This first part of our solution complète Zelda : Breath of the Wild will explain how the game works. It will summarize your progress in the adventure, how to explore the surroundings, how to improve Link, etc.
La structure de Zelda Breath of the Wild :
The game will consist of two parts. The first will be the Main Story: it will allow you to learn more about Link's story and meet all the important characters, allowing you to eradicate the Ganon threat. The second part of the game will be dedicated to Side Quests. It will happen quite often that a character offers to help you, without it being essential for the main story. By succeeding in his challenge, you will obtain objects allowing you to progress more quickly in the game, by obtaining new clothes, rubies or even cooking recipes.

Get a mount:
You will find all the information on this subject in our section "How to get your first mount". You will be able to obtain your first mount after having validated the mission "The isolated plateau". It will then be possible to get out of the very first zone of the game thanks to the Paraglider. As you move you can find groups of horses. Approach them discreetly and press the A button to climb over them. The more powerful the horse, the more stamina it will take to successfully tame it. Then go to a relay to save the horse and be able to pick it up as you see fit.
The exploration system:
By exploring the map you can find points of interest. The most basic will be the "enemy encampment". By fighting all the enemies in the camp a chest will appear and allow you to collect more powerful items for your progress.
Then come the Towers, by going to the top of the Tower you can activate its terminal and thus reveal part of the map. You will find all the information concerning the Towers in our section "The Towers".
Finally, it will also be possible to discover Villages and Sanctuaries, in the first you will often have many side quests to solve. Concerning the Sanctuaries, they will allow you to obtain Emblems of Triumph in order to increase your life and/or endurance bar. You will find the location of all these sanctuaries in our "Sanctuaries" section.
Link's progress:
The further you progress in the game, the more powerful weapons and armor you will get. In addition, it will be possible to find the location of the Great Fairy Fountains, allowing you to increase your outfits.
In Zelda: Breath of the Wild, there will be hidden Korogus who will give Korogus Nuts. It will then be possible to exchange these nuts for slots in your inventory.
Finally, know that the more you fight a type of enemy, the more powerful it will become! So be careful not to stay in the same area for too long killing the same enemies over and over.
Cooking in Zelda Breath of the Wild:
Cooking will have an important part in the game. It will increase your statistics for several seconds / minutes and raise your life. To do this, you will have to find a pot, make a fire if it has not already been done, then place the requested ingredients inside in order to obtain a dish. You will find in our "Inventories" section all the possible recipes.
Sheikah Tablet modules:
You will get the "Range Bombs", "Polaris", "Cinetis" and "Cyronis" module at the start of the game by validating the Four Sanctuaries. These modules will solve many puzzles but also turn the fights to your advantage. Afterwards, you will get the "Camera" module in the Legacy of Zelda quest.
