I’m jealous because this would take me weeks and maybe months to do💀
You didn't make a Goron run in botw
Yooooooooo
@@user-sn8dk3ng6z
That’s because he doesn’t like not being able to use bows and shields.
If you want to see a BotW Goron run, Cush did one.
First TOTK challenge run I've seen that didn't immediately just dupe every resource. Fantastic job.
Wait, people do this in challenge runs? 🫣 (I don't like item duping lol)
@@Croton Oh yeah. There's a surprising amount I've seen that go "Can I beat TOTK with only {blank}" then dupe 900 bombs, diamonds, lynel horns, etc. Like yeah, pretty sure if I turned on cheat engine even I could do a no damage run first try, but that kind of misses the point a bit.
So definitely stoked to see you back at it!
@@JAK_AutomationCroton is the ones that use actual knowledge to challenge runs
Ya he likes the challenge + he don’t like duping glitches lol
So true tho
Two extra objectives you should probably add for future themed runs that use the Sages - firstly, upgrading the Vow of the respective Sage to a Solem Vow, and secondly obtaining the region's Divine Beast helm from its surface chest - wearing it causes the avatar of the repective sage to wear the helm of their ancestor, and presumably makes them stronger as well.
The divine beast helms do the same thing a sage's will does, as long as you're wearing it
@@MoneyRabbitGooberMan does it stack? I assume it doesnt like how bonusses do nit stack past lvl 3
@theknight1573 not sure but I think it might
@@theknight1573 Just watched a writeup video, they do stack (level 1 as base, level 2 as Solemn Vow OR Helm, level 3 for both)
@@furiouscorgi6614 awesome, thanks for letting me know!
Link just lying on his back after getting killed by the molduga made me wheeze. Whoever created the ragdoll physics for this game is a great person
The moder is a genius 😂
He was done with it and wanted to lie down.
@@Flane713budum TSS
Link thought it was the shrine of resurrection.
when he said the sand was on his side, i immediately thought "you merely adopted the sand, the molduga was born in it, molded by it, it didn't see grass till it was already a man"
Honestly, considering the plotwist reveal at the end of the Eight Heroine sidequest, the narrative context for this run is actually a lot more appropriate than you probably expected at first.
Also, probably not gonna be able to watch the full thing in one sitting, but I still just wanna say how I think it's incredible that you're willing to edit down probably multiple long streams into a movie-length's worth of a video. I'm not an editor myself, but I know it has to be a ton of work, and as someone who unfortunately lacks the attention-span to watch full-stream VODs, I truly appreciate it.
After seeing all the cool gerudo stuff in my first playthrough, it was a no brainer to make this my first TotK challenge run 😅 the heroine stuff fit just perfect too!
Happy you're enjoying the video, it took a long time to edit but worth it for how fun of a challenge this was!!
I’m to lazy to read all of this
@@RyanDawson-qr6uf Thank you for looking stupid by giving such a pointless reply, then, I guess? Ran out of ADHD meds too, by any chance?
@@RyanDawson-qr6ufyou should read the fnaf lore💀
@@TADCJax1202 Ugg I know game theory’s videos are entertaining about it tho
Rock mining boutta be the new meta
Fr 🔥🔥🔥
Nah Mineru mining is way better if you've gotten her, she 1 hits the ores
🔥
@@erectile_dysfunction_gamingthough that would mean you have to have one if its arms unweaponized or else that weapon would break from mining, right?
@@solidzack yeah that's true
Man, this guy is definitely more dexterous than I am in Tears of the Kingdom! His skill, knowledge, and general ambition surpass mine, especially in these kinds of challenges!
And his challenges are really fun and original 😄
@@IdentifiantE.Sno, beating game using only one gear type is really boring lol
@@Ben-zg8xk then why the heck are you here!?
Watching you fail that one race for hours made me giggle so much easily best part of the run lol, first challenge run of many out!
I regret not taking physics in HS, making working contraptions in this game is tough 😂
@@Crotonwell then, I'll be glad to help you out!
