How to beat Trial of the Sword pt.1 - The Beginning Trials

I guess today we're going to be looking at the first part of a three-part tutorial video series for trial of the sword traveled sword is really really cool in that it's very reminiscent of having tied islands and I like the way that it forces the players to sort of adapt based on what little resources that they have available much like with the first Zelda game now the nice thing about this is that champion powers are disabled but she could glyph upgrades are not so as you can see I'm actually making very very spammy use of the bombs and it one shots each redbull cobbling very very easily and it turns blue bow columns for their health as well too just like that try to aim your attacks at the log and then get all that's left is just for you to pick up whatever is here now two-handed weapons actually break open boxes and barrels in one hit so I just go over here we get a lot of fruits a lot of healing and I'm just going kind of this with three hearts to see just to show you guys that I actually do make quite a bit of mistakes and if you guys have more hearts than more power to you so rule number two is pretty straightforward as well you pull off the guy and make you could if you had more health and you're feeling brave you could use the updraft to fight against the enemies there with whatever weapons that you cut from the previous room but I decides to go straight for the bow and break open the nearby barrels to get myself more arrows as you can see over here and then you climb up the ladder use my bullet time I have all my stamina I feel like having stamina is a bigger advantage than having a lot of hearts in my opinion anyway they have all the time in the world to build up that build with your headshot to get consecutive headshots if you can and of course since you think at the updrafts earlier you're going to have to shoot down and waste to Andros unfortunately as what I had to do as well otherwise again bombs are your best friend try to use the square ones more since they don't roll and yeah that's pretty much does it for room number two nothing really too much to go over here you can open the barrels although one important thing actually is I believe there's a bow that you can get here that is already stronger than the boat Bobo cobos or very very weak and they don't do nearly very much damage but yeah there we go so seconds room I'm sorry no second time third room is really really scary but there's not really much else that I can say except just make excessive use of your bombs you bomb everything as best as you can and run think about your bombs that they float and these guys do like to create their updrafts so it's the best that you kind of just run and then drop as you run away and that it's pretty dangerous early on and in my opinion this room is I'm sorry this level of the trial of the sword is probably the deadliest and the hardest one in my opinion again as you can see here making use of the bombs while I still can while the enemies are still weak you'll see me doing this a lot I'm just like trying to lure enemies toward the bombs one warning though that uh be very careful when it comes to actually laying down your bombs with all your gloves because a lot of enemies are smart they like to kick it or pick up the bone throw it back at you so I would advise you guys to detonate it in midair as you see me doing here because I believe it also counts as a head I might not I don't I can't really confirm this but I'm pretty sure having an explosion go over a head and hitting them square in the head counts as a head shot and would count a double damage but uh don't quote me on that so those two boca auckland's it takes a little bit longer to guess I'm actually showing you a mistake that I made there is a guy that all the way up on this tower but I completely forget about this guy and didn't nearly ended the run so I jumped off hit him in the face with an arrow and I had to heal up before getting back on the ladder again so yeah I just make sure that you clear out that guy is a guy with fire arrows watch out otherwise yeah just run up blow them up really really cheeky epic explosion that I have over here and there's some pretty good loot in these boxes as I'm aware of most of the time it's going to be arrows and you'll want a lot of arrows so yeah I got the fire arrows here coming which are going to come in handy later travelers bow it's better than the focal bow at least that we have we have to bow go bow at the mo and mighty bananas which is going to come in handy later in the trial now floor number five we have a skull cavern and tomb hablen the name of the game for the entire trial of the sword is to get enemies one of the times you see here I'm luring the sky using stasis you have every advantage in a 1v1 situation but then in a 1v2 situation or 1v3 situation you are at a disadvantage especially because the equipment that they give you in the beginning trials is exceedingly weak it's that's why in my opinion is the hardest out of the three parts that we're going to be looking at in this series so again using stasis remember stasis glyphs any upgrades to cry honest or your bombs does not you know it doesn't disappear because you enter the trial of the sword so it is it might be a good idea for you guys to do that I made the mistake I make way too much noise killing the second model and so I factored all these guys from their cave but yeah I had to sort of make some air time unfortunately I wasted quite a bit of arrows killing these guys because I wasn't sure if I could land any or all of my bombs like they're really intimidating they're going at me with these flame weapons but thankfully thankfully eventually I was able to beat them yeah I remember specifically at this part someone in the chat told me to be careful because it might kick it I actually waited I deliberately waited an extra second to make sure so yeah go inside the room there were some crates that you could blow up all of them containing arrows and wild