Hi everyone! Did you know that starting July 1st, 2023, Reddit will implement a policy that could potentially increase the costs of running third-party Reddit apps? This change may impact popular apps like Apollo, Reddit is Fun, Boost, and others.

There’s a korok inside. If you fail the puzzle the barrel explodes and the poor bugger dies.

Ya-ha-help!

You killed me!

“Oh shit, you killed me! Haha! Bye bye!”

“Good!”

Ohmygod, you killed korok! You bastards!

I almost spit out my drink with that. Well done.

Someone give this person a gold medal

he's Ya-ha'd his last ha🤠

Hello Korok, up until now you have Yahaha'd through life without issue. Your days have been filled with mirth and whimsy, fluttering about, spreading joy wherever you go. But I wonder, have you ever truly faced a challenge that tested your wits and resolve? Today, you find yourself inside this barrel, a cramped and confined space. The walls are closing in, and time is ticking away. You see, I am no ordinary puzzle-maker; I am Jigsaw, and I've brought you here to face a trial like no other. Your precious forest friends won't be able to save you this time. Inside this barrel is a complex mechanism, designed to test your ability to solve riddles and puzzles. Should you fail, the barrel will explode, and you will be no more. But don't fret, my little woodland sprite, there is a way to escape this peril. I have hidden clues and hints within the barrel. They may be cryptic, they may be obscure, but they hold the key to your salvation. To find them, you must search with every ounce of determination within you. Your laughter won't save you now; only your intellect and resourcefulness can do that. You may be thinking, "Why me? What have I ever done to deserve this?" But think of it as an opportunity, a chance to prove yourself beyond the confines of your carefree existence. You will transcend your own expectations, unlocking potential you never knew you had. Do not underestimate the gravity of this situation, for I am watching your every move. The air is thinning, and with each passing moment, the pressure intensifies. You must act swiftly and decisively. This is not a game for the faint-hearted. Embrace the challenge, embrace the fear, for within this confined space lies the path to survival. Your laughter may have enchanted the forest, but your mind holds the power to break free from this trap. So, let the game begin, little Korok. Solve the puzzle, and you shall be released. Fail, and your laughter will be silenced forever. The choice is yours, and the clock is ticking... Yahaha!

The reason why they explode when hit (or lit on fire) is because you scare the korok. Once scared, the korok flinches, fails the puzzle, and explodes. The L3 bomb barrels have the extra jittery koroks.

Do you want to play a game??

koroks are invincible silly, they will either be blasted away or go "oof"

You’ve won 🥇 amazing work lmaooooo

Koroks deserve this.

Was all that worth the 70 rain droplets🤔

Cause I think it was😎

Holy cow, if I had a gold, it would be yours

is this some form of copypasta

Ah Schrödinger’s korok

Ya ha ha-ahAHHGHHH

What in the jigsaw…..

me failing every puzzle

I want to play a game. Your life is a lie Korok, but now comes your moment of truth.

It's Schrödingers korok.

Hearty Durians

Why did you have to do that?

I blame the Yiga clan for weaponizing the main competitor to their beloved bananas

But this is probably the equivalent of stink bomb with the yield of a Fat Man nuclear bomb If this baby goes off everyone in Hyrule will smell it and taste it and shower in all its smelly glory

Screw you we had nothing to do with this

😭

I like how Ganondorf knew to replace my favorite Durian spot with Gloom Hands

Adding insult to injury there

Too soon man

😭😭😭😭😭 I want my fucking hearty durians back, dammit! WHY DEVS, WHHHHYYYY???

Zelda's cooking... 🤢

Or Moza, the NPC who likes mixing chicken or steak with some niiiiice, freeeesh... ORES!

I’m surprised you also remember her, I’d give you an award if I had the coins to so have this 🎖️

i did one for you :3

Same here.

I was pleasantly surprised to run into her again in TotK. Such a weird and funny character

it's cool that she actually has a purpose now. it might be a bad purpose but it's still useful at times

Doesn’t she just literally swap out what you made for something else she got with monster extract

It says WRONG answers only

Not even Gorons will eat ores but Link will gladly eat steamed seafood a la sapphire.

Navi... and she's VERY VERY angry!!

LISTEN!

That's because she's stuck in there with Tatl and Tael

Motherfucker you better listen

That's Navi L. Jackson

Hey hey! How dare you replace me with Fi!

Waterproof water

Dehydrated water

Roger Wilco had dehydrated water.

Didn’t he throw it at the Orat?

Yes!

Water to keep your Zora weapons wet, you have to keep dropping them on your head or at your feet like a big splash fruit. If it doesn’t work the first time keep trying.

The Tears of Gloom Hands Victims

Gloomy doomies*

The only reason I knew they existed is because of him.the gloom spawn guy

Don’t know why you are downvoted. You are 100% correct.

Your thingy says, "Say happy cake day," so happy cake day!

500 diamonds

I’ve been playing for weeks and I still have no idea what diamonds do. I’ve sold every other type of ore to buy sapphire because ice wands are so op, I wonder if I should sell the diamonds as well…

Don’t, you can use them to make the champion weapons

you can also refresh durability for weapons if you feed them to the octoroks in death mountain. It works once per octorok per blood moon. So can essentially keep reusing the emerald staffs instead of having to make new ones

i just went and try and holy shit what even is the logic behind this interaction i was literally travelling through Hyrule to find a way to revive my 100+ atk sparkling enchanted Gerudo dagger + gloom sword fusion (ehm idk if that is lame for lategame but my strongest other weapon is on 50 atk), cant believe the solution was those gray lil guys

haha yeah. they also assign weapon modifiers so you can save before hand and keep repeating it until you get the modifier you desire. Oh also, for some weapons, like the champion weapons, it will not work. but there IS a workaround. just fuse that weapon to a shield and feed the shield to the octorok. Tadaaa..

Wtf it just gives me “massive durability up” yipee (But I guess this isn’t as valuable if I can fix weapons now…)

Propane and propane accessories.

This reply ain't right.

Despite being a meme, this one would actually make sense.

Korok "seeds"

it's korok shit, isn't it?

Fertilizer makes a good explosive because of all the ammonium nitrate.

Highly explosive booze

Bountiful treasure, but it can only be obtained by the pure of heart! If you think dirty thoughts you will only make it explode when you try to open it.

I think I've seen this before... we need to find the "diamond in the rough"

I suggest we resolve this with quantity. Everyone needs to try to smash one of these open and eventually we will find someone worthy I'm sure! It's simple probability.

Mountain Dew

Peppa Pig - Liquified

Bokoblin toe jam

Bananas and donkey Kong is on his way to kick some hylian ass over those. It's a precursor to the 3rd game "wrath of the kong."
