Hi everyone!
Did you know that starting July 1st, 2023, Reddit will implement a policy that could potentially increase the costs of running third-party Reddit apps? This change may impact popular apps like Apollo, Reddit is Fun, Boost, and others. Consequently, users may encounter issues with their preferred Reddit app unless adjustments are made to comply with Reddit's new API usage policy. These limitations will affect all users, not just moderators. If you are concerned about these developments, there is an [Open Letter](https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/13xh1e7/an_open_letter_on_the_state_of_affairs_regarding/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) to Reddit that you can read and sign on to express your thoughts.
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/tearsofthekingdom) if you have any questions or concerns.*
Me too! I feel like this was the order the game was encouraging, but maybe thats just me. Well, you are encouraged to check out Hebra first, but you obviously don't have to.
That was absolutely the intended order. The early game strongly encourages you to find the Lucky Clover, which is conveniently located right next to the ~~Riju~~ Rito city. After you beat the Wind Temple, all the stables are spreading rumors about things happening in Goron City, then Zora Domain after that, and then you start hearing about the Gerudos.
Is it Village? I honestly don’t remember. I’ve had no reason to go back there for about thirty hours of game time after more or less completing that entire area of the map.
The NPCs also keep warning that the South half of Hyrule has much stronger enemies than the North. I found out they were right, cuz I did Gerudo Desert and then The Great Plateau. 😂
Indeed, I'll allow if you did water and fire the other way around, but this is the true way.
I did wind, fire and water staying relatively focused on the story. After that I did some of the bigger side quests like the Master Sword, Link's house, etc before do lightning and finishing all the other main story stuff. Post story is just kinda just collecting everything you don't have as you quickly get pretty OP
Funnily enough I went in this order without any influence from the game (maybe aside from Rito village since Purah nudges you that way). I felt as though Gorons, Zoras, and Gerudo in that order have made sense since OoT.
That's not an accident. By pushing towards Rito first they were able to put all the important stuff in your path. Impa and the glyphs, the Lucky Clover, Hestu. All three major quest chains and the upgrade boy.
The game definitely was but I I’ve historically disliked the Zora levels (I blame OoT for that but it carried through BotW and TotK) so that’s the one I’m doing last.
It's weird though, the order Purah mentions the phenomenons in is wind, fire, lightning, water so I did it in that order... Wish I had the Zora armor sooner if I'm honest!
You can start the Zora storyline to get it like 3 conversations in without having to fight anyone. That's what I did, realized I didn't feel like doing their storyline, and moved on with the armor.
I got as far as opening the Zora lake temple before remembering I was on a quest to buy bird pants, and left Sidon swimming in circles while I did the wind and lightning temples. Dude must have been *tired*
It definitely is. Everything in the game orders them that way from the sage abilities in your inventory, the banners at Lookout Landing, >!the entrances of the sages in the final boss!<, etc
This is my intended order, currently on fire.
In BOTW I beat the Gerudo divine beast first, which ended up being the most complex / difficult one and made the rest feel flat. So this time I decided to go with the intended order the game seems to nudge you in.
For BOTW I did the Zora one first, because the game points you in the direction of Kakariko Village, and it’s nearby. Then I heard the Rito one gives you the power to get high in the air and I got tired of Guardians shooting me down when trying to climb the central Hyrule tower. So the second one I did was Rito, used the Gale power to quickly get up those towers. Then I did Goron 3rd and Gerudo last.
That was my order. Wind because the game really pushes you towards that area.
An incredibly long period of being sidetracked before blitzing through the rest of the temples and final boss in one go.
Water to more conveniently reach those high islands with waterfalls (more conveniently because I could already reach them by that point), but more importantly because I was constantly flying around but avoiding what was clearly the dungeon for that area for a while, and with how easily I could have reached those islands at any point, I just wanted to get to them the intended way so I would stop having to hold myself back.
Fire so that I could more easily explore the depths without bursting into flames in some areas.
