A Link Between Worlds What Items Did You Buy?

[Vanessa28]

I bought all of them. I mean come on what am I going to do with 9.999 rupees???? I used the discount on the bombs (first play), Fire Rod (HM) and Ice Rod (second play)

 

[Quietgalaxy]

I bought the fire rod first. Just because 1200 rupees is a bit expensive compared to the rest

 

[CynicalSquid]

I'm trying to buy them all because why not?

 

[Shamison]

All of dem.

That ice rod was mine for the taking.

I bought all of them. The key to save your rupees is to buy either the fire rod or ice rod as your first item. When Ravio gives you your 50% discount for your first item, both rods are the most expensive items in the shop so for me it would make sense to me to buy one of them for half the price. :3

By the time I got the ability to buy items (pretty late in the game; I know of others who have gotten it earlier, but I'm not sure what the prerequisites are), I'd amassed so many Rupees that I was able to buy all of them at once. Like most people, I bought the Fire Rod first because of how expensive it was and the discount.

I bought everything to complete my game. I thought I'd get a bonus from Ravio but alas, none D: I also bought the Hookshot discounted as that was my absolute favorite item to use!

I bought all the items as soon as I could. I purchased them in order of efficiency. I thought that since the fire and ice rods would come in handy for certain dungeons and were the most expensive that I should buy them quite early on. On my first play through I bought the bow first because I used the most, following that was the hookshot, so on and so forth. On my current play through I bought the ice rod first with the half off discount. I'm slowly buying them all asap.

I'm not sure which item I used my discount for (despite the fact I've just been playing the game in the past week or so...) but I actually dedicated plenty of time to systematically buying the items one by one as soon as I could afford to. It wasn't so much the fact that I would lose the items if I was unlucky enough to die in battle, but the fact that Mother Maiamai would only upgrade the items if I owned them (and that was really what spurred me on to make sure I found every single Maiamai - making this the first Zelda game ever that I'll 100%).

I bought all the items eventually... It took a while to raise the rupees though because I spent so much on the Cucco Ranch minigame, and that freaking con artist who I believe was in Skull Woods, but I could be wrong.

I used my discount for the Fire rod, because of the price. Then I bought the bombs immediately after because I use them the most.

I didn't view him as a con artist, since he gave you that golden bie which the bie man was very happy for and made it possible to sell more bies to him...

I'm going to try a minimalist run where I don't buy anything and only rent what's essential.

 

[Vanessa28]

In my second replay I only bought the ice and fire rod and the tornado rod

 

[Lord Vain]

Personally speaking I found a way to farm Rupees at a decent pace early on, and as such I just went ahead and bought everything as time went by.

I wish you great luck on you minimalist run! ^^ Wait what? :O

But doesn't that mean that you are going to buy all the items then?
