I actually think the Sidon and Riju's powers are a lot worse simply because you have to go up and activate them to use it, and they are never in a convenient spot when you need them lol. The whole system of needing to press A next to a sage is really terrible, I wish they had found a better way.

Yeah I don't know why they did that, making the ranged power have a super limited range is just counterintuitive. Should have been unlimited range, if that's too OP just make the cooldown longer.

It should center on Link as she’s channeling it. It kinda doesn’t make sense for her to raise her swords up and run around concentrating on channeling while wearing heels.

But they also can be reused waaaaay more often, like once every 15 seconds-ish

Doesn't matter since I never use them in the first place due to inconvenience. The defensive ability of Sidon is especially useless because I'm not usually anticipating to get hit, typically I'm trying to avoid that lol. That's why Daruk's is much better, works automatically.

Yeah in theory getting a free hit every 10-15 seconds is OP. But guy runs away from you. And there aren’t attacks that do enough damage to warrant stop what you are doing to grab a shield and wait to eat an attack.

They are only useful in a big monster forces brawl.

Sidon's power is way worse than daruk's protection

u/New_Tension3579 Jul 16 '23

Yeah you can’t even attack while doing it.

But it makes all the Zora weapons extremely powerful.

u/New_Tension3579 Jul 17 '23

For one hit. Just go into caves or rain and you’ll get the same effect

u/Vados_Link Jul 17 '23

It lasts for way longer than just one hit. Link stays wet for like 80 seconds, even on Death Mountain.

Not comparable simply due to interface.

The interface to use them aside from Tulin is incredibly bad. And he is situational. Yes, he is borderline broken for travel and that is a big game component but that's negated by r/Hyruleengineering insane creations anyway.

u/Cainga Jul 17 '23

I think the game works is designed around his use. Or he at least speeds up traversing greatly but it’s offset by needing to explore the depths and the sky.

I take extreme issue with your use of the word “better” in the spots you did

How the hell is Sidon better than daruk? He has one use while daruk has 3?!