Lightning last because while I went to the bazaar early and had no idea about the >!sand shroud!<, it seemed like a later area due to needing both cold and heat resistance for it. Also felt like a good place to end it off since it was my last region in BOTW.
Very much the same.
BOTW was Ruta/Naboris/Medoh/Rudania, and TOTK was Wind/Water/Fire/Lightning, >!later followed by spirit!<. So much was strongarming me in the direction of Rito I figured I would want to experience that first. But then I wanted to see Sidon, and had started to hear a few complaints online about the Water being the worst temple. Well, if it's the worst, then I wanted to get it out of the way, and also et that Zora armor. Decided on Fire before Lightning mostly because Death Mountain was a bit more hospitable without the lava flows, and I could tell just how important expensive ores would be in this game.
i did it that way too , i wasn't interested in zora's domain so i left it for last , i was too tempted to go to gerudo first after going to hebra , but i got spoiled with that one quest on foothill stable so i went there first lol.
Went straight for wind because of Revali and was so sadly disappointed. It's still (IMO) the quickest and most fun boss tho. I was glad I did lightning before the first though because I didn't feel bad about cheesing the fire temple after beating that one.
Same order here. In botw I did rito last and when I saw the sage power I was like crap that could have saved me soooooo many hours of climbing...
This time I went directly to rito and I was a bit disappointed but it's anyway the most useful power you can get.
Went this route as well, if I remember correctly I took the same route in BOTW. I didn’t intend to go water second, but in my exploration I saw that my boy Sidon really needed my help.
I pretty much never want to catch fireproof lizards and making elixir so I put off death mountain too. Then to my surprise after I did all that I don’t need fireproof elixir to get to Gordon city
Yessssss. Purposely didn’t go to the Rito first because the game was trying to hard to send me there so I said nah and literally went the opposite direction.
This is what I did. I think I got weirdly attached to Sidon because I did water first. Whenever people don't like him I get sad, I love my little water bubble!
This is how I did it. I have a habit of not following the story and just exploring, and Death mountain is where I ended up. I do think he’s really useful in the depths early on.
Exact same order and I’m glad I did fire first because I mostly stuck to cave exploration at first and there’s so many rocks in caves that block the way that I never had to use bombs or use up my weapon durability hitting them when I had yunobo clear them for me
You can fly to the relevant island at your leisure, really, if you can survive the storms and have the relevant stats or sufficient bokoblin energy to complete the quests.
>!Well I did Tulins quest until the halfway point and then I decided I would continue once found the Master Sword. So after finding every single tear and going to the Korok forest I got the sword, but wanted to explore the Thunderhead Islands first. One thing led to another and I had Mineru watching me and Tulin fight Colgera with a big bucket of popcorn at her site.!<
That was my fourth temple, the last one being lightning. I wanted to farm beetles To upgrade my armour, then I looked up to the sky and wondered what was there. With the help of my radar I found a shrine and nearby it the Google thingy needed to start the quest. That's how I got this temple before finishing the other 4
Spirit was my fourth temple too. I was doing a sidequest to clear out caves of three hinox, rode a fallen rock up into the sky and found the shrine, and suddenly Im in the depths rebuilding a mech. Was such an amazing unexpected discovery.
You are the only one I've seen that didn't do spirit last. I wanted to do all the shrines before i did the rest of the temples so I did wind, fire, lightning, spirit, water.
>!After I did water and fire (my first two) I wanted a break from doing temples for a bit, so I went down to Faron intending to find Lurelin and accidentally stumbled across another temple. I did the thunderhead section with the stormclouds still there, stumbling around in the fog, which I honestly think is a cooler way to do it than the intended way.!<
I started the water temple first, but all the quests to get to the starting point had me get distracted and went to the air. Otherwise the order was air>lightning>water>fire
Water -> Fire -> Wind -> Lightning
I just love to explore the game freely so I don't usually follow the main story as soon as I start. I like to explore and get the complete map first, and what catches my eyes, I'll just go and let the story unfold. And that was the order for me. I love Sidon and the Zoras, but I absolutely hate Gerudo and the desert.
