    I had a full inventory of shields. Then I learned how to shield surf. Then I had 2 shields before I realised I should probably not destroy them all.

    the best part is when you just hit the ground and your shield breaks, floppy link time

      What time is it, kids?

      IT’S TIME TO RAGDOLL!

    And this displays on of the reasons I will not play BotW. I hate with a passion games where your equipment can break.

    1. Deltalus

      Your loss, it’s a great game.

      I don’t know. There have been times when I wished my weapons would break more often so I would have an excuse to get more weapons.

      1. B

        DROP THEM

      2. PixelRen

        You can just throw them at enemies they have a higher chance of breaking and weapons breaking does more damage

    3. Carlosfer2201

      Once you start getting powerfull weapons, those don’t break as easily. I actually have a big problem with having to leave weapons behind, I just can’t carry everything I wished.

      1. notovny

        Agreed. Once you have figured out where a few decent weapons are, and have expanded your slots a bit, the game throws more weapons at you than you can handle. Same with shields. And if somehow, push comes to shove, you wind up with an infinite number of bombs before you leave the Great Plateau.

        And there’s a shield that’s effectively indestructible compared to the others. It eventually will break, but it takes so much punishment that using any other shield instead of it (weather/unshockability permitting) is a deliberate playstyle choice.

      I prefer that than having 999 rupees and not knowing how to spend them

      1. HamCat

        Only 999?
        Why not 4 swords where you can have easily 99,999 rupees and have no idea how to use them?

    5. steamcrusader

      watch “so this is basically zelda”
      they sympathise
      “zelda has an amazing array of unique and powerful weapons, which thanks to BOTw now break!
      yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay….”

  5. Button Mash

    Boom-Shalaka.

  6. Merchant of Pain

    All terrain surfing was never terribly popular. I guess we know why now.

  7. thegoldsmith

    This is surprisingly similar to an actual extreme sport called volcano boarding. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcano_surfing

  8. zachaquack1987

    Must we lay this game mechanic at the feet of Legolas?
    That scene from the Two Towers after all…

  9. Pikachu8unicorn

    Did gamercat ever play breath of the wild

    1. steamcrusader

      of course he did.
      I didn’t.
      I’ve never played zelda at all
      *sniff*
      I’m going to go order link between worlds

      1. steamcrusader

        aaaaaaaaaaand I beat it.

      2. Steamcrusader from the future

        Wow I was really sad three years ago

  10. Katnik

    Do you suppose Gamercat has been reading Calvin and Hobbes ?

    1. ComicCat

      I believe so, my friend

  11. That fluffy waffle

    Little nightmares please

  12. That fluffy waffle

    PLEASE DO LITTLE NIGHTMARES OR PASSPARTOUT

  13. Pikachu8unicorn

    OCTODAD PLZ

  14. Mgwew2

    A BATIM comic plz!

  15. Chrysalis

    To be fair, a hill is a pretty powerful monster. You can hit one for hours and it does practically nothing.

  16. cyberdragon694

    I love shield surfing. I always go to the peak of the highest mountain and start shield surfing down, even on routs not meant for shield surfing. Anything that isn’t a shear rock cliff, I surf down. Sometimes, I even surf down a shear rock cliff! XD

  17. Dragoonmon

    I can’t wait to get a switch this will be awesome!!

  18. Rachel

    Splatoon 2 Please If No Then Ok

  19. provingapoint

    And this is why I don’t do shield surfing.

    (Until I learned that durability doesn’t go down on snow or sand)

  20. nop

  21. Pulsar17

    Breath of the Wild is the first Zelda game I’ve played. I really enjoy it, but now I am not sure about the other Zelda games, as breath is propably the bestvof them.

  22. JigglypuffDude7

    This is why I hate NPCs.

  23. Ender

    I always use the best shield and use daruk’s protection to jump down a cliff.

  24. Frozo

    no matter what i’m shield surfing even if i have one shield i’ll barrel down on it like there’s no tomorrow (if ganon does come out then ya no tomorrow

  25. Frozo

    also good comic for this game meeting the zoras

  26. Lock@Shock@Barrel

    Why are there arrows poking out of him?

    1. Stupidbro

      It might be because of the hobgoblin armed with a bow and had no shield with which to defend himself.

  27. ShadowGamer

    I broke my Hylian shield doing this.

  28. BoomBoi

    I only use shields for shield surfing and thats it. Once you figure out how to do it, you cant forget.

  29. Nekutanmetaru98

    My friend legit has a save file just to do this kind of crap
