What does it take to start a journey of a beloved character like Zelda in her mystic journey in Tears of Kingdom? An innocent and earnest question through the online avenues sparked what turned out to be a pretty engrossing exchange of ideas, tips, and some handy equestrian advice – shall we say, pertaining to Epona, the famous in-game horse.
Summary
-
Several suggest inexpensive amiibo cards for those wanting in-game drops rather than the collector’s figurine.
-
Super Smash Bros collection’s Link amiibo gets a recommendation as the magic charm to summon Epona on the very first use.
-
The light tone and helpful exchange points towards a friendly and supportive gaming community.
Horse Hunting
‘I don’t think any of them drop a horse,’ writes WentzWorldWords. The straightforward yet somewhat cheeky statement brings a hint of humor to the often serious business of amiibo hunting, setting the tone for a heartening discussion.
Amiibo to the Rescue
But not all hope is lost! Bitter_Astronaut_685 comes to the rescue, ‘You want the super smash bros collection amiibo Link,’ they suggest, clearly based on their own successful attempt. And the bonus tip? ‘Do it near a stable,’ they say, amping up the mood and bursting the myth in a single blow.
A way around it
For those less picky about the collectability and more inclined to practicality, both benrodgers77 and MeatVulture mention a set of amiibo cards. These allegedly cover a wide range of characters and supposedly work well with Tears of Kingdom. Perhaps a cost-effective alternative for amiibo starters or those averse to hoarding physical knick-knacks, it left us curious, to say the least.
After sifting through the input, it seems our friend Disneyfan3339 took the plunge and returned home with a Twilight Link amiibo. Safe to say, with the guidance of their newfound mentors in the Zelda world, they’re in for an exciting expedition.
