I’ve hit a point where all the weapons I have have too low damage. I need to find better base parts. Decayed royal weapons are no longer as good as they used to.
Where can I get a good base weapon that is not the biggoron sword?
For the record, I know royal guard has good damage but I need something that lasts more than 3 hits
Base points aren’t what matter. From an endgame player, I use zora weapons (~12 dmg base I think) and fuse them with silver lynel horns, which are worth 55 and carry the weapons.
The most important part of using weapons is knowing their modifiers. With Zora weapons (Water Warrior), the weapon doubles in damage if link is near water or wet (throwing chuchu or other stuff works for that), bringing damage up to the 120s or so.
In conclusion, the totk system is not about strong damage base items, but instead making use of the item’s properties and fusing strong items to your weapons. It may be easier for you to always be at 1 heart for knights weapons, for example, or maybe you dodge a lot and therefore prefer royal weapons. And if all else fails, don’t forget your damage boosting armors too.
From an endgame perspective would you say the gloom weapons are good till I can beat silver and white lynels?