I literally used a hover bike when I saw there were no rules against using zonai devices 😂
@@CrotonI just got off of my sand seal climbed up got it and came back to the seal and just went around the rock and it was much easier than what you did but you do win in coolness
After you saved gerudo town, it just became “drinking game, every time link takes damage you down a noble pursuit”
Neat fact: If you rematch Queen Gibdo in the depth she drops a Queen Gibdo wing which adds +40 damage to your weapon (+80 on gerudo weapons) and also adds the wind blow effect to your weapon as well, easily making it the strongest fan weapon option in the game (followed by the Hudson cutout hilariously).
hudson cutout funnee
Forever our president
I think a “Can you beat Tears of the Kingdom with only Traveler’s gear” would be a cool challenge, the weapons can only be traveler’s weapons, shields can be like those round wooden ones, and the armor can be the Hylian set
I agree.
YES I AGREE!
*Puts lynel sabre horn on traveler's sword*
Ok I just want to praise the editor who added the music; everything was perfectly timed and it added so much atmosphere to the gameplay.
I'm so happy my tip for him charge attacking during seized construct made it into the video!
Also that Yiga Symbol at the end seems to hint the next one might be a Yiga challenge and that's exciting
I hope that's the case....
Glory to Master Kohga!
I did yiga only. Was heck of a challenge with my rules.
I have such major props for you with the Queen Gibdo fight. I ended up getting a bunch of magic weapons and rubies to spam her down with that. She and the Water Temple boss were so annoying/hard for me.
It's nice how they promote using different strategies in the fights at least!! Queen Gibdo and mucktorok especially are fun with zonai building
@@Croton oh yeah! I ended up locking Muckrock in a cage for lack of a better term so he would stop dodging.
The Gerudo run was my favorite one of your videos back in botw. I’m excited to see how the new abilities have changed the run.
same, i really wanna see how the story affects this, as its not the same blights everytime
I've always loved desert themes in Zelda games, which is why I had such a blast doing both of these!! 😄 thank you!
I'm glad this run was my first time experiencing TotK's finale pre-main story, it was a worthy challenge
This is my last few days of my summer holidays and you made my last few days so much better. Thx Croton I love your Zelda challenge runs and your the best!!! 😊
I'm happy you enjoy these!! Thank you lots 😄
Wow really ur lucky I've been back for a week now
I am confident that if Croton would have simply stayed at full health, 85% of those deaths wouldn’t have happened.
The good thing about Gerudo Weapons is that they have great damage. But will they hold for all of it? Anyways, this will be an awesome watch! I am excited for future TOTK only X Gear runs!
Can't wait to put ganondorf through the same torture we put calamity ganon through in BotW 😎
I'm excited to do more, thank you!
I feel like there are so many toxic streamers now so watching something like this with such a chill guy like him is a nice refreshing change of pace!
I'm so excited for your TotK challenge runs! Loved watching your first playthrough, and now it's time for the real deal!
To think this is only playthrough #2 of TotK -- here's to many more!!
Thank you :)
I feel like a zonai only run would be great and definitely on theme with totk
Yeah, and I think using the old zonai tunic would be fine until upgrading to full zonai set. But that might just be me lol
Completing every shrine for the ancient hero thing:
Dang! That was exciting! Looking forward to that Yiga run (yes I caught that), though it won't be the first I've seen. Should be awesome!
He always has a smile when making these videos, you can hear him chuckle a lot too, you know he is having fun making these videos
You should consider adding the Divine Beast helmets to the list for your non-Hylian runs since you can get them through quests now and dont need Amiibo
Pls do a satori themed run next where you get all the bubbulfrogs and can only use magic rods!
And the Magic Pyjamas?
Best series of CZcams returning and I’m here a minute after it releases? My luck is insane
😄😄 I hope you enjoy!!
I reckon you should try a yiga only run (including vehicles) I did and it was... Interesting
There's something at the end that suggests the next one might be a Yiga Run!
@@e-pointer2262 I noticed that, I saw the eye of the Yiga symbol at the end
I am so happy the first totk challeng run is out!
I love Gerudo stuff. By fusing a Gibdo Bone to a Gerudo Claymore, you can one-hit basically anything with a sneak strike!