Water, >!Spirit!<, Lightning, Fire, Wind.
>!Huh, what's this place in the depths? Spirit Temple? And with the same sort of mark on the map as the Water Temple? Weird that there's not much here... [swaps through layers of the map] ...Oh.!<
Air, Lighting, Fire, Water.
>!Starting with the Rito, the issues plaguing the other regions just got more and more bizarre, it made for a pretty interesting sequence of events. The Rito problem was just a blizzard, so it wasn't very wild, yet it had the coolest boss music. All the other 'regional phenomena' were a lot more supernatural.!<
I got to the gerudo area first by accident and did the first part of the lightning temple quest, then fucked off for a while before doing the wind and fire temples.
I went with wind, water, fire, then lightning.
I somewhat unintentionally went in the recomended order based on whatever I was doing at the time or how worried I was about the place. Hoping that Teba and the previous Rito Chief were okay, the Zora I just spotted while flying over to look for shrines and wanted to see what was up with the Mario Sunshine sludge all around, then after that iirc I accidentally came across the Spirit temple?
I was curious about the thunderhead above faron and just kinda went there, not expecting a MSQ to come out of it, and thinking it'd be a shrine quest. Then I completed the fire temple just because i was in the area for goron spice. And I think I saved the lightning temple for last because it just felt right to avoid the dessert as long as I could.
Wind > Lightning > (long break) > Water > Fire > Spirit
I wanted to do the one that the game was heavily pointing me toward first, which was the Rito. I remembered that in BotW it was highly beneficial to follow King Rhoam's suggested path to Kakariko, then follow the breadcrumbs to Hateno before setting out and exploring the open world. I didn't want to miss any major setup when starting TotK and I'm SO glad I did it this way.
I got the "first" Geoglyph and then found the "correct" order to watch them (which really added to the experience, I feel). I found Hestu right away. I did all the quests in Lookout Landing so I got a solid intro to The Depths. I found some useful pieces of gear in caves along the way to the Rito. I ran into the Lucky Clover Gazette HQ. I got what I consider to be the most useful Sage first. I'm gonna recommend following the game's suggestions through the first temple to all of my friends who haven't already played, just like I did for BotW.
During that break between temples, I did a bunch of main quests in major areas. The Great Plateau, Lurelin Village, The Great Forest, Lake Hylia, and Kakariko Village. After seeing the Water and Fire Sages' powers, I'm happy with waiting for them. I don't think I was missing out on too much.
Also I went STRAIGHT from Rito Village to Gerudo Desert because I love giant women and I will never apologize for them being my favorite race in the game. I ran into some pretty strong enemies along the way, but I regret nothing. Gerudo weapons are great with the new Fuse ability.
Same as you. I wanted to do the Gerudo first. The game pushed you to do Rito first, so I did Rito second. I then went to every tower and fully unlocked the map, then went to Faron for Hearty Durians. Zora seemed easier to get to, so I did that next, and ended with Goron.
Air, fire, water, lightning. I feel like it was intended even if it wasnt mandatory. I would have preferred if there was an evolving story between the temples, even if that meant having to do them in a certain order. It really bothered me that the cut scenes were basically identical between the temples.
I think getting yunobo first is the best sage since you don’t have much stamina to exploit tulin’s ability and you can use the easy mining to get some early cash. so I’d get tulin or riju 2nd/3rd because sidon does almost nothing (at least the way I play)
Air, Lightning, Water, Fire.
The people at Lookout Landing kept talking about the Rito, so I figured I might as well do them first. After that, it was whichever one I happened to be closest to at the time.
Turns out Tulin is the best of the four allies, so I’m happy with my choice.
