max is +42, so you got very lucky. i would keep it for a boss fight if you haven’t finished those, or just put it in your house as a cool little flex

You can have a house in botw?

u/Physical_Stuff6787 15h ago

Yes in Hateno village. It’s a whole side quest

u/illegaleyes__ 13h ago

damn. Off I go to find a house.

Yea, there’s an abandoned shack outside of Hateno, it can be fixed up and furnished. If you keep going with the quest, it leads to an even longer one that has a very satisfying end. The whole quest chain is a side quest and easily missable. No worries if you hadn’t found it till now :)

Unironically my favorite quest line in the game

You gotta talk to some Village People, young man…. Sorry for the silly pun

And an even bigger quest after you get the house. No spoilers but, it'll be pretty demanding, though just as rewarding.

If that's your highest, I'd say save it for lynels only. When you're fighting them, mount them and attack them with this. Whenever you attack them this way, whatever weapon you are attacking them with won't lose any durability. Pop a +3 attack meal and you'll be able to take em down wicked fast 👍👍

Yep, I don’t have a sword this strong yet but this would 100% become my Lynel-mounting only weapon

Go to Hyrule Castle often and grind. It has top tier weapons and elemental arrows!

u/Georgies_Left_Arm 13h ago

If you have your ancient gear to at least a 2 tier using a 75 guardian weapon would work faster. Or Barbarian gear with a 100+ royal guard claymore. But yeah definitely a good drop!

True. I just assumed they were not too far in the game if they were asking about what to do with it lol

1

u/Georgies_Left_Arm 12h ago

That's a good assumption. The poster saying they just finished the last trial for the Master sword made me think they were. I hated the Beginning trials on Master mode! Lol

u/Ecl1psed 12h ago

The yellow modifier on the Savge Lynel Sword is actually one of the last modifiers to appear, based on the game's XP system, iirc. So OP is definitely far in the game!

u/AxureRale 12h ago

Oh yeah that's true. Haven't played in a bit totally forgot about that. Unless they're just going around beating everyone up and not doing any actual missions haha

I suggest testing your willpower and throwing it into the ocean just to let go of something you covet

Its a sword in a video game dude

Dw, was js making a silly joke. I'd actually be down for this kind of challenge, especially with the fact that i've defeated a Lynel with a tree branch before (if you know how that type of combat works, yes, it's possible without having it breaking), so i'd be just fine without that sword. It actually makes the challenge too easy to be a real challenge, since i wouldn't mind getting rid of the sword all that much.

All cows and giggles until they say its badly damaged

u/Fearless-Range7744 14h ago

I got a Lynel crusher a few days ago and it had the full +42 attack. Made it do over 100 damage. Literally best weapon I’ve got

u/stanleyyounger_16 8h ago

Im only hunting the silver lynels because of the gemstones they drop and a chance for a star fragment to drop. Im also gonna hunt rare stone talus and the 3 moldugas every blood moon

u/GuyWhoMostlyLurks 8h ago

At this point on your journey, those are the only prey worthy of your blade!

u/NewMechaDriver 9h ago

u/stanleyyounger_16 9h ago

North Tabantha Snowfield. Theres 3 different silver lynels

u/stanleyyounger_16 10h ago

So I've done all of the main missions and got every single shrine for max hearts. I asked what should i do with it because Ive never had a rare drop like this before. Also i do have the yes and the shield and sword are framed. The shield was 1 point away from 84 guard. Same lynel to, i posted that as well

u/Firekill2-22 7h ago

The guard points on a sheild do nothing it's only real stat is the durability

u/loinmin 5h ago

KEEP IT, USE IT ONLY ON LYNELS WHEN YOU RIDE THEIR BACK, ZERO DURABILITY DAMAGE DURING THAT TIME HOLY SMOKES
