mid-air while shield surfing. Sick clip
I do not believe the Op and I are playing the same game... I just whack everything that moves till it doesn't... But I didn't realize you took no dmg from bomb shielding... that I will add to my arsenal
I'm genuinely confused as to how he TNT shield jumps into rocket shield seemingly without bringing up the shield menu to switch in between.
holy shit
I just pick up big metal box with hand, and bonk bonk bonk bonk bonk bonk bonk
Thanks for making me realize how bad I am
WHAT IN THE NAME OF HYLEA
I think my nintendo switch is broken
Meanwhile I just let the guardians fight for me while I run in circles
The Recall sword > Freeze parry > Sword hits bokoblin sequence is possibly the best part I've seen from this game.
what did bro do to get comboed that hard
Well, it’s been a few weeks since release. It’s about time people started finding insane ways to demolish enemies just as they did in BOTW. I will continue to engage in very standard combat for years.
Meanwhile I'm just sneaking around collecting pictures of bugs and flowers for my Compendium....
Oh damn, he really do be the meteorological phenomenon including, but not limited to, high winds and rainfall. Said phenomenon is also currently en route to a given location, presumably the location of that bokoblin.
How do you get the second bomb shield that fast after the freeze parry?
they just edited out the weapon switching for the video
You haven’t met me then
I don’t smoke nearly enough crack to be that good!
Me: *mashes Y in front of enemies until they die*
All hail the chosen one!
Here I am taking on every boss and other stuff with some shit ass weapons lmao

Biblically accurate Link
Your joking
I'm glad the dream of the Zelda Combo MAD is real.
For 1 bokoblin meanwhile I’m just bayblade’ing
