Something I’ve noticed while playing #totk is that the further I progress, the less I want to fight enemies. It’s no big deal killing everything I see when my weapon is stick with a rock attached but now that I’m running around with pristine weapons with lynel horns I don’t want to use them on random enemies.
I find carrying a variety of weapon tiers avoids this problem. Also, sneak attacks, environmental kills, fire, confusion, sages, trampling…