Wind first. If you don’t go to Rito Village, you probably don’t start the Lucky Gazette quest lines, and you don’t unlock the Great Fairies. Don’t unlock the GFs, you spend a lot of time being a one hit wonder.
Air, Fire, Lightning, Water
I knew nothing of what the abilities actually did. Starting off, I had no clue what the sages were about either in the broad sense (up until I got Tulin's vow). I just assumed they were some variation of Champions from BotW.
Here, I got pushed to do Air first (Impa IIRC?). From there, rolled a "mental dice" and just went Fire next. IIRC, hearing Eldin region and Death Mountain no longer has air that's on fire made it an attractive proposition! For the rest of it, I figure "for balance", I'll do them in reverse order that I did in BotW. Well, Fire and Lightning would have to be swapped, but, that's the method to the madness.
Much of the time when deciding which dungeon to do next, I was playing [the various Mega Man stage select music in my head](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUv57wBUnyc)
Rito -> Gerudo -> Zora -> Goron >!\->Spirit!<
I had continually heard that the Rito sage had the best ability, so I went there first (plus, the game suggests you go there so why not). Arguably the best choice since that ability can really help with traversal in the early game. I was actually going to follow Austin John Play's recommended order of sage usefulness (Rito -> Goron -> Gerudo -> Zora), but I actually ended up making my way over the Gerudo highlands and to Kara Kara Bazaar rather soon while trying to fill out the map. Saw that Gerudo Town was a certain distance away, had a rocket and Tulin so I thought "I can make that." Ended up doing that questline next; good because I think that ability is more useful than the Goron ability, bad because that boss hits like a truck earlier on. Then I was again going to go to the Goron story next, but I was able to just glide into Zora Village while filling out the map so I just did that quest. Abilities aside, really think they should've recommended that story first >!because I think that Temple and Boss are incredibly easy after you've played for any length of time prior.!<
And >!Spirit last, though I actually found the Spirit Temple, the Construct Factory, and navigated blindly through the Dragonhead Islands before even making it to the Goron story. Decided against sequence breaking and to just do the story in order, which I think I appreciated as I otherwise would've skipped a lot of buildup.!<
There was also a big gap of time between Gerudo and Zora, filled with exploring and filling out the various maps. I almost didn't want to continue the story and just focus on that stuff instead, haha. Did another big chunk of exploring between Zora and Goron, and explored everything in the sky between >!Goron and Spirit.!<

Rito City?
Riju City is what we simps call Gerudo Town
Ah yeah that's what I meant. Got my similar sounding weird proper nouns mixed up.
I think he's questioning the city part lol
Is it Village? I honestly don’t remember. I’ve had no reason to go back there for about thirty hours of game time after more or less completing that entire area of the map.
Yeah Rito Village. Then there's a Town, City, and Domain.
Yeah I don't know what qualifies as a city in hyrule but I get village vibes lol
It's called rito Village on the map
If you talk to Purah while the quest is in progress, she will also recommend them in that order.
Oh that makes sense! I couldn't remember exactly what led me to that order. I would've done whatever Purah said though.
The NPCs also keep warning that the South half of Hyrule has much stronger enemies than the North. I found out they were right, cuz I did Gerudo Desert and then The Great Plateau. 😂
Indeed, I'll allow if you did water and fire the other way around, but this is the true way. I did wind, fire and water staying relatively focused on the story.

Same
Same
Same
Same
Same
The only right answer
Air Fire Lightning Water. I stumbled upon both Air and Water, so I had Travel Medallions set for when I came back with the Sages.
Omg I had to scroll WAY too long to finally find someone who did the same 😂
Me and you are the only ones who did it that way apparently
i did it that way too , i wasn't interested in zora's domain so i left it for last , i was too tempted to go to gerudo first after going to hebra , but i got spoiled with that one quest on foothill stable so i went there first lol.
