Is there a way to make a Blood Moon happen more often?

Is there a way that I can make a blood moon happen more often? Because usually a blood moon happens every 1-2 hours. Is there a way to increase the blood moon occurence?


Solution 1:

Given that the blood moon is based on how often you kill monsters (+ some random aspects), the solution to make it spawn more frequently is to kill more monsters.

Solution 2:

There's an in-depth write-up here of how blood moons are scheduled. There are two main things you can do to make them arrive quicker.

  1. Stay in the overworld. If you're in a shrine, Divine Beast, Hyrule Castle, lost woods, or other situations where you cannot fast-travel, then a blood moon will not be triggered. Doing this you should get one every seven in-game days (2h48m non-cutscene play time).

  2. Try to induce heavy resource usage. One user reports triggering panic blood moons after cuccoo attacks. Other ways to fill up the engine's memory may include dropping many items and setting up big explosion chain-reactions.
