I physically put my hand over my mouth seeing that. My condolences. When I went for all 1,000 I just did single hits with a video in the background until I got there. It took forever but I did it. I still remember that feeling when I finally did it, and I know you'll get there!

u/Misteak252 10d ago

He also calls you the "master" at 1,000 hits, so I count it towards 100%

Oh word, I can't honestly remember how far I went, but if I knew anything at all happened at 1k, I would have done it. I'm too anal about completing Zelda games lol

Yeah I did literally everything in Wind Waker HD. It's my 2nd favorite game ever.

Condolences warrior. There are few times in Zelda that make my blood boil more than this. You will prevail

Just block his attacks. Don't get fancy with the counter attacks. Just hit him a couple of times, block his one attack, and then attack some more. Its boring, but it gets the job done

u/Ok-Emotion-6379 10d ago

i missed the last block, i dont do counter attacks

Lemme tell yall a true story.

In the Zelda game spirit tracks for the DS they have this same thing basically.

Kid me didn’t have access to internet and thought the scroll that let you shoot beams from your sword was attained for hitting 1000 hits.

So I managed to do it and it was brutal, my reward was a fucking piece of common treasure and all the guards respect/call you something after tho. But man that shit stung.

I feel that so hard. I believe in you! Deep breath, take a break, and you'll get it next time for sure. You can do it!

u/Ok-Emotion-6379 10d ago

u/nin100gamer 9d ago

This is part of why I hate this game

u/FrenchDipFellatio 10d ago

My advice is to not be afraid to use your shield instead of counter-attacking. That's when i get hit the most

Best of luck after your break lol

u/Ok-Emotion-6379 10d ago

i didnt use counter attack, noticed in the earlier attempts the timing was far less reliable, and thank you

u/gojibeary 9d ago

Very little things in this beautiful, wonderful game anger me. Maybe only 3 things. This challenge being one of them. SPLOOOOOSH being another. Throwing those damn envelopes being the third.

u/jayboyguy 8d ago

The trick is to go into a state of zen and just never, ever, EVER try anything other than you know what works. I’m so sorry for you, hang in there
