So, I originally intended to free Vah
Medoh starting with absolutely
nothing. I'm challenging myself to complete Vah Medoh by starting in
it with absolutely nothing. No paraglider, no Sheikah Slate, no runes, no equipment.
I'm
gonna be constantly freezing to death, so I will have to
save often. In short, I did not succeed. I was only able to activate 2 of the 5
terminals. One of them on stream, and another during my experiments
afterwards. And as proud as I am for managing
to get that far, leaving the Divine Beast
incomplete is unsatisfying. So I will allow myself to have one thing— And there is but one thing that can
singlehandedly free this Divine Beast: I used Moon Jump Wrong Warping to
escape the Shrine of Resurrection
without grabbing the Sheikah Slate, grabbed a pot lid, then Wrong Warped
to here. I have no paraglider, no Sheikah Slate,
no warm clothing; just a pot lid, and
whatever else I can find here. This chest only has an Ancient Core,
so it doesn't help me. On the other hand, the chest up there
is important! Dangit. That was a really bad jump. I made this jump without a shield,
because I am epic. Unfortunately, I am not required to be
as epic when I have a shield. Now that I've made progress, I need
to save before I freeze to death. Gonna try to get a skew to clip through
this barrier in the meantime. Eck! That didn't work out. (Other attempts to make progress) Alright, let's try that again. I'm after that Guardian's spear, by
the way. Having 2 weapons will let me perform
a wall jump, helping me get one of the
terminals. I also figured I should parry it to death
to save myself from using up any
durability. Let's see if I will continue to suck. Uh oh. I'm not so sure I have enough time. Go go go! Yay! I might as well go grab the map. I can't use it at all because I don't have
the Sheikah Slate, but it arguably counts as progress
towards completing the Divine Beast. The Sheikah Slate you see here isn't
real, by the way. The terminals just don't care whether
I have it in my inventory or not. Though I still won't be able to open up
the map and control the Divine Beast. Yeah! I can totally do that... I'm for sure looking at them right now! Easy! Hell yeah! Eck! I'm starting to get this down. Just gotta throw the spear right here... Now we're good to attempt the wall
jump. Nope. Yes! We're doing it! Gonna try for that skew again. Oh, come on. eck I have the skew I want stored. Now I just have to make it back to the
left wing. Ain't no purple barriers ever gonna
stop me! Extended Shield Clipping, activate! Dammit. There we go! Wahoo! I can't really do anything else right now. So I guess I'll just die. Hopefully the next terminal won't be
as hard as I am anticipating. Post Recording Kleric:
Spoiler: It was. Post Recording Kleric:
After freezing to death so many
times,
I had become attuned to the game's
inner workings. Post Recording Kleric:
You see, while cold, there's an
in-game
timer that damages me once every time
it counts down from 10. Post Recording Kleric:
That timer pauses when the game is
paused,
but it doesn't reset it's countdown progress
ever, even when reloading. Post Recording Kleric:
With this knowledge, I have created
this
accurate timer counting down my death. Post Recording Kleric:
For suspense! Yes!! Finally! It should be smooth sailing from here;
that was the hardest part to my
knowledge.
When experimenting, I actually gave up
trying to find where I could clip back
in-bounds for that terminal. But then LetMeThinkOfAUsername
showed me up and found a spot
almost instantly. Anyway, I am walking on a wall. Time to get the bow! I guess I'll try to get this terminal as well. Go away! I'm trying to get a skew. ECK! Alright, let's try that again. I just grabbed some arrows, so now
I've got access to the most powerful
ability! Bullet time! Oh. I thought I grabbed arrows... You didn't save, you dingus. Guess I'll grab them now. NOW I've got this. By the way, the reason I am saving after
dying is because reloading from death
restores me back to full health, and I'd like to start at full health
always, even if I reload my last save
normally. Why am I so bad right now? There we go. Should I get those ice arrows? Might as well. Or not. That's cool too. Guess I'll do this now. I just damaged my shield twice now
though. Do I really want to get this
and save? Or do I redo this? I'll probably be fine. Maybe try for those ice arrows again. ack Off to go waste all of my bomb arrows
for this terminal. I'm sure I could find a way to clip
inside, but I really don't wanna. I tried cooler ways to move this thing,
but they didn't work. Aww, that push was less satisfying. Oh well. Final terminal! Mhmm, my map that I can look at.
Ah yes. The point. It is glowing. This is it then, I guess. I'm not even sure if I am able to defeat
Wind Blight in under a minute. Ice arrows please? oof While experimenting, I spent an hour
trying to use the exploit to kill Wind
Blight during their entry cut-scene. But either I suck, or it only works inside
Hyrule Castle. That would have saved me from actually
fighting them, but I think it's doable if
they just never go up in the air. Let's hope for good RNG. Good start. Very good start. Those tornadoes
usually kill me. Perfect! It's over, Wind Blight. You are already dead! Neat. I did it. And my prize is the ability to survive
here 20 seconds longer. Nice! This was a lot of fun to do. Subtitle Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip Skip *dies instantly*
