703 zelda breath of the wild - trouble on samasa plain beach

Dear Readers,

From the last post I glided all the way southeast to the beach south of Samasa Plain, where I was attacked by Stalkoblins, Lizalfos, Stalizalfos and a big Chuchu! Whew! Lots to deal with! Mostly easy to deal with though, apart from the annoying Lizalfos that stayed in the water and spat at me. I had to shoot them with arrows.

After all that was done I was finally free to concentrate on the circle of stones I spotted on the beach. I used Stasis which revealed the missing stone on the other end of this tiny bit of beach. I completed the circle for another Korok seed.

After all that I took a nice rest under the rock that someone already used for a little campfire and shelter. Now that I think about it, maybe I could've shield surfed down that slope on the way here instead of gliding.

702 zelda breath of the wild - tallest tree southeast of rabia plain warp point

Dear Readers,

I warped to Rabia Plain and hiked southeast. I got briefly interrupted by low level Stalkoblins that weren't much hassle, so I continued to the next patch of trees without injury. Lots of animals like deer and foxes were around here freaking out because of all the racket I was causing.

I picked the tallest tree in this patch and climbed to the top, where I found my next Korok seed.

701 zelda breath of the wild - rutala river's lone korok balloon

Dear Readers,

Hey look! I've passed 700 posts on this game! Woo! I also have about 600 Korok seeds! Big milestones! Lots more to do though!

I checked my guide for the next Korok seed near Vah Ruta and it showed there was one in Rutala River to the southwest. Why was it in the middle of nowhere of the river though? I set out to investigate and glided in that direction.

I spotted something as I descended. At first I thought it was a circle of flowers in the water, which amazed me as it seemed very very far down. Then I noticed a propeller, and finally, a single Korok balloon. I shot it with an arrow for another Korok seed.

700 zelda breath of the wild - metal block puzzle southwest of vah ruta

Dear Readers,

It's not the easiest exploring around Vah Ruta so I warped back up there and this time I glided down the right side as I was facing the Divine Beast.

I came across a lone tree and I was convinced the Korok seed was on top so I climbed, but I didn't find anything. Then I looked around and noticed the big metal block puzzle on the wall nearby. That was it!

I went over to it and used Magnesis on the loose metal block nearby to complete the puzzle for another Korok seed.

699 zelda breath of the wild - korok sprite southeast of vah ruta

Dear Readers,

I warped to Vah Ruta and glided down the left side of the mountain as I faced the Divine Beast.

Somewhere down here was a little patch of grass with lots of animals like foxes hanging around. I spotted where I needed to go by the Korok sprite that was flitting and sparkling around here. I parachuted down to it and caught up to it for another Korok seed.

698 zelda breath of the wild - tree at pond northeast of quatta's shelf

Dear Readers,

From the last post I headed northeast down the hill towards the shallow ponds of water.

The larger one had lots of deer just standing there in the water, chilling out.

On the north side of the pond was a big wide tree with a Korok stone in it. I picked it up for another Korok seed.

697 zelda breath of the wild - three tree puzzle at quatta's shelf

Dear Readers,

I stood atop the peak from the last post and checked my map for the next Korok seed. I noticed it was part of a three tree puzzle so I looked around for a group of three trees.

They stood out easily enough to the west and I hiked in that direction. I had to make the leftmost tree look like the other ones by picking the apples that didn't match, which made a Korok appear with another seed for me.