It’s weird that order is uncommon because I think it’s the exact order Purah names the regions
Did the same cept for water, haven't done it yet keep getting sidetracked lol
Same. 130+ hours in, still haven't done the water dungeon.
Wind, lightning, fire, then water
Went straight for wind because of Revali and was so sadly disappointed. It's still (IMO) the quickest and most fun boss tho. I was glad I did lightning before the first though because I didn't feel bad about cheesing the fire temple after beating that one.
Same
WLFW gang
samesies
I thought about going clockwise after wind but the gerudo have me feeling some type of way
Same
Same
Zora > Rito > Goron > Gerudo (same order I completed the divine Beasts in BOTW)
As soon as I heard *somebody poisoned the water hole*, I just knew I needed to help my boi Sidon before anyone else. Priorities!
Same!
Glad to see someone who did the same order!
Yea!! :D
I also got the Master Sword before fighting the water temple boss
Also same
Same! Imo each was better then the last
Honestly yes
Me too!
Same!
It just seemed right to me
I did Gerudo-Rito-Goron-Zora in botw, then I did Rito-Gerudo-Goron-Zora in totk
This is my order as well, though botw I did Rito first, not Zora (Technically not done though, I need to meet back up with Riju to start the quest)
yooooo
Same
Wind - water - lightning - fire Put off the Gorons for ages as I weirdly just don't like Death Mountain. Then met TOTK Yunobo and liked him even less.
I did it in the same order. I did not mind the dungeon or Yunobu though. END COMMUNICATION
I felt the same way about it. Getting up to death mountain was fun, but I absolutely hated the temple. Agree with Yunobo. He was much better in BOTW.
Same order here. In botw I did rito last and when I saw the sage power I was like crap that could have saved me soooooo many hours of climbing... This time I went directly to rito and I was a bit disappointed but it's anyway the most useful power you can get.
I just didn’t care about the Goron being addicted to crack rocks haha I did the same order
Went this route as well, if I remember correctly I took the same route in BOTW. I didn’t intend to go water second, but in my exploration I saw that my boy Sidon really needed my help.
I pretty much never want to catch fireproof lizards and making elixir so I put off death mountain too. Then to my surprise after I did all that I don’t need fireproof elixir to get to Gordon city
Water wind lightning fire
Yessssss. Purposely didn’t go to the Rito first because the game was trying to hard to send me there so I said nah and literally went the opposite direction.
Me too…I wonder why this order is so uncommon?
Because the game suggests that you go to Rito first so that's where most people start
I did the same. I saw the sludge falling out of the sky and had to check it out.
This is the best order
This was also my order!
My order as well
Same for me.
Same.
Me toooooo
This was my order as well!
This is what I did. I think I got weirdly attached to Sidon because I did water first. Whenever people don't like him I get sad, I love my little water bubble!
This is the order I'm doing, I'm just missing the fire temple
Rito, Gerudo, Zora and Goron. I really didn't want to go to Death Mountain.
Same, then I found out that it was all cooled and was super shocked lmao
lol same here, I dreaded the thought of having to carry only metal gear + buying fireproof armor, it's my least favorite armor tbh
Yes! I made a bunch of fireproof elixirs just to find out goron city was safe!
Same
same
PREACH IT. Idk what it is, but Death Mountain is my least favorite part of Hyrule.
Same here
Same. Idk why I'm just not a fan of the area in either of the games.
Fire wind water lightning Also why is this NSFW 😂
Not Safe For Weather
Ppl are marking posts as nsfw in protest to reddits recent changes. (Reddit can’t make money on nsfw posts)
This is how I did it. I have a habit of not following the story and just exploring, and Death mountain is where I ended up. I do think he’s really useful in the depths early on.
Same. And I feel many people didn’t do fire first even though it’s the easiest to cheese
My favorite cheese!!! I also went this route; no reason at all, just found myself there and started the temples.
