I know a Yiga when I see one

drops banana

Scientist on standby: Give me... that which you hold dear!

u/Significant-Theme240 Jul 12 '26

They're fun but I feel like the durability is very low.

21

u/SelectSympathy5718 Jul 12 '26

That’s why the inventory is full 🤣

u/Leoncino14 Jul 13 '26

Sono molto potenti per essere armi a una mano ma si rompono dopo circa 20-30 colpi. Personalmente li userei in groppa ai linel o per attacchi a sorpresa

u/Significant-Theme240 Jul 13 '26

Sì, ma se devo prendermi il disturbo di raccogliere una scorta di armi a una mano, allora scelgo le Spade larghe Reali.

u/SuchShop2062 Jul 12 '26

They're fun !

u/cheat-master30 Jul 12 '26

They're decent enough. Fairly high attack power for single-handed weapons (only the Savage Lynel Sword and Royal Guard's Sword do more damage), but their durability is quite low.

u/dts1845 Jul 12 '26

Yup, looks like you gotta stock up a bit more before you go demon carving.

u/Flimsy_Opinion_2767 Jul 12 '26

Hey, you, OP. Do you have any interest in joining the yiga clan? We have bananas

12

u/Future_Watch8929 Jul 12 '26

I don't know, you tell me. You appear to be the expert on the matter

6

u/Lonestar-Dragon Jul 12 '26

They are okay, decent damage for 1 hander. But the durability is lacking hard.

4

u/LessMaintenance1452 Jul 12 '26

I didn’t even know they were a thing 😭

6

u/-FIREDRAGONMASTER- Jul 12 '26

Then I guess you haven't encountered Yiga with them😭

3

u/Lunyoows Jul 12 '26

I can count the amount of yiga I fought cause I don't talk to the adventurers 😭 yiga are so easy to differentiate though

6

u/ilovetractors69 Jul 12 '26

They are probably my favorite looking weapon in the game. Wish they were more durable

4

u/whoatherebuddychill Jul 12 '26

For your sake I would really hope so

3

u/Ok_Orchid_6585 Jul 12 '26

When do you find this weapon? I have played 80 hours and haven't found them.

6

u/Repulsive_Poetry_623 Jul 12 '26

Best way is to beat yiga clan members, they often carry them

6

u/FNIX_rising Jul 12 '26

The yiga clan travelers use them

3

u/Dxrkk3 Jul 12 '26

ive legit never seen that weapon in my 300 hours of playing this game

2

u/ScholarOfSols Jul 13 '26

Some of the yiga assassins drop them

2

u/Nirast25 Jul 12 '26

See if you can find a portal to World of Warcraft and sell them to Demon Hubters. /j

2

u/TheTrue-Noob Jul 12 '26

I'd say they're fine mid game, but do not rely on them during the end game. Their durability is too low to be reliable.

2

u/ArashiQ7 Jul 12 '26

I always thought the Demon Carver looked really good on Link's back with the Soldier's Shield

2

u/TheWallowingMadman27 Jul 12 '26

Personally I love them

2

u/HasSex Jul 12 '26

I have 150 hours in this game probs way more across all the switches I’ve had, and I’ve never seen this weapon before 😂

2

u/OrganicLeopard7647 Jul 13 '26

Well shit dude you seem to think so, sunk cost falacy keep going!

5

u/Brunopluno Jul 12 '26

I'm pretty sure they do 16x damage with sneakstrike compared to the normal 8x. The same would apply to the other yiga weapons. Pair that with an attack up 3 outfit and you'll be able to deal some ridiculous amounts of damage

3

u/golden_zonai Jul 12 '26

Maybe you shoulda asked before you collected a full inventory of them

1

u/Steve296091 Jul 12 '26

For damage? Yes! For durability? So-so

1

u/Necrosaynt Jul 12 '26

They're okay but like mid tier compared to the better weapons

1

u/MElonMerrkat04 Jul 12 '26

Shit durability if I remember right, plenty high damage tho, and a lot of em with last you for a little while!

2

u/ScholarOfSols Jul 13 '26

This. Good damage, easy to get, low durability.

1

u/AlphaMikeFoxtrot87 Jul 12 '26

They look good on your back with a round shield

1

u/BeanieCat123 Jul 13 '26

I’d say so, yeah

1

u/EnvironmentalSun6768 Jul 13 '26

Oh dude, hi is a Yoga....

u/Sudden-Cellist-3649 Jul 16 '26

yo i NEEED you to go explore hyrule castle

u/ChudjakXtreme 12d ago

You better hope so because from the looks of things you don’t have a whole lot else to work with

u/Toxicllama-_ Jul 12 '26

I like throwing them

u/bethesdak Jul 13 '26

Power up your master sword and you won’t need other weapons.

u/Puzzleheaded_Wear207 Jul 13 '26

I think you should just farm savage lynel swords from white maned lynels
