Hyrule Warriors

HWL is rated about the same as the HW.
No need to pay 40 bucks. There's plenty of people on the internet giving out the codes that came with their games, so you could search for one that hasn't been used yet. Aside from that, the Legends Character Pack will most definitely release as a standalone later on.

part of me keeps telling me that these characters will be sold alone on wii u eshop...

you're just taunting me because you were right about the codes, ugh! :'(

I was actually really planning on buying the game for the codes but now guess ninty won't take my money this time..
 
So I finally got my Hyrule Warriors Legends game today and played around for a bit.
I've gotten up to the point where I unlocked Linkle and Lana. I'm still trying to figure out everyone but I would like to some tips on what to do.

I can do most missions, but I seem to be having a hard time finding that tarantula-looking thing and controlling the map where there many missions going on at once.

Also, any tips on whatever else, like weapon enhancing or fusing. Basically Tips on ANYTHING would greatly help!
 
I'm assuming you mean the Skulltulas?

You can listen for them. They're relatively loud compared to the rest of the audio, if you're in the right area when the web shows up. If it's really loud and you don't see it, it may be on the other side of a wall, or under a rock that you need to bomb before you attack it.

To control the map, you can switch between characters (when the mission allows it), as well as use the Start menu to command characters to stay in certain places, go after certain enemies, stay with a certain other character, etc. You can tap their face, tap a place on the map, and if there are mobs/objectives there, you can select one from the list and the character will focus on that.

For solo maps, I tend to slowly take over these, unless there's a very urgent objective to take care of. The most pressing ones tend to be going after stronger monsters that can go after and mess up your keeps. Take over as much as you can while activating the Owl statues whenever you can. If you feel like getting the hidden chests, the Skulltula, and the objectives all at once are a bit much, focus on the main mission first, and familiarize yourself with both the map and the objective, then go back to find everything you need that you didn't find on the first run.

If you're having trouble because you need a certain character to find a certain chest or do a certain mission, you can give up Rupees to level characters up, with the level limit being whoever is currently your highest character.

I also recommend checking the Badges for each character often, since you unlock new combos that way, and stuff that makes it easier to clear objectives, such as depleting the weakness gauge faster, taking over a keep more quickly, getting better potions, etc.

Idk if this is on the 3DS game as well but on the Wii U game there is a skulltula that you can only get with the hookshot but you need to replay the level later on to get it since you do not have to hookshot at that point of the game yet :(

Took me ages to figure out lmao

You only can't access it if you play the story in a certain order. The Skulltula you mention is in the OOT line of the story, so it's impossible to get if you play that first. Play both TP stages first, then OOT, and there's no reason to replay later.

I assume that some new Skulltulas are locked behind what you use the new Hammer sub-weapon on, at least on the Great Sea map.

Oh oops... :p Didn't think about that
 
Oh, the Wii U graphics are amazing..


Well yes, the Skulltulas, I completely forgot what they were called :p
I guess I had a hard time playing them because I didn't have my sound on and I didn't realize you could command them to do missions and stuff. I always saw the list, but just assumed it was like "Go here because missions here" not to actually have them fight while on another character.


And lastly, what's TP and OOT?
Sigh, I'm such a newbie to this Zelda World :p

Twilight Princess and Ocarina of Time. IIRC the TP line (one with Lana) is on the top and OOT (one with Sheik and Impa) is the one in the middle

Other way around but yeah, there you go. Hope that wasn't a spoiler though.

As for commanding characters, it weirded me out at first as well, but once I got to the first time it made me team up against a giant boss (Manhandla), it clicked. It's a really awesome feature.
 
It's sad I made it all the way through Hyrule Warriors U without ever knowing you could control what the others do or even that you could switch. Legends taught me that and it made me feel dumb.

What... YOU CAN DO THAT?!!!

Oml that would have made the death mountain mission much more bearable whoa...
My whole life is a lie
 
I've been replying the first few maps and I have been getting better at it with the commanding and everything. All the tips have helped! Now I have like 50,000 rupees and a lot of weapons that I found that I don't know what to do with :/

Any tips of fusion or stuff?
 
At first I like to have Element+, or a booster for the combo I prefer on the character. For example, with Midna it would be C3, or YYX (using Warriors controls), so I'd put Strong Attack III+ on it.

Later on, you can start toying with different skills. I haven't gotten to the point of reaching max level, so I'd often have stuff like EXP+, combo and element boosters, as well as skills like Slots+/Stars+ for better weapon drops, and Materials+ for item drops from enemies to upgrade characters.

Never really looked up a weapon building guide or anything, I just went with what I preferred, so my advice might be a bit shoddy. Perhaps one of the more eager players in this thread has better advice to give.
