Breath of the Wild What to use spirit orbs on - hearts or stamina

[GrooseIsLoose]

You can choose anything you feel like you won't regret it later.

Spoiler

you'd be able to inter convert stamina and life later

I went for the hearts. Stamina is less important. I mainly used it for climbing mountains.

When you'll obtain Revali's gale it makes climbing a lot easier and saves you a lot of stamina when climbing large mountains. And the climbing armor makes it also easier especially fully upgraded

But having max hearts isnt that useful, you only want to not being one-shotted, then you can recover all your health with food

It depends on what people want. To me hearts are more useful than stamina. The fact is that you can't have both fully upgraded. It's either hearts or stamina and I've chosen hearts because I find stamina less important

Its up to the indivdual player. I use it mostly for hearts for two reasons.

1) Stamina pisses me off. I use some for stamina because some of those towers are taaaall. And because its safer to stay on the cliffs on one's first time to Goron City.

2) Enemies hit harder for the first time in I don't know how long.

if you don't upgrade stamina you will need to find some other way to increase your stamina through eating a ton of food because otherwise you can't catch animals (like the satori mountain event) or climb up towers (the gerudo tower, I think?) or get to certain shrines without a massive headache
which you can also just do to increase your hearts so stamina wins out every time
