* When you leave the Plateau, take the Old Man's advice and head east on the road towards Kakariko Village before doing anything else, then head to Hateno. There are multiple things there (and on the journey there) that you'll be glad you found early. | * When you leave the Plateau, take the Old Man's advice and head east on the road towards Kakariko Village before doing anything else, then head to Hateno.

* It's also a good idea to do the main 4 quests as soon as possible, because they'll help you get around the world more efficiently. | |||
* Need to pass time waiting for something? Drop a pile of Wood and a piece of Flint on the ground, and slash it with a metal-bladed weapon. Instant Campfire! This is very useful if you're caught in a rainstorm and can't climb to where you need to go, since you can advance time forward and skip the rainstorm. | * Need to pass time waiting for something?

* Pay attention to elemental types: If you see an ice lizard-thing shoot it with a fire arrow. If you see a wizard with a fire wand flying at you, shoot it with an ice arrow etc. | |||
* Each town you get to in areas with extreme environments usually have shops that sell gear that will mitigate the environmental hazard. | |||
* Your ice-spell works in the brown quick-sand type of mud. It also works side-ways on waterfalls. | |||
* The quickest way to tame a horse you just captured is to hold an apple and stand in front of it so it eats it, then repeat until it's at 100%. Apples aren't the only thing they'll eat, and some things you can feed them will transfer abilities to the horse. | |||
* If you need cash early game hunt deer, collect all their prime meat and make 5-stacks of meat skewers, then sell those to whoever for hundreds of rupees a go. A good place to do this is the field called Rabia Plain to the northeast of Kakariko Village. | |||

* Use the stasis ability to highlight the environment in yellow and see everything you can pick up clearly - especially useful in heavily forrested areas with lots of grass and foliage. | |||

* Don't neglect keeping a stock of basic cooked food too. Since you can only have one timer-based buff at a time, it sucks having to replace a useful one with a pointless one just to recover a couple hearts. | * Don't neglect keeping a stock of basic cooked food too.

* Do all your cooking in the last 25 minutes before a blood moon. You'll get critical cooks every time, which increases the effects of the result. | |||