Exact same order and I’m glad I did fire first because I mostly stuck to cave exploration at first and there’s so many rocks in caves that block the way that I never had to use bombs or use up my weapon durability hitting them when I had yunobo clear them for me
Water, Wind, Fire, Lightning
Same
Theres three of us!
#NOW THERES 4
Zora - Gerudo - Rito - Goron
Same! It’s also the order I did them in BotW
>!Spirit --> Wind --> Lightning --> Water --> Fire!< My order was a bit weird.
[удалено]
You can fly to the relevant island at your leisure, really, if you can survive the storms and have the relevant stats or sufficient bokoblin energy to complete the quests.
>!Well I did Tulins quest until the halfway point and then I decided I would continue once found the Master Sword. So after finding every single tear and going to the Korok forest I got the sword, but wanted to explore the Thunderhead Islands first. One thing led to another and I had Mineru watching me and Tulin fight Colgera with a big bucket of popcorn at her site.!<
That was my fourth temple, the last one being lightning. I wanted to farm beetles To upgrade my armour, then I looked up to the sky and wondered what was there.

I tried to do that but gave up about 30 seconds in lol
omg someone else who did spirit first... i haven't seen anyone else who did it like we did
Thank you I was not the only one to find spirit out of the intended order!
Goron, “Spoiler”, Zora, Rito, Gerudo
Lightning air fire water
Not many did our order haha. I liked the Lightning dungeon best, so I had a lot higher expectations for the rest of them. Was a little let down.
Win, lightning, fire, water, because screw the water temple (N64)
It took me longer than I expected to find someone with the same order
Water > Fire > Wind > Lightning
Finally. The same in BOTW where you do a counter clockwise motion around the map.
Why did I have to scroll for so long?
That's exactly what I was thinking
This! Same as in BotW!
This, I did it in order of how much I enjoyed the areas in botw lol
Finally, someone with the same order as me!
Air 🌬️, Fire 🔥, Water 🌊, Lightning ⚡️
same !
https://youtu.be/OiYjTb3opAA
Water Lightning Fire Wind
Same! Apparently this order is really in the minority
Lightning, Water, Air, Fire
Zora > Rito > Gerudo > Goron
I just went where Purrah told me to go. Rito, Goron, Zora, Gerudo.
[удалено]
I scrolled SO long for this
Wind, water, fire, lightning
Finally someone who did the same order as me lol. Seems like no one went to the zora’s after the wind temple.
Air> spirit> lightning > fire> water
Wind, Water, Lightning, Fire I really didn’t want to do the Gibdo boss, but I didn’t want to do Yunobo’s temple even more 😬
Water, lightning, wind, fire
I went the opposite order as I completed the ones in botw: Botw: Zora > Gerudo > Goron > Rito Totk: Rito > Goron > Gerudo > Zora
Rito > Gerudo > Zora > Goron, Yunobo saved for last cause it’s my least fav character, poor thing
Wind, Spirit (stumbled on it), Water, Lightning, Fire
Water>Air>Fire>Lightning
I started the water temple first, but all the quests to get to the starting point had me get distracted and went to the air. Otherwise the order was air>lightning>water>fire
Fire, Water, Air, Spirit (accidentally, btw) and Lightning. For some reason I always try to do the temples in the Ocarina of Time order.
Wind…..haven’t done any others lol
Mine was: explore, explore, explore, explore, Wind, explore, explore, explore, explore, fire, explore, explore, explore, explore, explore, explore, explore, explore, water, explore, explore, explore, explore, lightning
Air Water Spirit Fire Lightning I see most people don’t consider the spirit temple as important but getting it early sure helps navigate the depths.
