The Future of Hyrule Tips and Strategies

Blight Ganons Use the Same Attacks

Since you've already encountered these four Ganons, you'll easily predict their moves and the right dodge timing.

Wait for an opening (weak-point gauge) before attacking then back away to dodge their next attacks. Don't forget to follow the rune prompts to interrupt their attacks, too.

How to Beat Harbinger Ganon

Dodge When a Weapon Glows

Glowing weapons.jpg

One thing to take note of to make this fight easier is to pay attention to the Guardian Weapons that it wields. When it's about to strike, the weapon that it will use will glow differently. Prepare to dodge sidewards when this happens and aim for a Flurry Rush.

How to Perform a Flurry Rush

Avoid the Bullet Rain

Barrage.jpg

When the Harbinger Ganon withdraws its weapons, it will unleash beams around it and fire it upward. Quickly back away and start running around as the beams will rain down while tracking your movement.

How to Beat Astor

Take Out Hollow Link First

Hollow Link.jpg

While it looks intimidating, Hollow Link won't do much and will only act as a distraction. Do not lock on either of them so you can see both their movements and focus on removing Hollow Link first.

Astor Uses the Same Attacks

Astor will also use the same attacks from you first battle back at the Korok Forest except the part where he shields himself and summon Hollows of the four other Champions.

Watch out for attack markers on the ground and run around to dodge his orb attacks until you find an opening.

How to Beat Calamity Ganon

Invulnerable at the Start

Vulnerable Ganon.jpg

When the battle starts, do not engage him right away and just run around while dodging his attacks. Calamity Ganon is invincible during the first part so save your energy (especially special attacks) for now.

After a few dialogues and a cutscene, Calamity Ganon will be vulnerable and the real battle starts.

Wait for Rune Prompts

Calamity rune prompts.jpg

Calamity Ganon hits fast and hits hard. You can play safe by running around while you wait for him to attack and expose his weak-point gauge. When this happens, hit him as much as you can before he resumes attacking.

To make things easier, interrupt his strongest attacks by following the rune prompts. This will deal significant amount of damage to his gauge and stagger him for a while.

Same Strategy for Second Phase

Same strat as first phase.jpg

During the second phase, Calamity Ganon will pretty much use the same attack pattern. You can also use the same strategy from earlier (dodge and attack) while also following the rune prompts.

Sealing Calamity Ganon

Sealing Ganon.jpg

After bringing him down to critical health level, he will grow wings and launch an attack that is difficult to avoid. If you're confident with your dodging skills, you can perfect dodge this attack or if not, use the Remote Bomb rune for its iframe.

When Calamity Ganon's health is fully depleted, go all out on his last weak-point gauge and you will eventually be prompted to seal Calamity Ganon.

The third Korok seed should say "exit east" instead of "exit west."
