I've only got the one in the Northwest to go, and though I wasn't killed at that tower, it was by far the worst. It was really nothing but dumb luck and having to mix assloads of electrical elixirs and food. Also lost almost all of my weaponry.

Thought for sure there would be poes with fire rods and fire keese there to great me. At Eldin, but nope.

i had 6 or 7 hearts and at least 2 stamina upgrades and it was a pain in the arse. electrical currents travel through water...who knew?

i happened upon it, otherwise i would've made an elixir or food that granted me resistance as well as some food for refilling hearts

There was fortunately a pot near the shore, but I had to wait 15 minutes for a rain storm to pass so I could light that damn fire. Then I made my food and elixirs and conquered that tower. I was shocked (no pun intended) that I made it to the top.

i shouldn't say this since i want as much as i can get for it, but if you jumped the bid from $56 to $160...you're doing it wrong

i think it's awesome because conventional wisdom would dictate it being one of the easiest in the game given the location, and it's one of the hardest

i love this game

it's at $162.50, but one user bid $160.00 when the highest bid was $56.00

my wife is an ebay expert of sorts and it's her belief that not bidding at all until the last second is the way to go. if someone has an auto bid you'll see it anyways in the bid history

I took at the Highland Ridge tower today by killing just one electric poe and two of the swimming electric Lizalfos. Took a bunch of arrows, but I didn't even require electric resistance. With those three out of the way, I successfully climbed without being noticed at that point.I also took the central tower somehow without getting blasted off the tower by any Guardians

i rushed into it so all i saw were the poes (and not the huge lizard monsters swimming in the water)and i didn't know they were shooting electricity for sure. this was also before the game had fully reinforced the concept that physics in this game are a little more realistic

if a big concrete ball rolls over you, you die

if a metal crate falls on top of you, you die

if you're swimming in water and someone shoots a ton of electricity into the water...you die hard, and not in the bruce willis kind of way, moreso the kennedy family type of way

i lured the lizards out and killed them, then killed a poe and avoided the others by climbing up and over to constantly avoid the slow moving electricity

those electricity lizards will still frick you up late into the game.

I also got incredibly unlucky with thunder storms when I started climbing up it. So I had to take off my weapons with only a Deku Leaf to protect myself. The weather clearly didn't want me there and wanted me to head to Karkariko, which I wasn't doing. Also didn't know that the lizards were at the bottom of it, which caught the attention of the Poes I didn't kill.

The struggle with the Central Hyrule Tower is just getting up to it. Once you're there, so long as you're quick and patient, you got it. Was killed twice getting up to it, but I was good from there.

it rains a lot more in the central hyrule and the surrounding parts of other areas.

which made finding the memory locations with the castle as the central point of reference a huge pain in the arse.

I spent probably a solid hour walking west of the Dueling Peaks trying to find the memory due to there being a frickING THUNDERSTORM the entire time I was in the area

visibility was limited. everytime I turned around to gauge how far away I was, clouds everywhere

How does that work anyways? Do you have to look at the picture when you think you've gotten to the right spot? Or does it automtically come up when you get tot he spot?