berries there's also mighty bananas as well if I didn't blow it up then I could have used that in a recipe but that's neither here nor there for number 6 we get ourselves to stones house now in my opinion the regular stone Tallis for this trial or the masam Vietnam master trial the trial the sword is the hardest that will ever encounter compared to the ice talus and the fire talus my main strategy would usually involve me never ever having to get off his back the moment I get on what I do is I spend times hit'em I don't know what it was what link was trying to do to end up swinging at the boss and on to the weak point so I end up falling off but if I were to hit him he would have staggered and then fell forward while he's falling forward I could use the paraglider to stay aloft and and land straight back down but I use the spaces on him and again and then jump on them and just try my best to finish him off which unfortunately it's proving to be a little bit challenging because yeah this guy moves a lot that's why I'm always saying this guy is one like probably the biggest challenge because you have to knock them down obviously right and sometimes that might mean using bombs to get rid of the arms which is the most common way of dealing with him but then with the elementals all you have to do is hit them with the opposite elements and then they'll automatically fall down so yeah either you just survive having be struck down me I don't even know how I survived usually they're like God will disguise a god he can just aim at me and like yeah and I don't even know what it is sometimes there'll be parts of your battle where he's just completely invincible to your bombs but you know that eventually you'll take him down and while this is the most challenging variants soon as you get him out of the way he is far from the hardest challenge of the beginning trials as well I'll say it over and over and over again if I can the beginning trials are the hardest of all of them and was here's the break room I made a mistake I just ran in thankfully I did I didn't get punished for the mistake but I highly recommend as soon as you answer a break room immediately crouch and head for your fairies fairies are extremely important and they were super merciful with us by letting us have them so yeah you get a shield at the mind's eye and eightfold blade and a serpentine spear pretty good and it's going to come in handy later there are some gather there are a couple of ingredients that you can get here as well dar razor shrooms and iron fruits apples recipes inside of the crates as we saw earlier and extra arrows it is worth the time to take a break here armoured carps can give you a good damage well I'm not damage bonus defense bonus what I did here though I was thinking of cooking the raw meat but I thought now we'll just will not cook it and instead we'll combine it with a razor shrooms and the mighty bananas and that gave me a tier 3 um attack boost that can be super useful especially you'll actually see me put it to good use and I highly recommend you guys do that as well and you get the mighty bananas from one of the earlier rooms and a crate and then the razor shrooms inside of the break room okay so next floor of yeah as you see over there very common tactic to keep a lookout for it's the user stasis to count how many enemies you're going to be dealing with so yeah I did a short count located everyone I actually made a mistake here I should have aggro'd him by hitting him with an arrow so that I wouldn't agro the guy on the left who would be shooting me with arrows it was pretty brutal and ah this is this really frustrated me for whatever reason I crouched I got too anxious I think when I was holding my control stick like hint getting crouch happens to the best of us and it definitely happened to me here uh the footage is that you guys are watching right now was done on the stream and the thing is though what kind of the point that I want to put across is that I did not do this perfectly I did none of this perfectly I like I made so my name is hilarious actually but you'll see it later but I made many many mistakes and as something like you don't need to play perfect to be trialed the sword you just need to like he kind of just needs to adapt to it and then continue yeah you don't have less something that we like you don't need to be perfect to win this part scared me now I I thought we were going to end the run here because yeah I was in the water again I wanted I want to bait out one of them so I can fight them one at a time but unfortunately these guys are pretty tightly knit together the main strategy really if you find yourself in a in a 2v1 situation is tried to focus down one guy as quickly as you can to quickly even odds in your favor because again as I said earlier 1v1 you have every advantage to win in a 2v1 you have your edit inherent disadvantage and a 3v1 even worse for everyone screw it but yeah then bombs are your friends they're free damage they don't cause any durability or whatsoever and if you upgraded the glyphs you can just alternate between both of them without having to worry about the cooldown I was very proud of myself that I lined up a headshot and followed up with a bomb so there is a treasure chest here as well several crates containing arrows again very useful always always take the time to find your arrows using the two-handed weapon will destroy the boxes in one hit as I should have said earlier and there is Magne sis for a crates but I think this was just in this room to serve as sort of a bludgeon I personally don't like it very much because I don't do enough damage to the enemies especially as you'll be seeing in a future room in this video and it just leaves you open to enemy attack so maybe maybe you guys might find a good use for it but you know I'm not gonna like I'm not delicious P gaming I can't kill rhino using metal bookcases and rocks like I'm not good you guys like look at this like these misses okay so the only thing about lightning whiz robes is that they