I would use eightfold blades and puffshrooms since it can give you 16x damage when using sneak strike
@@godzilaa4 With the Gerudo Claymore, Gibdo Bone, a +10 weapon modifier, and level 3 attack bonus, the sneakstrike does 1,344 damage. With the eightfold blade with all the above things, it does 1,560, so you’re right but it’s very close- though I’d still go for eightfold blade since it’ll have more durability long run than the claymore.
hey! you're my favorite zelda creator right now. I love that your challenge runs focus on having fun more than accomplishing things as fast as possible. It's really refreshing and shakes up the formula I think. Keep it up! :)
Thank you!! I like doing themed runs because they add a lot of replay value to the game, plus all the different armor/weapon aesthetics are fun to highlight!! Glad you enjoy too 😄
4:32 btw you can examine the crystal to get the laser beam as well, it just means you cannot activate the warp point until you get the crystal there
I love everything about your videos! The music is always a bop, love the jokes, precision, knowledge- and it makes me wanna play!!
I'm happy you enjoy the runs!! I always love having another reason to pick this game up too 😄
Gotta say, the Gerudo mission was my fav. The temple was amazing, rijus power is pretty good, all things considered, and the Gibdos re-appearance made me smile when I saw they looked like Re-deads
The boss socks though. I actually just really hate the queen gibdo with a burning passion.
@@1th_to_comment. very true
So glad these awesome runs are back!!
For a new run, you should totally do zonai only!!! I alredy have a savefile where I have done it, 34 hours of playtime. You have access to 5 sets of armor (zonite, gliding and the 3 elemental sets) and some pretty cool weapons! This comment is a little late for a response, but in case you do see it, I think this is a pretty cool idea!
I love how the challenge runs are back in totk. keep up the good work man
Thank you!! 😄
Very excited for the challenge runs to start.
I always love this kind of video! Glad to see the challenges continuing in totk
wow well done Croton!! that was hilarious and so fun to watch. you're so good at this game!
Man, I was feeling down today. I feel better now that I have something interesting to watch from a content creator that I like. Thanks Croton.
I would have rather fought Sooga than Kohga. You make Exellent content.
My favorite thing I learned in this video is the unique lines the sages have during the final part of the game depending on which dungeons you have already beaten
Love the cosmo canyon (?) music in one of the segments. Final Fantasy VII was and still kinda is a bonding experience for me and my dad like three years ago (he played it in college) and that game was pretty good
Hes back again with another banger zelda challenge run!
I love these challenges so much!
I love these challenge runs. Please make more!
5:36 its insane that when he says "its not a lot, but" i *immediately* think of that one scene with Dr Doofenshirtz. it's gotten outta hand how popular that line is.
I'm so happy u have started posting totk challenge runs
Thanks so much for putting all the streams together into a video. Unfortunately, I can almost never make it to the livestreams due to work, so it’s great that I still get to see it!
Glad to make it available in this way then!! 😄
Finally! My main man's back with the simplest and yet coolest challenge! Good on you bud!
One of the funnest challenge runs I’ve seen! 😂🎉
I’m glad to see this series return
Fun fact about that race it can be completed easily with a hoverbike but I do think its more interesting with the seal.
True!! I only use hoverbike for the depths or dragon hunting though, it would be too cheesy otherwise
This is just an idea but Cronton you should have added a rule where you have to defeat master Kohga and the yiga because of the wars between yiga and gerudo. I know it would make the challenge a little longer but it was just an idea.
Yay we’re starting these! Love ya content
Outstanding work from the best Zelda player on YT!
It seemed quite fitting to use the Theme of Sand Ruins, especially during the Gibdo fight at Kara Kara! Cool run as well 🙂
Been waiting for you to play through totk doing these challenges
THE OG CROTON CONTENT IS BAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!!!
Croton: *gets bonked by korok
Also Croton: "MAKAR!"
26:43 I like your taste in Gerudo Valley covers *:D*
For those who want to listen to it on its own, the artist is named Mesmonium. You're welcome! *;)*
I spent a whole day listening to desert music and that's how I came across this one - probably my new favorite cover of gerudo valley!! 🎶
@@Croton There's quite a few other good ones out there. If you haven't already listened to them, I also recommend the ones by Retro Remix Revue, Epic Game Music, Zelda Reorchestrated, The Red Wings, Sammolo, Mateyadrums, and the one hosted by Magillanica Lou Mayvin aka Deltasniper360.
