#just stumbled across it and then gave that Sheikah kid a shock

So here’s a stupid Tears of the Kingdom story.

The first geoglyph I activated was by accident, without speaking to Impa. I’d fallen off a sky island (not my fault, joycon drift) and decided to make the best of it by gliding to something that looked interesting. Noticed there was a teardrop pattern all over it, but only one was solid green. Thought I’d investigate that, maybe it was hiding a Korok. Got a big surprise!

So. I assumed that was how you needed to activate every geoglyph. Glide right down from the sky and land on that precise spot, without touching the ground in between. I DID THIS FOR THE NEXT SEVEN GEOGLYPHS I FOUND.

SEVEN. GOING THROUGH HEAPS OF STAMINA FOOD AND SPAMMING GUSTS. BEFORE REALISING YOU CAN JUST STROLL OVER TO THEM ON THE GROUND AND STAND ON THE RIGHT SPOT.

Also, after jumping down wells without ladders, I kept getting out by warping to shrines. Finally figured out you can just ASCEND. That’s a PSA to anyone else who didn’t think of it, but I suspect that not one other soul has my insane geoglyph problem.