have no elemental weakness you have to kill them through either drowning them I sure do I was kind of hoping that I would be able to drown it but that did that ended up not panning out and I was frustrated I think we had another near-death experience I ran out of stamina and it was just deep enough for me to drown and so I love a whole heart for that but now shrug it off again like I'm saying I did not this is not an optimal run for me I've done runs that but at least I've done this room in in ways that were way better but again you don't need to be perfect to win trial the sword you just have to be close enough so again yeah this guy just part really scary because I stay system and my weapons didn't have enough range I should have used a spear for this part but that's all I can really say though at least get one hit with an arrow on stasis does it you'll still get the dagger bonus once he leave stasis so freaking out this work to see someone's a bat and now was the last thing I wanted I lost my one business things that constantly be in my face and then stunned me for like three whole seconds but yeah I just I ran drop the bomb and I had to wait again see that you know this was just oh everything was going downhill and also yet bit of an anecdote I had quite a few people watching the stream it was the most we've had ever that's on a BB gun he got craziest or the end of the stream but and like I felt all those eyes on me and I was really really really nervous for this section it gets better but again like I'm always saying you didn't have to give perfect okay under ground floor ten I despise that this is probably in my opinion the hardest area in the entire trial of the sword because if you see here I have an attack up bonus but even then I should prepared more for this part I think III feel like I should have like in hindsight prepared more so that I would have a lot of durability on my bows so I can quickly waste these guys because no matter what you do you're going to have that freebie one it is a guaranteed 3v1 or made like you might fluke it and I just have it so that only the other guy would be the bow and arrow notices you but as you can see over here like I'm I'm trying to hide I'm trying to get headshots on this guy but I don't do nearly enough damage my bows are constantly breaking and the spit attack does so much to me because I only have three hearts here I'm trying til I kind of find cover I even tried using the crates to bludgeon the guy with mag nice about it just it did not work out I'm trying really hard to get my my head shot again lose me with a single quarter so lucky and I think we had like 80 people watching I wasn't most we've ever gotten on this channel so again I wasn't so nervous cuz thinking oh I was gonna watch me fail what do I do so I'm yeah and then like the bubbles of the spit just hit through me I lost very yeah so I you didn't see I actually cut it out because I'm for time constraints I tried bludgeoning him with MEK nieces and that did not pan out at all I barely did any damage to one of the guys so yeah like all I can really say is again it's a 3d one situation but I should have done it was going to whaling on the guy on the left but in an emergency reaction you just run down over here with your bombs then use your bombs to knock them off they'll survive obviously because they're in previous right or well lizards but they do survive in the water their aquatic not maybe it's women saying they're aquatic and I don't even know my son's Annette sorry guys I'm not a biologist you just kind of funnel your way through there gives you some breathing room use that time basically give that time to kind of reflect yourself and figure routes look for opportunities to get them one at a time as best as you can I was looking for the bow but I think one of the lizalfos actually pick up the bow of the archer that I killed but all I can really say something like try to get as much damage as you can if they're together these are both separate them and if you get the chance try to focus them down one at a time again to v2v ones are brutal and trial of the sword because we're just really really under equipped at this point so again as you see here I've got the bomb use that to separate us and I have actually I was thinking it I had this guy alone I didn't knock him down so I thought Walsh tried to focus him down but then he fell off so again this guy's all by himself I this was just brutal you guys and stasis is also your best friend stasis is so broken and I think it's mainly due to stasis that we've even survived for this long definitely useful I highly recommend stasis like I use stasis very very very often in this in this challenge that I've been doing I don't know I don't even think I can do it without stasis and low stamina but yeah so finally I have one guy ultimate self using bombs to get as much damage as I can because I want to preserve my weapons for the next couple of floors but this isn't even like this is even the second glass this is of the penultimate challenge at the beginner trial this is like the third last challenge and I'd go as far as say that it's the hardest simply because you're under equipped um you're guaranteed to go for that matter eveyone oh it was awful up again you have to be patience you have to stay calm I freaked out a lot this part for those of you guys that watch the stream I freaked out so much nearly died there almost kill the run I'm bringing out I'm coming the binocular crazy crazy crazy fight but so rewarding once you beat it though that's not I gotta say like the stasis was the MVP for this this challenge and eventually actually like as soon as I can aim properly I finished it and that does it for for number 10 easily be most difficult challenge in here so yeah just pick up your boxes and move on to number 11 so floor 11 was weird because I get to that boat to go across but I knew that we'd be sitting ducks I've never ever in my life used the other rafts so I just used cry honest I skipped it because again that would take so