Wait! It's Dangerous to go Alone, take this.

DtgA is an absolutely massive mod that changes a lot of the game, we'll go over what you should know first here, visit the New Mechanics page to learn more.

  • You cannot regenerate Stamina normally anymore. Your yellow wheel now recharges your green wheel.
    • It runs out slowly, and can be charged by drinking from a divine vessel.
  • You cannot equip armor or use items until you rest at a campfire, and only for 30 seconds after.
  • You can only switch weapons, shields, or bows with the quick menus using your d-pad.
  • Your Spirit Orbs are now your Mana! They will count up to 100 when you first wake up, this is intended.
  • Your map will not work until you clear up the weather by calming Divine Beast Vah Ruta.
  • You can't climb anymore! Not until you get the climbing claws from Kakariko Village anyways.
  • The cold areas of Hopes Rise are hard to access, but yes there is a solution. Hint
  • The paraglider is now a mid-game item. Deployable paragliders can be found in chests all over Hyrule. Plan your routes.
