I'm pretty sure I was talking about the Muwo Jeem Shrine near the Hateno Research Facility ... which is one of the first areas you go to the in the story. I got to the Hateno Village in only a few hours, and that's including a lot of time fucking around and not doing the story. It's a few minutes walk from the village, but it's pretty close and honestly I felt like it was a deliberate point of interest from where you stand in the research facility (it sticks out like a sore thumb because it's like a big branch formation sticking out at the sea). There you go. Either way, whether you like the example or not the point still stands. |
I think I know which one you mean.
It wasn’t directly on the most common path but it was a tempting area to go to. And it’s early in the game. To be fair I had a hard time with that shrine as well, and kind of dreaded every shrine that was named ‘Test of Strength’ afterwards. Outside, a bit downhill, there were Bokoblins carrying ‘Knight’s Broadswords’ though, which are pretty good weapons, and I had to go back outside to harvest multiple of them a couple of times. In the end though after some tries I beat it.
Later on, especially after you find the Master Sword, even these Major Tests of Strength aren’t that much of a problem anymore.
