4 Adjust from heat, cold, and other weather effects.
5 Carefully catch insects and horses.

Pay close attention to the Stamina Gauge when scaling cliffs

If you leap while scaling a cliff, you can start quickly, but it will consume a portion of your Stamina Gauge. You can climb steadily in order to save your Stamina Gauge instead.

While climbing, use items like “Stamina Medicine” and “Stamina Skewer Grilled Mushroom” to mitigate the loss of stamina.

Beware of lightning.

When the weather changes to a “lightning” effect, take precautions.

Carefully catch insects and horses

If Link chases after a horse or an insect, both will flee immediately. You may sneak up on them by crouching and approaching them from behind.