This is really really nice. You're a very friendly looking person. You deserve your subscribers. Kudos on the hard work.
Sorry if this is a duplicate as I have to login my phone to comment. As I tried to post, I’m 62, playing Zelda a longgg time and enjoyed all your blind play throughs. Really helped as I’m a passive player and just beat Ganondorf last night.
I appreciate your hard work editing this and look forward to more! Your positivity is appreciated and passion for the game shows. Thanks.
Congrats on beating the game! Zelda games are always fantastic
I'm happy you enjoy the adventures here, it's always been a blast playing through them 😄 thank you!
guacamelee was literally the first videogame i ever played at like 5 yrs old, so the some of the music in this video was crazy
Just got off work and go on CZcams to a new challenge run from my all Time favourite Zelda channel 🔥🔥
I’m doing this run personally atm and after watching the video it’s cool to see how we tackled the same challenges differently
You know i do like how the different people use the surrounding monsters for improve their weapons like lizal parts for zora, elemental lizal for gerudo, goron dont fight so no need to improve on thier "weapons" which arent really weapons but mining tools, and the rito use bows so no need really for improvement except their spears using boko parts
what a cool challenge :D this showed me parts of the game I'd never bumped into
That queen gibdo fight would have been so much easier if you did not leave 3 out of 4 hives intact lol
Its pretty cool that you now do the Botw Challenges in Totk...
Im hyped for these typed of Videos
YES!! I'VE BEEN SO EXCITED FOR THS!!
Can we appreciate how good his aim is like it is on point
The kingdom hearts battle music added in post is fun, i love kh bgm.
Finally beat the game yesterday and im happy to finally watch this vid !
You know it’s a good day when croton posts a challenge video!
7:30 you can also throw materials (like apples, monster parts, etc) at those and it'll break them! It takes a few tries to get the right angle, but its not terribly difficult, so anything you have too much of would be good.
When croton uploads a new challenge video you know today will be a good day!
Its awesome that your doing the challenges in totk
Yes croton I'm so happy is finally here
Awesome vid! One of my faves.
Yay I’ve been waiting for this lets gooo❤
I've been waiting so long for you to start your challenge runs in TOTK
Now that your video is live I am doing my own Gerudo run then will watch yours and compare our approaches. I think that’s a fun way to interact with your challenge runs. Can’t wait to finish watching your run
Sounds awesome, I hope you have fun with it!! 😄
@@CrotonBeat Gannon last night and had a blast with this run! The Molduga killed me more than Gannon and his army 😂. I fought 3 of the Lynel in the Floating Colosseum and had a rough time getting bows but your map helped. Can’t wait to do this for each of your challenge runs. Keep up the great work!
Awesome you’re making Tears of the Kingdom certain type only videos that’s so cool
1:07:24 i bawled my eyes out with laughter on that!!! 😂
Lets go have been waiting for this
41:10
Heat of the desert
Dust settles on my face
Without a compass a soldier knows no disgrace
Did anyone else see the yiga logo in the last frame before the end card? I think next run will probably be a yiga run. Amazing video croton!
31:51 croton are you safe?
For those curious, the reason the sled seemed to not work randomly during the race is because that only works on shifting sand, not static sand, for some reason
Time for moooree of these totk challenges❤
This man deserves 1 million subscribers and a lot more views for the time and effort he puts in
The early parts of the video turns into “CAN YOU PARRY THAT EPISODE 19”
Finally I’ve been waiting for Totk challenge runs since the game came out
Had to start off with the best tribe! But fr I've been waiting for this since totk released!
We had to fight gerudo with gerudo, it was the best way to start thank you!!
I’ve been waiting for him to do this with tears
Yes you can beat the game with only gerudo. Croton did I answer your question correctly
I love the sonic air ride soundtrack!!! So fitting
Can't wait for the next one. ❤❤❤❤
I love doing stuff like this give me a challenge on the game I have beat it 4 times already I ended up playing the same as the first one. I wonder if you will end up upgrading the armor next time lol
Wow, whilst I was in my Rito Gear only challenge, I noticed this came out. Obviously this comment is a few weeks late, I also noticed from a screen recording that this came out literally 2 days after I started my Rito Gear only run. Besides that, you did amazing on this challenge run! :)
