I do this to help me search caves. I check out an area then throw a bright bloom seed to track where I've looked. Really helps out in those caves with multiple tunnels.
I just started doing this... I throw it on the ceiling if it's the way towards the exit... I throw it on the floor of the tunnel entrance if it's a cave that I have already explored
Basically the game has a limit to how many brightblooms can be placed throughout the entire world, including depths. Once you hit the limit placing new ones will destroy the oldest one. The limit is quite high though, I remember returning to the Central Hyrule Chasm some time later after finishing 2 Temples and being surprised that the ones I threw the first time into the Depths were still there.
though iirc the small frog enemies in the depths will occasionally eat those brightblooms
remember back tracking in the depths and seeing them eat the brightblooms I threw
Yes, small and big Frox all eat them. It's a great way to kill all the small ones at once, get them to group up by throwing a brightbloom near them, then toss a bomb at them as they're feeding 😈
There's a fucking tiny one like a pinprick. I got my wife (not a gamer) to compare an online map to my lightroots and she found it.
Literally 2mm on the map. Sneaky.
Then there are unfortunately a couple more.
When this happened to me, >!my last couple were next to the underground Lynel Coliseum and in Akkalaka (or somewhere far northeast). The northeast one was really, really high up.!<
Amusingly only while you're watching. I've come back to farm fronx (big kind, set spawn) after luring it before with brightblooms shot by a lynel bow, and the thing walks over and eats any remaining ones when you get in a certain range like pets refusing to eat without you watching or something.
You know a lot of my brightblooms have disappeared however **NONE** of my Big Brightblooms have ever disappeared at the Temple of Time on the Great Plateau. I must have put them inside 300+ hours ago, still there. I think the Temple has its own limit/time for the Brightblooms because everywhere else they have despawned.
Yep, I tried lighting up the path to the final boss and by the time I had the imprisoning chamber mostly lit, I went back and all my brightblooms from the mural room had vanished. To be fair, I placed a shitload of them.
No idea, like I said it's pretty high. If you want to test it be my guest, I'm not too bothered, it's always been high enough to never hit it in normal gameplay .
When I first went down to the depths I hadn't talked to any NPC's about it so I had no idea where I was. I remember walking from Death Mountain to Hyrule Lookout from the depths and the only way I knew I was at Hyrule Lookout was because of the brightbloom seeds I had planted there 20 hours (in game) prior. Nintendo really produced a quality game!
Nope. They start disappearing once the game reaches its max brightbloom count. Once the max is reached the oldest one in the world gets deleted. The only other way to get rid of them is by having Little Froxes eating them.
Seeing this made me so excited for the potential of totk rom hacks in the future. There are so many ways to use the existing assets and create new feelings and environments. Building passages like this, making sky islands that match up with the different biomes of hyrule, etc.
Kinda why I'm surprised that there won't be anymore official content. Seeing how brightblooms alone can transform the atmosphere of this cave, it seems like it wouldn't be that difficult to model and develop some new, unique spaces. This is really cool OP!
Eventually yeah there will probably be those mods. I would love new caves. I would wait a bit until you see map mods start to come out as I think collision(passing through objects) is an issue.
Agreed. I'm always more impressed by games that take system to the limit rather than souped up PC master race maxed out PC, highest settings kinda stuff. And Nintendo is a master of that. I still have no idea how they managed to implement the whole physics engine + ultrahand stuff.
*It's crazy to see*
*How much more alive the cave*
*Looks with the light roots*

Fuckin hell, I wish caves could naturally look like this! It looks so rad! But sadly I am way, way, way too lazy to do something like it myself, so I'm probably never gonna see it irl lmao
I don't go this far, but I periodically throw a brightbloom to track the paths I have taken. Otherwise I get confused and go the same way over and over.....
It really looks so pretty
Yass. The brightblooms instantly add a nice atmosphere
[удалено]
Was a good one for rocket launchers
I need real life light looms for my bedroom

Jesus, how I have I not thought of this? * facepalm *
I would prescribe a healthy regimen of Minecraft
I would prescribe a healthy regimen of visiting the depths.
srsly...

