What are some cool inventions you lemmings have made in TOTK? Provide pictures if you have them.
My favorite invention is the 2 fan 1 stick hover bike as it is almost game breaking and only costs 9 zonite.
Put a large lightbloom seed on the front and it’s perfect for tooling around the basement too.
I also added a dragon spike to the bottom of the control stick. Took some work to get it on there just right, and you need to add it last. Dragon parts and anything they are attached to despawn at much greater distances than anything else. We’re talking being able to travel a loooong way before they break or vanish. Plus, they glow, so they make your bike much easier to see from a distance. Lastly you can photo them and use the sensor to find them. So you can park your bike, explore to your heart’s content, and then always find it. It won’t survive dying or fast traveling, but otherwise it’s a great way to make your glider last as long as possible.
Well that’s proof that the real tip is deep in the comments. This is a brilliant idea and is being added next time I boot TOTK up.
I’d heard about the dragon part despawn distance a few times but utilizing the sensor+ to locate your ride is extra nice
Wow, didn’t know that about Dragon spike, going to use that, thanks!
And a great how-to on building one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq4LmYEFlHM
That was great! I just followed these instructions.
Wow, this wasn’t how I was envisioning the bike. Thanks for the video!
What stick do I have to use for that?
I believe they’re talking about a control stick. At least that’s what I’m familiar with.
Thanks!
Yup, should have been more clear!
It do be pretty op, makes traversal almost too easy. Putting the fans on the sides instead (what I like calling the green bokoblin glider) covers distance faster but is harder to maneuver. I disassemble and reassemble often to switch between the bike and glider configuration depending on my needs at any given time
I’ve never tried the side by side configuration but faster traverse sounds super useful for sky islands. Especially since switching between them would be simple. I think I’ll add it to my favorites.
If you attach a dragon scale then it won’t get despawn even when far away. (A tip from a video) If you want to go in shrine just take the scale off before enter.
Good ol “hover bike”, as most call it. It’s ludicrously useful, in large part frankly because the game nerfed most forms of flying, with balloons, wings, and those floating blocks around sky islands always disappearing after a minute or two (which bizarrely sometimes doesn’t seem long enough to reach some of the furthest away sky islands – particularly where King Gleeoks are).
Only downsides are that the hover bike will constantly rise with no means to descend and I was never able to make one that didn’t drift in one direction (requiring constant correction). I assume my fans were just ever so slightly off center or not placed on a flat enough surface or something, but I never could get it to work better).
Oh, yeah, you need to get off it and get on again, that’ll lose you a fair bit of height
You’ll learn the proper timing after a bit

It’s hard not to play the entire game using it. I try to stick to only using it for the korock transport missions and going between sky islands, so I can still get plenty of exploration done.

How do you ensure the “alignment” is perfect with the hover bike?
Whenever I make this one I’m the bike drifts to one side, even if I think I put the fans on straight.
It is great, but I had a bit of a tough time getting the balance right. Followed one of the videos and took me many tries.

The Orbital Laser Drone sounds great! I just got my first “Construct Head” yesterday. Had seen them in shrines before, but got them as item for the first time yesterday. Good timing!
I was venturing in the desert, and didn’t have anything good to stave off the heat yet. Found the tools for a vehicle, and added on a hydrant, so it would constantly spray Link with water.
I often make gliders to get around, but launching them is an issue with their high stony friction. So, I take out some pieces of meat, use an ice attack on them, and then (Don’t pick them up! They’re not Materials so you can’t drop them) weld them onto the bottom of my vehicle. Now, it essentially has a slick ice block on the bottom and can launch pretty easily.
It’s fun looking at the many giant mechs people make, but for practical Zonai combat, I’ve just made a simple autotank; using those homing tread things, with an electric horn on it. To increase its range and spread, I attached a random metal spear sideways onto its tip to make it harder for a monster to walk past it. The resulting creation is only about 9 zonaite, so I can actually make several of them for a fight.
the ‘charged charger’ from the yiga schematics is a good base to build upon. i ended up slapping spikes, stabilizer, and some homing beams on a construct head and it does a decent job with mobs.
what i wish was for something that would damage the blue-white frox quicker. i’m not creative enough to use all the tools.
I’m almost 200 hours in and haven’t used the construct heat, nor know what exactly it does 🤷. Open world freedom is good most times lol.
if an enemy is in range, it activates and look at it. if you got something attached to the head (like a beam or a flamethrower) it activates that and starts firing at what it is looking. i’ve seen some wilder applications on twitter but i stop getting how it works at some point.
Haha, yeah, game is great with this kind of things. I used it in shrine once or twice, but found the carry-able zonai device for the first time yesterday.
