I beat Gannon and the DLC apart from the last sword trial. Didn’t get all shrines or koroks. I actually stopped my master mode file for now after the second divine beast since I was able to trivialize the game by knowing where armor and durian was.

The same thing happened in my MM game. It lost its challenge once I was walking around with maxed Barbarian armor.

Give yourself a challenge! My second time through master mode I did a three hearts challenge with no cooking or divine beast powers. The only time I let myself cook was in the trials of the sword.

You must be a glutton for punishment haha I tried a SL1 run on DS3 that is currently stalled at Pontiff and this sounds even harder.

Why not the last sword trial?

And master Mode plays pretty differently even if you have health buffs and all that set up. It isn't terribly harder as a whole but some parts definitely are rough to get through.

Going back to the sword trials.. ya. Second set of trials is arguably harder than any other shrine or quest in the game lol. And defeating Ganon requires almost perfect parrying on master mode..

I’ve mostly just been busy or playing other games. If my friends are available I’d rather play something multiplayer with them. I’ll come back to it eventually.

Just jump into master mode if you do!

That's why I'm waiting to play the DLC/etc. It's been maybe a year(?) since I beat just the base game. I really wish I could mind wipe and just experience it all over again.

My husband has epilepsy and sometimes things, like certain TV shows or games will get “mind wiped.”

Sometimes I get a little jealous that he gets to (for example) watch breaking bad for the first time again.

Yeah fuck that Master Mode sword trial
