Zelda Breath of the Wild questions regarding rupees, armor and ancient gear

Cook 5 meats at a time, then sell them. I think they sell for around 200 rupees each. It's tedious as Hell, but it keeps you from selling all your jewels that you'll need for upgrades.

Even still, farm those Stone whatchamacallits. Especially the fire ones in the Goron area. They drop a ton of gems you can sell for big bucks.

Guardians drop ancient cores. Not a high rate, but they do. Try farming them. You can also purchase them from a couple NPCs. I know one was a traveling merchant, but don't remember exactly where. Other than finding them in some chests, that's about it as far as I remember. Happy hunting.

Also, other than treasure chests, where do you get ancient cores? I've whipped a ton of guardians and they never drop cores.

Not enough.

TBH by the time I got to the end game 10K rupees came pretty easy. Fallen stars took forever to farm.

How many hours have you put into the game?

Yeah, mining jewels on Death Mountain is a good idea.

I just farmed the bowling game. This trick didn't work every single time for me but it did about 80% of the time. I'd just put something on TV in the background and play in handheld mode while doing this.

You get 300 rupees per a strike and each strike takes about 1 - 2 min. Once you get the hang of it, you can probably get to your 10K in 30 - 40 min.

I just sell diamonds. Nothing uses them, I don't think.

Well you need them to repair the champions weapons when they break. But ya just farm luminous stones, give them to the Zora and sell some diamonds he gives you.

Dude you just saved me a hell of a lot of frustration.

I googled the bowling thing after Rand's post and the first one that came up had you putting your right foot on a rock, lining up the Sheika sensor with the totem pole, then barely touching forward on the left joystick and finally throwing the damn thing. Needless to say it was a pain in the arse and it worked maybe 25% of the time.

I tried your way and I got a strike 75% of the time.

are y'all talking about the snowball downhill bowling thing up in the mountains? I haven't picked up the game since the summer so my memory is a bit fuzzy.

Fastest way to get rupees by far (plus 30 min buffs for cooking):
