Zelda Breath of the Wild - Wii U vs. Switch

[casterofdreams]

The steath/sneaky armor is my jam right now.

I like the way it looks, and I actually do the whole stealth strike thing when ever I can. I know the game really isn't a stealth game but the mechanics aren't too bad where I wouldn't be able to clear out some bases.

I'm currently looking for the sneaky snails for the third upgrade but I can't seem to find very many at the moment.

Snails glow at night and there's three in the pond in Kakariko village.

Nice. I'll check that out. Thanks!

I happened to find the 600 rupees by the blue Lynel that prfsnl_gmr mentioned.

I still don't know where and if you can see your game time?

I need electric bat wings for some upgrades, but the horde of bats on the way to Zora's Domain doesn't seem to be there anymore. Hmm...

Keese Swarms seem to be random. But if you get a bomb into one you get so many wings and eyes.

You find lots of electric bats at night around the swamp near the stable in Lanayru and the mountain range between Lanayru and Hateno at night.

I`m far off from getting it (always years late) but quite curious: are Wii & Switch versions the same, performance, content and gfx wise?

Also, is it true that performance drops when you play it "undocked' on Switch? If so, how much?

Wiiu version runs at a slightly lower resolution, but everything else is the same.

When you play undocked on the Switch, performance is not hit at all. In the dock it runs at 900p, undocked it is at 720p (same as the screen). So despite the underclocked cpu undocked, it does not have any issues.

Do you guys just sell gems?

A merchant in Gerudo town will make resist gear head items with gems. I think they may be all redundant with other head items (not 100% sure on this). I bought a Heat Resistance one for running around in the desert until something better comes along. These can be further upgraded at the Great Fairy with more gems.
