    My biggest problem with the new sage abilities is the having to interact with them, specially with the more combat-focused ones like sidon's and riju's. It's very cumbersome to go out of your way in the middle of a battle to activate them, so you just don't and it feels like a waste, more so since the BotW ones where so easy to use

      Honestly, this could be easily fixed: Riju should activate her ability (or maybe have a popup with hitting "A", similar to Tulin's ability when in the air) whenever you aim your bow. Seriously. Why do I have to interact with her? During part of her quest, that's more or less how she functions (actually, she's just using the ability on cooldown there)... And that was SO cool. Then, after completing her quest... Using her ability is just cumbersome. It's REALLY cool. But very cumbersome to use.
      Same with Sidon. I'll admit, haven't gotten him yet. But... Honestly, his protection ability should just happen on cooldown. It's protection, and you'd pretty much always want that to happen on cooldown. Why do you have to interact with him?

  • @thealeks1
    @thealeks1 Před rokem +887

      @@earllsh7030 fair on the clunky part, one hundred percent agree there. The ability though could use some more utility to me specifically, since the damage and defense parts of it are good but not necessarily the best. For instance, a swim speed buff, or (if they really wanted to be cool about it) a small tidal wave that when used propels link forward (but on the ground and in water, instead of how tulin is for the air). I’m thinking like how when you use a heavy weapon with Sidons ability, but more adjusted to what I was saying.
      Obviously we’ll more than likely never get it, but it’s just a cool thought to speculate on. Although dlc with new abilities or updates/additions to the ones we have would be sick

    In defense of getting Riju early, she allowed me to explore the depths very early in pitch-black conditions without glow items because her electric field highlights all objects in the radius and the field moves as you move. She has saved me from cliffs and helped me measure if I could make a climb on my available stamina. That utility goes away as you unlock the depths, unlike other sages that have a more obvious and long-term utility in addition to offense.

    Something I have seen no one realize or mention about Riju's sage ability is its no combat utility in areas of little or no visibility. If you interact with her and activate her ability, the electricity field will spread out highlighting the surrounding geography almost like some sort of sonar/radar. It can be helpful in the Depths if you have no other option. Also, very useful for going to thunderhead isles early without clearing prerequisite quests to clear the sky.

    I found one situational use for riju's ability. One time I was exploring an area of the depths I had not lit up yet and I didn't have that many brightbloom seeds on me. So, what I did was I queued up riju's ability without ever actually activating it. The glowing range indicator acted like radar and I was able to navigate pretty well. I absolutely would not recommend it as an alternative to brightbloom or light roots, and it doesn't add that much utility to riju's ability, but it can help in a pinch.

    Riju's ability can also break rocks and start fires.

    I picked Tulin first, then Yunobo, then Sidon and Riju as well on my playthrough
    Tulin was great for traversal pretty nice first pick if you like to explore first, the only problem is the cooldown when you're reaching a certain area you thought you could reach it but the abilty is still on cd and when you failed to reach it that's where it's activated, i thought the sage's will would fix that, it does not.
    Yunobo was also pretty useful especially since i like to farm ores in caves and i keep lacking hammer type weapons at the beginning, also a free cannon whenever you're in a vehicle is just neat
    Sidon was my least favorite ability because when the time i have him enemies are already stronger so i recommended to be the first pick to use for the beginners, the water shield is nice but since i really know how to use my shield i just never use it much
    Riju was pretty good it's a great substitute for Yunobo whenever you're breaking boulders, her lightning good for infiltrating enemy base camps pretty decent aoe damage as well

    @BuzzSX Před rokem +15

    Off topic, the game needs a way to toggle materials on/off from the pause menu, so they do not show up in the game materials menu(d-pad up). The sort by most used option is less than fantastic. i.e. So you don’t have to scroll past dozens of materials to drop a piece of wood, fuse a desired arrow or drop a desired horn to fuse. Any material toggled off could be dropped via pause menu in the old fashioned manner. Best quality of life function I can think of. I hope this idea is out there already and maybe catches traction for a possible patch in the future.

    • @randomcatname7792

      They just need favorites menu. Just have it like the auto build menu and your all good. Even with just 8 items it would be 4 elemental, Brightbloom, 2 utility fuses, and Keese eyes. Of course more slots would be amazing but just having any type of "make my own list" would fix half that menu.

    In regards to the spoiler section…
    Mineru isn’t restricted to zonai technology, you can fuse anything that you could target with fusion to her. This means that you can attach extra linel parts to boost damage if you feel like it. Even without anything fused she’s still pretty useful, since her bare hands are able to break ore deposits and her height is enough to wade through rivers, lava, and bottomless bogs.
    Also, I could be wrong but I don’t think Austin mentioned that whatever gets fused will have durability even if it didn’t before so the cannon he attached will break eventually or that you can fuse something over an already filled slot to replace it early.

    I feel like a lot of the Sages are just downgrades from the Champions.
    The Champions' blessings were quick, simple and practical. Quick ressurection from Mipha, better defence with Daruk, amazing traversal with Revali, and almighty AoE power with Urbosa.
    Tulin is good. While I think going vertical is more practical than horizontal, His actual fighting is good and his ability is still useful.
    Yunobo looks like he should be able to plow through the entirety of large rocks and groups of enemies, but it's moreso that he's a glorified bomb with larger range. Cool, but basically just a bomb.
    Riju looks like she could have some use but the range sounds pretty stupid. It's about LONG RANGED WEAPONS yet you have to shoot at a point specifically inside the small barrier to have it work.
    Sidon sucks. It's Daruk's Protection but worse, you lose it instantly when trying to fight with it, and it doesn't even have any weight to the water slash. It's just the water attack from Ghostwire: Tokyo but kinda worse (is that reference too obscure? Trust me, the two look and act super simularly). I don't wanna slander fish man, but his power just sucks.
    Finally, [REDACTED]. [REDACTED] looks like they could be cool to use, but much less practical or useful than I actually thought. Have to redact their name since Austin asked to keep everything spoiler-free for people who didn't want to see [REDACTED].
    There's also the fact that you have to manually walk up to them and interact with them to use them. TL;DR Champions were just more useful.
