Hey! So in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on the Nintendo Switch, the weapon durability system is pretty much like what you saw in Breath of the Wild.

Weapons get worn out as you use them and eventually break. This means you can't just stick to one favorite weapon forever, which can be a bit frustrating but also pushes you to try out new ones. According to our research, it actually adds a fun layer of strategy since you have to be smart about managing your weapons throughout your journey.

Plus, it feels pretty rewarding when you find a new weapon or figure out how to use one before it breaks.

They've also thrown in a cool new feature called Fuse. With Fuse, you can combine different items to create new weapons. This not only helps with durability but also lets you customize weapons to better fit your play style or the particular challenge you're facing at that moment.

So yeah, while the durability system might take some getting used to, it definitely adds depth to the game and keeps combat interesting.
