No Loot Boxes

A mod for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild that guarantees exclusive items from amiibo chests.

What

No Loot Boxes ensures that amiibo chests will always contain an exclusive item if you would normally be eligible for one. For example, if you use the Sheik amiibo, then the amiibo chest is guaranteed to contain Sheik's Mask.

Why

I've always felt like using amiibo in Breath of the Wild is like receiving loot boxes in other games. It's like playing the lottery where the ticket price is your time and patience and the reward is that you can finally stop grinding for the Twilight Bow. I wanted to bypass all that and just get the exclusive amiibo items without the grind.

How

This mod alters the drop tables for amiibo so that all non-zero probabilities of receiving an exclusive item are raised to 100%. In other words, if you're at a point in the game where you could receive an exclusive item from an amiibo, then you will.

This mod does not give you exclusive items that are normally locked behind progression requirements, however. For example, in order to have a chance at receiving the Twilight Bow from the Smash Bros. Zelda amiibo, you have to have completed at least one Divine Beast. With this mod, you still have to complete at least one Divine Beast, but you're guarateed to get the Twilight Bow each time you use the amiibo after that.

Drop Tables

These are the new amiibo drop tables as updated by this mod. "Plateau" means that you are still on the Great Plateau and have not received the paraglider. "Paraglider" means you have received the paraglider but have not completed any Divine Beasts. "Divine Beast" means you have completed at least one Divine Beast. If no probability is listed, then you will not receive that exclusive item until you have met the progression requirement.