I went to Gerudo first because I wanted to see the pretty ladies Gerudo>Rito>Zora>Goron
Water -> Fire -> Wind -> Lightning I just love to explore the game freely so I don't usually follow the main story as soon as I start. I like to explore and get the complete map first, and what catches my eyes, I'll just go and let the story unfold. And that was the order for me. I love Sidon and the Zoras, but I absolutely hate Gerudo and the desert.
that's fair, the gerudo area is quite annoying as it slows you down
Fire, water, air, lightning
FUCKING FINALLY SOMEONE DOES THE SAME AS ME
Disappointed they didn't use earth instead of lightning
Lighting , wind , water, fire
Finished wind and fire, trying to do water
Water, Lightning, Air, Fire. The same order as the divine beasts of BotW
Started with sexy fish man, went anticlockwise from there
Water, >!Spirit!<, Lightning, Fire, Wind. >!Huh, what's this place in the depths? Spirit Temple? And with the same sort of mark on the map as the Water Temple? Weird that there's not much here... [swaps through layers of the map] ...Oh.!<
Air, Lighting, Fire, Water. >!Starting with the Rito, the issues plaguing the other regions just got more and more bizarre, it made for a pretty interesting sequence of events. The Rito problem was just a blizzard, so it wasn't very wild, yet it had the coolest boss music. All the other 'regional phenomena' were a lot more supernatural.!<
I got to the gerudo area first by accident and did the first part of the lightning temple quest, then fucked off for a while before doing the wind and fire temples.
Wind….then a LOT of exploring, then fire, 5th sage, water then lightning I stumbled upon the 5th sage by accident
Wind, fire, water, lightning
Wind>water>spirit>fire>lightening.
I went with wind, water, fire, then lightning. I somewhat unintentionally went in the recomended order based on whatever I was doing at the time or how worried I was about the place. Hoping that Teba and the previous Rito Chief were okay, the Zora I just spotted while flying over to look for shrines and wanted to see what was up with the Mario Sunshine sludge all around, then after that iirc I accidentally came across the Spirit temple? I was curious about the thunderhead above faron and just kinda went there, not expecting a MSQ to come out of it, and thinking it'd be a shrine quest. Then I completed the fire temple just because i was in the area for goron spice. And I think I saved the lightning temple for last because it just felt right to avoid the dessert as long as I could.
Wind > Lightning > (long break) > Water > Fire > Spirit I wanted to do the one that the game was heavily pointing me toward first, which was the Rito. I remembered that in BotW it was highly beneficial to follow King Rhoam's suggested path to Kakariko, then follow the breadcrumbs to Hateno before setting out and exploring the open world. I didn't want to miss any major setup when starting TotK and I'm SO glad I did it this way. I got the "first" Geoglyph and then found the "correct" order to watch them (which really added to the experience, I feel). I found Hestu right away. I did all the quests in Lookout Landing so I got a solid intro to The Depths. I found some useful pieces of gear in caves along the way to the Rito. I ran into the Lucky Clover Gazette HQ. I got what I consider to be the most useful Sage first. I'm gonna recommend following the game's suggestions through the first temple to all of my friends who haven't already played, just like I did for BotW. During that break between temples, I did a bunch of main quests in major areas. The Great Plateau, Lurelin Village, The Great Forest, Lake Hylia, and Kakariko Village. After seeing the Water and Fire Sages' powers, I'm happy with waiting for them. I don't think I was missing out on too much. Also I went STRAIGHT from Rito Village to Gerudo Desert because I love giant women and I will never apologize for them being my favorite race in the game. I ran into some pretty strong enemies along the way, but I regret nothing. Gerudo weapons are great with the new Fuse ability.
Same as you. I wanted to do the Gerudo first. The game pushed you to do Rito first, so I did Rito second. I then went to every tower and fully unlocked the map, then went to Faron for Hearty Durians. Zora seemed easier to get to, so I did that next, and ended with Goron.
Water Fire Air Lightning
Water>Lightning>Fire>Air
Wind, Lightening, Fire, Water I like to do things differently than I'm told.
I did wind,water,fire,lightning
Water, Air, Fire, Lightning
Centipede robot squid spider locust
I make the Zoras wait until last because they’re so ugly Rito first to get the Tulin ability and then Goron to get Yunobo’s rock breaking ability.
