I was on a small ledge on the side of a tower hiding from the lightning lol. 3 blocks of rain, basically all in game day. Still a very annoying mechanic. Oh well, will be back to the Depths shortly. Next time I'll check the forecast first before starting to climb.
It's weird to see all the same monsters now in color. I've gotten so used to only seeing all mobs in their corrupted form that the game now looks like some kid went to town with a bunch of crayons to color in the mobs. Not sure if there's any purpose to exploring Hyrule castle again, top is empty but has some nice treasures. No better weapons though and breaking point seems a kinda pointless enhancement, extra damage when it breaks. Zelda's study is still the same as well as the rest look all too familiar. I made my way to the Shrine there for some simple puzzles. Today back into the Depths.

Thanks for the tip, didn't know fans lasted that long and since now I have 11.6 battery cells it should easily get me back to the top.
The nearest Ascend tower to the original entry point (the chasm for the initial exporation quest) is a 45+ minute trek around the river walls down in the Depths. First got to go all the way South to get around the rivers. Then still have to run all the way back to Lookout landing after. I'm trying to stick to my no fast travel play style as long as I can.
The system only works fine on flat ground with plenty space. And even then the 2 axis rotation limit and snap into place mechanic is a pita. Plus I wouldn't have to build things in mid air if a balloon would last more than 60 seconds :/ But it did feel rewarding to finally make it out with a multi stage rocket balloon. At least the physics engine is simple enough to make it still go straight up with a rocket on one side only. (And of course the balloon doesn't collapse and catch fire)
