Question
I was out flying around Skyloft when I discovered the bamboo cutting challenge. At first, the proprietor said I needed to get 15 cuts. I was able to get 17, and got 30 rupees as a reward. He then said I should try and get 20 cuts. He also suggested I get a longer sword, which would help me. (I'm sure that a better sword comes later in the game.)
Do I only get rupees for completing this challenge? Or is there something more meaningful I can earn? What is the maximum number of cuts I'll be asked to make?
Answer
The thresholds for prizes here are 15, 20 and 28 cuts. The highest I was able to get (with the plain Goddess Sword BTW) was 37 which was mostly luck I'd say. The Sheikah Stone nearby mentions someone setting the record at 42 43. The hardest thing about this game is that the controller isn't sensitive enough and doesn't pick up all your movements correctly which is frustrating.
It's not worth your time IMHO. For the first level, you get 30 rupees which is rather weak. The next level you get some common treasure (e.g., a Monster Horn). The last level you get a rarer treasure (e.g., a Blue Bird Feather). You might be able to get something if you beat that record but I have yet to reach it myself, even with the (long) Master Sword. Save it for later when you've done everything else in the game.
