It only started raining when I arrived at the tower and it’s been going on for what seems like forever. Pretty sure the game does this on purpose…

    Ended up building a roof and that worked. Was that the point of the tower? Does the rain actually last forever?

      I found a nearby campfire under a roof and just slept until it stopped raining. Didn’t even think to build a roof over the thorns.

        This is what I did, and I only did that cause I messed up my long roof that I was building so just sat at the campfire till noon and it was sunny.

          Yea I thought the rain was part of the “puzzle” but figured I’d give a couple rounds of waiting at the campfire a go and it worked.

        My husband did this too. I had built the roof, so I was surprised as hell when just waiting actually worked.

      Most likely. That’s the solution I also had to use because it just wouldn’t stop raining - and there have been areas with deliberate perma-rain in BotW as well, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they reused that setup in the sequel.

        Makes sense that the rain is the puzzle, but it wasn’t immediately obvious to me since the rain started after I had already burned away a few thorns.

    I was able to take out a flame emitter, turn it on, and use ultrahand to focus it for long enough that it burned out anyway.

    All these comments saying you’re supposed to build a roof but I just waited and the rain eventually stopped.

      I think there’s a sign near by that says to build a shelter if you want a fire in the rain but the devs might’ve added something for patient players too. 😊