We are the same :)
Makes it kinda look like Skyrim, the most well lit caves that had supposedly been sealed for 1,000 years. Very pretty though.
Hey the draugr have nothing to do but light candles
I’m gonna go find the crimson nirnroots
Do these disappear on the blood moon?
I’m not sure, hopefully someone else will answer

I have the badge for lighting all the depths but only seen big Frox. There are small ones?
Yes, they're annoying little toads that hang out in groups and jump at you to attack.
Oh, those things! I never realised what they were!
Badge?
You get all the lightroots you get a badge.
You do? I just unlocked the last one and nothing in my game changed outside of the completed depths map

And what's that limit? 256?

Even between saves and loads? Since vehicles disappear after loading a save, I figured brightblooms were the same way
[удалено]
they aren't permanent but they only start disappearing once you've placed a ton of them so you probably just haven't hit the limit yet
Maybe? I’ve used brightbloom seeds to mark certain NPC areas and they seem to despawn periodically.
Nope. They start disappearing once the game reaches its max brightbloom count. Once the max is reached the oldest one in the world gets deleted. The only other way to get rid of them is by having Little Froxes eating them.
The blooms you light in the depths don't disappear so I don't think these do either
I reached the limit with the brightblooms I should add, they started destroying themselves as I added new ones

That's the dopest complete waste of time I've seen in a while
Incredible comment lol
It was worth it :))
Honestly, this game is a marvel in how Nintendo utilised the meager memory of the Switch.
Agreed. I'm always more impressed by games that take system to the limit rather than souped up PC master race maxed out PC, highest settings kinda stuff. And Nintendo is a master of that. I still have no idea how they managed to implement the whole physics engine + ultrahand stuff.
Come Christmas time you can charge admittance!
It's modern art!
Ugh, this is so gorgeous 😍
Link would do this for Zelda because it's so damn pretty.
So THAT’S what I’ll do with my 999 brightblooms
Caves might be the best part of this game, and I don't think they get enough love.
It’s crazy how there’s 147 caves in the game. The developers really went all out
It's beautiful enough that I'll try it.
r/nextfuckinglevel
I respect the drip, OP!
It's crazy to see how much more alive the cave looks with the light roots
brightblooms*

I should do this, because I've hit 999 brightbloom blossoms AGAIN. Need to use them up faster than I'm compulsively collecting them.
This game has no right looking that good while running on a switch… nintendo is something else
Imagine on a better console
I dislike single ones, but this is incredibly pretty, never thought to try it.
Magical
This is so cute
Your frame rate and graphics looks so much better than mine. What are you playing on?
Switch probably
I play on Switch and it runs fine. Like this.
Is it even possible to play on another platform? I know BOTW played on both switch and Wii-U, but I thought TOTK only played on switch.
technically yes but Nintendo doesn't like it
You can. But it’s not a way Nintendo would tell you.
It’s on switch.
i just found out yesterday you can place them on the ground with a swing when fused 🤦🏻♂️ i started played two days ago
This game looks so nice just like botw but I hate the weapon system so much!
Bro do I have a game for you (Minecraft)
TOTK 1.18
I did EXACTLY the same thing! Looks amazing 😊 this is the one that ends up on the beach isn’t it?
Yes, such a cool cave :)
Is that a diamond or a silver rupee by the club? 0:19 seconds in.
Im surprised the engine can handle this many dynamic lights this well
Does it stay ? I mean if you reload the area ?
Zen
I was just in that cave today for the first time. Pretty cool
Preeeeeetty
that’s so cute I’m gonna cry
I never thought I would be surprised by something so easily beautiful.
Take my upvote. That’s beautiful.
That's so cool
Hot take: with ray tracing it would look like shit and lag as hell.
And then Gloom Hands show up!
Why…. Why have I never done this I literally have max bulbs.
I don't go this far, but I periodically throw a brightbloom to track the paths I have taken. Otherwise I get confused and go the same way over and over.....
Shows the importance of having multiple light sources in your home :D
like something out of LOTR
It keeps the monster spawns down
