The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was one of the most anticipated games for 2023. As the sequel to Breath of the Wild, a lot of the same elements that came from that game have transferred to Tears of the Kingdom. Both Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are surprisingly difficult when you compare them to previous Zelda games.
But that should not deter players from trying out Tears of the Kingdom. There are ways to get stronger in Tears of the Kingdom so you are ready to take on the various bosses that are in the game. Increasing your health and stamina will go a long way in the game. But should you increase health or stamina first in Tears of the Kingdom? Let's settle this.
Is It Better To Upgrade Health Or Stamina First In Tears Of The Kingdom?
In Tears of the Kingdom, you can upgrade either your health or your stamina by completing the various Shrines that are scattered throughout the game. You will take the reward from the shrines to a Goddess Statue and you will be presented with the choice to either increase your health or your stamina.
Both are very important to upgrade but which one is better early on? If we would have to choose, we would say upgrade your stamina first in Tears of the Kingdom. There is a certain point in the main story that you will need at least two wheels of Stamina to progress. We will not say specifically why as it is a spoiler, but you definitely need more stamina to progress in the story.
So for that in itself, we would say increase your Stamina first.
In actuality, you should probably upgrade both your health and stamina at the same time so you have a more balanced experience in Tears of the Kingdom. Although there is an argument to upgrade your stamina first for story progression, newer players should definitely upgrade their health first.
Having those extra hearts will go a long way in Tears of the Kingdom. As we have previously stated, this game can be very difficult at times, especially if you end up in a tougher area than you are prepared for. But if you are used to the controls and combat, upgrading your stamina is better for the story progression and you can travel farther.
