The main useful effect from a Blood Moon is that cooking meals while malice specks are in the air, from 23:30 on, during a blood moon will result in an automatic critical, improving the results a lot. The [[Shrine Quest]] [[Under a Red Moon]] also requires a blood moon to complete.

A blood moon can be delayed by entering a shrine or Hyrule Castle before the cutscene triggers, but the game will continue to trigger a blood moon every night thereafter until one can finally occur. If delayed too long, a so-called "panic blood moon" may happen, where the system's free memory will fall below 10%, triggering a blood moon regardless of the game state to reset the game world and thus free system memory.