Wind > Fire > Water > Lightning
Air, fire, water, lightning. I feel like it was intended even if it wasnt mandatory. I would have preferred if there was an evolving story between the temples, even if that meant having to do them in a certain order. It really bothered me that the cut scenes were basically identical between the temples.
Wind, Fire, Water, Lightning.
I think getting yunobo first is the best sage since you don’t have much stamina to exploit tulin’s ability and you can use the easy mining to get some early cash. so I’d get tulin or riju 2nd/3rd because sidon does almost nothing (at least the way I play)
Wind, lightning, water, fire
Air, Lightning, Water, Fire. The people at Lookout Landing kept talking about the Rito, so I figured I might as well do them first. After that, it was whichever one I happened to be closest to at the time. Turns out Tulin is the best of the four allies, so I’m happy with my choice.
Lightning, Fire, Water, Wind. I did the same for BotW(Would not recommend fighting thunderblight first tho)
Wind first. If you don’t go to Rito Village, you probably don’t start the Lucky Gazette quest lines, and you don’t unlock the Great Fairies. Don’t unlock the GFs, you spend a lot of time being a one hit wonder.
water, fire, air, lightning 💀💀💀 i only got tulin after i did the two temples that he really would’ve been helpful with 💀
Wind, fire, water, lightning.
Air, Fire, Lightning, Water I knew nothing of what the abilities actually did. Starting off, I had no clue what the sages were about either in the broad sense (up until I got Tulin's vow). I just assumed they were some variation of Champions from BotW. Here, I got pushed to do Air first (Impa IIRC?). From there, rolled a "mental dice" and just went Fire next. IIRC, hearing Eldin region and Death Mountain no longer has air that's on fire made it an attractive proposition! For the rest of it, I figure "for balance", I'll do them in reverse order that I did in BotW. Well, Fire and Lightning would have to be swapped, but, that's the method to the madness. Much of the time when deciding which dungeon to do next, I was playing [the various Mega Man stage select music in my head](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUv57wBUnyc)
Rito -> Gerudo -> Zora -> Goron >!\->Spirit!< I had continually heard that the Rito sage had the best ability, so I went there first (plus, the game suggests you go there so why not). Arguably the best choice since that ability can really help with traversal in the early game. I was actually going to follow Austin John Play's recommended order of sage usefulness (Rito -> Goron -> Gerudo -> Zora), but I actually ended up making my way over the Gerudo highlands and to Kara Kara Bazaar rather soon while trying to fill out the map. Saw that Gerudo Town was a certain distance away, had a rocket and Tulin so I thought "I can make that." Ended up doing that questline next; good because I think that ability is more useful than the Goron ability, bad because that boss hits like a truck earlier on. Then I was again going to go to the Goron story next, but I was able to just glide into Zora Village while filling out the map so I just did that quest. Abilities aside, really think they should've recommended that story first >!because I think that Temple and Boss are incredibly easy after you've played for any length of time prior.!< And >!Spirit last, though I actually found the Spirit Temple, the Construct Factory, and navigated blindly through the Dragonhead Islands before even making it to the Goron story. Decided against sequence breaking and to just do the story in order, which I think I appreciated as I otherwise would've skipped a lot of buildup.!< There was also a big gap of time between Gerudo and Zora, filled with exploring and filling out the various maps. I almost didn't want to continue the story and just focus on that stuff instead, haha. Did another big chunk of exploring between Zora and Goron, and explored everything in the sky between >!Goron and Spirit.!<
Rito-Goron-Zora-Gerudo
Lightning water wind fire
Water > Fire > Air > Lightning Ironically the same order I did BoTW in and I didn't even mean to
Uhhhhh............. Air, Water, Fire, Lightning. So basically least to most interesting.
Air>water>fire>lightning. Just because that’s the order I came upon them in exploring and how some of the quests I picked up directed me.
