Hearts seem more tempting because you quickly encounter enemies that hit hard, but they hit so hard that an extra heart container isn't going to be a real solution. Better armor has more benefits, although that's a lot harder to come by. Stamina not only allows you to climb more, but it also extends the time you can glide from mountain tops. So there's a benefit in going up and down. The obvious benefit from going up is that you get a better view of your surroundings (and may find one or the other goodie), the obvious benefit from gliding is that it's faster than running and not limited to terrain like a horse. You can also swim farther with more stamina, so crossing rivers without finding a bridge becomes more feasible. A stamina container doesn't extend your gauge much, but it starts paying off when you decide to explore more vertically. I get my containers in about a 2:1 ratio in favor of hearts. I don't think it's a good idea to stick exclusively with one over the other, but you have of course the freedom to do so. |
I also just realized there is a way to exchange what you have.
