I’ve been trying to complete the trial of the sword for a few days now. I’ve failed this trial a lot. Getting better every time, but so slow.

So I’ve been looking for a way to make it easier a little. I can’t use my stuff, I don’t have my blessings, I don’t have my food. I still have my runes and god these remote bombs come in handy. It’s Eventide Island again but even harder.

And then it hit me.

The only thing they can’t take away from me at the beginning of the trial is my health. So if I up my health enough, it’ll be much easier.

So I went. I bought Hearty Truffles at every shop in Hyrule that sold them. Then I went to the Sarjon Woods to farm some Durians. Once I had enough, I headed to a stable and made some cooking.

I really thought I cracked the code here. And you should have seen this « that will show ‘em » look on my face as Link pulled off the pot a full recovery 20 meal.

But what can I say, life is unfair and cruel. I found (and completed) 110 shrines so far, as well as all of the divine beasts. So needless to say, I already have a lot of hearts… and there’s a limited number of maximum hearts that you can have.

So yeah. I can only add 7 hearts to my current health.

I thought I cracked the code and ended up wasting time and ressources for a heart bonus I actually already had in my pocket.

I’m not even mad. I just feel incredibly stupid.