long but I use cry honest to get all the way across and then slowly making my way and picking off the people one by one thanks to the boat on using the Lowe's elbow that I got in the previous room a head shot is a one-hit kill for the blues and then no matter where I hit the Reds it will kill them so I try to need for that guy but then I saw that there was a guy with fire arrows I did not want to deal with that so I just went back around and tries to appear from the power side of the room opposite end of the entrance and yes picking off this guy one at a time again kind of speeding my way through here because I do spend a lot of time working this floor because there it's just everyone's so spaced out and that's what I like though that's why I felt was so reminiscent of the old Zelda games or leave the first one is that like you have a very limited set of tools and you have to use them creatively if you want to win I screwed up there I should have switched weapons but yeah get your get your spear I'm just loading myself up getting ready for this next guy a black bloke hobbling probably the hardest enemy on this floor in the very least whenever you stasis someone you guys probably know this by now but yeah whenever you see someone at least hit them once because if they're a normal enemy then bill crumpled but uh yeah it's just something that you want to keep in mind I missed that one it actually wasn't worth the two fire arrows high-waisted getting this guy cuz it didn't even kill I thought would at least knock them like send them flying into the water but can't have nice things got myself ready a bullet time there I don't know how but the red book holding behind this guy understand notice me so he would fire arrows and I could never predict how these guys feel their did their aim sometimes they'd be like amazing and other times they'd be so stupid where they they would shoot where I was five minutes ago but eventually he just stopped noticing me and I was able to get these guys in relative peace alright so I have everything here I'm basically I'm gonna make my way to the top of that big section towards my rights and hi this is viola little cameos right there was a like lettuce new switch HUD this new switch interface get to see you people and what they're playing and their usernames make cameo appearances so I make my way towards the top there is a big Bell cobbling waiting for me but before I do I decide to take the time so you would get myself ready organize my stuff and open these boxes what are these boxes I think it's gonna be arrows yeah arrows and some apples definitely something that I will be interested in considering this is the second last floor of is it a singing last long pretty sure is a second last lower but yes I can last floor of this nothing about spaces as well go through shields or at least you can bypass the shield relatively quickly I wanted to use stasis to knock this guy into the water so I won't have to deal with him anymore but I did like his weapons I had a shock shock wands I believe I believe I had the Thunder Thunder rod item you can use that and if you have chakras you can use that as well to disarm people really easily so something that you guys want to keep in mind something that I completely forgot about is that you can actually use shock arrows or any other form of electricity just to you know just to disarm them which is really really good so yeah I open up these boxes help yourself to the fire arrows and I believe there are fire arrows in this chest over here which again is going to come very much so in handy for this next parts the final room of the beginner trials okay final challenge is phone numbers well we fight against blue he talks now because it actually didn't know that it was the final challenge um so I was playing much more carefully with my arrow than I should have been but essentially since it is the final challenge you can just spam the bow really this spam away at the bow since yeah like you're not going to retain any items that you gain in these try up in the trial of the sword so you might as well just go for broke fire away and eventually I just get to it and just spam let's look it up like the he Knox's actually is that I actually I get really scared being in these guys are so intimidating um what I would do I'll just hit him in the face with an arrow because of bows and the way they are they're just like the most powerful weapons that you can get in trial of the sword like ironically the bows are the go-to weapon that will give you the most advantage the key to beating him just again don't get cornered using stasis on his eye as well increases the chance of actually hitting him cuz he ca here like you'll actually see this quite often in these videos I miss my arrows all wats I think it's because they made headshots a lot harder to pull off or at least slightly harder like changed it really but thankfully this guy was generous enough to present his eyes to me so that I can shoot them but again that's kind of the main thing is that yet don't rush too much like you're not speedrunning I'll just speed running me out rush as much as you want but again the key to beating trial the sword is just don't rush take a break if you have to look at what mistakes you've made never think that the game was so unfairly stacked against you because there are ways around us you just need to be creative and how you do your stuff and most importantly just remember that even if you make mistakes here and there again you don't have to be perfect to win you just have to be good enough so yeah that is going to be it for the beginning trials next time we're going to be looking at the middle trials which in my opinion is way easier than this one in my opinion how to rank the difficulty as a beginning trials of the hardest and final trial being the second hardest and then middle trials as being like well it's a fun challenge not very intimidating but yeah anyways guys thank you very very much for watching and I'll see you later [Music] you [Music] you [Music]
