Zelda Breath of the Wild: Blood Moons

The Blood Moon in Breath of the Wilde is that happy time when all the monsters respawn in the amazing Zelda open world.

I remember the first time I experienced a Blood Moon. First, I was disappointed. It had not only taken me a while to kill the monsters after I finally left the Great Plateau, but they had taken my weapons with them. Just thinking about all those wonderful swords that – at least in the beginning – were hard to find, made me hate those Blood Moons.

This all changed.

After a few hours of playing (about 125hr), I realized Blood Moons are the best thing in the world!

Why can’t we have them every single night!?

See, I need monsters back to keep harvesting their parts. Especially the Hinox (with my favorites in the Zora Realm and outside of the Rito Village) and the Lynel (my favorites being the one in the Zora Domain and the one in the coliseum). I want those Blood Moons. I really do.

Another item that requires Blood moon to easily harvest is the Ice Keesse Wing (which respawns in the Hebra region) and then there are the monsters in the coliseum (with those wonderful 36 hit point swords and Lizalfos Tails!).

At some point in the game I had Blood Moons in the middle of the day (did that ever happened to anyone?), but now they are scarce. It’s like the game can read your needs! Scary!

I say hail the Blood Moon!

cheers!
